I have such a function(view) 

def index(request):
    return render_to_response('index.html', context_instance=RequestContext(request))

and want to write just 

return render_to_response('index.html')

Also I want to pass additional variables to view 

return render_to_response('cart.html', {'key': value})

The main reason I need RequestContext is that I have context processor function that sets additional variables for me. How can I achieve that or is there different approach for doing such a thing?

You can use the render shortcut:

return render(request, 'cart.html', {'key': value})

You always need to pass the request, though: that's why it's called a RequestContext.
