Matt : I'm not sure about that, to be honest. The weather is so beautiful, and we've been inside
all day. How about we try that new roof-top restaurant that just opened?
Zach : That sounds like a good idea. I hear they have amazing views.
Matt : Me too. Someone told me it can be hard to get a table though.
Zach : Then I suggest we sneak out of work a little bit early so we can get one.
Matt : I don't think that's a good idea. The boss has been so strict lately.
Zach : Okay, fine. But if we can't get a table at the restaurant, we're going to the movies
instead.
Matt : That's fair. Meet you in the lobby at 5:00 pm? We can walk there together.
Zach : Sounds good. I'll see you then.
Dear Sir,
I understand that my payment is three weeks late, but that does not justify your
collections office’s actions. During the past five days I have received three telephone
calls and four letters. In addition, one of your representatives has contacted two of my
relatives who have nothing to do with my finances. By anyone’s definition this is
harassment. I expect you to stop contacting me every day and to stop calling my relatives.
In the meantime, please know that I plan to send you a payment within the next few days.
The money will reach your office in about a week.
Sincerely yours
Andrew Barkle

The Rabbits
Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, found
in several parts of the world. There are eight different genera in the family classified as
rabbits, including the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), cottontail rabbits (genus
Sylvilagus; 13 species), and the Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi, an endangered species
on Amami Oshima, Japan). There are many other species of rabbit, and these, along with
pikas and hares, make up the order Lagomorpha. The male is called a buck and the female is
a doe; a young rabbit is a kitten or kit.
Rabbit habitats include meadows, woods, forests, grasslands, deserts and wetlands.
Rabbits live in groups, and the best known species, the European rabbit, lives in
underground burrows, or rabbits holes. A group of burrows is called warren.
More than half the world’s rabbits population resides in North America. They are also
native to southwestern Europe, Southeast Asia, Sumatra, some islands of Japan, and in parts
of Africa and South America. They are not naturally found in most Eurasia, where a number
of species of hares are present. Rabbits first entered South America relatively recently, as
part of the Great American Interchange. Much of the continent has just one species of
rabbit, the tapeti, while most of South America’s southern cone is without rabbits.

fire safety field extensively.
In the Boy Scout of America I have camped and backpacked in rough

wildlife conservation community service projects. In the community I lead a few
graffiti removal projects that have inspired others in the community. I also have
aided teens in stress management and depression. I will contact you in a week’s
time regarding this letter.
Sincerely,
Jon Hoffman
