Dear Friend,
Thank you for
your letter. I will try to help you. In my country, there are many big special
days, but the more important is in December every year.
Then it is very
cold with a lot of snow and ice and bad weather. But we go out and visit our
friends and give presents. Children get toys and money and sweets
and are very happy. We eat special meals – soup, meat with potatoe and
muchroomes and then cake with creme and sugar.
It is very good!
Please write me
how you are and when do you come to my country to see this special day?
Your friend

Content 5 All
content is relevant to the task. The target reader
would be fully informed.
Communicative Achievement: 4 Despite a
slightly awkward beginning and end, letter-writing conventions are used to
communicate straightforward ideas.
Organisation: 4 The
letter is generally well organised and coherent. Ideas are
connected within and across sentences using basic linking words: but; then; and,
and a variety of cohesive devices.
Language: 4 A range
of everyday lexis is used appropriately, and simple grammatical forms are used
with a good degree of control. There are minimal
errors, mainly spelling and the question form in the final sentence, which do
not impede.
