WRITING: JOLLY CLUB

Welcome to JOLLY Club. Here, near the camping in Banyoles, you can relax or do some exercise. Our club is the best because the people who work here are honest and responsible. Georgina Latre and Emma Vilarasau are guests here.


At the JOLLY club we have three gyms, so if you're energetic enough you can do some exercise. Or perhaps you can spend time relaxing in the resort and sunbathing.


We also have a plastic surgery specialist, so you can change your image. After two or three days at the club, people feel better and they look ten years younger!

WRITING: A COMPOSITION


In my opinion our lives will be more relaxing and healthier in the future. We won't create any pollution, and scientist will create super-robots which will do difficult jobs. We might have more time for hobbies.

I think it's important that we colonise space. If we don't live on other planets we have don't enough food or space for all of the people on Earth.

In general I feel optimistic about the future. I believe that people will have more technologies and live in peace.

WRITING: An Email

Hi Andrew,

I'm writing this email from Spain. The weather is really warm at the moment but I really like it here because the people are very friendly and cheerful. We're driving driving around the country and we're stooping in different places.

We've just arrived here in Banyoles. In the last few days we've driven over beautiful forests and we've seen a fantastic lake. So far I've really enjoyed the food and we haven't had any bad experience.

Tonight we're staying in a small hotel near the city of Banyoles. Tomorrow we're going to leave the car here and we're going to travel by bike through Rocacorba. It will be interesting.

I hope you're well, Andrew. I'll write again soon.
