The way you think of a word, or how it makes you feel. The qualities that represent it, or describes it, in that one word. Hope this helps, but I do remember learning about this in the 6th grade.
The person who wrote this email believes that the local library should be a priority: "the public library is essential to our community." This person cares about the town's students' ability to study in an appropriate environment: "students need a safe and quiet place to complete their homework." They would like the library to remain available as it currently is.
The problem is the city council's recent decision to reduce the opening hours for the library: "city council plans to cut the library’s hours." We are told that this measure comes as a response to the charges that are involved in keeping the library open (paying the employees, for the most part): "the budget is an issue."
This is an issue because as a consequence, the students would not get to study in as good conditions as they do now: "this will limit students’ time to study and conduct research after school." As a result, the community can try to influence the vote of the city council's members on the issue: "I am writing to urge you to vote against these cuts."
The solution suggested to the city official is to ask college students to volonteer as library employees, in order to keep the library open without the city council's worrying about paying the staff: "perhaps volunteers from the local community college can help staff the library."
