Just correct any sentences that you think are wrong in the first part.
I like the sentences that you wrote here.
5. They have such a big house. They need rollerblades to GET AROUND IT ALL.
6. Why were you so embarrassed when the exam started? What happened?
-I am such a lucky guy.
-I've seen this film so many times.

My English is (SO) much better than this time last year. (We can use "so here".
You were right to correct the other two.
There are another two mistakes in the exercise. You can find them, can't you?
Enjoy your trip to London! Tell us all about it when you get back.
I think I can´t understand some differences between "such" and "so". I have read something about it and I have tried to do the exercise. Is it right?
Maybe I could ask you in class.
Thanks a lot!
Nuria.
