Hi John,
Thanks for your email. I enjoy reading about your weekend in London.
Now I want to tell you about my weekends. You know that I live in Almaty, but at the weekend my family often goes to my Granny’s cottage. It is a little wooden house in the mountains, about 25 kilometers from Almaty. We go there by car. It has a garden and a beautiful view. What a wonderful place! It’s one of my favourite places.
The cottage is very small. There are only 2 bedrooms and a kitchen. But there are some chairs and a table in the garden. We usually have dinner in the open air.
There are a lot of trees in the garden: apples, plums, apricots, cherries and pears. I help to pick the fruit in the summer. Not far from the cottage there is a little river. When the weather is warm we often go swimming. Today it’s sunny and hot. Right now my brother and I are sunbathing. We are having a fantastic time here!
Write again soon, Erlan

What problems we have on our earth?
Global warming, floods, fires. But today i want to talk about t͟h͟e͟ ͟pr͟o͟b͟l͟e͟m͟ w͟i͟t͟ ͟h͟ rubbish. People usually dont think about where to put the plastic bag or candy wrapper. Its very bad because people kill not only the environment, but themselves too!
We can help our planet, if we think about this problem. You can put rubbish in a special bucket, if you cant see it, you should put it into your pocket, and find a bucket.
To conclude, i hope people will understand, that the most problems, because of their irresponsibility.
I like outdoor games, including with a ball. And the most favorite sport is volleyball. We often play it in physical education classes at school. Also, my friends and I pull the net in the yard, collect two teams and throw the ball. I like this activity much more than sitting on a bench and swinging my legs out of boredom. On the beach or in nature, we also love to play volleyball. True, without a grid it is not so convenient.
I like this game because it has fairly simple rules. We need to land the ball on half of the opposing team. In this case, you cannot kick the ball with your foot, you can only hit it with your hands. No wonder the word "volleyball" means "flying ball". The winnings are calculated by points, so there is always a chance to change the score in your favor.
Volleyball develops dexterity and strength of hands, speed of reaction and accuracy of the eye, as well as attentiveness. Those who play volleyball a lot have well-developed coordination of movements.
We cannot kick the ball, we don’t need to run around the court headlong like in football. But the legs still train when you jump up, like on springs. The movements of the volleyball player are light, graceful and beautiful. And this game is not one that takes a lot of energy.
Therefore, I like to play volleyball myself / (myself) more than watching competitions on TV, for example. Although it is interesting to watch others, because volleyball is part of the Olympic sports program.
Volleyball is a very gambling game, it tightly unites the players of one team. Here you have to fight for the team, worry about everyone's luck. And the victory brings me a lot of pleasure, which can be shared with your team!
