Dear Newspaper Editor:
Everyone knows there are too many traffic
jams in our city. It’s a big problem.
Driving in the city is very slow because so
many people drive cars. There is a traffic
jam every day, and it takes my dad one
hour to drive to work. He is very frustrated.
There is also too much pollution because of
the traffic jams. We need to fix this problem.
There are many solutions. First, people
could take public transportation. There are a
lot of buses in the city. And the subway is
convenient and fast. Second, people could
ride bikes. Biking is an efficient way to get
around, and you get to exercise at the same
time.
I hope the town hall can do something fast
to solve this problem. We will live in a
healthier environment if there are fewer
traffic jams.
Sincerely,
Robert

space is so big, and rockets can travel very
fast. We will travel to Earth for vacation. In
our free time, we will play with robots. Every
family will own a robot.
What other inventions will there be? I think
we will have flying cars that drive
themselves. Instead of going to the movies,
we will watch holograms. We will have
robots that clean the house. This is what I

A very important invention is the digital
camera. It was invented by Steven Sasson
in the 1970s. He worked for Eastman
Kodak, a company that made cameras and
other camera equipment. Pictures you take
with a digital camera can be put on to the
computer. Digital cameras are very popular
today. Most smartphones even have digital
cameras built in to them.
An amazing structure is Angkor Wat in
Cambodia, a country in Southeast Asia. It
was built by King Suryavarman II of the
Khmer Empire. Angkor Wat is very old. It
was built in the 1100s. There are many
temples close to Angkor Wat, and it is a
popular location for tourists to visit.

I have competed in a marathon once.
Running marathons is very difficult. I have
also competed in shot put and javelin

other sports. I have played handball and
badminton. I have also played field hockey

I love visiting new places. There are so
many ways to travel. You can take a car or
you can take a jet. I like flying in jets. Flying
in a jet is more comfortable than riding a
car. If you visit a place on the water, you
can ride a ferry. There are many places to
stay as well. You can stay at a campsite or
you can stay at a hotel. I often stay at
campsites. Staying at a hotel is more
expensive than staying at a campsite.
There are many fun things to do on
vacation. You can go cliff diving or you can
go windsurfing. I would rather go
windsurfing. Cliff diving is more dangerous
than windsurfing. I like to go whale
watching, too. Whale watching isn’t as
exciting as cliff diving, though.
