I live in Russia. Russia is my native country. The Russian Federation is the largest country in the world. It occupies one seventh of the Earth’s surface. It is situated both in Europe and Asia. The total area is about 17 million square kilometres. The country is washed by 12 seas and 3 oceans: the Pacific, the Archic and the Atlantic oceans. Our neighbours in the south are China, Mongolia, Korea, Kazakhstan, Georgia and Azerbaijan In the west we have borders with Norway, Finland, Belarus and the Ukraine. There is no country in the world like Russia, with the steppes in the south, plains and forests in the midland, tundra and taiga in the north, highlands and deserts in the east. There is a great number of rivers in Russia, The Volga, the longest in Europe river, flows into the Caspian Sea. The main Siberian rivers- the Ob, the Yenisey and the Lena flow from the south to the north. The Amur in the Far East flows into the Pacific ocean. The deepest lake in the world is Baikal. The water in the lake is so clear, that you can see the stones on the bottom.

Because of the vast territory there are various types of climate in the country. The climate varies greatly

in different regions.

Russia is very rich in oil, coal, iron ore, natural gas, copper, nickel and other mineral resources. Russia is a parliamentary republic with the strong power of the President who is the head of the state.

B. Siberian Lake Baikal is the largest pool of fresh water on the planet. All the 12 major rivers of the world (the Volga, the Don, the Yenisei, the Ob, the Ganges, the Amazon, etc.) would need to flow almost a year to fill a pool equal to the volume of Lake Baikal. Another impressive fact is that even if all the rest of the planet’s fresh water supply were to disappear, there would be enough fresh water left in Lake Baikal to supply the people of the earth for up to 50 years.

«MY UNIVERSITY» Hello again! This is Vera and this time I’ll tell you about my University and my studies.I am very happy that I study here. It is one of the finest country’s higher educational institutions. Many famous people have graduated from my University, and not only lawyers or scientists, but many outstanding writers, actors, showmen and politicians. Studying at our University gives a solid background in all spheres of knowledge and prepares for practical work. Our University is quite large but not very old, compared to other national institutions. It was founded at the beginning of the 20th century. In 1915, during the World War I the university of Warsaw was evacuated to Rostov-na-Donu. First it had only three faculties, but later it became the largest University in the region and it gave birth to other Institutions in the region. Nowadays it is a large school where more than 9000 students are currently enrolled. The majority are full-time students, like me, and the rest are part time-students. There are also about 150 graduate students — aspirants and doctorants. They conduct independent research work and have pedagogical practice. The course of study at my University lasts five years. There are many faculties at my University. Our University is large and we have several building. One of the buildings is for lectures and seminars only. There are many large halls there so that students of 3—4 groups together can fit in there. And that is more than 100 people. The acoustics in such large halls is very good but sometimes it is very noisy when students chat during the lecture. We have two other buildings for library, computer center, gym, and other facilities. Many students from my group want to do their own research work in the future and these facilities will certainly help them. There are several cafes at the University. My favourite one is situated in a separate one-storeyed building and people say that this is the oldest canteen or student’s cafe. The food there is tasty and very affordable. There are also several dormitories or hostel buildings where students from other cities or countries live. But you know already that I don’t live in a dormitory — I rent an apartment.
