You have received a letter from your English-speaking pen friend, Emma. ...I visited my cousin’s family recently. I was very much surprised to find out that they do not watch TV at all. They don't even have a TV set in their flat! They say that if they want to find out about the news or watch a film, they go on the internet or to the cinema...
How often do you watch TV? Do you prefer watching a film at home or in a cinema, why? What activity, apart from watching TV, can you suggest for a rainy day?
Write her a letter and answer her questions.

Dear Emma,
Thank you so much for your letter, I am very glad to hear from you. To be honest, I am also surprised that some people don’t have a TV set in their flats. It seems to me that it is important to have one for movie nights with many people. Based on my experience, it is often inconvenient to watch the films on the small laptop’s screen. That is why I also enjoy going to the cinema with my friends where the screen is available to everyone due to its big size. Clearly, the quality, sound and atmosphere in cinema is much better than a TV at home. In my opinion, going to the cinema is always a great idea to spend a good time and have fun! However, cinema is situated a bit far away from my home and the tickets for favorite films often cost higher. Thus, sometimes it would be better to stay at home, watch a great movie with family and enjoy a wonderful dinner. Despite the fact that both cinema and TV have many advantages, I prefer watching films on the internet. Nowadays, the creation of social media platforms such as Netflix and YouTube makes life easier. The internet gives many possibilities to find any films you want and watch them everywhere you wish for a low price, which is the most important factor for me. In conclusion, I would like to note that although movies are very fun, there are many other activities to do. For example, a rainy day would also be perfectly completed with an interesting book. Have a good time!
Sincerely,
Your friend
