I thought you might be interested in hearing some news about them. Now John and Peter
are famous musicians so they are always busy. They released a new album last month and
the name album is Summer which is successful.
About Judy, she still studies hard to become an English teacher so I rarely hang out with
her. Richard and Ann got married 5 months ago. They looked so beautiful and happy in

Dear Paul,
How are things? It was nice to hear from you again. I’m sorry I haven’t written for such a
long time. I hope you and your family are well.
I thought you might be interested to know that TV in my country. In Vietnam, there is a
diverse range of programs such as sports, cartoons, entertainment, and music. Personally,
I’m a big fan of cartoons and action films because it’s help me reduce stress and cheer me
up when I feel down.
My favorite TV program is the cartoon name “Tom and Jerry” which is about the cat
chasing (đuổi) the mouse. I spend about 2 hours to watch it in the evening when I have
free time. I think people in Vietnam watch too much TV but it’s not bad. Because the TV
can bring a great source and information. I hope we will talk about more TV.
Give my love to your family. We must try and meet up soon. Look forward to hearing
you.
