Hi Peter!
My name is Marek and I’m 15. I live in Katowice. I’m quite hard-working
at school and I enjoy it because I like most of my teachers. I don’t like
writing English – I prefer speaking it!

she’s quiet and shy. Zosia is 12 and she’s very talkative, and funny
sometimes.
I like playing football and listening to music. I’m a big fan of heavy metal
and rap. I play the piano. One day I want to play jazz piano.
What about you? Write me an email and tell me about yourself, your
school and your family.
All the best,
Choose the correct preposition.
I’m very fond of / in / for Uncle Alan.
I’m not really for / about / into computer games.

Dear all,
I hope you’re well and enjoyed the rest of the summer. Thanks so
much for having me in July and looking after me so well. I had
a brilliant time on all the trips! I loved Warwick Castle the most

I got back safely and I’ve told everyone what a fantastic time I
had with you. I’ve posted photos of the holiday on my Facebook

I’d like to invite you to come and stay with me next summer.
There are lots of places we could visit and I reckon we’d have a

Write soon and let me know how you are!
Lots of love, and thanks again for everything.

Hi Sam!
I saw Life of Pi with Amy yesterday. We chose this film because it

family has a zoo. He ends up in a small boat in the middle of the
sea, with ... a tiger! The ending is strange ... but you should see it
yourself.

Apparently, the council were building a new ramp there and they’d
left some tools in a lorry. It seems the vandals broke into the lorry

The council want to close the park now because it will cost too
much to repair. I’m really angry about this – it’s so unfair! Should
all young people suffer because of the stupid behaviour of a few?
The skate park is the only place to go around here. Without it,

Read the example letter. What does the writer want to do in
London?
Dear Uncle Alan,
How have you been since your accident? Mum said you were fine but
the car was badly damaged.
Thanks for inviting me to go and see a musical in London.
Unfortunately, I’ve already seen Les Miserables, and I can’t make the
Saturday you suggest anyway because I’m playing tennis then.
Have you seen The Lion King? I think it’s the best musical ever because
it has such fantastic songs. I’ve also heard that the costumes and scenery
are brilliant. Do you fancy coming to see it with me and my sister? We
could meet before the show and do some shopping.
Could you make it on Monday, 3rd June? I hope we can meet then
and perhaps have a meal in a nearby restaurant.
Love,
Suzy
