dear matthew,
i was delighted to receive your letter, and i am so glad to have a pen-pal in the canada.
let me tell you something about my city. well,it is a very beautiful city especially in autumn when all trees are of different colors. the most popular place in kazan is baumana walking street. it is the street where beautiful statues are.
we have an unusual climate in kazan. normal temperature for winter is minus 14 degrees. if you come in winter, be sure to go to the square of the freedom where you can usually find ice slides. the city is even more beautiful in summer than in winter. normal temperature for summer is plus 25. i think you should come here in summer because there are a lot of fountains, theaters, parks.
best wishes,
ella
The advantage of watching TV is a simple way to relax. You watch TV when you are tired and it helps to forget your problems. It also tells us what is happening in the world. It is a great way of spending free time. There are a lot of channels and you can see everything you want - films, news, sport, games, shows and so on,
But watching TV is a passive activity. You lie on the sofa and do nothing. TV is a bad influence on people. Especially on children and teenagers when parents don't pay attention what are they watching. We talk less. We are as a zombie - TV zombie.
Instead of TV you can go to the museum. listen to the radio, read newspaper.
As for me I like watching TV. I like watching films. Especially I like detective and action films. But I try to watch TV not very often.
