Email to a penfriend

Hi Alex,

How are you? I’d like to tell you about my free time. I usually meet my friends, ride my bike and watch films. At weekends, we sometimes go to a café or visit a museum. What do you like doing in your free time?

Best wishes,
Sam

Leaflet: Stay safe in the streets

• Always use pedestrian crossings and obey traffic lights.
• Look left and right before crossing the road.
• Keep your valuables out of sight.
• Do not talk to strangers or accept anything from them.
• Stay in well-lit places and tell an adult where you are going.

Where I go in my free time

In my free time, I often go to the park near my house. I walk, ride my bike and meet my friends there. Sometimes I go to the cinema or to the library. I like these places because they are interesting and relaxing.

Landmarks in my town/Russia

Russia has many famous landmarks. The Kremlin and Saint Basil’s Cathedral are important landmarks in Moscow. Saint Petersburg is famous for the Hermitage Museum and the drawbridges over the Neva River. These places attract many visitors every year.

Report on my town

My town is a quiet and pleasant place. It has several parks, schools, shops and sports centres. There is a central square with a monument and a small museum. People can walk along the main street and relax by the river. I like my town because it is comfortable and friendly.
