Introduction
As requested, I have researched THE RESULTS OF THE PARTICIPATION OF RUSSIA IN THE PREVIOUS GAMES. The results are presented below.

Medals at summer sports and by summer games.

The most successful years was 1996 (Atlanta) and 2000 (Sydney). Russia took two second places. Total number of medals in Atlanta- 63, in Sydney- 89. Difficult year was 2012 when we took only the 4-th place. The biggest number of medals in summer Olimpics brings Athletics, 79 medals including 27 gold medals, 26 silver and 26 bronze.

Summer

This summer was perfect! The most unforgettable moment was a trip to St. Petersburg!
This is the very exiting town with a lot of site seeing. Every place in this town has it's own history. We had the group of nearly 25 students. We all have become a good friends very quickly. We spend there only weak, but it was the best weak in summer! Every day we went to the center and look at the site seeing, from 10 till 6. The most beautiful and splendid were Hermetag and Savior on Spilled Blood. The history of these plases are very interesting and pictures in Hermetag were wonderful! But the best funny moments were in hotel, when we returned from the center in our rooms. We were going together in one room and were playing cards, sometimes in one kaloda were 118 cards or more!:) Or we played mafia...This game was the most funny, because all of us couldn't
lie and then didn't laugh:) So this trip was very cool!:) Other months I were at the Volga all days!:) And all August I spend on competitions. This month was very difficult, but I took three first places and one second! I never forget this summer, because it was very, very funny!!!

Dear, Nick,

Thanks a lot for your letter. I'm glad to hear you.It's very nice, that you ask me for advice, I'm always ready
to help.

I was very sorry to hear about the argument you had with your parents about your summer holidays. To be honest, if you ask me about that, I think I will tell the same your parents. That's why they love you and
know, that now you are in the age, when you don't think what you are doing. But in the other way,
staying at home on summer holidays is very boring and uninteresting.

My advice would be to take your parents and friend's parents with you. You and your friends will be
resting on a one side and your parents on the other. You'll be glad to spend time with friends, and parents won't worry about you and will have a good time too. I think it's a best way to deal with this problem.

Well, I'd better go now to buy a present for my mother's birthday.

Write back soon!
Love,
Liza

I went to ATP for kids.

Have you ever take part in ATP for kids? I have. It was the most unforgettable experience in my life!

Before it started I was very afraid, because my competitor was fifteenth years old while I was 12 years.

When I went out on tennis court, everyone clapped me and I've never felt so fear. Then we started. First 2
sets ended in a draw(ничья) so I had a very big rush. Three games in the third set she won and I won three games
too. So we had to play a deceive time break. It lasted 40 min. It was very hard.In the end I won. The first few seconds I didn't understand why I was congratulated, because I was very tired due the fact that the game lasted
3,5 hours without stopping.

It was the best tournament I've ever had. So I never forget this time and I want to take part in this competition again.

We are doing the problem for a long time in mathematics and eventually find a solution.
