Transactional letter

Dear editor:

I am writing to you because I am very upset about the newspaper report that talk about the demonstration of an environmental group. I am one of the demonstrators and in the report there are some mistakes that I want to correct to you.

First of all, we not only were protest against the by-pass because the extinction of snail, we were against of the destruction of woodland, we want to protect it too. When you report said that we were around 200 people is completely wrong, because we were over 2000! And that we were only unemployed youngsters is an insult to us because there were many local residents in the demonstration too.

And finally when you said that we sat in the road and chanted slogans at workers and police, that’s no true we were doing a silent demonstration. I think that your newspaper is wrong in many thing of demonstration.

I would like to meet with you or if you can send a reporter that interview to me, because I want to explain which is our purpose with the demonstration and tell what really happened at the demonstration last weekend, we only are worry about the woodland and animals of Oldbury. I really hope you, like editor correct the mistakes of this report.

What can ordinary people do to help in the fight against crime?


Crime one of the strongest problem of our society today, for that is important for us know how fight against this. We must be well informed about which are the most frequent crime in our city, like citizens. There are many ways to prevent crime, of course prevent is better than cure. Obviously we can do much for prevent the crime in our community because who is better to care our city than ourselves.

The best way to prevent the crime is education and takes conscientiousness like community. Like parent we have teach to our children how the crime attack to us and have responsibility to care ourselves, maybe we have to create like community some groups to incentive how we can protect to each others.

On the other hand, we have to be responsibility and care ourselves and prevent to be attack; we have to believe in justice if we were affecting for any crime like robbery or black mail, etc.

For that, we must have conscience that only us are responsible about ourselves, and to care our relatives, and care our community.

A horror story



I got an eerie feeling when I heard a strong noise in the backyard. It was a cold nigth, I put my coat and turn on lights and went outside to saw what was making the terrifying noise. When I opened the door my dog came run faster to me and hid under the sofa, I walked three steps and I saw, it was the ugly thing that I had seen in my life. It was like a little person, he was dressing a green suit and a hat, he was grouch and dig a big hole in the ground. I tried to close I saw closer but my legs didn't respond to me I was really terrifying and suddenly he saw me.

The best way to travel in...Santiago


Each day thousand of people travel around all city. Santiago is not too big but had a lot of town like, Puente Alto, Providencia, La Florida, etc. and you have to travel around this for go to work or university or school, and the best way to travel is in subway.

Subway is the best form to travel because conect every place in Santiago, maybe Maipu not yet, but the government is construying a extention of "linea 5". Subway is confortable and quiker than buses transantiago and cheaper I don't know, because I pay schoolar fare and is the same in all public transport, but if I'm noyt wrong the fare is expensive in subway, but it doesn't matter, because it be worth.

In my life I travel everyday in subway to go to university, at 6:45 am I took subway in Puente Alto station is too crowded, because the most of people enter In their jobs at 8:00 am. In the afternoon is crowded too, because the same people go back home after a long working day.

I like a lot subway because is confortablke and I arrive quikly to my home,the ting that I don't like about subway is ladys who yell, offend and fight with you for one seat, but is the only negative point.

Subway is improve day by day and is better for all type of people, like old and physically handicapped people. I prefer subway in all way because is closer to all people.

Live in the city... Advantages and disadvantages

I love live in a city. Live in a city is exciting every day. The countryside is not bad at all, but I prefer city; because everything is near supemarkets, malls, schools, hospitals, etc. the country side is quiet and you can breath fresh air,but is too boring, is great if you want peaceful vacations or holidays, but for live there definilety is not my style. both have advantages and disadvantages, but today is the city that I want to talk.

I live in the city since that I born, like 25 years. The city have a lot of noise, horn cars, music, people yelling, etc. It doesn't have fresh air, on the contrary it has too much pollution; except when you go outskirts, like San Jose de Maipo or Pirque; there is fresh air. The city isn't peaceful place, has a lot of delinquency and for that is too dangerous early morning. People in the city live faster than in countryside, they are always in a hurry. Some cities never sleep, like New York, but I would like like in New York city, but isn't posible, But I can dream.

On the other hand we had the positive aspects in the city is all near to you supermarkets, malls, etc. If you want have a great time with friends you have a lot of pub and discoteques or fantasilandia if you want adrenalin. I like city because the country is bored to me maybe the fresh air but in outskirts of city you have a lot of picnic and camping zones with rivers, mountains, a lot of trees and is a the best option if you want time with nature and peace.

I like city and this never change, because I don't imagine my life without nooise and hurry.

Complaining Letter

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writting to express my disappoinment with the services that your travel agency offered to last week.

First of all, the popular "eco" hypermarket was too crowded and I had to do long queues at checkouts, it wasn't confortable and enjoyable for me at all. Spent the afternoon in Boulogne is totally a lie, we stayed there for only one hour, I didn't see shopping streets near to harbour or visited the Hatue Ville, I don't know what are this cities or streets. Another thing was the restaurants, all restaurants were close, why? Did you any reservation?

However, the travel was unbearable too, the air-conditioning didn't work in the whole travel, was very hot! and you didn't have any cold drinks, as a result I dind't have a pleasant return to my home. Oh! Furthermore i got home at 11.30 pm, not 9.00 pm like your advertisement said.

As you can imagine, I am not very happy with this "travel", I hope you that your company give an explanation about this and respond give some money back for this unpleasant travel.

Yours faithfully.

D. Rocha

Descriptions


In 2006 my friend Pepe went to my house for offer me a job like host in a radio program, he said that I must be in the radio at 17.00 o'clock for a meeting. I felt very nervous about the meeting. When the hour was approach I take my personal things and i went out to my house, I took a taxi to the radio, I met with Pepe in the front of radio and we rang the bell... I had never imagined that destiny had prepared to me.

When the door opened I saw him for the first time; I think yeah he is really good-looking, I like his style, but I couldn't notice the way he was looking at me.
We fixed right away, our personalities was very different but at the same time very compatibles, he was very sociable even too sociable for me, because I'm too shy when I meet someone. he was very kind with me, I felt confortable with his company. Around a month later we became very close like we had always were the best friends, My impression about him never changed, he always was the most hadsome and cheerful man for me... I couldn't notice when I falling in love with him.

Now he is my boyfriend we are togheter for three years, we had a beautiful daugther, whose name is Sofia, she is 4 months, we are a family now, a litlle but happy family, and I love him that the first time that saw him, even when I don't notice my love for him.

The Notebook


The Notebook is a drama/romanctic movie. The epic love story begin when and old man who reads a notebook to a old and invalid woman called Allie, he regulary visits to this woman and reads and brings to live the story from the notebook. The story is about a couple who is separated by world war II, and passionately reunited seven years later. Allie suffers a disease called senile dementia and the words from the old man give to her the change to relive her turbulet youth and the passionately and unforgettable love that they lived.

As teenagers, Allie (Rachel McAdams) and Noah (Ryan Gosling) quickly falling in love each other, but a big problen is in between in them, Allie comes to a uper-class family and her parents don't like Noah. The parents of Allie plan to separate them. Seven years past and they meet again but another problem is between them... Allie is engaged, now Allie has to choose between her fiancè and her love of youth Noah.

This beautiful tale has a particulary special meaning to an older gentleman (James Garner) who regulary reads the timeless love sotry to his aging companion (Gena Rowlands). Who is the old man who reads the story Noah or the fiancè?

I love this movie is one of my favourite, I like beacuse is amazing how much love exist only in one person and how much he is willing to do for her, he never lost hope for love and for his beloved. I definitely recommend this movie, you cry, you laugh and have a good time. Like advise if you have a boyfriend watch the movie with him.

Another letter...

Just one other thing - what will the weather be like when I get there? (Just so I'll know what clothes to pack!)

Hi!

I'm really exited with your visit I can't wait you arrive. Well maybe the day you arrive to the country I will be in the work, but the maid is always in my apartment.

Well the airport have buses to bring closer to the nearest subway station (I think is Pajaritos station). When you take the train go to Tobalaba direcction and combine with line 4 and there you can relax for a while because you have to get out of in the last station Plaza Puente Alto; there you have two alternatives you can take the bus in the bus stop (it is in front of square)you have to take F 11 and get out of in bus stop of Holanda street and go back to street to Noruega street. The other alternative is take the collective taxi number 4005, 4038 or 4050 all this get to my house you have to get out of in Noruega street.

As far as I'm concerned I recomended to you take the subway and after take a collective taxi is easier for you and confortable and isn't expensive more than two thousand pesos you don't spend.
The weather here is cold (is winnter) you must have to bring your coat and boots and and a umbrella maybe rains one of this days.

Well this are my recomendations I hope you get ok to my home I will bw waiting for you.

Lost of love

Daniela

"The Computer has greatly improved our lives today"

Maybe the computers are one of the most important progress of technology, and in the majority of homes in the whole world have one of this artefacts, and if you don't have one you can go to a ciber and do whatever you have to do.

The advantages of computer are several, like you can work faster than if you work without it. with help of internet you can communicated with other people, like friends, people from others countries. And now you have the laptos or notebook or newer netbooks, this are the new notebook for the students in schools.

The disadvantages there are coming with internet, because internet have much trash like virus when you dowload someting or in you e-mails you recived spam etc. The major damage is when you become in a dependent of computer, you use more than you need.

In conclusion, the computer is a greant progress for technology but, you must know how to use, not in excess, just used when you need it.

Thousand miles Vanessa carlton

VANESSA CARLTON

"A Thousand Miles"

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of me

'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in your
Precious memories

'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

And I, I
Don't want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I, I
Don't....

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you...

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
If I could
Just hold you
Tonight
