Dear Sasha,Thank you for your letter! Sorry for haven’t written to you for so long but I was busy all this time.Well, I am very glad that you have passed all the exams! Congratulations! (I am very happy for you!) I guess, you should relax your body and mind after exams. And the best way to do it is to go for a walk! You know, my favourite sports are baseball and swimming, but your mum gave you a good piece of advice! Basketball is a good choice for you! As well, all teens in Russia prefer hockey and football. But everybody can choose something else… Wow! Your brother has just come from Australia! That must be great! So, how was his trip? Was it successful? Did he enjoy the weather there? Sorry, I must finish now, because I have to revise for my tomorrow exam. Hope to hear from you soon.Best wishes,Sergey либо Dear Vlad,In your last letter you asked me to tell you about my pets. OK, I can talk for hours on this topic. I have a dog; his name is La boule. That’s a French word which means a ball. He is a pug and he is very funny. I also have a hamster. His name is Albert. Not a usual name for a hamster, you say, but he is very curious and smart enough. I would also like to have a cat, but perhaps not now.I’m fine, no changes since the last time. I’m passing my exams next week. After that, I’m looking forward to going abroad. I like traveling a lot. I’ve visited just a few European countries but I fell in love with the Old world. My dream is to go to Paris. This is the city of love, croissants and haut-couture. I think every person should see it and not necessarily die after it! You told me that you had been to many countries. Tell me about your greatest trip! Have you been to Paris, did you like it? What are you going to do this summer? Where would you like to go? I’m so happy that your sister married! Wish her and her husband a very good luck! Hope the wedding was as gorgeous as the bride was! Could you send me some photos? Sorry, I have to go, my parents are leaving on holidays, I need to see them off.Waiting for your letter,Yours truly,Alex
