Дорогой Стив,
Я был очень рад получить от тебя весточку. Я не писал целую вечность из-за занятости в школе.
В своем письме ты просишь меня рассказать о моем любимом виде спорта. С удовольствием. Мне нравятся многие виды спорта, но больше всего я люблю футбол. Это игра моей мечты. Я играю за мой школьный футбольный клуб "Школьник". Мы хорошие игроки, и мы выигрываем почти все соревнования.
Кроме того, я футбольный болельщик, и мне нравится смотреть каждый матч по телевизору или на стадионе. А как насчет тебя? Расскажи мне о своих любимых видах спорта. Это все на сегодня. Мне нужно идти.
передай привет своей семье.
