Once upon a time I woke up at 9 o'clock. I had a wonderful breakfast and I was in a good mood because today is my birthday. I didn't go to school because I was a little bit ill. So, I sat at home and played video games. After the games my mum told me that I have to buy sugar in the supermarket. I put my clothes on and rode a bike. When I arrived to the supermarket I saw a pet shop. I forgot about sugar and went to the shop. There were many different animals: dogs, cats, fishes, hamsters, parrots and els. I saw a small but very funny dog. I liked it so much and wanted to buy it, but what will my parents say? The don't like animals like me. I left the shop and went to the supermarket. I was very sad. When I came back home my parents and friends made me a surprise. But I was still sad. They gave me a big present box. When I opened it I was surprised. It was that dog from the pet shop! It jumped on me and I hugged it. It was the best day in my live.

Independence Day   On July 4 the Americans celebrate their national holiday — Independence Day. The United States gained independence as a result of gradual and painful process.
   By the mid 1700's, it became difficult for thirteen British colonies in the New World to be ruled by a king 3000 miles across the ocean. The British empire imposed high taxes upon the colonies.
   In 1774, the First Continental Congress drew up a list of grievances against the British crown. This document was the first draft of the document that would formally separate colonies from England.
   In 1775, the Revolutionary War began. On July 2, 1776, the Second Continental Congress presented a second draft of the list of grievances. On July 4, the Continental Congress approved the Declaration of independence. But the War of independence lasted until 1783. After the war Independence Day became an official holiday.
   On July 4, Americans have holiday from work. People have day-long picnics with favourite foods like hot dogs, ham-burgers, potato salad, baked beans. Lively music is heard everywhere. People play baseball or compete at three-legged races or pie-eating or water-melon-eating contests.
   Some cities have parades with people dressed as the original founding fathers who march to the music of high school bands. In the evening people gather to watch firework displays.
   Wherever Americans are around the globe they will get together to celebrate Independence Day.День независимости   4 июля американцы празднуют свой национальный праздник — День независимости. Соединенные Штаты получили независимость в результате долгого и болезненного процесса.
   К середине XVII века для тринадцати британских колоний в Новом Свете стала неудобной система, при которой ими управлял король, находящийся в 3000 милях за океаном. Британская империя обложила колонии высокими налогами.
   В 1774 году Первый континентальный конгресс составил список претензий к британской короне. Этот документ стал первым проектом документа, который официально отделил колонии от Британии.
   В 1775 году началась война за независимость. 2 июля 1776 года Второй континентальный конгресс утвердил Декларацию независимости. Однако война за независимость продолжалась до 1783 года. После войны День независимости стал официальным праздником.
   4 июля у американцев выходной. Люди устраивают пикники на весь день с любимыми блюдами: хот-догами, гамбургерами, картофельным салатом, печеными бобами. Везде слышна веселая музыка. Люди играют в бейсбол или соревнуются в гонках на трех ногах или в состязаниях, кто съест больше пирогов или арбузов.
   В некоторых городах устраивают парады людей, одетых как первые отцы-основатели, которые идут под музыку школьных оркестров. Вечером люди собираются посмотреть фейерверк.
   Где бы на земном шаре ни находились американцы, они собираются вместе, чтобы отпраздновать День независимости.
