Dear Wai Meng,
I would like to visit the Statue of Liberty. I have read that the bluish-green colour is not painted on.
It is a natural green tarnishing when the copper statue is exposed to the air. Dont you think that it
is really a wonder? The tarnished green becomes a protective cover for the whole statue. I have
read a lot of wonderful sites in the United States. By going to see the Liberty Statue, we can also
visit other interesting places there.
Thank You.
Sincerely,
Baranee

SAMPLE ANSWER:
Based on How I Met Myself by David A. Hill, an event that changed the life of John Taylor was when
he met his doppelganger in Felka utca. This event changed Johns personality.
Before meeting his doppelganger, John was an honest man. However, he became secretive after
meeting his doppelganger. He was not truthful. John did not tell Andrea about this incident. John
thought that Andrea would not understand him. John came home late. Andrea asked why he was
late. John lied to Andrea. He said that he argued with Peter at work. He told Andrea that he and
Peter talked about it at Zsolts caf. Actually, John went to Zsolts caf to find the man. The next
few days, he always came home late. Andrea was unhappy. She thought that John had another
woman. They argued with each other.
John always spent time thinking about his doppelganger. He could not concentrate on his work. He
always made Andrea angry. This was shown when John and his family went to Hungary. They spent
New Year with Andreas family. John did not join the family activities very much. Instead, he sat
around thinking about his doppelganger. Andrea was mad. He wanted John to pay more attention to
his family. John tried to be a better husband and father. However, that did not last long.

Andrea about this information. He told Andrea that he wanted to find out what happened on 18
January. Andrea was very angry. John could not stop thinking about his doppelganger. Then, John
pleaded Andrea to follow him to Felka utca on the second 18 January. John hoped that they could
meet his doppelganger again. Andrea was not happy with the idea. But she agreed to help John for
the last time.

doppelganger. John was desperate to find out what happened on 18 January. He lied to his boss.
