Dear Peter,
Thanks for your letter. Sorry I haven't written for so long because I was busy at school.
In your letter you asked me about living in Russia. First of all I would like to tell you about families in my country. Usually family consists of parents and children, who live together and get on well. But the number of other relatives can be rather big. Secondly, you asked about the school. Well, we go to school every day except Sunday (and Saturday - если не учитесь по субботам). Usually we have 6-7(уж не знаю сколько у вас уроков) lessons, we study different subjects: Maths, Physics, Russian and others. Finally, I have many duties. I need to water flowers, clean the flat, cook at home and listen to teachers, do everything they say to do at school.
Unfortunately, I must go now to help my Mom. Keep in touch.
Best wishes,
Name.
