FAMOUS PEOPLE IN HISTORY OF YOUR COUNTRY

You are going to give a talk about famous people in history of your country. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10—12 sentences).

Remember to say:

• who they are when they lived;

• what they are famous for;

• what you like or dislike about them;

• what your attitude to the famous people in the history of your country is.

You have to talk continuously.

Now I am going to tell you about famous people in the history of my country. I would like to tell you about A. S. Pushkin and F. M. Dostoevsky.

* Pushkin was born in Moscow and was a writer and poet. Dostoevsky was also a famous Russian writer, who lived in Moscow. Both of them lived in the 19^th century.

* To tell the truth, both are famous for their impressive works. Pushkin’s most famous poem is Eugene Onegin. One of Dostoyevsky’s most popular works is Crime and Punishment. Most Russians know those novels.

* As far as I am concerned, I really like those writers, even though their works are big and complex. I enjoy the novel Eugene Onegin very much. It is impressive, beautiful, and still very relevant to our life. It sounds very gorgeous to me. I hear people use many citations form it.

* My attitude to famous people in the history of my country is positive. I think their works and achievements in culture and science teach us to be persistent. They make us proud of our country. The more prominent and outstanding people we know, the better we understand what’s going on in current history of the world. Nothing is new, everything repeats itself in this life.

In conclusion, I want to say that in my opinion it is important to know famous people from your country because they are part of our history. You may become famous one day, too.

That’s all that I wanted to tell you about famous people in history of Russia.

FASHION

You are going to give a talk about fashion. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10—12 sentences).

Remember to say:

● why fashion is so important for teenagers;

● what and who determines fashion trends for teenagers;

● what clothes are popular in your country;

● what your attitude to fashion is.

You have to talk continuously.

Now I am going to give a talk about fashion. It’s a very interesting topic to talk about.

* In my opinion, fashion is important for teenagers because they want to stand out among their friends. Girls follow fashion more than boys. They try to keep up with the latest changes in clothes, hairstyle, manicure, makeup, and accessories. Boys also try to dress up and look cool. As history of humankind says it has always been the case at all times. That’s the way it goes.

* To tell the truth, nowadays celebrities, bloggers, movie stars, and opinion leaders determine fashion trends for teenagers and even adults. the Internet enables us to get any information almost immediately. So any new features catch on among teens quickly.

* You know traditional clothing of past centuries remains only in museums. Nowadays, people in my country wear clothes that most people in other countries wear. It should be comfortable and of good quality. Formal suits and smart dresses are used only at official receptions. Sneakers, jeans, T-shirts, and casual wear rule the roost. That kind of thing.

* You won’t believe it but I hate shopping for clothes. That’s why I don’t like to follow fashion. I know you may say people judge you by what you wear. I have some comfortable clothes of a few years old and it doesn’t affect how I feel about myself. I wear something I feel good in. Of course, I keep in mind what is suitable for sport and what is okay for school. And I’ll never put on a swimming costume for my friend’s wedding. Nothing of the kind.

That’s all I wanted to tell you about fashion.
