<span class='text_page_counter'>(4)</span> I’m Nguyen Viet Hung. I’m now 25 years old, and I’ll tell you a story about my pen pal. Last year I had a most enjoyable experience when I met somebody I had been writing for over years. When I was fifteen, my teacher of English asked if anyone wanted to have an English pen pal. I had known some English and as I was finding it rather difficult. I thought this might help me. A few weeks later, the teacher gave me the address of a boy who lived in Leeds. We began to write to each other straight away and usually exchanged letters about twice a month. We often wrote that we would like to meet but, unfortunately, this was never possible. However, last year I was sent on a two-week course in London by my firm. There was a great deal of work to do and I did not have much time free, but on the second weekend my friend came to see me. I wondered if we really liked each other when we met. Fortunately, there was absolutely nothing to worry about; We had been writing for so long that it was like meeting an old friend. We had a meal together and spent the whole day talking about our shared interests. I hope we will be able to meet again soon. 1. Mr. Hung started to have a pen pal when ______.
