VI. Read the passage and choose the letter A, B, C or D to answer these following questions
Dear Shirley,
You won’t believe what Jack and I did last weekend! We went to Cancun! We got there early Friday morning, checked in, and went straight to the beach. We went scuba diving all morning, and we relaxed on the beach and swam all afternoon. On Saturday, we went to Tulum, the Mayan ruins about two hours south of Cancun. On Sunday, we rented a sailboat and went sailing. And then we went parasailing on the beach. It was a lot of fun! As soon as I came down from parasailing, we had to run to the hotel, check out, and get to the airport. We slept all the way home, but what wonderful three days!\n
Love,
Beth
