1. Speak about the most striking traits of peoples character
During our life we get in touch with many people. We all know a
password: “So many characters, so many people “ and it is really true.
Character is the most important thing in a person which attracts or
repulses other people. Each of us has his or hers good and bad features
of character, but some of them come to the fore that’s why we can say :
“He is a bad man , because he is rude or impertinent . And he is a good man
because he is courageous, generous, kind-hearted . I have many friends &
a lot of acquaintances and they are all different . Some of them are very
kind-hearted and friendly some are not so kind but they are devoted
friends and always help me and their friends, but they can be very cold or
indifferent to other people. Also some feature have a double nature
example: modesty or perseverance and others. Modest people are usually
polite, quite, but sometimes they tend to be too reticence. Persevering
people can become obstinate. As for me I like devotedness , wittiness ,
kindness, friendliness , in people. I think that there are 2 sorts of kind
people. The first sort is really ,kind-hearted people who are always
ready to help all people in the world no matter what social position they
have The other sort who only try to look kind and friendly. But they are
friendly only with people whom they interested in. I hate such people
because you don’t know if they are really good or only want to look
friendly and I cannot trust them. A lot of things can change a person’s
character. If you are a kind man and you has grow up with rude, cruel
people you can become the like them or vice versa a bad man can become
kind. Some people have a strong character and they can try to change and
become good. For example people why often let of their steam it is
necessary to control themselves and so on. Every character forms in the
society therefore in the society determines one’s character. Also I
believe that Signs of Zodiac influence one’s character. Every Symbol has
own features common for all people born under this symbol. For example I’m
Libra ,in my Horoscope it says that in me there are 2 persons. And other
good and bad features. But I also believe that everyone can change his
character, adding more good or bad features.
2. Travelling by air .Give your counter reasons in fever of flying.
It is very interesting to travel. You can see other countries,
continents, you acquainted with other people , their traditions and
customs. You can travel by car , by train, by air, by sea. If you like to
see the nature, and you enjoy the process of travelling and you have a
route it will be easier if you travel by car. Travelling by train is
usually chosen by people who have enough time to get from one place to
another . Travelling by air usually preferred by people who haven’t got
much time and they must quickly get to another city, country or continent.
Nowadays there are a lot of businessmen who have to communicate with people
from other countries. Every day they must sign a lot of contracts.
Sometimes they have to sign several contracts within one day ,for example
in France and in Spain .And if there were no planes it would be impossible.
Each of us has a lot of relatives and friends. Some of them live in other
countries. For example you live in Russia, Moscow and you have some
relatives in France or in Britain. You certainly can get to GB by train ,
and by sea but it will take you a lot of time. It would be easier if you
choose a plane. Imagine that something has happened to your friends and you
are need very immediately. The plane will help you in this case. Nowadays
we try to use fast means of travelling such as a modern high-speed railway
in France and certainly planes. As for trains there are railway stations ,
for planes there are airports. In every airport there are some formalities
without which you cannot come or leave the country .At first it is
Customs. Every country has it’s regulations. Then you are given luggage
tags and boarding passes. The last is the Passport control. When you decide
to travel by air you can buy first and economy class tickets. The first
class is more comfortable than economy and it is always more expensive .In
spite of first class tickets being very expensive have some advantages over
economy. At first it is more comfortable seats. The dinner is much better
then in economy class , and if you have bought a first class ticket you can
have 30 kg luggage free of charge. Also you have a private emergency exit
for the first class passages only. You have one more advantage : you can
take any drinks free. Although flying by plane is very fast it has some
inconveniences. There is a jet-lag, a difference between the time you are
accustomed to and the new time. At first you won’t be very well because of
it , but don’t worry – it won’t take you long to get used to it. As a
whole to fly by planes is pleasant and convenient
3 . Speak about airport formalities
Passengers are requested to arrive at the airport 2 hors before
departure time. They must register their tickets, weigh in and register the
luggage. Most airports have at least 2 classes of travel, first class and
economy class, which is cheaper. Each passenger of more than 2 years of age
has free luggage allowance. Generally this limit is 20 kg for economy class
passengers and 30 kg for first class passengers, excess luggage must be
paid for except for some articles that can be carried free of charge. The
rules for passengers who are going abroad are similar in most countries but
sometimes there might be a slight difference in formalities. If , for
instance , you are supposed to begin with going through the Customs, you’d
better fill in the customs declaration before you talk to the customs
officer. He may ask any passenger routine questions about declare the
things, spirits , tobacco , presents. Then you do to the check – in counter
where your ticket is looked at, your things are weighed and labelled. The
next formality is filling in the immigration form and going through
passport control. The form has to be filled in block letters . You write
your name, nationality, permanent address and the purpose of your trip. In
most countries there is also a security check when your carry-luggage is
inspected. This is an anti-hijacking measure, and anything that might be
dangerous or disturbing to other passengers must be handed to one of the
crew and only returned to the owner after the plane has reached its
destination. After fulfilling all these formalities you go to the
departure lounge where you can have a snack , read a paper buy something in
the duty-free shop and wait for the announcement to board the plane. Some
of these formalities are repeated when you arrive at your destination. The
customer declaration and the immigration form are often filled in on board
the plane. At the airport you may be met by a specially trained dog who’ll
make sure that you are not earring drugs, and the immigration officer might
want to know on whose invitation you are coming and whether you have a
return ticket. There is one inconvenience you have to be prepared for when
you travelling long distances by plane. It’s a difference between the time
you are accustomed to and the new time. At first you won’t be feeling very
well because of it, but don’t worry – it won’t take you long to get used to
it.
4. Staying at the hotel. Speak about everyday services available at the
hotel.
When you come to another country or city you can stay at your friend’s
house or flat. But if you haven’t got any relatives or friends you may stay
at a hotel. There are 2 sorts of hotels: at the seaside and in city The
hotels at the seaside usually occupied big territory . And the services
and facilities are usually better there then in city hotels. You can get
more things free. Also at the seaside hotels food is served usually 2 of 3
times a day and in city hotels you can get only breakfast . Before you
arrive somewhere you can make arrangements about a room of the hotel you’ll
choose. You can call at the hotel of send them a fax or telegram which
