 To whom it may concern:

I am writing this letter to complain regarding the poor service of bus Route number C23, that comes from Beach street  to Main street. Almost every day, a bus is more than 15 minutes late, consistently late, although the city busses used to come on time and they are providing the service every ten minutes.  However, some busses never stop at my bus stop. Therefore, it makes people frustrated and angry, especially people who are punctual about their work time. Meanwhile, many people are staying in the long waiting lane every morning.

Consequently, I would like you to take some effective actions to overcome this problem. Firstly, could you please increase the number of busses in the busy hours? The other change I suggest is that it would be much better if you talk  with your drivers to follow the schedule given by the company more careful.

I believed, these  changes will make the transport facilities better than, they are now.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you whether you will be able to solve this problem.

Sincerely,

Yana Bobrova

Food and food habits.

Food and food habits are different around the world. Today, I had a chance to talk with two nice women from Vietnam and Poland. We had a discussion with Dorotty about what is a typical dinner for people in her country. She described her country as a colorful country with a rich variety of ingredients that people use to prepare their dinner. The set of ingredients depends on the part of the country where people live such as south, north and middle of the country. Usually, the people use a small pieces food and mix them together, for example: vegetables, rice and fish or meat. Afterwards, I talked with Maria from Poland. She thinks that she is a good cook, although she doesn’t have enough time to cook now as she did before. Perhaps when she is cooking, she prefers to cook Mediterranean cuisine. Her favorite food is broccoli salad with her own seasoning. Finally, if you ask me how many people are overweight in my country, I would say not a lot. The people in Russia, especially young don’t really think about what they usually eat, but they try to keep themselves away from  fast food places. They do a lot of activities outside such as play games, do yoga and just goof-off and enjoy their time walking. As a result, the people all over of the world enjoy food and they try to eat more healthy food them junk food. That is a good point to control our meal and lifestyle which helps to prevent some health problem in the future.
