No to smoking, Yes to sport!/
An important event has happened recently in our town Volgodonsk. It`s the opening of sport drounds for work-out. Work-out is an international sport movement that finally reached Russia. It features young people training their muscles with the help of horizontal bars. Their aim is to have a good health and to keep an excellent form. Besides, they don`t consume alcohol and don`t smoke. In my view, They really deserve praise as they revive a healthy deneration.
The major boys say the work-out has become their life. Every day after school they go to the sport grounds and work by the sweat of their brow. They say work-out is for strong-willed and independent persons.
The advantage is that you needn`t a personal trainer or expensive sport implements. All you should do is to go to the street and work hard. That`s a very difficult step but it`s the best way to a healthy lifestyle as well.
Speaking about art galleries of Moscow we must mention the most famous galleries.
The State Tretyakov gallery is one of the best known picture galleries in Russia. It takes its name from its founder Pavel Tretyakov, a Moscow merchant. In the 19th century Tretyakov began to collect Russian paintings. He visited all the exhibitions and art studios and bought the best pictures. Little by little Tretyakov extended his interests and began to collect earlier Russian paintings.
State Pushkin museum of fine art also is one of the famous and largest museum in Russia. The building was built in Greek style by Roman Klein in 1898-1912 to house a museum of fine art, founded by the initiative of professor Ivan Cvetayev. Since 1937 it has been known as the Pushkin museum of fine art. It has one of the world's largest ancient collections of European art. Now the picture gallery has over 2 thousands works of various schools of painting.
The Pushkin museum periodically holds exhibition of the art of various countries and of individual outstanding artist of past and present.
