Subject: Advice about birthday parties
Dear Ben,
Hope you are in vibrant health. I hope that you have a blast on your sister’s birthday.
I have some good tips for you. “Restaurant on the Tree” has a good vibe to celebrate as the
organiser will help to arrange jungle exploration, rafting and bungee jumping for party-goers !
You can have a bird’s eye view of the whole city on the tree too ! Don’t worry, the safety gears
are always in place.

You received an email from your new friend, Solomon, who has just moved to your town.
Hi,
The school break is finally here ! Let’s go for a picnic with our friends. Where shall we go and
what can be our plans ? What items should we bring along ?
Hi Solomon,
The time has finally come. We have been waiting for your arrival. Your presence is indeed a
blessing to us !
This school break is best with your companionship. Your suggestion on a picnic with our buddies
sounds excellent! Let’s go to Batu Feringghi Beach. We can organise some telematches such as
beach volleyball and limbo at the beach. My parents will prepare the food and other necessary
stuff. I anticipate plenty of hilarious fun there ! Can’t wait to catch up with you!
Your friend,
David

Subject: Advice about what to do in Malaysia
Dear Robert,
Hi Robert,
I can’t wait to see you. I’ll probably be wearing the Avengers shirt you gave me, so you won’t
miss me!
When I reach Malaysia, I would like to visit the beach and fulfill all my taste buds with great
food! I am a huge wildlife fan so I’m looking forward to visiting the zoo this time. Lastly, we
could all have a barbeque together if it’s not raining.
That said, I hope the very best for you. That’s about it. See you soon. Bye!
Your friend
