In the painting “Bogatyrs” we can see three bogatyrs, who are the main characters of numerous Russian fairy tales.

In the foreground of the painting there is Dobrynya Nikitich, Ilya Muromets and Alyosha Popovich sitting astraddle.

In the middle, on the black horse there is Ilya Muromets. He is depicted looking into the distance. He is holding a spear and a shield in one hand and a club in the other hand. On the left, on the white horse there is Dobrynya Nikitich. We can see that he is approximately of the same age as Ilya. Dobrynya is keeping his hand on the sword as if ready to plunge into action. On the right, on the sorrel horse there is Alyosha Popovich. He is the youngest of all. They all are wearing hard hats and chain armours.

In the background of the painting there are vast expanses of hills covered with trees. Over the bogatyrs’ heads we can see clouds gathering.

На картине «Богатыри» изображены три богатыря, являющиеся главными героями многочисленных русских сказок.

На переднем плане картины мы видим Добрыню Никитича, Илью Муромца и Алешу Поповича, сидящими верхом на конях.

В центре на вороном коне сидит Илья Муромец. Он изображен, смотрящим вдаль. Он держит копье и щит в одной руке, и палицу – в другой. Слева на белом коне сидит Добрыня Никитич. Можно заметить, что он примерно того же возраста, что и Илья. Добрыня держит руку на мече, словно готовый ринуться в бой. Справа на гнедом коне сидит Алеша Попович. Он самый молодой из всех. На всех надеты защитные шлемы и кольчуги.

На заднем плане картины видны бескрайние просторы холмов, покрытых деревьями. Мы видим, как над головами богатырей сгущаются тучи.

Different products contain different nutrients. For example, we can get lots of vitamins eating fruit and vegetables. As for me, I like salads very much but I don’t like meat products. The food we choose to eat depends on many factors. First and the most important is the taste. If we like the taste of the product, we often eat it. The second factor is its nutritional value. If the product is healthy and useful for our body, we should add it to our ration. Other factors include culture and religion. Advertising also influences our choices a lot. When we see colourful ads on TV, we decide to try the product. For some people food is just a fuel for energy. For me, it’s a pleasure. I like almost everything, except meat products and spinach. My usual day includes three or four meals. For breakfast, I prefer a cup of tea with a cheese and ham sandwich. Sometimes I eat cereal with milk and drink a glass of orange juice. For lunch, I prefer salads from fresh vegetables and a soup. At about 5pm I have a cup of coffee with shortcake. For dinner, I like pasta or rice with vegetables. Sometimes I eat French fries and hamburgers but I know that it contains a lot of fat. That’s why I try to cut down on fast food. I also try to it less sugar and salt.
