Email 2

Đề bài

Write an email to the manager (120–150 words).

Bài mẫu

Dear Club Manager,

I am writing to share my opinion about the proposal to demolish old buildings and replace them with modern blocks. While I understand that maintaining old buildings can be expensive and inefficient, I believe that completely removing them is not the best solution.

Old buildings often have historical and cultural value that represents the identity of a city. Instead of demolishing them, I suggest renovating and repurposing them for modern use such as cafés, community centers, or museums. This approach can preserve cultural heritage while still making practical use of the space.

In addition, modern buildings can still be developed in other available areas without destroying historical sites. A balanced approach would be more sustainable and beneficial for both current residents and future generations.

I hope the club considers these ideas in the discussion.
