The tortoise and the hareThe hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. "I have never yet been beaten," said he, "when I put forth my full speed. I challenge anyone here to race with me."The tortoise said quietly, "I accept your challenge." "That is a good joke," said the hare. "I could dance around you all the way.""Keep your boasting until you've beaten," answered the tortoise. "Shall we race?" So a course was fixed and a start was made. The hare darted almost out of sight at once, but soon stopped and, to show his contempt for the tortoise, lay down to have a nap. The tortoise plodded on and plodded on, and when the hare awoke from his nap, he saw the tortoise nearing the finish line, and he could not catch up in time to save the race. Plodding wins the race.
Вернон Дэвис жил в Лондоне и держал в доме птиц-попугайчиков.Однажды он позвонил своему другу и попросил его накормить птиц так как он собирается в Уэльс на неделю. Он сказал, что оставил еду на кухне. Ключ от входной двери будет лежать в почтовом ящике квартиры его друга. Друг забыл о птицах до той ночи, когда должен был приехать Вкернон. Он также забыл о ключах от двери и попытался попасть в дом через окно. Он подумал о том, что бедные птицы уже мертвы. В результате, когда он лез через окно, полицейский осветил его фонариком и спросил, что он тут делает. "О, сказал он, я только собирался зайти и дать немного пищи птицам Мистера Дэвиса.
My most favourite sport - football. When I was small, very much liked to watch on TV football matches. Then I grew up, itself I began to drive a ball. At first this game attracted me with a beautiful ball, a bright form. A little later I seriously reflected, than I like soccer. Probably, that is very mobile game, one person, and the collective consisting of 11 people participates in it not. The victory of the team depends on game of everyone. This game tempers health, cultivates will, feeling of solidarity, helps to become hardy, strong. I wish all to fall in love with this sport. The person can choose in own way to a discretion any kind of sports. My choice football!
