Dear Patricia,
(2) I’m really
sorry I didn’t answer before. I was really busy
with my project.
(3) I usually wear a skirt and a blouse or a dress, but actually in Russia, it doesn’t really matter what you’re wearing. However, clothes can vary depending on different occasions. For example, teens prefer to dress smart for a party and to wear casual or disco clothes for dancing. As for me, my favourite type of clothes is jeans and hoodies.
(4), great news! Where is your sister going to celebrate her marriage? How many people will be there? What plans do they have for their honeymoon?
(5) My mum’s calling me.
