 MY HOME VILLAGE

Task 1. Read the text and answer the questions.

Dear Shakira, Thank for your last letter. I am happy to read your story about your home village. It is a really wonderful village for me. My village lies between two beautiful mountains. It has not only fresh water but also clean air. There is a nice lake behind my yard. I spend my spare time there not only for swimming but also for fishing  with my school mates. I hope we can swim in this lovely lake someday. Cheers, Windy
