Dear Yuriy,
I am sorry, I have not written. I am moving to Phoenix Arizona. I received your beautiful book on Russian art on June3. But I had to leave Washington, D. С the next day on June 4. I was very happy that you sent me your address again because I had left your address in a box of papers in Washington to be sent to Phoenix later.
On August 15, I will move to Phoenix.
My address will be...

Hello!
Happy Easter! I'm now in Novgorod and going this afternoon back to St. Petersburg by bus. This year I decided to spend my Easter holidays in Novgorod as I have never been there before. The town is very beautiful and there are a lot of ancient buildings. I have also met a lot of interesting and kind people.
As soon as I come back I shall write you a very long letter end try to describe my impressions of this short but very wonderful trip.
                                                                                                                          With love,

Dear Jack,
You might like to correspond with a boy of your age in Russia.
I am seventeen years old and studying at a high school. I want to enter the University and study English. My father is a teacher of mathematics, and my mother is a doctor. Apart from my schoolwork, my chief interests are volleyball and photography.
When you write, don't forget to tell me what your hobbies are. I expect they will be different from mine, but I shall be interested to hear about them just the same.
I understand that you are studying Russian, and I think it would be a good Idea if you wrote to me in Russian while I wrote to you In English. This would be practice for us, and if I make any mistakes, I hope you will correct them for me.
Looking forward to your early reply. Please write me soon.
                                                                                                                        Sincerely yours,
                                                                                                                                 Lena

Dear Boris,
  I was delighted to receive your nice letter, and I am so glad to have a pen-pal in Russia.
Let me tell you something about myself. I am just fifteen and I attend our local school. I am taking eight subjects in all, but my favorite ones are chemistry and Russian. I wish I knew more about Russian culture and history.
My family is not very large. There are only three of us: my mother, my elder brother John, who is nineteen, and myself. My father died three years ago.
In my spare time I do a lot of swimming, and my other hobby is football.
It was certainly a good idea of yours to suggest my writing in Russian, but unfortunately I am not proficient enough yet and would make too many mistakes. You will be pleased to hear that in your letter you did not make any mistakes at all.
I hope you will write me again soon.
                                                                                                                            Yours sincerely
                                                                                                                                   Peter

 Dear Nathaniel,
  Since I last wrote to you we have visited Washington, New York and we are scheduled to go to Philadelphia as well. Our trip has been very enjoyable.
While in Washington we went to see the Museum of Modem Art and afterwards to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. In Washington I was much impressed by the size end magnificence of the Capitol.
  I wish you had come with us, but we are soon scheduled to return, and then I can tell you all about the trip.
                                                                        Your friend Peter.
