Dear Katia,

Hello! Thanks for your last letter. I think it's great to have a new English pen friend so I decided to write you for becoming friends.

Personal Presentation

My name is (nome) and I'm 13 years old. I'm going to (nome scuola) secondary school and now I'm doing exams. Do you do exams in the last year of secondary school?

My name is (nome), I’m (anni) and I live in (luogo di residenza), in Italy and my country is beautiful. I go in “Vincenzo Ruffo” school. In the last letter you ask me to told you about my summer city. This summer I go to Policoro and it’s fantastic here. The weather is sunny and hot and the hotel is comfortable. From my room, all I can see the beach. The city near the hotel is very small but it’s very beautiful and the people are very friendly. And in the city I have met new friends. The names of my new friends are James, he is 15 years old, Kate, she’s 14, she’s very funny, they are brother and sister. Now I’m staying in my room and I’m getting to go to dinner. Later James, Kate and I are going on a pub.

My brother Michele, he’s 10, and my sister Francesca, she’s 9, go to the Elementary school. Have you got any brothers or any sisters?

Exams and Favorite Activities

I'm so tired 'cause in these days I'm having exams. I must study especially for the oral exam.

Now I must leave you, I'm sorry.

I love sports and the dance.
