Dear Brenda! Thanks for your letter!
You are lucky to start driving lessons. It is cool! Our family has one car. It is … (модель машины) My father drives the car every day. It is very difficult to drive in my town. The streets are very busy and the roads are very bad in places. You must be always attentive driving a car. In Russia we can get a driving license at 18. What car will you drive when you get a license? Is it difficult to drive? Aren’t you afraid to drive?
Sorry. I have to go.
Write me as soon as possible.
Your friend, Nick.

I like defferent music, but my favourite kind of music is alternative rock. It is serious music. And my favourite rock band is "Muse". They are really cool! My best friend likes this band too. Also we listen to the "Green Day", "Linkin Park", "Thirty Seconds to Mars", etc.
Sometimes I listen to classical music. It gets me relaxed. I prefer the music of Claude Debussy. His compositions are slow, melodious, light and pleasant. When I feeling stressed I listen to this music.
Every day after school I listen to my stereo at high volume. It's so exciting! I want to dance and sing and listen over and over again...
I think that music isn't just songs, it's so much more!
