Answer:

Dear sir or madam,

First of all, I would like to thank you for the admission to this prestigious school. The reason for this letter is that I do not find the program suitable for me.

The program the school offered me is in English and Literature, it is a complete program and suitable for students who want to pursue a career in English, but my interests are in Computer and Science. A program in English would not help me to grow in this field.

Another reason why I do not find the program suitable is that it is centered in American literature and does not include English literature or other languages, which can be beneficial to have different points of view and develop better critical thinking skills.

Due to the mentioned reasons, I would like for my program to be changed to one that fits my interests and challenges me to develop my skills. I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,

Susan Johnson.

Explanation:

When we write to the headteacher or a teacher in the school, we should use formal language.

First, we have to address the person by writing dear and their name. As we do not know the name, we use sir or madam or headmaster. Then, we make an introduction where we talk about why we are writing. In the following paragraphs, we describe in detail why we want the headteacher to change our program. Lastly, we politely ask for the program to be changed and say our goodbyes.

<em>The right answer is letter C - </em><em>that the speaker is able to see and feel her faith in eveything that surrounds her.</em>

<em>In this poem the poet explains why she stays at home during sabbath instead of going to church. She describes how the choir is replaced by a bobolink and a sexton, and that she doesn't need to go anywhere in particular as the "orchard"  outside can be likened to church "dome". </em><em>Emily feels her faith is not bound to any place but rather it can be found in everything around her.</em>

Which of the following best describes Upton Sinclair, Ida Tarbell, and Frank Norris's impact on journalism? They were among the
True [87]

Upton Sinclair, Ida Tarbell and Frank Norris were amont the first journalists to publicize immoral, corrupt practices of large industries during the Progressive Era.

Upton Sinclair was an American writer who won the Pulitzer Prize. In 1904, Fred Warren, editor of the socialist newspaper Appeal to Reason, commissioned him a report on the bad practices of the food industry that would become the novel The Jungle, an unprecedented sales success and a huge international commotion.  As a consequence, President Theodore Roosevelt received the author in the White House and put in place laws to ensure the quality of food for human consumption.

Ida Tarbell was an American professor, writer and journalist, considered one of the main "muckrakers" of the Progressive Era.  She is known for her research on John D. Rockefeller and the Standard Oil Company; her investigations exposed the unfair monopolistic practices carried out by the company until the Supreme Court decided to dissolve the monopoly.

Frank Norris was an American correspondent and novelist. Between 1895 and 1896, he worked as a correspondent in South Africa. Between 1896 and 1897, he was assistant editor of the San Francisco Wave. During the Spanish-American War, Norris was a correspondent in Cuba for McClure's magazine, being critical of American interventionist policies in the war.

AlladinOne [14]

I am dissatisfied with the service I received.

This is the better revision because the word choice is more specific to the topic of the letter. Also, the more professional tone distances herself from the manager and gives more her more authority. The original sentence sounds too informal. This would be problematic because the audience of the letter may see the author as whiny and complaining instead of a person who should be taken seriously and worth listening to.
