DESCRIBING A PHOTO

In this photo I can see two women. They are parading up and down the catwalk. On the left we can see a young woman. I think she is in her twenties. She is wearing a blue checked miniskirt, a grey patterned T-shirt and black and yellow shoes. She is tall and thin. She has got fair skin and wavy dark hair. Se seems serious. On the right we can see a young man. She is about twenty too. She is wearing brown checked trousers, a wool sweater, a light brown belt and a coat. She is carrying a bag. She is thin, tall and she has straight, blonde hair. She seems sad. In my opinion, it is an interesting photo if you like fashion.

FORMAL EMAIL

Dear Editor, I’m writing in response to an article I came across yesterday’s edition of your newspaper. I was disappointed to read comments stating that foreign language classes should not be compulsory in secondary schools. As a student of Spanish who is about to do my school leaving exams, I would like to point out the benefits of learning a language. Firstly, there is an advantage of communicating in a one language when you are travelling. Languages can also help your career. When you are searching for a job, you are more likely to get an interview if you list another language on your application form. Next, languages learning is not only allows us to communicate, but also improves our abilities in another areas. Finally, languages are essential in promoting unterstanding between cultures. Kind regards, Berta Crous
