2b Your parents asked your opinion as to where the family should

spend their holidays. Which place would you choose?

Give reasons for your answer.

I would choose Melaka because it is not far from Kuala Lumpur.

The hotel is also not expensive. The family can stay in the double room.

It would only costy father RM 100 per night. Furthermore, there is also a

10% discoun on meals. So my father can saves more money.

The hotel also gives free swimming lessons. So we can all learn to swim.

in the morning or evening, we can go island hopping. The boat trips are
