What I would like to invent for mankind is a machine which can sort out clothes with a simle click of a button.I would like to invent this because sorting clothes is not very easy or fun. It would only take the machine a couple of minutes to sort out clothes but for a person it would take hours. The machine would also see colours and would be able to sort out any type, colour or brand of clothes. Even socks! I hate sorting out clothes esspecially socks.

For most people Christmas is one of the most cherished holidays during the year. As we know, in England it is celebrated on the 25th of December. However, the Christmas season officially starts four weeks before the holiday. This period of the year is called Advent. During these weeks nearly every child creates a list of highly wanted presents, which is sent as a letter to Father Christmas.
There are many traditions and customs of celebrating Christmas in England. For example, in rural areas on the night before Christmas there are hundreds of lit candles in the windows. So, for the locals the Christmas Eve is “the night of candles”. This tradition originated from ancient ritual of burning the Christmas log, which symbolized the victory of light over darkness.
Для большинства людей Рождество является одним из самых долгожданных праздников в году. Как мы знаем, в Англии оно отмечается 25 декабря. Тем не менее, Рождество официально начинается за четыре недели до праздника. Этот период года называется Адвент (Предрождественский пост). Во время этих недель почти каждый ребенок пишет список самых желанных подарков и отправляет письмом к Деду Морозу.
В Англии есть множество традиций и обычаев празднования Рождества. Например, в сельских районах в ночь перед Рождеством в окнах зажигаются сотни свечей. Таким образом, для местных жителей Сочельник это еще и «ночь свечей». Эта традиция возникла из древнего ритуала сожжения Рождественского полена, что символизировало победу света над тьмой
