Dear Nancy,

Thank you for your recent letters. I’m glad to receive your letter again. Sorry, I didn’t write you because I was very busy with my exams.

You asked me interesting questions and I’m ready to answer them. As for me, I’d wear a queen's costume. I’d make it myself because I want my costume to be exclusive. In general, I think that costume parties are a good way to have fun and get positive emotions.

As I know, you will visit a museum next week. Is it a historical museum? Where is it located? How large is the museum?

Sorry, my mum asks me to help my brother with his homework.

Keep in touch.

Best wishes,

Natalia

There is a controversial topic about how teenagers should choose a profession. Some people think that they should make a choice independently. But at the same time, others believe that young people should continue the profession of their parents.

I hold the view that young people should choose a career, not paying attention to others. Firstly, everyone has his or her own abilities that can differ from abilities of his or her parents. Secondly, every person should make a choice, regarding to his or her preferences.

Despite that, there is an opposite point of view. My opponents insist that children should follow the example of their parents, choosing a profession. For example, there are families, where all members have the same profession. Children can not choose another one in such families.

I am afraid, I could deny this argument. Young people should choose a career, according to their abilities and interests, even in such families. In the case, a person works in the job he or she does not like, this person is not happy.

To sum up, I want to say that although there are different opinions on this topic, I think that young people should make a choice of a profession, regardless of their parents' one.
