Farid,

Before you leave tomorrow morning for university, please reply my message. What should
my friends and I do during the school holiday? Should we go camping, fishing or jungle
trekking? You may have other suggestions.

Farhan

In about 80 words, write a message to your Farhan about your suggestion.

Suggested answer:

Dear Farhan,

I’m happy that you’re asking me for advice. In my opinion, I suggest that you go camping.
Sleeping under the stars is better than being a couch potato. Besides, you can be closer to
nature while learning to set up the tents, cook and do outdoor activities with your friends. If
you camp near the river, you can easily go fishing. You can also go jungle trekking while
camping but don’t get lost! Enjoy yourself and send me some pictures.

From,
Farid
