The Great Melting Pot: Все разные, но в одном большом котле плавятся! 
Мозаика, чаша салата, калейдоскоп и плавильный котёл - метафоры, которыми часто называют Америку за то, что в стране слились воедино много разных национальностей и культур. Вместе они продолжают плавиться, и сливаться и объединяться. Название Melting Pot появилось ещё в 1908 году от названия одноимённой пьесы. И до сих пор так называют современное американское общество, так как и сами американцы считают, что  это единству всех живущих там народов разных национальностей, считать себя единой нацией -
народом одной страны, сохраняя в то же самое время и свою самобытность.
Но эта метафора не в состоянии отразить медленный, сложный и часто турбулентный процесс, посредством которого иммигранты различного происхождения и убеждений становятся частью американского общества и... преобразуют его.

Hi, Dasha

I'm writing from Egypt. I'm staying in the hotel "Cleopatra" in Cairo. It is very interesting here. I'm itching to tell you about everything!

It's very hot here. I'm spend a tot of time on the beach. I met Iren and George here whom we met in England. They send you greetings. On the beach we play volleyball and water polo. My friends and I are doing scuba diving and we are engaged in surfing. It's amazing! Yesterday I saw the piramids. Dusty tombs, magnificent  temples, treasuries, mysterious mumies shocked me! I learnt many interesting things in the history or Egypt. 

I bought some souvenirs, took many pictures to show you. I'm having a good time! It's a pity that you couldn't do with me. Take care.

Love,
Alex
