Перевод письма:

Привет, Элисон!
Как дела? Прости, что давно не писала, но я готовилась к университетским экзаменам, а ты знаешь, как это занимает всё время! В общем, я получила твоё письмо и очень рада, что ты приедешь погостить у меня несколько дней! Я знаю, что одна из вещей, которые тебе нравятся в моём городе, — это шопинг, поэтому расскажу тебе о нескольких местах, которые я открыла. Прежде всего забудь о торговом центре! Всего в десяти минутах езды на автобусе от моего дома есть замечательный блошиный рынок, где можно найти потрясающие вещи по невероятно выгодным ценам. Уверена, тебе понравится яркая атмосфера и шумные уличные торговцы, которые будут зазывать тебя посмотреть на свои прилавки. Ещё одно место, где мы можем делать покупки и заодно помочь благотворительности, — это магазин Oxfam в центре города. Там в основном продают вещи, бывшие в употреблении, но они в очень хорошем состоянии и стоят недорого. В прошлый раз я купила там четыре книги и пять компакт-дисков! Брат говорит, что каждое воскресенье прямо за городом проходит хорошая распродажа подержанных вещей, но я там ещё не была. Можем сходить вместе, если хочешь! Уверена, ты набьёшь чемоданы новыми вещами, которые увезёшь домой. Но имей в виду: в этих местах можно расплачиваться только наличными, так что оставь кредитную карту! Мне пора идти. Нужно зайти в оптику за новыми очками для чтения.
До скорой встречи,
Анна
