Task 3. Read the following letter, then answer the questions
The Marsdens
7425 Lansdowne Road
Bethesda, MD 20812

January 2, 2021
Fred and Sylvia Becker
455 Battery Lane
Bethesda, MD 20814

Dear Fred and Sylvia:

On behalf of the entire Marsden family I would like to thank you for your unflagging support and
kind condolences in recent weeks as we mourned the tragic loss of Raymond.

Without wonderful friends like you to spend time with us and help with daily tasks it would have
been much more difficult for us to suffer through this very difficult period. I especially appreciated
the numerous meals that you prepared and delivered to us as well as the drives to school you
provided for Jane and Charlie. You can't imagine what a help this was to Carl and I as we tried to
focus on Raymond's funeral arrangements while also having to deal with the media.

As you will understand, it is going to take some time before our family can get back to normal after
this senseless tragedy. So, please don't take our lack of contact during this period as any more than
us taking the time we need to try to get back to some semblance of a normal life.

Please accept our heartfelt thanks for all that you have done.

Sincerely grateful,

Susan and Carl

assignment and I hope you’re not angry with me. I miss you so much and I write this letter because I want

not be accepted into Indonesian university, and they suggested to choose another university. but you are
the only one who supports me and give me ancouragement.Thanks to you I became confident will be
accepted. I studied hard by myself. I studied at school, home, and even went to the library until midnight.
You know, I’m very ambitious because I want to be a good engineer someday. And guess what? I was
accepted into Indonesia University!

I really happy and enjoy of engineer lecturing because there are very good facilities with competence
lecturers. How about you? Where you apply for college? Hope you enjoy it too. I always pray the best for
