Aunty, I have some good news for you. Last month I passed my final examination. A week ago I
succeeded to join a senior high school competition. Last night my parent promised me to send me to a
famous English course in my town. They also promised me if my scores in English are good, they’ll send me

Well, that’s all for now. Looking forward to having your news.
Love
Debby

want to enjoy having "lesehan" there this sevening. It is a kind of a restaurant but we sit on the ground.
Many kinds of local souvenirs are sold along Malioboro street. Both domestic and foreign tourists are interested in them. I want to buy some for

Don't worry, I'll also buy you the most interesting one.

Medan, May 4th, 2010

Dear Edgar,
I am very sorry for this late reply. I have just returned from my hometown. I was on holiday, but I did not really enjoy my stay
there. Things have changed.
When I was a child, I used to swim and go fishing with my brother and my friends in the river near my house. I like the river
because the water was clear and there were a lot of fish in it.
Now, the river is full of garbage and the water is turbid. The fish are gone and the area around the river is dirty. There are no
children swimming and fishing in the river because the water is ominous. The chemical waste from the factories makes it poisonous.
The condition of the river makes me sad. What about your hometown? Do you have the same problem? That’s all. I have to study
for the coming semester exam. Please reply soon.

Yours,
Zaki.
