You have received a letter from your English-speaking pen-friend Ted who writes: Yesterday I watched an adaptation of W. S. Maugham’s “Theatre”. To tell you the truth, I liked the book more. Why do you think many people prefer watching movies to reading books? Are there any books you can reread many times? Where do you get books to read? By the way, I’ve won the school tennis competition… Write a reply letter to Ted. In your letter: answer his questions; ask 3 questions about the school tennis competition. Write between 100–140 words. Remember the rules of writing informal letters.

Hey Ted,

I'm glad to hear you watched "Theatre"! It's always interesting to see how books are adapted into movies. I agree with you, though - the book usually has more depth and detail. As for why people prefer watching movies to reading books, I think it's because movies are more visually stimulating and require less effort to consume.

I can reread "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen countless times. It's a classic that never gets old! I usually get my books from the library or online stores.

Congratulations on winning the school tennis competition! That's awesome! How did you prepare for it? Who was your toughest opponent? What was the most memorable moment of the competition?

Take care, [Your Name]
