a. 
I am just writing to you to say that the views which I have seen from my new apartment are not as good as the pictures you have shown me, and I am wondering why. I have paid a very generous amount to live in this luxurious place with lots of space and I am very pleased with the inside, however the outside is not as I imagined. I expects to have one of the nicest views of the coast, but in fact I have a very nice view... of the car park. I am sending you a warning letter now because if I don't get a better room, I will put in an official complaint.
