An Ancient Tradition of the Italian People
By Maria Kostenko, 10b

The action takes place some hundreds years ago in Italy. It was several hours before New Year celebration. A young couple was preparing their festive table. As we know, Italian people are very temperamental and their blood is hot. Everything was ok when suddenly a quarrel began.
Rosella: I don't like this green tablecloth! The following year is the year of the Red Fire Rooster. This is the year when you need to work hard and be patient in order to achieve your goals. That’s why you must learn to make concessions right now! Keep calm and change this tablecloth for the red one!
Placida: Do it by yourself! Did my mother present this wonderful green practically new tablecloth to you vainly?

Evil Giant Squid’s Story
By Alexandra Bobrova, 7c

They call me a monster, an evil, a demon. I am a king of Kaikura Island. My name is Giant Squid. All in all, my life is good, but there are two things that always ruin it. The first thing is a lot of bothersome whales, which often want to eat me. And the second is Jim Banning. He was the very person that set on me a pile of scientists. But let me tell you how it all happened.

Jim Banning was a fisherman, but during the summer he gave guided tours of my beautiful island. He used to tell tourists interesting stories about me. Of course, this stupid man had never seen me, so he didn’t believe that I existed. Still tourists enjoyed his stories and Jim hoped it would improve business.

How to Be British Collection
By Anastasiya Sidorchuk, 11a

First of all, I want to give thanks to Maria Evgenievna for this summer HW, because the book under the title “How To Be British Collection”, which we have had to read, contains all the necessary components of a truly fascinating book: it’s easy to read, it’s exciting, cause each of us would like to get acquainted with the weirdness of people from the country whose language we study at school and the way how author flashes his own disadvantages (mixed with advantages) makes me feel like I’m one of those visitors, who felt both wonder and apprehension.

TRUE BRIT
By Mariya Oberemok, 11a

This man is too polite ….ops; I forgot that we are in Great Britain!

Long and glorious history, beauty of nature, unpredictable weather , achievements in cricket and football - and is it all its greatness?

No, because every country is made by its people with their traditions and mentality. British have a lot of good traditions, their main qualities are courtesy, tolerance and sense of humor.

They grow up at feet and inches and weight at stones, pounds and ounces. Their money are pounds sterling and Great Britain isn’t cheap. They love their homes and it is their castles and gardens is their recreation.

THE HOW TO BE BRITISH COLLECTION REVIEW
By Valentin Matviets, 10b

Some time ago I started reading The How To Be Britsh Collection. It`s extremely fun and interesting. I`ve chosen the best chapters, which may help you enlarge your vocabulary stock with Real English (for example, chapter 18) - a colourful repertoire of IDIOMS, SLANG, COLLOQUIAL EXPRESSIONS, and even the occasional TABOO WORD, as used by flesh and blood native speakers. Can you translate the following?

Mrs. Jones is “her indoors”. – вторая половина
r. Jones is her “other half’. – вторая половина
Their children are the “nippers”. - спиногрызы
The woman next door is “a pain in the neck”.
Her son sells “dodgy” mobile phones.
