I am a student of Kiev Technology University. I am 17 years old. I am rather tall, thin. I am well- built, to my mind. I have an oval face with a straight nose. My eyes are rather big and brown. I have long eyelashes. My lips are neither thin nor full. My hair is dark and I have a short cut. Nowadays it’s expensive to be smart and fashionable but I try to be well- dressed and neat. I have no beard and moustache. I usually wear a pullover and dark trousers. I was born in January. I am Capricorn. First of all I enjoy listening to loud music. I like good company and parties. As for my character I am cheerful, honest, and sociable. I have a sense of humor. I like jokes. I am well-brought-up and have good manners. I don’t respect rude, selfish and foolish people.

I do well in all subjects. They say that I am a hardworking person. To tell the truth, all school subjects come easy for me but sometimes, I have to sit much, for example, to do lessons in Physics or Chemistry, to write a composition or to learn a poem by heart. But my favourite subject is English. I spend much time reading books, doing tests etc. Perhaps, English will be a part of my future career. I like reading. I think comics and detective stories are much easier to read but I prefer to read historical or modern novels. I like music. My musical tastes are different, but it depends on my mood. I play the piano and the guitar, not seriously, but for my soul. Sometimes I like to listen to the Russian classical music. My favourite composers are Tchaikovsky and Mozart. I have not much time to watch TV but sometimes I spend an hour or two watching an interesting film or news programmers. In the evening I often read newspapers (our local ones) or magazines. I like fresh air and exercises. It is a pity; I have not much time for doing sports. But some aerobics in the morning, a swimming-pool twice a week, a ski-walk on a frosty day are of great help. I have a wide circle of interests. I have many friends, most of them are my class-mates. We spend much time together, going out to the cinema or to the disco party, speaking about lessons and music, discussing our problems. But most of all I like my family. We all are great friends and deeply attached to each other. Ex. 6. Закончите предложения. 1. My name is ____________________________. My surname is________________________ 2. I am ___________.

We have been friends for 5 years already, since she came to our school. Some people say that we look alike but I don't think so. Janet has blue eyes and fair hair, while my eyes are brown and I'm dark-haired. She has a lovely fresh complexion and a beautiful mouth with full lips, but she is short-sighted so she wears contact lenses. Janet is quite tall and has a beautiful slim figure. Actually we are the same height and build, maybe that is why our neighbours sometimes take me for Janet, Janet is very smart and looks really attractive when she dresses up to go out with her boyfriend. Janet likes studying languages and is thinking of learning them at the university to be able to work later for a travel agency. She can already speak French and Spanish fluently and is learning modern Greek. Janet loves being with crowds of people and makes friends easily. She loves going to parties, and there she immediately becomes the centre of attention. Janet is good at games but never takes them seriously, so when we play tennis, I always win because she doesn't care if she wins or loses. Janet is very witty and amusing and she always cheers me up when I am depressed because she has a wonderful sense of humour. I think her only fault is that she is restless and gets bored easily. She is an intelligent and hard-working person, but she doesn't get good marks at school because she doesn't study enough. I admire her because she is so bright and energetic, but I think it is a good thing that both her boyfriend and I are calm and tolerant, and when she is impatient with us we just laugh, and then she laughs, too.
