Vaninsky district - Vysokogorny settlement. Vysokogorny (Khabarovsk Territory) Education and culture

Russia is my Motherland!
Russia is my favorite country,
“Russia is a powerful word!”
I'll say it proudly.

My name is Prokopchuk Ksenia. I am in 5th grade. I was born and live in the village of Vysokogorny. This is where my small homeland begins. I believe that the Motherland is the place where I was born, where my grandparents, mother and father live. The homeland is the most precious place on earth. Every person loves their homeland in their own way.

I love my homeland for its beautiful nature and rich vegetation. I love hills with impenetrable taiga. I love the cool river in the summer, colorful and fragrant flowers with butterflies in the meadows, and the singing of birds. I love clean and fresh air in winter. I even love the cawing of crows. I love my home, my yard, my parents, my friends. Because it’s all dear to me, it’s all mine. I love my village. Although, I believe that the village has a big drawback - there are no asphalt roads or sidewalks. But I hope that this problem will be solved in the near future. And I will be able to fulfill my dream - rollerblading on asphalt. But other than that, I really like our village. A new House of Culture was recently opened. It has become very fun in the village: they now hold many holidays, hold discos, and show films. Many clubs are held for children. I myself actively visit some of them. I go to a dance club, to drawing, to a puppet theater. I study English and skiing. I participate in all competitions, promotions and Olympiads. I lead an active and healthy lifestyle. And I can do all this thanks to my small Motherland. That's why I love her!

Every person should not only enjoy the benefits of their Motherland, but also take care of it and try to do something useful for it. For now, I can simply love nature and animals and not harm them, not litter the village with garbage. But for now, my main benefit is to successfully study and master knowledge, which is what I try to do. In the future, go to university and get a profession. Become a worthy and educated person and benefit your homeland.

But a small Motherland is unthinkable without a big Motherland - our great and vast country, Russia. I am happy and glad that I was born and live in this country, because only in this country do people live: hardworking, hospitable, courageous, heroic, creative and sympathetic. How much grief and devastation our people had to endure during the Second World War, but our people, showing courage, survived and won. And thanks to this, we live in peacetime, and there is peace in our country. And peace is the most important thing on earth. I am proud and love my Motherland, because it has such an intelligent and worthy president V.V. Putin, who does a lot for his people and the world as a whole. I feel proud that I am part of this country, part of this big world. Perhaps, as I get older, I will be able to more deeply appreciate and love our great Motherland. It’s hard for me to say now which Motherland is more valuable - the small one or the big one. But I know one thing: both the big and small Motherland are equally important to me. For me it is an inextricable whole. And I love them as much as I can.

I want our Motherland to become richer and more beautiful. It also depends on us, the youth. We must do our best. The future of our country lies with the younger generation. I love my Motherland very much and will always love it, even just because it exists!

  13. Excerpt characterizing Vysokogorny (Khabarovsk Territory)

    Anatole kissed the old man and looked at him curiously and completely calmly, waiting to see if the eccentric thing his father had promised would soon happen from him.
    Prince Nikolai Andreevich sat down in his usual place in the corner of the sofa, pulled an armchair towards him for Prince Vasily, pointed to it and began asking about political affairs and news. He listened as if with attention to Prince Vasily’s story, but constantly glanced at Princess Marya.
    – So they’re writing from Potsdam? - He repeated the last words of Prince Vasily and suddenly stood up and approached his daughter.
    - You cleaned up like that for the guests, huh? - he said. - Good, very good. In front of guests, you have a new hairstyle, and in front of guests, I tell you that in the future, don’t you dare change your clothes without my asking.
    “It’s me, mon pire, [father,] who is to blame,” the little princess interceded, blushing.
    “You have complete freedom,” said Prince Nikolai Andreevich, shuffling in front of his daughter-in-law, “but she has no reason to disfigure herself - she’s so bad.”
    And he sat down again, no longer paying attention to his daughter, who was brought to tears.
    “On the contrary, this hairstyle suits the princess very well,” said Prince Vasily.
    - Well, father, young prince, what is his name? - said Prince Nikolai Andreevich, turning to Anatoly, - come here, let’s talk, let’s get to know each other.
    “That’s when the fun begins,” thought Anatole and sat down next to the old prince with a smile.
    - Well, here's the thing: you, my dear, they say, were brought up abroad. Not the way the sexton taught me and your father to read and write. Tell me, my dear, are you now serving in the Horse Guards? - asked the old man, looking closely and intently at Anatole.
    “No, I joined the army,” answered Anatole, barely restraining himself from laughing.
    - A! good deal. Well, do you want, my dear, to serve the Tsar and the Fatherland? It's war time. Such a young man must serve, he must serve. Well, at the front?
    - No, prince. Our regiment set out. And I'm listed. What do I have to do with it, dad? - Anatole turned to his father with a laugh.
    - He serves well, well. What do I have to do with it! Ha ha ha! – Prince Nikolai Andreevich laughed.
    And Anatole laughed even louder. Suddenly Prince Nikolai Andreevich frowned.
    “Well, go,” he said to Anatoly.
    Anatole approached the ladies again with a smile.
    – After all, you raised them there abroad, Prince Vasily? A? - the old prince turned to Prince Vasily.
    – I did what I could; and I will tell you that the education there is much better than ours.
    - Yes, everything is different now, everything is new. Well done little guy! Well done! Well, let's go to my place.
    He took Prince Vasily by the arm and led him into the office.
    Prince Vasily, left alone with the prince, immediately announced to him his desire and hopes.
    “What do you think,” said the old prince angrily, “that I’m holding her and can’t part with her?” Imagine! – he said angrily. - At least tomorrow for me! I’ll just tell you that I want to know my son-in-law better. You know my rules: everything is open! I’ll ask you tomorrow: she wants it, then let him live. Let him live, I'll see. - The prince snorted.
    “Let him come out, I don’t care,” he shouted in that shrill voice with which he shouted when saying goodbye to his son.
    “I’ll tell you straight,” said Prince Vasily in the tone of a cunning man, convinced of the needlessness of being cunning in front of the insight of his interlocutor. – You see right through people. Anatole is not a genius, but an honest, kind fellow, a wonderful son and dear one.
    - Well, well, okay, we'll see.
    As always happens for single women who have lived for a long time without male society, when Anatole appeared, all three women in the house of Prince Nikolai Andreevich equally felt that their life had not been life before that time. The power to think, feel, and observe instantly increased tenfold in all of them, and as if it had hitherto been happening in darkness, their lives were suddenly illuminated with a new light, full of meaning.
    Princess Marya did not think or remember at all about her face and hairstyle. The handsome, open face of the man who might be her husband absorbed all her attention. He seemed to her kind, brave, decisive, courageous and generous. She was convinced of it. Thousands of dreams about a future family life constantly arose in her imagination. She drove them away and tried to hide them.
    “But am I too cold with him? - thought Princess Marya. “I try to restrain myself, because deep down I feel too close to him; but he doesn’t know everything that I think about him, and he can imagine that he is unpleasant to me.”
    And Princess Marya tried and failed to be polite to the new guest. “La pauvre fille! “Elle est diablement laide,” [Poor girl, she’s devilishly ugly,] Anatole thought about her.
    M lle Bourienne, also raised to a high degree of excitement by Anatole's arrival, thought in a different way. Of course, a beautiful young girl without a certain position in the world, without relatives and friends and even a homeland, did not think of devoting her life to the services of Prince Nikolai Andreevich, reading books to him and friendship with Princess Marya. M lle Bourienne has long been waiting for that Russian prince who will immediately be able to appreciate her superiority over the Russian, bad, poorly dressed, awkward princesses, fall in love with her and take her away; and this Russian prince finally arrived. M lle Bourienne had a story that she heard from her aunt, completed by herself, which she loved to repeat in her imagination. It was a story about how a seduced girl introduced herself to her poor mother, sa pauvre mere, and reproached her for giving herself to a man without marriage. M lle Bourienne was often moved to tears, telling him, the seducer, this story in her imagination. Now this he, a real Russian prince, has appeared. He will take her away, then ma pauvre mere will appear, and he will marry her. This is how her entire future story took shape in M ​​lle Bourienne’s head, while she was talking to him about Paris. It was not calculations that guided m lle Bourienne (she didn’t even think for a minute about what she should do), but all this had been ready in her for a long time and now only grouped around the appeared Anatole, whom she wanted and tried to please as much as possible.
