Dear Mary,
Thank you for your letter. I'm so glad that you have such healthy habits. To keep fit is very important for me as
well. Though I don’t go to the gym I do my exercises pretty regularly. It’s not
always easy to actually start to do them first thing in the morning but I usually manage it. I think that
moderation in all makes people strong and sound. As for a healthy lifestyle, it seems to be the best option for everyone.
I'm sure you will have a lot of fun at the
seaside. Is this a faraway place? Have you been there before? Are you going there
alone?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Best wishes,
Tatiana

Dear Mary,
I’m glad to hear from you. It’s perfectly that you decide to follow the healthy lifestyle because it makes you stronger. Unfortunately I don’t have enough time to go to the fitness club, but I prefer to do sports at home by myself. I think sport, avoiding harmful habits and proper nutrition can make people healthier. So I’m sure that healthy lifestyle is useful and people should think about it.
I hope your trip will be exiting. Which country are you going to visit? Have you ever seen the sea before? Is the seaside the only place you’ll go this summer?
Waiting for your reply.
Kind regards,
Tatiana
Well done, Tatiana! You've got all necessary points in the letter e.g answers, questions and you know rules of letter writing. But I recommend you to change the second sentence a little to make it perfect. Thanks.

ReplyDeleteDear Dream,
I came from your advertisement at web-site. I think that this package-tour to Lapland is exactly for me because I can't live without adventures. I was very impressed by description of tour program. There are a lot of places which I dreamed to visit! For me Lapland is a real fairytale, especially in winter. I have already been at the north of Europe because I’m really interested in history and culture of this region. This trip will be the great chance to become closer to it. Besides, my friends and I like skiing so much and ability to visit the oldest ski-resort is very important for us. We all are ready for the new amazing impressions.
Please reply me if you choose me.
Best wishes,
Tatiana.
Dear Tanya,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your letter. It’s great. I hope you will get enough opportunity to travel.
Let’s keep in touch.
All the best,

ReplyDeleteDear Mike,
Thank you for the letter. I am glad to receive a letter from you. In your letter you ask me about foreign languages. I am writing about it.
Many kids learn French language, but we study only English, because I have to know this language for my work in the future. For develop language, I read many English books, watch films and videos. Besides, I try to speak in English with my friend every day.
Your brother starts school this year, Doesn’t he? How long is your brother Eddy? Does Eddy want to learn French or Russian languages?
I’m looking forward to your letter. Write me soon. Sorry, I must go now
Best wishes,
Aisha

Many people claim that childhood is harmless time for us, because our parents take responsibility for children and thus we become light –hearted. But others think that childhood is boring and unsafe period in our life. In any time, people are in danger. I would like to express my point of view on this subject.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, when a person is child, his parents and relatives always protect him and help in any difficult situations. But when a man is growing he must responsible for his actions and life. That is why I agree that childhood is the safest time for people.
However, some people think in despite funny and lucky childhood, a person can be in any difficult situations, which are unexpected. Nevertheless, I think childhood has more advantages. When we are little, our parents are ready to answer for our deeds and us.
There are different points of view on this problem. A man should value his childhood and everything in this smart time. I want to recommend everyone to remember significance of the childhood and to be thankful for it to parents.
Dear Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your letter. It was great to hear from you. I’d like to answer your question.
Well, I like reading a book about the history of any country and a book which concerns all aspects of live. I think the most interesting and exciting period in Russian history is the 19th century when the Russian fought for their country in World War II. This war can show everyone how need love our country. If there were a time machine, I would like to visit Armenia the 18th century because it is the most interesting time.
It is so good that you got a new camera for your birthday. Who has presented it to you? Do you like it or want other? Can you take a beautiful picture? Please tell me more about it.
Write soon.
Best wishes,

Dear Mary,
Thank you for your letter. Sorry for not writing you earlier.
I'm glad you have such a healthy lifestyle. Answering your first question, I try to care more about my health and eat food which contains vitamins I need. Also I do different excercises every morning to keep fit, and I'm trying to change my sleep pattern, so I wake up at 6 a.m. and go to bed early. I think such simple habits can make people strong and healthy without a problem. In my opinion, healthy lifestyle is a thing that every person should strive for.
I hope you'll enjoy your holiday. Where exactly is the seaside? Will your family be with you? Have you ever been there before?
Oh, sorry, I have to go. My lunch is ready.
Write back soon.
Best wishes,
Christine.
