Read the following letter:

Date: October 24, 2026
From: Mateo Silva, Director of the San Juan Community Theater
To: Valeria Ortiz, President of the Cultural Heritage Foundation

Dear Ms. Ortiz,

I am writing to update you on the progress of our theater's restoration project, funded by the grant approved on August 12, 2026. As of October 10, 2026, we have successfully completed Phase 1, which focused on the roof and structural support.

According to our grant agreement, to release the next funding installment of $15,000, we must submit three documents by November 15, 2026: the Phase 1 expense report, photographs of the completed roof, and the certified contractor agreement for Phase 2. While the expense report and photographs are enclosed with this letter, our lead architect, Sofia Reyes, is still awaiting municipal permits for Phase 2. We expect these permits by November 8, 2026, which will delay the contractor agreement.

Therefore, we request an extension until November 29, 2026, to submit the contractor agreement. Additionally, we ask for an advance of $5,000 from the upcoming installment by November 10, 2026, to pay our masonry team for preliminary site preparation.

Sincerely,
Mateo Silva

Cevap

A two-week extension to submit the contractor agreement and a partial advance of $5,000 by November 10.
The correct option is directly supported by the text, where the director asks for an extension to submit the contractor agreement until November 29 (which is two weeks after the November 15 deadline) and requests a $5,000 advance by November 10 to pay the masonry team.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Locate the paragraph containing the specific request made by the sender.
Identify the final paragraph where the sender requests a document deadline extension and a monetary advance.
In formal letters, the primary requests or calls to action are typically positioned towards the end of the text.
2
Verify the dates and monetary figures associated with the request.
Confirm that the extension is requested until November 29 (extending the November 15 deadline by two weeks) and the advance requested is $5,000 by November 10.
Extracting exact numbers and dates prevents confusion with other timeline details, such as the permit receipt date of November 8.
3
Compare the verified details against the answer options.
Select the option that correctly details the two-week extension and the $5,000 advance.
Only this option accurately represents both parts of the director's request without mischaracterizing personnel roles or the completion status of Phase 1.
