Hello, I already read your letter. You are very lucky with the teacher! My favorite school subjects are literature and English, it’s fun in the classroom, the teachers are calm and interesting. Natural history is cool, I haven’t been studying it for very long, only (5,6,7,8,9) years. (на выбор,я кину перевод) (I believe that these items will be useful  for my future profession) (I believe that these items will not be useful to me in my life, but they are funny and interesting). I'm fine. Will you come in the summer? I am really looking forward to seeing you! I really miss and am very glad that you are doing well! Well, I have to go to my distance learning English lessons. They will be fun, however, as always. All the best, your friend(свое имя)

Здравствуйте, я уже прочитал ваше письмо. Вам очень повезло с учителем! Мои любимые школьные предметы - литература и английский, в классе весело, учителя спокойные и интересные. Естествознание - это круто, я не изучаю ее довольно долго, всего 5,6,7,8,9 лет. (на выбор) (Я считаю, что эти предметы будут полезны для  моей будущей профессии) (Я считаю, что эти предметы не будут полезны для меня в моей жизни, но они забавные и интересные). Я в порядке. Ты придешь летом? Очень жду встречи с вами! Я очень скучаю и очень рад, что у вас все хорошо! Ну, я должен пойти на мои уроки английского языка дистанционного обучения. Они будут веселыми, впрочем, как всегда. Всего наилучшего, твой друг(имя

Big Ben is a bell in the clock tower at the Palace of Westminster in London. There are two versions of the origin of the name of the tower. The first version says that Big Ben was named after Sir Benjamin Hall, who ran the casting of the bell. Another says that the heariest bell at the moment (13.7 tonns) got its name after Benjamin County, a very famous boxer in the heavyweight division at the time.

Construction. The tower was built on the design of English architect Augustus Pugin in 1858. For the first time the clock was wound on May 21, 1859. Officially, the tower was named as "The Clock Tower of Westminster Palace".

Managing the Clock. When the clock on the tower rush or lag (the error is small - only 1.5-2 seconds) an old English penny is placed on the pendulum. Putting or a coin the superintendent manages to get the precision of the machinery. Now Big Ben is one of the most famous constructions of the UK.
