Dear Mary,

I am glad to receive a letter from you. I was really bored with my chemistry lessons.

Yes! I drink 1.5 liters of pure water per day. I tried to consume vitamins. I eat vegetables every day. A good sleep at night makes any human really fresh, happy and strong. I am not a super healthy guy, but i think that if you want, you can drink a glass of champagne or a glass of wine.
 
I am really happy for you! What sea did you choose? Do you like the salt sea water? When was the last time you were at the seaside?

Sorry, Mary, I have to go. I need to finish the project in chemistry. I will be waiting for your answer!

Best wishes,
Ilya

Dear Jane,
   Thank you for writing back to me, I haven’t heard from you in a long while. Probably because it took me a while to send a letter back to you… please forgive me! Now that it’s summer time we should have enough time to send loads of letters.
 I don’t have that many duties; we have a worker doing it all. My parent’s never really ask for my help, but I guess it’s important.
     You got a kitten? That’s cool. Do you know what breed it is? Or how old is it?! This is so exciting! I always wanted a kitten. I heard its hard taking care of them though, is that true?
    That’s about it for now, I have to go now, I hope everything is well with you!
Sincerely,
Max

Dear Molly,

Thanks for your letter. I am glad to hear it from you. Wow, that’s so cool, now you can stay more time with your sister
  Ok, lets talk about your questions. I think, that babysitting with any is very hard, tedious and boring. As you know, I haven’t got any brothers and sisters in my family, but in my opinion, I agree with this notion. And I like to be single child in my family, because you can do anything you wish in any time.
  Although, I have some questions to you. Do you like New York City? What would you like to visit in NY? Have you got good relationship’s with your cousin? Why?
  Sorry, Molly, I need to go now, as I have to help my mum in the kitchen. Hopefully, we can pick up this talk later.
     Best wishes,
     Alexander.
