To my mind if we want to impove living conditions in our city we need to switch on our brains and think. Nowadays we live in fast moving world so there is less time think about conditions we live in. Firstly we need to reduce water pollution. It means we sholdn't throw out into water litter and domestic waste. Also big factories shouldn't pour their waste into rivers. Another problem is air pollution, there are many reasons which cause it. Such as car fumes and reeks from factories. I think it will be good to reduce the amount cars in our city. All in all the environment we live in have a stron influence on our health. Today manypeople suffers from various illnesses due to conditions we live. I am sure that people will solve this problem.

Hi, Sasha! Glad to see you!

- Hello! Reciprocal! How did you rest on vacation?

- Very Well! My parents and I went for a week to the Carpathians. There's so great! I learned to ski!

- Good boy! Was not it terrible?

- At first it's scary. The slope is so long, though not very cool - for beginners. I was helped by a young instructor, and it turned out very quickly! It was very fun. We almost did not go to the hotel room. These were the best vacations in my life!

- I'm glad for you! Vacations are not bad at all - you can rest from studying, sleep, and do your favorite things. I finally read the book I had long dreamed of reading.

- I agree, because in order to study the lessons, it is necessary and so much to read, there is not enough time for reading "for myself". Did you spend your vacation at home?

- Yes. At Christmas, my uncle and my aunt and my cousin Ivan came to us, so it was not boring. But on the next vacation I would also like to go somewhere.

- Right! So interesting to be in new places!

- I also noticed that despite the fact that during the holidays it is not necessary to get up on an alarm clock, I still wake up early, because it's a pity to have time to sleep, when you can do what you like.

- This is the right approach! And then it happens, you get used to long sleeping on vacation, then it's difficult to get up early every morning.

- I also like when there are not many questions about holidays. You can manage your own free time and learn things that you do not know very well.

- Exactly! Vacations are great! Now you can learn!
