Birthday is a very wonderful day. Everybody likes to celebrate it. It is a good opportunity to spend time with friends, parents, relatives.
I was born on the 9 December.In the morning on my birthday my parents lay the presents near my bed. So the first thing I see when I open my eyes is my presents. My Mom and Daddy and my little brother come to my room to congratulate me and to sing "Happy Birthday".
Usually we hold my birthday party in the evening. Once we went to a cafe to celebrate my birthday, but usually we celebrate it at home. We clean the house the day before birthday. In the morning of birthday party day my father goes shopping and buys everything we need.
My mother bakes a cake or pie. By the evening food is cooked, the table is laid. We put on evening suits and dresses and wait for the guests. The flat looks nice and cosy. I am always very glad to meet my guests. I like to get flowers and presents. Mom gives me the telegram from my aunt.
We have an abundant dinner on this day. Mom brings in the birthday cake. I blow the candles out. We dance and sing songs, play games and laugh, joke, tell funny stories. I think that my birthday is one of the best days in a year.

Many people learn foreign languages, as they know how important it is in the modern world. Some learn English, other French and German. There are people who like learning rare or extinct languages, such as Latin, Sanskrit, Anglo-Saxon, Hebrew. The question is why they are doing it. One great German writer has once said: “He who knows no foreign language doesn’t know his own”. Those, who study languages, they understand that it makes them smarter, broadens their mind and gives basic knowledge of linguistic structure. Moreover, psychological studies have shown that people who study foreign languages on regular basis have a better memory, don’t suffer Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. They become more observant and decisive. And, it goes without saying that these people have better communicational skills. From the practical point of view, people learn foreign languages to get a better job, to emigrate, to communicate with foreign friends and relatives, to travel and to study abroad, to conduct a certain research, to learn more about different cultures. In my opinion, if you know at least one foreign language, you can learn more about the customs and traditions of one new country. Most people learn English nowadays, as it is the international language of commerce, travelling, medicine, modern technology and science. However, other European or Asian languages are also worth exploring. The more languages you know, the more friends around the globe you have.
Перевод...многие люди изучают иностранные языки, так как знают, насколько это важно в современном мире. Некоторые изучают английский, французский и немецкий. Есть люди, которые любят изучать редкие или вымершие языки, такие как латынь, санскрит, Англосаксонский, иврит. Вопрос в том, почему они это делают. Один великий немецкий писатель однажды сказал:”тот, кто не знает иностранного языка, не знает своего". Те, кто изучает языки, понимают, что это делает их умнее, расширяет их кругозор и дает базовые знания о языковой структуре. Более того, психологические исследования показали, что люди, изучающие иностранные языки на регулярной основе, имеют лучшую память, не страдают болезнью Альцгеймера или деменцией. Они становятся более наблюдательными и решительными. И, само собой разумеется, что эти люди имеют лучшие коммуникативные навыки. С практической точки зрения, люди изучают иностранные языки, чтобы получить лучшую работу, эмигрировать, общаться с иностранными друзьями и родственниками, путешествовать и учиться за рубежом, проводить определенные исследования, узнавать больше о разных культурах. На мой взгляд, если вы знаете хотя бы один иностранный язык, вы можете узнать больше об обычаях и традициях одной новой страны. Большинство людей изучают английский язык сегодня, так как это международный язык торговли, путешествий, медицины, современных технологий и науки. Однако стоит изучить и другие европейские или Азиатские языки. Чем больше языков вы знаете, тем больше у Вас друзей по всему миру.
