Test: Letter Writing - Class 7 MCQ

• The introduction of a formal letter typically includes your name and address, which helps identify who you are and where you can be reached.
• Stating the reason for writing is crucial as it sets the context for the recipient.
• Asking the reader to keep in touch may be appropriate in informal letters but is not standard in formal introductions.
• Thus, the answer is 4: none of the above, as the introduction should focus on your details and the purpose of the letter.

• The date in a letter typically goes in the top left corner.
• This placement is standard in formal letters, making it easy for the recipient to know when the letter was written.
• Including the date also helps in keeping track of correspondence and provides context for the content of the letter.
• Always ensure the date is clear and formatted properly, usually including the month, day, and year.

There are five required parts of a letter and one optional part. The five include a heading, greeting, body, closing, and signature. There is also an optional postscript a writer may decide to include.
