-eneral Writing Sample Task 1 #59


Marina has just started a new course at college and her tutor has asked her to write him a
letter telling him something about herself. She has made ten mistakes in verb tenses in her
letter. Find and correct them.

Dear Tutor,

I am coming to Brighton College from Singapore, where I was a student for ten years. I did already
take examinations in Singapore in English, Biology, Computer and Maths. My highest score is for
Computer: I got grade A.

When I was a student in Singapore I also have a part-time job in a shop. My uncle owns a supermarket
and so I helped him in the evenings. I used to worked there four nights a week and I think this was very
good experience for me.

At the weekends, I usually played volleyball with friends or, if the weather's bad, we have been to the
theatre, which is very popular in Singapore. Because of my part-time job, I also did spend a lot of time
studying at the weekend.

I didn’t go to many other places. My father took me to Thailand once. Three weeks after we had
returned he also went to Malaysia and took the whole family.

This is a brief description of my background.

Best wishes,

Marina
