Ernest Hemingway
Ernest Hemingway is my favourite writer. So, I'll tell some words about E.H. He was born in 1899 in Onk Park near Chicago, he lived not very long, but his life was very interesting. He died in 1961 in Kechum. Since his childhood he was interesting in literature and he started writing his first short stories when he attended school. E.H. took part in the First World war. After the war he worked as corespondent, but soon he made up his mind to became a writer. His first novel was "FIESTA". It was the beginning of his successful literature career. This novel was followed by "A FAREWEL TO ARMS", which brought him a fame. E.H. was a man of action. He took part in all events that took place in the World's life. After the Spanish Civil war he wrote the novel "FOR WHOM THE BELL TOOLS". He got into the Second World War as a war corespondent. Some time past and E.H. published his book "ACROSS THE RIVER AND INTO THE TREES". For the short novel "THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA" , the writer got the Publisher's and the Nobel prizes for literature. It's a great pity, but it was one of last his works. The main theme of his books is man in the face of violence. Maybe it is the reason why he is so attractive and popular.
Differences in dictionary can be explained by turning to American history. The Americans borrowed words from those languages with which the English speaking colonists came into contact on the American continent: American Indian, French, Spanish. The Olympic Games are held every four years. There were no games in 1916 during the First World War and in 1940-1944 during the Second World War. We can see the deepest feeling for the nature of his own land and art in his great musical works 'In The Forest' and 'The Sea'. After long time our country's sportsmen took part in the Olympic Games over their own flag. In the last Olympic Games our basketball team won third place. We are very proud of them. Now, I would like to speak about the greatest English writer H.G. Wells. He was born in 1866 in Bromlyn (Kent). He became famous like science fiction writer. He wrote a lot of books which were translated in a lot of languages: "The Time Machine", "The Island Of Doctor Moore", "The Invisible Man", "The Worlds War"... There are a number of differences in spelling: for example Englishmen write "colour", Americans write "color". English - "metre" and Americans - "meter".
