In the life of every person, in addition to relatives, there must be other close people-friends. It is with friends that we communicate based on common interests or joint Hobbies. I was lucky to meet such a person with whom I became friends so much that I can say with confidence that I have a best friend who will support me in any situation. Anya has been my best friend for several years, and I've known her since first grade. Anna has blonde hair, large blue eyes, is short and very thin. My friend is a very snappy dresser and a good student. Teachers always praise my friend and set her as an example. She is a kind, sympathetic person, always fun and very interesting. Anya is not only a nice girl, she is also a very fair and decent person. I have never doubted her in my life, and I know for sure that my friend is always honest with others and will not let anyone down. In addition, my best friend has a dog that she enjoys working with - walks, washes, goes to exhibitions. When we first came to school, Anya and I did not communicate very closely, but it so happened that we were put on neighboring desks and we began to chat more on various topics. It turned out that we have a lot in common - we are both fond of English and volleyball. So, little by little, we became friends and eventually became best friends. Now I can't imagine my life without Anya - we call each other on the phone every day, and on weekends we go to the movies, cafes or just take a walk when the weather is nice. I am always ready to help Anna, even with business or advice. And I know for a fact that my friend is also willing to do a lot for me. I really hope that we will carry our friendship through the years to come. When we finish school, our paths will not diverge, and even as adults, we will continue to be friends. Perhaps one day our daughters will be just like us walking and chatting on all topics. I love my friend very much and am glad that life has brought me together with such a wonderful person.
I'd like to tell you about the 32nd President of the United States - Franklin D. Roosevelt. He was born in Hyde Park, New York on January 30, 1882, the son of James Roosevelt and Sara Delano Roosevelt. His parents and private tutors provided him with almost all his formative education. He attended Groton (1896-1900), a prestigious preparatory school in Massachusetts, and received a BA degree in history from Harvard in only three years (1900-03). Roosevelt next studied law at New York's Columbia University. When he passed the bar examination in 1907, he left school without taking a degree. For the next three years he practiced law with a prominent New York City law firm. He entered politics in 1910 and was elected to the New York State Senate as a Democrat from his traditionally Republican home district.
In the meantime, in 1905, he had married a distant cousin, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, who was the niece of President Theodore Roosevelt. The couple had six children, five of whom survived infancy: Anna (1906), James (1907), Elliott (1910), Franklin, Jr. (1914) and John (1916). He was elected President in November 1932, to the first of four terms. In 1936 he was re-elected by a top-heavy margin. Roosevelt had pledged the United States to the "good neighbor" policy, transforming the Monroe Doctrine from a unilateral American manifesto into arrangements for mutual action against aggressors. He died on April 12, 1945.
Я хотел бы рассказать вам о 32-м президенте Соединенных Штатов-Франклине Рузвельте. Родился 30 января 1882 года в Гайд-парке, Нью-Йорк, в семье Джеймса Рузвельта и Сары Делано Рузвельт. Практически все формирующее образование ему давали родители и частные воспитатели. Он учился в Гротоне (1896-1900), престижной подготовительной школе в Массачусетсе, и получил степень бакалавра истории в Гарвардском всего за три года (1900-03). Затем Рузвельт изучал право в Колумбийском университете Нью-Йорка. Когда в 1907 году он сдал экзамен на адвоката, он бросил школу, не получив ученой степени. В течение следующих трех лет он занимался юридической практикой в известной юридической фирме в Нью-Йорке. Он вошел в политику в 1910 году и был избран в Сенат штата Нью-Йорк в качестве демократа от его традиционно республиканского домашнего округа.
Тем временем, в 1905 году, он женился на дальней родственнице, Анне Элеоноре Рузвельт, племяннице президента Теодора Рузвельта. У пары было шестеро детей, пятеро из которых пережили младенчество: Анна (1906), Джеймс (1907), Эллиотт (1910), Франклин-младший (1914) и Джон (1916). Он был избран президентом в ноябре 1932 года, в первый из четырех сроков. В 1936 году он был переизбран с большим перевесом. Рузвельт пообещал Соединенным Штатам политику "добрососедства", превратив доктрину Монро из одностороннего американского манифеста в договоренности о взаимных действиях против агрессоров. Умер 12 апреля 1945 года.
