40 нужно пересказать текст first rules for travellers money: take one fourth more than your estimated expenses, and a good supply of small change. geography: acquaint yourself with the geography of the route and region of travel. if possible, to have only one piece of luggage luggage: arrange,
if possible, to have only one piece of luggage to look after. dress: better be too hot for two or three hours at noon than be cold for the rest of the twenty-four. time: be at the place of starting fifteen minutes before time, thus allowing for unexpected detention by the way. breakfast: do not
begin a day's travel before breakfast, even if it has to be eaten at daybreak. dinner or supper can be more easily ignored than a good breakfast. manners: respect yourself by demonstrating the manners of a gentleman or lady, and then you will receive the respect of others. language: a good
knowledge of the language of the country you are to visit is an immense help and will make the journey more agreeable. climate: no special considerations may be necessary when traveling to moderate climates or on short journeys, but for longer journeys and to tropical climates it is important to
have tropical clothes as part of your hand luggage. the traveller's comfort depends on his dress being suitable to the climate he is in. packing: always allow ample time for packing. see to it that every piece of luggage is properly labelled and that all labels previously used are removed. the
principal point to remember in packing is to leave the things you are most likely to require, during the journey or on arrival until last. if you carry a handbag, small portmanteau or hold-all, they should be put in these. trains: this new mode of transport should not be feared. it is safer to ride
on the railroad than to walk through the streets. it is unwritten law that the passengers occupying the window seats facing the engine have "charge" of the windows. there is no reason why you would not ask one of the window seat passengers if he would object to a window being opened. make-up: it is
not a correct thing to do to make up while travelling. many girls prefer not to show to openly how much the rosy of their cheeks owes to art instead of nature. it's not right for young men to use a comb or nail-file in public places. lost: if you are lost, use your watch. point the hour to the sun
and the south is exactly half way between the hour and the figure 12 on the watch. for instance, suppose it is 4 o'clock, point the hand indicating 4 to the sun and 2 on the watch will be exactly south. journal: many experienced voyagers keep a journal while they are travelling. a well kept journal
acts as a remembrancer for years to come. be sure to pack inks, nibs, blotters and note pads.
How are the things going on? Did something new happen in your life? Having received your letter, I wanted to answer it immediately but I was working a lot during the last two weeks. So I was pressed for time and did not manage to carry out my intentions.
In my country spring has already set. It is quite warm and really sunny all days long. Being at work I always imagine myself strolling down some parks. I wish you could join me! It would be funny! Some days ago my friend advised me to read a very interesting book. I did it and I would like you to know this author. Are you ready to read good literature?
Tell me more about your work and free time. Are you satisfied with all this? What are your plans for this summer? Maybe we will be able to meet one day?
Truly yours,
Что такое успех? Для кого-то это дорогие машины, шикарный дом, для кого-то большая семья или прекрасная работа. В первую очередь успех – это не конечная цель, это постоянный процесс. Это совокупность некоторых признаков, которые приносят в вашу жизнь приятные эмоции и счастье. Так получается, что успех это счастье? Но ведь не все успешные люди являются счастливыми в жизни. Я считаю, что это неразрывные и взаимодополняемые понятия. Тогда нужно рассматривать их вместе. Счастье у каждого свое, тогда и успех будет индивидуален. Для одних людей успех стоит в хорошей зарплате, при которой не нужно думать о том, как прожить следующий месяц и где достать деньги. Для других это присутствие других материальных благ, вроде коттеджа или собственной квартиры. Но чем больше человек может позволить себе, тем стремительнее растут его запросы. Это еще раз доказывает, что полного успеха достигнуть невозможно: людям всегда будет мало. Пусть у него будет столько денег, сколько ему нужно - ему можно называть успешным? Наверное, да. А можно ли его назвать счастливым? Вряд ли. Получается, это и есть ключ к успеху.
