Dear Paul,

Thanks for your letter. I’m really glad you like your new school!

I guess I should start by telling you about sports in Russia. I believe the most popular sport with boys is football because it’s

a very exciting game. Girls enjoy gymnastics as it helps them to keep fit. As for me, I’m crazy about football, too. I wish I could play every day but I don’t have enough time (unfortunately!).

Well, I think joining a drama club is a good idea. One day you may become a famous actor. Who knows? Write back and tell me about your club. How many pupils are there? What plays are you going to put on? Are you given any costumes?

Anyway, I’d better go now as I’ve got loads of homework to do. Keep in touch!

Best wishes,

Slava

Dear Jessica,

Hi! I was so happy to get your letter! It was great to hear your news.

In your letter you asked me about popular teenage clothes in Russia. Well, I guess today’s teenagers have a new tag line, ‘I’ve just got to be me.’ Wearing baggy jeans and T-shirts is still important but teens like to add their own unique pieces of clothing. As for me, I enjoy a popular layered style and I usually wear denim jeans, button up shirts and open cardigans as they’re very comfortable.

Anyway, write back and tell me about your tastes in clothes. What kind of clothes do you prefer? Do you follow any fashion trends? Do you enjoy wearing a school uniform?

Well, I’d better go now as I have to cook dinner. Take care and keep in touch!

Love,

Marina

15/06/08 Dear John,

Hi! How’s it going? Thanks for your letter. I hope you did well at your exam. Was it difficult?

Well, I’m really glad you’re going to visit Russia. There are lots of historical sites and museums in Moscow. You should by all means visit the Kremlin, the State Historical Museum and the Borodino Panorama Museum. Unfortunately, there is no free admission for students; however, the entrance fees aren’t very high. Taking pictures is usually allowed although sometimes you’ll have to pay a small fee.

Anyway, write back and tell me all your travel details. Would you like me to meet you at the airport? How long are you going to stay in Moscow? What other cities are you planning to visit?

I’ve got to go now because Mum’s calling me to dinner. Take care!

All the best,

Paul
