Subject: Robots
…I’ve just watched a TV series about robots, their past and future. Robots are so cool! If only they could do my homework.
…What jobs would you like a robot to do at your home? What else can robots be used for? Do you find science fiction films interesting, why or why not?…

Dear Ben,
Thank you for your email. I am glad to hear from you.
You asked me a few questions about robots, and I would like to answer them now. You know if I had a robot at home, I’d like it to do all household chores and my homework, too. It would be quite helpful then. To my mind, robots can be also used for the delivery of products, car production, and driving cars. You won’t believe it, but I don’t find science fiction films interesting. They seem to me unreal and boring. There’re a lot of visual effects, but I’m not fond of them.
Sorry, I have to finish my email now.
Write back soon.
Best wishes,
Igor

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.

Best wishes,
