Eating Habits Of My FamilyПища моей семьиThe food you eat may affect your general condition and mood. It can even affect the risk for certain diseases. My name is Lara and I’m fourteen years old. I would like to tell you about the eating habits of my family. We normally try to eat only healthy food however, it’s not always possible. Speaking about the place, where we eat, I should mention that my mum thinks the background for meal is very important and we agree with her. We are trying to eat at home and we avoid ordering take-away food. My mum is a good cook, so we eat the home-made dishes only. Sometimes on Friday evenings for dinner we go to a restaurant. We normally pick a quiet place with Italian food on the menu. That’s because everyone in our family loves pizza, pasta and risotto. There are weekends when together with family and friends we go on a picnic. That’s where we break the rules of healthy eating. My dad always makes a barbecue there. As you know grilled meat is not very healthy. There are days when we go fishing. In that case he cooks the freshly caught fish. On such days I wish I had been a vegetarian. Anyway, when we are at home, we eat healthy. Our breakfast consists of either oatmeal or a plateful of cereal. Sometimes my mum makes roasted toasts and an omelette. We drink either orange juice or green tea. We try to avoid black coffee as it’s not very healthy. During the day we eat lots of fruit and vegetables. My mum bakes delicious cakes, but she tries to reduce the amount of sugar. So, her baking is never too sweet. To sum up, I’d like to mention that there are three main components of health lifestyle: healthy eating, physical exercise and leisure activities. Thus, a healthy diet can be good for your overall health.Пища, которую вы едите, может влиять на общее состояние и настроение. Она даже может влиять на риск развития некоторых заболеваний. Меня зовут Лара и мне четырнадцать лет. Я хотела бы рассказать вам о пище моей семьи. Мы обычно стараемся есть только здоровую еду, однако, не всегда так получается. Говоря о месте, где мы едим, я должна отметить, что моя мама фон важной частью приема пищи, и мы с ней согласны. Мы стараемся всегда есть дома и стараемся не заказывать продуктов на вынос. Моя мама хорошо готовит, так что мы едим только домашние блюда. Иногда в вечер пятницы на ужин мы ходим в ресторан. Мы обычно выбираем тихое место с итальянским меню. Это потому что все в нашей семье любят пиццу, пасту и ризотто. Бывают выходные дни, когда вместе с семьей и друзьями мы устраиваем пикник. Вот, где мы нарушаем правила здорового питания. Мой папа всегда там жарит шашлык. А, как известно, жареное мясо не очень полезно. Бывают дни, когда мы ходим на рыбалку. Тогда он готовит свежевыловленную рыбу. В такие дни я хочу стать вегетарианцем. В любом случае, когда мы дома, мы едим здоровую пищу. Наш завтрак состоит либо из овсяных хлопьев, либо из тарелки каши. Иногда моя мама делает тосты и яичницу. Мы пьем либо апельсиновый сок, либо зеленый чай. Мы стараемся не употреблять черный кофе, так как это не полезно. В течение дня мы едим много фруктов и овощей. Моя мама печет вкусные торты, но она старается урезать количество сахара. Таким образом, ее кондитерские изделия никогда не бывают слишком сладкими. Подводя итог, я хотела бы сказать, что у здорового образа жизни есть три основные составляющие: здоровое питание, физические упражнения и досуг. Таким образом, здоровое питание может хорошо сказаться на вашем здоровье в целом.

Learning foreign languages is important nowadays. I think that any educated person must learn foreign languages. But I prefer English to other foreign languages. Why? English is becoming a global language. A half of billion people in the world use English at home or work. English is the language which is known for the most part of our fine, magnificent and surprising world. English is so widespread that it has become the standard language for all kinds of international communication.

A lot of problems of the 21st century, such as the problems of war and peace, ecology, can not be solved without speaking the same language.

The English language is now the first language of about 350 million people, the native language of 12 nations and the official language of more than 33 nations. It means that one of seven people in the world speaks English.

English is also the international language of businesspeople, pilots and air traffic controllers, sportsmen, scientists and students. If you want to be a stewardess, a pilot or an air control officer you have to learn English, the language of international communication. Every year thousands of people from Russia go to different countries as tourists or to work. They can’t go without knowing the language of the country they are going to. A modern engineer or even a worker cannot work with an imported instrument or a machine if he is not able to read the instruction how to do that.

Some people learn English because they need it in their work; others to travel aboard and for lots of people learning English is just a hobby.

I have been learning English since the age of 11. I like learning English very much. But I like and know well my native language, Russian. The great German poet Goethe once said: “He, who knows no foreign language, does not know his own one.” I agree with him. The knowledge of English helps me to learn Russian.

The knowledge of English is a great power. I need to know English. I must appreciate and embrace this knowledge as the key to achievement of my dream. I hope my progress in English will be very good.
Вроде так!:-)
