  Dear Christine,

  Thanks for your letter! I was glad to get your letter.

Well, I think that a language school in St. Petersburg is the best choice. Firstly, it is a wonderful city in which you can easily practice the Russian language. Also, all prices in St. Petersburg are lower than in Moscow. In my opinion, you should visit the Hermitage, drawbridges, Peterhof, the Winter Palace, the Mariinsky Theater and the Summer Garden. As for weather it's unpredictable in St. Petersburg. However, in summer there is very good weather, about 20-25 degrees Celsius.

  I hope my advice will be useful. I finish my letter because I have to go on working.

  Best wishes,

  Дорогая Кристина,

за твоё письмо! Я была рада получить твоё письмо.

Что ж, я думаю, что языковая школа в Санкт-Петербурге - лучший выбор. Во-первых, это прекрасный город, в котором вы можете легко практиковать русский язык. Также все цены в Питере ниже, чем в Москве. На мой взгляд, стоит посетить Эрмитаж, разводные мосты, Петергоф, Зимний дворец, Мариинский театр и Летний сад. Что касается погоды, то она не предсказуема в Питере. Тем не менее, летом очень хорошая погода, около 20-25 градусов по Цельсию.

Я надеюсь, что мой совет будет полезен. Я заканчиваю свое письмо, потому что я должна продолжать работать.

С наилучшими пожеланиями,

  Ваше имя

Future Real Conditional

FORM

[If / When ... simple present ..., ... simple future ...]

[... simple future ... if / when ... simple present ...]

Notice that there is no future in the if- or when-clause.

USE

The future real conditional (also called conditional 1) describes what you think you will do in a specific situation in the future. It is different from other real conditional forms because, unlike the present or the past, you do not know what will happen in the future. Although this form is called "real", you are usually imagining or guessing about the future. It is called "real" because it is still possible that the action might occur in the future. Carefully study the following examples and compare them to the future unreal conditional examples further down the page.

Examples:

If I go to my friend's house for dinner tonight, I will take a bottle of wine or some flowers.
I am still not sure if I will go to his house or not.

1. Business people are involved in the management of companies.

2. My father builds bridges.

3. Every year they spend a couple of months at the seaside .
