    The document provides guidance on email structure and tone for a B2 English proficiency level. It recommends using a short, specific subject line. The greeting and close should match the formality of the recipient, ranging from "very formal" options like "To whom it may concern" to informal ones like a name only. Opening sentences should explain the email's purpose, and the conclusion should indicate if a response is expected, using endings from "Looking forward to your reply" for formal/informal to "Hope to hear from you soon" which is informal.
