My country is Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is very beautiful country. It is one of the largest countries in the world.

The capital of the country is Astana. The Head of State is the President.

Kazakh is the official language; Russian is the language of international communication.

 The territory of Kazakhstan stretches 3000 km from west to east and 1000 km from north to south. In the west and north Kazakhstan borders on Russian Federation, in the south – on Turkmenia, Uzbekistan, Kirgiziya, in the east – on China.

The central part of the country is the Kazakh low hills with not very big mountains. The southern chains of the Altai Mountains are in the east and southeast. The south is covered with Betpak-Dala and Moiynkum deserts.

There are a lot of rivers and lakes in Kazakhstan. The main rivers are the Irtysh, the Ural, the Chu and the Syrdarya. The main lakes are Balkhash, partly Aral and the Caspian Sea.

The country is situated far from the oceans. The climate is sharply continental. In the north winters are long and cold. In the central part winters are not so cold, but in the south they are mild and warm.

Summer is dry; in the south it is very hot. It usually rains in the steppes in summer and in the desserts in spring. It is windy in all parts of Kazakhstan.

The wildlife of Kazakhstan is very different too. There are about 155 species of mammals. Most of them are rodents. There are a lot of hoofed animals: saigas, dzeheirans in the deserts, marals, deer in the lowlands. In the mountains wild boars, roes can be met. There are predators in Kazakhstan: wolves, foxes and weasels can be met. There are many species of birds too.

I think my country is the best. I like it.

 

I got up at 10 am. l'm often go to the swimming pool on holidays, and this holiday was not exception. I brushed my teeth, dressed and gathered the bag into the pool. At 2 o'clock I went home. After lunch me and my friend Lisa went for a walk in park wich situated near my house. At 6 o'clock we went to visit our friend August and had dinner with him. We watched comedy on television and laughing. My mom called me at 8 o'clock in the evening and told me to go home. In half of the 9 pm I was at home and told my mother about my day. I went into the shower and at 10 pm went to bed.
