Dear John,

Thanks a lot for your letter. I was glad to get it. I’m sorry I didn’t answer earlier but I was really busy with my school.

In your letter you asked me some questions. Well, usually when my parents don’t like how I spend my free time I listen carefully to them. And after that I usually make a decision to do what they want me to do. Yes, I meet my friends pretty often. Generally, we go to the nearest cinema together.

By the way, do you play games with your sister? Do you like to talk with her? Does she play some of her music to you ?

I’ve better go now as I have to do my homework. I’m looking forward to your answer. Keep in touch.

Yours,

(Твоё имя)
