Part 1.

Nowdays, there are a lot of children that they have to stay alone at home because their parents have
to work a lot. So they should be more independent and personally I think that learn to cook is very
importat.

For teenagers is necessary to learn to cook because it is a basis need and if you don’t know to it, you
could have many problems. So if you live alone, this problem could make you lose weight or even
you aren’t so happy. I think that is better to learn how cook when you are young, in my opinion the
best cookers are the grandparents so you can cook with them and they could be you teacher.

Also, there are a lot of people are thinking that cooking is a very bored activity but if you learn very
quikly you could pass from making a fried egg to making chemical cooking, so there are in
television a lot of programs to change the thought of the people.

In conclusion, I think that learning to cook is a basis need to survive but this could also be a activity
to do on free time if you enjoy doing it.

Part 2

Hi Tom.

I am very happy to hear from you again and I hope you are well. I can help you with your work
even I don’t know much about music.

In my country, there are a lot of types of dance like “ Flamenco” or “Jota”. For example, “Flamenco
is a kind of dance which the women wears in flowers dresses and with many decorations. This
dance is done by adults and childre so there are many flamenco classes in Andalusia to learn this
dance. People do this during town and city festivals. I don’t know how to dance it but I like its
music a lot because the musicians play the guitar and hands.

About the jota, this is typical of northern Spain. This is also made by both children and adults and
they do it to celebrate the festivals of towns and cities. There are more types of dance but I only
know these.

So I hope I have helped you Tom and I hope to see you soon too.

Best wishes.

Juanjo.
