Unit 4: Exercise 4
Read the postcard from Tom to his friend Adam. Choose True or False.
Dear Adam,
Hello from Coconut Island! I am having a brilliant time relaxing on the beach with my aunt
and uncle and my brother. It’s a shame that my parents aren’t here – they had to stay at home
and work. The beach has beautiful white sand, palm trees and clear blue water. I went
swimming this morning, and the water was lovely. It wasn’t too cold. There are a lot of
different activities to do on the beach. Yesterday morning me and my brother tried surfing.
He was much better than me, but I still enjoyed it. My favourite activity was the boat trip
yesterday afternoon. We saw dolphins and a lot of colourful fish. Yesterday evening, we had
dinner in a restaurant next to the beach and ate fish. I usually don’t like fish, but the food at
the restaurant was delicious!
Best wishes,
Tom
