Motion pictures
Motion pictures - also called movies or films - belong to the most popular forms of
today. Millions of people all over the world go to cinemas to enjoy an entertaining story
and to see their favorite movie stars. The film industry is also a big business. Movies cost a
money and the people who make them hope to make a lot of profit and achieve worldwide fame.
A film made for entertainment involves many people, sometimes hundreds of them. The
producer is the overall manager of a film. If a producer wants to make a successful movie he has
to hire a good director. A famous director can get good actors and actresses to work with him. He is
the most important person on the set and in charge of everything. He tells the actors what to do
and decides how the scenes are filmed. A successful movie often depends on how good the actors are.
They are the only people the audience gets into contact with. They must not only learn the words that
characters speak in the screenplay but must also understand how to move and speak in a natural way.
When a film is completed and ready to be shown a company is hired to promote the film and
bring it to the attention of the people. Ads are put in magazines
and newspapers, commercials are run on TV. Celebrities talk about this film on the chat shows. The
company hopes that it can bring as many viewers as possible into the cinemas.

Well
Sunday is my favorite day because I don't have classes.
I don't have any homework! I usually get up early,
but I stay in bed for about an hour! I take it
my laptop and Check my email. I sometimes
send text messages to my friends in bed or chat with them online.
I'm going to eat
when I get hungry and want Breakfast!
After Breakfast I go to a meeting
to meet my friends. We
we usually ride our bikes to the Park. We drive around and we have a lot of them
fun! Sometimes we play football or other games. Often we
forget lunch!
And also
early evening. We have a big dinner,
and then I watch TV with my family. I go to bed around 10 o'clock
but I read in bed for half an hour before I went to bed.
I'm turning it off
my light and go to bed.
Hello, (friend's name)! In my last letter, I wrote to you about how I spent my summer. Summer is over, school days have begun. My first day at school was spent at home, since no one goes to school now, everyone studies remotely. All lessons were held in the app for learning. We were given tasks and we did them. There weren't many lessons, because we were just starting to learn. In all the lessons, we repeated the topics from last year. That's how my first day of school went. I'm sorry, but I have to stop writing because school has started and I have to get ready for class. It was your pen friend. Bye!
