I study at the International School now. In my class there are a lot of students from different countries. Now I know a lot of things about how people in different countries live. When people visit a foreign country, they don’t often think about what they can and what they can’t do there. But it’s very important, because differences in culture very often can become the reason for problems if you don’t know about them. For example, people in many countries often give flowers as a present for different events, like birthday, dating, weddings and many others. But be careful! Some flowers are not a good present. In Russia and Kyrgyzstan, carnations are the symbol of Victory Day. In Germany and Italy people never present carnations, because they are the symbol of death there.
I have got a cat. Her name is Matilda. She is quite old for a cat. She is eleven years old. Matilda is very fluffy. Her back is black and her belly and chest are white. She also has a black muzzle with long white whiskers. Her legs and paws are white. Matilda has big eyes. Her eyes are light green, but they become yellow in bright sunlight. She has got big black ears and a small pink noseAs any other cat Matilda loves sleeping, eating and playing. Her favourite places are an armchair in the living room and a windowsill in my parents’ bedroom. Matilda also likes lying on my desk and especially on the computer keyboard!
Her favourite food is meat and boiled fish. She also likes sour cream, soft cheese and ham. Sometimes we buy cat food and cat grass for her. She has a lot of cat toys to play with. She enjoys hunting flies, spiders and sunbeams.
My mother found Matilda in our street and brought her home. The cat became a real friend for me. We grew up together. When I was a little child, we used to play hide-and-seek and catch-up.
She often sits on my lap and purrs. She is always near me when I am sad or ill. I love my cat.
