To begin with, I want to say that our appearance is just as important as our intelligence and inner world. There is even a proverb that “Clothes make the man”. I couldn’t say better! If you want my opinion, clothes are our mood, comfort and philosophy (attitude to life).

The way people dress depends on their taste and character and also on the season and occasion. There are many style of clothes: casual, classic, sport, traditional, romantic, ethnic, vintage, chic, exotic and others. To my mind, we shouldn’t stop on any particular style because each of them is good in different situations. That’s why I prefer casual style, but sometimes can wear sport or ethnic outfits (for example when I travel abroad).

I’m absolutely convinced that clothes should be comfortable. For me, it’s the most important feature of any piece of clothing. Because I want to be able to walk, work or relax in it. I don’t understand those people who buy inconvenient clothes that just look smart. That’s not reasonable and practical, I consider.

I find that the idea of a “basic wardrobe” is just brilliant! So I try to buy clothes in such a way they could match each other. Most of my sweatshirts, for example, suit all my trousers as well as skirts. The same is about footwear.

We all know that the word "etiquette" means public norms of polite behavior and good-order rules among people, at work, at the table, at a party, at business meetings. In each country, the rules of conduct are different, but for some reason it is the British that are a model of polite tone and manners of behavior.

The whole world has long been laughing and joking at the English pedantry and the ability to remain unperturbable in any situation. But upbringing, alertness and correctness, only emphasize their impeccable culture. They never interrupt during a conversation and do not ask tactless questions. Do not enter into conflicts and try to bypass sharp corners. You will never hear rude words and high pitch, the English are too ambitious to behave this way. Their coldness and stiffness disarm.

At acquaintance and meetings it is inadmissible to hug and kiss on the cheek, but only shake hands. In England, it is not accepted to ask about the amount of income, age (especially women), marital status.

If it concerns business meetings, a visit to a doctor, solemn events, the delay on your part will be disrespectful. Excessive emotionality is not welcomed among the English, but they are generous with compliments on any occasion. This people is modest, and they are very proud, with a sense of dignity. The English never ask for help, do not complain and do not expect sympathy.

In England, the love of the family and of the Motherland is sacred. Here, family relations, problems in the family are not put on display, they do not discuss personal life and relatives. And despite the secrecy and closeness within the family, the English are very hospitable people.

Sport involves all kinds of physical activity of competitive nature. Sport’s mission is not only to train physical abilities or skills. It also provides entertainment to participants and spectators. There are hundreds of sports played worldwide. Some of them require only two participants and some involve whole teams. The largest sport competition in the world is known as the Olympic Games. To ensure fair competition sports are governed by a set of rules and customs.

It is necessary to understand the benefits and importance of sports. People, who do regular sports, look fit, healthy and attractive. More than that, they learn to compete and to win in everyday life. It is even more beneficial if the sport is enjoyable. Among the most popular sports are football, basketball, swimming, tennis, ice hockey, gymnastics, and figure skating.


The word “sport” comes from Old French and means “leisure”. Sport is distinguished by a set of criteria. First of all, it should contain elements of competition. Secondly, it should do no harm to any living creature. Apart from physical types of sport, there are the ones which can be mental. They are also known as mind-sports, for example chess or bridge. Other than that, sports can be primarily motorized (power-boating), animal-supported (equestrian sport) and coordination-dependant (billiards).

The history of sport dates back into Ancient China. There are certain artifacts, which prove that sport was practiced there at 2000 BC. A number of sports were well-developed. Among them, swimming, fishing, gymnastics. Ancient Persians did martial arts, polo and jousting. Ancient Egyptian sports included high jumps and wrestling. A wide range of sports were practiced in Ancient Greece. Moreover, it was the Greeks who established the Olympic Games. Every four years they gathered to compete in a small village of Olympia.

Sports are useful for everyone, but it is not a pleasure for everyone. Sport primarily trains our will, endurance, and will power, so to really like it, you need to possess all these qualities, as well as a great desire to improve yourself and to achieve your goals in spite of everything.

I understood all this, when at the age of five, I began to attend a children’s section of the triathlon. The parents chose for me this multifunctional sport, because it involves three components: running, swimming and cycling. I go in for triathlon up to now. Four times a week I attend sports training, during which guys and I do indoor cycling and run on indoor tracks and learn the technique of swimming and diving in a swimming pool. In addition, coaches organize for us cycling and crosses at the stadium.

Athletes of our sections regularly participate in competitions and take prizes there. I have repeatedly brought various medals and awards for my team. In addition, during our school holidays, we go to training camps, it gives me a special pleasure. To achieve any success in the sport, you should put much effort into this, but I am able to train long and hard because perseverance is in my blood. In addition, I just don’t imagine my life without risk and excitement, therefore, I like to bypass opponents at a distance and set new records.

I think that the sport will always be relevant to me, because only it can give me all those emotions, which are usually in short supply in daily life. In the future, I plan to continue triathlon training, and I also want to evolve in other ways, for example, to conquer the slopes on a snowboard or to surf.

Some people think that beauty comes from the covers of glossy magazines, others are certain that beauty lies inside one’s actions. I myself am one of those people who find beauty nearly in everything.
It’s not easy to give a clear definition of the word “beauty”. It’s a wide notion which is based on what the viewer feels on a conscious and base-instinct level. For example, when I see red roses I say they’re beautiful. The same applies to cute little puppies, kittens, nice architecture, natural wonders, stormy sea, etc. Beauty basically lies in the core of these creatures and objects. At the same time we often notice when women or men are physically attractive. In this case we say: “she is beautiful” or “he is handsome”.
