1)My free time
First of all, I would like to say that I am fond of spending time with my family, relatives and friends. I am keen on communicating with them. I’m fond of watching figure skating, gymnastics, soccer, basketball, hockey matches and championships, especially World and European, Olympic Game. It is true that we live in a complex and stressful world. We all in a hurry and our leisure time is more valuable than ever before. Personally, I prefer to spend my free time outdoors for the following reasons. Firstly, I believe that nowadays we spend more time indoor than our ancestors did. So, we have lost the link with the nature and as a result we face health problems, stress and depression. Therefore we have to spend our leisure time outdoors to balance this situation. That is why I prefer walking in the park near my home or swimming in the sea than stay into my home in my free time. Secondly, it seems to me that we live more and more in solitude. We live in huge blocks of flats with hundreds neighborhoods but in many cases we do not know anybody. If we spend our free time into our apartments we increase the isolation and the loneliness. In my view, the best solution is to find occasions to meet people and it is better for example to do team sports outdoor than exercise alone in a private gym. Taking everything into consideration, I believe that it is better to spend our leisure time outdoors, in social activities or team sports than be inside for private activities because I am convinced that we have to link again with the nature if we want to have a balanced life.

2)Popular sports and games in Azerbaijan
Sport in Azerbaijan has ancient roots, and even now, both traditional and modern sports are still practiced. Freestyle wrestling has been traditionally regarded as Azerbaijan's national sport, however today, the most popular sports in Azerbaijan are football and chess.

    In the story of “baseball and the facts of life” There are two sides to the event regarding Brett and his coach. Regarding Brett for his lack of playing time in the field or batting and Brett only plays one inning in each game while also destroying his love for the sport of baseball. He was still very dedicated to his team and tried his hardest the coach still put him in one inning a game which in my mind is very mean because he’ll really won’t get better if he can’t play. The coach’s side however he is very competitive and insensitive toward his players. The coach seemed to only want to win and nothing else and didn’t care for the less skilled players. The coach also never notices the eager look in Brett’s eyes every time he is took out that he is going to be put back in. when the other players are fooling around. Brett is ruthless and competitiveness clearly shows, especially when the coach took Brett right out of the game as one of the better players showed up.…

    There were two major historical turning points during this period; Reconstruction and the Industrial Revolution. With the end of the Civil War in 1865 came the Reconstruction Era which lasted until 1877. During this time the federal government attempted to resolve the issues that resulted from the ending of the Civil War. Although physical rebuilding of the region began quickly and rapidly progressed, reconstructing southern society proved to be a much more difficult process. The two major concerns were from the political stand point on how to integrate rebel states back into the nation and from the social stand point on how to integrate 4 million newly freed slaves back into society.…

    #1. "From Working Poor to Elite Scholar" One of the proudest accomplishments of my life was earning my college degree, despite the fact that my early adulthood pointed in the opposite direction, beginning with my marriage at the age of 19. Throughout the 1990s I lived as one of the "working poor," someone who slipped through the cracks of supposedly historic prosperity. By the age of 25 I was divorced and frustrated with menial, low-paying jobs: clerk, receptionist, and housecleaner. There is nothing like scrubbing someone else 's toilet to inspire one with determination toward obtaining an education. Because of my absolute commitment toward earning my degree, I got a flexible shift at a retail warehouse which enabled me to acquire my degree while supporting myself financially. Enrolled at the local community college, I experienced a different world opening up to me; excited by a new encouraging environment, I excelled academically. I learned that if I tried hard, I could succeed; if I wanted something badly enough, I possessed the ability to take advantage of these opportunities. I worked a minimum 35-hour workweek for five years to put myself through school without succumbing to the temptation of a student loan. I paid tuition up front with the money I earned. It was the example of my mother, a Puerto Rican immigrant working diligently to provide for her family, who instilled a work ethic into me that has stood me in good stead. With a lifelong passion for history, I have developed an interest in the cultural history of early modern and modern Europeans, especially women 's history. The experiences of ordinary women fascinate me: how they constitute their world through popular folk tales and literature; how the seemingly irrational paradoxes of the past to modern eyes are completely rational when taken within the historical context; and finally, how these historical changes and transformations in culture constitute the present. I enjoy studying the early…

    The political change set off spatial transformation and patterns of urban renewal in the city that are both celebrated and contested by the people. Cities are seats of power and arenas of contro: they are where major economic, social, and political activity takes place and also sites of international competition takes place.
