7. Dear Ded Moroz,
Our names are Matvey and Fyodor. We are
in year 5 at school.
We like ice-cream, burgers, tasty cakes and
cold juice . They are nice. And we like sweets,
too. We can swim, play snowballs, make a
snowman, toboggan and ski.
We like Christmas and New Year. We like to
get presents and decorate a New year tree.
Please give us a bicycle, Lego and a new
computer .
Thank you.
8. Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight!
Jingle bells, jingle bells!
Jingle all the way
Oh! What fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh
Колокольчики звенят.
Колокольчики звенят, в рождество всех веселят.
Как приятно ехать в санках, запряженных лошадьми!
Колокольчики в дороге веселятся над людьми.
Мчимся мы сквозь снег и бурю на лошадке вороной.
Мчимся, весело смеясь, к Санта Клаусу домой!
Бубенцы, лошадка, сани,
Новый год встречай скорей!
И с волшебными дарами поздравляй своих друзей.
