2 c) *Напишите, что важнее для изучения языков — врожденный талант или ежедневная работа. Используйте одно из начал из рамки.

Ответ:

I think that everyday work is more important than natural talent for studying languages. In the story, Andrei had a talent, but he was lazy and didn't do his homework. He failed the Olympiad. Pavel worked hard every day and he won the first prize. This shows that if you work hard, you can be better than a talented person who doesn't work. Therefore, everyday work is the key to success. / Я думаю, что ежедневная работа важнее врожденного таланта для изучения языков. В рассказе у Андрея был талант, но он был ленив и не делал домашнюю работу. Он провалил олимпиаду. Павел усердно работал каждый день, и он выиграл первый приз. Это показывает, что если ты усердно работаешь, ты можешь стать лучше, чем талантливый человек, который не работает. Поэтому ежедневный труд — это ключ к успеху.
