Il pleut aujourd'hui. Je suis content parce que c'était très chaud cette semaine. C'est difficile pour travaille si c'est chaud. Quelquefois j'ai mal à la tête à cause de la météo. Je suis calme quand il pleut. Normalement je lis des livres intéressants et je regarde des filmes amusants.

Please, check my writing. At the beginning of the year, we all have the intention of starting something new that may benefit us. Being cooped up in our homes because of coronavirus we still have lots of opportunities. Depending on where you look, you can find online courses, free webinars, and sets of coursebooks. The prospect of becoming more successful or productive is amazing but often something deters us from studying. The reasons might vary: the shortage of time when other, more vital things supplant our initial plans, big expenses that can't allow us to buy courses, or just the necessity to have time when we are free to think about nothing. They all are justified. Although we could try to make our goals more feasible. I won't become a fluent English speaker but I can dedicate 30 minutes a day to diligent learning and in exchange will get progress. I'm really willing not to stop it and do my best to accomplish results.

Beatrix Potter is a well-known English writer and illustrator. She dedicated herself to creating children's tales with her own startling pictures. Her first book Peter Rabbit was highly acclaimed by readers of all ages. Next books were popular as well. Beatrix's knowledge of animals was essential for real representation. Spending lots of time outdoors, watching, and exploring made a positive effect on her stories. Except writing, Beatrix Potter benefited local habitat. She bought farms to restore and preserve nature. She managed to describe the local nature so wonderful that people from around the world still come to see those places.

What Are You Optimistic About? The coursebook I use for learning English proposed me to write a paragraph answering the question 'What are you optimistic about?'. There were several topics to choose and I chose the first one as the most relevant for me right now. So, I'm going to tell you that I'm optimistic about my career. It really bothers me these days because of the situation in world economics. As a consequence of lockdown, many companies have to be closed or at least review their budgets and resources. Although I'm still a part of my company, I'm without paid work at this moment. Despite that, I think this time gives us a good opportunity to overview our skills and the situation in our profession. No doubt, only those who are flexible and ready to evaluate the new situation quickly and find an appropriate decision will continue to work in our, certainly, new world. I'm a bit apprehensive about starting to work on a new project after a long period of lack of working tasks. However, now I'm trying to do my best to improve my skills in order to be ready for the new job requirements. And although the pandemic end is still a long way off, I firmly believe that my company will find new partners and things will be better in the near future.

How to learn new words Admittedly, the more you use new words and phrases, the better you remember them. This is the main idea. With this in mind, try to write out new words while you are reading a book or watching a TV-series. First and foremost pay attention to phrases which you meet regularly in a short time. If your vocabulary is big enough you can choose the most interesting new words or words related to your work or to anything else where you are going to use English. In particular, you can use special apps for creating word lists but a usual notebook is also a good idea. Picking up items for learning is a fascinating activity. Nonetheless, it doesn't help you to remember those words (of course if you don't have a photographic memory). Next step, try to find a way to use new words. As regards my choice, this is creating sentences in English. Besides that, you can even create short stories on a particular topic. My first attempts were very painful. I couldn't make up anything with lots of words I didn't know. However, I tried over and over again. And surprisingly, now this is one of my favorite activities in learning. Last but not least, notice the stylistic coloring of words. In short, mark words as formal or informal depending on use. In conclusion, I have to say that it is not easy and not always fun way in the beginning but, be that as it may, only purposeful practice helps to achieve your results.
