A Skillful Piece of Work.

Once Birmingham and Sheffield, two of the largest towns in England, began to quarrel. The quarrel started as each of them claimed to be able to produce the most skillful piece of work.A special jury was chosen to decide which city would show the greatest skill.

The day arrived. A steel spider with long thin legs was produced by representatives of Sheffield. The spider was made by the best workers. It was as small as a pea. It ran about on the table as if it were alive. A wonderful mechanism had been put in that little body. Everybody was sure that the first place would be given to Sheffield.

Then a sewing needle was laid on the table by representatives of Birmingham. A smile appeared on the lips of the jury when the needle was noticed.Then the top of the needle was screwed off and 4 needles were drawn out, one from another.

The first needle, as it was, had been the case of the four other needles. The needles were handed over to each member and examined with great interest.
In whose favour did the jury decide?

I usually get up at 7 o’clock. Of course it’s too early for me. You can say “Why? ” I’ll answer: «I like to sleep so much, and I usually go to bed very late. So at 7 o’clock I feel myself sleepy. For that reason I drink a cup of strong coffee to wake up more quickly. After a cup of coffee I usually take a shower. Fresh shower braces up. Then I get dressed. I open my wardrobe and choose what I want to wear today. It’s high time, I’m in a hurry. But I try to have a snack (sandwiches, eggs, porridge and so on). I need to be at school (university) at 8.30. I get away and go to the bus stop. I usually go to school (university) by bus. (I go to school (university) on foot.)

So I’m at school (university). I usually have 6 lessons (4 classes). I like to study, but sometimes it is boring. I’m rather a creative person, but I can’t express my personality at school (university). For that reason I visit additional courses and activities. Three times a week I go to the Music School. I like to listen to music. At school (university) I usually have a dinner. I go to our schhol (university) canteen. It’s rather tasty food in it.

At 5-6 o’clock I like to play with my friends. We usually go for a walk. We like different parks. Sometimes we watch films, play computer games and discuss the latest news.

In the evening I usually do my homework. Sometimes I do homework till the late night. And then I go to bed. But some days I try to have a rest before my sleep.

And undoubtedly, I’m looking for a wekend. Weekend is a marvelous time for all pupils and students. It is a time for a good rest. I try to relax in full force and effect.
