Well, for me it's quite good practice (buy nothing day). Cause nowadays everyone can see plenty of everything. People buy some goods and items spending much money. I guess, most of often we buy unnecessary things.

Maybe you are interested in why I decided to choose this character. Well, there are some reasons. Firstly, I think everyone has heard of Harry Potter, so one can easily agree or disagree with my opinion. Secondly, he has good features of character as well as weaknesses and shortcomings, thus he is not a typical “prince charming” but a real-life character. Thirdly, I admire his personality with its all merits and drawbacks and, for some reason, I want to be like him. As for me, the most important quality in Harry is his ability to overcome problems and difficulties. He never gives up and always does what he thinks is better. He is devoted to his friends and loved ones. Yes, sometimes he gets in trouble because of that but finally he overcomes everything and becomes stronger and wiser. Another quality I like is his ability to solve unusual problems and find ways out of different situations thanks to his flexible mind. I’m sure it’s the most important quality in the modern world – the flexibility of mind. Of course we shouldn’t forget that Harry has a kind and loving heart, and it also helps him to fight evil and defeat it» - «Должно быть, Вам интересно, почему я решил выбрать именно этого персонажа. На это есть несколько причин. Во-первых, я думаю, что Гарри Поттер известен всем, и слушатели могут согласиться или не согласиться с моим мнением. Во-вторых, у него есть как сильные, так и слабые стороны, то есть, он не абстрактный идеальный герой, а похож на обычного живого человека. В-третьих, мне нравится его характер со всеми его сильными и слабыми сторонами, и я в какой-то степени хотел бы быть похожим на него. По-моему, самая лучшая черта в Гарри – это его умение преодолевать трудности. Он никогда не сдается и делает то, что считает правильным. Он верный и преданный друг, хотя и попадает из-за этого в неприятности. В конце концов, он преодолевает все препятствия, становясь сильнее и мудрее. Еще одно качество. Которое мне в нем нравится, это находить решения самых сложных проблем благодаря подвижному и живому уму. Мне кажется, что гибкость ума – одно из важнейших качеств в современном мире. Не нужно забывать и о том, что у Гарри – доброе и любящее сердце, которое юному волшебнику бороться со злом и побеждать его».
