I had a wonderful winter vacation. I love the new year, this holiday bustle, various Christmas movies that lift the mood. 
Winter holidays began on 29 December. That day at school was new year's holiday.
We diligently prepared for this holiday. Rehearsed every day until the evening of the dance. In class we had a tea party. We brought a lot of sweet that day. Then we had a disco. I really had a good this last school day before the holidays.

Winter holidays are New year. Met a holiday the whole family. In the evening, pulled a large table and decorated a Christmas tree. In 12 hours we all went outside, where he launched fireworks and lit sparklers.

On other days I'd go out with friends, skating and skiing. Christmas Came. I went to the village to the grandmother and grandfather. There went caroling with his girlfriend. We were given a lot of candy and money. 
The holidays have ended, and I still had to do homework, we asked. The weather these days has been great. I love when it's cold and lots of snow.
I really liked these winter holidays.

If you go to school or university, you are faced with a number of exams. Basically, these exams are supposed to test your knowledge and skills. Also, they may motivate you to study harder.

In my opinion, it is really the case that exams motivate students to study harder. Firstly, exams are often a pass to a higher level of education. If you get good marks in examinations, you are admitted to further education. If you fail, you do not get the admittion. So, you make every effort to keep the right to study further. Secondly, exams are a good way to assess your learning efficiency and detect possible gaps in your knowledge. Bad marks mean that your knowledge is flawed and you need to be more disciplined and work harder to do away with the flaws.

But there are people who believe that examinations do not give real motivation to a student. They say that being a good student with excellent marks does not guarantee future prosperity.

Nevertheless, I cannot assent to the foregoing opinion, because being a good student is the beginning of being a good employee or worker who can earn a good living. Highly qualified professionals are always in great demand in any business sector.

In conclusion, exams play an important part in our life, although any exam is a kind of pain. But the saying is: no pain, no gain!
