Task 1. 

Look at the jumbed sentence below! Arrange them into good dialogue!

Task 2. 

Read the following Context! Then, brainstorm the ideas and give your opinion based on that context.

Benny has sent a letter to Rudy asking for his opinion about his problem in managing his fund. Benny has not had much enough. He is confused to decide whether to buy a bicycle to take take him to school or to run a small farm in sheep animal husbandry. As Rudy, write a letter to Benny giving response and opinion about his problem.


Answer: 

Dear Benny,

Thank you for your letter asking for my opinion about what you should decide about buying a bicycle to take you to school or running a small farm in sheep animal husbandry. I'm sure your problem is as confusing as you say it is.

If I were you, I would decide to run the small farm. By doing this, you will make money so that it can help you to buy a bicycle later. While you are running the farm, you can go to school by public transportation. You should be patient first because you will get benefits later. Before running the farm, you have to make sure that you will have planned the strategy to develop the farm. I think you could ask your family to help you do that.

I hope this would be some of help. Please write a letter again to tell me how things are going on or if you need any more help. Sincerely,

Rudy
