Mr Sandeep Rawat, a teacher in Meerut, is planning a four-day trip to Nainital from 10 to 13 May for forty students. He writes to the Manager, Hotel Lakeview, Nainital, to ask whether rooms are free and what they will cost. Choose the most appropriate subject line for his letter:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Enquiry about rooms for a school group from 10 to 13 May
Mr Rawat wants to know about rooms and their cost, so this is a letter of enquiry. The subject line names the purpose (enquiry), what he asks about (rooms) and the dates.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: Request for a refund of the advance paid for rooms — Incorrect. It asks for money back. Mr Rawat has not booked or paid for any rooms yet.
Option 2: About the hotel — Incorrect. It is too vague. It does not say what the writer wants from the hotel.
Option 3: To know about the room for school student trip — Incorrect. The words “the room for school student trip” are not correct English.
