Spettabile DirezioneRistorante Quattro Stelle
Recentemente abbiamo celebrato l’anniversario dei miei nonni al vostroristorante. L’abbiamo scelto perché c’è stato consigliato da alcuni nostriamici. Ho deciso di scrivervi perché, malgrado siamo rimasti contenti, cisono delle cose che vorremmo farvi sapere.
Prima di tutto, non abbiamo potuto godere la nostra buona cena perchél’ambiente era troppo freddo a causa dell’aria condizionata. Abbiamo parlatocon un cameriere che ci ha detto che l’aria condizionata non si poteva
regolare in altro modo. Inoltre, il servizio era un po’ lento.
Comunque, il nostro cameriere è stato molto gentile ad aiutarci a scegliere ivini adatti per i piatti scelti. Per lo più, devo dire che la veduta della baia dalnostro tavolo era incantevole.
Infine, anche il costo della cena è stato ragionevole, per cui non cidispiacerebbe ritornare con la famiglia.

Ciao Kristy, mi trovo all’ultima tappa della gita scolastica, la bella Taormina. Certo che la
Sicilia è una regione piena di antichità e di bei paesaggi.Mi dispiace che non ho potuto scriverti prima. Ti giuro che non ho avuto il tempo perchéogni giorno è stato pieno zeppo di attività. E per dire la verità la sera non avevo né la vogliané l’energia di scrivere a nessuno. Poi, trovare un computer negli alberghi di due stelle èquasi impossibile. Però stasera ho trovato un caffè internet proprio di fronte all’albergo.
Quanti bei posti abbiamo visto in tre settimane! Ogni paese in Italia ha il suo carattereunico. Milano è il centro della moda e lì c’era un mondo di scelta, sia di abiti che diaccessori. E poi Riva del Garda, che sorpresa inaspettata questo paese. È una vera cartolina!
Kristy, devi per forza far parte a questa gita l’anno prossimo. Ti divertirai assai. Però ti
consiglierei di non invitare Adriana a venire con te. Anche se lei è la tua cara amica e sieteinseparabili, il fatto è che lei si lamenta sempre quando deve andare in giro a piedi e inquesta gita c’è tanto da camminare.
In più, bisogna alzarsi presto ogni mattina con le valigie già fatte per la colazione, per poisubito prendere il pullman per la prossima sosta. Queste sono cose che darebbero noia adAdriana. Non so se tu potresti sopportare la sua incessante lamentela. Pensaci bene primadi invitarla.
A prestoElisa

Lorenzo: Ciao Viviana, che mi dici?_______________________________________________________
Viviana: Ciao Lorenzo. Beh, una novità c’è. Devo traslocare in un’altracittà._______________________________________________________
Lorenzo: Davvero? Come mai?_______________________________________________________
Viviana: Mio padre è stato trasferito a Firenze. I miei sono entusiasmatidi vivere in una città culturalmente ricca, e tocca andareanche a me. Però, io non ho nessuna voglia d’andarci._______________________________________________________
Lorenzo: Ma dai non essere così negativa._______________________________________________________Viviana: Ma io ho l’ansia dello sconosciuto. Il pensiero di essere in un
ambiente diverso mi mette paura._______________________________________________________
Lorenzo: Guarda che farai nuove amicizie._______________________________________________________
Viviana: Sì, i miei genitori non vedono l’ora di conoscere personenuove ed interessanti. Ma io sono un tipo troppo timido. Il miopaesino è il mio nido, dove mi sento sicura e anche padronadel mio destino._______________________________________________________
Lorenzo: Comunque, ho sentito dire che a Firenze c’è tanto da vedere,per esempio i siti, i musei e i negozi._______________________________________________________
Viviana: Sì, tu lo sai che io sono appassionata dell’arte e sareicontenta di visitare i musei._______________________________________________________
Lorenzo: Vedrai che pian piano ti abituerai ad apprezzare le bellezzedel tuo nuovo paese._______________________________________________________
Viviana: Forse hai ragione e meno male che si tratta di Firenze e nondi Milano. Tu lo sai quanto mi piace la storia, e l’idea di poterepasseggiare per una città tanto storica mi attira un pochino.Per il resto, vivere in una città non m’interessa. Io mi
accontento delle cose semplici della vita... l’odore del panefresco nel panificio la mattina._______________________________________________________
Lorenzo: E dove vivrete? In centro?_______________________________________________________
Viviana: Sì, i miei sono contenti che hanno trovato un appartamentospazioso proprio in centro. Però, io sentirò la mancanza dellanostra casetta. Dovrò lasciare indietro tanti bei ricordi._______________________________________________________
Lorenzo: Va bene, ma bisogna andare avanti nella vita. È proprio cosìche si creano dei nuovi ricordi.

Alcuni giovani inventori italiani parlano del loro successo...
Vi viene la voglia d’inventare qualcosa? Devo dirvi che io ci sono riuscita…però solo dopo tanto tempo e tante prove. Quindi se non avete tanta pazienzanon vale la pena neanche cominciare. Poi bisogna avere un’idea e la passione direalizzarla. In più, per riuscire ad inventare qualcosa bisogna sperimentare e nonaver paura di sbagliare. Inoltre, bisogna essere bravi a comunicare la vostra ideaalle persone che contano. Se non avete una grande chiacchiera, non provatecinemmeno.
Linda Cervello
Ho sempre voluto inventare qualcosa utile per gli altri. Non mi è mai interessatofare soldi con questa mia invenzione. Per me, l’ispirazione di inventare qualcosaera il desiderio di rendere il lavoro in cucina più facile per tutti. Sono rimastosorpreso dal successo finanziario che è venuto in seguito.
Comunque, ho deciso di donare ottanta percento dei miei profitti ai poveri. Èstata l’idea di Federica, la mia ragazza. È proprio per il suo carattere generosoche amo Federica. Abbiamo deciso di sposarci e di vivere una vita semplice enormale insieme.
Silvio Gentile
Per me la motivazione è sempre stata quella di fare tanti soldi ad un’età giovane.
Con questa mia piccola invenzione spero di poter ritirarmi dagli affari presto egodermi la vita da riccone. Mi comprerò un aereo supersonico e l’ultima Ferrarisportiva.
Addio alla mia ragazza … ormai mi sono stancato di lei. E poi, non ho nessunavoglia di essere legato solo ad una donna.
Inoltre, voglio aver contatti con i più famosi miliardari del mondo. Chissà dovefinirò!
