You borrowed an important textbook from a classmate last term. You now realize your classmate had returned home overseas and you still have the book. Write a letter to to him / her. In your letter:
apologize for the mistake
find out how important the book is to him / her
say what you will do
==========================================================
Dear Jane,
How are you doing? Hope you reach safely to your home town.
When rearranging the bookshelf, I found Nano-technology book that I have borrowed from you. Although I promised to return it a week ago, I completely forget it, and I am extremely sorry.
I came to know from Sam that you are going to your place on study holidays for preparing the final semester papers. I am aware this book is important in exam preparation days, as it is recommended by professor for the subject: Future Science.
I enquired local post office, to courier the book. They said it would take ten days to deliver at your place. Instead, I am sending through DHL post because they promised me to send it in three days. I hope you won't have an issue with this arrangement.
Just let me know when you received it.
with lots of love,
Jegan

I enjoyed reading your letter. You cover all the tasks required. I like how you tried one solution and when that wasn't suitable, you suggested another. Well done!

Re: please evaluate task 1 : informal letter
IMO, don't think the following has been addressed in the letter
find out how important the book is to him / her?.
It is assumed in the letter that it is important. while experts can suggest better but i think you may lose some marks on the task completion as this was insufficiently covered.
