June 16 June 25

Dear Heather, Dear Maria,

I’m very excited about my trip. I’m also nervous. I’ve never
been out of my country before. Could you give me some
advice? Could you tell me what the weather is like in
Madison in the summer? I know it’s very cold in the winter.
Should I bring a heavy coat? Also, would you like me to
bring you anything from Mexico? My sister sells silver
jewelry. Do you like silver?
I’ll be arriving on Flight 24 from Chicago at around 11 at
night. My parents will drive me from Oaxaca to Puebla.
Then I’ll fly from Puebla to Houston. I change planes in
Houston for Chicago and then change again to fly to
Madison. It’s going to be a long trip.
Love,
Maria
1 What’s the weather like in Madison in the summer?
Don’t be nervous. Everything will be fine. Also, don’t bring
a coat or even a sweater. It’s very hot in Madison in the
summer. Just bring shorts and some light blouses.
Thanks for offering to bring me something. You really
don’t have to, but I love silver.
You’re going to have a long day. We’ll be waiting for you
at the airport. My little sister Ann is very excited. She’s
even practicing her Spanish.
See you soon.
Love,
Heather

Be prepared for difficult situations Get medication and use it correctly Get support
Get ready Make changes in your lifestyle

Would you like to quit smoking? It isn’t easy. It takes a lot of work and dedication, but you can do it. Why
should you quit? First, you will live longer and feel better if you don’t smoke. You will lower the probability
of having a heart attack, a stroke, or getting cancer, and the people around you will be healthier, too.
Here are five steps that can help you quit.

1 get ready
Set a specific date to quit. Get rid of all your cigarettes and ask people not to smoke in your home.
2 get support
Research has shown that you have a higher probability of quitting if your friends and family help you.
3 make changes in your lifestyle
Try to distract yourself. Change your routine. Do something fun every day.
4 get medication and use it correctly
There are drugs that can help you stop smoking. Ask your doctor to recommend them and then follow the
instructions exactly.
5 be prepared for difficult situations
Most relapses happen within the first three months after quitting. Don’t get discouraged. Most people try
to quit several times before they actually stop smoking.

Match the newspaper headlines with the first sentences of the articles. Write the letters a–e.
