WRITING ACTIVITY
Choose one of your good friends. Introduce him/her. Write, at least, 10 sentences
using the grammar structures and vocabulary you have learned in the unit.

• He is my good friend Jorge.

• Jorge is an electronic engineer and a teacher at a school.

• In his car, he always arrives early to teach, since he lives very far from his place of work.

• My friend also likes sports like me, sometimes we play soccer with other friends.

• Jorge lives in the city of Pasto and works in my town from Monday to Friday.

• Jorge and I grew up together and studied from kindergarten to finishing high school.

• Their family is very nice, I shared time with them when I studied my first degree in Pasto.

• When we were kids, we used to play all afternoon until our parents came to pick us up.

• Jorge and I have known each other for more than 25 years, I don't remember when or

where, but we became good friends.

• Jorge hopes being a teacher to teach young people that studying is the way to be better

people, that is his saying.
