Dear Sir/Madam,

Subject: Request for a community center

I am writing to request the establishment of a community center in our neighborhood. I am a resident of the area and a member of the local youth association.

Our neighborhood lacks a space where people can gather, learn, and socialize. A community center would provide a place for youth activities, adult education classes, and community events. This would greatly benefit our community and strengthen social bonds.

We would be grateful if you could consider this request. We are ready to help with the project and contribute to its success.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Yours faithfully,
[Your Name]
Resident of Casablanca

Citizenship — Plan, write, improve

Original practice material · explained answers · no official-exam attribution

Writing task

Suggest a responsible community activity. Plan your answer before writing. State the main idea, explain it and support it with a relevant example. Keep the details realistic and the language respectful. This is an original practice prompt, not an official examination task.

A useful plan

Opening: introduce the issue. Development: give a reason or explain an event, then illustrate it. Ending: answer the question or draw a reasonable conclusion. For a narrative, use chronological order; for an opinion, use logical connections. Follow any word limit specified by your teacher.

Practise and explain your answer

01How will you improve your first draft?
Check whether it answers the actual question. Remove repetitions, add an example and correct verb forms and linking words.
02What makes an example convincing?
It is specific, relevant to the main idea and explained. It should not be an unsupported statistic or an invented quotation.
