Travelling is very popular nowadays. A lot of people travel to different countries if they have such opportunity. Travelling allows you to get interesting experience, learn about people’s life in other countries and continents. I think it is very interesting to discover new things, new places and different ways of life. While on travel, you meet new people, try different meals; see world famous places with your own eyes.
These are many ways of traveling — by train, by plain, by ship, on foot. If you want to visit a far country, you’ll definitely choose a flight. If your aim is to see many countries for a short time, you’ll choose travelling by bus or by car. If you want to be closer to nature, you may choose a trip on foot.
Lots of people nowadays live in big cities. So it’s natural that they want to have a holiday by the sea or in the mountains with nothing to do but relaxing. There is other sort of travellers. They want to visit as many countries as possible. So after exploring Europe and North America they go to exotic countries.
People who travel a lot, are very interesting, they always have a good story to tell. Thanks to them you can learn many things which you didn’t know before. They motivate to see something new, to explore the world, which is so easy to do nowadays. Any kind of travel helps you to understand many things that you would never see or learn at home.
As English people say — A picture is worth a thousand words. And I totally agree with them.
На английском языке Перевод на русский язык Spring Holidays Весенние каникулы We all look forward for school holidays during the academic year. There are four major school breaks, in winter, spring, summer and autumn. The longest holidays are in summer, as they last for three months. Winter holidays last for almost two weeks. Spring and autumn holidays last for only a week. It’s not a long term, but I always enjoy my holidays and try to spend them cheerfully. These spring holidays were full of positive emotions. At first, my parents wanted to travel somewhere hot and to take me with them, but then they changed their mind. My uncle, who lives in Novokuznetsk, invited us to his place and my parents gladly agreed. It was a long way from Moscow, but after all we didn’t regret. To save time, my dad offered to go there by plane. The flight was about four hours. The same day we arrived my uncle showed us around. I should say that the city is rather beautiful. We saw the Spaso-Preobrazhensky Cathedral and Suvorov monument. When we came back, my uncle’s wife, aunt Zoya, has prepared delicious dinner for us, consisting of rice pilaf. For the dessert we had some sweet pies with tea. Spending time in Novokuznetsk, I learnt that many prominent people have lived and worked in this city. For example, a famous poet Bardin, a Siberian explorer Spassky, a singer and actress Elena Kamburova, a Soviet football player Zinchenko. I was happy to hear that Novokuznetsk has its own hockey team and one of the best rugby leagues in Russia. I wish we had more time to stay there, at least one more week, but soon we had to go back home. My spring holidays were over and on Monday the school started. Мы все с нетерпением ждем школьных каникул в течение учебного года. Существуют четыре основных вида школьных каникул: зимние, весенние, летние и осенние. Самые длительные каникулы приходятся на летнее время и длятся три месяца. Зимние каникулы длятся почти две недели. Весной и осенью каникулы длятся всего неделю. Это не долгий срок, но я всегда наслаждаюсь своими каникулами и пытаюсь провести их весело. Эти весенние каникулы были полны положительных эмоций. Сначала мои родители хотели поехать в теплые края и взять меня с собой, но потом передумали. Мой дядя, который живет в Новокузнецке, пригласил нас к себе, и родители с удовольствием согласились. Это далеко от Москвы, но в итоге мы не Чтобы сэкономить время, папа предложил добраться туда на самолете. Полет длился около четырех часов. В тот же день, как мы прибыли, мой дядя показал нам местные достопримечательности. Должен признать, что город довольно красивый. Мы видели Преображенский собор и памятник Суворову. Когда мы вернулись, жена моего дяди, тетя Зоя, приготовила для нас вкусный ужин, состоящий из рисового плова. На десерт были сладкие пироги с чаем. Проводя время в Новокузнецке, я узнал, что многие выдающиеся люди жили и работали в этом городе. Например, известный поэт Бардин, исследователь Сибири певица и актриса Елена Камбурова, советский футболист Зинченко. Я обрадовался, узнав, что в Новокузнецке есть своя команда по хоккею и одна из лучших регби лиг в России. Жаль, что мы не могли остаться там подольше, по крайней мере, еще на одну неделю, ведь вскоре нам пришлось вернуться домой. Мои весенние каникулы закончились, а с понедельника началась школа
