Task 1. Jim has decided to come to Ann’s place for his holiday. An writes the letter giving directions to her house. Underline the words and phrases you can use to give directions. Then write them in your notebook
Dear Jim,
I’m very pleased to hear that you have decided to come here for the holiday. I’m writing to tell you how to go to my house from Railway Station.
Now, when you come out of the station, turn right.
Keep walking for about 5 minutes, you’ll see a small bridge. Go over the bridge, walk past a medical center, then take the first turning on the left. Keep on until you come to the end of the road, turn right. Walk past a small shop. Mine is the second house after the shop, opposite the bookshop. It’s the one with a green gate. You can miss it. I have enclosed a map so that you can follow my directions easily.
Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Love,
Ann

Dear Jim,
I’m very happy to hear that you will come here for the summer holiday. I’m writing to tell you how to get to my house from the Roston Railway Station.

Go over the bridge, go along the street past the medical center and the car park then take the second turning on the left. Walk past the Souvenir shop and you will see my house.
