Correct the mistakes in the letter:

1 My name is Louise Barnett. I’m a 15 years old, and I live in San Diego, in Southern
2 California, near the Mexican border. My father is a mechanic and the mother is a secretary.
3 I have an oldest sister, who is 19. Her name is Adriana and she works in a store. My
4 younger brother is 14, and we both go to Putney High School with me.

5 I like school, but there has been a problem lately. There is this a boy who keeps looking at
6 me, but he hasn’t never talked to me. He looks nice, but why doesn’t he say a word? He
7 is makes me nervous.

8 We live in a house with a small garten. I often go swimming with my friends. The beach__
9 is quite closed. We also go shopping together too. Sometimes my father and I drive into
10 Mexico. We live only half hour away from the border. In Mexico, everything is very
11 cheap__, but I never go there alone or with my friends, because it can be quite danger.

12 It’s very hot in San Diego in summer, and even in winter it’s not cold. I like to live here,
13 but I would also like to hear from young people in an other countries.

14 Please write me back.
15 Your,
Louise.
