DON’S LETTER TO HIS FRIEND
Many people write letters to friends
in other countries. They often write about their families and homes or about
the places they live in.
Here is Don’s letter to his friend.
My name is Donald but my friends call
me Don. We live in Scotland, in a small house far from the town center. Our
town is small, but there is a theatre in it, in the main square.
The streets in my town are not very
wide, but they are very beautiful, with a lot of flowers and trees. Our house
is in the old part of the town. You can see an old square tower in that part.
It was built many centuries ago and nobody knows the name of the architect. The
tower is very high and there is a large bell in it. You can hear it ring twice
a day. The tower has become our tower museum. If you visit this place, turn to
the left and the road will lead you to a beautiful small church. When you cross
the bridge you will be in the new part of the town.
The streets are wide in this part.
There are also many cinemas and shops, as well as some monuments. I have
already been to many places of interest in our town and can show them all to
you. If you have never seen Scotland come and stay with us. May be you’ll find
our life here quite different from your life in the city, but I’m sure you’ll
like our little town.
