3. Correct the e-mail. There are eight
mistakes. Hi Elsie,
How are you doing?
I am in between the classes right now, so I am not doing anything. I’m sitting in the
school cafeteria. All the other people around me are sitting, but I am not hungry. I am
just having a cup of coffee and thinking about my classes.
I’m taking some good classes this semester. We are doing lots of interesting things,
but the classes are tough. Also, there is no time for extra-curricular activities. I am not
getting good grades, so I am a little worried, especially about my math class. But my
classmates and I are studying hard for our next math test. We study together every
Thursday and it’s helping me a lot.
Anyway, that’s the news from here.
Danny
