So, yesterday I passed the final exam and can do my TOEFL practice.
But despite the fact that I really need to practice, I do not want to do that here. Now I have my LJ and most likely I'll write there.
And here I will continue Russian-language talk about cooking and simple things that matter.

It's stupid, but I want to close that blog too.
Too much strangers here make me feel nervous.
Sorry all

Almost two weeks without posts. Sorry.
I'm a lazy cow)

I need to write something, but I lost all words and thoughts.

Tomorrow I will. Promise.
And only essay topics - according to professor, my speaking skills are very good.

Mind I'm just one person..

About family pets.
I want a dog called Shih Tzu. Badly. Just look at them and you'll understand me. They are so cute!
And small. And funny. My colleague has one like that. I adore her.

Did you know, that British children start to use articles and endings at the age of four?
I feel like four year old now))))

I need to choose topic.

"Study abroad"
You are planning to study abroad. What do you think you will like and dislike about this experience? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

"Lifestyle"
Many people believe that it is very important to make larger amounts of money, while others are satisfied to earn a comfortable living. Analyze each viewpoint and take a stand. Give specific reasons for your position.

"Communication"
Some people like to communicate by e-mail and voice mail. Other people like to communicate by telephone or face-to-face. Which type of communication do you prefer, and why? Be sure to include details and examples to support your opinion.

"Family pets"
Read and think about the following statement: Pets should be treated like family members. Do you agreee or disagree with this statemen? Give reasons to support your opinion.

"An important leader"
Leaders like John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King have made important contributions to the people of the United States. Name another world leader you think is important. Give specific reasons for your choice.

In my opinion Study abroad is too simple, Lifestyle is not interesting, most of my classmates are going to write about communication and I have no idea about world leaders. So where it leads us? Family pets. Yeah. Don't think that it's a funny topic. It's one of the most difficult topics on my list.
So can you help me? Maybe you have some ideas about world leaders or lifestyle. Tell me, please.


PS. I know, my blog isn't as interesting as you thought two weeks ago, but I came back from the depths of laziness, sleep, and bad moods and I plan to write every day and not only on the topics

Ok, essay and cooking.

Advances in transportation and communication like the airplane and the telephone have changed the way that nations interact with each other in a global society. Choose another technological innovation that you think is important. Give specific reasons for your choice.

Technological developments brought uncountable advantages particularly in the branches of communication and transportation between nations and individuals seperated through wide distances. Internet is one of the most important technologic development alongside airplane and telephone.
The internet opened a new world of opportunities and communications. For example, in the way that people assemble in the meetings and conferences. Before the introduction of the internet, it was necessary to fly into another country to conduct business. Now you can meet your business partners in multiple sites and communicate through video or audio conferences.
The electronic mail or simply known as the e-mail also helped in enhancing means of communication over 7 oceans. It made communication quicker as an e-mail is delivered within a minute to the intended receiver. It also made communication easier and cheaper.
Another major contribution of the internet was the introduction of distance learning courses. It gives people an opportunity to study in many universites all over the world without spending time and money going to school and coming back. I'm going to take distance learning course of Antient History and Archeology in the University of Leichester.
In addition, the Internet provides an opportunity for Electronic commerce or e-commerce. For example, the famous site eBay, which is an auction where people from around the world sell and buy goods. This is a very convenient service which I often use if I want to find some rare music record. E-commerce is also a platform for stock trading, buying an airline ticket or paying the telephone bill. Transactions are secure and easy to perform.
In conclusion, I would like to say that , introduction of new technology changes the traditional approaches. Innovation in technology opens a world of new possibilities. It makes processes easier, simpler to the user and provides solutions to various problems and helps in eradicating barriers among nations.

I'm lazy. Lazy-lazy-laaaazy girl.

The 8th of March, huh?
Condratulations, girls!

Independent essay.

Many people have learned a foreign language in their own country; others have learned a foreing language in thr country in which it is spoken. Which is better? Give the advantages of each and support your viewpoint.

Nowadays learning foreign languages is obviously very important. However the question is that we should learn a foreign language in our country or in the native country where it is spoken. Each way of learning has its own advantages.
The most important advantage to learning language in your own country is that you can have your teachers explain unknown words or phrases in your mother tongue, which is especially important at the early stage of learning a foreign language. In addition, there is financial matter. Learning foreign language in your own country is quite a lot cheaper than it would be to travel to the county where the language is spoken. You don't have to spend time and money on traveling and staying at a foreign country.
However, learning a foreign language in the country where it is spoken has incomparable advantages. Only there can you have access to exact pronunciation, proper tone and idioms of natural speech. Listening to exact pronunciation will help you correct yourself and will improve your listening and speaking ability. It is well known that people most quickly learn a foreign language when they are surrounded by people who speak that language. When you live in the native country language you have no choice but use that language in daily life. You also have the opportunity to learn the culture of the country in which you learn language, make friends or get an invitation to work or study in a foreign country.
In conclusion, I prefer learning a foreign language in the native country because it will give me opportunities to practice a lot, to correct my fault easily and naturally. Therefore I think this is the better way of learning a foreign language.

Hello again.

It has recently been announced that a new restaurant may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer.

Another speaking training.
I'll post my independent essay tomorrow.

Outline.
Support
- tired
- not far away
- good service

I love to cook and eat homemade food. I cook almost every evening. But sometimes when I come home after a hard day, I feel so worn out that I need to simply go out and eat delicious food. But I have no such opportunity, because there are no restaurants in my neighborhood except McDonald's. So now I have to stay at home and cook or go downtown to eat in a restaurant.
In addition having a new restaurant next to the house would be very useful if I want to spend an evening with my family or friends without going far from home.
The lack of crowds and fast service are also advantages of the restaurant built in a such a quiet and remote from the city center area, like the one I live in.
That is why I strongly support an idea to built a restaurant in my neighborhood.

Ok, I need your help.

There is a very difficult topic in my list.

How do movies and television influence people's behavior? Use reasons and specific examples to support your answer.

What matters to raters: your ability to respond directly to the question, to take a clear position, proper use of supporting examples, sentence variety. You also must not talk about common things. And use your personal experience.

Sooo, I need an idea. Can you give it to me? You can say it in Russian.

Thank you.

Hi everyone.
I have a lot of work those days and no time to post. I wrote one topic yesterday. Here it is

Question. "When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success". Do you agree or disagree with the quotation above? Use specific reasons and examples to explain your position.

Outline.
Disagree
- chance to prove yourself
- first sight
Conclusion-both

Although some people think that all you need for success is hard work, I strongly disagree that luck has nothing to do with it.
I believe that despite all that hours of hard working you still need a chance to prove yourself and only luck can give you such opportunity. I always rely on luck when I'm going to take an exam or to be interviewed for a new job.
Because when an employer sees you for the first time he does not know yet how hard you have worked and that only depends on luck whether they will ask you a question on a familiar topic.
In conclusion, I think that success is created not only by luck and hard work. It also depends on your talent, charm, ability to resist stress and self-confidence.

People attend college or university for many different reasons (for example, new experiences, career preparation, increased knowledge). Why do you think people attend college or university?
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Training for speaking. I have 15 seconds think and 45 seconds speak.

Outline.
- best job
- communications
- following the dream.


Most people attend college or university to gain knowledge and experience necessary to get the best work after graduation. In some areas, such as in medicine, it is impossible to get a job without a degree.
Acquisition of new experience is also great reason for people to go to college (er, that's bad thought, I feel there are a lot of mistakes there). In colleges and universities you can find many interesting people from different countries and make good friends.
Personally, I'm going to go to university for the sake of a dream come true. I always wanted to become an archaeologist and learn the history of England of the Middle Ages. And I think that if I get a degree then I will have more chances to get to the excavation and do what I'm really interested in.

38 seconds.

PS. If you see any mistakes here, you must can always tell me.
