       Dear  Ullan Jenar,
     I am very sorry for this late reply. I arrived three days ago after a journey that took about four hours. I used every type of transportations I could think of. First, I got a taxi to the airport, then a plane to Polonia airport. After that I took a bus to Pondok Setia Budi Medan and finally got myself in a pedicab to Harry’s house our cousin. I slept for two hours  on the first night because I was so tired.
     I started my English lesson the day after I arrived in International School. The school is in the center of the town. There are twelve people in my class, and I am the only Javanese person so I speak English all the time. Our uncle’s family  which I am staying with is nice and I am not sharing a bedroom, so I am quite happy.
     I am going to Toba lake on Sunday. I will send you a post card of your favourite place, Samosir island.

Love,
Rosa Dyarma

Text Box: Cooking and microorganisms
(We learnt that yeast is a fungus and that it is a microorganism)

Today we made Pita bread. We used yeast and flour to make it. We made the dough and then needed to knead it until it’s smooth and flat. I moulded and made it to a love-heart shape. Then we cooked it under the grill for several minutes so it’s perfectly cooked. I think my Pita bread is going to be delicious.

Text Box: Last autumn I was in India during Diwali, the “Festival of Lights” which takes place every year to celebrate the victory of good over evil. This festival lasts for five days and is held at the end of October or in the first week of November.
Preparations began weeks before the event. People cleaned their homes and painted wonderful designs called rangolis on the walls and floors. They bought beautiful new clothes and jewelry to wear during the festival. Women made delicious sweets which were better than any others I have ever tasted.
During the five days of Diwali, every home and temple was decorated, inside and outside, with lovely clay lamps and colourful candles. After dark, the whole neighbourhood glittered with thousands of tiny lights, as though in a fairy tale. Excited children set off firecrackers, and at first I was frightened by the loud bangs, but the spectacular display was so fascinating that I soon joined in the spirit of celebration.
Diwali is a deeply moving festival. I am very grateful I had the chance to share in this celebration of peace and harmony. I have fond memories of the experience, and in particular I will never forget how friendly and generous people were.Read the text to answer  questions 19 to 24
