You have 30 minutes to do this task. You have received a letter from your English–speaking pen friend Emma.
| …My older brother doesn’t like reading books and can easily survive without them. He spends all his free time in the swimming pool and in the gym. I think his attitude towards books is wrong… …Why are books getting less popular nowadays? What kind of books do you prefer to read, why? What else do you do in your free time? |

Hi, Emma
Thanks for your last letter, it's a shame that you brother doesn't like reading at all. I hope someday this will change.
I think that books are getting less and less popular nowadays because of the development of the technologies. There are too many options except reading to spend your free time. But I like reading and I always have time for books. I prefer reading classical Russian novels because I like their old fashion beautiful language. In my free time I also like playing computer games and go biking with my friends.
Hope to hear some news from you soon.
Hugs,
Sam
