Question 56-60: Read the letter. Choose the best answers.

Dear Grandma and Grandpa,
Thank you both for the wonderful wedding present. Both Jill and I have always
wanted to go to France and visit many museums. We were so shocked when we first saw
the airplane tickets to France as a wedding present, Paris is wonderful! The only trouble is
trying to decide where to go. I want to go to the museums, but Jill wants to see some of the
beautiful traditional churches. In the end we decided to see the churches in the morning
(when the weather is cool) and the museums in the afternoon (because they are air
conditioned). This allows us to get the most sightseeing done during our two-week stay.
There are many coffee shops, too. Jill likes sitting outside and watching people, but I like
sitting inside where I can enjoy the smell of the coffee. French coffees are so much more
aromatic and stronger than the coffee we are used to back home. Thanks again for the
lovely trip! We sent you a postcard, but I think we will arrive back home before you get it.
It is a picture of the Eiffel Tower.
Love
Fred and Jill.
Câu 56: What did Freddy’s grandparents give him and Jill as a wedding present?
