Dear Sir or Madam,

Why should not sell the company?

We are very pleased in to with you our opinion and a possible solution with respect to our opposition to the board of trustees selling the chocolate factory of our town.

You have to remember that last July the board of trustees announced their plan to sell the chocolate factory to one of its competitors.

We all know that Mr Hershey built the school and that the interest generated by Hershey's $5.6bn gift is enough to finance the school. Another important point is that the tourists visit the town because of the 'magic' created by its image of "chocolate town".

It's important you understand that the buyers may cut jobs and this will be an economic disaster for the town because many people are not from the town and they don't understand that we the residents are protecting a "way of life".

Surely you can see our worry of this situation and we hope that you are in agreement.

Thank you for taking the time to read our reasons. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need further information.

Yours faithfully,
Isabel Cruz

My Reflections Of The Last Week

In the last week we studied the unit 12, I learned more important vocabulary for the business for example: charity, lobby, boycott, demostration, petition, subsidy and others words.

Also I learned to use the gerund (ing) and the infinitive (to + verb), besides with the explanation that you gave and the examples it was easy to understand.

Also I like when we did the dynamics of complete the phrases.

Reflections

Since I initiate the semester always I had the uncertainty on the English teachers because it is something that worries me. I thought that the teachers were the same of always but my surprise was when I find out that we have U.S.A's teacher simultaneously was exciting but at the same time I was afraid because my English level is low and I thought that was going away to going very badly.

I analize the advantages and disadvantages, the advantage is that help me in the pronunciation and to having more vocabulary and the disadvantage in which I am not good for English listens and speak and even more If it was a person of this country. But there do not becomes I very difficult because you help us to pronounce well, correct our mistakes, explain very well and I like much the class although sometimes it is difficult to me to understand it but it is not everyday.

As for the classes I have learned very much, in personal more that in past semesters. In the unit 9 I learned the use of the relative pronouns (who, that and which), also as it changes a word when it is in use as verb, noun or person and now as make my CV or Resume what must contain and what not. In the unit 10, I learned very much vocabulary that not know and I feel well, finally I understood the use of the conditionals (If present, result will; If past, result would or could; If had + past participle, result would have or could have) but that was difficult for me was to understand the expressions (is to, because, in order to, so that, due to,as, given, since) but with the explanation that you gave in the class and the exercises I learned. In the unit 11 I learned the use of the infinitive, it was easy.

I think that the use of the blog is very interesting and different from what we did in past semesters, it is a new way of realizing and put in practice our knowledge. I like much and entertain me to do it.

The activities that we realize in class are very interesting. I like very much when you teach the movements of the mouth for a better pronunciation besides the game that we make when to describe a word, it is very interesting because we put in practice our speaking but I like me it was the task of the comic because it is something totally different that other tasks that are in bored and I amuse doing this and I learn better.

In conclusion I feel well taking the class with you already I am not afraid as before, that for anything I am here and I am going to learn very much of this nice experience and because it is the first time that I have a conversation with someone of another country. I will follow taking advantage of everithing what you teach me for put it in practice and I am ready for all.

Thank you for everything and to be sincere to do this practice was difficult but I obtain good things of this.
