We have been trying to organise a hobbies and crafts fair (ярмарка) in my school for the last two weeks.

One problem concerns as we need a number of volunteers to help us arrange the in such a way that won’t make anyone feel left out.

SENSE, LIKE, CYCLE, EQUAL
I have teen a keen for about nine years. When I began cycling, I found the flat roads easy but the hills almost impossible. Surprisingly, now it’s the opposite. A long flat ride can be both dull and exhausting as you never experience that fantastic feeling of freedom when speeding downhill. Years ago, going uphill left me breathless. Now I have learned to take hills slowly and steadily. Cycling is any other forms of exercise I have tried; it is never a chore but always a pleasure. The physical benefits are obvious but the mental benefits are important; when you are travelling calmly at a speed, you breathe fresh air, have time to think and can relax.

Steve Jobs, the gifted of Apple computers, grew up in California as the adopted son of a very normal couple who were of the potential of their genius son. When they asked each other ‘What will our son be when he’s older?’ the answer was probably not ‘He’ll be one of the richest men in America’. But that is what he became. Steve did well at school but didn’t like exam revision. He made an for university and was given a place there, but he found it boring and soon dropped out. With a few friends he built the first Apple computer in his father’s garage and he never looked back. The rest is history: his extraordinarily creative mind brought us the iPhone and the iPad, as well as the most computers around.

SENSE, KNOWN, SIMILAR, PROFIT
The biggest and most companies have large advertising budgets which they use to make their name familiar. When people are looking for new trainers, clothes or gadgets and have a choice between two different products — one with a label they have heard of and one which by contrast is to them — they often decide on the product whose name they recognise. However, if they looked carefully at them, they might find the number of between the products quite surprising. People often willingly pay extra for the name of tne designer or company without actually gaining very much in quality or style. If they are , they should therefore not be persuaded that something is better because of the label on it.

How good a friend are you really? And could you be a better one? The best kind of friends are good . That means holding back your opinion until it’s needed. Try to be as sympathetic as possible — asking for help is hard for anyone, so be the first to offer assistance. If your friend takes you up on it they’ll love you for being supportive — and even if they don’t you will have made a good on them! Don’t expect your advice to be taken at that moment, or your friend to be cheered up instantly.
