I want to share with you my experience of reading English books in their original text. I already finished 3 of them. Despite the fact that all of them are not adapted, I easily understood the meaning of the sentences and the plot. Despite the fact that they contain a lot of unknown vocabulary, I enjoyed this process. The first book is called “ Daddy – long – legs” by Jean Webster. It is a story about 17-year-old girl who was raised in an asylum, but she was lucky to be noticed by a rich man, who found her smart and sent her to college in order to continue her education. She never saw him, but she was obliged to write him letters every month and inform him about her daily routine and the studying process. I must confess that her manner of writing letters was touchy and exciting. I couldn’t stop reading because I wondered what would be in the next month`s news. The second book, I read, is called “Love story” by Erich Sigal. It is written in a simple, daily language. There is a lot of dialogues between characters, that makes the book easy for understanding. The plot was a kind of primitive for me, but it is my personal point of view. Anyway, it was worth readying to practice my English. I read it in the online version and it took me a few hours. Finally, the third book, which I had already read in Russian many years ago, is called “ The picture of Dorian Grey”. It is a classic book, so definitely it can`t be tedious. Honestly, it is not simple for reading in original, but by skipping long descriptions of some places, which are full of old-fashioned but extremely beautiful vocabulary, which will never be useful in our modern world, and paying attention only to events and actions, you will enjoy the plot and philosophical reflections, that the author put in every sentence. This novel is about Dorian Grey (it is logically), who desired to stay young and handsome forever, no matter the price, even if he had to sell his soul. It happens in a mysterious way.

I guess, this happened because most of people have not any captivating hobby and all they want is to be unconcerned and to get rid from their worries.

Since we have stable internet we easily can find how to spend our time. Although elderly people consider that past century was better and criticize the lifestyle of new generation among 4 walls with telephones in their hands, I recon that we can find in internet much really usefull infarmation and to broaden our outlook.

Native english speakers, RESPOND Please! What if we picture that all people in the World are tiny pieces of giant puzzle? I believe that my theory looks like the truth. To find our real soulmate seems unreal because there are many conditions which must be satisfied. As we remember from our childhoods every puzzle is something bright and interesting. To gather all pieces together for creating clear picture it's necessary to choose accurately each of them and correctly put them on the right place. And in our lives acts the same rules. All corners, edges and colors of you in the role of piece of the puzzle must be matched to another piece with the same characteristics. After all I have come to conclusion that its barely impossible to meet a person who looks, thinks, acts, express themselves similar to you. So, we should be pleased in the case if we have near us the person who have at least several same qualities as we have. Literally, no matter if you are looking for new friends or for your life partner, to make life the most interesting, to make every your day sunny, choose right piece of the puzzle. The more corners can be combined or united the more chances that you will spend perfect time with this person. But you never will find your 100% sutable place in this Universe puzzle.
