I'm really in love with trees. I like Moscow and the city center - it's honestly pretty. All these old structures and new modernized buildings. But there is so little greenery there! I very much enjoy coming to the place where I live because there are so many trees! It's easier to breathe and it makes my eyes happy. In summer everything is green, in spring everything is blooming, and in fall and winter it's a real fairy tale. I can say with certainty that I could not live in an area where there is too much concrete.
As I've gotten older, I've become more attracted to quiet places with lots of nature. I absolutely love walking through parks and forests. It's the kind of thing that no human hand can create. I think there is a lot of hidden beauty around that we often don't notice.

I think that I really like coniferous trees, firstly they are very beautiful and so high. Their crowns stretch into the sky and it is unspeakably exciting to watch the sky, flowing clouds through green high branches. Secondly, coniferous trees provide air with oxygen, that’s why it’s wholesome to walk in such forests. As for my family sometimes we go to pinewood - we wander, run or play with siblings, so coniferous trees are also associated with joyful girlhood.

There are PADDY-FIELDS in the East.
This area is PRONE TO DROUGHT, RAINFALL is very low. There are a lot of trees, including CONIFEROUS, DECIDUOUS AND EVERGREEN TREES.

I think I am a tree lover. And the more I am, the longer I am in the city, and the further I am from any forest or grove. I deeply love coniferous trees, - maybe it is because I came from the North, and a lot of forests in the area where I live are coniferous. Spruces, pines, firs, and larches grow there.
I like the smell of coniferous trees. Especially in the autumn, when it is mixed with the smell of fallen foliage. Pine forests are also very bright and, I'll say, transparent. The light of the sun always pours between the branches and trunks of pines. Pines seem to me very tender and very strong at the same time, and pine forests always comfort me and grant me with peace.

| Describe Russia (its climate, vegetation, agriculture, industry, population) using words from the unit.
Russia is a vast country spanning two continents, Europe and Asia.
The climate varies from arctic in the north to subarctic in most regions, temperate in the European part, and continental in Siberia.
The vegetation in Russia includes forests, steppes, tundra, and taiga. The southern regions have fertile soils, while the northern areas are prone to permafrost and limited vegetation.
Agriculture plays a significant role in Russia's economy, with major crops including wheat, oats, potatoes, and vegetables. However, agricultural productivity can be impacted by the challenging climate and vast land area.
Russia has a diverse industrial sector, including oil and gas, mining, manufacturing, and aerospace.
The population of Russia is around 146 million people. It is the largest country by land area but faces demographic challenges such as an aging population and low birth rates. Major cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg are centers of economic activity and cultural significance.

DROUGHT is type of weather condition typical for some places like deserts. Such areas are called ARID and they don't get much RAINFALL. Other places are PRONE TO heavy rainfall and can sometimes experience FLOODS.

The problem of the growing number of immigrants is quite relevant. There are many people from the Middle East in Russia in particular and in most developed countries globally. However, another issue occurs. Thousands of Russians have left the country. That made me wonder if I could consider becoming an emigrant.
Though I’m eager to study abroad and am the biggest fan of travelling - thanks to my wonderful parents I have visited many countries all around the world - I don’t want to leave Russia as it is my motherland. That’s the place I love, the place where I have grown up, the place where my family and friends are, the place where everything I can call mine is. The motivation of people who are moving today is obvious, I don’t want to condemn them, I can only be compassionate.

She adored RAINFALL, as well as waterfalls, PADDY FIELDS and CONIFEROUS forests. The EVERGREEN trees, “everfalling” water and long, endless fields were making her think of life everlasting.

| Why is the number of immigrants growing in the developed countries, including Russia?
The increasing number of immigrants in developed countries can be caused by various factors. Developed countries usually offer more job and career opportunities. Migrants are looking for better working and living conditions and prospects for improving their well-being. There are also some immigrants who choose countries with advanced education systems to get a quality education. Students and specialists from all over the world are attracted by universities and research centres. In my opinion, the number of immigrants may also be influenced by the existence of talent attraction programmes, refugee programmes or other migration policies.

1 Brazil has a varied climate where abundant RAINFALL, contributes to the rich vegetation and Amazon Rainforest. 2 Despite being known as a tropical country, northeastern regions of Brazil experience an ARID climate with limited rainfall, challenging agriculture. 3 Brazil is impressive in its diversity of VEGETATION, where the vast Amazon Rainforest, savannahs and unique ecosystems form the country's rich landscape.
