Dear Daddy,
Our class is going on a one-day picnic to Lonavala on 19 March, and I was wondering if you could allow me to go as well. We will be visiting the wax museum, Narayanidham, Dukes Nose, and some dams. The supervisor has allowed us to carry snack items of our choice too. We have been asked
to carry warm clothing and essential medicines for the trip.

The contribution for the picnic is Rs 500 per student. If you don’t mind me going on the trip, could you please send across the money as soon as possible? Also, if Mother could prepare some of my favourite snack items, I will be able to enjoy them with my friends at the picnic.

I have included a copy of the notice for the other details of the picnic. I will be waiting for your reply! Give my regards to everyone in the family. I miss you all!

Your loving son,
Jatin

The G (N) and (S) wards in the city will experience 30% water cut from Tuesday until Sunday night this week, as major repair work will be carried out of pipelines in Dadar and nearby areas. As our society is a part of the (S) wards, I request you to take necessary measures to share this

Dear Mohan
It was lovely to get your letter and to hear the good news that you are going trekking with your friends. You (ought to/ would/ should) have a break after your exams! You ask me what you (can/ should. will) take. Well, you (might/ can't/ mustn't) fit everything in a backpack so you must be selective. You (will/ can/ must) take at least one sweater because it (ought to/ should/ can) get very cold in the mountains. You (needn't/ could/ should) pack a gas stove
because there (could/ may/ will) be plenty of firewood from dead trees.
I'm sure you will have a wonderful time but I (may/ would/ should) give you a word of warning. Don't get stuck in the Lak:i Pass at night. Once you're there you (won't be able to/ can't be able to/ not to able to) get down and it's very dangerous at night. By the way, you (should/ should have to/ should have) told me earlier that you were going and I (should have/ would have/ will have) given you my walking boots!
Anyway, look after yourself and enjoy your holiday.
