1.My favourite sportsman is Lionel Messi, who is one of the best footballers of nowadays and one of the best players of all times! He was the best player in the world in the years 2009-2012.
Lionel Messi was born in June 1987 in the city of Rosario, in Argentina. He has two brothers and a sister. Two of his cousins are also footballers. His father's family comes from Italy, but the ancestors moved to Argentina in 1883.
Messi stared playing football when he was 5 years old. His father, a factory worker, was his first coach. Messi's grandmother wanted him to become a footballer and she herself brought Lionel to sport club trainings. Later on Lionel often devoted his first goals to her.
When the boy was 11 his family moved to Barselona.
2.My idol is Michael Jackson. I like all his songs and I admire his personality. I think that he was a multi-talented person. He managed to stage fantastic and spectacular shows. He was a great singer and dancer. Besides, he did a lot for poor and disabled children of Africa.He started singing in public when he was only five years old. Since then he had been working like a grown-up. He had never had free time to play with other children and he led a very stressful life. He felt safe with animals and children and he feared crowds. He was a bit childish too. He loved kids’ stories and his favourite hero was Peter Pan.
3.I imagined that I had invited my idol Charlie Chaplin to the café for ice cream.
I wasn't sure, that cinema star would find time for me. I got very glad, when I saw that the man with height of 5 feet and 4 inches, dressed in black suit was entering the café room and approaching me. I have recognized him at once. This time his umbrella served him as a cane. His head was decorated as usual with his a bowler hat. I admired his habitual gait.
Charlie narrated me an interesting story about his birth. He was born in a gypsy wagon. His parents were gifted circus performers. During our conversation, I thanked my idol for his talent. I said him that I was always fascinated with his films, especially with comic image The Little Tramp. Charlie was laughing genuinely, because I thought in my childhood that he couldn't speak.
Chaplin was also an outstanding composer.
