At a nice fishing spot chosen earlier, they cast their fishing line. Initially, it was a bit monotonous

As dusk arrived, they stopped fishing and went home. As for Zul, his mother cooked the fish and
served them for dinner. Everyone really enjoyed the cooking and hoped Zul would fish more.

Pak Hitam is a rubber tapper. At the crack of dawn, he cycles to the rubber estate to tap rubber trees to
earn for a living.
One morning, as he was in the estate, he heard a growling sound. He stood still, slowly turned around
and discovered it was none other than a tiger which made his hair stood on ends.
Safely arrived at home, Pak Hitam informed the Perhilitan. The following day, a cage was made to
trap the creature. Few days later, the tiger was caught and brought to the zoo.
As for Pak Hitam, he was relieved.

Dear Sir,

We would like to ask permission to visit your old folks home. We are from English Society of SK

programme.

We plan to visit your place on 20 September 2017 from 10.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. We will go there by
bus. We will bring some food and goodies for the elderly there. We plan to do some enjoyable
activities with them such as singing, playing board games and reciting poems.

I hope to get reply from you as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
