The role of school in our life — Роль школы в нашей жизни
No doubt that school is our second home. We spend a lot of time at school acquiring deep knowledge, which can help us to understand our life better. It plays an important role in our lives. It is here that characters and views are formed. It is at this time that they grow and make friends and learn to understand life. School helps to mould a personality.

The school where I study is situated not far from my house. It was built in 1974. It is a modern four-storeyed building of all typical design. Our school is named after B. S.

If we want to develop speaking, reading and writing skills we ought to write spelling tests, compositions and dictations, to read more additional literature, to go on educational excursions and nature trips. We ought to acquire a profound and serious knowledge. Industriousness and responsibility, diligent work at the lessons, teacher’s encouragement gives us opportunity to develop good work habits.
