Family dinners My family has a tradition of having Sunday dinners but they are really small. Me, my brother and my parents gather on it. My mother usually cook some bakery on weekeds. For example, we enjoyed pizza last Sunday. I think that tradition of having family dinner is great because it is a good chance to interrupt and become closer to each other.

My favourite films, Do I watch them? I have hardly watched any film this year. I know it is strage but all films I have watched in 2017 were three episodes of "Sherlock". I am fond of Benedict Cumberbatch who plays the role of Sherlock Holmes. I have seen some more films with him including "The Hobbit", "Hawking" and "The Imitation Game". To tell the truth, my friends do not share my interests. Some of them like love series, others are keen on Marvel films. I like films about outstanding people and historical events so I feel myself like a black sheep.

My English language practice My friend asked me about my language studies. Well, we have English language subject at my school, also I go to 'Big Ben', the English language school. I watch films and read books in the original at weekends. I did not have enough money to travel abroad so I practise the language via the Internet. I have some English-speaking pen friends. I think it can be really useful to visit a country of the language you are learning, but not necessary.

PE lessons I went running professionally about three years ago. I took part in running competition several times but I havent won any. I dont really like my PE lessons though Im fond of doing exercises at home and working out in the gym.I think PE lessons in our school are quite boring. We jog, jump and walk around our gymnasium. I think we look stupid.

GM food GM food can help people who suffer from famine. There are many poor countries in the world in which plants can't grow because of pernament droughts. GM food can be grown in dry places. How many people will we save from starvation and grieve if we continue to develop GM food industry? However, we can't be sure it is completely safe. They say that only natural products are good for our health because our ancestors ate them. However, we can find GM food on shelfs in shops in countries which are not poor. If I had a choose I would choose natural fruit and vegetables.

What kind of books do teenagers in Russia read Russian teenagers read fashion and travel magazines. The most popular ones are 'All stars' , 'Ellegirl' and 'Geo'. My friends read magazines more often than large books. Some of them go to library, others buy books in shops or use electronic books. Electronic book has become the most popular way of reading with teenagers. It is cheap and convienient.

Relax after school I usually spend about 7 hours at school and after school I do my homewok. To sum up, all school tasks take about 10 hours a day. As for me, the best way to relax after school is to do some sport. We often swim with my dad in the pool. Sometimes I read books to relax. When I have some study difficulties, I usually go to my mum. She always supports me and helps me not to give up.

My school, my favourite subject There are few subjects at my school: biology, maths, chemistry, phisics, geography, English and Russian language, arts, IT lessons and others. My favourite subject is biology because I'm deeply interested in how bodies of leaving features work especially human body. I also enjoy learning about plants. I use these knowledge in my grandparents' garden. I hardly do homework on history. The paragraphs are too long and boring. By the way, the teacher never give me bad marks.
