Фотографии. 1) женщина едет верхом на лошади по травянистому холму под ярким синим небом; 2) подросток в очках сидит за столом на улице и печатает на ноутбуке.
Что нужно сделать. Кратко описать обе фотографии для проекта «Увлечения», отметить, чем они различаются, и связать их с темой проекта; назвать 1–2 достоинства и 1–2 недостатка двух увлечений; высказать своё мнение — какое из этих увлечений вы бы предпочли и почему — и обосновать его; начать высказывание с обращения к другу и завершить его прощальной фразой.
Возможный ответ.
Ethan, hey! I've chosen two photos for the "Hobbies" project, and I think they say a lot. The first shows a woman riding a horse across a grassy hill under a bright blue sky. The second shows a teenage boy in glasses sitting outdoors on a wooden terrace, typing away on his laptop at a small table. So while one hobby has you out in nature getting active, the other keeps you glued to a screen even when you're outside, which is a nice contrast for our project. Horse riding is great exercise, and it brings you really close to nature and to animals. Spending time on the computer, meanwhile, lets you learn new things and connect with people online. On the flip side, horse riding can be expensive, and it requires proper skills and safety gear. Too much time on the computer means too much screen time, which honestly isn't very healthy. If I had to choose, I'd go for horse riding without a doubt. It's just a healthier, far more exciting way to spend your free time. Being outdoors always beats staring at a screen, in my opinion. Anyway, that's my thinking on it. I'd love to know what you'd pick. See you soon, Ethan!
