Preparation for the exam: Write an infornal reply to this letter

Dear Maria,

I´m really happy that you are going to arrive in my country. I’m making some arrangement for your coming. It’ll be great!!

Well, here I give you some instructions . First one, when you arrived at the airport of Chile you must take a bus and then the metro from station Los Heroes to La Cisterna. From station La Cisterna, when you go out, you have to take a bus that goes to Gran Avenida street and you’ll need to get off at 30 bus stop of gran avenida street. I’ll be waiting for you or if you don’t want, you will have to walk 4blocks and you will see a village. So, at the front of this there is my house number 384.

I have a suggestion to make about the clothes you’ll have to wear, because it is cold in Chile now. We are in autumn season. So, I think you should bring warm clothes.

Well, I must go now because I have get up early tomorrow to go to work. I can’t wait to hearing from you.

Best wishes
Sole.

Using the internet we can communicate each other and access to information faster. Another advantage is that almost the whole world has access to them.

On the negative side, we have to much access to negative information where children can watch forbidden videos. Besides this, there are hackers who use information, damaging big companies and sometimes normal people. Another disadvantage is that people spend too much time in front of computer screens. Wich can contract too many sicknesses, stress, muscular pains, fatigue, visual illnesses, etc. Furthermore, they don’t develop the affective and social side.

Finally, computers have been a great progress for this time, but we have to know how and when use them properly.
