Parents happier after their children leave home Role Play I think that family trips are the best thing about parenthood. It is very important to spend free time with family. During this trips we learn more about each other, we can visit various interesting and beautiful places and take a lot of photos together near them. Also, we can have fun with our time. Such trips help family members to understand each ohter better and there are unforgettable moments in our lives. Family dinner don`t play very important role in parenthood. Some people say that during dinner thay talk to their family and talk about their day. But I think we can do it another time and dinner is for eating. Family photos shows only a certain moment in our lives. There are only moments and they will not replace our relatives who are not with us. Many people and families live without children and they don`t consider them an important part of their lives. They have a lot of friends and this communication is enough for them. They can devote more time to themselves and their careers.

Big rise in rates of depression amoung students Role Play In my opinion, health is the biggest worry. Firstly, nowadays chemicals are very expensive and there are a lot of people who don`t have money to buy them, so being healthy is important for them. Secondly, without health I can`t normal study, work and doing what I want. My life will be boring, I won`t have friends because they will not want to communicate with a sick person and I will feel loneliness. We can say that money play very important role in our life and I agree with it. Money can solve different kinds of problem and they give us the opportunity to live the way we want. Though, there are a lot of things which money can`t buy. For example, money can buy book, but not knowledge;money can buy position, but not respect; money can buy clock, but not time and so on. Crime isn`t consider a big problem in countries with strict laws. People don`t want to have misunderstanding with the police and pay big fines, so they try to do anything wrong. For many people global warming isn`t a bad thing. Climate can change and it is a normal process.

Children worrying about their body image Role Play We need to think about children, we need to learn to understand children`s problems and try to solve them. Advertising industry provokes these problems. Firstly, this advertisement is where we wouldn`t like to see it. We see in when we walk around the city, when we watch TV and when we surf the Internet. Secondly, advertisers want to make their ads perfect. They show things that don`t exist in reality or there are very few of them. Very often we can see a person with perfect body on the cover of a magazine or postcard and it doesn`t have any good consequences. It makes us think about our bodies, that we are not so perfect and especially it has a negative effect on children. They begin to worry about their appearance. Advertisers probably don`t understand how big a problem is it, although it is necessary to talk about it and look for other ways to interest a person in advertising.

Children worrying about their body image Speaking-Body Worries The most I`m wirring about my teeth. People say that the first thing we see in a person is her smile. Therefore, it is very important for me to have beautiful, white teeth. Also nowadays, a visit to the dentist isn`t cheap, so having healthy teeth is very important. My nose is also important for me. When people will see my crooked nose they won`t like it. Moreover, such a nose won`t please me. Every part of my face is important and it shood be beautiful. As for me, people don`t need to worry about their body shape, what is more important is what kind of person you are and most people think so. If you are cheerful and polite person, it doesn`t matter if you are thin or overweight. Although, to my mind, you needto think about your body shape, because overweight people have a lot of health problem. I don`t worry about my skin because nowadays there is no such problem as discrimination and it don`t matter what colour your skin is. Also, I don`t have acne on my skin, so I don`t worry about my skin.

Nicer people are poorer, says study Role Play I think that loyalty is the most important part of someone`s personality. Loyalty can be directed to oneself or to other. If we talk about loyalty to oneself, we talk about the ability to do what we like and stick to our positions and ideas, regardless of what other people think or say. If we talk about loyalty to other, we talk about the ability to support each other, help each other and appreciate their achevements. I want to say thhat it is very important character trait. Kindness is positive character trait, but nowadays it is very difficult to be kind. People can just take advantage of your kindness. It is difficult for such people to live in such evil world. Pride is a negative character trait. Proud people never help others, they are selfish and never be the first to talk to other people. Such people are not liked, they have a very high opinion of themselves. Having a sense of humor is a good character trait, but not always. There are people who don`t understand jokes and are offended by them because they take them seriously.

Role Play ( K-pop stars BTS to do military service) As for me, the best music genre is classical. Researchers say that classical music effects our mental and physical health, human emotions and brain functions. If we want to solve different tasks quickly, we need just to listen classical music. I`m sure we will see the difference. Also, we can relax listening such music, it help us to overcome stress and depression. I think it`s the best way to develop intellectually and harmonizes a person`s personality.
Jazz also have a good effect on our brain and mental health. Researchers say that such kind of music have a positive effect to workers who do the same job all day. Listening jazz give them a rhythm of work. To the sounds of jazz, a person simply relaxes and enjoys music.
Rap can be different. Aggressive tracks are perceived by teenagers as a symbol of rebellion, opposition to the environment. Positive rap can to raise the mood, cause a desire to communicate with other people and encourage active actions (in the positive sphere). In general, such kind of music listen people who don`t know who they are and who they want to be.
In my opinion, rock is the most difficult genre for perception. I can`t listen such music. However, rock energize, help us to find straight for life and overcome problems.

My friend doesn’t have any money because everyone, pupils and teachers, borrow from him when he is paid and will probably never pay him back. The pupils range from six to twenty-six, because some who did not get schooling as children are here to make it up. Some pupils walk many miles every morning, rain or shine and across rivers. They cannot do homework because there is no electricity in the villages, and you can’t study easily by the light of a burning log. The girls have to fetch water and cook before they set off for school and when they get back.
As I sit with my friend in his room, people drop in shyly, and everyone begs for books. “Please send us books when you get back to London,” one man says. “They taught us to read but we have no books.” Everybody I met, everyone, begged for books.
Переклад Мій друг не має ніяких грошей, бо учні і вчителі позичають їх в нього, коли він отримує зарплатню і , напевне, ніколи не повернуть йому борг. Вік учнів коливається від 6 до 26 років, бо ті, хто не отримали освіту в дитинстві прийшли сюди, щоб надолужити втрачене. Деякі учні проходять велику відстань кожного ранку, незважаючи на дощ чи спеку, проходячи річки у місцях, де вони не глибокі. Вони не можуть виконувати домашнього завдання, бо у селах нема електрики, а при світлі вогнища навчатися важко. Дівчата повнні принести води і приготувати їжу до того як вони вирушать до школи і після того як повернуться.
Коли я сиджу з моїм другом в його кімнаті, люди заходять сором'язливо і кожен просить книжку. Один чоловік каже:' Будь ласка надішліть нам книги коли ви повернетеся в Лондон. Ми вміємо читати, але ми не маємо книжок.' Усі,кого я зустрічала,просили книжок.
