dear \name\,

thanks for your letter. it was great to hear from you.

in your letter you ask me about education and exams. i think education has a huge role in our lives. it gives us new knowledge and determines the future path in life. i am in the 9th grade and i already know what to dedicate my life to — i want to be a pilot. this is a difficult profession, but it doesn't scare me. this profession requires a good knowledge of physics and mathematics. guess what i will take on exams? of course physics!

well, i'd better go now as i have to do my homework. hope to hear from you soon.

all the best,

\your name\
