3. Read the email and say what problems there are in Caroline’s area. Do you have the same problems in your village/town/city? Hi

Tim,
Thanks very much for your email. I was glad to hear from you.
Let me answer your questions about ecological issues. Actually, there are a few environmental
problems in my area. The main problem is that there are very few recycling containers, so very
few people recycle. Another problem is that people use too much plastic. Unfortunately, very
little plastic can be recycled, so it all ends up in landfills. Also, there are too many cars on the
roads and the air is polluted. You also asked me about parks. Well, there are few parks and
forests in my neighbourhood so there's nowhere to go to get a little fresh air. There's a large
park in the city centre but it has very little wildlife — you can hardly see any birds or animals
there. Answering your last question, I can say that in my family people waste too much
water without thinking about the negative effect it has on the environment, and it makes me
really sad.
Sorry, I have to go now. Write back soon.
Love,
Caroline

Hello Katherine,
Thanks a lot for writing to me. I’m glad all’s well with you.
Of course, I’d be glad to answer your questions about places to live.
Personally, I’ve always lived in my hometown. I was born and bred here.
I’d say what I like most about this town is the view of the countryside
that it offers and the positive sense of community. Well, it’d be better if
there were a wider range of shops, because at the moment we often need
to travel to the nearest city to get what we want.
I’d better leave it there. Please drop me a line soon.
Best wishes,
Dasha

Итоговый пример монолога
Now I’d like to give a talk about reading books.
In my opinion, modern teenagers enjoy reading a wide range of books. For example, popular
genres include fantasy, science fiction, and novels. Moreover, many young people like
mystery stories and adventure books.
There are many reasons why libraries are still necessary nowadays. First of all, they provide
free books and a quiet place for studying. Besides, they are not just about books anymore; they
often host events and have access to digital resources.
As for my recent reading, I have just finished a fascinating book. It was a fantasy novel
about a young magician who had to save his magical world from an ancient evil. The book
was full of exciting adventures and talked a lot about friendship and courage.
My attitude to reading is very positive. From my point of view, reading is not only
enjoyable but also very useful. It helps me to relax, expands my vocabulary, and allows me to
learn new things about the world.
In conclusion, I would like to say that reading is a wonderful habit for everyone.
That is all I wanted to say about reading books.
