Review of the year (1) BORODINO 09 The annual FIELD CAMPING has brought lots of excitement for our students in SEPTEMBER. This time FIELD CAMPING lasted TWO DAYS. The whole SENIOR school took part in it except classes 11 ‘B’ and ‘G’ as they were busy with preparing for the JUNIOR school FIELD CAMPING. Everything was perfect and up to high standard. We were partly pleased with the weather this year. The FIRST DAY was devoted to PUTTING UP THE TENTS, COLLECTING WOODS, MAKING FIRE, COOKING. In the evening everybody was preparing for the concert. The PERFORMANCES of all the classes were very interesting. There were FIREWORKS afterwards. It’s a good tradition of every FIELD CAMPING. We went to bed at 00.30 and got up at 8 a.m. The second day was a COMPETITION DAY. ‘BOOM’ is a pillow fight. It’s very hard to stay on the feet. TUGGING- OF- WAR was a part of the competition. ORIENTATION meant to find all the signs in the forest and not to get lost. RELAY RACE included SETTING UP A TENT, MAKING A FIRE, BOILING WATER and it was only the beginning of the distance. All the competitions were EXTREMELY HARD. At the time of the competition someone was cooking in the camp, someone was keeping the fire, but they certainly were supporting their classes with all their hearts. In the afternoon the young people folded the tents and put out the fires. Later the WINNER was announced. It was class 9 ‘V’. We had a wonderful day in Borodino. We appreciate the work of our organizers and congratulated class 9 ‘V’ with their VICTORY. home next Review of the year (2) • • • EXAMS The main aim of every pupil in our grammar school is to pass the exams successfully at the end of the year. The results of the previous school year were fairly good. Everybody was satisfied with the marks. Because all of them were good. Those who finished the ninth form got a certificate. The teachers were pleased with the results of the pupils’ work. We don’t think it will be easier this year. So, we must work as hard as we can. Don’t relax! The holiday during the year is the only time for our pupils to relax and forget about homework. Many of them go on two or three – day – tours. They visit different cities and towns of Russia. It’s a great fun! Young people get to know each other better and have a wonderful time OUR GRAMMAR SCHOOL IS ALSO PROUD OF ITS GOOD TRADITIONS AND WE FOLLOW THEM EVERY SCHOOL YEAR! BY ASKEROV RAMIN previous The sports news • This year everyone had been waiting for the most important sport event of our school – ‘Orange Cup’! Many teams were dreaming of victory, but the favourites were teams of 10A, 11ABVG and 10B ! All bookmakers staked on 11ABVG, but last year’s championship team of 10A has won and become twice champion! We would like to thank Olga Olegovna, Boris Viktorovich and Tatyana Nikolaevna officially for the organization of this yearly competition. home next The sports news(2) • Now – world football news! Future World Championship of football is going to occur in South Africa. Russian team couldn’t guarantee our participation it this competition and we still should play 2 butt matches. On the 19th October the toss-up has defined our future rival – it is Slovenia. Most of Russians have breathed with relief, but to no purpose. Of course, they haven’t got loud names in team, but Slovenes are famous for the team playing, especially in defense (4 goals for last 1, 5 years). Guss Ivanovich Hiddink said for “the school 1567 times”: “On the black continent through a rear entrance. Wait and see”. by Vova Karpukhin and Alex Zhirov previous FASHION • • • • • • • Outerwear Skirts and trousers Shoes Bags Belts Make-up and hairstyles Colour and texture home by Olya Borisova and Sveta Erofeeva Outerwear One-colour coats with big buttons or with zipper, with belt or without, long or short, dark or bright – the absolute hit of the season. Also in this autumn are popular jerkins and leather coats. previous Skirts and trousers • Straight, skirts-pencils, middle-length. Treggins are new arrival to shops; they are like leggings, but tight, shining and synthetic. Jeans are a little bit shorter and not so tight. previous Shoes • Leather or chamois botilyons and high-hills boots, with laces, belts, zippers. Comfortable soft uggs are conquering hearts of fashion-conscious women. previous Bags • Big roomy handbags, suitcases with short handles or clutches – it’s your choice! previous Belts • It should be marked, that on the every fashion show there are belts all colours and sizes: narrow and wide, one-colour with cloth or contrasting, waisted or hipped.

One of the most interesting combinations of colours I consider black with beige. previous INTERVIEW Our journalist Olya has met Leonid Isaakovich Zvavich and asked him some questions. O: Hello, Leonid Isaakovich! Today I would like to ask you some questions for our school magazine. First one is what is the main thing in your life? L.I.: The duration of my life.

Our psychologist will try to help you. My problem is rather banal, but it really spoils my life. I like bright clothes and punk rock, but the adults don’t understand me. My parents think that I wear ridiculous clothes; they say my music is just a noise. I am under constant pressure from my parents and teachers, which leads to misunderstanding. We have arguments almost every day, sometimes I can’t restrain myself and shout at them, so my mother says my behaviour is shocking, inexplicable, I am rude to my betters and elders. How to overcome these problems? I am really exhausted because of these arguments. Oksana Dear Oksana, misunderstanding of children and parents is often met nowadays, and unfortunately your family is not an exception. I think you have a right to choose your clothes and music on your own. Try to explain it to your parents, show then that your strange clothes and music don’t mean you’re stupid or mad. Prove them that you are responsible, ambitious and hard-working. If they see it, I hope they won’t be against your tastes and interests! Since I was 11 years old I dreamt to be popular, but one problem hinders me to pursue my dream: I am rather overweight. I don’t have friends, boys don’t pay attention to me, and it annoys me greatly, but I didn’t want to change anything, I wanted my classmates to appreciate my soul, not my appearance. Few weeks ago everything changed: I fell in love. Now I can’t decide if I should grow thin or I should wait for the guy I like to accept me with such an appearance. Please, give me advice! Vika Dear Vika, I think you should really change your appearance, not for others, bur for yourself, if you do it, you will respect yourself, and, unfortunately, appearance plays a great role in our life nowadays. But you must be careful! My sister had the same problem, and few months ago she decided to change everything, she began keeping a diet. Firstly, she just controlled herself, she chose the food very properly, and it was effective. She started growing thin immediately, but later she reduced the amount of food, she almost ate nothing. 2 months passed, and she found out that her weight was 34 kilos. It shocked her, but she couldn’t do anything: her organism didn’t take the food. She is still at risk, and it it is very dangerous. Don’t repeat her mistake!
