My school.

        I study in gymnasium number five. It is situated in the centre of the town in Tseretely street. Moreover it is the oldest school in our town. It was founded in 1880 as a man’s classical gymnasium. In 1923 it was reorganized to school number five. Now it’s called Gymnasium number five after Lunacharsky.

        In my opinion, our school is known for its glorious traditions and high quality of education.Many prominent people and public figures finished our school. Among them Vakhtangov, Tsagolov, Gergiev and others.

       Of course, there are different classes which are held in well-equipped rooms. There is also a big gym where we have Physical Education lessons and sports competitions.Football competitions between different forms are usually held on the sports ground. There is all necessary sports equipment in the gym.

        In addition, our school is special with the fact that it is with the English bias. We begin learning English in the second form. We have English from 3 to 6 lessons a week and we are also taught Business English. All English rooms have computers, Tvsets, interactive boards. We usually hold English parties devoted to different events in our assembly hall. I like my school.

      To sum up, I’m totally convinced that school number five is the best.

Travelling.

    In my opinion, millions of people all over the world spend their holidays travelling. They travel to see other countries and continents, modern cities and the ruins of ancient towns. Moreover it is always interesting to discover new things, different ways of life, to meet different people, to try different food. People travel either for pleasure or on business.

     Of course, travelling has been so popular since the beginning of the 20^th century because a lot of new means of transport appeared: trains, planes, buses. In addition distances between countries are becoming shorter due to modern transport.

      As for me, the best means of transport is a modern train which is very comfortable. Besides you can enjoy a splendid view of the countryside. And if you are hungry, you can have meals in the dining-car.

      While travelling people like to go sightseeing and take pictures, relax on the beach or swim in the sea, visit museums and galleries.

      To sum up, I am totally convinced that travelling is the best way to spend holidays.
