I think next summer will be the best summer of my life because I am going to travel around the USA with three of my favourite friends: Julia, Miguel and Raúl. I cannot imagine this time next summer I will be flying to America.

 

First, we will arrive in New York City at night on July the 2nd. The street lights will be shining for us as we hang around Times square.

 

Next, we will take a plane and visit Chicago. It won't be frozen as it is usually in the winter and we will be even able to travel by boat in Lake Michigan.

 

Then, we will end our trip on the West Coast, probably San Francisco. I have always wanted to travel by streetcar as I used to see on those old-fashioned films.

 

Eventually, by the end of the month we will have returned to Spain after an awesome experience. I am looking forward to doing it.

DESCRIPTION OF A PERSON (1º ESO)

DESCRIBING A PERSON (PRESENT CONTINUOUS Vs. PRESENT SIMPLE +  FREQUENCY ADVERBS) (93)

               

This is my best friend Marta. She is 12 years old and she lives in Burguillos, in a very nice home.

 In this photograph, she is watering some roses because she loves flowers. I remember that day was hot and sunny.

 She is always happy and we usually go for a walk together.

 She likes reading, dancing and playing volleyball, but she hates waking up early to school.

 She never wears trousers but in this picture she is wearing jeans to water the plants.

            She is my best friend and I love her.

DESCRIBING A PLACE (PAST SIMPLE +  COMPARATIVE) (95) 

                                                        

Last summer, I went to the beach in Chipiona, Cádiz.

 Chipiona is not as big as Sevilla, but I loved going there with my family and my friends.

 The beach is hotter than the mountain, that is why I usually go there during the summer. You can do many things on the beach like swimming, walking or dancing at night.

 However, there was a problem last summer. My older brother got lost and we called the police to find him. Luckily, he appeared and everybody was happy.

 It was the best summer of my life.

DESCRIBING A PERSON (MODAL + ORDER OF ADJECTIVES) (127)

       I would like to tell you / Let me tell you a few words / things about my friend Raúl. He is such a nice person!      
      We have known (each other) since we started high school six years ago. In spite of / despite we don’t share similar background – I am from Burguillos and he was born in Castilblanco – we became best friends from the very beginning. You could say he is my brother.
       He is an awesome, tall 17-year-old guy with a great personality. He is easy-going, too. He always gets along with everyone and he never hesitates to help you.
       He is a sporty person, so we sometimes play basketball together. He also likes reading, writing, going to the cinema and driving cars.
       I wish our friendship can last forever.
