Interview with Aleksandr Ivanov

Last weekend our journalist met Olympic skier Aleksandr Ivanov to ask him about his life and
work.
Experience
I’m from St Petersburg in the north-west of Russia but I’m living in Alberta, Canada at the
moment because it’s where some of the greatest skiing teachers are. My wife and three
children are still at home but I’m going to go back to Russia in two months. I learned to ski
when I was four years old and that’s normal for Russian children because it always snows a
lot in winter. I was lucky because a famous skier, Oleg Semenov, knew my father and
together they helped me to get better and better until I could ski at the highest level. Because
I travel a lot, I’ve learned a lot of languages – English, German and French. I think French is
the easiest.
Lifestyle and tastes

I work hard. I get up at 5 a.m., go to the gym for two hours, then go out in the snow for 5 or 6
hours every day. I eat healthily and I haven’t drunk any alcohol for many years. At home in
Russia, I have dinner with my family in the evening. I often cook the meal because I find it
helps me to relax. Sometimes we go out to the theatre, but most evenings I prefer to relax at
home and listen to classical music or watch a film on TV. I also play the piano – my wife says
quite badly – and I enjoy taking photos. There are some of my photos in one of the art
galleries in St Petersburg.
Places
I have fallen in love with Canada. The Nordic Centre where I train is in Canmore, Alberta and
the mountains here are fantastic. I’m going to come back next year. Another favourite place
is Geneva in Switzerland. Of course, I’ve been there to ski but I’ve also visited in summer
when it is very sunny and warm. It’s an interesting city but it isn’t cheap so you can’t go out
every night. There’s a lot to see and last year I had a nice surprise when I found a beautiful
Russian church. I feel very comfortable in Geneva.
Example: Aleksandr Ivanov has two children.

A True  B False  C Doesn’t say 
1 Aleksandr’s family live in St Petersburg.
