1 не нужно, только второе.

School is our second home. I often hear it from the teachers. And I agree with them. I like to go to school because here I can learn more about the world around me. I communicate with a big number of people. And this helped me to make new friends. Besides this the school teaches us how to behave correctly with senior people as well as the friends. Each day in school looks like a magical trip to unknown worlds. I have different lessons like History, Literature, and Math where teacher shows me different pieces of our big world. I like History most of all as in this way I can get to know about the events that took place many years ago. I learnt about big number of persons whose names we remember for today. Some pupils do not like school as they have certain problems with study. But I think that when you want you can overcome any problems. Moreover the teachers in our school are always very friendly. They always try to help every pupil to understand the material and get the better marks. I can always ask teacher if something is unclear for me. Besides this, teachers are going with us to different museums, exhibitions, parks telling us many interesting things and teaching us to become cultured persons. School gives me a lot of knowledge and helps me to get prepared for the grown-up life.

Today the life of many young people in Russia as well as in other countries of the world is influenced by popular culture. The young follow certain stereotypes that are imposed on them through TV, movies, and music. In their lifestyle they try to imitate the images of their idols. Other young people are sports and music fans. They follow their idols in their tours and support them. Unfortunately they are intolerant to those who don't share their view. It's a specific aspect of the youth subculture that can't be ignored.

Сегодня жизнь многих молодых людей в России, а также в других странах мира находится под влиянием массовой культуры. Молодые люди следуют определенным стереотипам, которые навязываются им через телевидение, кино и музыку. В своей жизни они пытаются имитировать изображения своих кумиров. Другие молодые люди увлекаются спортом и любят музыку. Они следуют за своими кумирами в туры и поддерживают их. К сожалению, они нетерпимы к тем, кто не разделяет их точку зрения. Это специфический аспект любой молодежной субкультуры, который не может быть проигнорирован.
