<span>Reading plays a very important part in my life. I have several interests and hobbies and reading is one of them. In my opinion, people should read books because they educate and enriches the intellect. Books can also shape a person’s character and his moral values. Apart from that, reading is simply fun. It entertains us and gives lots of pleasure. For example, when I read an interesting book, I completely dissolve in it. I travel to distant places together with main characters. If the book is super-interesting, I can read it again and again. Thanks to reading, I have learn to express my thoughts and feelings more clearly. I think that reading a book at spare time is a wonderful activity. Besides, books are rather handy. They are easy to carry, so I always take a book or two when I travel. I especially like reading on a bus or train. This way time flies like a streak of lightning. People are fond of reading different kinds of books. My favourite genre is a novel. I also enjoy reading the works of famous Russian and foreign authors, which are now considered to be classics. For example, according to our school program we had to read “Fathers and Sons” by Turgenev and “Crime and Punishment” by Dostoevsky. I truly enjoyed both of them. Another good novel was “War and Peace” by Tolstoy. Our teacher showed us a movie based on this novel because the book itself is really huge and contains several volumes. I should admit that the movie was also brilliant. In conclusion, I’d like to add that people who take pleasure in reading should attend libraries. There are so many interesting books in the world but we can’t buy all of them. That’s why there are many public libraries in our country</span>

I was drinking tea, when my mother called
We were eating pasta while we were watching a new cartoon
When Winston came home, Karen was sleeping
We use money every day to pay for things we buy.
Thousands of years ago, the money was not used. Instead, man had the “barter” system. This meant that if one wanted something he had, he had to find someone who had this thing. Then he had to offer him something in exchange. And if that person didn't like what he was offered, the first man couldn't get what he needed.
Over time, certain things were used as money, because virtually everyone would take these things in exchange. In the past people used shells, beads, beans, cocoa, salt, grain, tobacco, leather, and even cattle. But coins are much easier to use than, say, cattle. Them easy to store and carry.
They were first made from either gold or silver. They were imprinted with the brand name. Printing was showing how much each coin was worth.
Later, people began to use coins made of cheaper metals. Metal just had no value, but the coins still had value on the basis of printing, imprinted on them. People have also started to use paper money. No longer mattered that the money itself had no real value. This is the kind of money we use today.
