• Oxford • Great Britain • October, 17 • Dear Mark, • Thanks a lot for your last letter. Sorry I haven’t written for so long but I was really busy with my mum’s birthday. • You ask me about music. Well, I listen to music very much and usually I prefer to listen to rap. But sometimes I can enjoy some pop songs. What about karaoke, you know I don’t sing well, that’s why it’s not for me. And of course, I can’t play any musical instrument. But I always want to learn to play the guitar, it’s my dream. • You write about a trip to a museum. I think it’s great. What kind of museum is it? And where is the museum located, in your place or in other city? How are you going to get there? • That’s all for now. Hope to hear from you soon. • Best wishes, • Max. • (141)

37 Apple Street Edinburg Great Britain August, 17 Dear Mark, Thanks a lot for your last letter. Sorry I haven’t written for so long but I was really busy with my granny’s birthday. You ask me about music. Well, I seldom listen to music but when I do it, I usually choose pop or classical music. I think it depends on my mood. To tell the truth, I don’t sing well but at parties I do it with pleasure with my friends. As for musical instrument, I visit music school and play the piano a little. I think it’s great you go to a museum. What kind of museum is it? Is the museum in your place or in other city? How are you going to get there? That’s all for now. Hope to hear from you soon. Best wishes, Max.
