Task 1. Read the post from the website for teenagers:

I’ve just finished school and now I have to choose my way in life. I’m really interested in design and I want to be a designer. But my parents want me to choose a different profession. They are doctors and want me to continue the tradition. I can't imagine my life without design and hate everything connected with medicine. Can you give me some advice? Helen, Northampton

Write your advice to Helen (80-120 words).

  Use your ideas
  
• 
  Use “You should”, “You shouldn’t”, “Why don’t you?”
  

Hello Helen. I got acquainted with your situation and really want to help you with advice. Yes, it won't be easy, you have to should to calm. First, listen to their reasoning. As a rule, we will talk about the fact that the business you will be doing is unprofitable, stupid and "what kind of profession is it, where did you hear about it." You shouldn’t have to take everything for granted. Study in detail the nuances of the work you want to do, communicate with representatives of this profession (social networks make it easy to do this), and then explain to your parents. The world is changing very quickly, and new professions are increasingly appearing in it. Most likely, parents may simply not know something, and ignorance causes them well-founded fears. You must explain to them why you want to do this. Say why you don't like what they offer. the profession plays a big role, and then they may forget that you can be guided by other, more compelling reasons. Stock up on arguments and go ahead. You need to explain to your parents why your own preferences are more important to you than the opinions of others.

My best friend's name is Maria. She is not only my closest friend; she is also my oldest friend. We met when we were both five years old and immediately became friends. Maria is very kind and a pleasure to talk to.

She is also very pretty. She's pretty short. Maria is well-built, she has an athletic figure and a beautiful posture. Her shoulders are quite wide for a girl. She has slender arms and legs. Her neck is not very long and rather thin. Maria has beautiful features. Her face is oval. Mary's hair is very long and thick. It's curly. Her natural hair color is blonde, but she dyed her hair brown some time ago. This color suits her and looks very natural, because Mary has thick dark eyebrows. She has a rather high forehead. She has large sparkling brown eyes. Since Maria is very athletic, she often wears sportswear and jeans. But she looks good in dresses too. She generally does not like high heels, so she usually wears sneakers, sneakers or flat shoes. She usually does not wear jewelry, but she likes to wear different beautiful earrings. Her character is very difficult, because you can never understand what she wants. According to the city, she is twins, but still I love her very much.

Dear, Paola! How are things with you? Do you feel this New Year’s atmosphere? I’ve got so many plans for the year coming, so many New Year’s resolutions! So, I want to share them with you!

Hi Maria! How is everything?

I really like to celebrate the new year.

No doubt New Year is the best holiday. But it is not at all because I receive many wonderful gifts from friends and parents. And even not because it comes at the same time with the long-awaited winter vacation. Most of all, I like the feeling of magic that inevitably arises on the eve of the New Year and the mystery that the celebration itself is covered in. I'm going to start doing sports and going to the pool. I also want to learn how to skate, because I haven't learned it all the time. At 12 o'clock in the morning we will go to celebrate the new year on the square. Anyway, that’s about it for the moment. Look after yourself and keep in touch.

Best wishes, Paola.

Millions of people around the world spend their holidays traveling and I am no exception. Travel is my passion. Fortunately, my parents are of the same opinion. So every time we have a holiday, we try to go somewhere new. It can be either a new city or a new country. We have already visited Poland, Italy, Austria, Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria.

---

Most of all I remember the trip to Turkey, which we went to last summer. Turkey is a state in Southwest Asia. Turkey is located in two parts of the world at once, connecting Europe and Asia, the Black and Mediterranean Seas. We were in the city of Bodrum - in the south of the Aegean Sea, which is crowded with tourists in summer. Here you can look at Roman ruins, have fun in trendy clubs and visit charming seaside towns. Turkey fascinated me the most with its rich history and heritage. I consider Turkey the most beautiful place in the world, because the territory of the country is located in two parts of the world - Europe and Asia. It is very beautiful and atmospheric, I advise everyone to visit this country.
