when pages of this remarkable textbook
appeared on the russian internet, the publication was met with
disbelief. many doubted it was a genuine textbook that was actually used
in
american universities
to teach
russian. Cocon of the dull (BF) of Bavie's - which is an Habon, which is about a year old. But I

it continues "where do they work? they work in
factories. how do they work? they work with enthusiasm.
what do they do in parks? in parks they think about
life. about what life? about life in factories. that's

memorize concerned a lazy construction worker. lo
