Nowadays everybody knows that people are very busy and don’t have much time to spare. Sometimes it’s only the weekend and I think that every day-off needs some special planning. The English say: "Who knows how to work, knows how to rest". I think it’s true. In my view rest is as important as work. So I try to treasure every hour and think of the ways of having a good time in the best way possible for me. I prefer to spend my free time with the people whose company I always enjoy. I also like to spend my spare time alone, when I’m tired and haven’t got any desire to talk to anybody, very often I want to get away from noisy streets and go to the countryside and change the scenery. On the other hand I may go to different entertainment centers such as disco clubs, art centers including cinema, theatre, concerts halls, etc. There are people who want to broaden and enrich their knowledge during their free time. I’m among them; I go to the library or reading-hall where I can find a lot of books written by my favourite writers and poets. I must add that I never have enough time to enjoy reading and more often read a book or a magazine late in the evening. Or I can go to the museums and picture galleries where I can see the works of well-known painters and sculptors of all times. I don’t forget the computer – my greatest helper in searching for knowledge. If you want to be strong and healthy, go in for sports. There are many sports clubs, swimming-pools, gymnasiums and sport grounds for everybody who loves sports. Sport will make you not only healthier and stronger, but kinder, more sociable, cheerful and even wiser. Sport will give you its strength and energy and you’ll become a greater admirer of life with all its problems and wonders. (As for me I ...) Moreover, there are a lot of people, who prefer less energetic activities, such as chess, cards, crosswords. And don’t forget about hobbies. You should have at least one, it’ll help you to relax, dream and enjoy lifer. There are so many hobbies to choose: painting, computer programming, photography, fishing, gardening, cooking, walking, learning languages, collecting something and what not. It’s a pleasure to see lots of things made with your own hands, to look through a large collection of old and rare coins, books or stamps, to present your friends with the pictures and drawings created by yourself, to amuse everyone with your green winter garden at home. So, look around more carefully and you’ll find your own and the only one (or even more). Hobbies give people moments of pride and excitement but take a lot of time, energy and even money. Tastes differ and if you have chosen a hobby according to your character and taste you are lucky. (So my hobby is ...) Travelling is also a good way to spend my spare time. Visiting new places, seeing sights and meeting new people is a very exciting and useful relaxation. I can go hiking. In summer I like to be outdoors from morning till night, sunbathing, walking barefoot on the grass. My family or my friends are the very people to go with to the riverbank, to the forest or to the seashore. It's really wonderful to put up a tent, make a fire and spend time in a picturesque place. People are dreamers, our dreams are different but each person chooses his own way of spending free time, either passive or active. In any case leisure should be refreshment and a source of inspiration.

Dear Jennifer.

Thank you for writing to me. I waited a long time for your letter. Just a week ago, I returned from a trip to Russia. It was a very exciting trip. I saw a lot of things and learned about this country. Did you know that Russians are not really afraid of the cold? This place is very cold in winter, but so beautiful. I hope that someday we will visit Russia together again and you can see the snow. First we arrived in Petersburg. You can’t imagine how beautiful the golden cathedrals are. I think it is in this city that all Russian history lives. This city really made me special impressions. Then we drove on and visited Volgograd, Krasnodar, Pavlograd ... Each of them had a large cathedral with its own history. All the time I wanted to visit Red Square, and now, finally, we arrive in Moscow. The capital itself is different from other cities, it seemed to me more lively, more modern, but even there were churches. Right on the square you can see the huge St. Basil's Cathedral and the so-called Moscow Kremlin. I visited the Bolshoi Theater, and even visited the famous Tretyakov Gallery. In one letter, I will not be able to express the emotions that I felt during the trip. People in this country are so kind and sympathetic that I want to go back right now. By the way, I managed to make many friends there. I just can't believe my little dream has come true. It was one of the most wonderful trips of my life.

Really looking forward to your reply, Jennifer. I can’t wait to see you.

Объяснение: Дорогая Джениффер тебе за то, что написала мне. Я долго дожидалась твоего письма. Буквально неделю назад я вернулась из поездки по России. Это была очень захватывающая поездка. Я много чего видела и узнала об этой стране. Ты знала, что русские на самом деле не боятся холода? В этом месте очень холодно зимой, но так красиво. Надеюсь, когда - нибудь мы вместе посетим Россию ещё раз, и ты сможешь увидеть снег. Сначала мы прибыли в Петербург. Ты не представляешь, какие прекрасные там золотые соборы. Думаю, именно в этом городе живёт вся русская история. Этот город действительно вызвал у меня особые впечатления. Затем мы поехали дальше и побывали в Волгограде, Краснодаре, Павлограде... В каждом из них был большой собор со своей историей. Всё время поездки я мечтала побывать на Красной Площади, и вот, наконец, мы прибываем в Москву. Сама столица отличается от остальных городов, она показалась мне более оживлённой, более современной, но даже там не обошлось без храмов. Прямо на площади можно заметить огромный храм Василия Блаженного и так называемый Московский Кремль. Я побывала в Большом театре, и даже посетила знаменитую Третьяковскую галерею. В одном письме я не смогу выразить те эмоции, которые ощутила во время поездки. Люди в этой стране такие добрые и отзывчивые, что хочется прямо сейчас вернуться обратно. Кстати, мне удалось завести там немало друзей. Я не могу поверить, что моя маленькая мечта сбылась. Это была одна из самых чудесных поездок в моей жизни.  

Очень жду твоего ответа, Дженнифер. Я жду не дождусь нашей встречи.
