WRITING: A FORMAL LETTER


Dear Sir or Madam,
I'm writing to get information about lottery funds for a community project in my little town.
St.Miquel de Campmajor, is a small and beautiful town near to Banyolas.

There aren't many interesting places in and around the town, and there aren't many villagers too. The place is very quiet and clean but is a bit isolated. For that reason, I would install a network of buses to transport people to Banyolas.

This would be great for the village!
I would be great if you could send me information about lottery grants. If you have any questions about my project, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours faithfully,

Clara Boix
Village committee
Town Hall

CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC


Based on Sophie Kinsella's bestselling novels, Confessions of a s Shopaholic is about a journalist,
Rebecca Bloomwood, who is addicted to shopping, Considering today's economy, this is either the best time for a movie about someone who buys too many clothes, or the worst.

AN ARTICLE: LIVING WITH A DISABILITY

My name's Clara and I'm deaf since 2000. I lost the hearing when I was traveling with my family in a brutal car accident. It was a very hard thing to accept.

My life has changed a lot since I am deaf but now I already know the language of the deaf so my life is becoming easier.
I don't need much help because I have learned to adapt to my new situation, but on of the things that annoy me is that people feel sorry for me. I think that they don't understand that I'm a normal person...
People usually want to help me, but I don't need usually help!!

In conclusion, being deaf is not a disadvantage if you try to improve yourself. If you do that, you will become the happiest person in the world.
