Dear Elizabeth,
Thanks a lot for your letter. Sorry I have not written for so long. I’ve been really busy lately.
I am really glad to hear that you read historical books.
As for me, I like to read detectives and fiction. They make me think and dream. I think that 20th century is the most important and interesting period. During that time, the most important science and cultural events happened. If I had a time machine I would visit America, New York at the time when people started building this city.
By the way, what camera did you get? Do you like it? Is it a digital or film one?
Well, I’d better go now because I have to do my homework.
