There are a lot of rules in schools, and they are not always the same in all countries. For example: in most schools you must wear a uniform, be on time, and respect your teachers and classmates. But sometimes there are some strange rules that are very hard to follow. What are the rules in your school?
Hi! My Name is Michael, I'm thirteen years old and I live in London. We must follow many rules in our school and they are quite tough. We mustn't run in the corridors, we mustn't chew gum in the school. We mustn't take our smartphones to school. We must arrive on time at school. We should read a lot of books and do our homework. Some of us may not like these rules but, in my opinion we need to follow the rules because they help us to make progress.
Hi! My Name is Assel, I'm twelve years old and I live in Almaty, we also have a lot of rules to follow. We should listen to our teachers in our school and we should be polite. We mustn't be late for school. We mustn't use mobile phones and other electronic equipment during our lessons. We need to keep our classrooms clean and tidy. Also we must raise our hand to speak up. I think the rules are important because they help us to have everything in order.
By 6pm I had done my homework (К 6 вечера я сделал домашку). It rained, I went outside and realized that I had forgotten the umbrella (Лил дождь, я вышел на улицу и понял, что забыл зонтик). I hadn't drunk a half cup of the milk before I understood that it was wicked (Я не выпил и половины стакана молока, как понял, что оно прокисло). Had you thought on your behavior? (Ты подумал над своим поведением?). Where had you studied before you moved into our school? (Где ты учился, прежде чем перешёл в нашу школу?). After the teacher had gone out the classroom, pupils began to yell (После того, как учитель вышел из класса, ученики начали орать). By that time I had been far away from here already (К этому времени я уже был далеко отсюда). I want to get a lot of unforgettable moments before I had graduated school (Я хочу получить много незабываемых моментов перед тем, как закончу школу). I was 7 years old when I had lost my favorite childly toe (Мне было 7, когда я потерял любимую игрушку детства). Before my arriving in the school I had eaten my favorite food for a good day surely (Перед пребыванием в школу, я конечно же ем любимую еду для хорошего дня).
