You have 30 minutes to do this task. You have received a letter from your English–speaking pen friend Ben.
| … My family owns a small corner shop in our town. It's a family bakery. We sell fresh bread, buns, cakes and pies. My mum wants me to go into the family business after I finish school. But I'm not sure the bakery business is what I want to do in future… … What are you career plans? What two criteria will be the most important in choosing your future job? What career do your parents advise you to choose?... |
Write her a letter and answer her 3 questions. Write 100–120 words. Remember the rules of letter writing.
Dear Ben,
Thanks for your last letter. I'm sorry for not writing you for so long. I spent time doing a school project.
If I were you, I would join the family business. Talking about my career plans I would like to become a lawyer. I think that it's a very noble and respected post. The main criteria for my future job are usefulness and profitability. I want to be useful for other people but the financial part is also significant for me. My parents advise me to become a doctor but I'm not sure that the job is appropriate for me.
Write back soon.
Best wishes,
Emma
