The winners could be awarded prizes.
- rock bands could be invited to perform on the stage set in “Poiana Brasov”.
- a contest “karaoke” could also be organized on the other stage.

Situations 1: You are leaving for one week’s vacation. Write a note to your roommate asking him /

during this vacation.
Okay, but now I’d like want to ask you something. When I went out I left my cat with
my left neighbor, Mr. White. Please call on him to take her, and then water plants, open the
windows of the kitchen and bathroom. Don’t forget to feed the cat at least once a day, and
look after her.
Then, call Jane and cancel the Friday’s appointment with her, and apologize to her on
my behalf.

Situations 2: You put your gym bag beside your car when you were unlocking it. You drove away

Hi John,
When you want to call on me you can arrive at my house like this: if you come from
north, you must go straight ahead on the mine road to the center of the village. Then turn left
on into the old lane. You must go about 200 yards. My house is on the right side. It has a
green fence and a red high iron gate. The other neighbor don’t have green fences.
Then, we have a large yard in front of the house with beautiful neat lawn. Right next to
the house we have two rows of roses. We also have an old oak at the back of the house.
The house is not too high but it has a lot of windows and doors. Its roof is red and fairly
high.
If you come from south you will not find me!
By !
See you soon, Bill.
