Выставки в области сельского хозяйства, промышленности, искусств, садоводства и ремесел — все это о фестивале клубнике во Флориде, где из года в года разворачиваются клубничные поля площадью не меньше восьми тысяч акров. Ну а как иначе — только в округе Хиллсборо насчитывается 2800 ферм. Возвращаясь к фестивалю, стоит отметить, что он не обходится без красочного парада, вручения награды Человеку года и конкурса красоты.
Фестиваль проводится во Флориде с 1930-го года. В последние годы он неизменно привлекает не меньше полумиллиона посетителей. Кроме того, по итогам ежегодного голосования, его регулярно причисляют к 50-ти лучших ярмаркам Америки
I like to spend my free time watching interesting films. My favourite genre is horror as it is very exciting and nerve raking. Some people don't understand the pleasure of watching horror movies, it seems as they are just afraid of them. To my mind, such films help us to face all existed hidden and terrible fears.
This genre provides us the wide range of different dangerous situations such as vampirism, epidemic flu, zombi, great war, random and mysterious deaths and many others. We can get to know all the good and bad sides of people judging by their behavior in these extreme situations, how they act and what values they have. The famous quote says "a friend in need is a friend indeed". I think it is totally true because only after facing the problems we will be able to know whether we have a devoted friend or not, whether we can be a real friend by ourselves or not. Despite of the unreal elements in the film also the social, terror, political, economic problems are risen.
In conclusion I want to say that people shouldn't avoid horror films as they reveal the mirror image of our society.
