Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to apply for the position of Junior Accountant, which was advertised in the local newspaper last week. I believe my academic background and my strong interest in finance make me a suitable candidate for this post.

I am currently completing my studies at the Lycée in Brazzaville, where I have obtained excellent results in mathematics and economics. I am hard-working, reliable, and I have good communication skills, which I developed through group projects and presentations at school. I am also available to start working as soon as possible and I am willing to learn quickly.

I would be grateful for the opportunity to discuss my application further at an interview. Please find enclosed my curriculum vitae for your consideration.

Yours faithfully,
Prisca Mabiala

Dear Yannick,

How are you doing? I hope everything's fine with you and your family. I'm writing to tell you about something that happened to me last week.

I wasn't feeling well for a few days — I had stomach aches and I was always tired. So I went to see the doctor, and she told me I wasn't eating properly. Apparently, I eat too much fried food and not enough fruit and vegetables! She advised me to have a balanced diet, drink more water, and get enough sleep every night.

Since then, I've been trying to eat more healthily, and I already feel much better. You should really try it too!

Take care,
Divine

Description corrigée

This picture shows a lively market scene in a Congolese town. In the foreground, several sellers are standing behind their stalls, displaying colourful fruit and vegetables such as bananas, tomatoes and cassava. On the left, a woman is weighing some oranges for a customer, while on the right, two men are carrying heavy baskets on their heads. In the middle of the picture, a group of children are playing happily near the stalls, apparently not disturbed by the noise around them.
