… and we have this new guy in our school, Patrick - they have just moved in that old house near the cemetery, the one that’s said to be haunted - well, I think he fell for me the day we met, but I’m telling you – the dude is so weird… I’d rather stay away from him. Anyway, we are doing a project on relationships and I need your help. At what age do people usually get married in your country? How has people’s attitude to marriage changed over the last decades? What qualities do you think are important in one’s partner?

Anyway, I have just passed my driving test!
Write an email to Lucy.
In your message:
- answer his questions;
- ask 3 questions about the driving test.
Write 100-140 words.
Remember the rules of email writing.

A)
He offered TO LEND me the money. I didn't like TAKING it but I had no other way out.

b) What was in the letter? I don't know. I didn't want TO OPEN it as it wasn't addressed to me.

c) Try TO AVOID BEING  late. He hates BEING kept WAITING.

d) He heard the clock striking seven and knew it was time for him TO GET up.

e) I can hear the bell RINGING but nobody seems TO BE COMING TO OPEN the door.

f) Did you advise him TO GO to the police? - No, I didn't like GIVING any advice on such a difficult matter.

g) I'm not used to DRIVING on the left.

h) It's pleasant TO SIT by the fire at night and HEAR the wind BLOWING outside.

i) It's no use WRITING to him, he never answers letters. The only thing TO DO is TO GO and SEE him.

j) Ask him TO COME in. Don't keep him STANDING at the door.
