Dear Mr. Edit

I am writing this latter to send my opinion, I have read an article in a national newspaper about town center in the country.

Actually your article not bad about building the town centre, I agree about that because you send news by fact in the situation is real, clean at town park is important and people can hang out at there for just drinking coffee together with their friend, that is I am very happy when I read your article.

Especially I like the building such as temple in town centre and many a lot visiting for holiday or learn about story the temple. Beside that I enjoyed shopping at the town because the supermarket near by temple at townn centre and the place more clean than at different town center.

I hope you can change the style the town centre to more modern such as add ATM mechines at the town centre.

As result you achieved my latter and my opinion I hope you can answer this latter. Thank you for the time for read this latter.

Kind regards,

Aip Ripaldi

Task Response

The letter generally addresses the requirements of the task, but there are some issues with clarity and relevance. The points of agreement are somewhat vague, and the explanation of how the town center differs could be more specific and detailed. The offer of a guided tour is present, but the overall response lacks depth and precision. To improve, focus on providing concrete examples and elaborating on your points to make them more convincing and relevant to the task.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter's organization is weak, making it difficult to follow the main points. Paragraphing is inconsistent, and transitions between ideas are abrupt. To improve coherence, use clear topic sentences for each paragraph and ensure a logical flow of ideas. Consider using cohesive devices like 'however,' 'furthermore,' and 'in addition' to link sentences and paragraphs more effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is basic and repetitive, lacking the range needed to express ideas precisely. There are instances of incorrect word choice (e.g., 'latter' instead of 'letter,' 'send my opinion'). To enhance lexical resource, try to use synonyms and a wider variety of vocabulary related to the topic. Focus on learning and using more specific and descriptive words.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains frequent grammatical errors, including incorrect verb tenses, subject-verb agreement issues, and awkward sentence structures. Punctuation is also used inconsistently. To improve grammatical accuracy, review basic grammar rules and practice constructing a variety of sentence types. Focus on proofreading carefully to identify and correct errors.
