Dear Timothy,

Thanks a lot, it was great to get your letter! I’ve learnt a lot about your language practice.

Frankly speaking, I’ve never had any language practice abroad and I don’t have any possibilities of such studies besides school lessons.

I practise English, reading books in the original and I also enjoy listening to some old English groups like the ‘Beatles’. Listening to some other groups is also quite helpful. For example, ABBA songs are easily understood.

I’d like to have a chance of practising English with a native speaker, though not necessarily abroad (it’s cool but too expensive)!

Sorry, I’ve got to feed my dog.

Write soon.

Best wishes,

Angela

Dear Susan,

Thank you for your letter.

I can’t share your opinion of DiCaprio. He is really cool and an excellent actor. As for me, I adore actors and actresses who have ‘school’ and who can show different features of their personalities in various genres of films. Sometimes I even choose a film to watch because of a special actor starring in it.

Some of my friends are of the same opinion as mine, but some have their own likes and dislikes (tastes differ)! They prefer action to good acting.

Sorry, have to do my homework.

Write soon.

Love,

Tonya
