Sarah Miller is in New York. She is writing a letter to her best friend.
Dear Sophia, How are you? How is London? I am having a very good time in New
York. It’s Sunday and it’s sunny and warm. Now it’s ten in the morning and we are
in Central Park. I am sitting under a tree, I am listening to my radio… and I am writing
to you, of course. My Canadian cousin Rosemary is here with us, she is reading a
comic. She’s very pretty. She’s tall and slim and she has got long wavy brown hair.
Her parents are in Toronto. My father is reading The New York Times, an American
newspaper. My mother is playing with my little brother Jimmy on the grass and they
are eating popcorn. There are many people in the park. Some men are jogging, two
girls are walking their dogs, and an old man is skating! And he can do that quiet well.
We often come to this fantastic park, in this wonderful city because we are relaxing
here. But sometimes we visit other interesting places: museums, shops, galleries,
etc… New York is great! There are many fantastic skyscrapers, great shops and
there are people everywhere!
Love, Sarah
