We have many interesting subjects at school, among them there are Russian, History, Math, Russian Literature, and many others, but my favourite is English. It is my favorite because I never have difficulty with it and always get good marks in tests. Other subjects like History and Geography require a lot of memory work. Remembering dates and other facts is hard work for me compared with the ease and simplicity of learning English. While English is simple to me, some of my friends have great difficulty with it. I do not really understand why. They get stuck with simple texts and often give up. So I help them out when I can.
I like read English books in the original, listen songs, try to translate some stories from newspapers from English into Russian. I'm working hard at my pronunciation as well. Sometimes I speak English with my friends after classes for fun and at the same time we practice our English.
У нас есть много интересных предметов в школе, среди них русский, история, математика, русская литература, и многие другие, но мой любимый английский. Это мой любимый, потому что я никогда не испытывают трудности с ним и всегда получаю хорошие оценки в тестах. Другие предметы, как история и география требуют много работы памяти. Вспоминать даты и другие факты это тяжелая работа для меня по сравнению с легкостью и простотой изучения английского языка. В то время как английский прост мне, у некоторых из моих друзей есть большие трудности с ним. Я действительно не понимаю, почему. Они застревают на простых текстах и часто сдаются. Так что я им когда я могу.
Мне нравится читать английские книги в оригинале, слушать песни, стараюсь перевести истории из газет с английского на русский. Я работаю усердно над моим произношением также. Иногда я говорю по-английски с моими друзьями после занятий, ради шутки и в то же время мы тренируем наш английский.
Jeans history For one and a half centuries of the existence jeans stopped being simply cheap working uniform; today it not only convenient casual clothes for people of any age and a floor, but also an inspiration subject for many fashionable designers. The background of modern jeans traces the roots back on several centuries ago, to Europe. It is considered that the word "jeans" (jean) went from the name of the city of Genoa where local seamen with pleasure wore strong cotton trousers; later trousers from this material began to make in large numbers in England. The word "denim" designating stronger denim came from France where in the sixteenth century used fabric from the city to Them which takdeny, and was called as "serge de Nimes" (denim); silk and wool were its part. The American weavers from local cotton made the fabric, very similar to a denim differing in high wear resistance; gradually cotton the shortcoming in which of the country wasn't, managed to force out other components from composition of fabric. Initially from jeans sewed easier clothes, and the denim was used for production of working clothes where the increased durability was required. Most of slaves on plantations wore similar trousers from cotton, but, probably, it isn't absolutely correct to call them jeans; to emergence of that today we call "jeans", the world is obliged to the young German immigrant by the name of Livay Strauss. Initially Strauss which arrived to California at the height of the Gold-rush thought to earn on sale of fabric for tents and vehicles, but it appeared that gold diggers much more needed usual working trousers. Then the young German decided to sew trousers which soon began to have success in gold prospectors from the material which was available for him. Name of one more person, whose contribution to creation of jeans it is also very considerable, it is known slightly less, than the industrialist Strauss, however his role in the history of one of the products, most popular in the world, is also great is a tailor from Nevada Jacob Davies; in spite of the fact that Strauss began business on production and sale of trousers independently, cooperation with Davies provided significant increase in sales and prompt growth of the company. Arrived to the USA from Latvia, Davies irrespective of Strauss resolved an important issue as at production of trousers to provide the sufficient durability of pockets, namely thought up to fasten the right places with metal rivets. The idea promised to make huge profit, but, of course, provided that anybody, except Davies, couldn't use it. To secure itself against similar disorders, the inventor should take out the patent, but at it it wasn't banal on it money (the demanded sum of sixty eight dollars was available to not everyone one and a half centuries ago). Then Davies decided to offer Strauss cooperation which the enterprising businessman couldn't refuse.
