Text 1. Flood in 2010
“I think, snow and rain destroyed the Kyzyl-Agash dam in the Almaty region. The result was one of the worst floods in the history of our country. I am sure that our village was flooded very quickly. 2 thousand people from the Kyzyl-Agash settlement had to evacuate quickly because they might have been injured. The authorities promised to help us with the destroyed houses and pay 500 thousand tenge. I think that usually people can’t solve such serious problems without help” (Alibek, 25 years old).
The author is sure that the dam was destroyed in early autumn.
Alibek thinks the water from the dam quickly covered all the village.
The authorities refused to pay money to those people who suffered.

This year the summer was not the same as before, due to the quarantine, we could not go anywhere. Usually I went to Kazakhstan to see my relatives, but during this period I stayed in Omsk. What have I been doing all summer? The most important goal was to get enough sleep, since the school year was not easy. We also had a summer assignment in Russian language and literature. I read the assigned works and completed the assignment in Russian. In the evening I watched Turkish TV shows. My family and I went to the park, to the embankment. Since many of the shopping kits were closed, we walked in nature, and it's for the best. I also went out with my best friend. This summer I also spent a lot of time with a friend and thanks to her I learned new places in Omsk, we almost always walked around the city. Having lived in this city since my birth, I very rarely walk and know few beautiful places. We ate a lot in nature, especially on the waterfront, and I tried new dishes. Evening walks are mandatory with ice cream. In general, this summer was remembered for food)
