What do you like to do while you are on holidays ?

ответ Что ты любишь делать в то время, когда ты на каникулах?

Well, when i on the holidays i like long sleeping and laying on the bed. To cook different desserts, for example, pancakes and cakes. I to do room, sweep the floor and wash it. I meet with my friends, we go for a walk to park or we can go to cafe( restaurant ) and speak about our days. What interesting happened in our daily days.

At last the winter holidays came! I was very happy!   I didn't have  to get up early in the morning and run to school. I could stay in the bed till midday. But I didn't want to sleep. There were a lot of things to do. The weather was fine so my friends and I went to the skating- rink almost every day. It was fun! Then I spent a week in the country where my grandfather and grandmother lived. It was great. I drank milk and eat a lot of tasty food which my granny prepared for me. I have many friends in this village because I go there every holidays. We went to the forest to ski, we made snowmen and played snowballs. We even played hockey! But the winter holidays were over and I returned to the city again.  I liked my holidays very much.  

Наконец наступили зимние каникулы! Я был очень счастлив!  Я не должен был вставать рано утром и бежать в школу. Я мог  оставаться в постели до полудня. Но я не хотел спать. Было так много дел. Погода была хорошая, так что мои друзья и я ходили на каток почти каждый день. Это было весело! Затем я провел неделю в деревне, где  живут мои дедушка и бабушка . Это было здорово. Я пил молоко и ел много вкусной пищи, которую моя бабушка готовила для меня. У меня много друзей в этой деревне, потому что я езжу туда каждые каникулы. Мы ходили в лес кататься на лыжах, мы делали снеговиков и играли в снежки. Мы даже играли в хоккей! Но зимние каникулы закончились, и я вернулся в город снова. Мне очень понравились мои каникулы.

Dear Jackie,

Thanks for your last letter!
On the topic of holidays in Russia, I can tell you that Christmas is not as popular in Russia as it is in Britain. Instead, we celebrate New Year's Eve more fervently here.

Is it true that you celebrate Christmas on December 25th? Here we celebrate it on the January 7th. It is traditionally celebrated by religious believers, whereas I heard that in Britain people of all faiths and even atheists celebrate Christmas too. Am I right?

My favourite holiday is New Year's Eve, as we put up a fir tree and have a big meal on this day and meet up with friends or relatives.

Other holidays we celebrate include Women's Day, Men's Day and Victory Day. We also celebrate the start of Spring for one whole week and we call this time 'Maslenitsa'. What do you call the day when you celebrate the beginning of lent by making pancakes?

Write back soon,
Sasha
