Doctors, nurses and teachers make a great contribution to society. It certainly is. But for some reason, for example, famous players get much more. I don't agree with that. It's unfair. Doctors, admit, often save someone's life. Teachers teach the same future doctors, so that they can then get a medical education. I would add Fireman to the list of the most important professions. They certainly save the lives of thousands of people!! And it is not clear why, those who know how to kick the ball, get more of those who save your lives...

Московский зоопарк является одним из крупнейших и старейших зоопарков в России. Он появился в Москве в 1864 году и в нём тогда было 286 животных. Сегодня в зоопарке более 6000 различных животных: слоны и жирафы, белые медведи и бурые медведи, белки и лисы, олени и волки, львы и тигры. Первые здания зоопарка сначала были деревянными. Сейчас животные живут в каменных зданиях, когда холодно на улице. Московский зоопарк расположен в центре города. Когда вы попадаете туда, вы попадаете в мир животных. Существуют  две большие территории в зоопарке с высоким мостом между ними. В прудах зоопарка  можно увидеть красивых водоплавающих птиц. Работники зоопарка, ухаживающие за животными, кормят их, следят за их здоровьем, чистят их клетки. Они знают много о птицах и животных, и часто отвечают на вопросы посетителей. Московский зоопарк открыт во все времена года.(круглый год)  Дети и их родители любят приходить туда. В настоящее время планируется переместить Московский зоопарк на новую более обширную территорию.

There are more than 6,000 different animals in its rich collection now: elephants and giraffes, polar bears and brown bears l, squirrels and foxes, deer and wolves, lions and tigers. At first the zoo's buildings were wooden. Now animals live in stone buildings when it is cold outdoors. Moscow Zoo is situated in the centre of the city. When you get there, you are in the animal world. There are two large territories in the zoo with a high bridge between them. In the zoo ponds you can see beautiful water birds. The zoo keepers, workers who look after the animals, feed them, keep them healthy, clean their cages. They know a lot about birds and animals and often answer the visitors' questions. Moscow Zoo is open in all seasons. Children and their parents enjoy going there. Now there are plans to move Moscow Zoo to a new larger territory.
