Circassian ravine.
The famous karst Blue lakes are located by the entrance of the
Circassian ravine.
On the lower terrace, at the height of 2654 feet above
sea level, there is a small Lower Blue lake lying directly against
the road. It's a natural artesian well with a depth of 846 feet.
There are only two lakes in Russia that are deeper than the Blue Lake
- Baikal in Siberia, Lake Teletskoye in Altai. It has blue water because of hydrogen sulfide in it. There is no single streamlet that disgorges into the lake, yet there are 70 million litres of water
coming out every day - the Blue river. The temperature of the lake
is the same all year round (+9,3°).
There are Upper lakes in 3-4 kilometres from the Lower Lake -
the Secret one and the two Communicating. They get water from
the spring river, so there is a lot of fish - trout, roach,
grass carp. There is a big crater of the Disappeared (Dry) lake as
well in this district. The walls of the crater are completely vertical
with a depth of 524 feet and the diameter of 295 feet.
There is a road heading through the Circassian gorge to the hamlet
of Upper Balkaria. There is a lot of medieval fortresses and towers,
on the bottom of the valley there are ancient burial grounds,
mausoleums, crypts. Also, the ancient villages, where people lived
up to the mass deportation of kabardino-balkarian people
in the 1944 year, are kept till now.
The watch-tower of Amirans, built on the 10-meters boulder, now
shows the way for tourists to the Rtsivashki ravine - one of the
Kaukasian wonders.
There are hot springs in Aushiger village. The water temperature of both is +70°С. The healing power of aushiger mineral water are known long ago.
Circassian ravine ends with Shtuline glade, a flowering valley,
where it's always warm and sunny, - the favourite tourists' place
to stay. There are mountains all around the valley. There
is a Narzan source as well. You can see real aurochs and
bearded vultures, that have gone in West Europe long ago.
Russian embassy went through it to Georgia in 1651.
What you can take from Circassian ravine.
Local women knit clothes from wool or fluff of goats and sheep.
You can find work-pieces starting from socks and hats ending big, warm
sweaters and thinnest openwork shawls.
The clothes m swell of a goat, but don't worry - the smell
will disappear very quickly, especially after washing.
You can get horns of an auroch, a horshoe - for good luck. You can
taste local milk, airan and the karabrian cheese.

Please, explain to me what is 'up' in the sentence used for!
The sentence in my school book (Spotlight 9th grade) is a bit unclear: If you go to Paris, don't be surprised if you see people riding gray bikes with metal baskets on the front «up» the Champs Elysees! Could you help me to get the meaning?
That's all the sentence I have. The further text is just about why bikes are gray, some story and that's it's nature-friendly way to go.
I know it could mean some direction, but which one if we're talking about Champs Elysees? And, why did the author of this text decide to show the direction of people riding their bikes, I mean, I don't think there were people riding their bike just in one direction, dig it?
So I could not know something here, please, make it clear! :)

A dialogue about music.
(Hello, I have to create a dialogue with my friend, so I did it, could you show me my mistakes, if there are some of them? Thank you so much!)
Daniil: Hey Sergey, what's up?
Sergey: Pretty good, what about you Daniil?
Daniil: I'm so happy, as I have never been before!
Sergey: Oh, really? Someting good has happened?
Daniil: Yeah, I got a ticket for my favourite singer's concert, and I'm looking for someone to come with.
Sergey: What's the name of your favourite singer you come to the concert of?
Daniil: Her name's Lindsey Stirling, I think she's great at violin playing. Do you know her?
Sergey: Once I saw a music clip of hers, it was awesome! You know, it would be amazing to listen to her playing in real life! May I go to the concert with you?
Daniil: Of course! Do you know what kind of music she plays?
Sergey: I'm not very picky at music genres, what is it?
Daniil: Me neither, but it was so interesting to me that I googled her music genre, so it's called crossover.
Sergey: Sounds good, what kind of music do you like?
Daniil: Although I can't make heads or tails of music genres, I like listening to classical music during chores. I get all relaxed in no time!
Sergey: Yeah, I think classical music helps a lot to get relaxed, so you can focus on the work.
Daniil: Actually, Lindsey plays much more genres, and there will be classical music as well as rock, electronic music and many others!
Sergey: Now I see why you can't wait for the concert! Now I can't wait too!
Daniil: I'm glad you'll go with me, see you at the concert! Bye!
Sergey: Bye!

My favourite TV programme.
If I think of a TV programme, there's only one crosses my mind. This TV programme is called 'Galileo'. It's a popular science programme which is shown every day but weekends. Alexander Pushnoy is a presenter of this programme, who introduces us a topic before an episode begins.
There were many things shown in Galileo, such as: physical experiments, and their explanations, what a helicopter is and how it works, how people cooked their food in past, which animal is dangerous and which is not, how to survive in a winter forest and how your TV works, how to make a slime at home, just about everything! But there are a lot of things unexplored yet, but when they get, Galileo will tell us how they work for sure! Also, I'd like to say Alexander Pushnoy will make you smile making funny jokes before and after an episode. Sometimes he's acting in the episode as well! For example an episode 'How cartoons get voiced'.
I don't know if Galileo is still available to watch it on TV, it was once. But I don't watch TV at all, so I have it available via its YouTube channel.
I think it's a worth time spending TV programme to watch, and I enjoy watching it a lot.

The modern world relies on technological devices too much. [Part 2]
(I couldn't fit my essay in one note, so here's second part)
People wouldn't be people without technology, we work
hard to make the world better. We don't have wings, we cannot run as fast as a cheetah, or breath under water, but technology allows us do such things, it is our
evolution. So I think technology was and will always be an intergal part of our life.
(I hope I haven't made a lot of mistakes, so, I'll be very thankful to you for help!)

The modern world relies on technological devices too much.
(Hello, could you please read my essay and correct me if I did something wrong? Thank you very much!)
Nowadays there are a lot of technological devices in our life, that certainly help people in many ways.
But is it bad that people rely on new technology so much?
In my opinion, it has never been bad! People create new technology to ease their life, but there's a dark side as well.
But all in order!
To start with, I want to pay your attention to the modern world. Life gets more and more easier, because new technology
provides us more and more smart devices, I think you know what a smartphone is! Does it help you to look for information
you need, or search for a TV programm you didn't manage to watch on TV? Maybe you use your smartphone to be aware of
the future weather or you could be a traveller, and accidentally get lost somewhere, but don't worry! Smarthone can help
you! But those all functions wouldn't be able without the greateast creation people have ever made! The Internet!
All new technologies, smartphones, computers, televisions, and probably your washing machine, have access to the Internet!
What do you think the world would be without the modern technology? I'll tell you! The World Wide Web, which now has most of
information and provides it for free, wouldn't be able! That's not all! Forget about immediate messages you send to your
friends! Well, time for letters writing, isn't? And I didn't say you no more able to watch your favourite films, listen to
the music you cannot imagine your life without. But it's just the Internet, there no cars, you have to wash your clothes
in a river, and of course, you just can't buy food for yourself, you have to hunt! It's not a joke, it's what people
used to do centuries ago!
So I think you've got an idea of the technology's importance in the modern world, haven't you? However, someone can say
technology has a dark side, for instance: overusing your smartphone or PC, as a result, damage your sight, more and more
people get their sight worse by sitting next to their computer too long, sometimes, just wasting their time. Furthermore,
there are even bigger problems we have to deal with, such as polluting cities' atmosphere by cars and dropping refuse in rivers and seas.
In conclusion, I would like to say: Human lives became easier once human beings invented the first tools, although someone says
people nowadays depend on technology too much, but I cannot say it's bad.

You grew up hearing about it, but I never figured I'd be going there.
Hello, I'm watching Avatar and Jake said: "Up ahead was Pandora. You grew up hearing about it, but I never figured I'd be going there.
Why You? Who does he talk about?
But I watched it, and.. maybe my hearing is not well enough, but I hear You as well. Not I.
And why do I think that there is You, but not I? There was a moment, when I was watching Sherlock and encountered a similar one:
About serial suicides:
[Reporter] : But you can't have serial suicides!
[Lestrade] : Well, probably you can.
And if the reporter said it first to Lestrade, second - is unclear, why.. who?
Like in these sentences:
One should help people. (Every person should) As I know.
One must not kill people (No one must kill people)
And if those above are right used, you also can be used as one.
You should help people - It's not about person who you talk to, it's about all people.
So.. Jake talks that every Earthman heard about Pandora, but has never thought of going there?
But am I right? I need your help! :)I was forced to make to shorter... wait, I can comment in 9000 symbols?!
Alright, I'm going to write it here, look following:
Hello, I'm watching Avatar and Jake said: "Up ahead was Pandora. You grew up hearing about it, but I never figured I'd be going there.
Why You? Who does he talk about? On this site Avatar (2009) Movie Script | SS I can see I grew up hearing about it, ...
But I watched it, and.. maybe my hearing is not well enough, but I hear You as well. Not I.
And why do I think that there is You, but not I? There was a moment, when I was watching Sherlock (BBC show) and encountered a similar one:
About serial suicides:
[Reporter] : But you can't have serial suicides!
[Lestrade] : Well, probably you can.
And if the reporter said it first to Lestrade, second - is unclear, why.. who?
I'm told that you, as well as one, can used as... I don't know how it's called in elgish, so I ask your help just now :)
Like in these sentences:
One should help people. (Who one? Every person should) As I know.
One must not kill people (No one must kill people)
And if those above are right used, you also can be used as one.
You should help people - It's not about person who you talk to, it's about all people.
So.. Jake talks that every Earthman heard about Pandora, but has never thought of going there?

Daily Note 12.02.16
I just thought, why not to create my little dairy here. So I can express my thoughts, and be corrected.
So today is the 2nd of December, 2016 and this morning was pretty cold. And I'd rather say, it was wet because of snow, which was dropping down, melting at the same time. Muddy puddles were everywhere. I think they will be tomorrow as well, untill the temperature get subzero.
I write it now and even do not remember what was the first class. Lol :D Let me think... Aha! And yes, I just wrote this to show like I remembered, but I didn't.
Alright, I watched in my dairy, and it was chemistry. Never liked chemistry... Probably most people too, but I do it because of the teacher, she's.. she's like she does not like her lesson. Just write something on the board, and I don't even remember did she teach us chemistry or not! And the result is, you probably already guessed, I know nothing in chemistry. (Hope there's no such a situation in English :D)
And when first class ended, I didn't go to the next due to the test, which I hadn't done... great. And then, I got late, nice.
Now we have in my dairy following words: You are late! Or just late.
All next was just the same as always, I got no evaluations, but note of being late.
Probably my favorite subjects are English and programming. But anyway, at english I'm bad sometimes, because I forget words, I need to learn more and more and so on. Peppa Pig helps me to :D
Alright, I guess that's enough for now, hope it wasn't boring to read, thank you!

She knew from experience not to go with an unknown person.
Peter knew from the experience that he better do his homework, than try to write it off then from a classmate.
As time passed, every person on the internet find out from the experience to not download things from unknown sites.
