Thank you for your letter. My name is Dima. I'm twelve years old and live in the city of Novosibirsk, in Russia. I will answer all your questions with pleasure. My family is not very big. We are four: Mum, Dad my elder sister Lina and me. I have no pet. My hobby is riding my bike. Also, I like swimming. I go to the swimming pool every week. In summer my friends and I often swim in the lake. I like to have rest by the lake with my family, as well. I like to surf the Internet, and I like to listen to music. Well, and I enjoy playing football, of course. You don't like to do the shopping, me too. Now I am finishing my letter. Hope to hear from you soon. Keep in touch. Best wishes, Dima
Дорогой Джефф,
за письмо. Меня зовут Дима. Мне двенадцать лет и я живу в городе Новосибирске, в России. С удовольствием отвечу на все твои вопросы.
Моя семья не очень большая. Нас четверо: мама, папа, моя старшая сестра Лина и я. У меня нет питомца. Мое хобби - езда на велосипеде. Кроме того, я люблю плавать. Я хожу в бассейн каждую неделю. Летом мы с друзьями часто купаемся в озере. Мне также нравится отдыхать у озера с семьей. Я люблю бродить по интернету, и люблю слушать музыку. Ну, и мне, конечно, нравится играть в футбол. Ты не любишь делать покупки, я тоже. На этом я заканчиваю свое письмо. Надеюсь услышать от тебя ответ в ближайшее время. Не теряйся!
