English Examination First Term

Dear Sonia
I am glad to write my first letter. My name is Lamia . I am from London but I reside with my grandmother in Chi Chester. I am a pretty teenager of medium height with afair complexion . I study at King Charles’ school . Every morning , I go to school on foot because itis not far from home . After school I usually go to the super café to check my e-mail . By the way , I have just received a letter from an English young girl of 16. She is looking for pen friends . Her name is Linda . She is tall but rather slim . Linda says that she has a lot of hobbies , including painting and reading books . She is interested in other people’s culture and customs .
Linda and her friends generally spend their leisure time in the youth club in Manchester . They often rehearse plays they have written . Linda's family is quite large .
She has three sisters and two brothers . Her father is a manager in a small chocolate factory and her mother is a secretary in the same factory . The olivers are a well known family .They regularly give parties and invite many people . So Linda and her sisters have much to do on such occasions . Email Linda if you want to be her pen friend .
Please answer me soon and tell me about you and your family .
Yours faithfully
Lamia
