For example, one advantage is that<mark> </mark>it can save money on travelling for people who live<mark> </mark>around<mark> the city centre </mark>.Another advantage is that it would provide much needed accommodation for people who work  in the city. Last but not the least, it will provide job opportunities because there will be many shops which will employ local people. <br>Disadvantages                                                    <br>There are many disadvantages of building a new shopping centre ,such as causing noise and air pollution, involving demolition of beautiful historical landmarks in the city, which results in loss of character and charm ,attracting less tourists who come to see historical buildings.  For example, we would lose our old library, which is a beautiful Victorian building that attracts many tourists. Also, we would lose St. Leonard's ( St. Michael, St. George) church, which is a landmark for our city. We would lose our Queen Victoria statue, which people take pictures with all the time. <br><br>My suggestion is that the company should stop demolition<mark>  of </mark>the old historical buildings  because we do not want to <mark>lose</mark> the historical building in Birmingham, which <mark>was</mark> attracting tourists from <mark>everywhere</mark> to see it and we do not want that our city <mark>loses</mark> it’s character and charm . Although I think people really need  to <del>have a </del>build a  new shopping centre, they could chose another location in the city because the historical buildings are more important.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>To: leisure-centre@hotmail.co.uk <br>Subject: My concern and suggestions about the open day<br>Dear Sir/Madam, <br>Iam writing to express my concerns about the activities at the leisure centre and to make some suggestions for future improvement.  <br>The open day event, <mark> </mark>which I attended last week, gave people the chance<mark>  to </mark>discover new ways of keeping fit and find a sport or activity they can continue to enjoy in the future. It is<mark> </mark>more than just a gym .The Center offers brilliant facilities including swimming pool, sports hall and fitness studios . Meanwhile, adults <mark>tried</mark> free exercise classes, gym challenges, the sauna and steam room. <br><br>Despite<mark> </mark>a variety of exercising and activities, there were a lot of necessary activities that<mark> </mark>were missing , which was very disappointing.For example , there were not any activities for children as dance and gymnastics demonstrations that should also be happening on the open day. <br>I suggest that the open day should include activities for children as <mark>will</mark> as  for adults because the family open day is a fantastic opportunity for anyone who has not yet visited the centre to have a look around and find out more about the activities on offer there. My <mark>suggested</mark> activities that should be <mark>included </mark>in the open day are  : dance and gymnastics, junior football, family fun bootcamp.<br>I am looking  forward to keep my consideration and suggestions in mind .<br>Best regards, <br>Fairuz Ahmed</div>]]></description>
