It's Saturday night, and Laura 1) is going to а party with some friends. 2) Laura's mother and father 3) are watching TV when she says goodbye to them. "l'm going to Sam's party. I 4) shall not be Iate," she says. ''You can't go out 5) dressed like that!" yells Laura's dad. ''You 6) look ridiculous." Laura looks down at her carefully 7) chosen outfit. She's wearing а tight red top, а silver mini skirt and black boots with 15-centimetre heels. She 8) has coloured her hair bright red and she is wearing 9) tinted glasses. Laura 10) thinks she looks great! Fashion 11) is always a matter of dispute. Young people express 12) themselves through fashion, and extreme fashion is a way 13) to rebel.
In the 1960s young people started wearing mini skirts, bell-bottomed pants and flower patterns. Many young people 14) became hippies, and рагents panicked when their teenage sons 15) grew their hair long.
Then came the decade of glamorous fashion. Gold and silver pants and tiny tight tops 16) became very popular in the 70s. Disco-goers 17) wore high-heeled shoes and boots that were almost impossible to walk in. Punk-rock also raised 18) its ugly head during the 70s. Punks had crazy Mohawk haircuts and wоге dirty 19) clothes with holes in them. During the 90s, styles from the 60s and 70s came back. Midriffs were bare and body piercing came into fashion. Now that we 20) have entered the 21) twenty-first century (or the 'naughties'), you can wear whatever you like!
Overall, I think nowadays new fashions 22) are replacing traditional ones, but I also think we should also try 23) to preserve typical traditional clothing. lt's part of our culture and heritage.
Hobby is an activity done regularly in one's leisure time for pleasure and relaxing. It gives one joy and happiness. Many people have different hobbies so do I have one. I like reading books. I have always showed passion to reading. The first book I have ever read was "Harry Potter". It impressed me so much that I became a big fan of the book and its author. I liked the plot of the book as well as the characters. Moreover, I am interested in Russian classic literature. That is why I like literature classes since we study a lot of classic writers like Pushkin, Lermontov and Tolstoy. I like Lermontov the most, especially his poems.
like reading a lot since this hobby brings me a lot of joy and happiness.
