My name is Lisa I'm 12 years old and I’d like to tell you about my favourite food and dishes. That will be mostly about fruit, as I like eating all kinds of fruits and fruit salads. English people say that an apple a day will keep the doctor away. I think it’s a wise saying, as apples contain lots of vitamins and minerals. My mum always buys apples for the whole family. However, my favourite fruit is orange and all other citrus fruits. I know that it’s not healthy for me to eat lots of them, as I’m somehow allergic to citrus, so I eat only some. Usually they have a strong aroma and acid taste. The taste can differ from bitter to tart and sweet. For example, if we take grapefruits, some of them can be sweeter than others and some can be bitter. It depends on its variety and colour. I don’t like grapefruits as much as oranges, but sometimes I eat them. My mum says they are full of vitamins. Other than that, I know that they work as a successful weight loss agent. Speaking about citrus fruit and their specific taste I should mention lemons and limes. These fruits are used in many dishes for flavoring. My mum uses lemon juice in many salads, while my dad uses limes in various cocktails. Apart from citruses, I also like coconuts. This tropical fruit grows mainly in hot countries, such as India, Sri Lanka, Brazil. It is then imported to other countries. I especially like the taste of the white nut inside it and I don’t drink the coconut milk. In conclusion, I’d like to say that all fruits are equally useful. That’s why they need to be in every person’s daily ration.

</span><span>Two cowboys come upon an Indian lying on his stomach with his ear to the ground. One of the cowboys stops and says to the other, "You see that Indian?"
"Yeah," says the other cowboy.
"Look," says the first one, "he’s listening to the ground. He can hear things for miles in any direction."
Just then the Indian looks up. "Covered wagon," he says, "about two miles away. Have two horses, one brown, one white. Man, woman, child, household effects in wagon."
"Incredible!" says the cowboy to his friend. "This Indian knows how far away they are, how many horses, what color they are, who is in the wagon, and what is in the wagon. Amazing!"
The Indian looks up and says, "Ran over me about a half hour ago."</span>Русский<span>Два ковбоя наткнулись на индейца, лежащего на животе, приложившего ухо к земле. Один из ковбоев останавливается и говорит другому: "Видишь того индейца?"
"Ага," – говорит другой ковбой.
"Смотри," – говорит первый, – "он слушает землю. Он может слышать звуки на многие мили в любом направлении."
В этот момент индеец поднимает глаза. "Крытый фургон," – говорит он, – "примерно в двух милях от сюда. Две лошади, одна коричневая, одна белая. Мужчина, женщина, ребёнок, домашние пожитки в фургоне."
"Невероятно!" – говорит ковбой своему другу. – "Этот индеец знает, как далеко они находятся, сколько у них лошадей, какого они цвета, кто в фургоне, и что в фургоне. Удивительно!"
Индеец поднимает глаза и говорит: "Переехали через меня примерно полчаса назад."
</span><span>A young boy was playing with a ball in the street. He kicked it too hard, and it broke the window of a house and fell inside. A lady came to the window with the ball and shouted at the young boy, so he ran away, but he still wanted his ball back.
A few minutes later he returned and knocked at the door of the house, and when the lady answered it, he said, "My father's going to come and fix your window very soon."
After a few more minutes a man came to the door with tools in his hand, so the lady let the boy take his ball away.
When the man finished fixing the window, he said to the lady, "That will cost you exactly ten dollars."
"But aren't you the father of that young boy?" the woman asked, looking surprised.
"No," he answered, equally surprised. "Aren't you his mother? "</span>Русский<span>Маленький мальчик играл с мячем на улице. Он пнул его слишком сильно и мячик, пробив окно в доме, упал на пол. Женщина выглянула в окно с мячиком и так ругала мальчика, что тот убежал, но ему хотелось вернуть свой мячик обратно.
Через несколько минут он постучал в дверь дома, где жила женщина и сказал ей: "Мой папа собирается прийти и починить ваши окна".
Через несколько минут пришел мужчина с инструментами в руках, женщина пропустила его и отдала мальчику мячик.
Когда мужчина закончил с окнами, он сказал: "Это будет стоить вам ровно десять долларов".
"Но разве вы не отец того мальчика?" - спросила женщина, удивившись.
"Нет", он тоже был удивлен, "А разве вы не его мать?"
