New Year is cooming! It is very amazing holiday. It is known that on this event everyone puts Christmas tree in house. Traditionally on this holiday people decorate Christmas tree with different toys.My family always start from the head of this tree. My father puts there a star that our Grand father gave to us. These thing is very dear to us. Then I put garland around the Christmas tree. After that my mother is decorating this tree with old toys that her mom gave. And we put some gifts under the Christmas tree to make interior more wonderful. I know that everyone love New Year because of gifts and don't say that I'm wrong! Happy New Year!
Paintings by Monet, Rembrandt, and Degas (a) have been stolen from the Boston Museum.
Yesterday afternoon two thieves wearing police uniforms arrived at the museum and asked the guard (b) (to show) them Monet’s paintings. They said that they (c) (had received) a telephone call at the police station that morning telling them that the paintings were in danger. The guard immediately let them (d) (to see) the paintings. The thieves told him (e) (to turn off) the alarm system and then suddenly they made him (f) (lie) on the ground and they tied his arms and legs. They worked very quickly and carefully and when they (g) (had collected) the best paintings they (h) (left) the museum quietly and calmly through the front door. The director of the museum, Karen Haas said: ‘The thieves (i) (have taken) our best pictures. I (j) (have worked/have been working) here for 12 years and I can’t believe that this (k) (has happened). How did they manage (l) (to take) them so easily? They might (m) (try) (n) (to sell) them to an art collector in Europe, but this will be difficult because the paintings are so well known. If they (o) (were not be) so well known, it would (p) (be) easier (q) (to sell) them. We have decided (r) (to employ) more guards, and a new alarm system (s) has already (been put) in. I’m sure the police will find the thieves and our paintings, but they think it might (t) (take) a long time.’
Happy New Year!
