ВОПРОС ДЛЯ ОБСУЖДЕНИЯ
Type or copy and paste your paragraph here.
The sea has always attracted mankind as one of the powers of nature.That's why sea tours are very popular among people.Now I am going to tell you about my summer holidays I spent in Crimea.This summer my father said we can go to the Black sea.I could not believe my ears.My parents had been planning for it so long,but I didn't know about it.It was a splendid time.We lived in a good hotel which was situated near park.The weather was changeable,sometimes there were some clouds in the sky,and even it had been raining for 2 hours before I got to the hotel.During my rest in Crimea,I visited a lot of places of interest,including a very old fortress which was built many centures ago.I had an opportunity to buy some pictures which were painted by local artists.I believe,that next year I will visit this wonderful place once more,because I really liked my rest there.
Cousera week 4
I have had a dream since I was a child. I wanted to be interpreter. That`s why I applied to university. Of course, I thought that it would be impeccable to study on my favourite department. However, it was just my dreams. It turned out, that studing at the university isn't so easy and humdrum. I have a lot of homework. Sometimes I waste eight or even ten hours for preparing my homework. I don't have enough time for sleeping and I have already understood why people say that students are always sleepy. But it's not the biggest problem, which I have. Teachers always appreciate just tip top academic ability and only the best students can get pechy keen marks. Moreover, we have class rank, which show how many students will get a student grant. That's why, I have to get better grades then my rivals. And the main problem, which I want to solve, is connected with English. Why? Because, I had bad marks in the last term and now I need to get the highest grades to get a student grant. To tell the truth, nitty-gritty for me is education and I want to be impeccable interpreter. That's why, I am trying to do all my homework and I waste all my free time for some interesting exercises and stories in English and, of course, for Cousera. I hope that a student grant will have been given me by the end of this term.

Once I took part in the exhibition. I had been waiting for 2 months before that exhibition. I took some beautiful photos and wanted to show them to other people. My friend-photographer Kate helped me. She had been working as a photographer since she entered university.
I had dreamed about this event before Kate invited me. So I was really happy. I had chosen and edited my very best photos before transferring them to the gallery. We met with Kate and decided how best to place my works. We had been doing it for more than three hours. But in the end, everything was perfect.
Opening of the exhibition took place in a couple of weeks. Everyone was delighted with my work and one journalist even wrote an article about it. The exhibition had been lasting for more than 5 hours and more and more people came there. Before it was over, a very elegant woman had approached me and suggested to buy all my photos. It was a real success!

Week 3
The most important thing you have learned in life
The modern world is full of problems:war,global warming,homelessness,hunger,drug abuse...The list goes on and on.But what about the human cruelty?Nowadays people become more and more ruthless and heartless.I'd like to tell you a few words about Nick Vujicic,who was born without legs and hands.His chidhood was difficult.Of course,he could have hurt himself because it was difficult to move around,that's why he should have been more careful.He must have suffered from the ridicules of his contemporaries.He was laughed at.So,his parents had to educate Nick at home.He must have been a very clever boy,because he adapted not only to move independently,but he even tried to write with his atrophied limb.His poems were read by his parents and they really liked them.Later he began to write books,and they were sold like pancakes.The matter is that he tried to inspire people.Nick is against cruelty.He is a very rich man now.He could have spent all money on himself,but he decided not to.Many poor and bereaved people are suported by Nick.The books are published by the writer every year.And even the letters are sent to Nick by despairing people.He could have passed the tests of fate and was able to teach us to deal with problems.Thanks to Nick I realized that the most important thing is to help everyone in difficult situations in spite of your drawbacks.

Jigger Girl or My Best Memory
The childhood is the most exciting period in my life . When I was a child, I spent much time at the village where my grandparents have been living for 20 years. Many of my fond memories are connected with my past-time there. The story which I am going to tell you was named " Professional jigger girl " by my relatives. My friends have heard this story several times.
It was the time when the first apples start to appear on the tree. The apple-tree at our garden have not been even blossoming for 5 years. But the trees at neighbours' garden were thickly hung with fruits . The apples were beckoning us to taste them. We decided to "visit" their garden in order to " borrow" some apples. We had been waiting for the right moment for 15 minutes before we dared to commit that mini-crime. I am sure that you have no idea what will happen next. While my grandmother was picking apples , I heard a distant murmur of voices. It seemed to me that it must have been produced by our neighbours. "Grandmother! Skiddoo! The neighbours are coming!", Ι warned my "bonnet" of the danger. It was so loud! And as soon as I screamed , the dogs started to bark. Fortunately, we had managed to escape by the time the neighbour opened the door. What a professional jigger girl!
P.S. I have already posted all my 4 assignments. This time they are very interesting. Read and enjoy!
