My Room
We live in a three-room flat. One of the rooms is mine.
My room isn't very large but it is light and cosy. Its walls are light-green. There is a window and a balcony in my room. To the right of the window there is a desk where I do my homework. On the desk there is a handy lamp and my laptop. Above the desk there are two bookshelves where I keep my textbooks. Under the shelves on the wall there is a map of the world. I put the map there last year in order to study for a map quiz. On the opposite wall there is a large poster featuring Marvel's Avengers.
I sleep on my bed which is next to the desk. The bed is covered with a colourful blanket. To the left of the balcony door there is a comfortable armchair. I like to sit in it when reading books or playing games on my phone. There is a sliding door wardrobe in the corner of the room.
The floor of my room is covered with a neutral-coloured carpet.
I like my room very much.
Моя комната
Мы живем в трехкомнатной квартире. Одна из комнат моя.
Моя комната не очень большая, но она светлая и уютная. Стены в ней светло-зеленые. В комнате есть окно и балкон. Справа от окна стоит стол, где я делаю домашнее задание. На столе удобная лампа и мой ноутбук. Над столом две книжные полки, где я храню свои учебники. Под полками на стене висит карта мира. Я повесил(а) карту в году, чтобы готовиться к викторине. На противоположной стене висит большой плакат с изображением Мстителей Марвел.
Я сплю на кровати, которая стоит рядом со столом. Кровать покрыта разноцветным одеялом. Слева от балконной двери стоит удобное кресло. Мне нравится сидеть в нем, когда я читаю книги или играю в игры на своем телефоне. В углу комнаты есть шкаф-купе.
Пол комнаты покрыт ковром нейтральных цветов.
Мне очень нравится моя комната.
Natural disasters such as flood, fire, tornado, earthquake, tsunamis are becoming more and more frequent on our planet. In short description a natural disaster is a result of a natural hazard, which has a negative effect on human beings. These geologic processes can lead to serious consequences such as loss of life, property damage, economic problems. Certain areas are more exposed to natural disasters. For example, most of New Zealand’s coastline is exposed to tsunami hazard, while the Far East region is exposed to floods. Being aware of possible dangers, people should be prepared to protect themselves, their families and communities. Two important preparation steps are the developing of emergency plan and assembling a supply kit. However, all the known disasters have unique nature and should be approached separately. Some of the common natural hazards are as follows: earthquake, flood, drought, heat wave, hurricane, volcanic eruption, hailstorm, tornado, tsunami, landslide, wildfire, blizzard. I’d like to tell you a bit more about floods, hurricane and earthquakes. A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land. In severe cases it can result in human and animal deaths. Very often the crops are destroyed, which brings famine. A hurricane is a severe tropical cyclone or storm that often occurs in certain parts of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. This destructive hazard can lead to changes in weather and economy. It can also result in heavy rains, thunderstorm, flood or even tornado. An earthquake is the result of a sudden collision among the tectonic plates of the Earth. Such collision leads to massive and occasionally deathly vibrations. However, learning about these specific threats and the measures, which should be taken, can save many lives.
