You have 30 minutes to do this task. You have received a letter from your English–speaking pen friend Ben.
…I’m a bit angry with my brother. Our parents are very busy with their work, and we have to do a lot to help them about the house. My brother usually does the shopping and walks our dog and I have to do less pleasant housework… … What housework do you usually do? What pet do you have or would you like to have? Where would you like to live: in a big city or in the countryside, why? |
Write her a letter and answer her 3 questions. Write 100–120 words. Remember the rules of letter writing.

Dear Ben,
Thank you for your last letter. I have the same situation as you do with my older sister. I hate when somebody makes me do dishes!
But in general I like housework. I enjoy making up my room and decorating our apartment for holidays. The less pleasant things are: cleaning dishes and taking care of my grandmother’s cat. I wish I had my own pet. A dog would be great! But I think that living in a big city is harmful for dogs: there is no places to walk them and the air is extremely polluted. Choosing between city and countryside? I choose the second, because I love nature, trees and fresh air.
Write back soon.
Best wishes,
Olga
