Every
Friday afternoon Mr. Frank Morris gave a press conference. He allowed art
critics to call on him and told them what he thought about art. However, he
refused to talk about his technique. He said that a painter’s technique was an
inseparable part of his personality and as such it was simply indescribable. In
Mr. Morris’s opinion, speaking about technical aspects of painting was
unpardonable. To do so was to reduce art to the status of handicraft. And
nothing can be more humiliating to a true artist than being compared to.
The doctor said that Ronald was running a high temperature. She added that Ronald was sneezing and coughing than but she was sure that Ronald would be much better in a few days.The doctor admitted that it wasn’t serious.

The doctor asked Mrs Bell to go and buy the medicine.The doctor told Ronald to stay in bed for 3 days at least( или she told Ronald that he should stay in bed for 3 days at least).The doctor advised him to drink warm milk with honey or mineral water. Doctor Green noted that Ronald would recover soon.The doctor encouraged him. Doctor Green mentioned that he would send a specialist to have a look at his right side.She said good bye and left the room.

Tsunami Цунами
There are various natural disasters in the world and tsunami is one of them. Some people call it a tidal wave or a seismic sea wave. The main reason of tsunami is a submarine earthquake, when there is an underwater landslide. However, the volcanic eruptions can also cause it. Some countries and regions are especially prone to this disaster, for example, China, Japan, Chile, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Philippines. The biggest tsunami in the history took place in 1958 at Alaskan Lituya Bay. The force of wave then reached 1720 feet above sea level. Normally, ocean tsunamis reach heights of over 100 feet. Even the mildest walls of water can cause widespread destruction. Another notable tsunami took place on the Indonesian island of Sumatra in December, 2004. A strong earthquake displaced the ocean floor off the island. More than 200, 000 people were killed within a few hours. For better understanding of tsunami, we should know what the earthquake is. Dozens of tectonic plates support the earth. These large floating pieces are constantly moving. The earthquake happens when two plates become stuck. Unfortunately, nothing can be done to prevent tsunami, except monitoring minor weather and geological changes. Scientists work hard to understand where and how the future tsunamis develop. They also record the size and the frequency of previous tsunamis to make all the necessary calculations. Today, the best way to fight this disaster is to understand the ocean floor structure and to learn the tsunami data. For civil people, the best way of defense is early warning that allows them to find the shelter on higher ground.
