Dear Chris!
I was very glad, when I received your letter last week. I hope, that you feel well and spent your summer holiday as great as I did.
Two weeks ago I returned from Germany! I visited its capital, Berlin, and it was really unforgettable. The city center is very beautiful. I saw Branderburg Gate and Alexander Platz. I also visited a lot of other sightseeings and museums, but these places especially imressed me by their greatness. I have flown there with my brother. As you know, he knows German, so it was rather easy to orientate ourselves. We have taken plenty of photos. Almost every our step was photographed. Our trip lasted 4 days and we stayed in a hotel not far from the city center. The hotel was very nice and cosy. The second day was rainy, so we had to stay in our room. That day I began to read "Faust" written by a world-known German writer Goethe. This book is really fascinating. We also saw a comedy "Pretty boy". We laughed a lot at this funny story. Evenings when I had nothing to do I played my the most favourite computer game "Red Alert".
I think, that's all about my journey. If there's something else left, you want to know about, please, write it in your next letter.
Looking forward for your answer,
Alice

Задание 5.
Speaking (card 1)
1. Absolutely right. The news greatly affects people, there are a lot of lies in the news, and sometimes bad news, if somewhere, for example: an accident, a murder, a person died accidentally, etc
2. It is difficult to answer this question. Sometimes the information is confirmed and true, but there are unconfirmed and deceitful, in which you should not believe, and someone can hardly believe in this information
3. I would not like to work in the media. Working there, sometimes you have to lie, speak false information, and then there will be more negative to people who work in the media. Not a good job, but you learn everything
4. In my media is the same everywhere. There is no difference, everywhere you can hear the truth and lies. It's one thing to hear truthful information, to be glad for the country. But another thing is to hear a lie, laugh or insult the media. It's time in the world to speak only the truth, not to deceive people
