Hello, Santa Claus! 
I want to tell you, that I was a very good girl in 2013 and I have earned the best gift from you. I would like to get new skates, which we call Snow Maiden, because the skates I have are too small and very old. Fulfill, please, my dream. I promise you that I will study hard, obey my parents and always be kind and polite.
Yours Ritta

Здравствуй, Дедушка Мороз! 
Хочу сказать тебе, я была очень хорошей девочкой в этом году и заслужила от тебя самый лучший подарок. Мне бы хотелось получить новые коньки-снегурки, потому что мои коньки мне уже малы и совсем старые. Выполни мое желание. Я обещаю тебе, что буду хорошо учиться, слушаться родителей и всегда быть доброй и вежливой.
Твоя Рита

I Want To Become A TeacherЯ хочу стать учителемFrom the very childhood I dreamt of becoming a teacher. Now, when I’m a high school student, I often think over my choice. I know exactly which university to enter after school graduation. The university that I chose has a philological faculty, where I can study to become a teacher of Russian Literature. My choice depends on many factors. I’ve always liked reading, especially the works of Russian classics. Every book that I found in my parents’ library was read. Every book that my teacher of Russian and Literature set as a home work was also read from cover to cover. At the university I hope to develop and expand my knowledge. When I become a teacher I’m willing to share this knowledge and love for literature with younger generation. Another reason, why I’d like to become a teacher is not connected with a subject itself. It has more to do with this profession and its positive sides. In my opinion, every good teacher teaches his or her students not only one subject, but also different life lessons. Not all children know what’s good and what’s bad. If I can help them to learn the basics of survival in this life, I’ll gladly do it. I understand that keeping the attention of twenty-five and more children during several lessons requires lots of energy, enthusiasm and dedication. I also understand that this profession doesn’t pay well and isn’t very prestigious nowadays. Nevertheless, when you love your job, it gives you lots of positive emotions. Being a teacher can be very rewarding. All the hard work is paid off with a content smile on a children’s face and their appreciation.
