town. However, the meal and the service
were terrible. The restaurant manager was
not available to solve the problem, so you
left without a resolution.
In about 150-200 words, write an email to the restaurant’s
manager explaining your experience. Your email should do
the following things:

 State what problems you had with the food you ordered.
 Complain about the service.
 Describe how you want the restaurant to resolve the problem to your
satisfaction.

Use your time wisely when you are writing your
email message. You may finish writing the message
before the time is up, nut go back and make it
better by carefully looking at your tone, content,
phrasing, and word choice. It takes time to craft
effective sentences and paragraphs. The more
effective your writing is, the higher your score will
be.
