Composition : Informal Letter - SS1 English Past Questions and Answers - page 1

Dear Dad,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you today to ask for your help. I have been staying with my brother for some time now, but I have come to the conclusion that I can no longer live with him.

There are a few reasons for this. First, my brother and I have very different lifestyles. He is very outgoing and social, while I am more introverted and prefer to stay home. This has led to a lot of conflict between us.

Second, my brother is very controlling. He always wants to know where I am going and what I am doing. He also tries to dictate my friends and my interests. This has made me feel like I am not my own person.

Third, my brother is very critical of me. He is always pointing out my flaws and making me feel bad about myself. This has made me feel very insecure and unhappy.

I know that you love my brother and that you want me to have a good relationship with him. However, I believe that it is in my best interest to move back home with you. I know that I will be happier and more comfortable living with you.

I would be grateful if you would please consider my request. I know that it is a lot to ask, but I believe that it is the best thing for me.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Love,

Dear Uncle,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you today to ask for your sponsorship for my education. I have recently been accepted to the prestigious University of Lagos, and I am incredibly excited about this opportunity. However, I know that my family cannot afford to pay for my tuition and living expenses.

I know that you are a wealthy man, and I am asking you to please consider sponsoring my education. I promise that I will work hard and make you proud. I have always been a good student, and I am confident that I can succeed in college. I am also a hard worker, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to get a good education.

I believe that a college education is the best way for me to achieve my goals. I want to make a difference in the world, and I believe that a college education will give me the tools I need to do that. I also want to be a role model for my younger siblings. I want them to know that they can achieve anything they set their minds to, as long as they are willing to work hard.

I know that this is a big ask, but I am hoping that you will consider my request. I would be eternally grateful for your help.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
