Task 1 Every year the older students in your school invite adults to come and talk about why they are successful in their careers. You decide to write a letter to a well-known personality (for example, from television or business) to persuade him or her to come and speak to the students. Write your letter. You must include the following: • an invitation to speak to the students and the date and venue for the meeting • what you admire about the personality and his or her work • how the students benefit from these visits. Cover all three points above in detail. You should make your letter polite and persuasive. Start your letter ‘Dear ,’ and remember to provide a suitable ending.
