long time ago there was a town called Hamelin in
Germany. It was a wealthy town, and everyone' ate well. .
But then there was a plague of rats. No one knew where the
rats had come from. They
up and down
every street and in and out of every house. Soon the rats
every scrap of food in the town. No one had
any idea how to get rid of them.
One day a stranger
He said he was a
rat-catcher called the Pied Piper. The people of Hamelin
promised to give him as much gold as he wanted if he could get
rid of the rats.
The Pied Piper walked along the streets. He

Every nation living on Earth has its own history, traditions and, of course, features of the national cuisine. A cuisine is a certain set of cooking traditions passed on from generation to generation. A cuisine is often named after the place where it originated. The choice of ingredients depends on the region or country. For example, the Greeks use lots of tomatoes, olives, lemons and seafood in their dishes because these products are easily found in their country. Today, if you want to taste the food of different countries, it’s not necessary to fly there. The restaurants of various cuisines can be found almost in every city. I live in Yekaterinburg and there are lots of Chinese, Japanese, French, Greek, Italian, Spanish and even Mexican restaurants here. Chinese dishes are mostly made of rice and noodles. The thing that I like about this cuisine is the variety of green and herbal teas. Japanese cuisine is based on fresh seafood, soybeans and white rice. I have already tried several types of rolls and sushi with soy sauce and it was rather delicious. French cuisine is considered to be the most exquisite and refined of all. I have never tried French dishes but I’d love to. They say French cheese, wine and pastries are really good. Greek food is delicious. My favourite dish is the Greek salad with fresh tomatoes, olives, bell peppers and tofu cheese. I also like Italian food. It mainly offers different types of pizzas and pasta. I think, that Italian cuisine somehow reminds the Greek one because both these countries are situated in the Mediterranean. Spanish cuisine offers lots of dishes from seafood and fresh vegetables. A good example of this cuisine is paella. Mexican cuisine uses lots of spices and chili pepper. Famous Mexican dishes are tacos and quesadillas.

Я побывала во многих городах России , но больше всего мне нравится Москва. Этот город столица России . Люди помнят её разной ( деревянной, каменной), но сейчас она очень красивая и яркая. Здесь много дастопремечательностей , разных парков, магазинов и многоэтажных домов. Но больше всего мне нравится Красная площадь. Я надеюсь, что Москва навсегда останется такой!
