Suggested answer
Hi George!
Thanks for your email. I was very glad to hear from you.
I’m happy to answer your questions. As for me, I’m a member of our school football club and help out in our local animal shelter. When it comes to the benefits, football keeps me active, and helping animals is just heartwarming. I make great friends and learn teamwork in football, while volunteering gives me a sense of responsibility – totally real-world skills!
Now, I’m super curious about your uncle’s adopted animal. What kind of animal did he adopt? How old is it? What is its name?
That’s all for now. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
Anton
