Topic: My Family And I(appearance,
character)
Let me introduce myself. I am …
I was born in Zaporozhye . It is in the south-east of Ukraine. I have been
living in this town since my childhood. Now I am going to tell you about my
family and about myself. We are a family of_____
My father is_______ He works
as a__________ He is neither young nor old. My father is a handsome man. He is
clever and a very sociable person. My mother is __________She works as a __________My
mother is pretty and she is always elegant and smart. My brother\sister is… As
for me, I am a good-looking child with fair hair and _______eyes.
When I was five years old I was a cute baby with fair curly hair. I had
rosy cheeks and red lips. I could draw pictures and ride a bicycle, but I
couldn’t read well and play basketball. My Mum says that when I was five I was
rather a naughty child.
We are a friendly family. It
is a custom in my family to discuss things during meals. We discuss different
topics. We are getting on all right.
The English proverb
says “Tastes differ”. I think it’s
true because different people have different interests. Many people are fond
of reading, some of them are fond of sports or hiking and camping but as for
me I like travelling.
For some people that would be great to
spend their free time in a romantic castle with excellent food and drink or
have a relaxing break in one of the luxurious holiday centers. Others are
fond of funfairs or amazing theme parks like Disneyland or Dinosaur Park.
As for me I enjoy spending my holidays
with my family at the seaside. I’m fond of playing on the water slides, going
swimming, taking some pictures or just admiring the sea.
Next summer we are going to spend our
holidays by the river. We are going to go fishing, sleep in our tent, have
dinner by a camp fire, have picnics by the river every day. I’m sure it’s
going to be so much fun.

Sport
6th form
Sport is very important in our life. People all over
the world are fond of sports and games. Sport and physical exercises help us
keep fit, be healthy and strong. Every child likes to play games. When you are
faster and stronger than your friend – you can win. So sport helps us get a
great sense of achievement.
There are summer and winter
kinds of sports. The most popular winter sports are skating, skiing and hockey.
It’s so nice to go to the skating rink with your friends. The most popular
summer sports are running, swimming, boating and cycling. Some people enjoy
going fishing, waterskiing, scuba diving, kayaking or snorkeling. I can’t help
saying that football is the most popular game in the world. It is played on
every continent, and it has millions of fans.
As for me, I spend most of my
spare time rollerblading, Ireally enjoy it. It helps me to feel happy, full of
energy and make new friends.
So, as the old Latin proverb
says, “A sound mind in a sound body”.
Sport is very important for everybody and it plays a great role in our life.
English - speaking Countries
and Their Traditions.
Speaking about traditions of
English-speaking countries I can’t help saying about winter holidays and their
celebrations. In winter people celebrate such holidays as New Year, Christmas,
St. Valentine’s Day. As for me, my favourite winter holiday is Christmas and
I’d like to tell you some words about it.
In many countries people
celebrate this holiday on 25th December. They buy presents and
Christmas cards for their nearest and dearest. Also people decorate Christmas
tree with coloured lights and balls. On Christmas Eve all family members sit
around a big table and have traditional Christmas dishes: roast turkey and
Christmas pudding. They sing carols, dance and have a lot of fun.
Children like Christmas, as
no one do. They believe that Santa Claus rides over the sky on his sleigh with
a big bag of presents. He gets into children’s homes through the chimneys and
puts the presents into the stockings, they put on the fireplaces. So in the
morning, when children get presents, they become very happy.
