Reading
___
12 Read the email. Complete 1–6 with sentences
a–g. There is one extra sentence.
Hi Keith
___ It’s so good to hear from you. 1 e You say it’s been 15
/7 years, but I think it might be more like 20. I’m sure that
the last time we saw each other was just after the
graduation party. I still look at the photos from that night
sometimes. They’re so funny.
So you’re married to Safi! I’m so happy for you both.
Well, you guys were always close at college so it doesn’t
surprise me at all. I spoke to Rich Paisley on Thursday
night (we hang out at least once a week) and he said that
the last time he’d heard from you, you had two boys. 2___
In my experience, one boy is enough so two must be
really hard work! We’d had two daughters before Robbie
was born and it is so different. The girls keep him out of
trouble though.
I met Dima almost six years ago. Actually, it’s our
anniversary next month. We were living in Amsterdam,
where we were both working on a recycling project, and
really hit it off. 3___ If you and I hadn’t done that
Environmental Studies degree, I might never have met
her. Are you still working in the environment industry? I
hope so. Since we were studying together, things have
really changed and there’s so much more optimism about
being able to do something positive for the planet. I really
feel like we’re making a difference now. A few years ago,
I was really pessimistic about the future. Hopefully, things
will continue to improve.

___ She was the girl who had the hotel in Chamonix that
we stayed at for New Year back in our third year at uni.
/8 She still has the same hotel and we get together every
New Year now. It’s a lot of fun for us and the kids. I
mentioned you’d been in touch and she said she’d love for
you and your family to come over for the celebrations this
year. 5___ Dima’s also looking forward to meeting you, so
you have to come for a visit to our place before then. It
sounds like our kids are similar ages so it would be fun for
them. We’ve got plenty of room in the house and we’d
love for you all to stay over.
6
___ We’re going camping at a lake near where we live
and I can’t remember where I’ve put the tents or sleeping
bags. Reminds me of that trip we took down to Cornwall
when we forgot just about everything important –
including the tent!
Great to catch up with you and I look forward to hearing
from you again very soon.
Take care
Ken
a Anyway, I need to get ready for the weekend.
b Have you had more since?
c We were married two years later.
d I hope you’ll be able to come.

last in touch.
