Healthy Diet : Food Pyramid
Have you ever heard of the Food Pyramid? No, it's not a giant pile of food in Egypt
The Food Pyramid is a cleaver chart to show the five groups of foods that have all the
nutrients that keep your body healthy and make you grow. It includes the different foods
from all five groups and how much of each type of food should eat.
The foods that make up the widest part of the pyramid's base breads, cereals,
rice and pasta should be the biggest part of your diet, followed by several servings of
fresh fruits and vegetables every day. And as you "climb up the pyramid you get to
diary products (milk, cheese, yogurt) and meat, fish, beans, nuts and eggs. And finally,
fats, oils, and sweets are at the very top of the pyramid - which means that you should
eat very little of these foods!
Remember that it's very important to eat these good foods, and also exercise
regularly. And one of the most important meals of the day is breakfast! If you eat
healthy breakfast before leaving for school you're sure to have better grades, pay more
attention at school, and stay healthier than those kids who don't eat breakfast! Leam

Я восхищаюсь Владимиром Шуховым. Его часто называют русским инженером номер один. И он известный русский изобретатель, архитектор и ученый. Он изобрел много полезных вещей. Он строил мосты, заводы, специальные башни, корабли, железные дороги и вокзалы. Владимир Шухов изобрел первый трубопровод в России в девятнадцатом веке! Ему установлен памятник в центре Москвы.

Я уважаю Леонида Рошаля. Он самый известный детский врач в России. Он многим детям в беде. Доктор Рошаль лечил детей в опасных местах. За свои поступки и мужество он получил множество наград: "Европеец года" (в 2005 году), "Доктор мира" и Национальный герой России. В 1996 году он стал Доктором мира. Для меня доктор Рошаль является примером для подражания.

Environmental Protection
Защита окружающей среды
We live in a world full of different types of pollution. Wanting to make their lives easier people have invented so many new devices and factories, that nature is in danger. Unfortunately, environment is not the unlimited source of resources. At the moment, our planet suffers from numerous problems and damages. For example, acid rain, which is the result of waste gases from power stations. Such rains cause forest damages. Other big problems are water shortage and the destroying ozone layer. It is all the result of pollution that comes from factories and plants. Wildlife suffers as well. Many species of animals and plants start to disappear. Another big issue is global warming and green house effect. As you can see, there is a long list of environmental problems, which need to be solved. Otherwise, our planet Earth may get fully destroyed. People should start dealing with these problems immediately. The most important thing they can do is to change their attitude towards the environment. First of all, people should switch to alternative forms of power, such as wind power or solar energy. Secondly, the use of nuclear power should be banned. Thirdly, we should start to recycle. It’s the art of turning waste into new products. Other than that, the number of harmful plants should be reduced because they pollute the air and water greatly. It would be a good idea if people started using bicycles instead of cars. We are obliged to protect nature. If everybody cares, it would make difference.
