ответ:

when you leave school you understand that the time to choose your future occupation has come. it's not an easy task to decide what profession to choose. i have known for a long time that leaving school is the beginning of my independent life, the beginning of more serious examinations of my abilities and character.

  i am interested in computer science (2) and want to be a computer programmer. i have a computer at home and can spend hours working at it. it is a completely new world. computers greatly simplify (3) day-to-day life. it is much easier to do some things on the computer. it solves (4) in seconds the problems generations of mathematicians would need months or years to solve.

  i think that the profession of a programmer will give me many opportunities. computing is the most rapidly changing sphere of a modern technology. we are living in the age of information. today it's even hard to tell all the uses the computer may have in the future. in our country they have been used just for a short time. but in england or in the us people can work, go shopping or communicate sitting at their computers.

объяснение:

i have a lot of friends, but the best friend of mine is irina. she has blue eyes, a round face, fair hair and a broad smile. she is short and slim. i have known her for a long time, since our first school years. but we became true friends four years ago. we have much in common: we like english and psychology, sport and dancing.

we are looking at this world in the same way. we don't understand meanness and treachery. for many years we have been sitting at the same desk: irina and me.

at weekends i come to her place. irina has wonderful parents. we have a good time together. i think that we shan't stop going to the gym at school and we'll often meet our school friends.

i love my friend and i think she is my true friend.

перевод:

у меня много друзей, но лучшая подруга ирина. у нее голубые глаза, круглое лицо, светлые волосы и широкая улыбка. она невысокая и стройная. я знаю ее давно, с первых школьных лет. но мы стали настоящими друзьями четыре года назад. у нас много общего: мы любим и психологию, спорт и танцы.

мы смотрим на этот мир одинаково. мы не понимаем подлости и предательства. мы с ириной много лет сидим за одним столом.

по выходным я прихожу к ней. у ирины замечательные родители. нам хорошо вместе. я думаю, что мы не перестанем ходить в спортзал в школе, и мы часто будем встречаться с нашими школьными друзьями.

я люблю свою подругу и думаю, что она мой настоящий друг.
