London Great Britain
20th of September
Dear Lena,
I am Martin Oldfield. I'm Jim's friend. I live in London.
Last summer I visited Russia. It was really great! I was
in St Petersburg. It's such a beautiful and interesting
city. I spent two weeks there. The weather was fine.
We went sightseeing. We travelled on a comfortable
bus round the city. But best of all I enjoyed the palaces
which are situated near St Peter. We were in Pavlovsk,
Pushkin and Peterhof.
There is the greatest and the most beautiful palace
in Peterhof. It was amazing to see so many fountains
there. The guide told us a lot of stories and legends
about them. It was interesting to listen to him. After
the trip we returned to the city by ship. It was fantastic!
For a minute I imagined myself as a seaman!

верим ли мы в приметы? Вопрос сложный, и чтобы решить его, прибегнем к статистике. Проанализировав ответы на форумах на вопрос «Верите Вы в приметы?», я подсчитала, что примерно 4 человека из 10 верят, 4 – нет, и 2 – затрудняются с ответом принять во внимание, что было подсчитано всего около 100 ответов на 4 различных форумах. Давайте теперь разберемся – что такое примета и суеверие, для этого прибегнем к толковому словарю Ожегова: «СУЕВЕРИЕ – вера во что-нибудь сверхъестественное, таинственное, в предзнаменования, в приметы.
