Iwould like to take part in magellan's round-the-world expedition as it was very interesting and dangerous adventure.the first voyage round the world was made by magellan over 400 years ago. he thought that by going west he could travel by sea round the world and come to the same place again. in those early days many people in europe were interested in india they knew it was a very rich country whose culture was older than theirs. magellan wanted to find a new way to india.one day, after a voyage of many months, magellan's crew saw land. it turned out to be south america. they were met by a crowd of men and women, who looked quite different from them.magellan did not stay long in south america: he was in a hurry to get to india. this voyage was long and difficult. islands were few and far between, and the travellers were often in need of food and water. many of them fell ill, but at last, after many months of travelling, they reached the philippine islands. in the philippine islands magellan and his men were well met by the people they stayed there for some time and took part in a war between two different peoples of the islands magellan was killed in this war.

Изменение места джули уиллис является художник из сан-франциско, который переехал в лондон в 1988 году. мы спросили ее, сравнить жизнь в сан-франциско и лондоне. вот что она рассказала нам. города сан-франциско является прекрасный город в красивой бухте. у этого есть много отличных зданий и мест. это меньше, и гораздо более современный, чем лондон, но это менее интересно. лондон имеет гораздо больше театров и музеев. американцы, как правило, больше заинтересованы в деньгах, чем культуры! архитектура в лондоне невероятный и стимулирует, а парки и рынки замечательны. лондон не так опасно, как сан-франциско, и это меньше насилия. я чувствую себя гораздо более безопасной жизнь здесь - никто не несет пистолет, даже не полиция стоимость живых людей имеют более высокий уровень жизни в штатах, потому что, как правило, это гораздо дешевле, чем финляндии! .
