 Millions of people are fond of watching. There are many different TV programmes, shows, soups, interesting films, advertisements, news, plays to watch. My parents spend a lot of time watching everything. Of course, sometimes they show something interesting but not very often.  If somewhere something important or dangerous takes place journalists will report these events on TV, but their endless soups are awful. Other people say that television is becoming a national disease. I agree with them.  Lots of my friends are fond of watching but I have to confess, I hate TV programmes. I think it's waste of time. And I think that they damage their eyes, become lazy, put on their weight and have no time to do sports or to read books.  I prefer doing sports, playing games in the open air and taking part in different sport competitions.   

Миллионы людей любят смотреть телевизор. Есть много различных телевизионных программ, шоу, сериалов, интересных фильмов, рекламных роликов, новостей, пьес, которые можно посмотреть по телевизору.
Мои родители проводят много времени, смотря все подряд. Конечно, иногда по телевизору показывают что-то интересное, но не очень часто. Если где-то что-то важное или опасное происходит, журналисты сообщат об этих событиях по телевидению, но их бесконечные сериалы - это ужасно.
Другие люди говорят, что телевидение становится национальной болезнью. Я с ними согласен.
Многие мои друзья любят смотреть телевизор, но я должен признаться, я ненавижу телевизионные программы. Я думаю, что это пустая трата времени. И я думаю, что они портят зрение, становятся ленивыми, увеличивают свой вес и не имеют времени, чтобы заниматься спортом или читать книги.
Я предпочитаю заниматься спортом, играть в игры на открытом воздухе и принимать участие в различных спортивных соревнованиях. 

The striped tenrek (lat. Hemicentetes semispinosus) is a representative of a very interesting family, called tenrek or bristly hedgehogs. To understand what this funny animal looks like, you need to put together ... a hedgehog, a shrew and an otter and paint what turned out with yellow and black paint.

It is not difficult to guess that the final portrait will be somewhat unusual: an elongated muzzle with a yellow stripe along the nose, a crown of long sharp needles and many spines scattered throughout the body mixed with thick black hair, long hind legs and short front legs with sharp claws. The exterior is really piquant, but this is exactly what a striped tenrek looks like - a small mammal, endemic to Madagascar, living in the eastern and northern parts of the island.

Striped tenreki - the main object of hunting of famous Madagascar predators, such as Foss and their close relatives of the Mongoose. To protect themselves from attacks on their lives, small tenreks invented an ingenious way of throwing needles at the enemy. Caught in a dangerous situation, they bring their long, jagged needles into combat readiness, directing them towards the predator, and then with sharp movements of the head and torso “shoot” them directly into the nose and paws of the enemy. Of these flying needles is the entire crown on the head of the tenrek, and another part of them is located on the sides of the body.

However, these are not all the functions that an unusual, prickly fur coat of a bristly hedgehog performs. The striped tenrek is the only mammal that has mastered the ability to communicate in the way that beetles, crickets and snakes do.

Wide beige needles that run along the central part of the back, when rubbing against each other, emit high sounds, thanks to which striped tenreks exchange information with their congeners.

Seemingly silent from the outside, the tenreks are in constant communication: in their language, they send sound signals to help them navigate the dark forest. It is on hearing that they rely more than on sight, but the sounds they emit, as in the case of bats, are inaccessible to the human ear.

Communication in the life of striped tenreks plays a very important role, since they are the only ones out of thirty types of tenreks that are combined into groups. Each of these groups, in which there may be up to twenty individuals, occupies a long, about one and a half meters, hole dug at a depth of 15 centimeters near the water body. Striped tenrecs are covered with leaves in their home, and near the hole, these neat little animals necessarily erect what people call a lavatory or latrine.

When the cold season comes, and in Africa it falls on May-October, striped tenrecs lower their body temperature to the level of the surrounding temperature, while remaining active. This trick helps them save energy, but if winter is too harsh, they have nothing left but to hibernate.

From September to December, striped tenreki mate, and after about two months, 6-8 babies are born, who very quickly grow up and are already five weeks old, ready to become parents themselves.
