15. You participated in an international sports competition. Tell your friends about the events you took part in. Describe your impressions and the atmosphere in which the events took place.

Sport is probably as old as the humanity itself. All over the world people of different ages are very fond of sports and games. Firstly, sport helps people to become strong and to develop physically. Secondly, it makes them more organized and better disciplined in their daily activities. Also sport keeps your mind healthy. Sport helps people to keep in good health.

In October 2000, in Poland was organized a traditional sports event, "Dad, Mom and I are a sporty family". The competition was attended by pupils of the 1st class and their parents. Students of 11th class were active in the event, they showed care for all of first class pupils. The competition was well organized and held in a fun and friendly atmosphere. This is the first competition in which 1st grade students took part in school. And this experience brought a lot of happy moments, taught them to celebrate victory and do not worry about bad results. And also parents of first graders’ showed the willingness to win and encouraged their young teammates. The winner was 1 "M". Among family teams 1st place went to Bogdan Nomofilov’s family. He was from Russia, the second place won the team from Poland, the third place was shared by two family teams from Ukraine. Each participant received the gifts, and family teams awarded prizes, medals and certificates.

 Wonderful music, colorful dresses and astonishing performance created an amazing atmosphere.

16. The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”

Some people prefer to travel abroad; others say that there is much to be seen in our own country.  Have you ever noticed how beautiful the world is? There are so many places of interest, historical monuments and unknown areas that people can explore our planet endlessly. Some people tell that it is much more interesting to travel around the world; others believe that there is much to be seen in their own country. Both of these opinions make sense. I believe, therefore, that travelling abroad has more advantages. To start with, when you visit some foreign country, you learn its traditions and customs. You have a great chance to know more about the culture in this place. Travel broadens our perspectives, stretches our thinking, opens our eyes to how others live, and educates us in a classroom without walls and without limits.if you just visit nearby communities with the exact same culture, you’re going to read the same page again that you have previously been reading.

Nowadays globalization plays a great role in our life, and you can be a part of it by traveling abroad and meeting people from all over the world. Another good point in favour of travelling abroad is ability to improve your language skills. Learning a foreign language is always challenging without practise. When you are in a trip abroad, you meet native speakers who can help you to resolve the difficulties. However, some people argue that going abroad is expensive and exhausting. In particular, dealing with travel agencies, required papers and documents, long way to the destination – all these make them irritated. To conclude, the way I see it, travelling abroad is the best way to learn new things, discover new places and develop as a person. It is my belief that the quote iencourages us to learn more about each-other, that we may better understand the whole of the book which is the world. The book would open your eyes to people and places you never knew existed. It would open your mind to new ideas, and would open your heart to what lies beyond your own horizon. After all, as the say, ‘’ The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”
