What kind of answer are you expecting asking a question like this?
I think the theme of "Young Goodman Brown" is (D) The forest is a place where dark deeds take place.
This is because the author likens the forest to the unseen and naturally Goodman Brown expresses his distrust and fear as he cautiously enters it. The forest reflects the views of the 17th century Puritans who initially feared the forest but then also wanted to dominate it once they had overcome their fears. Goodman Brown also sees the Devil himself in the forest.
Answer:
It comes across to me that you come from a “hierarchy” culture where one would formally address an elder with respect. Here it is your uncle, whom I assume is an older gentleman, probably your parents’ older relative, living in a rural area with limited or no modern means of communication near by where he lives. Writing would be the next best thing. I would be happy to get a letter in the mail from my near and dear one who lives in another country.
I would start by saying,
Respected Uncle or Dearest Uncle….,
I hope you are doing well.
It has been a long time since we have seen each other. I remember my childhood when mummy and papa would bring us sometimes on our holidays to spend time with you. It was one of my best holdisays, and I want to visit again with mummy and my family so they too can have an experience of rural sunny life in ……..
I have not been out of the country (name your country) for some time now as I was tied down with some personal work at home and also my job kept me busy.
Now that I am able to free up some time, I thought about coming to visit you for a few weeks. First, mum was wanting to spend some quality time with you before she gets older and would not be able to travel later on alone; and second, since it is winter out here, this would be an opportune time to enjoy your sunny weather and be with you.
Uncle, I am mailing this letter to you today and we are all eagerly waiting to hear back from you soon, so we can make necessary travel arrangements.
Your nephew,
