As I grew up, I chose reading over sports and all of the wild games I used to like. Undoubtedly, I would now describe myself with the word naivety. I am very naïve and do not notice the most obvious things happening around me. I really hope that it is caused by the lack of experience and will eventually pass. In addition, I find myself a kind and caring person because I always want and agree to help people when needed. Furthermore, I really like reading. Sometimes I think that I read too much because I often mix fiction up with reality and in some cases it does not do me any good. As novels have such a great influence on me, I often misunderstand people in reality. Also, I quite often jump into conclusions. For example there was this awfully embarrassing situation that happened to me when I thought that General Tilney killed his wife. I was very ashamed of myself. To sum up, I lack of experience and am too keen on reading novels. This is what

The department found itself in a peculiar situation. On the one hand, it represented one of the most developed philological disciplines with a large personnel and material base; on the other hand, the factors that had made Russian studies one of the favoured philological disciplines in the past ceased to be significant. What followed was a perceptible drop in the number of applicants for the Russian teaching programme as Russian gradually lost its dominant position at primary and secondary schools. In terms of research, literary studies, which had appeared to be less productive for decades, prevailed over Russian linguistics. Part 1. Linguistics Linguistics is often said to deal with language as a universal human faculty. Nonetheless, scholarly reflection on language and linguistic inquiry strongly interact with society: on the one hand, societal developments determine the linguistic agenda to a greater extent than

Bright and intelligent, emotionally wise and very dedicated. We became good friends. I think I might have been her only friend. Her boy and husband had both died in a bike accident and she was still suffering from that trauma. We were both alone and we clung to each other. She worked part-time in the school library and when I skipped classes (which I did quite often) I could hide out there and have coffee and talks about English and books and life in general with her. She was the one who got me reading books in English. I've never stopped. During a few final years they also tried getting some Latin into our soon-out-of-school heads, but the project failed miserably. Firstly, Latin is tough. The grammar part is crazy, to my not so humble opinion. Secondly, we had uni students to teach us, and each and every one of them had different ideas how it should be done and how to interest a big bunch of overgrown teenagers – especially

She was really scandalous because she published her diaries. In her diaries she wrote about really personal things that most people would never let anyone else read if it were their life. She is also important because she wrote a lot about Hiiumaa. In a matter of fact she also lived on our island, Hiiumaa. One of her stories that talks about Hiiumaa is Hundimõrsija (The Wolf's bride). It's a werewolf story about 17th century Hiiumaa. The story is rich with archaic, romantic, colourful prose. She was also given an Estonian Red Cross Merit Medal. She was always considered as a smart woman. She also wrote Lydia Koidula's biography. Thanks to her we know a lot about Hiiumaa's history and nature. Next writer is called Marie Under who lived in 1883-1980. At the beginning she wrote poetry in German because she went to a German school, but when she became older she started writing in Estonian
Merde Actually By Stephen Clarke "Merde Actually" is written by Stephen Clarke, who is a British journalist and a novelist living in Paris. When he first arrived in Paris, he experienced a cultural shock and got inspired by it. He started to keep a diary of his experiences and decided to publish it as a novel when the Anglo-French relationships were at their worst during the Iraq War spring 2003. Therefore his novels (he has written three in this series) have become enormously popular all around the world, especially because they are partly true. Stephen Clarke himself still lives in Paris with his French girlfriend. This novel is considered to be seriously funny and a comedy with a message. "Merde Actually" has one main character whose name is Paul West, but there are also many other significant characters, that come from the previous book "A Year in the Merde"
personal blog linked to a course as an electronic portfolio, showing development over time' (Godwin-Jones, 2003, p. 13). Hence, blogs could be used to monitor and assess students' work as well as to encourage interaction among students and between teachers and students. The following sections outline the characteristics of blogs that make them useful tools for language teaching and learning (Yang, 2009, p. 13). Firstly, there has always been problem with the low students' motivation for reading and writing. But, studies have also shown that Internet access motivates many students to read extensively (Yang, 2009, pp. 1315). Students have an opportunity to read things in which they are interested and write things they truly wish to write, thereby determining their own texts in language education and combining text with conversations in a very personal and stimulating way. Apparently, the use of blogs might be a way to provide such motivation for reading in a language
colonisation to Englishmen back in the homeland. An example of this form of writing is John Smith's A True Relation of Virginia, which is widely recognized to be the first example of Am lit. The early years of colonisation produced a mass of utilitarian writings including biographies, accounts of voyages, diaries, sermons, pamphlets. Much of the material addressed the problems of Church and State. There were few examples of fiction, poetry or drama. Anne Bradstreet of Massachusetts published some lyrical poems of high literary quality (1650) and Edward Taylor, who was born in England but lived in Boston, wrote some poetry in the style of John Donne and the metaphysical poets. All 17 th cent Am writings were, both in content and form, similar to English lit of the same period. The great literary figures of the 18th cent were Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), Thomas Paine (1737-1809) and Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826).
(February 27, 1902--December 20, 1968) John Steinbeck III was one of the best-known and most widely read American writers of the 20th century. He wrote the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Grapes of Wrath, published in 1939 and the novella Of Mice and Men, published in 1937. In all, he wrote twenty-five books, including sixteen novels, six non-fiction books and several collections of short stories. In 1962 Steinbeck received the Nobel Prize for Literature. In his subsequent novels, Steinbeck found a more authentic voice by drawing upon direct memories of his life in California. Later he used real historical conditions and events in the first half of 20th century America, which he had experienced first-hand as a reporter. Steinbeck often populated his stories with struggling characters; his works examined the lives of the working class and migrant workers during the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression. His later body of work

Channel 5, + satellite programs CZ CT 1, CT 2, Nova, Prima, + satellite programs The Internet Very huge, world-wide, very fast, lots of information more than in TV, it costs a lot of money to have Internet today because you have to pay the provider (he has the entrance to Internet) and you have to pay the telephone if you use modem, hard link costs at least 10 000 crowns a month... But you can find there everything if you know how to find it. What I prefer I don't read newspaper very oftn because I have no time and I'm not able to take it as relaxation. I read it only if anything very important happens or if I found there anything what I am really interested in. I listen to the radio quite often desplite the music they are playing there, I can find a lot of information there because there are news every hour. I hate the big amount of adverts. I watch TV quite often some people say that it's tiring but I use it as relaxation
