Please Take Care of My Cat TASK: A friend has agreed to look after your house and pet while you are on holiday. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter - give contact details for when you are away - give instructions about how to care for your pet - describe other household duties _______________________________________________________ Hi Sara, How are you? How is Spain? I know you've had a vacation recently and visited Valencia. I really hope you've spent a great time with your boyfriend. I'm so happy you agreed to look after my place while I'm on a conference in Sweden. I'm leaving in a couple of days and going to be out for a week. I'll leave on Monday and be back on Sunday, but it'll be okay if you come to my place from Tuesday till Saturday. There isn't much things I'd like to ask you to do. Just feed my cat and water plants. About the cat, please always leave fresh water and a full bowl of dry food for her. There is a fresh meat in the fridge, please give it 1 time in 2 days. Also, please heat it before serving. You may also give a fresh yolk and some milk to a cat. But this is optional. Regarding plants, don't worry. It's pretty easy to watch over them. Just check every pot everyday and once the top soil is dry, water it. That's it. Feel free to cook and having a nap if you want, but please don't have parties - our neighbors won't be happy if you do . A password for Wi-Fi is on the stick note on the fridge. Thanks a lot, N~

Formal Letter Practice #1 TASK: You have a new job and can no longer attend your regular English class Write a letter to the English school. In your letter: - describe the situation - explain the problem - say what you would like to happen now that you cannot attend the lesson. _______________________________________________________________ Dear Mrs Johnson, I'm writing you with regard to English classes I have attended for the last 6 months. Despite of the fact I find your lessons very helpful and interesting, I will no longer be able to attend them, unfortunately. This is because of the change in my job status - I have been promoted recently and from the next Monday my working day starts from 9am and ends at 5pm. Because of our English classes are scheduled on 12 pm and last 2 hours every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and I have to be at office during this time, I have no other options but request to cancel our classes starting from the next week. However, being extremely determined in improving my level of English language, I am wondering if there is a possibility to re-schedule our lessons to evening sessions, starting from 6pm, for example. Monday, Wednesday and Friday are still acceptable, but I may use other days, if it is more convenient for you. I would be more than happy to continue attending your English lessons, if aforementioned conditions could be achieved. Looking forward to hearing from you soon, Nadiya

My Home Town I was born and grew up in Kharkiv, a city located on the north-east of Ukraine. Kharkiv is an old city. Founded in the middle of 17th century as a fortress, nowadays Kharkiv became one of the largest cities of Ukraine. According to the legend, Kharkiv was built by cossak Kharko and named after him. Being a part of the Russian Empire, Kharkiv used to be a major center of Ukrainian industry and culture. For 15 years, from 1919 till 1934, Kharkiv was the capital of Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. Do I love my city? Surprisingly, but now it's hard for me to answer this question. When I was a child, I always said "Yes, absolutely! Kharkiv is the best city for living!" But now, when I'm an adult I've reconsidered many things, and my answer won't be so simple. I do love my city because it's alive. There are a lot of universities and every year young people, Ukrainian and foreign students, come to study and live here. If you walk along Sumska street, turn to Freedom Square and go till Constitution Square (all these places are located in the center of the city) from September till June, you'll see young people running on business or just having a rest in the park. I like to watch over these people. Also I really enjoy that we have rich cultural live in Kharkiv. You can always find a cafe, a restaurant or a pub with bands playing live music on daily basis. There are a lot of night clubs for people who like loud music and dances all night long, and many cozy coffee houses where you can meet with friend and spend some time peacefully. Another important thing which I really appreciate is that Kharkiv is always clean. Yes, sometimes you can meet plastic bag flying above your head in suburbs, but generally it's a pleasure to go for a walk in Kharkiv. But there is one thing which disturbs me a lot and forces me to consider about moving from my city. It's people and their behavior. Being the citizens of Kharkiv, many people are proud just because they live in "the 1st capital of Ukraine", and such glory very often turns into insolence and self-glorification. There is even a local expression which describes this type of behavior, and it's called "Kharkiv grandstanding". Such attitude turns in behavior which I find inappropriate and uncomfortable. And this is very annoying. I'm not pretending to be right, this is only how I feel Kharkiv. And most probably I misjudge people from my city. But, of course, the city of Kharkiv deserves to be loved.
