I have to say that was the worst holiday I have ever been on. I’ve never considered myself to be a 0 know-all, but as I had lived in England for a few years, I thought I knew enough! I wanted a holiday that was a bit 1 . I have 2 for flowers and the islands are famous for theirs. In fact, the Scillies are heaven for anyone who studied 3 . The people are supposed to be
4 and eager to help. I knew that I wasn’t going to get 5there, but I did expect it to be quite warm in the summer. I was 6. It rained every single day of the fortnight I was there. I also found that although the local people were friendly, they were so 7. I was lucky if I saw more than three in one day. I’ve never felt so lonely! I wanted to
8 in the beautiful gardens but in fact I spent nearly every day in my hostel hooked up to my computer. The Scilly Islands are very remote and maybe because of this you need to have some 9 of the region before going there and be 10 in checking the right time to avoid bad weather. However, if you want a cheap holiday and to steer 11, I suggest you go camping somewhere in England.

Объяснение:
21st FIFA World Cup was held in Russia from June 14th to July 15th, 2018. This was the first time the World Cup took place in Russia.
In 2010, FIFA announced that Russia had won the right to host the 2018 World Cup. In 2014 Russia began preparation for this important event. They built training camps for the 32 national teams that had qualified. They also built or renovated twelve stadiums in which the tournament's 64 matches would be held. The biggest is Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium where the opening match took place on June 14 and where the World Cup Final was held on July 15.
The official mascot of the 2018 FIFA World Cup was a wolf called Zabivaka which means "the scorer". Zabivaka is fluffy and has kind eyes. It was chosen by the Russian public.
This World Cup brought a lot of surprises. A few months before the event people had tried to predict a possible winner. The predictions included Germany, Brazil, France and Spain. But three of these teams lost their chances long before the final.
The Russian team tried their best to win the World Cup for all their passionate fans and the result surprised a lot of people. The Russian team's victory over Spain earned them a place in the quarter finals but they lost in the match with Croatia. Anyway, this was Russia’s best World Cup performance.
The final took place on the 15th July at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, between France and Croatia. France won the match to claim their second World Cup title.
