Letters to the editor making suggestions
Letters to the editor making suggestions are pieces of writing which appear in newspapers or magazines. They express the writertasks ideas concerning issues of public interest at local, national and even international levels, e.g. improving community facilities, health issues, etc Letters to the editor are often written in direct response to a published article or news item and are usually formal in style. They include:
a formal greeting (Dear Sir/Madam, Dear Editor, Sir),
an introduction in which we refer to the article/ news item we are responding to (when applicable), say when and where we read it. state our reason for writing (to make suggestions on a given topic), and briefly give our opinion.
at least two main body paragraphs, one for each suggestion and the possible results/consequences.
a conclusion which summarises our opinion/ restates the topic,
a formal ending (Yours faithfully, + your full name). Letters to the editor making suggestions are characterised by:
formal vocabulary & some longer sentences (to view of the widespread extent of the problem, security systems should be upgraded frequently as a precaution)
formal linking words to join ideas (Furthermore, Nevertheless. For this reason etc)
the use of full verb forms (It is important that we raise public awareness of this issue.)
a mild impersonal style that avoids colloquial expressions or strong personal feelings (Another point to keep in mind is that security systems need regular updating)

All things considered.
You have just read an article in your local newspaper The Daily Chronicle about people who have had their computers hacked. Write a letter in response, suggesting ways that you can protect yourself (120-180 words).
Dear Sir/Madam,
Further to your article in todaytasks issue of The Daily Chronicle about cyber hacking, I would like to express my concern about this issue. Most of us are familiar with firewall and anti-virus protection. However, there are one or two other suggestions which li hope readers may find helpful formal linking word
First of all, it is important for PC users to keep their security programs up-to-date. You should upgrade them frequently and regularly to ensure you have the latest versions of security software. These are often free over the Internet. As a result, your chances of being hacked will be reduced.
Another point to keep in mind is to change your personal password from time to time. Do this regularly, say, every 90 days, to keep your PC access secure. Consequently, you will make it more difficult for hackers to break into your account.
To conclude, cyber hacking can pose a serious security threat to information systems. Nevertheless, I believe a few simple suggestions like the ones above can considerably reduce our risk of a cyber attack.
Yours faithfully,
Edwina Goodwin
