42. I want to tell you how my dog Milly came to live with us. My mother is a school teacher and she was taking her class to the park. Suddenly one of the boys pointed at the grass at the side of the road and said he had just seen something moving. Mother came closer and saw a small white-and-black dog. She stared at mother with her big black eyes and then barked "bow-wow" trying to threaten mother and the childnren standing around. But for mum it was love at first sight. She took Milly home. She was thin when we got her, but now she loves to eat so much, we sometimes call her Piggy. We never beat Milly (I despise people who beat animals!) and try to be kind to her. She pays us back with her devotion
1) In my opinion, a journalist is a very interesting ocupation!
2) What could be more interesting than to interview people, meet new people, learn the details of their lives and how they have achieved their success?
Or to see one of the first event, and then to tell about it to the whole country, to the whole world and it does not matter how: to write about it in the newspaper or to make a report about it... My dream is to make my own reports and, if necessary, to go to the remote hinterland of our great country or to fly a few hours by plane to a distant country, and then to tell the whole country on television about what happened. The profession of journalist is both difficult and interesting. But at the same time it is a very responsible job, because the world learns about the news from the lips of journalists and it is important to convey to the viewer or reader true information without any distorting it.
3) I am sure that everyone will find his favourite work and will love it, devote his whole life to it. It is only important to make the right choice of his profession!
