Visual writing task.
I see a lot of people around me. They scream, wave hands and hold posters with different slogans such as: «Bernie, you have the biggest stomach in the world! » or «Forward, John, show your teeth, man! » There are 7 tables covered with white clothes just in front of me. Seven women appear on the stage with huge plates full of hotdogs and put them on the tables. I can feel appetizing smell of fried sausages and freshly baked rolls. People begin to shout louder and point their fingers at seven giant men with the flags of different countries; I can recognize Japan, the USA and Russia. These persons come to the tables, take one hotdog in a hand and wait. Loud whistle! The men with fantastic speed start to eat their hotdogs. Fans support the participants with the funny chants such as: «Go, Mark, go! Don’t eat your hotdog slow! » The players snatch food with two hands and push it into their mouths, then swallow huge parts without chewing. Their eyes are protruding, cheeks are red and their clothes are covered with pierces of sausages and crumbs of bread, their hands, faces and necks are smeared with mayonnaise and ketchup. I can hear how loudly they champ. The Japan player raises his hand – he can’t eat anymore. Two people take him from the field. Four more men give up and leave the tables with food. Only two persons continue to eat: the dark-haired guy from the USA and fair Russian in the blue T-shirt with a slogan «I love my daughter! » They eat much slower and stare at each other. Suddenly, the American player catches at his stomach and falls to the ground. «And in this competition with a result 67 hotdogs for 10 minutes and 5 seconds wins Andrew Krasov from Russia! », - the referee announces.
