Task 2
Read the text and do task 2a, 2b, 2c.
Dear Friend,
I've had such an adventurous vacation! I tried rock climbing for the first time, and it was exhilarating! I tried rock climbing at a local climbing gym where they have indoor walls that simulate real rock faces. It was a challenge to use my strength and problem-solving skills to reach the top. I've also recorded birdsongs deep in the forest; the melodies were so enchanting. I went early in the morning, when the birds are most active, and used a special microphone to capture their songs. And guess what? I've even tracked wild animals in their natural habitat. I joined a guided tour where we learned to identify animal tracks and signs. We even saw a deer and some squirrels! It was a truly immersive experience.
I've been wondering, how have you been spending your free time? Have you embarked on any exciting adventures lately? I'm eager to hear all about it!
Warmly, Mary
