D.WRITING (Suggeste letter)

Dear Aunt,

How are you? I hope everything has been OK with you since you got home from Australia.

My school’s English-Speaking Club is going to have a meeting next Wednesday morning. We are discussing some solutions to conserve our country’s forests. I think that if you come and talk about conservation in Australia, it will be very useful for us. I’m sure all the club members will be interested in your talk.

Please let me know if you can come.

Remember me to Uncle Linh.

Your nephew,

Nam
