Band 6+: You have just read an article in a national newspaper which claims that town centres in your country all look very similar to each other. You don't fully agree with this opinion. Write a letter to the editor of the newspaper. In your letter • say which points in the article you agree with • explain ways in which your town centre is different from most other town centres • offer to give a guided tour of your town to the writer of the article

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing this letter about a recent article published in your newspaper which explains all towns and cities in our country are alike.

To commence with, I agree, that it is a valid view if we consider one city, but I find myself in partial disagreement with the notion that all town centers across our country bear an indistinguishable resemblance.

However, all the town centers, though, have unique characteristics. For example, most of the buildings in New Delhi are historic and showcase the architectural design of the Mughal Empire. Despite their narrowness, the streets here are constantly packed with people. Despite the lack of accessible parking, people park their cars in the neighboring neighborhoods. People travel from across the country to buy products at deep discounts.

Thank you for considering my perspective on this matter. I think we can encourage a deeper understanding of the diverse and unique town centers that make up our country by highlighting their uniqueness and diversity.

I look forward to hearing from you at the earliest. Yours faithfully,
