Ответ:

Про друга

Dear Chris,

How are the things going on? Did something new happen in your life? Having received your letter, I wanted to answer it immediately but I was working a lot during the last two weeks. So I was pressed for time and did not manage to carry out my intentions.

In my country spring has already set. It is quite warm and really sunny all days long. Being at work I always imagine myself strolling down some parks. I wish you could join me! It would be funny! Some days ago my friend advised me to read a very interesting book. I did it and I would like you to know this author. Are you ready to read good literature?

Tell me more about your work and free time. Are you satisfied with all this? What are your plans for this summer? Maybe we will be able to meet one day?

Про школу.

My school is the best. My school is a four-storeyed building. Pupils of primary school study on the ground floor. There is a big gym in our school. Our physical training lessons and different sport competitions are held there. We celebrate holidays in assembly hall.

Teachers who work in our school are very good. Each of them teaches well and their lessons are quite interesting. Our form-mistress’ name is Irina. She is a teacher of Russian and literature. Thank to her our class is united and exemplary. I and all my classmates often go to the cinema, theatre, museums and exhibitions.

During summer holidays I miss my school. I like my school very much.

Answer 2

Subject: Catching Up and School Update

Hey Chris,

I hope this email finds you well! It was so great to receive your email and catch up on everything going on with you. Reading your message put a big smile on my face and made me realize how much I miss our conversations.

As for school, things have been quite busy on my end. The workload has definitely picked up, and I'm finding myself diving into various subjects and projects. But you know me, I love a good challenge, so I'm embracing the learning process.

Speaking of school, let me give you a quick tour of my classroom. It's spacious and well-lit, with large windows that let in plenty of natural light. The walls are adorned with colorful posters that our teachers put up to make the atmosphere vibrant and engaging. We've got rows of sturdy wooden desks that sometimes feel like they're conspiring to make my handwriting look messier than it actually is!

Now, onto a piece of advice about making friends. Remember how we used to strike up conversations over the simplest things? Well, that's the key – just be open and approachable. In my experience, finding common interests or sharing a friendly smile can go a long way in making new friends. Don't be afraid to join group activities or start up conversations with classmates you haven't spoken to before. Sometimes, all it takes is that initial "hello."

Keep being your awesome self, Chris! I'm sure you'll find great friends who appreciate your humor and kindness. Looking forward to hearing more about what's happening on your side of the world.

Take care and talk to you soon!

Warm regards,

[Your Name]
