Dear Swan,

How is it going? I am writing to ask for any apology for the guide book I took from you last friday, as it has been completely damaged.

You would probably remember, I had requested for the gudie book for my travel to blue mountain as it had crucial information regarding the toursim destinations around the city. However, during the sking the book got drawn into the pond.

I had carried your travel guide with me on my bagpack. As, I was sking downhill, I got stepped into black ice. After that, I couldn’t balance myself and slided all the way to the bottom. Athough I manage to graps a tree’s root and prevented myself from falling further, I couldn’t protect my bag. It fell down into the lake. Your guide book along with a pair of my jeans got drown. I managed to bring the bag out with the help of life guards nearby. I figured out that your book was completely damage. All the papers are tore down and it isn’t readable.

I will be happy to buy a brand new guide book of same kind or else I can provide you the full re-fund of the amount you paid for the book. I am ready to offer with the compansiasion whichever you like. Why don’t we meet for a coffee and discuss further?

Leave me a message whenever you are free.

Best,

Nimesh

Task Response

8
The letter appropriately addresses all parts of the task, including an apology, explanation, and offer of compensation. The explanation is clear and detailed. While there are a few minor language errors, they do not significantly detract from the overall message. To improve, focus on refining sentence structure and word choice for greater clarity and accuracy.

Coherence & Cohesion

5
The letter is generally coherent, but the organization could be improved. Consider grouping related ideas into paragraphs more effectively. For example, the explanation of how the damage occurred could be more concise and focused. Transition words could also be used more effectively to link ideas and improve the flow.

Lexical Resource

5
The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but there's room for improvement. Using more precise and varied language could enhance the letter. For example, instead of 'completely damaged,' you could use 'irreparably damaged' or 'ruined.' Also, be mindful of spelling errors like 'gudie' and 'toursim.' Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

5
The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Pay attention to verb tense consistency (e.g., 'got drawn' should be 'was drawn'), subject-verb agreement, and correct article usage. Sentence structure can also be improved for better flow and clarity. For example, the sentence 'As, I was sking downhill, I got stepped into black ice' is awkward and can be rephrased.
