Subject: Learning Foreign Languages
I am on so fond of Japanese cartoons that I’ve decided to learn Japanese. Mum says it’s hard, but I think it’s worth it. Besides, their writing is cool!
What languages do you learn at school’? What other language would you like to learn and why? What do you think about my choice of Japanese?..
Write a message to Ben and answer his 3 questions.
Write 100—120 words.
Remember the rules of letter writing.

Dear Ben,
Thank you for your email. I am glad to hear from you.
You asked me a few questions about learning languages, and I would like to answer them now. You know I learn English at school. Some pupils learn two languages in other schools but that is not obligatory. To tell the truth, I would not like to learn any other foreign languages because it takes up a lot of time. I do sports and am short of time indeed. In my opinion, your choice of Japanese is great. It can be very helpful if you are going to work in Japan.
Excuse me, I have to finish my email now.
Write back soon.
Best wishes,
Igor
