ACTIVITY 2 HOW TO WRITE YOUR SUMMARY Dear Editor, I am writing this letter to express my appreciation to all Malaysians who e

my visit to Malaysia a meaningful one. Upon reaching Kuala Lumpur International Airport, I took a taxi to Kuala L city. The taxi driver greeted me with a warm smile and showed me to his taxi. He was also kind enough to recommend places of interest that I should visit in your country. Over the next few weeks, I travelled around the country. I visited Melaka, Langkawi, Pulau Redang and Genting Highlands, just to name a few. In Langkawi, I had the opportunity to be with the locals and also enjoy home-cooked dishes. I was truly touched by their friendliness and hospitality. It was a wonderful experience! What I found unique about Malaysia is the way people of different races an religions live peacefully as one. I noticed this from the way Malaysians celebrat ed their National Day. Clearly, the way everyone came together is an excellent example of tolerance

and understanding. This is what Malaysia should highlight to the rest of the worl d. Let me say terimakasih to all those who have made my stay a memorable one. I will definitely come again and I would also promote Malaysia to all my friends back in England.

PRACTICE 3 Although people generally say that television is bad for children, research has p roven otherwise. It has been found that TV is an interactive tool that encourages children to deve lop their social and communicative skills. By watching TV, they are more carefree, open and find it easy to communicate with others. TV also helps them develop their English Language skill through programmes like S esame Street and Playhouse Disney. It is no secret that their listening abilities are e nhanced as well as their speaking and grammar skills. Ultimately, TV also provides them a cheap avenue to firs-class knowledge through channels like National Geographic, Discovery, Animal Planet, TV IQ and the various other e ducational mediums available. Clearly, TV has plenty to offer to our children. It is a waste if parents misunde rstood the wealth that provides to their children and prevent them from watching it on the e xcuse that it spoils them.

Write a summary on the advantages of television to our children. Begin with:

Watching TV brings about the many advantages to children, such as ............
