Dear Tahir,
     I have received the novels you lent to me the day before yesterday. These include "The Old Man and the Sea" by Ernest Hemingway, "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, "Emma" by Jane Austen and "Great Expectation" by Charles Dickens. 
     I am really thankful to you for this. You did me a great favour. All this shows your deep love, trust and friendship for me. I have already started reading these bestsellers. I hope these books will improve my English, expand my comprehension and cultivate my creativity. 
     I assure that I shall take care of your books. I know that a book is neither a toy nor a bug smacker. It is like a friend and should be treated like a friend. I shall try to return these books as early as possible. 
Thanking you again. 

Yours truly, 
X.Y.Z.

Dear Saba,
     I hope that you are in good health. I received your gift of Titan Quartz wrist watch on my birthday two days ago. It is a very beautiful watch. I received many gifts but yours was the best. All my friends admired the watch. 
     Moreover, it needed it badly as I happened to lose my erstwhile watch in a mishap a few days ago. I promise that I shall take care of it. It will also help to make me punctual. I think that your gift is not just a present, rather it is a token of your love for me. It makes me realize that sisterhood is truly a special bond. 
    Would that you were present on my birthday party. We all missed you very much. However, your loving gift made me feel that you were with us. I shall keep this gift as a souvenir of your love, attachment and affection for me. 
I thank you again for this precious gift.

Yours affectionately,
X.Y.Z.

Letter to Brother Advising Him to Improve His Health

Dear Arif, 
     Though our relationship is a perennial bond of intimate relation yet whenever I get any bad news from you, my sorrow knows no bounds. It makes my heart bleed. I am extremely shocked to know that your health is growing from bad to worse day by day.
     I am informed that you are over worked in your studies and have become a book worm. You stay awake till late at night and have become very weak. I appreciate your love for knowledge but it must not be allowed to damage your health. A young man has no business to feel run down. You must be kicking and bubbling with life and energy.
     Physical fitness is a moral duty. So observe regular hours of work, meals, play and sleep. Try to sleep early and develop a habit of taking morning walk. Make milk, fruit and fresh vegetables a part of your daily meal. If you act upon my advice, I am sure, you will soon improve your health.
I hope that you will give attention to my advice.

Yours affectionately,
X.Y.Z.
