Hi Alison,

How’s everything going? Sorry I haven’t written for a while, but I’ve been studying for my university exams, and you know how busy that keeps you! Anyway, I got your email, and I’m thrilled that you are coming to stay with me for a few days!

I know that one of the things you love about my city is the shopping, so let me tell you about a few places I’ve discovered. First of all, forget about the shopping mall. There’s a fantastic flea market, just a ten-minute bus ride from my house, where you’ll find the most amazing things at unbelievably good prices. I’m sure you’ll love the colourful atmosphere and the loud street vendors calling out to you to take a look at their stalls. Another place we can do our shopping, as well as do something for charity, is the Oxfam store in the town centre. It mainly sells second-hand things, but they’re in very good condition and at bargain prices. The last time I went there, I ended up buying four books and five CDs! My brother says there’s a good car boot sale on just outside of town every Sunday, but I haven’t been yet. We can go together, if you like!

I’m sure you’ll fill your suitcases with lots of new things to take back home. But you should know that we can only pay in cash at these places, so leave your credit card behind!

I’d better go now. I need to go to the optician’s to pick up my new reading glasses.

See you soon,
Anna

Перевод письма:

Привет, Элисон!

Как дела? Прости, что я давно не писала, но я готовилась к университетским экзаменам, и ты знаешь, как это отнимает время! В любом случае, я получила твоё письмо и очень рада, что ты приедешь ко мне на несколько дней!

Я знаю, что одна из вещей, которые тебе нравятся в моём городе, — это магазины, поэтому расскажу тебе о нескольких местах, которые я нашла. Прежде всего, забудь о торговом центре. Всего в десяти минутах езды на автобусе от моего дома есть замечательная блошиная ярмарка, где ты найдёшь самые удивительные вещи по невероятно низким ценам. Уверена, тебе понравится тамошняя красочная атмосфера и громкие уличные торговцы, которые зазывают посмотреть их прилавки. Ещё одно место, где мы можем заодно с покупками сделать доброе дело, — это магазин Oxfam в центре города. Там в основном продают подержанные вещи, но они в очень хорошем состоянии и по выгодным ценам. В прошлый раз я купила там четыре книги и пять компакт-дисков! Брат говорит, что каждое воскресенье за городом проходит хорошая автомобильная барахолка, но я там ещё не была. Если хочешь, можем сходить вместе!

Уверена, ты наполнишь чемоданы множеством новых вещей, которые увезёшь домой. Но учти: в этих местах можно расплачиваться только наличными, так что оставь кредитную карту дома!

Мне пора идти. Нужно зайти в оптику за новыми очками для чтения.

До скорой встречи,
Анна
