1. My daily routine.

I’m a student of a daily form of studying, so I have to be an early-riser. I get up at 7 o’clock and go to bathroom. I wash my face and clean my teeth, and then I have a breakfast and go to the institute. It takes me 20 minutes to get. Usually I have 3 of 4 lessons, for example, math, physics and English. Two or three times a week I go to a physical culture. And then I return home for dinner and sometimes I sleep for two hours if I’m very tired. In the evening I do my homework or go for a walk with my friends or watch film. Then I have a supper or a cup of tea. Then I usually read a book or listen to music. Then I go to bed. I need to have an early night if I don’t want to oversleep next morning. But at weekends I can stay up late and fall asleep when I want.

 

 

Comparing of two careers.

Let’s compare careers of 2 men, Alexander and Roman. First of them founded his own commercial firm at 80’s and second of them graduated from technical institute, but he was offered a job in a factory in the most prestige laboratory, and firstly he was more satisfied with his work later. Alexander was more exhausted because some time after his firm was closed according to new decrees. He had to dodge and sometimes to lie to get a license. Roman had more free time and his job looked safer than Alexander’s one. But later the factory became less successful then before and his salary became much lower than of Alexander’s. On the other hand, Roman was less tired of his work because Alexander had to work long hours and even do overwork, but later he became a very successful businessman. So, finally, Alexander is richer and happier than Roman. We can see that sometimes good fortune is more important than education.

 

3. Advantages and disadvantages of being “right-handed”, “left-handed” and ambidextrous.

Is it comfortable to be a “left-handed” person? On the other hand, it is not, because many of domestic things are oriented on right-handed people. Usually, all switches and handles are disposed on the right side of domestic devices and it’s uncomfortable to operate them by left hand. It’s impossible to cut with scissors by left hand. Some details of clothes are also oriented on the “right-handed”, for example, zippers or inside pockets. And it’s difficult to write with left hand because we do this from left to the write. It’s uncomfortable to enter the metro because of disposition of turnstiles. But on the other hand, sometimes it’s good to be “left-handed’. For example, it’s more comfortable to open the washing machine with left hand. It’s very advantageous to be “left-handed” in some kinds of sports, for example, in boxing or in baseball. And as for me, I would like to be an “ambidextrous”. It’s very comfortable, for example, if you need to write a lot: when right hand is tired, you can write with left one.
