III. Read the following passage and answer the question.
Hello Jamie,
It was great to see you last night. I thought that I would send you an e-mail with our weekend plans in case
you wanted to come with us.
Jenna and I are going to visit the Modern Art Museum at 3 P.M. There is going to be a special show for
Dutch artists. They are going to be showing some really rare paintings. The museum has been gathering paintings for a year just for this event. I don’t think we will ever be able to see this special of an art show.
It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
After the art show, we are going out to dinner. My cousin has just opened a new restaurant and we want to
see how good it is. Jenna has not seen you for a long time and said that she misses you.
Let me know if you want to come with us as soon as possible.
Lisa.
