Перевести 38. politics is a rough old trade, as michael howard, the former home secretary is finding out. a leading contender for the tory leadership until this week, his campaign now appears to have been fatally damaged by the claim of one of his junior ministers at the home office that he misled the commons. 39. hydrocarbons (oil) and political volatility seem to go together. 40. disenchantment with the president appears to be growing the political scene has been transformed in the past two months to the point where people are openly talking of the possibility: (1) that the president will not seek re-election; and (2) that he might be beaten if he runs. 41. europe seems to be slowing down faster than most people ex­ pected.

Dear Tom,
Thanks for your letter. It was great to hear from you. How are you keeping? I hope you are fine.
As for me, I live in a small town. Each person in our town knows another. People in our town are very friendly and talkative. So I enjoy to live here.
There are not so many places of entertainment in our town. Usually my spare time I spend walking with my friends or going to a park. It is impossible to accurately predict the weather in Russia in a year, but usually we have 20-25 degrees in June and July.
Sorry, I have got to go now. It is time for my favourite TV show.
Yours,
ВАШЕ ИМЯ

I summer with his family went in Britain.For the window of the plane was such view,we flew around 20-23 hours,was awful boring but not for nothing I took a book where had a lot of fairy tales.After arrival in Britain we wanted to eat,we went to the restaurant fast food.Then we quickly delivered to the hotel.Room we went on 19 floor I with mom was lyubovalas` a view of a large bustling city.The next day I with Dad and Mom visited "Kemperskij sabor",there was incredibly beautiful big castle,knights and their armor.After two hour tour we went back in the room.Ostal`ny`j moments I don't remember but they were quite a lot.—Я летом со своей семьёй ездила в Британию.За окном самолета был такой красивый вид,летели мы около 20-23 часов,было ужасно скучно но не даром я взяла книгу где было много сказок.После приезда в Британию мы хотели перекусить,мы пошли в ресторан быстрого питания.Потом нас быстро доставили в отель.Номер нам достался на 19 этаже я с мамой любовалась видом большого шумного города.На следующий день я с Папой и Мамой посетили "Кемперский сабор",там было невероятно красиво большой замок,рыцари и их доспехи.После двух часовой экскурсии мы поехали обратно в номер.Остальный моменты я не помню но их было достаточно много.
