Capital Letters

Task 2 
Dear Mother
I'm going to tell you a little bit about this good friend of mine. Her name is Cynthia Marie Esther Wilson. She comes from a little town called Grand Ledge in Michigan, USA. She is born on a Thursday, the 24th of December. It's quite amazing, because that is on Christmas Eve. She supports the Democrats, which I agree with her in. She loves the films "The Lord of The Rings", "The Help" and "The Notebook".  Just last week we were in Washington DC, where we saw "The Notebook" in the cinema and also got to visit the White House. Cynthia is very fascinated by Buddhism, which I find very interesting. She is an all American girl, but she can also speak Mandarin, Spanish and even French! She has this weird fetish though. To make every new person she meets to call her Ms. Esther. I think it's really funny, but people just smiles and walk slowly away from her. 
All in all, I have a friend who entertains me and who is always kind.

Love from your amazing daughter

Alan Turing

Task 1 Description of Alan Turing

Alan Turing is a very intelligent person. I think his strength is that he kind of lives in his own little world, which gives him the power to think and act in a special and genius way. His weakness is that he cares a little bit too much about his technology and solving impossible puzzles, that he loses the world around him. In my eyes he turns into this machine.
