A.Read The These E-pal letter below carefully!

Hello Max.! Let me introduce myself. My name is Adam.

I know your name from my friend, Gabby. He told me that you sent him an email telling him that you would like
to have more pen pals from the Spain. I'd like to be your E-pal. You sound very cool!.
I guess I'd better tell you something about myself first. I'm 16 years old and I attend EF Education high school
here in Madrid, Spain. I have two brothers and two half-sisters and I'm the middle child. My father died a few years ago
so my mother runs the house and the family business. My father was a barista.
I have lots of hobbies. I like music - mostly classical music and folk music - but I don't play an instrument. I like sport,
especially football and basketball. At school I'm in the basketball team and I spend most of my extra-curricular time
playing basketball. I'm into animals very much. My brother and I have three dogs. They need lots of attention as you can
imagine. My favorite subject at school is English and science. I think I'd like to become a drugstore assistant when I
graduate, perhaps work for National Hospitality service.
I don't like play station. But I love reading and writing. How about you? Please drop me a line, Max! Can't wait to
hear from you!

It was very interesting to read your letter about yourself and your hometown. I would really to be your pen
friend.
I'm sixteen-year-old school student from Texas, US. Actually I attend an international boarding just outside the
city but my family lives in New York. My eldest brother is a surgery doctor. he will get married soon. My younger sister is
a junior high school student.
My favorite subjects are social sciences. I like history very much; it helps me know more how different countries
existed in the past. At school we are supposed to use Arabic language at all times, even when we are in the dormitory,
so we have become quite fluent, although sometimes we slip back into English, which is our mother tongue.
As for hobbies, I'm really into songs and music. My favorite boy band is one direction. My favorite US singer is of
course Celine Dion. I also like watching movie, especially comedies. The actor I like best is Tom Cruise.
I'm really info books. I like feeding novel and short stories. I like some writers in English, like JK Rowling and American
writers too, like James Peterson and Nora Roberts. My dream, when I'm older, is to be a writer of science fiction books.
I'd really love to come to Spain someday, especially to the magnificent Royal Palace in Madrid. What about you, do you
want to visit my country?
.. Sincerely yours...
Max Steven
