dear editor,

i’m writing to tell you about the discussion we have had about whether an entrance fee should be charged for parks. 60% of us schoolmates think t hat an entrance fee do not meet people’s expectations, for a park is considered to be a place where the public can have a good time when they are not busy either a t home or at work. if an entrance fee must be paid by the visitors for a park, it will be necessary to build a gate and surrounding walls. in the end a city will take on a bad look. 40% of us schoolmates think that an entrance fee can be accepted, but it must not be too expensive. the money from ticket selling can be used for paying the gardeners in the par k and buying some other kinds of flowers and trees.

with regard to myself, i think an entrance fee is useful, for it can be used to protect a park. do we share the same opinion, dear editor?

yours truly,
