I’m Mark. My best friends are the members of my family. I think I have a perfect family: perfect parents, two great sisters and a younger brother. We all got along well. I have a lot of love and a lot of support. I think my brother is very close to me. Maybe he is the best.
Speaker 2
My name is Brenda. Linda is my trusted friend. We go back a long way. We live not far from each other, go to one and the same school and sit at the same desk. People say we live in each other’s pockets and that’s true. We send e-mails to each other every hour if we can’t be together.
Speaker 3
Hi! I’m Sophia. I think mum is my soul mate. I know that she will stand by me through thick and thin. She has always been a tower of strength and give me support and love whenever I needed them.
Speaker 4
My name is Paul. William is my old friend. He is already a university student but in my view he understands me much better than my classmates. William is very knowledgeable and I think he can answer all my questions which I usually have a lot. We often play football or tennis. It’s not difficult for us to spend an hour in the evening together as we live in the same building.
Speaker 5
I’m Maria. I’m absolutely sure that Miss Loveday, our principal, is my true and loyal friend. She is always ready to help, to explain, to understand. She gives us a lot of freedom but asks us to follow the school rules. The majority of pupils in my school support Miss Loveday’s ideas and consider her to be a tower of strength.

It’s been great to hear from you.
My holidays are coming to an end. I’m having a lot of fun. I spend most of my time travelling with my parents. We have been to many interesting places around the city where I live. I love it because I hate staying at home during my holidays. I find it very boring. It’s more interesting to be out with your friends or travel with your family. Because I was away most of the time I didn’t do much sport, though usually I’m fond of cycling, playing football and skiing in winter.
Please write soon.

Dear Diana,
Thank you for the letter.
You are writing that you’ve begun doing French. Sorry that it gives you trouble but I am sure it will be easier soon. Everything is rather difficult at the beginning. I know it because I’m learning two foreign languages. My second foreign language is Italian. I’ve chosen it because it sounds beautiful and I love Italian songs. I find learning foreign languages fairly interesting. Especially I love speaking Italian and English and reading books in both the languages. As I hope to become a journalist, I’m sure these languages will help me in my career.
Keep in touch.
Love,
Svetlana.

Hello, Robert,
Your letter has been a pleasant surprise. I’m so happy that you are coming to Russia. Do you think we’ll be able to meet? Of course you can’t do such a big city as St Petersburg in two days. There is so much to see. I stayed in St. Petersburg for a week last summer and couldn’t visit half the places I had planned. My advice is to begin with the city centre where Dvortsovaya Square is situated. From there you can start a bus tour around this beautiful city. As for the museums you should visit the Hermitage and the Russian Museum with their wonderful collections of pictures.
Write soon.
Love,
Nikita.
