Part 1: E-Mail

Dear Ticket Service, I am writing to you about the upcoming magic show that will be held in our city next month.
Our class is extremely excited about this event and would like to attend. We are a group of students from Scheffel Gymnasium, aged between 14 to 15 years, with a total of 28 students.
We would like to know the specific dates of the show, the ticket prices, and if there are any discounts available for students or groups. We would also appreciate further information regarding the duration of the show and if there will be food and drink options available. We are looking forward to your response.
Sincerely, Stefanie Müller

Holidays with your best friend

You: I think it's great that we're going on vacation together. Friend: You're right, but I still have a few questions. First, have you thought about where we should go? You: I'd like to go to the mountains. What do you think about that? Friend: Sounds fantastic! And what about our accommodations? You: We could stay in a hostel to keep costs down, or we could book a cozy hotel. Which do you prefer? Friend: I don't mind a hostel, it could be fun to meet new people. How do you think we should travel? You: I was thinking of taking the train, it's more comfortable. Do you have any friends who want to come along? Friend: A couple of our classmates have already asked me, I'm sure they'd be up for it. And what about the activities we will do during the vacation? You: We could bike the nearby trails, hike, and even try some water sports by the ocean if we end up near one. The possibilities are endless!
