They are going to expand the airport near where we live! We should do something! You are unhappy about a plan to make your local airport bigger and increase the number of flights. You live near the airport. Write a letter to your local newspaper. In your letter: • explain where you live • describe the problem • give reasons why you do not want this development. Here is the letter. Good day I probably have good material for your newspaper. Not more than two weeks ago I saw a piece of news in your newspaper about our local government's plans to extend our airport. Having read that I was completely disappointed about this situation. I live in Gvardeysk which is just five miles from the airport. Our problems started five years ago in 2011. At that time the airport was used in military means therefore there were relatively few flights conducted at the airport. Since 2011 the number of flights conducted increased many times. The residents of the town have been complaining to our local authorities about this problem ever since then but without any results. Even with the current number of flights we have experienced huge inconveniences. Babies can't fall asleep because they are constantly being awakened by the noise of the airplanes flying over. When a plane is flying over the town the walls and window of the housed are literally trembling. And now they are planning to expand it, despite all our objections and complaints. I think you should throw light upon the problem which could be in turn be of help to us. Thank you
