Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to you regarding an important documents I have lost when I was traveled by public transport.

Firstly, I have forget my black coloured leather bag next week in a public bus. In this bag I have stored my valuable documents such as my qualification certificates , bank cards and driving licence.

Furthermore, last Friday, I take a bus from my office to home. I picked a document bag me and after setting on the bus , I placed a bag near the seat. The bus was full so ,when I reached my stop I forgot my bag on bus. So, when I reached my home I realised that I have forgot my bag on bus.

Lastly, I am requesting you to please my solve this problem as soon as possible. I have send all the details of bag and documents by mail to your department. If you have found it please send me my bag on my home because these items are very important for me.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Manjinder Kaur

Task Response

7
The letter adequately addresses the task by describing the lost document, explaining the circumstances of the loss, and suggesting a course of action for the lost and found department. There are some minor lapses in clarity and accuracy, particularly in grammar and word choice, but the overall message is clear. To improve, focus on using more precise language and proofreading for grammatical errors.

Coherence & Cohesion

4
The letter's organization is somewhat unclear, and the sequence of events is not always easy to follow. To improve coherence, focus on creating a clearer narrative structure. Use transitional phrases to connect ideas and ensure each paragraph has a distinct focus. For example, start by clearly stating the purpose of the letter, then describe the document, the circumstances of the loss, and finally, your request.

Lexical Resource

4
The vocabulary used is basic and sometimes inaccurate ('forget' instead of 'left'). To enhance lexical resource, try to use more precise and varied vocabulary related to describing lost items and making requests. For example, instead of 'solve this problem,' you could say 'assist me in recovering my bag.' Also, ensure that the vocabulary you use is appropriate for a formal letter. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

3
The letter contains several grammatical errors, including incorrect verb tenses, subject-verb agreement issues, and awkward phrasing. For example, 'I have forget' should be 'I forgot,' and 'I take a bus' should be 'I took a bus.' Focus on using correct verb tenses and sentence structures. Proofread carefully to identify and correct errors. Consider using simpler sentence structures to avoid errors while aiming for more complex sentences.
