7 311 East Duke St. Stanley N.C August 15, 2004 Dear Fill, Thank you for your letter. It was great to hear from you again. You asked me about my holidays. This is my second season at Camp Bellaire. I just passed my swimming test. Now I can swim out to the raft and also use the boats. To pass I had to jump into the water with my clothes on. (as if I had just fallen out of the boat). Then I had to take them down to my trunks, even my shoes and socks, and finally swim back to shore. It was tough, but I did it! How has your summer been? Not too hot, I hope. Did you get to visit your grandparents? Did you go on a trip to Toronto as you had planned? They say Toronto is a beautiful city! Looking forward to seeing you soon. There is lots of news to catch up on!. Best wishes, Mike. Break the Letter into Paragraphs

8 Re-arrange Parts of the Letter Thanks for your letter. I`m glad you`re going to visit Russia. The weather in summer is usually hot, so I don` t think you `ll need lots of warm clothes. However, you`d better take a jacket. Can`t wait to see you. In your letter you asked me about the life in a big city. As for me, I enjoy living in Moscow as there are lots of parks and cosy cafes, museums and galleries. In the evening I go for a walk with my friends, and at weekends we go to the theatre or cinema. I`d better go now as I have to do my homework-boring! Lots of love, Rita Dear Jane, Have you got any museums in your town? Are they free for students? Are there sports facilities?

11 London, UK 7 th September 2008 Dear Rob, Thank you for your letter. I am very glad to receive it. I am glad you managed to talk to Sam. Please give my best regards to him. You asked me about technology. I have got a new mobile. It has got a camera, so I am taking a lot of pictures at the moment. I have also got a computer but I use it mainly for surfing the Net. Of course, we have got things like a TV, a DVD player and a music centre. My parents usually watch TV whereas my brother spends hours playing computer games. I am glad you have made such progress in chess. Is it difficult to learn how to play it? Will I be able to do it on my own? How can I get started?
