that art is very important. Others don’t think so.

On the one hand works of art make our life more interesting, more fascinating, because artists give feelings, emotions, experience with the help of their music, paintings, sculptures. Moreover art develops our spiritual life. Without art people become pour inside.

On the other hand I know some people saying art is useless and boring. They say it’s waste of time to go to the theatres, galleries and listen to symphonies. They prefer others kinds of activity. Moreover some people don’t understand impressionists, surrealists and others schools of art. They think such works of art affect the mind and the psyche of people.

To sum up there is no agreement about the role of art in our life.

Personally I think art is very important in our life. Each respectable person should know about famous composers, painters, architects, sculptors. And he should love and respect art.

2. Why is pollution a big problem for people now?

Nowadays the situation in our environment is very difficult and dangerous. A lot of wastes from factories, electric power stations, chemical industry, and heavy industry go into the air, soil and water.

The water in rivers has become polluted in many places. If people drink this water they can get ill and even die. Fish in such rivers become toxic and dangerous to eat. A lot of trees on the banks die.

On the other hand some people don’t think it’s a big problem. In fact, we can’t close all factories and prohibit using ships in the rivers. Moreover it’s impossible to look after all people pouring domestic waste into rivers.

In any case people must do everything possible to keep the rivers clean.

In my opinion it’s very important to save the water for ourselves and for next generations. We should be nature’s best friends and take care of it.

fault of his own this promise was never realized. In the third year of his marriage with Laura, a firm that was almost identical in size and character with the firm Ralph worked for underwent a change of ownership, and Ralph was approached and asked if he would be interested in joining the overhauled firm. His own job promised only meager security after a series of slow promotions and he was glad of the chance to escape. He met the new owners, and their enthusiasm for him seemed intense. They were prepared to put him in charge of a department and pay him twice what he was getting then. The arrangement was to remain tacit for a month or two, until the new owners had secured their position, but they shook hands warmly and had a drink on the deal, and that night Ralph took Laura out to dinner at an expensive restaurant.
They decided to look for a larger apartment, to have a child, and to buy a secondhand car. They faced their good fortune with perfect calm, for it was what they had expected all along. The city seemed to them a generous place, where people were rewarded either by a sudden and deserved development like this or by the capricious bounty of lawsuits, eccentric and peripheral business ventures, unexpected legacies and other windfalls.
He was twenty-eight years old; poverty and youth were inseparable in his experience, and one was ending with the other. The life they were about to 'leave had not been hard, and he thought with sentiment of the soiled tablecloth in the Italian restaurant where they usually went for their celebrations, and the high spirits with which Laura on a wet night ran from the subway to the bus stop. But they were drawing away from all this. Shirt sales in department-store basements, lines at meat counters, weak drinks, the roses he brought her up from the subway in the spring, when roses were cheap - these were all unmistakably the souvenirs of the poor, and while they seemed to him good and gentle, he was glad that they would soon be memories.
The reorganization and Ralph's new position hung fire, but they talked about it freely when with friends. "All we need is patience," Laura would say. There were many delays and postponements, and they waited with the patience of people expecting justice. He decided to telephone his potential employers. Their secretary told him they were both out. This made him apprehensive. He called several times from the telephone booth in the lobby of the building he worked in and was told that they were busy, they were out, they were in conference with lawyers, or they were talking long-distance. This variety of excuses frightened him. He said nothing to Laura that evening and tried to call them the next day. Late in the afternoon, after many tries, one of them came to the phone. "We gave the job to somebody else, sonny," he said. Like a saddened father, he spoke to Ralph in a hoarse and gentle voice. "Don't try and get us on the telephone any more. We've got other things to do besides answer the telephone. This other fellow seemed better suited, sonny. That's all I can tell you, and don't try to get me on the telephone any more."
