Перевод:
Мы просыпаемся весёлыми.Идём умываться , чистить зубы.Потом мы убираемся в квартире.Готовим салаты.Накрываем большой стол.Дома у нас все блестит , сияет.Мы садимся за стол и с нетерпением ждём , наступления нового года.И вот он наступает , мыочень радуемся.Позжемы выходим на улицу запускать салют, зажигать фейрверки.
Anna's holiday was great last summer. She stayed in a college in England for two weeks. She had classes in the mornings and in the afternoons she did some sports like swimming or tennis. In the evenings she often went dancing or watched films with her new friends. At weekends they drove to some interesting places. Once they visited Marwell Zoo where they saw some beautiful animals. Anna did not like the food at the college but that was not a problem. She met a lot of people and learnt some English. All the students in her class were sorry to go home. They all promised to come back next summer.
