Смешные факты! – Funny facts!
Nowadays there are a lot of funny facts which are really amusing. You can find them in the Internet. For instance, you go to www. google. com and write funny facts. You know that the sexiest woman (I think so), Marilyn Monroe, had six toes on one foot. She needed to do more time for pedicure on one foot that the other. I was really surprised that China has more English speakers than the United States of America. Do you know what “I am” is? It is the shortest complete sentence in the English language. When you need to cut something, you use scissors. Did you know who had invented scissors?
Right, it was Leonardo Da Vinci. My favorite comic isDonald Duck but one time he was banned in Finland because he did not wear trousers. Do you know who does not have brains? It is a starfish. Do you think that Chinese people are more than anybody else in the world? No, no, no. You were wrong because there are more chickens than people in the world. Do you know who dies the most rapidly in the world? It is a dragonfly because he has a lifespan of 24 hours. As for me, those facts I find really funny. Maybe you can find more interesting facts than I do and you can write about essays. Have fun!
