    ~Many people believe that social media have had a negative impact on human relationships. Do you agree that our relationships have suffered as a consequence of social media? How do you think social media will affect human relationships in the future? ~ Having appeared in the beginning of the 20th century, social media have become a big part of our everyday routines occupying almost all spheres of people’s lives. They allow us to reach out to others and build big social networks notwithstanding borders and time zones. In the meantime, we can already see the toll they have taken on the way we interact with each other. Replacing live human interaction with chatting in messengers has made us lack basic social skills in real life. It is no doubt that social media have somehow changed the way we interact. There are those who believe that social media is what drifts us apart. To my mind, they can make us even closer than earlier. If you moved somewhere thirty years ago, you weren’t able to see how your friends were doing. Now we can follow each other’s Instagram pages, watch their stories and even connect with them in real time via Zoom or Skype. Of course, these things cannot fully replace live human interaction, but in the conditions of a considerable distance they enable us to keep in touch and spend more online quality time together in comparison with mere telephone calls. It's hard to imagine what effect social media will have on our lives in the future. I believe that nothing will drastically change. As humans are sociable creatures, we won’t be able to survive without any real-life interaction. All in all, social media is a good tool if use it right. In certain circumstances it can be an only solution to the problem of long-distance relationships

    Dieses Jahr hatte ich die wunderbaren Winterferien. Am ersten Tag bin ich zu meine alte Großeltern gefahren. Dort habe ich das leckere Essen von meiner lieber Oma gegessen, und einen schokoladen Kuchen habe ich sogar selbst gebackt. Zwei perfekte Tage habe ich in dem ruhigen Dort verbracht. Ich habe mit den kleinen Hund gespielt und meine schwarzen Katzen gefüttert. Mit meiner lustigen Kusine haben wir eure nächsten Verwandten besucht und danach sind wir in den geheimnisvollen Wald gegangen. Dort haben wir die weißen Hasen und die blühenden Schneeglöckchen gesehen. Nach meinem interessanten Abenteuer bin ich in meine laute Stadt gefahren. Mit meiner Familien haben wir das fröhliche Neujahr gefeiert. Später hat eine enge Freundin von mir mich zum Geburtstagsparty eingeladen. Ich habe ihr ein preiswertes Geschenk geschenkt, aber sie war sehr glücklich.

    Hello, could you check my review, please) A winning combination of enigmatic atmosphere and breathtaking scenery makes "Melancholia" an exquisite masterpiece. The film portrays the life of two sisters and the imminent approach of the mysterious planet Melancholy. As is comes closer to the Earth, it affects the sisters in completely different ways. Justin, who is depressed, becomes happier, since she is ready to accept the End of the world. Claire, however, becomes vulnarable, as she is not ready to lose all she has. Lars Von Trier suffered from depression at the time when he was making Melancholia. Actually, it even inspired him. And you can clearly feel it as you're watching it, since the main heroine suffers from depression too. "Melancholia" isn't gripping in a literal sense, nor it has unexpected twists. The plot develops slowly, giving you time to savour the Wagner's "Tristan and Isolde" and the fantastic acting of Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg. This film isn't going to teach you a lesson, but it will give you the chance to know how depression feels like. The ending is bittersweet and ambiguous. For Justin it was a salvation, and for Claire it was an inevitable catastrophe. "Melancholia" made a lasting impression on me, though I understand why many people don't like it. It is neither bound to entertain you nor it will try to hold your attention. It's up to you whether you want to plunge in the atmosphere of despair or sweet inevitability.

    Tryhatty, the festival of kites Tryhutty, the festival of kites, is known as flamboyant and colourful spectacle. It falls on the fourth of June and it's an event not to be missed. Thousands of kites in the form of dragons are flown in the air. The festival is usually spread over three or more days. Within these days the sky abounds with kites of different forms and designs. In the evenings huge bonfires light the sky up. On the third day, people put a firework display to round the festival off with it. During these days all people are invited to join in the festivities, they sing songs and perform dances around a huge fire, They go wild and party like there is no tomorrow. What amazed me was a festive mood and a warm reception. People showered me with bright kites and invited to the feast, which was held on the third day. I couldn't help smiling when I got home. These are the sort of things which make me feel glad to be alive.

    Common mistakes when translating to English The first problem is rarely used and outdated expressions. Even if you come across such words in a dictionary, they can be of high- and low-frequency. The thing is you need to check the level of frequency. You can do it by searching the word in the Google or corpora. Don’t try to choose the collocations or words which are similar to our language, because they can be different and work in a way you don’t expect. Work on your pronunciation. Don’t try word-for-word translation. Such practice can lead to misunderstanding.
