Такие природные катастрофы, как наводнение, пожар, торнадо, землетрясение, цунами все чаще встречаются на нашей планете. Вкратце, природная катастрофа – это результат стихийного бедствия, которое оказывает негативное влияние на человека. Эти геологические процессы могут привести к серьезным последствиям, например, смерти, материальному ущербу, экономическим проблемам. Некоторые районы в большей степени подвержены стихийным бедствиям. Например, почти вся береговая линия Новой Зеландии подвержена цунами, в то время как Дальний Восток подвержен наводнениям. Зная о возможных опасностях, люди должны быть готовы защитить себя, свои семьи и общины. Два важных шага, которые нужно предпринять, это составить чрезвычайный план и собрать набор первой Тем не менее, все известные стихийные бедствия носят уникальный характер, поэтому их следует рассматривать по отдельности. К некоторым распространенным стихийным бедствиям относятся землетрясение, наводнение, засуха, жара, ураганы, извержения вулкана, град, торнадо, цунами, оползни, пожары, снежная буря. Я хотел бы рассказать вам немного подробнее о наводнениях, ураганах и землетрясениях. Наводнение – это затопление территории земли водой. В тяжелых случаях оно приводит к гибели людей и животных. Зачастую пропадает урожай, что приводит к голоду. Ураган – тяжелый тропический циклон или шторм, который часто встречается в определенных частях Атлантического и Тихого океанов. Его разрушительная сила может приводить к изменениям в погоде и экономике. Также, он может привести к проливным дождям, грозам, наводнению или даже к торнадо. Землетрясение является результатом внезапного столкновения тектонических плит Земли. Такое столкновение приводит к массовым колебаниям земли, иногда со смертельным исходом. Однако, зная конкретные угрозы и меры, которые нужно предпринять, можно жизнь многим людям.Natural Disasters(Природные катастрофы) 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. ПЕРЕВОД:
Beginning to tell you about my favourite newspaper, firstly I would like to stress that the mass media and especially press play very important role in our lives.Needless to say that the mass media have done and continue doing much to excite and to maintain our interest in every aspect of the life in Russia. But I want to draw your attention to the work of press and its role in the life of society.The press is one of those few means of getting information, which exists in almost all parts of the world. Reading different newspapers and magazines, we learn about recent political, economical and cultural events in Russia and abroad, about international relations and progressive views, about ordinary and extraordinary things and cases. That is why I think it necessary that people should read newspapers and magazines.As for me, my favourite newspaper is “Moskovskiy Komsomolets” (“MK”, in brief). I am sure you have heard about this newspaper and have had a chance to read it. I suppose, it gives us a great amount of information and quickly and vividly reflects current and important events on its pages.The principal vital and actual problems are always discussed by the reporters of “Moskovskiy Komsomolets” and this feature attracts me much. On the pages of “MK” we also can find broad daylights of the political life of the country – this is another good tradition and positive particularity which is liked by its readers.For all items and saturation coverage of occasions this newspaper offers a lot of columns and headings with brief and interesting headlines.It goes without saying that the most exciting reports and latest news are always published on the first page of “MK” so that the readers could familiarize with them at once. To my mind, it’s very convenient!Recently a great amount of advertisements have appeared on the news pages and on the pages of “MK” too. I consider this is wrong: advertisements occupy the space which could be used for news or reviews and must be published only as special separate periodicals. They reduce the quality of the newspaper as a source of information and affect its prestige, and this point should be taken into account.On the whole my favourite newspaper meets my requirements and I hope that it will be printed in future.
