Dear Karim,
Hi! My name is Philip Duff. I live in Notitingham, England. I’m sixteen years old. The name of
my school is Becket Secondary. It is a very big school. My father’s name is Peter and my
mother’s name is Clara. I have two brothers. Their names are Steven and Eric. Steven is eleven
and Eric is nineteen. At the weekend, I play computer games with my brothers, and I go to the
cinema with my friend, Richard. He is fifteen. His father is history teacher. Richard and I are very
good friends. Write and tell me about your family and friends.
Best wishes,
Philip
