A I'm from London, but I live on Sark, an
island in the British Isles.
B London is a fantastic city; it's really big,
with amazing buildings and luxury shops,
but it's noisy. I'm not into cities - I prefer
quieter places.
C Sark is tiny, 5.45 km², and its population is
small too. There are only about 600 people
on the island. There are some small shops
and restaurants, one or two offices and one
school. But the incredible thing is there are
no cars!
D Sark is ideal for cycling, and it's a popular
place for tourists. It's really pretty and
there are a lot of animals.
E I'm interested in cycling and photography,
not shopping or fast cars. That's why my
home is here in Sark, not London. It's the
perfect place for me.​

Перевод:

Николаев — город на юге Украины, административный центр Николаевской области. Имя свое он получил через год, после победоносного штурма Очакова российскими войсками под командованием А.В. Суворова. Очаков был взят в декабре 1788 года, в день Святого Николая, защитника моряков. В его честь и назвали новый город.
Судостроению и флоту полностью была подчинена жизнь города.  Именно в Николаеве В.И. Даль, находясь на воинской службе, приступил к созданию «Толкового словаря живого великорусского языка».
В городе побывало множество русских деятелей культуры.

It was hot and we decided to walk in the shadow of the wall.
The temperature was over 90C degrees in the shade.
She felt as if every pair of eyes in the room was on her.
I just need to make a couple of calls.
In the morning, with a clear head, she had solved the problem.
Before hiring Sam as a chauffeur they made sure he had a clean driving licence.
Everybody stood in admiration watching the pod of whales on the horizon.
The excursion to the valley full of swarms of butterflies costs a lot.
If the bear growls, it is the sound of warning.
The crowd roared in delight.
