Dear Paul,
I’m very glad to hear news from you. My hobby is very similar to you. I also spend all my day on
watching TV. In my country, there are many programs on TV for all kinds of people at a variety of ages:
for children, for teenagers, for the young and for the old. I really like these programs. And recently, I am
very interested in one programs for the younger called “Who is the billionaire?” This program’s format is
that one player need to answer all fifteen questions to be a winner and receive the prize up to 100 million
Vietnam Dong. “Who is the billionaire?” is very useful because it provides me with a lot of knowledge in
many aspects of life. I watch TV about one hour every day when I have dinner with my family and before
I go to bed. In my country, people watch TV when they see that one program they like is on TV. I hope
we will talk with each other more in next letter.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours faithfully.

then, because there’ll be a big special party to go to. Lots of our friends and
relatives will be there!

do. Then I can make some plans.

Dear Pat,
It is great to hear from you. I have 3 month holiday in the summer from June to August so that I will
definitely visit your country in July. I still remember that I gave Tim best wish on his birthday in the last
year and promised to meet him some day there in the future. It will be a nice time to attend his birthday
and meet your friends and relatives.
Going camping is also my plan in the trip to your country this time. I trust that it is much more interesting
to go with you. We will have a lot of fun then.
I would like to take further study after graduating. I will do research of some universities in your country.
Could you help me visit these universities when I stay there? I really appreciate your help.
I am looking forward to meeting you in your country soon.
Best regards,
