Dear Indah
Indah, sorry I haven’t written to you for so long. We moved into a new apartment last month and
we’ve been really busy getting settled.
It’s a nice apartment. It is bigger than our old one. It’s big so there are a lot of rooms to work in. It has
a big living room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Another thing I like is the kitchen.
The apartment is on a quiet street in a good neighborhood. There’s also a shopping centre just down
the street with a supermarket, some quite good restaurants and some stores.
We really enjoy living here. Do come over and have a look next time you are in the town. I’ll
wait.

Love
Shelly

Dear Ivan
How are you? Hope everything is okay with you. I’m all right here.
We are going to have the national examination, aren’t we? Are you well prepared for it? Well, to be
honest, I just have some difficulties in preparing for it, especially in science. There are extra lessons in my
school and I take them all. But, I feel that they don’t help. I’m still confused in solving mathematic problems.
I’m just worried that I fail the national examination. Do you have any suggestion for me? I really appreciate
your help.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Your buddy

Fahri
