Family is an integral part of every person’s life. it is the most important social unit. a sense of stability and tradition, that family provides, can’t be replaced by anything or anyone. perhaps, every family follows some special traditions that have been passed to them by former generations. my family is not an exception. for example, in my family it is habitual to dine together. every evening, when my parents come home from work, we have a nourishing family dinner. first of all, it lets us feel as a close unit. secondly, we get to discuss the important events of the day. the same tradition can be seen in my grandparents’ house. other than that, we are used to share the household chores. everyone has its own duties. for example, my mum is responsible for cooking, while my dad always does the shopping. i’m responsible for the pets and plants, while my older sister is responsible for washing the dishes and vacuum-cleaning. in my opinion, we are a close-knit and friendly family. each time there is an official holiday we invite the friends and arrange a posh feast. we especially like celebrating new year and christmas. the traditional new year dishes in our home are a roast chicken, a couple of russian salads and my mum’s specialty - a vanilla cake. we always prepare postcards and presents for everyone who visits us and for our family members. the presents are usually placed under the christmas tree. other family tradition is going out on friday nights. every friday we go out for a dinner. after that, we either come back home to watch a good movie, or we go to the cinema. there are lots of other traditions in my family, but these seem to be the most important ones.

Космическая свадьба
Некоторые невесты беспокоятся в день своей свадьбы, что жених не появится. Но Екатерина Дмитриева приехала на свадебную церимонию зная, что ее будущего мужа не будет там, по крайней мере, лично. Фактически, в то время он летел вокруг Земли на космическом корабле. Но русский космонавт приоделся по этому случаю и у него даже был шафер.
Наш корреспондент сообщает: «Невеста была одета в традиционное белое платье и прибыла в специальном автомобиле, но это все, что было нормально в свадьбе двадцатисемилетней Екатерины Дмитриевой и ее возлюбленного Юрия Маленченко. Та как жених был не в состоянии присутствовать лично, гостей встречала вырезанная из картона фигура сорокаоднолетнего космонавта. Он должен был вернуться с затянувшегося задания Международной космической станции в октябре, но пара решила, что они не могут ждать так долго, чтобы связать себя узами брака».
Фрак и обручальное кольцо жениха были доставлены на грузовом судне, член экипажа согласился быть шафером — и таким образом, была подготовлена почва для первой в мире космической свадьбы, которая проходила по видеосвязи в Космическом центре НАСА в Хьюстоне, штат Техас. Невеста говорит, что физическое расстояние в момент подготовки не было проблемой. Но были некоторые проблемы со свадьбой. НАСА и аэрокосмическое агентство России пытались уговорить пару подождать, пока Юрий не вернется на Землю.
