An English friend of yours Anne is a student. She has written to you asking for advice.
Read
Anne’s email and the note you have made. Then write an email to Anne using all your notes.
Hi,
I’ve got together with six of my friends from college and we are hoping to travel to your
country for about two weeks for a holiday. Can you give us some help please, please? We
would like to know when the best time of year to visit your country is. Also, we want to meet
people our own age (17-18). What‘s the best way to do this? We don’t want to carry too much
stuff, so can you tell us what clothes we should bring?
And while we are there, would you like to join our group and travel round with us? I think it
would be fun. Don’t you?
Many thanks and looking forward to hearing from you
Anne

Dear Sir,
I understand from my colleague, Professor William Jones, who visited your Loughton plant
last month, that you sometimes allow groups of students to tour the factory and see for
themselves how Japanese production techniques operate in a European environment.
Professor Jones himself was most impressed by his own visit, and recommended that I write
to you.
