Tanvi is the Sports Captain of Gyan Jyoti Public School, Ambala. She writes to Patel Sports House, Jalandhar, to buy twelve basketballs and two nets for the school team. Select the correct option for the subject line of her letter:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Order for twelve basketballs and two nets for the school team
Tanvi wants the shop to send the balls and nets, so her letter is an order letter. The subject line gives this purpose in a few words. It also names the items and how many are needed.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 2: Request for a price list of basketballs — Incorrect. It only asks for information. That is the subject of an enquiry, not of an order.
Option 3: Regarding sports items — Incorrect. It is too vague. It does not say what Tanvi wants.
Option 4: Send the balls fast or we will lose the match — Incorrect. It is a pushy, emotional line. A subject line states the purpose calmly.
