Dear teacher,
Please correct and suggest the better ones!

1)The 1st May in this year is/ fall on Saturday. Do you have Monday into off compensation?
2)We are going to have a long weekend from this Friday to next Monday.
3)Are you going to come back home/ go away on this long holiday?
4)Today’s newspaper inserted a new-letter that there were a lot of people who had to queue up for getting a ticket in the Western Coach Station right from 3-4 a.m. The price of the ticket of the coachs driving to West in this long weekend has increased by 300% compared with usual.
5)It’s been a long time, we have a long weekend like that. The people make use of this opportunity to go away. It must be a high season now in the touring areas. All of the hotels and boarding-houses may have been full. There must have been a lot of people not find anywhere to stay.
6)Is Chirstmax a public holiday in your country?
7)Do all schools, offices and companies close on Chirstmax period?
8)Have you bought any souvenir?
9)Who(m) are you going to give this nice souvenir to?
10)Maybe all of them went away on the long weekend period. I have phoned several times, but nobody took the phone.
11)Is that the last letter he sent to you?
12)If you don’t mind, I can not answer your question. I am sorry. It’s very personal problem.
What company are those who is standing near the door personnels?
13)Doctor, I have a bad cough and a headache. There are a lot of sputum in my throat. It’s very uncomfortable. I took some cough medicines, but they have helped nothing.

Thanks a lot
