Question

Read the task in ex. 4. Before writing, plan your answer using these guidelines.

Answer

  1. Lucas wants to plan an unusual gift and organize games for his brother Thomas's birthday party.
  2. It sounds like Lucas is enthusiastic about making Thomas's birthday memorable and enjoyable, which is a thoughtful gesture.
  3. Lucas wants to give Thomas either a rainbow birthday cake or some special gourmet birthday biscuits as a food gift.
  4. I prefer the rainbow birthday cake because it's visually striking and can serve as a centerpiece for the celebration. It adds a fun and colorful element to the party that everyone can enjoy.
  5. Lucas would like to organize games during the party to keep the guests entertained.
  6. For games, I suggest setting up a scavenger hunt, a photo booth with props, and maybe a trivia game related to Thomas's interests. These activities were a hit at my half-sister's birthday party and can be adapted to suit Thomas's preferences.
  7. As for food and drinks, we can bring a variety of snacks like chips, dip, and finger foods, along with refreshments such as soda, juice, and water to keep everyone hydrated.
  8. End the email by expressing excitement about the upcoming party and looking forward to celebrating Thomas's birthday together.
