Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Комарова, Ларионова 9 класс, Русское слово: Writing dossier
An email
1 Read the email. Why is Alice asking for advice?
Hi Charlie,
How are you? I hope you had a great holiday. Tell me all about it! I’ve got so much to tell you. Do you remember that I went to the disco session at the ice rink last week? Well, I met a really nice guy there called Joe! We talked for ages and I gave him my mobile number and he said he’d ring me. Guess what… he texted me yesterday and asked if I wanted to see him again!
The problem is that I can’t decide what to do. I mean, we’ve got loads in common and we get on really well but he doesn’t actually live here — he was just visiting his cousins. What do you think I should do?
Bye for now.
Alice
PS Please email me back tonight — I’m confused and I really need your advice!
2 Read the Language focus. Find six contractions in the email.
Language focus: contractions
We usually use contractions in informal writing such as emails and blogs.
I’ve = I have
Can’t = can not
3 Rewrite the sentences using contractions.
1 He said that he had been to London before.
2 I could not wait to meet him.
3 He said he would like to see me.
4 He told me that he was not going to be late.
5 I have decided that it is not a good idea.
6 If she had known he dated Ann, she would never have called him.

4. Sample email:
Hi Alice,
Thanks for your email. I had a great holiday, thanks — I went to the seaside with my family and we had a really relaxing time.
I’m really pleased for you! Joe sounds nice, and it’s great that you got on so well. I don’t think it’s a big problem that he lives in a different town, but you should ask him where exactly he lives.
I think it could be a good idea to see him again if you really like him. If you meet again, you should go somewhere quiet, like a café or a park, so you can talk properly and get to know each other better.
Let me know what he says!
Bye for now,
CharliePS Where does Joe live exactly?
