Match the texts with the cards.

1 Dear Timothy,

I'm writing you from the Lucky Country. Can you imagine that it's very hot here? There is hardly a cloud in the sky. January is the hottest month here — it's mid-summer! It's about +37 °C today. People are used to such a temperature. But all houses and cars have air conditioning. People usually spend every free minute on the beach, especially at weekends. Water sports are very popular here. Young and even old people swim, dive and go surfing. The beaches are crowded. They are an important part of country's life. There are also people who prefer playing sports or just walking. The words 'Life is a beach' mean that everything is great.

Best wishes,
Carol

2 Dear Elena,

You know, I have always dreamed of coming to North America! But I couldn't imagine that the winter here would be as cold and frosty as in Russia. Our English teacher once told us about the famous writer Stephen Leacock who said that life in this country consisted of preparing for winter, enduring winter and recovering from winter. Looking around, I think he was right. Everything here is adapted for winter: nature, houses, means of transport, public places. There are many more indoor and underground centres in the cities. When it's cold outside, you can go to the shops, see a film or have a meal without going outside. Because of the snow, some parts of the country are cut off. People can only get there by air and dog sled. I hope I can do it sometime. I love dogs, frost and winter!

Love and kisses,
Kristina

3 Dear Patrick,

My dream has come true! At last I'm here! I have been dreaming of visiting the country since I started learning English. I was planning to go for a walk on my first day here. The weather was wonderful in the morning. It was sunny and warm. I knew that the weather can change very quickly here but didn't take an umbrella with me. At midday the weather started to change. A cold wind began to blow. In half an hour the rain started. I was soon getting very wet and cold. Fortunately I saw a red double-decker with tourists at a bus stop. And I had a pleasant tour for nearly an hour. When I arrived to the hotel, the sun was shining brightly again. I have read that the weather is changeable here and I had a chance to see it myself.

Yours,
Paul
