It is great that your cousin is visiting. My favourite relative is my uncle, Alex. He is tall and well-built, with short cropped dark hair and piercing blue eyes. He usually wears stylish casual clothes. Alex is extremely cheerful and supportive. I have never met anyone as easy-going as him. He is a skilled photographer who has achieved great success. However, he tends to be a bit disorganised. If I could change one thing about him, it would be his punctuality because he is always running late! All in all, I really enjoy spending time with him. Write back soon! Yours, Ivan --- ### Пояснение к выполнению заданий * **Exercise 3 (Объединение предложений):** Для создания связного текста простые предложения объединяются с помощью предлогов (*with*), причастных оборотов и относительных местоимений (*that*, *which*, *who*).
