You can't choose family and place of born

You can't choose family and place of born but you are free to choose place for living to enjoy you time... Aisha Tyler Quotes: You can't control where you were born, the family you were born into, what you look like; you can't control any of those circumstances. The only thing you can control is how you react.

Топик Friends – Друзья

Топик Friends – Друзья I think it is very important to have friends, because any person needs someone to communicate and share interests with. My best friend is my classmate Pavel. He is fifteen. He is a tall boy with a round face and grey eyes. His hair is short and fair. Pavel lives very close to my block of flats. We often spend time together. We go for walks, play computer games and do our homework. I really enjoy spending my time with him. Pavel is a very good pupil and he studies really well. Sometimes he helps me with school subjects if I have any difficulties. I should say that my classmates are really friendly. We always help each other and I usually invite them over to my apartment for birthday parties. Pavel and my classmates are not my only friends. I have other friends outside school, too. Mary is one of them. She is older than me. Mary studies in the 11th form. She likes dancing and has a big collection of music on Apple music. She wants to be a professional dancer and she knows many interesting facts about musicians and music in general. She doesn't have much time because she attends dancing classes and I am sure that she will make a wonderful career as a dancer. Reading is Mary's other hobby.

Топик Pen Friends and Emails – Друзья по переписке

Топик Pen Friends and Emails – Друзья по переписке Modern technologies made it possible for people to communicate easily in a way which is more convenient for them. There are different ways of communication today: older ones like post, telephone and fax and modern ones like email, SMS and social media sites. It has become much easier to write an email and send it to your friend or colleague and you are sure that it will reach its addressee in a few seconds even if the distance between you is huge. It has also become very easy to meet new people and make friends at distance. With the help of such social media sites like Instagram, Facebook or their Russian analogues VK.com or Odnoklassniki you can either find people who you have lost contact with or make new friends. Forums and chats help people with similar interests to create groups and discuss things that interest them. Many of them meet in real life and communicate. As for me, I consider myself a "digital native" and I am interested in new gadgets and the Internet. I usually spend my free time on social media sites too. I have profiles on Instagram and Facebook and post pictures and status updates. It's nice to get comments on them and also it is cool to hear from people who you haven't heard from for a long time. Furthermore, it is easy to drop a message to your friends or discuss something online. My parents are "digital immigrants", so I had to teach them to use the Internet and email. I am proud that I succeeded in it and now they have their own profiles on some social media sites and use email often. I have got some pen friends too. One of them, Tom, lives in America in Texas. He is my peer and we usually drop each other emails. On the one hand, it is extremely interesting to know what life is like in America and learn about their habits and culture. On the other hand, I have a very good opportunity to practice my English. I ask Tom to correct mistakes in my letters and this really helps me in my studies. My other pen friend's name is Angela, she is from Bonn, Germany. She speaks English well and she is fascinated by Russia and our traditions and way of life, so I tell her about my country and the way we live here. Angela is thinking of learning Russian as a second foreign language. I think it is really important to have pen friends from different countries. This will help you practice English or another language that you learn and also it will give you an opportunity to learn something about the life of other countries and their culture. Вопросы к топику – Questions: Are you a "digital native"? What ways of communication do you personally use? Which do you use more often, post or email? What are the ways of communication? What in your opinion is the most convenient way of communication? What about your parents/grandparents? Are they "digital natives" or "digital immigrants"? Why? What is your opinion about social media sites? Why do you use these sites? Do you have a profile on any of the social media sites? Do you use internet chats or forums?

Do you think it might be dangerous to meet users from internet chats and forums in real life? Why (not)? What do you think about pen friendship in general? What similar interest do you have?

Топик My Favourite Holiday - Мои любимые праздники

Топик My Favourite Holiday - Мои любимые праздники My favourite holiday, or, better to say, holidays are, definitely, the New Year and Christmas. I n Russia the New Year is celebrated twice — on January 1, according to the Gregorian calendar, and on January 14, according to the Julian calendar which was used in Russia before 1918. Christmas is a traditional holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus with both religious and secular aspects. It is commonly observed on December, 25 by Catholics, and on January, 7 by the Russian Orthodox Church. New Year and Christmas are the first, and the most joyful, holidays of the year, when people see the Old Year off and the New Year in. I enjoy the holidays for several reasons. Firstly, they have a special atmosphere of joy and excitement everyone looks forward to for several months. They are holidays of renewal and magic, exchanging presents and wishes. Most people, irrespective of their age, stay up all night on December, 31, setting off fireworks and making merry. Father Christmas and Snow Maiden are the popular characters of TV programmes and school festivals though no one except very young children believes in their existence. The second reason I prefer this holiday to all the rest is that it is the centre of the New Year and Christmas season which is, in fact, a sequence of holidays. It starts on the 25th of December and finishes on January 14, and everyone has a chance of relaxing after a long period of hard and stressful work. There are many New Year and Christmas traditions which make these holidays so special. For Christmas people decorate their houses with mistletoe and the Christmas tree, go to church, send Christmas cards — and, of course, give and receive gifts. My favourite Christmas tradition has been receiving and giving presents since my childhood when gifts were put into stockings for me and I believed it was Father Christmas who brought them, unheard and unseen while I was sleeping. I believe Christmas presents should be special and have a touch of magic, enabling your dearest wishes to come true. Firstly, giving gifts to all the members of the family adds to love and affection in it and helps to forget minor quarrels and misunderstandings. It makes you believe you are a family no matter what happens. Secondly, it creates the atmosphere of joy and magic. This simple and long-standing tradition helps you to believe in miracles and renewal, and regain optimism if you are in trouble. I believe Christmas is not as popular in Russia as in most Christian countries. There are two main reasons why it is not. The first one is that after the Revolution of 1917 Christmas celebrations were banned in the Soviet Union for the next seventy-five years, and a century-old tradition was destroyed. It is being restored now, but it will take some time to do it. The second one is that in Russia there is a long-standing tradition of celebrating the New Year whose traditions are very similar to those of Christmas. The only difference is that Christmas is a Christian holiday marking the birth of Jesus Christ, and Christianity is not as wide-spread in Russia now as it used to be before the Revolution. Ответьте на вопрос: What is your favourite holiday? Why? Translate the following sentences into English - Переведите предложения на английский язык В России Новый год празднуют дважды: 1 января по григорианскому календарю, и 14 января по юлианскому календарю. Рождество отмечает рождение Иисуса Христа и имеет религиозный и светский аспекты. Новый год — это праздник, в который люди провожают старый год и встречают Новый год и не ложатся спать всю ночь 31 декабря. Новый год отличает особая атмосфера радости и волнения, обновления и чудес. Рождество не так популярно в России как в других христианских странах по двум причинам: во-первых, оно было запрещено в России после революции 1917 года, во-вторых, подобные традиции характерны для Нового года, который популярен в стране.

Текст и перевод на русский язык песни Let her go – Отпусти её [Passenger]

Текст и перевод на русский язык песни Let her go – Отпусти её. В исполнении Passenger [ видео внизу ] Let her go Отпусти её Well you only need the light When it's burning low Only miss the sun When it starts to snow Only know you love Her when you let her go Only know you've been high When you're feeling low Only hate the road When you’re missin' home Only know you love her When you let her go And you let her go Staring at the bottom of your glass Hoping one day you'll make a dream last But dreams come slow and they go so fast You see her when you close your eyes Maybe one day you'll understand why Everything you touch surely dies But you only need the light When it's burning low Only miss the sun When it starts to snow Only know you love Her when you let her go Only know you've been high When you're feeling low Only hate the road When you’re missin' home Only know you love her When you let her go Staring at the ceiling in the dark Same old empty feeling in your heart 'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast Well you see her when you fall asleep But never to touch and never to keep 'Cause you loved her too much And you dived too deep. Что ж, тебе нужен свет, Когда костер горит тускло, Лишь тогда ты скучаешь о солнце, Когда начинается снегопад. Лишь тогда ты понимаешь, что любишь её, Когда ты позволил ей уйти. Лишь тогда ты понимаешь, что был счастлив, Когда тебе становится грустно, Лишь тогда начинаешь ненавидеть дорогу, Когда начинаешь скучать по дому. Лишь тогда ты понимаешь, что любишь ее, Когда позволяешь ей уйти, И ты позволил ей уйти. Ты уставился на дно стакана, И надеешься, что когда-нибудь продлишь этот сон, Но сны приходят медленно, зато кончаются быстро. Как только закрываешь глаза, сразу видишь её, Возможно, однажды ты поймешь, почему всё, Чего ты касаешься, неизбежно гибнет. Но тогда тебе нужен свет, Когда костер горит тускло, Лишь тогда ты скучаешь о солнце, Когда начинается снегопад. Лишь тогда ты понимаешь, что любишь её, Когда ты позволил ей уйти. Лишь тогда ты понимаешь, что был счастлив, Когда тебе становится грустно, Лишь тогда начинаешь ненавидеть дорогу, Когда начинаешь скучать по дому. Лишь тогда ты понимаешь, что любишь ее, Когда ты позволил ей уйти В темноте ты уставился в потолок, В твоём сердце та же пустота, потому что Любовь рождается медленно, но умирает быстро. Ты видишь ее, когда засыпаешь Но тебе её не коснуться и не удержать, потому что Ты любил слишком сильно, И погрузился слишком глубоко. Кадры из фильма Grand Hotel (Гранд-отель), Испания, 2011. Большая история любви молодого человека по имени Хулио и Алисии Аларкон, члена семьи, которая владеет отелем. Молодой человек Хулио приезжает в идиллическое место Гран Отель, где он будет расследовать исчезновение своей сестры, притворившись официантом. Но на пути его расследования встретится Алисия Аларкон, член семьи, которая владеет отелем и которая станет единственным человеком, готовым помочь ему раскрыть правду. Между ними начнется невозможная история любви. Им мешает то обстоятельство, что Алисия помолвлена с Диего, амбициозным юношей, который готов на все, чтобы стать директором Гран Отеля.

Текст и перевод на русский язык песни Why worry – Зачем беспокоиться [Dire Straits]

Текст и перевод на русский язык песни Why worry – Зачем беспокоиться. В исполнении Dire Straits [ видео внизу ] Why worry Зачем беспокоиться Baby I see this world has made you sad Some people can be bad The things they do, the things they say But baby I'll wipe away those bitter tears I'll chase away those restless fears That turn your blue skies into grey Why worry There should be laughter after the pain There should be sunshine after rain These things have always been the same So why worry now Why worry now Baby When I get down I turn to you And you make sense of what I do I know it isn't hard to say But baby Just when this world seems mean and cold Our love comes shining red and gold And all the rest is by the way Why worry There should be laughter after the pain There should be sunshine after rain These things have always been the same So why worry now Why worry now Детка, я вижу, снова ты грустишь Обидел мир тебя, малыш, Поступки чьи-то и слова, Но детка… сотру следы я горьких слёз, Рой отгоню тревожных грёз, От них сереют небеса. Не беспокойся, Смех зазвенит и боль уйдет, Сиянье солнца сменит дождь, И так бывает каждый раз, Не беспокойся... не беспокойся сейчас Детка, к тебе иду, когда беда, И ты поймешь меня всегда, Да, это так легко сказать… Но детка, пусть мир так холоден сейчас, Любовь согреет солнцем нас, И только это важно знать Не беспокойся, Смех зазвенит и боль уйдет, Сиянье солнца сменит дождь, И так бывает каждый раз, Не беспокойся... не беспокойся сейчас
