About memorizing new words. Recently I listen to several english podcasts about how to make learning languages more effectively. It was interesting. I have heard one advice in different sources. It was a suggestion about improving memorizing of new words. Usually I write down unfamiliar words and their translation. I try to remember it, and also try to make a sentence with this word. The advice, which I have heard, was about an additional action with unfamiliar words. When you find a new word in a movie, a book or any source you have to write down this word. Also you need write down a sentence or part of sentence, which you heard with this word. It helps for memorizing. Also it shows correct usage of the word. It helps apply correctly the word in future. I think, it make sense. Some words in my dictionary have a translation and an example of using, but some words have only translation. Sometimes, when I review certain words wich I wrote, I don't remember where I heard this word and don't imagine how I can use this word in future. I guess, advice, wich I heard, is good. I would like to follow it.

About our dog. I never thought that I ever would have a dog. Dogs are very noisy, they require a lot of attention and take a lot of time, I thought. But when my kids was small, they asked me and my husband persistantly to get a dog. After several years of convictions we agreed and got a dog. Our dog is eight years old. Her name is Tina. She so smart and funny, that I can't imagine life without her. She takes partisipation in whole life of our family. We take her to every our trip. She has been to different cityes of Russia, to different countries of Europe and even she has been twice in a water trip. Tina so clever that she distinguish more than twenty items. I can ask her to bring her toy, for example, "ball", "sheep", "bird" or another and she brings me what I asked. She so smart, funny and loyal! Everybody love her in our family.

Advantages and disadvantages of living in large city. Today I want to tell about advantages and gisadvantages of living in large city. I live in Moscow more than 10 years, and something I like here, but something dislike. The nice side of living in Moscow is huge number of different culture events. There are a lot of concerts, exhibitions, perfomances, and othe interesting events. (I mean normal life without Covid) Another benefit of living in Moscow is plenty opportunities for job, A good specialist can finds a good job with high salary. The last big advantage is a comfortable living conditions for citizens. There are lot of parks, lowns, playgrounds, sport grounds and other things for rest. The main disadvantage of living in Moscow is crowding, noise and people, who hurring on the street and in the underground. The second disadvantage is long distance between a different places. Some of people get to their work during two hours. People, who use a car spend a lot of time on the road (route?) because truffic. This is my opinion about the best and the wost features of life in large city.

About my listening practice I know that listening is a significant part of study languages. But it is very difficult to find good material for listening. In my opinion, good material must be suitable for your level of language skills and interesting for you. My level is not high. In this note I want to share how I was looking for suitable video material. I tried to find good material more than year. And I am keep on doing this. I have a subscription on the site with TV series, cartoons, movies and different studies video and show on English language. I tried to watch some cartoons. For example "Peppa pig" and "Shrek". I don't like cartoons and I was pity to waste time for this. I tryed to watch movies, but is was hard to understand, Eventually, I found a good series "The Good Place". It is interesting story for me. I watched more than 20 episodes and I am continue doing this. But it is not only listening. I am watching this series with subtitles. I know that I need to find material which I can listen without subtitles, but I can not find such movies or series yet. I can listen and undestand studies video "Oxford Online English" and "Let's talk" without subtitles. I think, this is good material and most of episodes I undestend without subtitles. I think, it is very important to be able to take information only listening, without reading.
