In your letter you ask me about my last holidays. My parents and I went to St.Petersburg together by plane. We visited many historic places, museums and art galleries. I was deeply impressed by St. Isaac’s Cathedral! It used to be the main church of Russia. St. Petersburg is famous for its White Nights so, we walked a lot in the nights. It was unforgettable!

Our team is famous in my school. We always participate in competitions and we often win. As for my school, I try to study well and I always do my homework.

Your classmate Victor wrote the letter to his pen friend Paul.

As for me, we don’t argue about such things with my friends. They like cinema a lot and we don’t have difficulties related to films and the place where to watch them. What’s more, we often go to the cinema and we never miss a chance to watch a new blockbuster. As a rule, we watch films in the cinema twice or three times a month. So I can say that we prefer cinema to videos. D I’d better go now and help my mother. Keep in touch! E With love, F Belovo, Russia G Thanks so much for your letter. It was interesting to read about your news. H Victor

You are making your reply to your friend on FaceBook. He is a very bright student at school and he also reads a lot So, you want to make a good expression on him. Join the ideas using the words and phrases in the brackets:

We are fond of different kinds of books and we usually discuss characters, events, problems of the books we have read (what’s more). * Soon we’ll celebrate our aunt’s birthday and we’ve already begun to prepare for it (also). * My elder brother is very intelligent and reliable but he tends to be bossy (however). * She is very kind and attractive but at the same time she is strict (though). * My school has wonderful traditions and pupils keep them carefully (and also). * I must do my homework every day and I go to music school (what’s more).

Now imagine you have received a letter from your English-speaking friend Jane. Yesterday we took part in the quiz show which was organized in our school. It was so exciting! A lot of pupils of our school took part in it but only 3 contestants participated in the last round. Guess what? My best friend won. ….Have you ever taken part in such activities? Do you find it difficult? What is your favourite quiz show on TV? Write her a letter and answer her 3 questions.

My teachers advise me to: * correct the use of articles * correct the forms of the verbs * correct the word order count the words (if you are preparing for the state exams, you must write words * correct the letter according to the rules of letter writing
