4. Comprehensive Practice 4.1 Cloze
In putting into words how much we adore someone, sometimes it is easier to do so in correspondence than face-to-face. One cannot help but sympathize with the lover who, gazing upon the object of his affection face-to-face, becomes overwhelmed and lost for words. Here distance may help. For separation not only makes the heart grow fonder, it also provides the perfect excuse for a(n) exchange of love letters in which the tongue-tied lover can give a more impressive display of his innermost thoughts. Unable to bring himself to speak freely about his feelings, with pen and paper on hand he may nonetheless easily fill pages with fine words. Watered by these, love will hopefully bloom. 4.2 Translation

I. Viewing & Listening
1. 29th Jan., 1945 My dearest one,
I’ve just heard the news that all the Army men who were held POW are to return to their homes. Because of the shipping situation we may not commence to go before the end of February, but could probably count on being in England sometime in March. It may be sooner. It has made me very warm inside. It is terrific, wonderful, shattering.
2. I do not know how long leave I shall get. I could get as little as 14 days and I may get as much as a month. I’m wondering how I shall tell you I’m in England. Probably it’s still quicker to send a telegram than a letter. And I hope to send you one announcing that I am on the same island. I will send another when I’m
actually soon to get on the London-bound train and you can ring Lee Green 0509 when you think I have arrived there. 3. It’s a pity that the winter weather will not be kind to us out of doors. But it will be nice sitting next to you in the pictures no matter what may be on the screen. It will be grand to know we have each other’s support and sympathy. Won’t it be wonderful to be together — really together in the flesh, not just to know that a letter is all we can send. Love you, Chris
III. Writing
Model letter for your reference
My Dearest Pauline,
I was overwhelmed with sadness to hear about the death of Frank in battle. I long for words to say how much I sympathize with you, but none are adequate in moments like these. I will say, though, that my heart goes out to you. I will always remember the deep enjoyment I had in knowing Frank, such a kind, gentle soul. He was an extraordinarily impressive man and a very brave soldier. He filled so many of us with admiration by his willingness to give his life for world peace and freedom. His life will endure as a model for us all, all the more so, for Dee, whom he adored. I am so proud of him. You can depend on my love and support during this sad time.
With my deepest love and sympathy,
Jenny (140 words)
