An essay
Hello friends! Thank you for all your corrections! It's really useful!
***
Using a computer every day can have more negative than positive effects on your children. Do you agree or disagree?
***
The reason whether or not computers impact on children more negatively than positively is a contentious one. In today’s world it is quite typical to a child to have their own computer at home. However, is it true that computers influence on children mostly negatively?
I strongly disagree with this statement because computers play an essential role in children’s development. Due to computers children are able to study more effectively because it is known, that the key factor of successful studying is to be delighted during this process. There are many computer programs in the world which facilitate children’s development in a variety of directions. A good example of this could be the policy of education system in developed countries related to establishing computer facilities in schools. With regard to this, pupils have studied more productively.
I also contest this argument due to the fact that nowadays it is impossible to imagine a computer without the Internet connection which has made a computer the biggest library in the world. It allows children to become more intelligent and also develops their world view. As a matter of fact, there is a lot of negative information in the Internet which has to be strongly prohibited for children but unfortunately it has still available for them. However, this issue can be tackled by implementation punishments for the Internet providers because of sharing inappropriate information for young users of the Internet.
In conclusion, I would like to say, that despite of some negatives, computers have positive influence on children. Undoubtedly, computers can be harmful for children’s health as well but adults have to keep an eye on them to lessen the negative effects on children because of usage of computers.

a formal letter
Hello!
It would be interesting to know what native english think about my writing. Does it looks like a natural english letter? :)
- - -
You saw an advertisement for a tennis course in England but you have one or two problems and can’t stay the whole course.
Write a letter to the course director. In your letter:
• explain your interest in the course
• describe your problems
• find out if a refund is possible
* * *
Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing to apply for the tennis course advertised in a sport magazine last week.
I am fond of tennis and have always wanted to improve my skill in playing this amazing sport game. When I have known that my favorite tennis player is going to lead the course, I have made my decision immediately.
However, there is one problem which will not give me any opportunities to finish the course. I am not a citizen of England and unfortunately, my visa is going to be expired in 2 months. With regard to this I will not be able to attend the 3rd month of the course.
Considering the rule about necessity to pay the whole course in advance, I would like to know if it is agreeable to refund a part of money for the course because of the mentioned reason.
It would be gratefully appreciated to receive your answer as soon as possible.
Yours faithfully,
Dmitry Petrov

Why do you think people go to restaurants when they want to celebrate something?
In my opinion, there are several reasons why people celebrate their significant events in restaurants.
First of all, making arrangaments for parties by people themselves takes a lot of their time and, in the most cases make people nervous. Going to restaurants allow them to hang out with their friends in a little bit more relaxing way, because they do not need to bother about what kind of meals should be prepared, for instance.
The second reason, I would say, it is because people want to change their envorinment during their celebration. It is quite normal that a person is accustomed to their apartaments or houses and it is difficult to have appropriate mood there.

Snorkeling - my new experience
Several months ago, my wife and I did Snorkeling for the first time in our lives.
It was on the Red Sea, in Egypt. Actualy, we don't like to spend our holidays on the beach and do nothing, because it is waste our time. We prefer travel everywhere and learn something new about local sigths and people.
However, this time we decided to go to the seaside, but not for put our feet up. We planned to try snorkeling.
Now I have to say, that it was perfect holidays to us, because it was really fascinating to dive in the depth blue sea and observe its living creatures. We were in the water for hours without going out and now we miss the Read Sea and dream about comming back!

Autumn again
The autumn has come to Russia. This means a lot of rain showers and nasty chilly days. Large amount of birds have flown away to the warmer countries and now we can't hear their lovely songs until the next spring. All around is dying and will reborn in eighth months. People have put more clothes on and have started to drink more coffee.
