The Place Where I Live - Место, где я живу.
I live in the southern part of Russia in the city of Anapa. It is a well-known and attractive sea resort in Krasnodar region. Thousands of people visit our town every summer. Some of them want to relax on the beaches of the the Black Sea, others want to have balneal therapy in local sanatoria. There are also people who come in Anapa to participate in various festivals or sports competitions. Anapa is an active and rapidly developing city. Every year there are numerous festivals in the field of music, cinema and arts. The same can be said about sport. Numerous competitions, mostly connected with water sports, are organized annually. They are organized for example, in yachting, surfing, boating, etc. I’m proud to be living here. It is one of the most beautiful cities on the Russian coast of the Black Sea. The beaches are mostly sandy, so they are ideal for children of all ages. When I have free time, I go swimming with my family or friends. Apart from that, we have several well-equipped sports grounds, where we can play basketball, tennis, football or just do morning exercises or work out. On the whole, the city is not big. My school is situated in the neighborhood and it takes five minutes to get there. Our relatives also live near us, just in a walking distance. I know that the population of Anapa is a bit over than fifty-eight thousand people. Compared to other Russian cities, it is certainly rather small. Nevertheless, in my opinion it is the best place to live in. It is full of historic monuments and attractions, including the Gates of Turkish fortress, the Lighthouse, the Church of St. Onuphrius. However, in my opinion, the best thing about Anapa is its kind and friendly people.
- Hello, Olga!
- Hey, Denise! Why are you upset?
- Well, I'm not upset. I dreamt of a terrible dream!
- Wow! Tell me!
- I had a dream that I was standing on the edge of a steep cliff and...
- And, so what?
- And then I fell down!
- Ugh! You are so stupid. That just means that you are growing.
- Really?
- Of course. They say when a man in his dreams falls down, he just grows.
- Oh! And I am so scared. Where ever I go I think what my dream means...
- Здравствуй, Ольга!
- Привет, Дениза! Почему ты так расстроена?
- Ну, я не расстроиyf. Мне приснился страшный сон!
- Ух ты! Расскажи мне!
- Мне приснилось, что я стою на краю отвесной скалы и ...
- Ну и что с того?
- А потом я просто упала вниз!
- О! Ты действительно такая глупая. Это просто означает, что ты растешь.
- В самом деле?
- Конечно. Говорят, когда человек во сне падает, он растёт.
- О! А мне действительно было страшно. Куда бы я ни пошла, я думаю, что же значит мой сон...
