Model Report

Task

The school where you study English has decided to spend some money on either
buy more computers or improving the library. You have been asked to write a
report for the school director describing the benefits to the school of both these
things, and saying which one you think should be chosen and why.




                   Use of Money for School Improvements

Introduction

The aim of this report is to compare the advantages of additional computers and
of improving the library, and to suggest which of these would be best. I
interviewed a number of students to find out their views.

Buying more computers

Some of the students thought this was a good idea, saying computers were
useful for:

   •   practising writing

   •   using the Internet

   •   playing games

However, other students said that they preferred to use their own computers at
home.

Improving the Library

Most of the students preferred this suggestion, giving the following reasons:

   1. Many students do not have a quiet place to study at home. The library
      would be a good place for private study, but at present there are not
      enough tables and chairs there.

   2. They feel that up-to-date dictionaries and reference books are needed

   3. They want to be able to read modern books written for young people.

Recommendations

Both ideas have benefits, but the majority of students felt that improving the
library would be more useful. I would therefore recommend this.
