I’ve lived in the USA my whole life but I’d really love to travel to other countries…

Dear Bill,

Thank you for your letter. It’s great that you have already chosen your future job!

Talking about me — I’m not that sure as you are. I also like foreign languages, different cultures and I enjoy travelling, but I don’t think that translation or being a professor is something for me. I’d like to choose a job which would give me a possibility of travelling, meeting new people, communicate with them on a foreign language, because that’s what I’m interested in and what, I guess I could do successfully.

Anyway, you’ve mentioned travelling. Have you already decided when you are going to have your trip? What countries would you like to visit? Do you want to take your parents with you?

I’ve got to go as my friend is asking me for help.

Write back soon.

Best wishes,

Kate

 

you have received a letter from your English-speaking pen friend Tom who writes:

 

…In Great Britain young people want to become independent from their parents as soon as possible. Could you tell me what you and your friends think about not relying on your parents? Are you ready to leave your family immediately after you finish school? Is it easy to rent a house or an apartment for students in Russia?

As for the latest news, I have just returned from a trip to Scotland …

 

Write a letter to Tom. In your letter answer his questions, ask 3 questions about his trip to Scotland. Write 100−140 words. Remember the rules of letter writing.

Dear Tom,

Thank you for your letter, it gave me a lot of new information about young people, living in Great Britain.

In my opinion leaving family and parents house as soon as possible it’s a good idea. Everyone wants it. But, unfortunately, our government in Russia does not give students the sufficient amount of money to “survive”. The scholarships are low, the rent prices are high. To be independent in financial way means working or working and studying at the same time, which meant not having a happy student’s live. Talking about me, I’m not ready yet to take all this responsibilities and leave home.

By the way, about your trip to Scotland. What was the most amazing place that you visitied? Did you travel alone? How long have you been there?

I’ve got to go as my friend is asking me for help.

Write back soon.

Best wishes,

Molly

Family relationships is one of the most popular topic for discussion nowdays. There are people who consider that it is essential to live in a big family. However, others argue saying that there are no benefits in having a big family.

There are two good reasons why I think that it is important both for children and adults to live in a huge family. Firstly, if you live with your relatives they can give you good advice in some situations. It can be attractive for you because if you doubt a lot they help you to make a right decision. Secondly, all members of your family help you in a difficult situations. They can even support you with money.

Nevertheless, there are people who believe that it is really difficult to live in a big family. There are hustle and bustle everywhere and you also haven’t got enough spare place for yourself and freedom at all.

I disagree with this opinion because it is fun to live in a big family. Despite all members can irritate each other you all are sill reliable and true friends.

To sum up, although there are people who think that it is really difficult to live in a big family , I strongly believe that there are no things better than supporting and helps that big family can gifts you

Almost all people could be devides in two parts: first ones are modernes who think that a big family shoul live separately and the others are toward traditions and think that a all members of a big family should live all together.

I’m compelitelly against the secondones, because trough my own experience i can tell that living all together with a big group of relatieves can turned out a complete desaster. The bathroom is always occupied, there is no place you can hide from noisy chat which is all around the appartement. And in general i think that in general the relationships are better when you and your parents are far away from each other.

Some people would say that living in a big family is a good thing because there are always closest people with you, who can feed you and take care of you. And of course those people have their point, but from the other side livivng together make closest people a part of eachothers routine and i don’t think that it’s a good thing. And also living together can be a serious border on young people’s way to independence.

As a conclusion i can say, that all people are different and all families are different as well. But if somebody would ask me what is better to live separately or in a big family all together, i would choose first.

 

Some people think that learning foreign languages is the waste of time and money. Learning foreign languages is one of the most popular topic for discussion nowdays. There are people who consider that there are no benefits when you learn foreign languages. However, others argue saying that learning foreign languages have a lot of advantages.

There are two good reasons why I think that everyone should try to learn new languages. Firstly, if you learn a foreign language you have an opportunity to live and work in country you like. For example, with the certain certificate you can get job in the big international company abroad. It helps you to realize your dreams. Secondly, if you know a foreign language well, you can find friends all over the world. You can learn more about culture of these people that helps you to broaden your mind.

Nevertheless, there are people who believe that if you don’t know for what aim you learn foreign language, you need to stop do it. It is a waste of time because you cant use these knowledges in the future.

I disagree with this opinion because when we learn different languages we keep our health. According to the scientist your brain works better when you learn foreign words.

To sum up, although there are people who consider that learning foreign languages is a waste of time and money, I strongly believe that there are a range of advantages .You can broaden your mind, make a new friends make health better

По­яс­не­ние.

I’ve chosen photo number 3. I would like to tell you more about this picture. In my family we have a tradition to spend winter holidays abroad. That is why we’d decided to rent a house in a foreign country and spend two unforgettable weeks together. Such trips make me forget about daily routine which eventually becomes highly irritating. I took the picture when we had just come to the village where the rented house was situated. It was the first day of our trip. In the photo you can see my little sister sitting on my father’s knee. Dad is giving her a present which he bought a couple of weeks before. In the background there is a Christmas tree. I keep the photo in my album because it reminds me of my darling family. Also the shot is very good. I decided to show the picture to you because you wanted to see some shots from my holiday. Also I just wanted to share my feelings. I hope you liked my picture.

I’ve chosen photo number 1. I would like to tell you more about this picture. I like spending time with my family, especially on holidays. We usually go to the local park which you can see in the photo. We went there in the middle of winter. In the foreground of the photo dad, two lovely sisters and mom are holding hands together. They are all smiling because dad as always tells some jokes. On the right our dog named Richard is running toward me. In the background you can see a lot of trees covered with snow. I keep the photo in my album because I made a really nice shot which I enjoy watching. Also family seems to be very happy there. I decided to show the picture to you because you was wondering how I spent winter holidays. Also I wanted to show you my family. I hope you liked my picture.

СРАВНЕНИЕ

n the photo number one, we can see a man walking with his little son. This picture is very nice. The second one is nice as well. The second pair is a son and his father too, but son is already grown. They are looking in the camera and smiling. They look like they are best friends.

Both of the pictures show us pairs of son-father. The difference is in their age. Also, the first shot was taken outside, while the second one indoors.

As for me, I prefer the second picture. It reminds me that when I grow up I’ll be caring about my parents like they used to carry about me when I was a kid. Our relation has already changed since I was little, now we are more like friends and it is great. But in general, I think that parents are always parents and we are always just kids for them. No matter how old we are. This might be the main idea of those two photos.
