Dear Sir/ Madam,
I would suggest that your company should tell your drivers to clear up all the
trash on the ground before leaving.
I am writing to you about the short stop of your trucks around my house on
their way to the north.
I look forward to hearing from you and seeing good response from your company.
When the trucks of your company have a short break on the streets around my
house, the drivers have left lots of garbage on the ground after their
refreshment. When the trucks leave the place, the ground is covered with trash
and a few minutes later there is smell and flies.
Your faithfully,

These days, many people begin to catch fish in the lake behind your house.
What makes you worried most is they use electricity to catch fish
A lot of small fish died and floated on the water surface.
Other animals such as frogs, toads and even birds also died from electricity shock waves
You think that local authorities should prohibit and fine heavily anyone catching fish in this way
II. Writing:
1. Situation:
Dear Mr. President,
I am writing to you about the catching of fish of many people in the lake behind my house.

I am very worried because they use electricity to catch fish. After a short time they left the lake, a lot of small fish died and floated on the water surface. Other animals such as frogs, toads and even birds also died from electric shock waves.

I would suggest the local authorities should prohibit and fine heavily anyone using this way of catching fish.

I look forward to hearing from you and seeing the protection of environment from the local authority.
Sincerely,
