Dear first year students!

When the end of sth becomes visible, as usual people make short generalization of things they achieved. I won’t leap to conclusion when say, that this year was exhausting. Let’s make a brief summary of our achievements and reveal some tips, how to pass Vocabulary successfully.

Firstly, it’s needless to say, learning needs practice and all things come with practice and only practice makes perfect. So, be ready to burn the midnight oil, to have your nose in books and to crack a book always when you have spare time. It is not as easy as ABC to be a straight A student and sit all exams with flying colors.

Secondly, start to bottle up your emotions just now. Being vulnerable and pouring all out won’t bring you enormous benefits writing for eg. blogs ( bwriting blog give us a lesson, how important is to be persistent, determined and razor-sharp minded).

Show dedication to studying on every lesson. Don’t be absent-minded and panic- stricken. You must be thick- skinned, but don’t think skeptical about others. Don’t lose your temper and hit the roof. At any rate, try to create closer bond with your group mates. It may be useful J  Two heads are always better than one. In addition, you can never tell, when things went wrong and you will need a help.

In addition to all this, I would like to emphasize, that you are only young once. 

Enjoy your life; think about your relatives, as blood is thicker than water.

Keep studying, and keep looking for yourself.
Remember!!

Be active and creative. Good luck!

It is easy being green!

Going green.

Turning on TV to hear latest news. What am I getting?

“Tidal wave has destroyed all Coast and shore of Pyrenees peninsula.”

“Tsunamis and typhoons are breaking pristine nature in New Zealand”

“A lot endangered species of trees like Oak, willow, elm, pine, fir, birch were harmed by forest fires in Russia”

“Volcanic eruption caused problems to flight companies. Departure lounges are overloaded with people”

I switch the channel and watch my favorite cartoon. Why am I so indifferent to global problems, you are asking? You are the same. I can prove and even provide you and our government with absolutely vital and long-term solution to avoid an environmental catastrophe.

The contents of this list might not be new, but they need repeating. Often it takes a few reminders for things take root

vehicle emissions:

Each time we burn gasoline, oil, coal or even natural gas a lot of carbon dioxide is added to our atmosphere and destroying our ozone layer. The temperatures soar above the average and we have well-known greenhouse effect (is sometimes referred to as a global warming) with dire consequences - irreversible climate change. Are you participating in it on a regular basis? Make a confession and reduce your carbon footprint. Go on foot or change your cars into eco-cars. Or use unleaded petrol.

Disposal of household waste

Think before throw. Recycle papers, ALUMINUM,GLASS,UNWANTED WIRE HANGERS made of steel. These are not biodegradable (If it isn't recycled it can take a million years to decompose). Create an eco-friendly design in your house using natural renewable resources.

nuclear energy

nuclear reactors that provide us with energy should be replaced by alternative sources like solar energy. Is it a daunting task? Nevertheless, nuclear waste (eg. acid rains) is worse for public health.

Don’t be indifferent any more. We don’t have too much time. BRUSH WITHOUT RUNNING, TAKE A SHORTER SHOWER and PLANT A TREE. You can easily do things on your own.

Сonnection

He was a boy. She was a girl. What I can make any more obvious.They have been keeping in touch since childhood. It was not love at first sight. During school period their friendship grew and they got on well with each other.Time passed and Peter fell madly in love with Kate. He considered her to be the love of his life and a wife-to-be.
As far as Kate is concerned, she wasn’t desperately in love with him, he wasn’t her type. She even couldn’t stand him during a long time.Kate had a striking appearance,: slim figure, slender waist, oval face, shoulder-length curly dark hair, white skin and slim fit made her the top of the class. But there were some features in her character that diverted people from cementing a long-term friendship. Kate gave an impression of being highly intelligent, she had razor-sharp mind, but had a tendency to make spontaneous decisions. Sometimes she was brutally honest and could hurt others’ feelings.One day she threw a meeting with Peter to reveal her true character and break up with this innocent boy.
-         Peter, I appreciate your determination and stubbornness in studying, you really has a heart of gold, you are sensitive and easy –going…
Peter felt sth went wrong
-         Keep saying,Kate
-         You are charismatic, generous, broad minded, frank and not arrogant. I am sure you’ll achieve a success. But our relations are a pain in the neck. Now I have another boy. His name is Danis.
Kate never tried to step someone’s shoes or to put others first. She set her own high standarts of relationships. The thing was that Peter had a plain appearance: round cheeks, upturned nose, rather plump fit, fair curly ginger hair and freckles, - scruffy and sometimes untidy looking person.To make a long story short,  a couple splited up. As in the song:
“5 years from now
She sits at home
Feeding the baby she's all alone
She turns on TV
Guess who she sees
Her Peter  rockin' up MTV
She call up her friends
They already know
And they've all gotTickets to see his show
She tags along
Stands in the crowd
Looks up at the man that she turned down.”

So, Don’t judge a book by its cover, or your life can play joke on you.

On the move

     

 My dear Victoria!

    Last days, enjoying a relaxing holiday with my family, I had chanced to look through our old photos. How I miss our old good days. It was time, when we did not have to apply for a visa; we did not even have a visa planing a trip overseas, only a valid passport. Unfortunately, the length of our trips, that we could afford, lasts the whole life and was called a migration.     

   The war was declared when I was 10 and my father, being in a tight corner, made a decision to flee from it. We found numerous refugees as we were, because people were not given an asylum. Prejudiced people from ethnic minority joined us and we left our native country, Italy. Refugees were flooding the USA. There were no airplanes, helicopters or yachts. We had to move by passenger trawler.

   

          Having arrived to New York, according to the stereotype, we felt culture shock and strong desire to go back. In addition, in Ellis Island, “eye man” investigated us. So, we were asked not to show any illnesses. Nevertheless, we did not feel animosity to inhabitants and tried to live in peace with them. We had strong faith in better future and were ready to stand all difficult circumstances. Moreover, needless to mention your donation and assisting in all branches of our new lives.  You helped us to find our apartment, helped with luggage. Your father has a work shop and having got accustomed to a new house, we helped him with his work. Do you remember? I can’t forget our lazing around old cobbled streets. New York was stunning and vibrant city and architecture was remarkably diverse. It had its unique charm. Sometimes, when we wanted to get away from it all, we climbed on the hill and observed this thriving city. And at the evenings washed clothes.
          As far as my brothers concerned, they went to school as well as yours. We often played games on the street or went to Nekelodeon (I adored Charley Chaplin).
         We had magnificent adolescence. Thank you for participating in my life at that difficult for me time.Yours faithfully,Rosalia

His story Her story

The war of Titans 

How to whisper a confession to your closest people under the sound of bullets above your head? Are you acquainted with life during wartime? Likely, I am not. You are trembling while thinking about it. Now we are at the edge of war. For some people, it has already started, being not yet declared, threatening world peace. The entire world try to launch a peace campaign and gives a plea for peace to avert war. The peace talks are led by outstanding nations because all they had an experience of being in war and realize all horror of it.

Let’s turn several pages of our history and revise, how the deadliest conflict in our history broke out, who took part in the most decisive battles and how desire of world domination of one person can turn into all-out war.

76 years past when Germany invaded Poland, not paying attention to a peace treaty, previously signed by Hitler and Stalin. Germany was preparing for this war and the fundamental desire was to enslave the whole Europe. The had a lot of tanks, helicopters, missiles and other stuff to commit this crime against humanity. Having coped with Poland in a few days, they were on the Soviet Union’s territory. Many boys, being prisoners of circumstances, were mobilized and had to go to war. Our army was not so well equipped and soldiers had to be within firing range of the enemy. Just imagine, by September 3, France and Britain were involved in war with Hitler and in a week, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa and Australia joined a war. It was six bloody years in our history.  From Normandy to Stalingrad, from icy Norway to the boiling deserts of Libya. On sea, on land and in the air, Italians fought Americans, Japanese fought Australians and Poles struggled Germans.  

The entire world turned into utter chaos. Thanks wise country’s army, navy and air force and devoted residents,  that served the army giving them all funding and assisting in all branches, all operations were successful.

A great wish and pure thoughts sometimes are stronger than powerful weapon.
