Homeland is the place where we were born and live. We study, then we work.
Many people from different countries live on Earth. And for each of them their homeland.
Russia is my homeland. I love my Motherland because I feel comfortable here and everyone is happy. I also love my homeland for its vastness and beauty. She is the sickest country in the world.
And also, she is one of the most powerful countries on the planet, so I am proud of her. For me, Russia is the most dear place on the planet. I have been to other countries, but wherever I go, I am still drawn home, to my native country.
перевод
Родина – это место, где мы родились и живем. Учимся, потом работаем.
На Земле живет много людей из разных стран. И для каждого из них Родина своя.
Моя родина – Россия. Я люблю свою Родину потому, что здесь мне уютно и все рады. Еще я люблю свою родину за ее просторы и красоту. Она самая больная страна в мире.
А еще, она одна из самых сильных стран на планете, поэтому я горжусь ею. Россия для меня - самое родное место на планете. Я был в других странах, но куда бы я не уезжал, меня все равно тянет домой, в родную страну.
