A FEW WORDS ABOUT MY INSTITUTE AND MY STUDIES

Our Institute is very large and very old. There are seven floors in the building of our Institute. Our classroom is on the first floor. It is just near the dean’s office. The dining-hall is on the same floor too.

There are a lot of classrooms and lecture-halls in our Institute. The classrooms are small. The lecture-halls are large. There is much light and air in them because the windows are large and the ceiling is high.

In front of the building of our Institute there is a large garden. In the middle of it there is a monument to the great Russian scientist Lomonosov. There are a great many beautiful flowers in the garden and around the monument. Behind the garden there is a sports ground. There are no students there except one group of students playing volley-ball. They are having a class in physical culture.

The students are not in the garden now, because they are having classes. They are listening to lectures or working in the workshops, but there are a few students in the reading-room just now.

The reading-room and the library in our Institute are on the third floor. They are big halls full of light and air. There are some nice flowers on the window sills. On the walls there is a map and some portraits of great writers and scientists. There are also a few nice pictures there. They are pictures by our young modern artists.

At the walls there are a lot of bookcases full of Russian and foreign books. There are also a great number of various newspapers and magazines on the shelves and on the desks.

Look at the picture of our reading-room. There are a few students there. Two boys and a girl sitting at the window are final-year students. They are working at their graduation projects. They are drawing. Some of the second-year students sitting in the corner of the hall are looking through the English magazine “Design”. Those students are studying the English language, that’s why they are speaking English just now.

One of the girls is going out of the hall. The other girl is coming in. There are also a few students standing at the librarian’s table. The librarians are helping them to choose the necessary books for their studies. One of the librarians is taking a book from the shelf. The other is showing a magazine to the student. He is looking it through. One of the girls is putting the book into her bag. She is talking to the librarian:

• Thank you for the book.

• Not at all.

• Good-bye.

• See you soon again.

Some other students sitting near the windows are preparing their homework; they are writing and reading. They are doing their exercises.

Four boys standing around the table in the middle of the hall are first-year students. They are making a poster for the coming holidays. They are drawing and painting. The poster reads: “Long Live Peace!”
