para esta carta que vas a escribir hazlo de forma sencilla, con frases cortas. Si la carta es informal puedes usar contracciones isn't, aren't...

pero si va dirigida a una entidad  o es algo más formal no se deben usar contracciones.

1.- ¿Quién escribe la carta?

en las cartas formales la dirección suele ponerse en la parte superior de la derecha.

2.- La fecha.

Se escribe en la parte superior derecha y se puede hacer de varias maneras:

02nd October 2017

October 02nd, 2017

2 Oct 2017

02/03/17

3.- ¿A quién va dirigida?

se usa en las cartas formales, suele escribirse el nombre y la dirección a la que va dirigida.

5.- El cuerpo de la carta.

El primer párrafo que escribimos indicará EL OBJETIVO de la carta, a partir del segundo se explicarán LOS DETALLES y en el último párrafo especificamos LA ACCIÓN  que se desea.

en caso de esperar una respuesta a nuestra carta podemos incluir esta formula como ultima frase:

I look forward to hearing you soon

6.- final.

la formula final de la carta tiene que ver con el tipo de saludo que hemos utlizado por lo que si usamos:

Yours faithfully/trully (es para carta formal y se pone si usamos Dear Sir / Dear Madam / Dear Sirs)

Yours sincerely (es para carta formal y se pone si usamos Dear Mr White / Dear Mrs White)

USE 1 Completed Action in the Past

Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past. Sometimes, the speaker may not actually mention the specific time, but they do have one specific time in mind.

Examples:

• I saw a movie yesterday.
• I didn't see a play yesterday.
• Last year, I traveled to Japan.
• Last year, I didn't travel to Korea.
• Did you have dinner last night?
• She washed her car.
• He didn't wash his car.

USE 2 A Series of Completed Actions

We use the Simple Past to list a series of completed actions in the past. These actions happen 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on.

Examples:

• I finished work, walked to the beach, and found a nice place to swim.
• He arrived from the airport at 8:00, checked into the hotel at 9:00, and met the others at 10:00.
• Did you add flour, pour in the milk, and then add the eggs?

USE 3 Duration in Past

The Simple Past can be used with a duration which starts and stops in the past. A duration is a longer action often indicated by expressions such as: for two years, for five minutes, all day, all year, etc.

Examples:

• I lived in Brazil for two years.
• Shauna studied Japanese for five years.
• They sat at the beach all day.
• They did not stay at the party the entire time.
• We talked on the phone for thirty minutes.
• A: How long did you wait for them?
  B: We waited for one hour.

USE 4 Habits in the Past

The Simple Past can also be used to describe a habit which stopped in the past. It can have the same meaning as "used to." To make it clear that we are talking about a habit, we often add expressions such as: always, often, usually, never, when I was a child, when I was younger, etc.

Examples:

• I studied French when I was a child.
• He played the violin.
• He didn't play the piano.
• Did you play a musical instrument when you were a kid?
• She worked at the movie theater after school.
