Hello Artur,
Thank you very much for your last email. I am glad to read about your family.lIt was interesting to learn about you even more information that  I knew before. I wish everything is good?
 and if you want to know about my family? oh,actually it does not matter, I will tell you about it in any case)!
    I think I have a lot of relatives,but I dont know anything about them. So I will tell you just about 4 people.  My sister, she is my half-sister and I have seen her 2 or maybe 3 times. How I remember she is younger than me,maybe 7 years old. My parents divorced many years ago and since then I live with my mother.But practically all summer I spend at the countryside with my grandparents. Then I was young it was really cool, but now it is a little bit boring for me,so I try to spend most of the summer, not in the country.
   So it is all what I can tell about my family I think. Write me soon.
Best wishes,
Gosha

My family

Dear Emily,
Thank you so much for your last email. It's nice to hear about your family! You don't know anything about my family so I'm going to tell you. 
My family isn't big. I'm an only child. There are 3 generations now in my family. I know that good health runs in our family. My ancestors came from Germany, but our 3rd generation still living in Moscow. I have a lot of couisns and one aunt. She is 8 years older than me. By the way, she is going to get married next summer:) 
My family hasn't got their own business like yours, but my father has his own company. However, I don't think I will inherit it cause he thinks to close it.
What else can I say about my family? Well, I really love them and they are important part of my life.
Anyway, I must finish now cause I've got a test tomorrow. I look forward to hearing from you.
All the best,
Ira

 My parents are divorced.I live with my mother. My father lives not far from me, and we often see each other. I have half-brother. He is 5 years older than me. Then, I have 2 aunts, 2 uncles and 1 grandmother and 1 grandfather. In the summer I often visit them. My other grandmother live in Kazahkstan,and my mother was living there, but I have never been in this country. We do not have a family buisness, but my mom has a small shoe store.  
My ancetors came from Kazahkstan and one more country, but I don`t remember it.

My family


Dear Holly, 
Thank you so much for your last email. So glad to have a lot answers from you. Is everything OK? I really liked your email about your family. It’s so cool! You know, family business, ancetors and all that stuff. Actually, I have not a lot of things to tell about my family. 
There are only four members in our family: me, my mom, my dad and my little brother (7 years younger than me). But I have a lot of cousins. We don’t have a family business like your family does. My father has his own company and who knows, maybe some day my brother will get it as an inheritance. My ancetors came from many different countries like Georgia, Turkmenistan etc. But my generation and the previous one live in Moscow. That’s why I have russian family name of my grand-mother, though. It’s not unexpected, but brown hair and brown eyes run in my family.
I really love my family and I know that it will always be the most important part of my life, because friendship and love end, but family stays. We always have some family dinners, evenings and so on. And you know, it's really nice! It sounds a bit boring, but it's not true.
I hope you'll write me soon. I'm waiting, remember :)
With love,
Liliana

My family

Hi Emily,
Thank you for your last email. It was very interesting to read about your family for me.Now I want to tell you about my family a bit.
I don't have a  very big family and we don't have a family business. I live with my mother and my uncle with my grandmother live not far from us. The majority of my relatives live in Moscow, but we don't spend much time together. Sometimes I don't speak to my uncle for months and we find out some information about him from my grandmother, but you can ask him for help anytime.My grandmother pensioned off last spring so now she has a lot of free time . Also my uncle had divorced with his wife some years ago and my cousin lives with her mother. So unfortunately can't spend much time with her. 
As a fact the difference in age of my mother and my uncle is 8 years and it is the same between me and my cousin, but our relationship is better than they had.
Now you know a lot about my family.Write me when something interesting happened in your life. :)
Your,
Julia.

You told me thet you have got a family busines, but I have not got family busines. But I know thet more then half of my relatives work in oil companies an I think thet when I grow up I will work there too.
If you will look at our family names ( Zakharov..and Shashin...) you can think thet our family are from Russia, and it is tru, all of my relatives as I know are from Russia.
Before I borned my mother, father and my mother's parens live in Tumen and when I borned there, they all desided to live in Moscow, so now we all live in Moscow.
My family haven't got interesting stories, so now I will tell you something about some other relatives.
I have got two uncles and three cousins. One of my uncles, my mother's brother still live in Tumen and he has got one daughter and one son and they are my cousins. My other ancle, also my moher's brother live in Surgut an he has got one son and he is my cousin too. I haven't got any brothers or sisters.

About my family

 Dear Amy,
 Thank you very much for your last email, it was nice to hear about your family. It's really great!
 Maybe you want to know something about my family too? Well, it is not big - I have both parents and a little annoying brother. There are 4 generations alive now in my family. Another fact is that blonde hair runs in our family but I don't know why.
 I have only one aunt, she's my father's sister. Her son, who is my cousin, is 7 years older than me and my brother is 7 years younger than me. I find this thing a bit funny :).
 What else can I say about my family? Well, it's friendly and very hospitable. We get on well with each other and play different games often.
 So, these are the main things about my family. Anyway, I have to go now because it's too late. However, I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible!
 Best wishes,
 Polina

Similarities and differences between Basketball and Street Ball

Street Ball is a sport that evolved from Basketball so these sports have more similarities than differences.


Both Basketball and Street Ball require skill, strong constitution and tall height. Similarly, these sports have rules, baskets and balls. But while basketball players play normal basketball and use full court and two baskets, streetballers play with only half-court and one basket. Basketball players have to run long distances, that waste energy very fast, in comparison streetballers don't, they can score by using combination in three passes. 

So Street Ball is a good game for people, who don't want to use much energy, and it is also good, if children took half-court to draw some pictures, because you can use another half and play Street Ball.

Similarities and differents between cliff diving and base jumping

These sports have differences and similarities. 

Both cliff diving and base jumping are very dangerous sports. Similary, both sports involve jumping from rocks, but difference, that base jumping is jumping with parachute landing on the ground, and cliff diving is jumping in the water. Unlike, base jumpers, cliff divers need to select the correct position for the jump. While cliff diving is jumping only from rocks, base jumpers can jumping from Buildings, Antennas, rocks.

                                 Similarities and differents between football and mini football.
Mini football is a sport that evolved from football and,indeed, the two activities have many similarities. Both mini football and football have the same rules. Similary, in both sports players should score goals and protect their goal.However they have a lot of differents. At first in mini football in one team play 5 players, and in big football-11. In football field abd the ball are much more bigger than in mini football. Also the time in mini football (25 min) is less than time in football. Both of this sports have some championships, world cups.

Similarities and differences between windsurfing and surfing

 
    Windsurfing and surfing have many differences and similarities. I'll start with difference. Windsurfing is easier than surfing. It can be used on lakes, ponds or on the sea. Windsurfing has many different types of boards for different types of windsurfing, which is not nearly as common in surfing. 
   




Surfing appeared later than windsurfing. Also it hasn't got a sail. If you want to have immediate level, you should train a lot.
   Now about similarities. Both of them belong to a surface water sport. They use boards. With their help people can ride on the water.
    

Golf and croquet.

Golf and croquet are sport games  which have similarities and differences. In  both games players use balls and clubs, but in croquet they use wooden balls and hammers and in golf they use special balls with holes and special clubs. Also both games can be played by two people or two commands. In golf you have to knock a ball in the hole to win, while in croquet your ball has to pass 9 "gates" and finally touch your team's peg. Similarly like in all sports win the game,which do this .




Similarities and differences between skateboarding and snowboarding.


Skateboarding is a sport that evolved from snowboarding so these sports have many similarities.  Skateboarders use a skateboard, a special board with small wheels on it. In comparison, snowboarders need another board called snowboard. It doesn't have any wheels so in contrast to skateboarders, who can ride everywhere, even on handrails, snowboarders can ride only on snow.

 Similarly, both sports are very precarious and require strong legs and good equilibration.Unlike snowboarders, skateboarders don't need any equipment like special shoes or fixing stuff.

SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TENNIS AND SQUASH.

SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TENNIS AND SQUASH.


Squash is a sport that evolved from tennis and they have some similarities and differences. I’ll start with differences. Squash is played by hitting against the wall against another player in a 4-wall enclosed court indoors, while tennis is played with a net separating two side of opponents court and it’s usually outdoors. Squash's ball, in comparison, is much smaller but denser than tennis's ball. A squash racket has much more smaller racket face area than that of the tennis, but their shapes are quite similar. A squash match lasts shorter (usually 1.5 hours), unlike a tennis match can last more than 3 hours on many occasions.
Now some similarities. Both sports need balls to play and more than one player. Like tennis players, squash players can play single (two players) or double (four players). There are also out line, service line that share a court of these sports. Similarly, both players can use different types of hitting a ball (service, volley, with the rebound and smash). Like in tennis, both men and women can take part in squash.

Similarities and differences between skiing and biathlon.

Similarities and differences between skiing and biathlon.
 
 
Biathlon is a sport that combines ski raсe with shooting a rifle. Both skiing and biathlon are in winter and in this sports take part athlets all around the world and both sports are olimpic sports.
Ski race can be held in any weather, while the biathlon canceled if it is strong wind or snow, as this would interfere with biathletes to hit the goal. Like in biathlon, in skiing take part both women and men. In skiing distances can be longer, then in biathlon. If you want to be a biathlete, you must not only speeding distance, but fall into the goal from a rifle, while the ski sport, you just need to pass quickly enough long distances.

                                 review of a football match

I want to tell you about one fascinating football match,which i saw a few months ago. It is a match between Manchester City and QPR on the stadium called Etihad stadium. In the last season nobody knew whio is going to be the champion before last round. two clubs from Manchester were fighting for  the xhampions cup.
In the last tour everybody expected that MU became the champion,because they won their match and the opponents lost the main time oFf the match. But referee add 5 more minutes. And Djeko made a good shoot and score became 2:2. finally,on the 4extra minute Aguero made the score 3-2 and MC became the champion!
