Read Matteo’s email to Jason and answer the questions.

Answer

1

Matteo begins the email with a friendly greeting, "Hi Jason," and ends it with a closing statement, "Cheers, Matteo."

2

The first sentence in each paragraph provides information about different aspects of Matteo's family:

  1. Acknowledges Jason's communication.
  2. Describes the composition of his family.
  3. Provides a description of his mother's personality and hobbies.
  4. Talks about his father's occupation and interests.
  5. Introduces his younger sister's interests and their relationship dynamic.
  6. Describes their family activities during the week and weekends.
  7. Concludes the email by offering assistance and good wishes.

  • "Hi Jason," (greeting)
  • "Great to hear from you!"
  • "We get on well"
  • "She can be a bit annoying."
  • "Especially when she wants to play with me, I want to do my stuff on my own!"
  • "I hope this helps"
  • "Cheers"

Matteo has mostly answered Jason's questions about his family. He provides details about each family member, their personalities, interests, and activities they do together. However, it seems he hasn't explicitly mentioned the school project that Jason might have asked about. So, while he has provided information, he may have missed addressing the specific inquiry about the project.
