Last month you had an overseas holiday with some friends where you stayed at their house. They have just sent you some holiday photos. Write a letter to your friends. In your letter: 1. thank them for the holiday and the photos 2. explain why you didn't write earlier 3. invite them to come and stay with you

Dear Abhinav and Saxena, How are you both? I hope

this

letter finds you well. I've just received photos, you guys sent me, of our wonderful holiday at your place

last

month. Thank you so much for the lovely photos as they have reminded me of the wonderful moments we had spent together. You pampered me so thoroughly that I feel completely rejuvenated and refreshed after the holidays. It was so kind of you to stay me put at your place in Melbourne. Sorry, it has taken me too long to write back and thank you. The thing is, without boring you with details, I've been put under a huge amount of pressure at work to finish a certain task in an unreasonable timeframe, immediately after I joined my office back in Abu Dhabi. If it were not for the resulting stress clouding my brain, I would've written to you sooner. Anyways, my birthday is coming up on the 22nd of August and I want you guys to join me for the party.

Also

, as

this

is going to be your

first

trip to UAE, you guys must stay with me.

Moreover

, my family would be delighted to meet you both. I really hope you can make it. Take care, Rubina

Teaching a foreign language to students in their primary language, especially at an introductory level, can have several advantages and disadvantages. Let's explore both sides:

Some people believe that allowing children to make their own choices on everyday matters (such as food, clothes, and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. Other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affect them. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Criticisms are concerned that children will be endangered if they are given freedom of choice, while others believe that they will be better equipped to handle consequences in the future of their acts if given such freedom. From my perspective, I opine that children should be allowed to make their own decisions about personal matters.
