KAIT homework

In the first picture there are four children and a poor looking house. In the background we can see strange plants which means that this picture wasn´t taken in Czech Republic. Probably it is somewhere in hot country, for example Africa, because of very bright and sunny weather. Perhaps, the foto was taken during holidays, by tourists, who were going to discover new countries. The four children in the middle of the picture have black skin and they look like they are from poor family, because of their clothes. But even thought, they are happy when somebody come to them and take foto with them, or just talk to them.
There are also very dangerous looking props, beacuse they are not tiled and if you ask me, they are also rickety. In the front of the house there are two crates probably for rucksacks. And in the background there is   a house. It seems to me that it is some kind of bungalow or cottage which is created from clay. The house is also without windows and in my opinion the roof is extremely flammable, because of dry palm leaves.
In the house, there is very interesting thing looking like a compost. But probably it isn´t. What would do compost in the house.
This foto was taken probably for purpose to show, how people in other countries live.


In the second picture there are a people and a very nice looking pub. The picture is taken in typical Czech pub or restaurant. It is taken also in, I think summer holidays, because of very bright and sunny weather, and also because people have no jackets or sweatshirts. In the picture there are seven people. In the front of the picture there are an old woman and old man. The woman has a grey hair and many shapes on her t-shirt. It seems to me she is wearing sport glasses. The man looks very happy. because of nice restaurant and enjoying great beer. He has also glasses. And it looks like he have a pub cap. Next to the man there is also a child. The child is probably a boy. He wears also sport glasses and he has typical Czech habit = socks in the sandals :) . He looks very bored, maybe, because he has flu and he can´t enjoy this time well. In the back of these people, there are two women. The blond one looks like she is talking to old woman. And in the background there are two men. The one looks like a waiter, because he wears white shirt and black pants. On the wall of the restaurant there is a climbing plant, without blooms. In the background on the wall there is also sign. On the sign it could be kofola, a typical Czech drink. In the one of the windows, there is also dangerous plant. Dangerous, because it is in bad place and can fall on old woman´s head. This picture was taken, because of these people wanted to keep this moment for years.

Next, Czech cuisine is based on meat. Meat is nearly in every food.
Also dumplings is typical to Czech cuisine which are made of  wheat flour and stale bread.

5) I would never eat and drink.

I think there is nothing that I never would try. I love challenges and I love to discover the tastes of world.
I´m really would try to eat the fried bugs and this little creature, which people eat in the other country.
I´m just type of man who tried everything.
Yes that´s true i don´t like some foods "koprovka" "rajská" but i don´t hate it.

My forced resolution

So, I don´t like this new years resolution, because I think that people can make resolution all year, but ok.
For me is resolution like a promise with crossed fingers, because you know, it is hard to keep it. I always start to do something what I ban to myself, or even don´t start with my resolution.

For example i choose to be more communicative in the lessons, but I think this is unrealizable thing for me. I just can´t make the first step in it. So, I doubt very, that I will start with this, because of my personality. This is very hard for me.



But my next  resolution is don´t be so long on my PC. I´m there about 4 hours per day and it is quite long, so I must regulate it little bit. This resolution is easier for me than the first, but I will try to keep both this my resolutions.
