Dear Richard,
Thank you for your letter, I am glad to hear that you like going out with your friends.
Now about free time with my friends and my hobbies. I usually like spend my free time by hanging out with my friends. We usually walk together, eating pizza or playing to bowling. I do not think that I am a stay-at-home type. I usually spend my weekends with my family in our country house or sometimes my friends and I playing computer games online. I do not have a lot of hobbies but I have one. It is golf, I do it for two month and I really like it.   
Now about your friend. Who is your friend? How old is him ? What is his name ?
Anyway, I have to go now because it is time for my favorite TV  show.
Love,
Artem

Dear Bill,
Thanks a lot for your letter. It is great, that you have already chosen your future job. Talking about me, I am absolutely sure of my future job, because I want to become a teacher, as my father and his father. Well, also you asked me why I want to become a teacher. The reason is very simple. I like children. Children are very kind and nice, so I want to spend my time with them, but who expect the teacher can spend a lot of time with children?
Now about your travel plans, where do you want to go? How much money do you have for it? Would you miss you parents and friends, during the travel?
Sorry,I have to go. I’ve go a lot of things to do for tomorrow. Write me back as soon as possible.
Best wishes,
Margarita

         Dear Tom,

          Thank you for your letter. I was glad to have a hearing from you. I hope your trip to Scotland was quite interesting and you enjoyed it well.
          In Russia there are many teenagers that may think about becoming indepent from their parents at the age of 18-19 years old. I don't think that this is a good idea because you may make some mistakes in this period of time. It's better to gain some experience in this sphere, so I don't really want to hurry up with this. In Russia there are many dormitories for students, so this is not a general problem.
          What country would you like to visit next? What do you think about visiting Russia? Can you tell me more about Scotland?
          I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
           
           Best whishes,
           Vlad

Dear Andrea,
Thank you for your letter! It was nice to read from you.
In your letter you asked me about collecting something and pocket money.
Personally, I collect little figures of angels,because i find them really cute and beautiful.
Talking about pocket money, I usually spend them while going out with my friends,for example on buying tickets to different events or to eat something yummy.
What about my parents attitude towards it, my father is absolutely ok with that and my mom just loves to spend my pocket money with me!
I was very glad to hear you have entered some courses. What exact courses have you entered? Are there lots of people there? How do you like studying these courses?
I'm looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes,
Arina.
