<span>Millions of tons of water fall from the cliff where the Niagara River
rushes from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario; deafening roar can be heard for many
kilometers around.<span>
A cloud
of spray raised high in the air where the Niagara River is roaring and foaming
in the boiler at the foot of the waterfall. This famous waterfall consists of
two parts: the American and Horseshoe Falls. Between them is Goat Island - an
island covered with trees in the middle of the river.
Better
known, perhaps, Horseshoe Falls, which forms an arc length of 792 m, with the
Canadian side of the border. The road running along the river, allows us to
consider the vicinity, water, smooth surface that resembles a dark green glass,
falling down a cliff, turns into white foam.
American
Falls is less and forms a straight line length of about 300 m. At the foot of
the American Falls are fragments of rock, as opposed to the bare cliff
Horseshoe Falls. The height of the two waterfalls about 50 m.
Niagara
Falls there are only about 10,000 years - a relatively short period in the
geological term. When the last ice age ended, massive glaciers retreating,
leaving behind the Great Lakes. Due to the nature of the river system water
flows out of Lake Erie at 56 km in the Niagara River lying 100 m. Below Lake
Ontario. From Lake Ontario flows, in turn, the river St. Lawrence.
Above the
falls the river bed runs through the hard dolomite, under which, however, are
softer rock - slate and sandstone. Initially the river crashes down a cliff
about 11 km. north of the present location of the waterfall, but as fast during
eroded the softer underlying rocks, dolomite collapses. Step-by-step waterfall
receded, leaving behind a deep gorge, and today is far from the place where was
born 10,000 years ago. Falls recede by about 1 m. Per year, and is now at 305
m. Upstream of the place where the French explorer Louis Ennepe saw it back in
1678. However, there is Goat Island River divided in half; moreover, at least
half the water Niagara reserved for electricity production - all this means
that the waterfall is now much more stable than it was in the past.
With bridges and parking lots on both sides of the river a
beautiful view; One of the most popular bridges - the Rainbow Bridge (Rainbow),
named because of the rainbow, playing in the spray of a waterfall. The true
extent and power of Niagara's most clearly appear from the boats dare go into
the rushing water at the foot of the waterfall.</span></span>
<span>The Bedes liked the house which they had bought 1 three weeks before. It was standing2 on the hill and was3 in perfect condition."Now I feel4 quite happy," Gwen said5. "We have been living6 in the house for 3 weeks and I get7 more and more proud of it. I think8I can9 live in the house all my future life." James liked10 their new house very much too. He often sat11 in the old armchair looking12 into the fire. These were13 the happiest minutes in his life. He was watching14 the logs burning15 in the fire and was thinking16 he would be able to17 sit18 like that for a long time.</span>
<span>The Bedes had been19 in the house for twenty-two days when their first post arrived20. The postman brought21 three large envelopes. There was22 a letter from Gwen's sister. Gwen hoped23 she would read24 it after the postman went25 away, there were26 business papers for James in the second envelope, the third envelope was addressed27 to "Mrs Alison Ray". Gwen </span>wanted28 to give29 that letter to the postman, but the latter said30 that as the address had been written31 correctly somebody might32call33 on them later. He asked34 the Bedes to keep35 the letter for some days. He promised36 to return37 at the end of the week and said38 he would take39 the letter to the post-office if nobody asked40 for it.Gwen left41 the letter on the hall table but the following morning it disappeared42. Gwen decided43 that James had hidden44 it and asked if he had not touched45 the letter. "Who has taken46 the letter then? What will we tell47 the postman when he comes48? What all this means49?" worried50 Gwen.

Most people like to leave their places on holidays. Some prefer a quite rest in the country or at their dachas. Others go to the seaside and enjoy swimming and sunbathing on the golden beaches of the South. A lot of people are crazy about travelling and feel great visiting new places, getting more impressions and knowledge about them.
As for me, I prefer going to the country on holidays. Almost every summer I visit my grandparents there. This summer was not an exception. In June I stayed in the country for about a month. There I enjoyed fresh air, pleasant views of the surrounding nature. I helped my grandma and grandpa about home and in the garden. I watered plants and weeded the garden, mowed the long grass.
Besides my grandparents, I have some friends in the country. This summer we went fishing and camping together. It was fun to play ball on the grass! Also we liked lying in the sun and bathing in the river. In the evening we went boating on the lake. We went to the forest and gathered raspberries. It was a real pleasure to stay out of town!
In July I went abroad, namely, to Finland with my parents and a little sister. We were touring by car around the country, so we could see a lot of new places. I had a good time in this country!
In August I stayed in the town reading books, playing football with my friends and preparing for school.
So, I spent my holidays very well and had a good rest!
Перевод:
Большинство людей хотело бы покинуть свои места в праздники. Некоторые предпочитают спокойный отдых в деревне или на дачах. Другие едут к морю и наслаждаются купанием и загоранием на золотых пляжах юга. Многие люди без ума от путешествий и великолепно себя чувствуют, посещая новые места, получая больше впечатлений и знаний о них.
Что касается меня, я предпочитаю ехать в дереню на праздники. Почти каждое лето я проведываю своих бабушек и дедушек. Это лето было не исключением. В июне я остался в деревне почти на месяц. Там я наслаждался свежим воздухом, приятным видом на окружающую природу. Я помогал моим бабушке и дедушке по дому и в саду. Я поливал растения и вырывал сорняки в саду, косил траву.
Кроме бабушки и дедушки, у меня есть друзья в деревне. Этим летом мы поехали на рыбалку и кемпинг вместе. Было весело играть в мяч на траве! Также нам понравилось лежать на солнце и купаться в реке. Вечером мы катались на лодке по озеру. Мы пошли в лес и собирали малину. Это было настоящее наслаждение для отдыха за городом!
В июле я уехал за границу, а именно в Финляндию с моими родителями и младшей сестрой. Мы совершали поездку на машине по всей стране, так что мы смогли увидеть много новых мест. Я хорошо провел время в этой стране!
В августе я остался в городе и провел время за чтением книг, играл в футбол со своими друзьями и готовился к школе.
Итак, я провел свои каникулы очень хорошо и хорошо отдохнул!
