Пример
Report - Model question 1
TASK
Your English teacher has asked you to write a report on where people can eat out in your area. You should include the views of visitors and local people, comment on any recent trends and dissatisfaction and make a recommendation.
Write your report in 140-190 words in an appropriate style.
The main aim/objective/purpose of this report is to present information about local eating places, visitors’ comments, trends and recommendations to improve this facility. To prepare for this report, I visited three of the most popular restaurants and asked people’s opinion of the service.
Eating places
There are a number of modern restaurants in the area which serve fresh meal for breakfast, lunch and dinner in town. Some of them present special menu, which includes a great variety of sea food, meat, pottery and other products. The restaurants are popular among the people of different age groups, except little children.
Trends
It was reported that in recent years most of the restaurants had extended their hours, with most open until midnight.
Concerns
According to the people’s opinion, there are several concerns which should be taken into consideration. Firstly, prices are too high compared to the other nearby restaurants. Consequently, there are no many visitors and production is decreasing. Secondly, almost all the meal, presented in the menu, contains spicy ingredients which is not desirable for children. As a result, people are not able to go out with their families.
Recommendations
Taking all the factors mentioned into account, I would recommend the following steps to progress the state:
1. Reduction of the prices.
By reducing the prices, the restaurants are expected to have more clients; correspondingly, production will be accelerated at the expense of increasing visitors.
2. Menu for youngsters.
Making special menu for children would also benefit to attract more clients and advance the situation.
If these recommendations are implemented the current undesirable issue is bound to be improved.
