Text A About myself
Let me introduce myself. My full name is …. I’m from Ukraine and my home city is Odessa. I’m 18 years old. I’m not married yet and I live with my parents. My family is large and friendly.
This year I entered the Odessa State Environmental University. Now I’m a first-year student. I’m proud of to be a student of our University. I study full time. My future job is dealing with ecology. Nowadays, there is a dangerous threat for environment throughout the world. The air, water, soil pollution and greenhouse effect is the global problem of great importance. I think that my future occupation is very necessary in our every day life. At our University I study a lot of special subjects. But there are some subjects which I’m good at. They are: ecology, economy, physics and foreign languages. Generally, I go to my University six times a week. Every day I have 3 or 4 classes. As a rule, I get to my University by bus. But some of my group mates get there on foot because our hostel is not far from the University. My working day is not easy and I have a lot of work to do after my classes. I try to be a conscientious and efficient student. That’s why I spend much time on preparing for my lectures. Being diligent, I’m never late or cut classes without valid reason. I do my best to be a well-rounded person . I’m interested in economy, politics, history and computers. I’m fond of reading, listening to music and playing computer games. I believe I’m a friendly, frank, inventive and cheerful person.
Besides that, I’m sociable that’s why I have a lot of friends. I like having my close friends for dinner, discussing different interesting points with them or just chatting on my free time.
I’m eager to be a high qualified specialist, useful citizen of our society and do my bit in solving of urgent problems of our independent country.
