True or False

Dear Mary,

Thanks a lot for your gift. I’m very happy to hear that you had a nice holiday in Italy. I’ve finished the first semester test, but I’m not satisfied with my results. I got good grades for all the subjects except English. My English teacher said I wasn’t good at it, especially speaking and writing. Although I’ve tried my best, I can’t improve my English. Can you show me how to study it well?

 Write to me soon and tell all your news.

  Dear Mai,

I’m very pleased that we’re going to be pen pals. I’ll tell you a little about myself, and you can do the same when you write to me.

I live in an area of London called Maida Vale. It’s quite near the centre, but there are parks nearby where I often take my dog, Mickey, for a walk. I live with my parents and my younger brother, Paul. My father works for the post office and my mother has a part-time job as a nurse.

I go to the local comprehensive school, where I have a lot of friends. I like most subjects, but not all of them! In the evening I sometimes visit friends or stay at home and listen to music, and at the weekends I like going swimming or horse-riding.

At the moment I’m working very hard because I have exams soon, so I’m spending a lot of time in the library.

  I’m looking forward to hearing from you. Write soon!

  Best wishes,

  Mary
