                 answer the questions related to the functions of the paragraphs.



                     Salutation                   Dear Jammie,


                                                  Thank you for asking me for advice. I have read the survey results and
                     Introduction                 studied the system of your school to make good decisions. I hope my
                                                  advice will be of help to your school.

                                                  First of all, the administration should change the duration of lessons.
                                                  Most students complain about 50 minute lessons. As you know, most
                     Body Paragraph 1             people, especially teenagers do not have long attention spans and they
                                                  may easily lose their interest in the lesson. It may be a good idea to
                                                  make it 40 minutes.

                                                  Another reason for distraction seems to be the timetable. You had better
                                                  request  the  administration  to  change  the  timetable.  Some  subjects
                     Body Paragraph 2             require more attention, but we see that subjects of this sort such as
                                                  chemistry, literature and physics are mostly in the afternoon. A change
                                                  will make it easier for the students to keep motivated.

                                                  In conclusion, changing the class duration and timetable will probably
                     Conclusion                   help you to fight the distraction problem in your school. Let me know
                                                  about the results.

                     Closing
                                                  Best.
