My dear Sean,
How lovely (a) (get) your letter! Mummy is right! I will really enjoy
(b) (help) you with your schoolwork, and I will try very hard (c) (remember) what it was like when I was a little girl all those years ago.
When the war started, I was just five and I’ll never forget (d) (watch) my grandfather dig a big black hole in the back garden. This was our air raid shelter. At first I was really scared of (e) (go) into it. Every time the siren went off, I started (f) (tremble) and I was sick, actually sick with fear. I refused (g) (leave) my bed. I didn’t find it easy (h) (get) used to (i) (sleep) in that shelter. But soon, (j) (live) in cities was so dangerous that the government decided (k) (send) all the children away to the countryside. I think I was lucky because I was able (l) (go away) to my aunt’s. Some children were forced (m) (stay) with total strangers. My aunt lived in a small town, called Alston, high in the hills, not too far from Newcastle. And guess what, Sean, she had a sweet shop! Mrs Crozier’s Sweet Shop. But, oh dear me, at first I was so unhappy, I couldn’t help (n) (worry) about my mother back home. My aunt let me (o) (have) as many sweets as I wanted, but I was too miserable (p) (eat) many. Silly me! Most children didn’t have the chance of (q) (get) lots of sweets because sweets were rationed. That meant that you couldn’t buy all you wanted. You were only allowed (r) (buy) a small amount. Lots of other things were rationed, too. It was impossible (s) (get) butter, cream, fruit, vegetables, and petrol. We did without a lot of things during the war. Can you believe that just after it ended, someone gave me a banana and I didn’t know what (t) (do) with it?
Sean, I hope this is useful. I’m longing (u) (see) you all. Give my love to Mummy, Daddy and Liam. Don’t worry, he’ll be much more fun soon.
Lots of love and kisses,
It is known Pushkin was famous Russian poet and writer. He is often compared with Shakespeare because both of them were great poets and playwriters. Alexsander Sergeevich Pushkin was born on May 26, 1799 in Moskow. His family was from upper-class and he got a good education. So in 1811 he became a pupil of the lycuem at Tsarskoey Selo.
He started writing at lycuem. After he had graduated he got a good job in the foreign office in St. Petersburg. But in 1820 for his anti-tsarist poetry and letters Pushkin was transferred to Ekaterinoslav, then to Odessa and to Mikhailovskoye. In 1824 it was allowed to return him back to Moskow by Tsar Nicholas I . At this time Pushkin fell in love with Goncharova Natalya and in a few years they got married. But their unit was not happy. There was gossip about Natalya’s affair with Baron Georges d’Antes. And it was a tragedy. Pushkin challenged d’Antes to a duel where was wounded. Later in two days he died.
Today we can really say that his works are of genius, masterpieces. Because they influenced poets of that time, thoughts of people, changed their lives. Pushkin’s way of using Russian language influenced the great Russian writers as Turgenev, Goncharov, Tolstoy. All his literary work can be divided into some periods. 1818-1820 was Romantic time, when his poetry was inspired by works of Syren’s, Lord Byron.
Then he was more serious and wrote many novels which can be called — masterpieces. Among the most famous works are Ruslan i Lyudmila, Kavkazskiy plennik, Tsygany, Medny vsadnik, Yevgeny Onegin, Boris Godunov, Pir vo vremya chumy, Metel, Dubrovsky, Kapitanskaya dochka and others.
The works of Pushkin are a classic. Because all ideas from them are real and great. We can called Pushkin the most important Russian writer.
Перевод:
Известно, что Пушкин был известным русским поэтом и писателем. Его часто сравнивают с Шекспиром, потому что оба они великие поэты и драматурги. Александр Сергеевич Пушкин родился 26 мая 1799 года в Москве. Его семья была из высшего класса, и он получил хорошее образование. Так в 1811 году он стал учеником ликуема в Царском Селе.Он начал писать на ликуем. После того, как он окончил школу, он хорошо поработал в иностранном офисе в Санкт-Петербурге. Но в 1820 году за его антисаристскую поэзию и письма Пушкин был переведен в Екатеринослав, затем в Одессу и в Михайловское. В 1824 году было разрешено вернуть его обратно в Москву царем Николаем I. В это время Пушкин влюбился в Гончарова Наталью, и через несколько лет они поженились. Но их подразделение не было счастливым. Сплетни об истории Натальи с бароном Джорджем д'Антес. И это была трагедия. Пушкин бросил вызов д'Антес на поединок, где был ранен. Позже через два дня он умер.
Сегодня мы действительно можем сказать, что его произведения гениальны, шедевры. Потому что они влияли на поэтов того времени, мысли людей, изменили их жизнь. Пушкинский использования русского языка оказал влияние на великих русских писателей, таких как Тургенев, Гончаров, Толстой. Вся его литературная работа может быть разделена на несколько периодов. 1818-1820 был романтическим временем, когда его поэзия была вдохновлена работами Сирена, лордом Байроном.
Затем он стал более серьезным и написал много романов, которые можно назвать шедеврами. Среди наиболее известных работ - Руслан и Людмила, Кавказский пленник, Цыганы, Медный всадник, Евгений Онегин, Борис Годунов, Пир во время кумы, Метель, Дубровский, Капитанская дочка и другие.
Произведения Пушкина - классика. Потому что все идеи от них реальны и велики. Мы можем назвать Пушкина самым важным русским писателем.
