You are living in a University residence, and you have a problem with the high levels of noise from
a new campus restaurant which is open late at night. Write a letter to the governor of the
University. In your letter,
Complain about the situation
Say why this is a problem
And propose ways to reduce the noise
Dear Mr Smith,
I am writing regarding the amount of noise coming from the new canteen which has just opened near
my University residence. Although I am pleased that we have this facility, the restaurant remains open
up to midnight each night, and as a result there is considerable talking, shouting and the sound of
motorbikes continuing until about 12.30 each night.
This causes me and my neighbours in the residence a serious problem, because at that time we are
either trying to sleep, or in some cases trying to study in our bedrooms. In both cases, the noise and
commotion disturbs us, making us tired in the mornings or affecting the progress of our studies. I am
sure you will appreciate that this is a very worrying situation for us all.
I would like to suggest that the campus authorities restrict the canteen’s opening to 11pm at the latest
on weekdays, leaving it at midnight during the weekend. I propose that we also put up some signs
reminding users to be considerate and to keep their noise to an absolute minimum. These are simple
steps which would make us all very grateful indeed.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
Kind Regards,
Claudia Maggioni
