How I spent my winter vacationVery good winter season. On the street all is white , nature seemed frozen in anticipation of a miracle. A miracle - a celebration of the New Year! Celebrate the New Year came to our house guests . It was fun ! Once the clock struck 12 , I went with my friend on the street. We played in the snow , riding a roller coaster and lit sparklers. Going home , my friend and I were like snowmen . We did not sleep until the morning and all the while having fun . The next day, the guests had departed, but the holiday spirit remains.Winter vacation I loved , I had a good time : a lot of walking on the street , skate , went to visit his grandmother . But I do not just play and have fun . On vacation I was doing karate and passed the exam for 6 kyu , now I have a green belt , even went to the Republican contest , which took place in the village Raevka . And as I went to engage in linguistic Academy of English.

На протяжении веков, мы использовали лошадей для перевозoк. Лошадь сильнее человека,и она может тянуть за собой вагоны. Колеса вагона облегчают перевозить тяжелый груз. Затем люди начали использовать каналы. По каналу транспортировали медленнее, но в лодках помещалось больше вещей. Лодку для каналов спустили на воду. Вода облегчает перевозить тяжелый груз. Сто лет назад, каналы и лошади были очень важны. Теперь мы не используем лошадей. Мы используем магистрали и грузовые автомобили. Грузовики имеют большие двигатели. Грузовики мощнее, чем лошади. Они могут тянуть более тяжелые грузы. Грузовики быстрее, чем лодки.
