Life in the past and present
Your grandparents’ teenage days
When my grandparents were young, they wrote letters to keep in touch with others. They used pens and paper. Their letters were sent by post and it took several days to reach people. While they were waiting for the reply, they might feel worried.
Now
Today we write emails to keep in touch with our friends. Our emails can reach others in a second and we can get a reply in a short time. We do not use paper to write emails, so we can save many trees and help protect the environment.
Exercises
Write an Internet post about the topic. Follow the example.
