Task 1 Last month you had a holiday overseas where you stayed with some friends. They have just sent you some photos of your holiday. Write a letter to your friends. In your letter, · Thank them for the photos and for the holiday · Explain why you didn't write earlier · Invite them to come and stay with you |
Dear Anne,
Hi. How are you going? First of all, I really appreciated with everything. I could spend very pleasant time due to your care during a holiday. I made memorable time and please say hello to your family as well. I already miss them so much, and sorry for being late to contact to you. Since I came back to Australia, I started to work straight away and had some problem with my company because manager suddenly left our company without any notice. That is why I was terribly busy first two weeks. But good thing is I may promote next month to be a manager. Then, it will be easy to make a time to invite your family. So, if you don't mind, could you come over and stay in Australia? Then I will be very happy.
This time, I want to treat you.
Oh~ I should to go out to buy little frame to put our photos. Again thank you so much and I will be waiting your response.
Hopefully see you soon.

Task 2 Some people feel that entertainers (e.g. film stars, pop musicians or sports stars) are paid too much money.Do you agree or disagree? Which other types of job should be highly paid? |
Whenever we turn on the TV, famous celebrities such as film stars, pop musicians or sports stars seem to spend a lot of money on their shopping or purchase enormous mansions. Some people admire the fancy life style like super stars however; some people may feel miserable or think that it is unfair comparing to their income. Of course, there are some reasons why entertainers should not earn high amount of salary but, I believe that celebrities have a right to get lot of money following reasons.
There are thousands of people who want to be a celebrity but only few of them become famous people, involving lots of efforts and patience. For example, Su Jin Kim, who is a famous ballerina in German and America, has practiced incredibly a lot and has endured the serious body pain from the practice. She has become a very famous ballerina in Europe. I believe that, of course, many people want to be a star however, only few people overcome their personal difficulties to become a star.
In other aspects, celebrities are hard to maintain their private life once person become a celebrity. In other words, He or she will lose their normal life instead of being a super star.
As well as, it will be more difficult to maintain their reputation by audiences because viewers always desire to see new and more exciting performance by them comparing to last match or album. Therefore to keep celebrities' reputation, they have to give more effort to attract the audiences otherwise, they will lose the fans and sponsors.
Like these; I have discussed why celebrities deserve to earn a lot of money comparing other jobs. Of course, there are many other ethical jobs in the world however, celebrities also give enough effort for many years to become super stars at the same time, and they may lose their real life. In this aspect, I agree that super stars have right to be paid more money comparing to other jobs.
