Перевидите текст, : my school is twinned with an international school in west africa. we are swapping work projects with african children. we want to learn the things that african children learn and what life in africa is like .i have got a great pen friend at this school. her name is shannen. we communicate by e-mail. i've learnt a lot of interesting things from shannen: about the festivals her family celebrates, about their traditions and everyday life. her language, religion and lifestyle are absolutely different but we understand each other very well. it is really important to have a friend in another country. it helps to learn more about other cultures and traditions.

Моя школа поддерживает отношения с интернациональной школой в Западной Африке. Мы обмениваемся рабочими проектами с африканскими детьми. Мы хотим узнать какие вещи учат африканские дети, и узнать о том, какая жизнь в Африке. У меня есть прекрасная подруга по переписке из той школы. Её имя Шеннон. Мы общаемся через e-mail (электронную почту). Я узнал много интересных вещей от Шеннон: о праздниках, которые празднует её семья, об их традициях и повседневной жизни. Её язык, традиции образ жизни абсолютно другие, но мы понимаем друг друга очень хорошо. Действительно важно иметь друга в другой стране. Это больше узнавать о чужих культурах и традициях.

1. First of all I think about such basical things as fire, wheels, paper, money - what would our life be without this things? Thay are really breakthroughs, because have changed the life of the mankind.
2. I regard electricity, telegraph, antibiotics, steam-engine, typography and plastics as probably the most important. We can consider a lot of revolutionary technologies to be the consequences of these inventions. 
3. I admire scientific discoveries of the ancient greeks, they managed to understand that the universe consists of particles, isn't it amazing? 
4. Bioengineering, discoveries in medicine, human-like robots, Curiosity rover. All these marvels of the modern science are discovering and improving the life of a man like biological being and the life of a man as a researcher. 
5. Yes, of course. Charles Darwin, an outstanding British scientist, the father of evolution theory; Dmitry Mendeleev, Russian god of chemistry, who has formulated the periodic law; Nikola Tesla,  great American inventor and theoretician of the alternating current. 
6. I think that high technologies are already in use, and new technologies are in testing. High technologies exist as the mixture of many sciences united for the sake of technological breakthrough, and new technologies are supposed to be revolutionary or improved methods of receiving what is already received. 
7. The work of a scientist is a routine with many experiments to be patiently carried out again and again, so it might seem dull. But of course it is so exiting to overcome nature or receive the result desired. 
8. First of all, a scientist sees and understands the existing problem. Then he tries to solve it, or realize and formulate scientific laws, or explain the laws of nature and space.  For example, Russian linguist Andrey Zaliznyak has carried out many archaeological expeditions to study the birch scrolls of Novgorod, and has made important linguistic discoveries. 
9. I think, I would choose chemistry or biology, because they have very practical importance and are of current interest nowadays.
