Anticipate or expect? If I use "expect" instead of "anticipate", does it change the meaning of what I said?

Not Everyone is Capable A person need a talent to be a pilot, a carpenter or a cook. Not everyone can hammer a nail in a wall or grow up flowers. But there is a skill nowadays that everybody can do. From youth to old age people from all over the world easily become... drivers! The skill that requires quick reaction and thinking, attention and coordination, is available to everyone now. As a result, over 1,2 million people die in car accidents every year. It is more than 3300 people a day.

The Winter Morning I ought to waiting for my friend's parents to take them from here to their home. They live in a small village, thirty kilometers from our town. The way to the village passes through the fields and forests, a sunshine is making surroundings more beautiful and fairy-tale. A snow on the spruces's branches is shining and sparkling. It's one of the seldom sunny days in winter. I feel good helping the elderly couple and admiring the nature.

My Little Stroll I woke up earlier than usual in the morning. Since everybody at home was not awake yet, I decided to take a walk. Winter in our town brings a lot of snow this year, so the walk was not easy. I walked in the darkness, along slippery paths between huge snow-drifts. I was able to walk only 5.6 km in almost an hour and half. It was pretty hard training for me!
