the text.
“There is a castle!” said Julian. Shall we explore that now? I do want to.
“Yes, we will,” said George. “Look – that is where the entrance used to be – through that big
broken archway.”
The children gazed at the enormous old archway, now half-broken down. Behind it were ruined
stone steps leading towards the center of the castle.
“It had strong walls all round it, with two towers”, said George. “One tower is almost gone, as
you can see, but the other is not so bad. <…>. This is the centre of the castle,” said George, as
they entered through a ruined doorway into what looked like a great yard, whose stone floor was
now overgrown with grass and other weeds. “Here is where the people used to live. You can see
where the rooms were – look, there’s one almost whole there. Go through that little door and
you’ll see it.”
They trooped through a doorway and found themselves in a dark, stone-walled, stone-roofed
room, with a space at one end where a fire-place must have been. Two slit-like windows lighted
the room. It felt very queer and mysterious.
<…> “Was there upstairs to the castle, George?”
“Of course”, said George. “But the steps that led up are gone.”<…>
“Were there any dungeons?” asked Dick.
“I don’t know”, said George. “I expect so. But nobody could find them now – everywhere is so
overgrown.”

9. Read the artiCle from Internet about the Cathedral and say what you have learned from
it:
The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour (khram Khrista Spasitela) in Moscow may be the largest
Orthodox church in the world. The building is magnificent, but not as old as it looks: it was
rebuilt in 2000 after the original was demolished by Stalin.
History
The idea for this church dates from the early 19th century. When the last of Napoleon's soldiers
left Moscow, Tsar Alexander I signed a manifesto dated December 25, 1812, declaring his
intention to build a cathedral in honor of Christ the Savior. The cathedral would "signify Our
gratitude to Divine Providence for saving Russia from the doom that overshadowed Her" and
acts as a memorial to the sacrifices of the Russian people.
Plans were drawn and a site was chosen but before construction began, Alexander I was
succeeded by his brother Nicholas. Profoundly Orthodox and patriotic, the new Tsar disliked the
Neoclassical design that had been endorsed by his brother.
Alexander commissioned his favourite architect Konstantin Thon to create a new design,
modeled after the Hagia Sophia in Constantinople. The present site was chosen by the Tsar in
1837; a convent and church already standing on the site had to be relocated.
Construction began in 1839 and the cathedral didn't emerge from its scaffolding until 1860;
elaborate frescos by some of the best Russian painters continued in the interior for another 20
years. The cathedral was consecrated on the day Alexander III was crowned, May 26, 1883. A
year earlier, Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture" debuted there.
After the Revolution, the prominent site of the cathedral called out for redevelopment by
the Soviets, who planned to replace the church with a monument to socialism, known as the
Palace of Soviets. It would rise in modernistic buttressed tiers to support a gigantic sculpture of
Lenin, arm raised in blessing, perched atop a dome. On December 5, 1931, the Cathedral of
Christ the Saviour was dynamited and reduced to rubble.
Funds for the largest building in the world remained unavailable, however. A foundation hole
gaped on the site until under Nikita Khrushchev it was transformed into a huge publiC
swimming pool.
With the end of the Soviet rule, the Russian Orthodox Church received permission to rebuild the
Cathedral of Christ the Saviour (February 1990). A temporary cornerstone was laid by the end of
the year.
A construction fund was opened in 1992 and foundations began to be poured in the fall of 1994.
The lower church (Church of the Transfiguration) was consecrated in 1996, and the completed
Cathedral of Christ the Saviour was consecrated August 19, 2000.

translation of the text. Give answers to the following questions: 1) what was
invented? 2) Who was the inventor?
Wonderful Invention
We live in the world of reinforced concrete. Modern houses and skyscrapers are built of
reinforced concrete as are also tunnels and dams and bridges.
Who was the genius that created this wonderful material?
Reinforced concrete was first made in 1861 by the French gardener Monier. He needed tubs, but
he had no money to buy them. Monier decided to make the tub from clay like a flower pot.
There was no clay at hand but he found some cement. Monier began to shape his tub from
cement.
For this purpose he took two wooden tubs, one larger than the other, put one into the other and in
between poured cement.
When the cement hardened he broke up both wooden tubs and obtained a large cement tub
barrel.
The tubs were heavy and bulky, but the trouble was that they were weak.
The gardener had to place iron bars along the tub to make it stronger or in other words to
reinforce it and put another layer above the bars to make it look nice.
A strange thing happened. The barrel proved to be unusually strong. Hen Monier began to make
the walls thinner, and still the barrels remained very strong. This was how reinforced concrete
was born.

My Future Profession
I study at the Yuryevets Agricultural College. I am a full-time, second year student. I study in the
building department. I want to be a builder. I have chosen this profession because it is very
useful, important, noble and interesting in my opinion. That is why I try to do my best to
gain more knowledge in the line and working habits. The main task of a construction is to solve
housing problem, in another words, to supply people with comfortable apartments and modern
conveniences. Nowadays new apartments are very expensive and not many people
can afford moving to new flats with improved housing conditions. The raising of all kinds of
construction must meet the demands of people in apartments. To solve this problem it is
necessary not only to apply new methods of construction but to produce modern building
materials. The most commonly used building materials are divided into natural and artificial
building materials. The main artificial building materials are cement, concrete, plastics, brick.
The main natural building materials are stone, sand, lime, timber and clay.

9. Read the artiCle and find out some information about the Holy Trinity St. Sergius
Lavra.
The Holy Trinity St. Sergius Lavra
History
The monastery was founded as Holy Trinity Monastery by Sergius of Radonezh when he, with
his brother Stephen, established a cell and a simple chapel to begin lives of ascetic seclusion in
the forest wilderness at the Makovets Hill north of Moscow, Russia. They dedicated the chapel
to the Holy Trinity. As people learned about him, many came to his isolated cell for guidance.
Among these people were other ascetics who built cells near by. In time the number grew to
twelve monks and the beginnings of a hermitage was established. In 1355, Sergius produced a
charter for the monastery that formed a model for organization of Holy Trinity and was used also
by his many disciples who were to found over 400 monastic communities. The charter formed
the plan for growth of the monastery that included adding arefectory, kitchen, and bakery.
With the growth and increased fame of Holy Trinity, the influence of Sergius increased as he
supported the princes of Moscow. A highlight of this support was Sergius' blessing of Grand
Prince Dmitri Donskoy and his forces as Dmitri left to meet and defeat the Tatars in the Battle of
Kulikovo in 1380, a battle in which two of Sergius' monks, Peresvet and Oslyabya, accompanied
Dmitri into battle.
Sergius died in 1392 just before the Tatars returned and devastated the monastery later in the
year. Again in 1408 the monastery was attacked and burned during the campaign of the Tatar
Khan Edigei against Moscow. The Abbot Nikon found the relics of Sergius miraculously
preserved in the ruins of the monastery when he began rebuilding. Abbot Nikon built a wooden
church in which the relics of Sergius were placed.
After each attack Abbot Nikon led the rebuilding of the monastery. In 1422, the same year that
Sergius was declared the patron saint of the Moscovite Russian state, construction in the Suzdal-
Vladimir style of a stone cathedral began. The builders were a team of Serbian monks who had
taken refuge in Holy Trinity after the Battle of Kosovo in Serbia. The cathedral, which replaced
the Church of St. Sergius over which it was built, was dedicated to the Holy Trinity. The relics of
St. Sergius are kept in this cathedral. Andrei Rublev and Daniil Chyorny, the great iconographers
of the day, took part in decorating Holy Trinity Cathedral with frescos.
In time, the tradition arose for the Moscow royalty to be baptized in the cathedral as well as
holding thanksgiving services. With donations from the nobles, the monastery became very rich,
even to maintaining an army of 20,000. It owned about one hundred estates that were worked by
over 106,000 serfs. However, the right to own such property was taken from the monastery in
1764.
The Church of the Descent of the Holy Spirit (Dukhovsky) was commissioned by Ivan III in
1476. This church, built by artisans from Pskov, is one of the remaining examples in Russia of a
church with a belltower on top of it. The Church of St. Nikon, commissioned by Basil III, was
completed in 1548, a year after Nikon was canonized. At the western wall of the Nikon church a
chapel called Serapion's Tent was built over the tomb of St. Serapion, the archbishop of
Novgorod.
As the sixteenth century progressed a major cathedral, modeled after the Dormition Cathedral in
the Moscow Kremlin, was commissioned in 1559 by Ivan IV, commonly labeled “the Terrible."
Construction of the Uspensky (Dormition) Cathedral took twenty-six years. It was built to
commemorate the conquests of Kazan and Astrakhan. The interior, including the iconostasis,
was the work of a number of artists: notably Simon Ushakov whose masterpiece icon of the Last
Supper adorns the iconostatsis and the violet and blue frescos of the interior walls done by
Yaroslav masters in 1684.
The wooden walls around the monastery were replaced during the middle of the sixteenth
century by thick stone walls. The walls that stretched for 1.5 kilometers were dotted by twelve
towers. The strong walls were instrumental in the defense of the monastery during the siege by
Polish forces from 1608 to 1610. Again in 1618, Wladyslaw IV besieged Holy Trinity
unsuccessfully. Throughout the remainder of the century construction of more structures took
placed. These included a royal palace ordered by Peter I for his father, Tsar Alexei, that now
houses the Theological Academy. In 1686, a refectory/church dedicated to St. Sergius was added
that for a while was the largest hall in Russia. The Church of John the Baptist's Nativity was
added in the last decade of the seventeenth century. This church was commissioned by the
Stroganov family and was built over one of the gates to the monastery. Also the century
witnessed the building of monks' cells, a hospital in 1635, and a chapel over the St. Sergius Well
that was discovered in 1644 and from which the faithful draw holy water.
The monastery was favored by Elizabeth, and she commissioned the Church of the Virgin of
Smolensk and an 98 meter tall belltower, built between 1741 and 1769 by the architects Ivan
Michurin and Dmitri Ukhtomsky. This was then the tallest structure in Russia.
In 1742, a seminary was founded at the monastery. In 1814, the seminary was replaced by the
Moscow Academy that was transferred from Moscow to the monastery. Additionally, the
monastery supported a number of sketes in Sergiyev Posad.
Following the assumption of power by the Bolsheviks in late 1917, the Lavra was closed in 1920
by the new Soviet government, with its buildings being assigned to various governmental
institutions. Not withstanding rescue efforts by Pavel Florensky and his followers, many of the
sacramental valuables of the Lavra were lost or transferred to other places during these years.
The monastery bells were destroyed in 1930, including the 65 ton Tsar-Bell.
In 1945, the Bolsheviks returned the Holy Trinity Lavra to the remnants of the Orthodox Church
that existed within Russia. The return was part of the legalization of the Church in recognition of
its efforts in defense of the country during the Nazi invasion of World War II (The Great
Patriotic War). The first liturgy at the monastery was conducted on April 16, 1946 in the
Dormition Cathedral. The monastery remained the seat for the Patriarch until the patriarchate
was allowed the use of Danilov Monastery in Moscow in 1983.

8. Read and translate the text about the famous British arChiteCt.
Sir Christopher Wren (1632 - 1723)
Christopher Wren by Sir Godfrey Kneller.
Wren was an English scientist and mathematician and one of Britain's most distinguished
architects, best known for the design of many London churches, including St Paul's Cathedral.
Christopher Wren was born on 20 October 1632 in East Knoyle, Wiltshire, where his father was
rector. His father later moved to Windsor and Wren was educated at Westminster School and
then Oxford University. He showed an early talent for mathematics and enjoyed inventing
things, including an instrument for writing in the dark and a pneumatic machine. In 1657, Wren
was appointed professor of astronomy at Gresham College in London and four years later,
professor of astronomy at Oxford. In 1662, he was one of the founding members of the Royal
Society, along with other mathematicians, scientists and scholars, many of whom were his
friends.
Wren's interest in architecture developed from his study of physics and engineering. In 1664 and
1665, Wren was commissioned to design the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford and a chapel for
Pembroke College, Cambridge and from then on, architecture was his main focus. In 1665, Wren
visited Paris, where he was strongly influenced by French and Italian baroque styles.
In 1666, the Great Fire of London destroyed much of the medieval city, providing a huge
opportunity for Wren. He produced ambitious plans for rebuilding the whole area but they were
rejected, partly because property owners insisted on keeping the sites of their destroyed
buildings. Wren did design 51 new city churches, as well as the new St Paul's Cathedral. In 1669,
he was appointed surveyor of the royal works which effectively gave him control of all
government building in the country. He was knighted in 1673.
In 1675, Wren was commissioned to design the Royal Observatory at Greenwich. In 1682, he
received another royal commission, to design a hospital in Chelsea for retired soldiers, and in
1696 a hospital for sailors in Greenwich. Other buildings include Trinity College Library in
Cambridge (1677 - 1692), and the facade of Hampton Court Palace (1689 - 1694). Wren often
worked with the same team of craftsmen, including master plasterer John Groves and wood
carver Grinling Gibbons
Wren died on 25 February 1723. His gravestone in St Paul's Cathedral features the Latin
inscription which translates as: 'If you seek his memorial, look about you.'
Cultural Note
St Paul's Cathedral
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the cathedral church of the diocese of London. For other cathedrals
consecrated to Saint Paul, see Cathedral of Saint Paul (disambiguation).
St Paul's Cathedral is an Anglicancathedral on Ludgate Hill, the highest point in the City of
London, England, and is the seat of the Bishop of London. The present building dates from
the 17th century and was designed by Sir Christopher Wren. It is generally reckoned to be
London's fifth St Paul's Cathedral, all having been built on the same site since AD 604. The
cathedral is one of London's most famous and most recognisable sights. At 365 feet (111m) high,
it was the tallest building in London from 1710 to 1962, and its dome is also among the highest
in the world.
Important services held at St. Paul's include the funerals of Lord Nelson, the Duke of Wellington
and Sir Winston Churchill; Jubilee celebrations for Queen Victoria; peace services marking the
end of the First and Second World Wars; the launch of the Festival of Britain and the
thanksgiving services for both the Golden Jubilee and 80th Birthday of Her Majesty the Queen.
The Royal Family holds most of its important marriages, christenings and funerals
at Westminster Abbey, but St Paul's was used for the marriage of Charles, Prince of
Wales and Lady Diana Spencer. The religious service forQueen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee was
also celebrated there. St Paul's Cathedral is still a busy working church, with hourly prayer and
daily services.
UNIT 6
The English Language
(Английский язык)
1. The English language is one of the humanitarian subjeCts at the College alongside with
the Russian, MathematiCs, History, and InformatiCs and so on.
Why do people all over the world learn foreign languages? Perhaps because the world is getting
smaller, in a way: nations are more closely linked with each other than ever before, companies
operate world-wide, scientists of different nationalities co-operate, and tourists travel practically
everywhere. The ability to communicate with people from other countries is getting more and
more important. And learning foreign languages broadens your horizons, too!
a) Use the following words to desCribe the English language:
language
tongue
belong
foreign
international
mother tongue
national
official
second language
widespread
commerce
politics
means of communication
legislation законодательство
legal proceedings судопроизводство
education
literary литературный
dialect
jargon
common language просторечие
b) Say why you learn English at the College.
I. Why study English?
Learning English is a must for a XXI century professional no matter what job to choose. One can
not do well without one of the common European languages. I learn English because I want to
read Kingsley Amis and James Joyce, Ernst Hemingway and Lewis Carroll in their native
language. Besides, I like to travel. Speaking English I shall have no troubles looking for a room
or a meal anywhere in the world. I like to talk and make friends with people from different
countries.
Last autumn I became a member of the Student Pen-Pal Club and now I have much fun writing
letters to my Swiss and American pen-friends. I hope, some day we shall meet each other and
have a good time. There are also international friendship camps both in Russia and abroad where
you can meet boys and girls from any country of the world. They rarely can speak Russian which
is much more difficult to learn than English.
In a word, I understand that I have to learn English hard and in a proper way
2. Answer the following questions:
1) What subjects do you learn at the college?
2) What is your favourite subject?
3) What do you know about the English language?
4) Is it important (necessary) to learn English nowadays? Why?
5) Why do people all over the world learn foreign languages?
6) What kind of language is Russian?
Home Reading
3. Now learn some interesting faCts about English. Do it in groups and then share the
information with the others.
Q1. How many people speak English worldwide?
English is one of the most widely used languages in the world. Recent estimates suggest that
over 337 million people speak English as their first language, with possibly some 350 million
speaking it as a second language. America has the largest number of English speakers - over 226
million speak the language as a mother tongue. English is an official language in India, alongside
Hindi, and some 3,000 English newspapers are published throughout the country. English is also
the favoured (предпочитаемый)language of the world’s major airlines and international
commerce. Over 80 percent of the world’s electronically stored information is in English and
two-thirds of the world’s scientists read in English. English is an official language, or has a
special status in over 75 of the world’s territories.
Q2. In what Countries do people speak English?
There are English –speaking countries: Great Britain, the USA, Canada, Australia and New
Zealand. They also speak English in India ( the official language), Nigeria, Sweeden, Denmark If
the rest of the world isn’t talking English, they’re borrowing English words to add to their own
language: the Japanese go on a "pikunikku" (picnic), Italians program their computers with "il
software", Germans talk about "ein Image Problem" and "das Cashflow" and Czechs say "ahoy!"
for "hello" - a greeting traditionally used by English sailors, which is interesting as there’s no sea
in the Czech Republic!
Q3. Why are many English words pronounCed differently from the way they are spelt?
The problems with the English spelling system came about as the language developed over a
period of 1,000 years. Some complications arose when the Romans tried to write down Old
English using the 23 letter Latin alphabet. Old English contained nearly 40 vowels and
consonants. The influence of French after the Norman Conquest also made an impact on English
spelling. French scribes introduced "qu" where Old English had used "cw" e.g. queen, and "gh"
instead of "h" e.g. night, amongst other changes.
With the introduction of the printing press in 1476 a standard spelling system emerged. And the
pronunciation of vowels continued to change during the 15th century, but because of the advent
of the printing press, spelling never caught up. Thus modern spelling in many ways reflects
outmoded pronunciation of words dating back to the Middle Ages.
