1. Shopping or fashion?

The way anyone dresses up is crucial.Nowadays people seem to

be judged according to the way they dress.Do you want that people
consider you a serious and reliable person?Then you need to buy a
suit.Do you want people to consider you sloppy and disrespecteful?
Then you should definitly buy jeans and T-shirt.Of corse there are many
cases when a certain outfit is more appropiate than another. This is
imposed by the degree of formality of the event or situation you are
in.But be carefour!Wearing a single type of clothes isn`t a solution.You
must adopt elements for your style.In this way people cannot say you
are not in vogue.

2.Christmas in Romania
In Romania Christmas and mid-winter celebrations last from 20 th
December to 7th January.
The 20th is when people in Romania celebrate St.Ignatius`s Day.It
is traditional that if the family keep pigs,one is killed on this day.The
meat from the pig is used in the Christams meals.
The Christmas celebrations really begin on 24th when the
Christmas trees are decorate.This is done in the evening called Ajunul
Craciunului.
Carol singing (known as colindatul )is also very popular part of
Christmas in Romania.On the Ajun children go out carol singing from
house to house.Then they get sweets,fruit,traditional cakes called
cozonaci and sometimes money. The traditional Romanian carols
are: Star carol,Three Wise Men coming from the East and Oh,What
Wondrous Tidings.
In many parts of the country it`s also traditional that someone
dresses up as a goat,with a multicolored mask and goes around with
the carol singers.That is known as Capra.
Those are the main traditions which make Romanians to say
Craciun fericit!.

3.Student life
The student life can be defined as a period of time which
prepares a student for his future career.Every student dreams that
she/he will have the best job.For that a student should be a person who
likes to know and to learn a lot of things.
Even bought it is not easy there are good times and bad
times,difficult and funny moments.
One student has to learn a lot,to study and this is not so easy al
times,it can be exhausting and difficult,it requires long sleepless nights
in which everyone has to read and to learn as more as possible.But
that may be a useful experience.
As a student a teenager become more responsible,more
interesting and more reliable person.That will help they to build a
career which brings them respect,admiration and success.In a way this
also means power,the power to decide over their own lifes and future.
We all need to have a student life and it is easy to get it by
seriousness and study.

Focsani is a very interesting town with both old historic places
and modern buildings.
It`s pretty easy to get from Bucharest to Focsani.The easiest way
is by train.Being a small town Focsani doesn`t offer tourists attractions
but if you go back in history you will see that this town was an
important one.The olt history of our country shows that there it was a
border state between Moldavia and Romanian Country.Focsani was also
the town where Moldavia and Romanian Country made their union as a
state.
As touristic attractions in Focsani are the Union Sqare which is
the central sqare of the city and an important point for many teenagers
or grandparents who are going for a walk with their nephews,the
Obelisk in the center of this sqare which is dedicated to the Union of
Moldova and Muntenia,the most important historical event for the city
since Focsani used to be on the border of the two provinces.Other
attraction may be the theatre which was seriously damaged by the
earthquaqe of 1977 but it was renovated recently.It is a beautiful

9.Exercise 8/pag.43
Hi Donald
The last time we had a famous person staying with us we were
invaded by autograph hunters,reporters and paparazzi.Can you give
any advice on how to prevent such threats to the privacy of any guest
who is in the public eye?
Dear Brian,
You must improve in your hotel a VIP treatment which consists in
security, privacy and a special program. This will assure your guests
that they will have privacy and nobody will bother them during they
are staing in your hotel.
