TEXT LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF
Let me first introduce myself. My name is Anna. My surname or last name is Petrova. I was born on the 11th of October in Makeyevka, Donetsk region. It is situated in the South- East of Ukraine. Now I am a first- year student at the Faculty of Economics of the Makeyevka Institute of Economics and Humanities.
Now let me describe my appearance. I am tall and slim and have fair hair and blue eyes. My friends say I am pretty and easy- going. Unfortunately sometimes I am hot- headed a little. I love sports and music. I love to listen to the modern music and dance. I dance a lot and I hope I am good at it. I also love swimming.
I would like to tell you about my family. There are four of us. My fathers name is Ivan Nikolayevich. He is a mathematician by education but works at a bank now. My father is a very hard-working man. My mothers name is Natalya Sergeyevna. She works as a chief accountant at the hotel. She also has much work about the house after she gets home from work. But my sister and I always help her. Yes!

In May I finished school #16 in Makeyevka. I did well in all the subjects but my favourite subjects at school were Computer Science and Mathematics. I also enjoyed Geography lessons.
I am very interested in learning English because I always wanted to become an economist at some joint venture. That is why I think it is necessary to know at least one foreign language.

TEXT MY WORKING DAY
As you know, I am a first- year student of the Institute of Economics and Humanities. My parents live in Amvrosiyevka, and I study in Makeyevka, so I need some housing. There are two opportunities for me: I can live in a dormitory (a students hostel), or to rent a flat (an apartment).
I decided to rent a room. To make a rent smaller, I also decided to share my room with another student.
Now let me describe my usual working day. So, on weekdays I have to get up at 7:10. I dont have an alarm clock and usually my roommate wakes me up and my working day begins. I turn on the radio and do my morning exercises. I dont have a bath in the morning because I dont have enough time for it. I just take a cool shower (thats when I completely get up). After that I go back to our room and get dressed. Then I have breakfast. My roommate makes breakfast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I have to serve breakfast on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. I love to listen to the latest news on the radio while I am eating.
I leave home around eight and walk to the nearest bus stop. I live rather close to the institute and it usually takes me about ten minutes to get there by bus. Sometimes when the weather is fine and I have enough time I walk to the institute. It is very healthy to walk much.
My classes begin at 8:00 o clock in the morning and they end at 14.10. We have lectures in different subjects. As a rule we have three or four classes a day. Sometimes its very difficult to wait till they end.
Usually I dont miss my classes because I want to pass my exams successfully. But sometimes I do, especially when the weather is fine and classes are boring.
At 10.50 we have a big break. It lasts for 25 minutes. Thats my favourite time! Thats the time to share the latest news and to gossip. My friends and I prefer not to go to the canteen and we often have lunch in a small café not too far from the institute. During the working day we also have several short breaks that last for ten minutes.
Occasionally I have to stay at the institute till 4 or even 5 oclock in the evening because I go to the library to get ready for my practical classes or to write a report. As a rule I have no free time on weekdays. So by the end of the week I get very tired.
When we come home in the evening, we have supper together and share the news.
After supper we wash dishes, have coffee or tea and watch TV. I prefer old comedies and my roommate likes soap- operas or films about travelling. Sometimes we go for a walk or visit our friends. At about eleven at night I go to bed. I like to read something or listen to music before going to bed. Sometimes I fall asleep while I am reading

TEXT SHOPS
We do shopping very often. Sometimes it depends on the sum of money. But our clever housewives know how to economize on scarce resources.
Artyoma Street is one of the biggest and most popular shopping centres in Donetsk. Its nice shops and department stores attract people from all over the city and from the region as well.
Shops are open every day till 6 or 8 o clock. If you cant go shopping during the day you can do it in the shops which work at night.
There are different kinds of shops in Artyoma Street. There are clothes shops and shoe shops, book shops and self-service stores. But many people prefer a department store as it offers everything in one building.
Belyi Lebed is the largest department store in Artyoma Street. It has a lot of departments. The goods are rather expensive in it, but they are of excellent quality.
There are always crowds of people there, thats why we do our shopping in the store which is not far from our block of flats. There are fewer people there and there is a wide variety of goods in stock too. There are various departments in this store. They are a readymade clothes department, perfumery, haberdashery, footwear, drapery, souvenirs and childrens goods.
Last Saturday I decided to buy a suit, and I wanted anybody to have a look at it, but unfortunately I had to go to the fitting room alone. Luckily there was a mirror! So I tried the suit on, and it was too large for me and it wasnt fashionable enough. That is why I decided to try on a suit of another style a size smaller. It was just the thing! It fitted me fine! I found it great! And I bought it! Then I bought a cotton shirt and a tie to match the suit.
But on Sunday my wife dragged me to this shop again. She wanted me to buy a woollen skirt and an umbrella for her. Besides, she tried on a pair of shoes. The shoes were not too expensive and looked great. Unfortunately, they pinched a little, so she asked for another pair a size larger. Then we bought a raincoat which fitted my wife perfectly and was very much in the latest style. I also wanted to buy a shirt but the one I liked very much was too loud for me in my wifes opinion. I was at a loss which shirt to take then.
Next Saturday is my wifes birthday. I think Ill buy some piece of jewelry for her.

TEXT SHOPPING
Its Saturday today, and we are going to do the shopping this morning. We may do it in the grocery on the ground floor of our block of flats but we prefer to do it in the big supermarket in Zelyonaya Street. There is always a good choice of foodstuffs there.
Here is this supermarket. The first counter on the right is the bakery. There is always fresh bread, buns and rolls there. Next to this is the delicatessen and sausage counter, where one can buy different kinds of sausage, ham and salted pork. They sell milk, cream, cottage and hard cheese, butter and other diary produce at the dairy counter. Then comes fruit and vegetables counter, the meat counter, the fish counter, the dry grocery in which one can buy various cereals, spices, tea, coffee and oil. The confectionary is the cafeteria, where one may have a cup of coffee, a glass of juice with pies or cakes. They sell sweets, candies and bars of chocolate there too.
Now we are choosing some apples and lemons. Yesterday in our greengrocers we bought oranges and grapefruits. We are not going to buy any meat in this shop, because last Friday we bought some pork in the butchers. I think, later well buy potatoes and onions, because our bags are heavy enough already. Next time I am going to buy herring and smoked fish.
You see, there is always a wide selection of foodstuffs in our supermarket. By the by, two minutes ago I met my neighbour there. He carried a kilo of sausage, a package of rice, a bottle of oil, a jar of cream, a packet of sugar and a loaf of bread in his bag. He waited for his wife. She forgot to buy some poultry.
