Subject: The Earth Hour

…Yesterday was a special day — we had the Earth Hour. It’s one of the ideas of an ecological group called the Green Movement. We switched off the lights for one hour to draw people’s attention to the poor ecological situation on the planet.

…Do people have the Earth Hour in your country? What can people do to save energy in their everyday life? Do you approve of the Green Movement, and why?…

Dear Ben,

Thank you for your email. I am glad to hear from you.

You asked me a few questions about saving energy, and I would like to answer them now. To tell the truth, people do not have the Earth Day in my country. It is no as popular as in yours. I think people can do a lot to save energy in their everyday life, for example, switch off light at home, use fewer home appliances. Honestly speaking, I neither approve of the Green Movement nor deny it. They call for green behaviour, but this is more like a dream than a reality.

Sorry, I have to finish my email now.

Write back soon.

Best wishes,

Igor

Subject: New Year resolutions

…On December 31st I usually write my New Year resolutions. Unfortunately. I don’t usually keep them. But this year I decided to be persistent: to make a resolution and keep it.

…Do you make New Year resolutions, why or why not? What new hobby or new sport would you like to try? What do you usually do in your free time?…
