Hi, Mom!
I arrived in Cambridge early this morning. Sally met me at the bus station, and we went to her
house. She lives outside Cambridge. It’s a very quiet neighborhood, and all the houses have
gardens. There are some shops across the street and a restaurant around the corner. It’s very
different from our neighborhood in New York!
In the afternoon we went to the center of town. We walked around Trinity Street and St. John’s
Street. There are some beautiful colleges, such as St. John’s College and Trinity College. Next
to the colleges, there are some interesting gift shops, and across the street there’s a really old
bookstore.

Read the descriptive paragraphs and complete the chart.
I have done two things I am really happy about. First, I’ve traveled to several countries. On
these trips, I learned a lot about other cultures. I also tried many interesting foods and made
many friends. Second, I’ve found a job in a law office. This is good experience for me
because I want to be a lawyer. Also, the salary is good and the people are friendly.
There are two things I’ve never done that I’ve always wanted to do. First, I’ve always wanted
to travel to Egypt. I’ve never been there, but I love to read books and watch movies about it.
I think Egyptian history is fascinating! Second, I’d like to learn to play the drums. I’ve always
wanted to join a band because I think it would be a lot of fun. It’s a good way to make some
money, too!
