Mark is writing to the council to contest a parking fine. Select the sentences that contain language inappropriate for a formal text. Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m not happy at all about receiving a fine for parking at the local supermarket. I am certain I was not there longer than 45 minutes and should not, therefore, be fined. But here I am, holding a letter from you saying that, somehow, I was in fact there for nearly an hour! As if! If you can prove it, I’ll pay it – and not a penny from me until you do!

Regards,

Grant
