Unit 9: An email to an internet forum

Hi

My name’s Mireia Feliu and I live in South London.

I live in the area when the young people spend all their time hanging around on the street so there are sometimes problems with vandalism and graffiti. As a result there isn’t anywhere for young people to, because there aren’t any factories for them.

I think the solution is build a youth café.

going to do?

Aierim: Don’t panic. Let’s phone the coastguard.

The rescue happened while we were on holiday in Africa last August. It was really amazing.

I was with my family and we were in a Restaurant. We were eating quietly while we hear a man screaming. We go fast and we ran to the beach. My father quickly pulled the sea and was saved.

The man almost not breathing well, we took him to the clinic and waited in the hall. When the doctor came out we asked for it, she said she was saved by luck.

We thanked and we went back home. It was an unforgettable experience.
