Раздел 2. ЗАДАНИЯ ПО ЧТЕНИЮ

В2.

  1. Names of places sometimes refer to certain events in the history of a country.

  2. Names of places often point to what these places looked like.

  3. Names from other languages sometimes indicate who inhabited a place in the past.

  4. Sometimes names of places include elements taken from different languages.

  5. Words from different languages can be seen in the names of American places.

  6. There are lots of places that have taken their names from famous people.



  1. We do not know when men began to give names to the places they lived and to the seas, rivers, lakes and mountains around them. Very often they invented a name that described a place in a certain way, for example, Bear Mountain, White Lake or Big Canyon. The water in the Dead Sea is so salty that nothing can live in it so the reason for the name is clear. The water in the Black Sea is not black but blue. However, when the ancient Greeks looked to the east, they often saw dark storm clouds over the water, and so they named it the Black Sea. The Pacific Ocean is known for its terrible storms. Yet, on the day when the Spanish explorer, balboa, first saw it, the ocean was quiet in the bright sunlight, and so he called it the Pacific which means peaceful.

  2. From the names of places we are often able to tell who the people in the past were. There are lots of towns and cities whose names end in -pol. We can be sure, even without reading history books, that the Greeks settled in certain places during ancient times and gave them their names with -polis which means "city" in Greek.

  3. Sometimes elements of different languages influence the names of places. In the name of Shakespeare's birthplace, Stratford-upon-Avon, we see four words from three different languages. In this town, a Roman road (in Latin strata) crossed the Avon (in the Welsh language, the word afon means a river). The English word ford means a place where we can cross a river. So the name Stratford-upon-Avon means the place where the road crosses the river. From this we know that at different times, Roman, Welsh and English people lived here.

  4. The oldest names of places in the USA, as you can guess, are American Indian. They are mostly the names of what people saw in nature: mountains, lakes, rivers and waterfalls. The name of America's greatest river, the Mississippi, is made from two American Indian words: misi (great) and sipi (water). Like all ancient names, these American Indian names were passed on from father to son by word of mouth. They were not written down, only spoken. Europeans found the names very difficult to pronounce and so they said them in ways closer to their own languages.

  5. The Europeans who came to America renamed many of the mountains, lakes and rivers, and gave names to the new towns they built. We can easily tell where Europeans from different countries settled in America by looking at the original names. There are English names in the northeast and along the eastern coast, for example, New London, Portland, New York. There are Dutch names in many districts of New York (Brooklyn, Harlem) and in other parts of New York State and Spanish names in Florida. There are lots of French names in the southern states and along the Mississippi. The oldest names in the west - in the states of California, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona - are Spanish.





What finally awoke Ben was the engine coughing.

"Please wake up!" shouted Davy. "What's the matter?"

"Push the lever forward," whispered Ben.

Davy couldn't have known about the lever and now Ben wasn't able to point to it. But the boy saw the direction of his father's eyes in time and the engine took up again.

"What direction do I take?" Davy cried again. "You're not telling me how to get the right direction."

"Follow the coast. Keep it on your right. And for God's sake, don't do anything else. It'll be all right, Davy …" Ben could see the sharp profile of Davy's pale face with his dark eyes. The boy had remembered how to level off and to keep the speed. "He'll do it," Ben whispered to himself and then fainted again.

At three thousand feet, on his own, Davy did not think he could ever cry again. He had run out of tears. He had boasted only once in his ten years of life that his father was a pilot. He had remembered everything his father had told him about flying, but he had guessed a lot more that his father had not told him. Now Davy couldn't even look at his father because he was horrible covered in blood. He didn't want his father to die, but he knew that it was now a possibility. People did die.

The tears that Davy thought had dried up in him were now in his dark eyes, and he felt them running down his cheeks.

Ben felt a sharp pain and opened his eyes. "Davy! What's happened? What are you doing!" he managed to shout.

"We are almost there. I can see the buildings of Cairo," Davy said. "But the plane doesn't want to go down."

"Cut your engine. …"

"I did, but it doesn't seem to make a difference."

"Use the tail lever," Ben said, and the plane put its nose down into a dive.

"Cut your engine!" Ben shouted again. He knew that getting a plane off the ground and flying it was easy but getting it down was another thing. The wind was blowing them back up. They lost air speed now because the nose was up. If the engine stopped at this height in this wind, they'd crash into a thousand pieces. …

They were approaching the airfield and the dust was like a yellow sea over the land. But then Ben saw the plane. "Look out! You'll hit that plane," Ben yelled.

Ben could see a big four-engined plane that was taking off. If it was only taking off and not testing its motors, they'd be all right. Ben closed his eyes and when he opened them again, the big plane was directly in their path but moving so quickly that they were going to miss it.

Now the yellow dust was just below them. "Six inches," Ben cried to Davy painfully. "Six inches, Davy … Wait! Not yet! Not yet …!" he cried.

It was when they reached the last inch from the ground that Ben lost his nerve at last. He was trying to shout, "Now! Now! Now!" but fainted again. He hardly felt it when the plane's wheels hit the ground. When the plane's tail finally touched down, Ben knew it was the last inch of it. The plane moved uncontrollably for a while and when at last it stopped dead, he heard only silence and thought that it wasn't time to give in yet.



A5. Davy loved his father.

1) True 2) False 3) Not stated

A6. Getting the plane down wasn't particularly dangerous.

1) True 2) False 3) Not stated

A7. They nearly hit a big plane.

1) True 2) False 3) Not stated

A8. Ben wasn't scared while flying.

A. A wonderful surprise

B. A real day off

C. An exciting event

D. The winners

E. Dull morning

F. Tastes differ



  1. Saturday morning was not encouraging at all. It looked like rain and I didn't feel like getting out of bed.

  2. Everything changed when my Dad came into the room and handed me a ticket - a ticket to an auto show. It took me seconds to get dressed and at breakfast we discussed our plans. Even Mum seemed to be excited about the show and kept talking about it over her tea.

  3. The sky was clearing up by the time we took our seats at the stand and, to our delight, the weather got better. The show was great! These very brave people called stuntmen were driving different cars and motorcycles. They did "wheelies" - a trick when they drive a motorcycle on one wheel. They drove a car through fire on two wheels and then their cars jumped over another car. I knew that some of the stuntmen had taken part in shooting (съемки) action films. They did such dangerous and risky tricks. We were cheering them on and Mum was wondering how they managed to keep the cars in one piece after performing all of those tricks.

  4. When the show was over, we went to a special place where lots of cars were on exhibit. There were some old-fashioned cars which dated back to 1920s - 1930s and a long row of Hondas, Fords, Toyotas, BMWs, Chryslers, Lexus, Dodges, and Mercedes. Mum liked a black Rolls Royce because it looked expensive and romantic as if from an old film, but Dad's and my choice was an open top Hummer H2.

  5. We spent the rest of the day watching the cars and admiring them. I don't know if I'll ever go to an auto show again but it was my idea of a real day out.

The family has always been very important in all times and societies. However, contemporary families differ a lot from large traditional families. A traditional, or extended, family had a similar structure in different countries. It consisted of several generations and was headed by the eldest man in the family. For example, an ideal traditional Chinese family consisted of the head of the family and his wife, their three or four sons and their wives (the daughters didn't live in the family as they moved to their husbands' families after the wedding) and a dozen grandchildren. People lived shorter lives then, and that's why usually there were no more than three generations in a family.

Children were absolutely dependent on their parents and grandparents, and the status, role and behaviour of each member of the family were strictly regulated. Nobody could break the rules. The interests of the family were above the interests of an individual member. If anyone ignored or betrayed the family interests, they were punished very severely. Most traditional families in Russia, Ukraine, and Poland looked the same.

Nowadays families are much smaller. They often consist of two generations only: parents and their dependent children. The family of this kind is called a nuclear family. There are no male and female responsibilities within the family. This means that most women go to work and earn money, and men often help with cooking, washing and some other work round the house.

Children behave differently too. They are allowed to express their point of view and take part in decision-making on different family issues. Sometimes they can even ignore the senior generation's recommendations or advice, which was absolutely impossible in traditional families. Children are more independent nowadays, and when they grow up, they often prefer to live apart from their parents. Having separate homes, however, doesn't matter much as long as adult children care for their parents and remember to help them.



A 5. The author thinks that nowadays the family is much more important than it used to be in old times.

1) True 2) False 3) Not Stated

A 6. The author says that a traditional Chinese family consisted of five generations living together.

1) True 2) False 3) Not Stated

A 7. According to the article, a lot of men and women living together are not married nowadays.

Last summer I ____ in a language school in Malta. I had won an English language competition and the prize was a two-week trip. I enjoyed it greatly, but there was one thing that really spoilt my impression. It was my roommate. She was a cute girl but a real chatterbox. In the morning, when we got up, she _____ talk about clothes and boys all the time. She kept ______ about these same things during the breaks between our classes, and even in the evening I had no chance to escape from her "boys and clothes".

I'm not a bore and I'm certainly not a bookworm who ______ only in studying. I ______ jealous either, but her silly talking made me mad and even the sound of her voice seemed to me very annoying. Sometimes I told her that her clothes looked stupid and didn't suit her at all or made fun of the boy she liked. She was _____ when she was upset. Then I felt ashamed of how I spoke to ______.

Soon night fell and after a couple of kilometres we came to a crossroads.

2. In front of a closed petrol station we saw a couple of local people, so we pulled over and asked where we could put up our tent for the night. One of the men winked at his friend and told us that there was a small piece of land at the end of the road.

3. Sure enough, after another kilometre, we came across the patch of land. The sea sounded very close now but we weren't concerned. Instead we quickly unpacked the tent and put it up in the dark. We were soon sleeping peacefully.

4. After about half an hour I woke up. I was vaguely aware that the ground was getting cooler. I started to panic when I realised that the bottom of the tent was beginning to float. We were closer to the sea than we thought!

5. In the torch light we packed everything, including the wet tent, onto the back of the bikes. Then panic turned to horror when I couldn't find my motorbike keys. By now the water was getting deep, but luckily, after ten minutes of splashing around we found them. The following morning Craig said that looking back it was all quite funny. Today, would still disagree.

I'll bring back the car -when I've been to Istanbul.

When Steve Dodge lent his car to his best friend, Brian, he wasn't worried. Brian wanted to go to London, and needed the car for just one week. However, as Brian MacDonald was driving south, he found he couldn't stop. Before he knew it, he had driven through the Channel tunnel and into France. And he just kept going and going.

After this trip, Brian decided to carry on through Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria 2 .

Three months later Brian finally returned to Britain. He had travelled more than 7,000 miles, but 3 .'I heard that he was quite angry with me,' said Brian. He was right. Yesterday, an angry Mr. Dodge said: 'Some people might 4 . I wondered where he had gone but there was no way I 5 . I didn't even know that the car had gone out of the country. We were the best of friends for years but we are definitely not now.' 'I did say I would see him in a week,' said Brian. 'But once I was in Europe I was having such a good time I decided to stay longer. I suppose I should 6 or phoned. I just hope he calms down and we can be friends again.'

An extraordinary adventure.

Travelling 2,600 miles across America alone on a horse is adventurous by anybody's standards. But when you are a woman, with a budget of only $25 a week, many people would think it was madness. Emma Crosby's family and friends certainly did. Emma, on the other hand, thought it was a perfectly rational idea.

'I had always dreamt about riding across America,' said Emma. 'It made a lot of sense to me to do it on a horse: a horse is cheaper to run than a car and less likely to break down.'

It took Emma two-and-a-half years to save up the £3,000 she needed to pay for her air fare, a horse, equipment and spending money. In that time, she taught herself first aid, went to self-defence classes and read about the type of horse she would need. As soon as her plane landed in Houston, Texas, she went straight to a horse farm.

The first meeting between woman and horse was not encouraging: Smoking Spear was not as wild as her name suggested. 'I had had this image of a wild white horse and there in front of me was this small grey pony,' says Emma. 'I can't say it was love at first sight.' Nevertheless, Emma was persuaded that Smokey, as the horse became known, was perfect for the job, so the two headed east to Georgia to start their journey.

In the weeks and months that followed, Emma and Smokey travelled through the southern states of America. They rode across hot deserts and freezing mountains and down lonely tracks that went on forever. It was a hard way of life, especially crossing the deserts. Emma and Smokey would set off at 5.30 a.m. and carry on until it became too hot. Another problem was her budget. By the end of the journey, she had almost run out of money.

Before she arrived in America, Emma had hoped that the adventure would be an opportunity to get away and 'have a bit of space'. What she didn't realise was that her journey would change her life. After crossing nine states in 202 days, she reached a ranch in San Diego, California. Ranch owner, Mike Spurling opened the door.

'He invited me out to a restaurant that night and it just went from there,' says Emma. 'I never left.' A year later they were married.

Emma now lives in California, helping to run two ranches. For years she had dreamt of owning her own horse, now she has 80. So does she still have the desire to ride off into the sunset? 'I would never do it again,' says Emma. 'My last stop turned into a full-time husband. Now we're on an adventure all of our own - real life.'

Meanwhile I was beginning to panic. I A26 for a lifejacket, but I was told that there weren't any. Panic turned to fear and I started to cry.

My dad had never really wanted children, he didn't think the world was fair enough or pleasant enough for them to grow up in but somehow he did have children. I'm not sure how, there has always been an abundance of storks in our village. My earliest memory was of long yellow beak and soft feathers that were warm and soft to touch. Not only was I born but had some brothers too. Can you only imagine? Three kids for a man who believed the human race should just give up and call it a day. My brothers came by stork too. All at the same time. We were all the same age except I assumed I was eldest. My brothers decided which of them was the eldest and which was the youngest. How they did that I don't know, that's their business.

When I was old enough to talk, my dad came into the kitchen to see how we were doing and he said to me:

"Son, I don't want to hamper your life with rules and oppressive doctrines. I firmly believe that you'd do a better job raising yourself, so you'd better get on with it and just see how it goes. You never know, it might be fun one day."

Me and my brothers did bring ourselves up. We used to walk around like a six-legged creature, looking at things and making observations of one kind or another. We were quite clever really. We saw our dad from time to time. He came into the kitchen one night (we only ever saw him in the kitchen). He just stood there and looked at us for a bit. I was in the middle of preparing a quite difficult crab and lemon soufflé, I needed my concentration and could have done without parental observation so late in life. My brother was cutting my other brother's hair, he wanted to look like Cary Grant for the season. My dad stood there grinning, seemingly pleased with his offspring. I said to him:

"Christ, Dad, I've burnt the soufflé now. If you bother my culinary practices again I'll have to lock you out of the hose for good."

"Ok, son, don't fret," he said in the responsibility-free way that he had.

"I was just checking that everything was present and correct."

"Well it isn't. This was a celebratory dinner for Tractor" (We chose our own names). "He has been accepted at Oxford to study philosophy, and crab and lemon soufflé is his favourite."

"You shouldn't base your life on soufflé, son."

"I know that, but it's the results that count, not the thought. I don't want him going away thinking how he could have had a good soufflé."

"Yeah, and look what you've made me to do Tractor's hair, he looks more like Clark Gable than Cary Grant now, God dammit!"

"Clark Gable is an equally admirable icon of the silver screen, son. I'm sure most people wouldn't notice the difference."

My father left us in peace after that. A burnt soufflé is one thing but a Cary Garnt/Clark Gable image dilemma is something else. Even he realized that.

  2. the human babies should be brought by a stork

  1. to hamper children's lives

The art of prank calls (part 1)

I suppose it all started when Lorraine and I ______ hot on these phone gags last September. We did the usual ones like dialing any number out of the book and asking. ' Your refrigerator __________?'-'Yes.'- 'Go catch it then.' And we called every

drugstore. 'Do you have Prince Albert in a can?' - 'Yes.' - 'Then let him out.'

But then we made a new game in which the object was to keep a stranger talking on the phone as long as possible. At least twice a week we'd meet for a telephone marathon.

Anyway, the idea of the telephone marathon was that you had to close your eyes, stick your finger on the number in the directory and then call it up to see how long you could keep whoever _______ talking on the phone. I wasn't too good at this because I used to keep bursting out _________. The only thing I could do that kept them talking a while before they hung up was to tell them I ________ from TV Quiz and that they _________a prize.

Speaker 1

I was always bad at languages and communicating with people. Then I decided to go to France to study French. I took a 4-week course and when I came back, I passed my French exam very well. But the most important thing is that I've changed very much. I have become more open to people and I have also changed my views on fashion and many other things.

Speaker 2

I'm from Boston. A few years ago, my family and I took a two-week trip to Italy. I liked that the Italians were very helpful and kind to each other. I also enjoy the friendly atmosphere and respect in Italian families. I mean I really would like ti bring back home the idea of a big family, where the old and the young live together.

Speaker 3

When I travel I try not to stay in a hotel but with a host family. I travel to meet people and communicate with them to get to know their lifestyle better. I like shopping where local people shop and trying the food they eat. I enjoy learning the culture and traditions of those I'm visiting and also I like living the way they do.

Speaker 4

I'm English, I was born in England and I understand the wish of English people to see other places. I agree the weather in England is awful, but the grey sky doesn't stop those who want to see all the wonderful museums, palaces, tearooms and such. I spend every Christmas and summer holidays visiting different parts of Britain and I must say Britain is very beautiful!







Speaker 5

I had a great time in France and the family I stayed with were very kind. I was studying in a small city, but the family lived just outside - they were farmers and I was surrounded by fields and animals. I had to get myself waterproof boots and stuff to go out and help with the cows! A totally new experience for a city girl like me.



Задания А1-А4



  • Allan! Here you are at last. I've been worried. Why are you so late? Was the flight delayed? Did you have to wait at Heathrow Airport for the next flight?

  • Oh, no. I got to the airport on time - actually, an hour and a half before the flight. I got my boarding pass, got through customs and we took off on time. It was a little bit windy and snowy when we were approaching the airport, but we were in Moscow at 5 p.m., just according to the timetable.

  • What went wrong then? Why are you two hours late? It took you two hours more than usual to get from the airport.

  • Yes, because after I collected my luggage from the baggage reclaim, I realized on my way here that …

  • That you had forgotten something at the airport?

  • No, I realized that my suitcase seemed too light.

  • Well?

  • So I asked the driver to stop, got the suitcase and opened it.

  • And what?

  • It wasn't mine. It had somebody else's things in it. But the suitcase itself looked absolutely like mine - the same model, colour and size.

  • Hadn't you labeled your suitcase before the flight?

  • No, I never put any labels on my things. …So I rushed back to the airport, and fortunately, the person who had taken my suitcase had opened it on his way home, too.

  • How did you managed to find him?

  • I was clever enough to go to the information desk and ask the person there to make an announcement. -The man came to the desk in a couple of minutes and we exchanged suitcases.

  • How do you feel about labeling your luggage now?

  • Well, I confess that I was wrong and next time I'll stick a label with my contacts to every tiny piece of luggage.

Speaker 1

We visited Southern Spain in the first week of half term. The purpose of the trip was to enjoy the art and architecture of the region, particularly the mediaeval Moorish influence. And, of course, to enjoy the taste of Spanish food and society. Without a guide, but well supplied with guidebooks, we could really take our time and enjoy the country. Organizing all our own sightseeing and meals gave us considerable flexibility, and not being tied to a guide and a timetable turned out to be quite a bonus. Finally, we made our way back to the airport by taxi, train and bus. It was a highly successful trip in every way!

Speaker 2

Eight days of hiking in Morocco. Just imagine it. On the first day we met our guide. A local man with dreadlocks. Actually he was a nice chap and very experienced. The days were filled with travelling. We started the trek, and walked, with small ten minutes rest every hour, if we were lucky for about seven hours. At nights we slept next to the river which was an extremely pleasant place. One night, though, we were shocked by the monsoon style rain and hurricane. We enjoyed the Moroccan food. After eight days of the expedition we left exhausted and in tears.

Speaker 3

Going to Berlin was a fantastic experience as it is truly the most diverse city in the world. Apart from the usual tourist attractions there are plenty of other areas worth visiting. Also, I found the German people not to be as serious and efficient as I thought they would be. They were very friendly and hospitable. It's a shame that future 6 formers won't have an opportunity to go on this exchange in future because our partner school is restricting it to 4th years.

Speaker 4

We spent three weeks travelling around South East Asia. On arrival the group was met by our chief guide, who briefed us on the forthcoming trek and provided the necessary sleeping bags, carry mats and supplies. Next morning we headed into the jungle first by minibus and then by boat. Our first port of call was the Canopy walk, basically a rope walkway suspended between tress 40 foot above the ground. Then the group left the river and set off on foot to explore the interior.

Speaker 5

This year I had decided to organize the work experience week in a different part of France and with a different company. Indeed, though the week in Brittany had been a success every time, the main problem was in the evening as the boys were all staying together and, therefore, speaking English. Trying to make them speak French to each other, after having spent the day at their work placement trying to understand what was going on, was a very difficult task.

Задания A1-A4

Interviewer: Today we are talking about our pets. They make our life more fun - like when they shake hands with us, chase the ball or play with toys. However, our pets, themselves, are not toys, and actually need lots of care. But sometimes pet owners are not aware of the most essential things. In other words, they don't know what they should do to keep their pet happy and healthy. We've got lots of questions from our listeners and now Dr Heather Fish, a vet, will answer some of them for us. Good evening, Heather! It's nice of you to come to our studio and give us your time.

Veterinarian: Good evening. I think that your programme is really very important, as lots of people, unfortunately, don't realise that keeping a pet is not only fun, but a great responsibility too.

I: I know that you've been working with animals, as a vet, for more than ten years, but do you have any animals at home? Do you keep pets yourself?

V: Yes, I've got a cat, her name is Dusty, and she's already thirteen years old, and I've got a dog, a shepherd dog, Misty. He's still quite young, he's only three.

I: And I'm sure they are in perfect health, aren't they?

V: They do all right. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to advise other people about their pets.

I: And what are the most common problems you have to advise people about? What illnesses or diseases do their pets suffer from?

V: Lots of different diseases. However, most of them are caused by one and the same factor...

I: One reason for different diseases? What could that be?

V: In most cases, health problems are the result of the wrong type of food and not enough exercise.

I: But how can the owner of a pet understand that the food's wrong or the exercise's not enough? Are there any symptoms which can help the owner to spot the problem?

V: First of all, watch the weight of your pet. Lots of pets nowadays, especially those kept in flats, are overweight. And this inevitably puts them at risk ... risk of hundreds of health problems.

I: What can the owner do to avoid the risk?

V: The pet owner can arrange a full check up with a vetenary surgeon. He or she will calculate the ideal weight for the pet and then prescribe the most appropriate diet.

I: I see...but not many people, I'm afraid, would take their pet to a vet... So could you give us a general idea on what we should pay attention to... to keep our pets fit and healthy?

V: Right. Well, the first thing would be to measure the food you give to your pet. Use a special measuring cup to control the portions. Secondly, feed your pet twice a day. It's healthier if you divide the daily amount of food into two meals. Don't offer your pet one large meal. And don't forget that your pet needs exercise. Take your dog for longer regular walks, or play games with your cat. Most cats find chasing small balls or toys on a string absolutely irresistible.

I: True. I know mine does!

V: This is mostly general advice. For more specific advice regarding your own particular pet, it's best to see a vet who can actually examine your pet.

Kirstie

I wanted to experience an outdoor life, so I spent a month on a ranch. It was dirty work but I enjoyed the riding, so I decided to try mustering cattle. I'm not receiving any wages, only board and lodging, but I get by. You see, I didn't travel to the outback for money.

Mustering in the mountains is difficult. I often can't see anyone else for miles, and I don't always know where I'm going. Sometimes, I'll come across a steep hill and I have to get off my horse and lead it down. That can be pretty frightening. And being in the mountains on your own can also be a bit confusing. I often mistake a dead tree for a cow. When I can't see anyone else, I worry that I'll get stuck here.

Simon

Since I arrived here four months ago, I've been on a large cattle station in outback Queensland. I do any job that's going. You name it, I'll do it! To tell the truth, the only work I really hate is fencing - digging all those deep holes, cutting trees for posts - it's hard, it's hot and you don't get used to it. I've even done cattle musters on a motorbike instead of a horse but I didn't enjoy those because I fell off!

The huge open spaces are a bit boring, though. There's nothing but flat ground and dusty tracks that go on forever. Mind you, there are beautiful sunsets - they're really fantastic. It's as if the sky is on fire.

Lucy

I teach children on a ranch at the edge of the Great Sandy Desert. I live in what you'd call a tin shed. Actually, the school's just a caravan.

But the worst thing is the heat. It's so difficult to cool down. You can't escape from that. The generator for the electricity has to be turned off for two hours a day because it gets too hot, so we can't have the fridge on and all the food goes off.

Living here is certainly not easy but it's what I wanted. Each day's exciting. One day, I heard the dogs barking, looked over and saw an enormous snake on the ground. I knew it was poisonous and all the kids started screaming. But luckily it decided to leave before we had a chance to do anything about it. I'm a good teacher, but I'm not very good with poisonous snakes!

Jeannie, United States

The death penalty? I don't believe in the death penalty because for me it's always a thing of, you know, who gets to judge who gets to live or die. Even if the person being killed is being killed because they killed someone, I still don't go for that, eye-for-an-eye type thing.

Kate, New Zealand

No, I don't believe in the death penalty. I don't believe in killing. In fact, I think if someone deserves the death penalty, actually instead of getting a death penalty they should serve time in jail and have to face society and fell the humility. If they don't, if they serve the death penalty, they will not feel the shame and will not realize the consequences.

Nitiya, India

I believe in the death penalty because I think rape and terrorism are some crimes which are totally so disgusting towards the human race and that's, I don't think it encouraged by anyone in the whole world, and everyone wants peace so I think, yeah there are some reasons why the death penalty should be there.

Joel, America

The death penalty? That's a tough one because I think the death penalty is a good deterant. It would definitely stop me from doing certain crimes if I knew that I was going to be killed if I did them, but the problem with it is, is that you can never be sure if the person actually did it, so if we convinct someone and then kill him and later find out that the person actually didn't do the crime, then I think that's a tragedy.

Steve, England

I'm against the death penalty, for, well, the main reason I'm against it, is that there's always an element of doubt. You never know if someone really did murder someone, or. well, murder is usually the main reason for the death penalty, so there's always an element of doubt. You can never be quite sure, so I think there's always a risk, and you shouldn't kill someone.

Marion, Ireland

I think that's a really difficult question if the death penalty should be in place. Most of the time, I think that I'm against the death penalty, but then, you know, you read stories in the newspaper, especially about children being killed, particularly cruel ways of ending people's lives, and then sometimes, I get so angry that I think, yeah, just kill that person because they deserve it, but really, when I calm down, I don't believe in the death penalty.



Задания A1-A7



Welcome to 'Our Neighbourhood', the programme that looks at the different places and conditions that people live in. Today we're visiting the Outback, a distant part of Australia far from the main population centres. Imagine you're living on a farm and your nearest neighbours are over 100 kilometres away. It certainly is very lonely and isolated. And this is how it feels for many people living on farms in the Outback of Australia, far away from the cities and towns. Some people are lucky enough to have email and the Internet but many do not even have a telephone line. Everyone has a two-way radio. You can listen as well as talk into it, and it is the most important means of contact with other people. When someone needs a doctor urgently, they use their two-way radio to contact The Flying Doctors. That's a special medical service that covers six million square kilometres of Australia. The doctors fly to an emergency in a small aeroplane or helicopter, and they say they can arrive at any place within ninety minutes. There are thirteen flying doctor bases in Australia with thirty-eight aeroplanes and helicopters. They visit 150,000 people every year. Another problem to solve is education. How do you go to school when you're living five hundred kilometres from the nearest one? Some kids go to boarding schools, others have their lessons sent by post. But most outback children use their two-way radios twice a day to listen to their teachers and to communicate with them and with other Outback students.

Interviewer: Anna, we see your face everywhere these days. With such a busy schedule, how do you manage to set priorities?

Model: My personal life comes first, then there's everything else - like work. I have my contracts and I do some magazine shoots because they're what keep it all going. But I've also learned to say no to certain things.

I: Not everyone's lucky enough to turn down work.

M: I used to have trouble doing it - you get pressed a lot. But I've realized that I have to take a break once in a while.

I: When did you really start to feel really known?

M: After I did my second Vogue cover, I realized I've arrived as a model. But it's really been the television and especially my Pepsi commercial. Some people never look at magazine, but everyone watches TV.

I: Now you're quite a celebrity yourself. Just how much do you think the public is entitled to know about you?

M: Well, even on my show we try to make fun of the image. I think it's important to realize that I don't wake up looking like that.It's after a few hours of hair and makeup and great lighting - and retouching if I have a pimple. I'm pretty used to being in the centre of activity, but sometimes I wish I could be just another girl at the gym working out. People don't need to know what I eat for breakfast. They need to know that I work hard. And that I have fat days and ugly days.

I: Having previewed your new exercise video, we find that hard to believe.

M: Oh, I have to work out. Some models don't, but I'm not one of them.

I: We hear that you were also involved in the off-camera production.

M: Actually I executive-produced it. That was a whole different role for me. I had the final say on everything from the cover design to hiring the director. That was great, but it was also my responsibility if something didn't work out.

I: Does all the TV and video mean you're giving up on a film career?

M: No, I would never rule it out. But I do find that I have an easier time being myself than playing a role. With acting, I don't know when I'm good or not. But with TV, I know.

I: People are always curious about celebrities' behaviour when they're away from the cameras. What's your "normal" evening at home like?

M: It depends on which house we're in. In New York, I'd be in the bathtub - I'm a real bath person - or reading or talking on the phone. If we're in the country house, where there's more room, I'd probably be in the kitchen.

I: Somehow, we don't' just picture you running out to the supermarket to pick up a few things!

M: I do it. I don't get recognized as often as you might think. - but I certainly don't go to the grocery store in full hair and makeup. That's asking for it.

I: Do you have any plans for the future that we should know about?

M: Well, the video comes out in October, so I'll be working on promoting that. And I'll be doing more with MTV and the Fox network - we're talking about doing a show on women who do really daring things, like parachuting and mountain climbing. I have my work with Revlon for a few more years, too. And of course, we'll eventually think about starting a family.

Dear Editor,

We represent the Young Journalists Club and we would be happy to publish some of our articles in your journal. The topics we study refer to teenagers' life. We run different surveys and questionnaires which help understand what teenagers are interested in, what they care for, and what they are indifferent to. Most of our research is on political and cultural issues, and we want to find out how competent contemporary teenagers are in those topics. We certainly don't ignore environmental issues and human rights problems and try to display a wide diversity of views and opinions.

Lately we've been studying the TV topic, i.e. what teenagers watch on TV and what TV programmes they enjoy. Forty teenagers, aged 14-16, were interviewed, and we got some curious results. Here are some of them.

About thirty-five percent of the interviewed said that they don't watch the news at all. "I don't watch the news," said Julia Smith, one of the typical representatives of that group, "they speak either about wars or terrorist attacks. If I watch it, I feel down and scared …, so … I don't watch it at all."

Sixty-five percent watch the news occasionally and randomly, and were not able to name any programme they trust. They confuse Presidents and Prime Ministers, and they are not sure about the regions of armed conflicts, and don't know what the word "summit" means. However, about half of our respondents mentioned that they would like to fel more confident about political issues, and that it would be useful to have some classes on political literacy in the school curriculum.

The survey revealed some unexpected things. For example, most teenagers are not really keen on thrillers and action films. They say that they prefer point-and-shoot computer games to action films.

As for TV, about sixty percent of our respondents claim that they would like to see more educational, cultural and popular science films on TV. Scientific breakthroughs, new technologies, mysteries of the past and the present, ancient civilizations are very welcome. These topics have always been a great attraction for teenagers of all generations.

In conclusion we would like to thank you for the time you gave to our letter. If you find our topics of some interest to your journal and your readers, we would be happy to present the full texts of our projects and articles, and discuss our possible cooperation.

Sincerely yours,

Martine Swift

B2.

A. The unexplained

B. How horror stories make us feel

C. Fears we can easily explain

D. Two kinds of stories

E. Real life fears

F. Not like other films!



Why do we enjoy feeling afraid?

1. Have you ever wondered why horror stories are so popular? Horror films don't usually contain characters with strong personalities or have strong stories like other films. We are not interested in Dracula's psychological reasons for biting people. Most of us can't remember what happens to Frankenstein's monster when he isn't running around terrifying people. Horror stories can be supernatural, biological or physical, and they can take place anywhere. The important thing about them is how they make people feel.

2. People like stories that have an emotional effect on them. For example, some people like romantic stories, which make them feel sad or remind them of being in love. Horror stories and feeling afraid make our hearts beat faster. We experience the same feelings that we get when we do sport or ride on a rollercoaster. People feel panic because they are frightened when they think about the "monster", or ride on a fairground ride, and this is exciting. The danger can be just an idea or an image, but it is always frightening and evil. The person watching the film or reading the book shares the feelings of the human beings in the story.

3. There is another reason why people enjoy feeling afraid. It seems that horror stories help people to do something about things that worry or scare them, such as the dark or pain. They can sit in a safe cinema seat and watch the dark or pain on the screen. When they come out of the cinema, their real fear doesn't seem so bad.

4. There are two different types of fear in horror stories. In the first type, the danger always comes from outside, such as monsters or vampires like Dracula. Human beings can attack the monster, and there is usually a happy ending to the story, the danger disappears. The second type is more terrifying. The danger comes from inside people, and it is usually more 'realistic' to people. Human beings fight against it, but they are never successful, and the story is usually open-ended, the danger may return, or get worse!



5. Finally, frightening stories are popular because they show us impossible, unknown beings and things we don't understand. These things both fascinate us and terrify us. Because we are fascinated, we keep on watching or reading, even though we are frightened. This is what gives us the experience which so many of us find enjoyable!

Love story.

In the autumn of my last year at Harvard University, I studied a lot in the Radcliffe library.

The library was quiet, nobody knew me there, and they had the books that I needed for my studies. The day before an examination I went over to the library desk to ask for a book. Two girls were working there. One was tall and sporty. The other was quiet and wore glasses. I chose her, and asked for my book.

She gave me an unfriendly look. 'Don't you have a library at Harvard?' she asked. 'Radcliffe let us use their library,' I answered. 'Yes, Preppie*, they do - but is it fair? Harvard has five million books. We have a few thousand.'

Oh dear, I thought. A clever Radcliffe girl. I can usually make girls like her feel very small. But I needed that damn book, so I had to be polite.

'Listen, I need that damn book.'

'Don't speak like that to a lady, Preppie.'

'Why are you so sure that I went to a prep** school?'

She took off her glasses. 'You look stupid and rich,' she said.

'You're wrong, I'm actually clever and poor.'

'Oh no, Preppie,' she said. 'I'm clever and poor.'

She was looking straight at me. All right, she had pretty brown eyes; and OK, perhaps I looked rich. But I don't let anyone call me stupid.

'What makes you so clever?'I asked.

'I'm not going to go for a coffee with you,' she said.

'Listen - I'm not going to ask you!'

'That' she said, 'is what makes you stupid'.

Let me explain why I took her for coffee. I got the library book that I wanted, didn't I? And she couldn't leave the library until closing time. So I was able to study the book for a good long time. I got an A in my exam the next day.

We went to a coffee shop and I ordered coffee for both of us.

'I'm Jennifer Cavilleri,' she said. 'I'm American, but my family came from Italy. I'm studying music.'

'My name is Oliver,' I said.

'Is that your first or last name?' she asked.

'First. My other name is Barrett.'

'Oh,' she said. 'Like Elizabeth Barrett the writer?

'Yes,' I said. 'No relation.'

I was pleased that she hadn't said, 'Barrett, like Barrett Hall?' That Barrett is a relation of mine. Barrett Hall is a large, unlovely building at Harvard University. My great-grandfather gave it to Harvard long ago, and I am deeply ashamed of it.

She was silent. She sat there, half-smiling at me. I looked at her notebooks. 'Sixteenth-century music?' I said. 'That sounds difficult. 'It's too difficult for you, Preppie,' she said coldly.

Why was I letting her talk to me like this? Didn't she read the university magazine? Didn't she know who I was? 'Hey, don't you know who I am?' 'Yes,' she answered. 'You're the man who owns Barrett Hall.'

She didn't know who I was. 'I don't own Barrett Hall,' I argued. 'My great-grandfather gave it to Harvard, that's all.' 'So that's why his not-so-great grandson could get into Harvard so easily!'

I was angry now. 'Jenny, if I'm no good, why did you want me to invite you for coffee?' She looked straight into my eyes and smiled. 'I like your body,' she said.

Чтение. Задание 3 (10-11 класс).

I was on holiday in Greece with my parents and my brother Joe. It was all very beautiful and mostly I was enjoying myself, but my family were getting on my nerves.

They told me things, all the time. They were usually interesting things, but I got really fed up with the way they always knew stuff I didn't. They told me stories from Greek myths; they showed me how olives and lemons grow; they taught me how to eat an artichoke. I can't think of anything they didn't tell me.I remember sitting outside a cafe on the beach eating honey cake and thinking that my head was so full it didn't have enough room for a single extra fact or figure.

Then my father suggested visiting a tiny rocky island we could see, so we went down to the water's edge where the boats were moored, and my father talked with two fishermen. An older one only spoke Greek, but his son, Stefanos, spoke English. Although he was really friendly and helpful, when my father asked about a trip to the island, he shook his head and said it was only a rock and no one went there. My mother said we'd like to have a picnic on it, but Stefanos said that was out of the question because there were a lot of submerged rocks around it, which made landing too risky. But to make up for it he offered to take us night fishing.

He took us out at sunset, and it was beautiful. There were big lamps fixed to the prow and when Stefanos lit them they made a soft hissing sound. My mother was watching the land, where thousands of tiny fireflies were flickering among the trees. But I was looking in the other direction because I'd seen something amazing - a silver seal. My father said he wasn't sure if there were seals in Greece and my mother said there definitely wouldn't be silver ones. I think Joe believed me, but by the time he looked where I was pointing, it had gone - and even I was beginning to wonder if I'd imagined it. Stefanos didn't say anything. He stopped rowing and lowered a net into the water, saying that we might get fish there. He said they came to the light.

And then I saw it again, moving towards us, trailing shimmering streaks through the water. It looked completely magical. Joe shouted out that I was right, it was a seal. It submerged again and my father explained to us that it wasn't really silver; it was just that there was phosphorescence in the water. I expect he told us all about the microscopic sea creatures that form phosphorescence, but I didn't listen. Stefanos said the seals were rare and shy, but I just wanted to know where mine had gone. After that I couldn't pay attention to anything else - I think they caught some whitebait and a small octopus - I just stared at the sea until Stefanos rowed us back to shore again. But there was no sign of the seal.

When I saw it the next day, it was a long way out, and I stood at the edge of the sea near Stefanos and his father, who were sorting their nets, and watched it through my mother's binoculars. Stefanos' father said something to him in Greek. He sounded cross. Stefanos translated for me. He said his father was angry because the seals took all the fish. Stefanos said it was the big fishing boats that took most of the fish.

The old man grumbled about something else.

'He says the seals get caught in the nets and tear them. That's true, but it doesn't happen often,' said Stefanos. I asked if the seals escaped from the nets and Stefanos said that they sometimes did. Later on, I got a fright because my seal dived and didn't come up again. I pictured him struggling in a net. But Stefanos put my mind at rest, explaining that seals stay underwater for a long time. Perhaps I hadn't seen the last of my seal after all.

Dear friends,

Many people ask questions about conflicts. They want to know why conflicts happen in a family. They want to know why political parties and states have conflicts. They ask me what they can do about conflicts.

Conflict is a natural thing in our life. Conflicts happen because people are different: they want different things, they have different ideas and their values are different. Very often people have conflicts because they do not listen to each other well. They think about what they want to say and don't really hear what the other person is saying.

Conflicts may lead to fights, bad relations and violence. If conflicts happen between parties or states, they can lead to war. That is why people should try to prevent conflicts.

But it is impossible to prevent all conflicts. Every day you are in contact with people whose values are different from yours. And you have the right to disagree with their values. But you should understand that other people also have the right to be different from you. You must respect the right of other people to have ideas that differ from your ideas. People who respect each other's ideas can resolve conflicts in a peaceful way. If people resolve conflicts peacefully, they will have better relations in the future. That is why many people want to learn about conflict resolution.



2)

He is a very tolerant person. He is intolerant of his daughter. Violence should not be tolerated. The climate here is hot but tolerable. Some people have no religious tolerance. He acted tolerantly toward his children.



Liberty and justice are human rights. Wars are inhuman. Dogs can hear better than humans. Children should be respected as human beings. War is a crime against humanity. I am going to study literature, languages and history at university because I am interested in the humanities.



We should be tolerant of people who are different from us. The French culture differs from the Russian culture. There are many differences between these religions. Can you differentiate between British English and American English? He is indifferent to other people.
