Patriots Invade England It's a breezy summer evening in Manchester A charming woman is sitting at a bar. Rachel is the beautiful name that her parents thought would suit her best. She wears a dark red blouse with a black skirt. She's dressed officially. After having a hard day at her office she's decided not to resist her temptation and come over to the bar which is the nearest one to her workplace. Sitting at the table alone she is sipping her tequila. Suddenly, her attention is drawn to a man who has just come in. He glimpes at her while he is going to the bar. It seemed to Rachel that she's been unconscious for just a second as if a lightning has stricken her. The feeling is known to all of us: love. Being astute in life, she can observe his forceful and shrewd but at the same time noble and courageous temper. Wide grey eyes fulfill his portrait. She freezes realizing he is the one she's always been looking for. The man's name is Barat. It only took him...

“India moon mission: Vikram lunar lander found on surface” Recently, India’s lunar lander made an attempt to approach the Moon in order to observe and if possible collect some samples of ice water. Considering the fact that it was the country’s second space campaign mission to the Moon, no wonder that it attracted a lot of attention from varies countries around the world because if water deposits had been found and cosmonauts had reached them, it could have helped science a lot. To begin with, although the mission had experienced a failure, nevertheless, it caused lots of countries to prove the existence of water deposits by launching their own space programmes. According to the fact that water presence is connected with life, it could’ve solved the demographic problem the Earth is facing nowadays. For example, we could build space stations on the Moon at first and then find lots of other much bigger and more convenient planets to live on. Moreover, India is now the fourth country...

  Russia-Ukraine: tentative progress at first talks for three years The topic I’ve chosen is connected to the Russian-Ukrainian issue that’s been unresolved for 5 years since the Crimea incident. The question is very controversial and the relationships between the two countries were tense, and situation still has not changed so far these days. I'd like to consider two periods in its development: what happened before the meeting and after it. It is necessary to say a few words about a certain period importance of this event The majority of European countries and the USA still consider Russian annexation of Crimea as an illegal action towards Ukraine. As an immediate response to Russia, lots of them imposed their sanctions on the Russian Federation which then resulted in the deterioration of the situation.  Thus, Russia was expelled from the G8 for such inappropriate behavior which led to the rapid decrease in influence of the country on the world stage. In addition, in 2014...

1 . Cousteau said that the Antarctic is an important area on our planet which contains the largest amount of ice on Earth. Ice itself creates/makes a balance between the cold ocean water and the warm tropic water by letting the cold ocean water cool the warmer one and, thus, preventing the temperature from either going up or down. But nowadays, it's getting harder to find this naturally created equilibrium because of the human's factor. [ "Captain Cousteau," Audubon (May 1990):17.] 2.The twentieth was the period in the USA which lots of people symbolize with forbidden usage of alcohol and the increase of crimes committed which police could do nothing at all for a while.  It was also the time that represented the new era of music - jazz which had rapidly become known not only in America, but worldwide as well. Such prominent people as Bix Beiderbecke, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie nowadays are considered to be the real legends and their names refle...

Chinese people tend to forget characters throughout their lives because of technological progress: mobile phones, laptops, Ipads, etc. According to the video , not only can’t older people write down some characters, but also lots of teenagers find it difficult to remember such widely used characters as, for example, a tooth paste, obscene, etc. In my opinion, it’s becoming a national problem in China. Nowadays, there are lots of surveys in China that draw people’s attention to characters and their remembrance. To begin with, such surveys have several goals to achieve: to show the Chinese people how the world has influenced their culture and language and what can be solved or done to prevent such problems to occur in the nearest future. For example, the number of people using laptops and gadgets has increased for the recent fifteen years and that is why the need in handwriting slightly decreases over the years. People would rather text each other in their gadgets than write somethi...

The site I'd like to share with everyone is all about listening but not a simple one. The site specializes in listening to people from different countries, thus, providing a listener with the opportunity to differenciate the accents of some speakers. For example, we can turn on a conversation where one of the interlocutors can be from Sydney and the other one from Edinburgh. So, the site creates a very natural atmosphere where a person becomes completely involved into listening to different accents as if it is happening in real life. We can choose seven options of difficulty depending on the level of a listener. I do recommend everyone to challenge themselves by reaching the last level which is the toughest one. Undoubtedly, regular listening to the audio files which,by the way, are absolutely free to use here will enhance listening skills and familiarize people with lots of accents.

To begin with, I’d like to mention that the diversity of our thoughts depends on what we do or see to enrich our mind. So, personal preferences breed our interest in something and create a variety of topics we’d like to discuss or share. To me, there are three topics I’d like to draw attention to: cyber sport, movies, and social networks. I have chosen cyber sport because I’ve been playing computer games since I was 10. Nowadays, game industry has rapidly developed, and the number of people who are into games has also increased. So,games have played a considerable part in my life as well. On the one hand, to me, they are both enjoyment and relaxation, and, on the other hand, they helped me to get rid of some stress moments. The next thing I’d like to talk about is movies. I have a friend who is keen on movies,especially on drama films. As a result, I caught this "drama infection" from him. Thrillers and horrors are the genres I hate mostly because none of them will...
