Vitus Jonassen Bering, also known as Ivan Ivanovich Bering, was born in August 1681, in Horsens, Denmark. He was a Danish map-maker and explorer in Russian service, and an officer in the Russian Navy. Bering is known for exploration of the Bering Strait and Alaska.
Vitus Bering was the captain of the First Kamchatka Expedition and the Great Northern Expedition. In July 1728 Bering set sail from the Siberian peninsula of Kamchatka and in August passed through the Bering Strait into the Arctic Ocean. In spite of the bad weather he concluded that Siberia and America were not joined.
During the reign of Empress Anna, in 1741, Bering's expidition mapped much of the Arctic coast of Siberia. Bering sailed into the Gulf of Alaska and explored the southwestern coast, the Alaska Peninsula, and the Aleutian Islands. He died in December, 1741, on Bering Island, near the Kamchatka Peninsula.
The Bering Strait, the Bering Sea, Bering Island, the Bering Glacier and the Bering Land Bridge were all named in his honor.

Витус Беринг был капитаном Первой Камчатской Экспедиции и Великой Северной Экспедиции. В июле 1728 года Беринг отплыл от Сибирского полуострова на Камчатку и в августе через Берингов пролив в Северный Ледовитый океан. Несмотря на плохую погоду, он пришел к выводу, что Сибирь и Америка не соединяются.
Во время правления императрицы Анны, в 1741 году, экспедиция Беринга нанесла на карту большую часть арктического побережья Сибири. Беринг отправился в залив Аляска и разведал юго-западное побережье, полуостров Аляска и Алеутские острова. Он умер в декабре 1741 года на острове Беринга, недалеко от Камчатского полуострова.
В его честь были названы Берингов пролив, Берингово море, остров Беринга, ледник Беринга и заповедник Беринг-Лэнд-Бридж.
Yesterday morning I ate a breakfast. And after that I decided to go to the cinema to see a premier of the famous film and offered my friend to join me. But he suggested to go to the swimming pool instead, because we swam in the pool only last month. I packed my clothes and the clean towel and my backback became heavy. We met at the bus station. He was riding a motorbike. He told me the lattest news and mentioned one scientist. That scientist was very intelligent and really amazing. He finished a huge project. He invented some high-technological device. My friend found that information in the internet.
There are many advantages in teacher's profession but I find more disadvantages. I reckon this profession is not for me and I would never become a teacher. Teacher's job is a really big physical and emotional pressure. I think teachers don't have so much time and they work all day long. There are good kids and bad kids at school who disrespect teachers. After school teachers check tests, prepare their classes etc. At the same time they have to develop children's personality, go to theatres, museums and to other places. There is not so much time left. There are many questions that have to be sold by teachers, for example discussions with parents who are not always kind towards teachers and they don't care if their children are disrespectful or talkative on a lesson. A teacher is always the one to blame and it is unfair. I am not trying to say that teacher's job is bad, there are advantages too but I am interested in other things so I wouldn't choose it as my future profession.
