Writing Part 2

Hi, Dear Jeff

Thank you very much for your invitation. Your birthday party  was fantastic, I liked the music, drink. But, the food was the best for me.

I would like to meet with you the next week because I' ll give you a present.

I hope hear from you soon.

Best whishes,

Carolina.

Writing Part 3

Dear Colin,

You say you want to have the same holiday as mine,  but I recommend you to choose another country to visit because in Scotland the weather is very cold and wet and every day it will get worse.  In this season of the year the museum and turistic places are closed because people prefer stay at home.

On the other hand, the food in this hotel is terrible, bland rice, the meat is raw and the fruit is rotten. Moreover, the rooms are very small and are not clean.The windows do not have curtains, the room service is very slow and some other problem as well.

Definitely, I  think you should go the Caribbean, you can find many  beautiful beaches and a lot places to visit. Also, the weather is sunny and hot and people are very friendly.

I hope that my advise can help you.

Best reagards,

Comment

Honestly, these activities were not easy for me because my result is not the best. But, I think that I need to practice more to get better weaknesses. In the first place  writing part 1 was difficult for me I had a lot of confusion about it . However, writing exercises in part 2 and 3 were easier for me. I liked a lot the last exercises.  It gave me many resources to improve my reading comprension and writing.
