Dear Jack,

Thanks for your email. It’s great that your sister is visiting London. Since she’s on a tight budget, I suggest she tries the street markets first. Camden Market and Brick Lane are lively places with affordable clothes and souvenirs. She should go on weekdays, preferably in the morning, because prices are often lower and there are fewer crowds. There are also many charity shops and discount stores, where she can find books, clothes and gifts at very low prices. If she likes fashion, she can visit high-street shops during the sales. I hope she has a wonderful trip!

Best wishes, Alex

Как понять принцип

• В задании нужно письмо другу, поэтому стиль неформальный: есть обращения, сокращения вроде it’s, she’s, дружелюбные фразы.
• В письме должны быть ответы ровно на три вопроса: где, когда и какие магазины. У меня это три смысловые части.
• Начинаем с Dear Jack,, заканчиваем Best wishes, ... — это стандартные начало и конец неформального письма.
• Я проверил объём: 103 слова, то есть укладывается в 100–110. Имя Alex замени на своё; если оно длинное, пересчитай слова.
