    Ocean world: Whales

Whaes are the biggest animals in the sea. They are much bigger than any animals on land. The largest whales are more than 30 meters long.

They live in water, but they are not fish. They have warm blood and they breathe air through a hole in the top of their head. They can stay under water about an hour without breathing.

There are two kinds of whales. One kind has a big mouth, 4 meters in depth. It eats other large sea animals. This kind is called a killer whale. The other kind of whale is much larger than the killer whale. It has no teeth, but has rows of bone in his mouth. They have a very small throat. They cannot swallow anything larger than an apple.

 

Fast Food Restaurants

Fast Food Restaurants (FFR) are popular all over the world. In Britain also there are Fast Food Restaurants. The food we eat there is – hamburgers and cheeseburgers, a pie and a milkshake or coke.

These restaurants are not ordinary ones. There aren’t any waiters. You order your food  at the counter and  pay for it at the same time. You get your food in a bag or a box. There are no plates, knives, forks or spoons there. You eat your meal. Then you throw bags and boxes and cups away.

FFRs are very popular with young people. They can eat very quickly there. They can eat when they want : FFRs are open from 10 a.m. to 12p.m.

FFRs are very cheap.

It you come to Kazakhstan to relax, for entertainment, at weekends and on holidays you have a rich choice of places to relax.

In summer people can sunbathe at  Kapchagai  reservoir or climb mountains; go to Issyk –Kul lake which is in Kirghizstan or skate on Medeu. Some  people prefer playing tennis, swimming or strolling in gardens and parks; some like to relax at resorts located around Almaty.

Various festivals are constantly held in the republic featuring modern pop stars, classical music artists and ballet dancers. Numerous theatres, concert halls and cinemas offer entertainment.

Camping holidays

Camping holidays are very popular with young people. They are a cheap and easy way to see a country. But we should remember one important thing – we must take with us only the things we can carry in rucksack may get heavier.

We should start to pack earlier at least a day or two before our holiday.

Because sometimes many things are taken and when we get to the place we see that the most important things are forgotten – a match a tin- opener.

When we are travelling with friends some things can be shared and others must be taken by each  traveler.

Me and my family

Hi! My name is Daniel (though my friends call me Dan). I’m 14. I’ve got a Mum, a Dad, a brother, a sister, two aunts and two uncles, one grandfather and one grandmother who all live in Almaty. I’m the youngest. I think there are some advantages of being the  youngest. Sometimes my brother tries to boss me around but it’s OK because I can sit up late watching video with him or go off somewhere for the day with him.

My hobbies are sports and music. I would like to have a younger brother; I want to have someone to have fun with, someone to take out to football with me. My brother Mike doesn’t always share my sense of humour and he doesn’t have time to play chess with me. He spends too much time with his computer.

But  I confide in my elder brother like a friend. I have confided in him about many problems. He’s been through with  the same, so he understands.
