Dear Sir or Madam,
Key 2nd edition Student’s Book 1 - Answer Key
I am writing to you regarding the course in
History and Spanish. I am interested in
studying History and Spanish and I believe
that the course in Manchester has a very
good reputation. I am currently studying
history, politics and French at school and
will be taking my A levels next summer.
3 It’s a personalized emoji / a cartoon

4 It’s a pictogram.
5 It’s an online ’dictionary’ explaining the
meaning of all the emojis.

Would you be able to give me more

information about some aspects of the
course? Firstly, as you can see, I am not
studying Spanish at school. Would I be
able to take the course as a complete
beginner? Secondly, I am aware that
students have to spend a year abroad as
part of the course. I was wondering
whether it is possible to spend this time in
Argentina since I am interested in
Argentinian history and literature.
I would be extremely grateful if you could
send me the information requested. I
appreciate your assistance and look
forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Libby Berkmann

3 1 Ellen Dean.
2 A house.
3 Because he didn’t bring them a present.
4 He and Catherine became close friends.
He had a bad relationship with Hindley –
Hindley hated Heathcliff. He had a close
relationship with Mr Earnshaw – Mr
Earnshaw liked Heathcliff more than his
own son.
5 Possible answers:
1 Ellen is now a servant. Mr Earnshaw has
died. Catherine gets presents and her life
continues as before, unlike Heathcliff’s.
Heathcliff is treated like a farm worker
rather than a member of the family.
Hindley is married, but he is still jealous of
Heathcliff. He is now the master of
Wuthering Heights.
2 They seem very close. They could be
falling in love.
3 Because they love each other, but their
relationship will not end well because he is
a servant and she is wealthy. Perhaps one
of them will die before they can get
married.
