Answer 1

Model Application (alternate):
To,
The Librarian,
City Inter College,
Kanpur.

Subject: Arranging a foreign grammarian's book on English grammar.

Respected Sir,

I am writing on behalf of the students of Class XII to request that a standard grammar book by a reputed foreign author be added to our library collection, to help us prepare more effectively for the board examination and improve our command over English grammar.

A reference title such as Michael Swan's 'Practical English Usage' would be especially useful, as it explains grammar rules with plenty of practical examples that are easy to follow.

Kindly consider this request at your earliest convenience.

Thanking you.

Yours sincerely,
A Student of Class XII
