Dear Sir or Madam,

I read your ____ (advertise)               in International Business magazine and I am writing for more information concerning entry ____ (require)              for the course in English Language ____ (improve)             . Could you tell me what language ___ (qualify)                are required? I do not possess the Language Certificate and would like to know if ____ (accept)            on the course depends on having the FLC? In fact, as I am an ___ (account)            for an international ___ (invest)            company I would be interested in a course which focuses on language ___ (develop)             for both social and ____ (busy)          purposes. I would like also to know the __ (distant)          from the college to London and if ___ (attend)            at all classes is obligatory, or whether an occasional ____ (absent)         for purposes of travel is acceptable.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,

Amanda Simpson
