Olga, 23.10 Огромное Вам спасибо за рефераты, я сегодня их забрала и прочитала, в понедельник поедем сдавать в экстернат. Не могу не сказать Вам, что Вы очень талантливый и тонкий человек. Я хорошо знаю, что образование, каким бы качественным оно не было, не даёт возможности безошибочно почувствовать поставленную задачу. Высокое качество Ваших работ бесспорно, однако меня больше всего поразила точность и артистичность не просто реализации цели и задач исследования, а исполнения АВТОРСКОЙ по духу работы: в нашем случае это не просто рефераты на заданную тему, а рефераты совершенно определённого качественно (в смысле возраста, уровня образования и т.п.) автора. Выражаю Вам своё восхищение, надеюсь на дальнейшее сотрудничество.
