I have got a nice room. In my room, you can see a large bed. A wardrobe is to the left of the bed. Near the wardrobe, there is a desk. On the desk, there is a computer, a table lamp, some pens, pencils and books. Opposite the desk, there is a large bookcase full of books. Opposite the door, you can see a bedside table with a TV-set on it. A clock and some pictures hang on the walls of my room. There is a nice large carpet on the floor. I like my room.
Моя комната
У меня хорошая комната. В моей комнате, вы можете увидеть большую кровать. Шкаф стоит слева от кровати. Рядом со шкафом есть письменный стол. На столе компьютер, настольная лампа, несколько ручек, карандашей и книг. Напротив стола стоит большой книжный шкаф, полный книг. Напротив двери, вы можете увидеть, тумбочку с телевизором на ней. Часы и несколько картин висят на стенах моей комнаты. На полу красивый большой ковер. Мне нравится моя комната.
The mery-go-round of college life is something that one never forgets. It's a fascinating, fantastic, fabulous experience, irrespective of the fact whether one is afull-time or a part-time student.
Who can forget the first day at the university when one turns from an applicant who has passed entrance exams into a first-year student? I did it! I entered, I got in to the university! A solemn ceremony in front of the university building and serious people making speeches. Hey, lad, do you happen to know who they are? Who? The rector, vice-rectors, deans, subdeans... and what about those ladies? Heads of departments and senior lecturers? Okay. Some of them must be professors, some — associate or assistant professors, but, of course, all of them have high academic degrees. And where are our lecturers and tutors?Oh, how nice...
The monitors hand out student membership cards, student record books and library cards — one feels like a real person. First celebrations and then days of hard work. So many classes, so many new subjects to put on the timetable! The curriculum seems to be developed especially for geniuses. Lectures, seminars and tutorials. Home preparations; a real avalanche of homeworks.
If one can not cope with the work load of college he or she immediately starts lagging behind. It is easier to keep pace with the programme than to catch up with it later. Everyone tries hard to be, or at least to look, diligent. First tests and examination sessions. The first successes and first failures: "I have passed!" or "He has not given me a pass!" Tears and smiles. And a long-awaited vacation.
The merry-go-round runs faster. Assignments, written reproductions, compositions, synopses, papers. Translations checked up and marked. "Professor, I have never played truant, I had a good excuse for missing classes". Works handed in and handed out. Reading up for exams. "No, professor, I have never cheated — no cribs. I just crammed".
Junior students become senior. Still all of them are one family — undergraduates. Students' parties in the students' clab. Meeting people and parting with people. You know, Nora is going to be expelled and Dora is going to graduate with honours. Yearly essays, graduation dissertations, finals...
What? A teacher's certificate? You mean, I've got a degree in English? I am happy! It is over! It is over... Is it over? Oh, no...
A postgraduate course, a thesis, an oral, and a degree in Philology. The first of September. Where are the students of the faculty of foreign languages? Is it the English department? oh nice it...
