The introduction "Never say these things"

-
When I was in the 9th grade, as I remember now, the teacher called me to the blackboard to solve the example. I don't have time to get to the boards, as she began to speak very destructive criticism with insults towards my sister. Do you think this is normal for a teacher? I don't think so either. But I couldn't say a word because I was shocked. It was more shocking what the person who works with children said this things. And there are lots of reasons, why she told this and in this way.

    Wow, this is a really strong story, though a little bit too negative. I know it's for the sake of the topic sentence but anyway... Honestly, I didn't get the "sister" part. Was she in that class too?

    So, I'd suggest that you softened the story a bit (by vocab and emotional apeal) in order not to make your audience feel as if you were complainning.

    For instance, "I guess that day the teacher didn't really feel well or something happended to her beloved cat.. But she started complaining on me for not hurrying to solve that equation (уравнение). Honestly, I was so puzzled that I couldn't utter a word. Then that situation made me think why people were so rude sometimes?" In my reflections, I realized it is ignorance (or whatever you what to put here) that drives people to say things they'd better not to. " - topic sentence.

    This is just an example, and it's abosuletly up to you ;)

#challenge № 6

Hello, my dear readers! Today I will tell you about my 6th challenge. I always congratulated my friends and some of relatives through the messages on my phone. But Yesterday my brother selebrated his birthday and I decided to congratulate him in reality. I don't know, why I feel so awkward myself, when I do this in real life.      Often I forgot words, which I want to say, although in my head I imagine what I say to person and what his reaction. I mustered the courage and decided to say some words to my brother with all the guests were sitting at the table. When I stood up I felt some excitement and I felt my knees tremble. But when I started speak, I felt how this excitement gradually fade away and my voice grew more confident. And I cried at my own words, I don't know why it happened. I guess I'm too emotional to make these kinds of speeches, and that's why I'm so scared and afraid of it. But I realized one important thing that evening: don't be afra...

The last challenge was the most difficult... I went alone to completely unfamiliar place where are the people who I didn't know. I went in Academcity with my friend last week. We wanted just relax and she wanted to visit her sister. We spend there about 2 days. And on the second day I decided to go to the science cafe "Eureka", where was Oleg Kugaev who talked about his discoveries. He told about his photographic discoveries of the past year: in 2018, he was looking for a snow leopard in Altai, went with his son to play in one of the largest sandboxes in the world — in the Gobi desert, shot a movie in Carrara. It was very interesting to listen to him and watch photos. I even forgot about my phone and didn't pull out it from my bag.  I went alone there and even didn't feel uncomfortable. There was cosy atmosphere and all people were friendly. To my astonishment, I felt myself very relaxed and didn't feel loneliness.

Hello! Today I'm going to tell you about my 9th challenge: to defend my point of view. It was difficult. I was arguing with my brother about the serial "the Flash". He doesn't like films and serials about superheroes, but I'm fond of it.  And one day we wanted to watch film, but we didn't know what film. At first I offered to watch a comedy, my brother refused. Then I said to him, "what are your suggestions?". He proposed horrors, I was adamant and immediately refused. Suggested to watch the series "the Flash" and this is where our argument began.  My brother didn't even see the show and was biased. I said it's a very popular series and most people like it. this argument did not work, I listened to a very large number of criticism.  No, we didn't yell at each other, we just argued. We argued for  an hour or so and I gave a lot of arguments, but did not retreat. Then I just said, "Let's watch a few minutes of the ...
