Dear Gill,
Thank you for your postcard from New York.
I really envy you going to all those exciting places!
There’s no chance of a holiday for me this year, I’m afraid. I’m saving up to buy a car. The driving lessons are going well, and my test is looked for next month. Wish me luck! I haven’t seen you for ages and I’d love to hear all your news. Why don’t you come down and stay one weekend? Let me know if/ when you’ll be free. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Love Hazel

Three years ago, in an effort to make an American LLM more accessible, we joint with Suffolk University Law School of Boston to offer a recognized LLM based in Budapest.
The tuition for this special LLM Programme over three years is less than $15,000.
Seventy- one participants from thirty two countries attended the July 2008 LLM session in Budapest.
I hope that some of your younger faculty members might have interest in obtaining an American LLM in Budapest.
I will be happy to provide full information to anyone who might be interested and to assist them with the application process.

Прочитайте письмо и поставьте части письма в логическом порядке, в соответствии с вышеуказанными образцами.
1 Well, I’m going to the library now and I’m short of time. I miss you and hope to see you soon.
2. At last I have some time to write and tell you about my roommates and studies here.
3. Miguel is a down-to-earth nice guy from Spain. He gave me a hand (to help) yesterday when I was cramming for the test and he explained some rules to me.
Do you remember Steve? He turned out to be such an airhead. Everything goes in one ear and out the other. Teachers are not on our backs all the time and sometimes it’s difficult to find get-up-and-go factor. Steve is falling behind on his work. I think they are going to throw him out of the University (to press him to leave the University).
4. Dear Mom and Dad,
5. All of us are good buddies (friends) and we spend time together, though we haven’t got much of it. I’m really busy with my studies, I always eat and run because every minute is scheduled. Yesterday, for example, I had a class presentation and I was afraid I was going to embarrass myself. At first I had butterflies in my stomach (нервная дрожь, вызванная нервным напряжением или страхом) and I had goose bumps all over. I think I looked like a dummy (a fool, a pumpkin head), but I managed to cope with (cправиться с чем-либо) my nervousness and everything was all right. The questions the students asked were neither tough nor tricky.
6. I’ve made friends with some students. They are also freshmen from the law and art faculties, and we share a room in the hostel.
Sam is a straight A-student (an excellent student) and a computer genius, but he is neither a workaholic nor a crammer 0(a person who learns by heart without understanding), though he is a teacher’s pet.

Прочитайте письмо и ответьте на вопросы, представленные ниже.
Dear Mom,
Sorry for the long silence, but I was very busy with the preparation for my interview for a mobility programme.
I had to prepare a lot of documents for it, such as CV, Letter of Motivation, a Letter of Recommendation and some others. It was something! I guess it was the most hectic (very busy) period of the academic year. The most difficult task was to get a letter of recommendation: all our professors are so overloaded (перегружены) that they haven’t got a spare minute. But I was lucky! My tutor was kind enough to write the letter of recommendation at the last minute (в последний момент). The content of the letter was a great surprise for me. She praised me high up to the sky (очень хвалила). She evaluated my academic achievements as excellent. I was among the top-ten students. She also noted that I was a diligent, hard working, self-managing and goal-oriented student. I was greatly encouraged.
The night before the interview was sleepless; I was nervous and couldn’t fall asleep.
In the morning I had a cup of coffee only to freshen up.
There were three interviewers in the hall. They were tolerant and not bossy, so the atmosphere was friendly. Their questions were quite predictable except one, about my staying abroad. They wanted to know if I was homesick. You know for me it is a tricky question. Do you remember my first letters from North Carolina? My answer was sincere and I told them as it had really been at first.
I think they were satisfied with my answers, my documents, and of course with the way I presented myself.
The results of this interview will be ready in 3 days. As soon as I get them, I’ll let you know.
Love to Dad and Granny.
Yours
