When they completehigh grades they can either continue
to study at school for more 2 years, or goto a professional school where they study not only main subjects , but are ableto learn some profession. When school pupils leave school they can try tocontinue their education in institutes or universities.

Russian people are many hospitable. When you meet a Russian person whois man you most take his hand and shake it. If is woman you could kiss heron the cheek. When addressing a Russianperson if is polite to use theirname then their second name. When you are sitting in the public transport youmost give your seat to older people.
If you are invited to someone s home youcould bring something for drink or for tea. When you re eating a meal withRussian people use a spoon and a folk. Finally, you should never be rude withRussian people, because they are very unpredictable race. Asfor me there is only one answer Moscow is the city I will never tire ofcalling of home.
