SECTION ONE

READING AND INTERPRETING

To the editor,

Ive read your opinion article about diversity which was entitled mixed

neighbourhood.I think itsa great idea to live in harmony and peace with other

communities.

Imagine the wonderful diversity of living in a neighbourhood with all sorts of

different people.

I think it could be very enriching to live amongst people of different ethnic origins andsocial backgrounds. It would be like having the entire world at your doorstep.

How can you understand others if you dont know them? Living in a multiethnic

neighbourhood is a perfect opportunity to get to know other peoples and cultures.

Sincerely yours,Amy Williams.
