Dear Mother,

How are you?  I hope you are good there. I am fine here and doing good. Today while I pass by the road and I saw a child who met with an accident in front of my eyes and everyone gathered around him and no one was helping him to get up all of them were taking photos and selfie with him and posting it on the social media.  He was struggling to get up then suddenly I went and helped him to get up and I took him to the hospital and He was fine with minimal injuries. But how come a people can do this just staring at an accident victim and none of them were serious. If this keeps on going on we people will lose our humanity. I just want to share this with you mom. Love you mom.

Yours lovingly,
Kalpana/Kiran Shah

Dear Mohan
It was lovely to get your letter and to hear the good news that you are going trekking with your friends. You (ought to/ would/ should) have a break after your exams! You ask me what you (can/ should. will) take. Well, you (might/ can't/ mustn't) fit everything in a backpack so you must be selective. You (will/ can/ must) take at least one sweater because it (ought to/ should/ can) get very cold in the mountains. You (needn't/ could/ should) pack a gas stove
because there (could/ may/ will) be plenty of firewood from dead trees.
I'm sure you will have a wonderful time but I (may/ would/ should) give you a word of warning. Don't get stuck in the Lak:i Pass at night. Once you're there you (won't be able to/ can't be able to/ not to able to) get down and it's very dangerous at night. By the way, you (should/ should have to/ should have) told me earlier that you were going and I (should have/ would have/ will have) given you my walking boots!
Anyway, look after yourself and enjoy your holiday.

With love
Daddy
