READING

7Read the letters and complete the chart.

Dear Ben,

So you want to go on a sailing holiday with your family? Turkey is a great place for sailing – you can go on a special boat called a gulet. The Black Sea is a popular place to go and the best time is the summer – from May to September.

Dear Holly,

Skydiving is great fun but it can be dangerous. Because you are only fourteen, I think you are too young for this sport. Try again when you’re older.

You can learn in Britain. The weather is often a problem – go in July or August for the best weather.

Dear Callum,

Canada is a fantastic place to ski, but the flights are very expensive. You can go skiing in many places in Europe – Norway is one of the best for families. You can stay in an ice hotel, too! January and February are good times for skiing.

Name / Activity / Country/Countries / Best time
