Введение

Цель данного пособия — дать обучающемуся и учителю дополнительные материалы для развития иноязычной коммуникативноЙ компетенции обу• чаюидихгя и успешной сдачи ими единого государственного экзамена по английскому явыку. Пособие содержит 15 тематических и 15 типовых вариантов со всеми необходимыми дополнительными материалами, которые включают ответы, критерии оценивания заданий 39 и 40, дополнительные схемы оценивания заданий 39 и 40, тексты для аудирования„ Кроме того, в пособии представлены примеры заданий к новому разделу «Говорение», который планируется включить в экзаменационную работу в 2015 году. ТИПО' вые варианты и все дополнительные материалы полностью соответствуют проектам спецификации и демоверсии КИМ ЕГЭ 2015 г.


Тематические варианты соответствуют проверяемым в ходе государствен• ного экзамена умениям и навыкам: 2 тематических варианта ка контроль умений аудирования, 4 тематических варианта на контроль умений чтения, З тематических варианта на контроль умений письменной речи и 6 темати• чееких вариантов ни контроль лексико-грамматичегких навыков, т.е. владение грамматическими формами и конструкциями, лексическими единицами и способность оперировать ими в коммуникативно-зничимом контексте. Преобладание тематических вариантов «Грамматика и лексика. объясняетгя тем, что этот раздел КИМ ЕГЭ вызывает наибольшие трудности у обучающихся и даёт более низкий средний балл выполнения, чем другие разделы работы. По структуре и содержанию, по формату заданий тематические варианты еоответетвукјт ризделам КИМ ЕГЭ,

Материалы пособия могут использоваться на занятиях под руководством учителя или в процессе самостоятельного повторения пройденного и подготовки к ЕГЭ. При использовании пособия в школе рекомендуется задавать выполнение тематического или типового варианта на дом (с самоконтролем времени), и в клиеее разбирать вызвавшие затруднения вопросы и анализировать работы. Это не только ловысит эффективность классных занятий, но и будет повышать чувство ответственности обучающихся за результаты экзамена,

Вместе с тем, тематические варианты, более короткие, чем типовые и не требующие много времени для их выполнения, являются хорошим материалом для самостоятельных работ в ходе промежуточного контроля. В каждом тематическом варианте указывается отведённое на его выполне ние время. Можно также Г№комендонать проведение ПИСЬМеННЫХ работ с одним заданием 39 па 20 минут.

В процессе подготовки к ЕГЭ иностранным языкам 2015 г. рекомен• дуется обратить внимание на уточнение критериев оценивания задания 40 в отношении продуктивного характера письменноЙ речи экзаменуемых,

Заученное наизусть «сочинение» из опубликованного пособия или интернет•источника не может получить высоких баллов, т.к. ие служит свидетельстзог•т продуктивных умений экзаменуемого. Такая работа будет оцене• ка в О баллов.

Все материалы пособия разработаны специалистами ФИНИ под руководством и при непосредственном участии руководитедя Федеральной предметной комиссии разработчиков ЕГЭ по иностранным языкам, Заслужен• ного работника высшей школы РФ, доктора филологических наук, профессора М,В. Вербицкой.

4. From local use to international trade 8. Deceiving likeness

A. The first mentioning of coffee goes us tar back as the ninth century' At first, coffee remained largely confined to Ethiopia, where its native beans wore first cultivated. But the Arab world began expanding its trade horizons, and the beans moved into northern Africa and were mass-produced. From there, the beans entered the Indian and European markets. and the popularity of the beverage spread.

 While processing, a coffee bean absorbe heat, and the color shifts from green to yellow and then to varying shades of brown. Depending on the color, the beans are labeled from light to very dark. Darker beans are generally smoother; because they have less fiber content and the flavor is more sugary. Lighter beans have more caffeine, which result in a slight bitterness, and a stronger flavor.


 Coffee is one of the world's most widely consumed beverages. People often have it in the morning, when they feel tired or want to stay uwnke in the evening. Many office workers take a coffee break when they have low energy. It happens because coffee contains caffeine, a bitter, white crystalline chemical that hag a vitalizing effect in humans.

 For the best quality of brewed coffee it is necessary to buy whole beans and grind them before brewing. It you keep an open package of beans in the freezer it remains fresh for a month. Ground coffee Should be used up within two weeks and also kept in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator. But an absolutely fresh coffee can be made from green beans that just need to be roasted first.

E. For occasions when one wants to enjoy the flavor of coffee with almost no stimulation, decaffeinated coffee is available. It is processed from beans while they are still green by either soaking beans in hot water or steaming them. Decaffeinated coffee usually loses some flavor over regular coffee, but it looks the same and can easily mislead inexperienced users by its smell and even taste.

The adoption of coffee created unique smial atmosphere that depends heavily upon coffee, espresso in particular. Coffeehouses, the places where people can get together, have traditionally been used not only for drinking coffæ, but also ag artistic und intellectual centers. For example, cafés of Paris which ure popular tourist attractions because they are also associated with artists, intellectuals and writers.

G. A coffee bean is the seed of the coffee plant, which ripens around eight months after the emergence of the flower, by changing colour from green to red, and they should be harvested. In most countries, the coffee crop is picked by hand. After this coffee beans are wet processed and then dried. Finally the last layers or dry skin are removed; the beans are sorted by size and density, roasted and sold to consumers throughout the world.

The orchestra sat at the base of the stage in a pit. I usually went down to the front to see the musicians D They were all crammed into such u tiny space. I played the flute myself and my dad kept encouraging me that if I kept it up, E But truly, I didn't want to be tucked away down there. wanted to be on top, front and center.

Most people dressed rather finely, und certain fragrances took center stage us various women passed by. The sounds of the audience F at their seats were clearly heard while last minute patrons filled in. There was electricity in the air und then the lights would go down and up, and you knew it was time for the show to get started. The lights dimmed. The music began. And you were swept up into a whale new world. 1 loved it!

The Slob's Holiday

My husband and I went to Reno for our holiday last year. 'Isn't that place where people go to get a quickie divorce?' asked my second son. 'Yes', I said, trying to look enigmatic and interesting. 'You are not getting divorced, are you?' he asked bluntly. 'NO,' I said, 'we are going to an OUÜloor pursuit trade fair.' The children sighed With relief and slouched away, muttering things like •boring'. I call them Children, but

they are all grown up, My eldest son has started to develop fine lines around his cycs fledgling crow's feet. A terrible sight for any parent to see. Anyway, the piece isn't about children, It's about holidays.

The first thing to be said about holidays is that anybody who can afford one should be grateful@ The second thing is that planning holideys can be hard work@ In our household it starts with somebody muttering, 41 suppose we ought to think about, holiday: This remark is usually made in and is received glumly, if the person making it has said suppose we ought think about the Bolivian balance 0t payment problems. '

Nothing much happens for a week and then the potential holiday-makers are rounded up and made to consult their diaries. Hospital appointments are taken into consideration, as ure important things to do with work. But ather highlights on the domestic calendar, such as the cat's birthday, are swept aside and eventually two weeks are found.. The next decision is the most painfulï where?

We travel abroad to work quite a lot but we return tired and weary, go the holiday we are plenning is slob's holiday: eollupse on A gunbed, read a book until the sun goes down, stagger back to hotel room, shower, change into glad rags, eat well, wave good-bye to teenagers, have lust drink on hotel terrace, go to bed and then lie awake and wait for hotel waiters bring teenagers from the disco.

I never want to be guided around another monument, as long as I live, I do not want to be told how many bricks it took to build it. I have a short attention span for such details, do not want to attend a *folk evening' ever, ever again. The kind where men with their trousers tucked into their socks wave handkerchiefs in the direction of women wearing puff-sleeved blouses, long skirts und headscarves.

I also to live dangerously and get brown, I want my doughy English skin change from white sliced to wheat germ, I like the simple pleasure of removing my watch strap and gazing at the patch of virgin skin beneath.

I don't want to make new friends — on holidays or in generali I can't manage the ones have at home. I do not want to mix with the locals and I have no wish to go into their homes. I do not welcome tourists who come to Leicester into my home. Why should the poor loeulg in Holidaylanð be expected to? It's bad enough that we monopolize their beaches, clog their pavements and spend an hour in a shap choosing a sunhat that costs the equivalent of 75 pence.

Sot the glows holiday has several essential requirements: a. hotel on a sunny beach, good food, a warm nightlife for the teenagers, a big crowd to get lost in, and the absence of mosquitoes.

As I we fit. the planning stage. We have ltRiked through All the holiday brochures, but they are full of references to •hospitable locals', •folk nights t t "deserted beaches', and 'interesting historical sights t „ Not our cup of tea, or glass of sangria, at all,

The porents' choice of holiday destination made the narrator's children feel

1)    jealous.

2)    excited.

3)    alarmedv

4)    indifferent.

2)     the fact that children are aging.

3)     the way children change their image. 4) the fact there is a generation gap.

When the need for holiday planning is first announced in the narrator' family, it

l) is regarded as an important political issue.

2) is met with enthusiasm by all the family. 3) seems like an impossible task, 4) is openly ignored.

find 8 two-week slot for a. holiday potential holiday-makers have to 1) negotiate the optimum period for travel.

2)     cancel prior business appointments.

3)     re-schedule individual summer plans.

4)     make a list of the things to be taken into account.

The slob's holiday is the type of holiday for people, who

l) do not want to go on holiday abroad.

2)    go on holiday with teenagers.

3)    do not like public life.

4)    prefer peaceful relaxing holidays.

When the narrator says 'I also want to live dangerously', she means

l) getting lost in the crowd.

2)    going sightseeing without a guide.

3)    choosing herself the parties to go to.

The main reason the narrator doesn't want to mix up with locals is because ghe

2)                doesn't want to add to their inconveniencies. 3) is afraid to make friends with local people. values her own privacy above all.

A.      Dance is in my heart, in my blood and in my mind. I dance daily. The seldom-used dining room of my house is now an often•used ballroom. The CD-cbanger has five discs at the ready: waltz, rock-and-roll, swing, salsa, und tango, Tango is a complex and difficult dance. I take three dancing lessons a week, and I am off to Buenos Aires for three months to feel the culture of tango.

B.       Clothes play an important role in my lifei My passion for fashion begun when I was in elementary school. I attended a private school with uniformed dress code. At first I felt bad that I could not wear what I wanted, but soon I learned to display my creativity and style through shoes and accessories. They can make each of us unique, in a uniform or not.

C.       I believe that music has a bigger place in our society than it is given credit for. The single word 'music' covers so many styles. Rock hands and classical musicians make listeners get the meaning from the music. Music tells stories about life and death, expresses feelings of love, sadness, anger, guilt, and pain without using words.

D.      Even as an eighteen year old young Adult, I still feel the magic of Christmas. I believe in real Christmas tree. My family has had a real Christmas tree every year of my life. When you get home and smell the sweet pine needles, something magical goes into your soul, rmses your spirits. Every year we buy renl tree to fully embrace the spirit of Christmas.

E.       People often try to get rid of the number thirteen. Many hotels and office buildings across the world do not have u 13th floor! I believe that the number thirteen is not un unlucky number. I was born on January, 13 and do not consider myself unlucky in any way at all! I believe that this number should have all the rights und respect we give the rest of the numbers,

 Many kids that ga to public schools don't wear a uniform. They like to show off the new expensive clothes and often have trouble picking out outfits for school in the morning. They are more worried about whether their shirt matches the belt, rather than if the homework is completed. I believe that this is a fault of our school system and only causes problems.

G. They say that the music of your youth is the soundtrack of your life. I am 50;  enjoy new artigtg and new music, but still find words of wisdom in singles Of sixties and seventies, still believe that •you can't always get what you want, but sometimes, you get what you need,' that 'all you need is love'. I like to listen to the songs I grew up with.

Past and present

I believe we are not alone.

Even if I on the other side of the world from the farmhouse I live in, I still dream of the ancient vines out the window, and the shed out back that my grandfather's father built in 1870 with eucalyptus trunks. As long as I can recreate these images,

All of us need some grounding in our modern world of constant moving, buying, selling, meeting and leaving. Some find constancy in religion, others in friends or community. But we need some daily signposts that we are not different, not better,

For me, this house, farm, these ancient vines are those roots. Although I came into this world alone and will leave alone, I am not alone.

Il

There are ghosts of dozens of conversations in the hallways, stories I remember about buying new plows that now rust in the barnyard and ruined crops from the same vines C

All of us are natural links in a long chain of being, and that I need to know what time of day it is, what season is coming, Whether the wind is blowing north or from the east, und if the moon is still full tomorrow night, D

The physical world around us constantly changes, E

We must struggle in our brief existence to find some transcendent meaning and so find relief in the knowledge F

You may find that too boring, living with the past as present. I find it refreshing. There is an old answer to every new problem, that wise whispers of the past are with us. If we just listen and remember, we are not Alone; we have been here before.

Unleashing the power Of creativity

I have always been an optimist and I suppose that is rooted in my belief that the power of creativity and intelligence can make the world a better place. And the life did not disappoint me — many times it proved me right.

For as long as I can remember, I have loved learning new things and solving problems. So when I sat down at a computer for the first time in the seventh grade, I was hooked. It was a clunky old Teletype machine and it could barely do anything compared to the computers we have today. But it changed my life.

When my friend Allen and I started Microsoft 30 years ago, we had a vision of 'a computer on every desk and in every home', which probably sounded a little too optimistic at a time when most computers were the size of refrigerators and cost as much as a new modern Japanese car. But we believed that personal computers would change the world. And they have.

And now, after 30 years, J am still us inspired by computers as I was back in the seventh grade.

I believe that computers are the most incredible tool we can use to feed our curiosity and inventiveness — to help us solve problems that even the smartest people could not solve on their own.

Computers have transformed how we learn, giving kids everywhere a window into all of the world's knowledge. And the only thing these youngsters should do is make the right choice, which is not always un easy choice. Computers are helping us build communities around the things we care about and to stay clcse to the people who are important to us, no matter they live — next door or on the other side of the world.

Like my friend Warren Buffett, I feel particularly lucky to do something every day that I love doing. He calls it •tap-dancing to work'. My job at Microsoft is as challenging as ever, but what makes me •tap-dance to work' is when we show people something new, like a computer that can recognize your handwriting or your speech, or gestures, or one that can store a lifetime's worth of photos or home videos and they say, didn't know you could do that with a PC!'

But for all the cool things that a person can do with a PC, there are lots of other WAYS we can put our creativity and intelligence to work to improve our world. There are still far too many people in the world whose most basic needs go unmet. Every year, for example, millions of people die from diseases that are easy to prevent or treat in the developed world.

 believe that my own good fortune brings with it a responsibility to give back to the world. My wife, Melinda, and I have committed ourselves to improving health and education in a way that can help as many people as possible.

As a father, I believe that the death of A child in Africa is no less bitter or tragic than the death of a child anywhere else. And that it does not take much to make an immense difference in these children's lives.

 am still very much gn optimist, and I believe that progress on even the world's toughest problems is possible — and it is happening every day. We are seeing new drugs for deadly diseases, new diagnostic tools. and new attention paid to the health problems in the developing world.

I am excited by the possibilities I see for medicine. And I believe that through our natural inventiveness, creativity and willingness to solve tough problems, we are going to see some amazing achievements in this area in my lifetime.

Artificial intelligence is t.hc art of making machines that are able to •think'. We often don't notice it, but artificial intelligence is All around us. It is present in computer in the cruise control in our cars and the servers that direct our e-mail@ Some scientists believe that the mast powerful computers could have the power of the human brain, Machines have always been excellent at tasks like calculation. But, now they are better than humans in many spheres, from chess to mixing music.


B. The world's most powerful computer is ASCI Purple, made by IBM in 2004. It can out 100 trillion operations per second and has the size of two basketball courts. A computer with double power is expected in the next two years@ A spokesman for IBM said that ASCI Purple ig near the power of the human brain. Bui some scientists believe our brains egrry out almost 10,000 trillion operations per second.

 The possible dangers of intelligent machines became the stories of many science fiction films. In The Terminator (1984), a computer network uses nuclear against the human race in order to rule the world. This network then makes intelligent robots called  which it programs to kill all the humans. In The (1999) and The Matrix Reloaded 0003), a,  dominates humanity, using people as batteries to power itself.

 In 1997, the then world chess champion Garry Kasparov played against IBM's Deep Blue supercomputer — and lost. After six games, the world-famous Kasparov lost 2.5 to 3.5 to the computer, In February 2003, Kasparov restored human reputation by finishing equal against the Israeli-built supercomputer Deep Junior. Kasparov ended the game with the score 2-2 against US company X3D Technologies' supercomputer X,3D Fritz in November 2003, proving that the human brain can keep up with the latest developments in computing least in chess).

E.       There are a number of different methods which try to measure intelligence, the most. famous of which is perhaps the IQ or 'Intelligence Quotient' test. This test was first used in early 20th century Parith The modern day IQ test mensures a variety af different types of ability such as memory for words and figures and others@ Whether IQ tests actually test general intelligence is disputable. Some argue that they just show how good the individual ig at IQ tests!

F.        Analysis shows that human intelligence ig changing. We are gaining abilities in some areas of intelligence, while losing them in others, such as memor'$% So this generation may not remember the great number of poems, their abilities are greater in other It been discovered that wide use of video games improves reaction time. But we could only dream of computing without calculutorg as fast as our grandparents did@

G.      In 1950, mathematician Alan Turing invented a test to check machine intelligence. In the Turmg Test, two people (A and B) sit in a closed room, a third person (C), who asks questions, sits outside. Person A tries to answer the questions so that person C doesn't guess who they are; men or women, while person B tries to help him (C) in their identification. Turing suggested a machine take the place of person A. If the machine fooled the human, it was likely to be intelligent.

'Children's concentration and behaviour The teachers would also like to give the children the experience of eating together. It turned out that some children weren't to that. Pupils are also encouraged to find out more about where their food comes from by

Abby's tidy drawer

One Saturday morning, Abby's Mum came upstairs to see Abby in her bedroom. There was a, big mess on the floor and Abby sat in the middle of it all reading a book.

'What mess,' Mum said. 'You need to have a clear up in here. Because things get broken or lost when they're all willy•nilly like this. Come on, have tidy up now.'

'But I'm very busy,' Abby argued, 'and it's boring doing it on my own. Can't you help me?'

'No I can't, I'm busy too. But I'll give you extra pocket money if you do a good job,'

When Mum came back later all the toys and clothes and books had disappeared.

'I'm impressed,' said Mum. 'But I'll inspect it properly later.'

'It was easy,' said Abby. 'Can I have my extra pocket money now?'

'All right. Get it out of my change purse. It's in the kitchen tidy drawer:

In the kitchen, Abby went over to the dresser and pulled open the tidy drawer. She hunted for the purse,

'It must be somewhere at the bottom,' Mum said. 'Let's have a proper look.'

She pulled the drawer out and carried it over to the table. Abby looked inside. There were lots of things like staplers and string, but there were lots of interesting things as well.

*What's this?' Abby asked, holding up a plastic bottle full of red liquid.


'Fake blood, from a Halloween party years ago. Your Dari and I took you to that, dressed up as a baby vampire. You were really scary.'

Abby carried on looking through the drawer. She found some vampire teeth, white face paint, plastic witch nails and hair gel. Mum pulled out a glittery hair band. It had springs with wobbly balls on the top that flashed disco colours! Abby found some sparkly hair elastics to match the hair band. She made her Mum put lots of little bunches all over her head so she looked really silly.

'I remember this,' Abby said as she pulled out a plastic bag. 'Thig is from my pirate party.' Inside there was black, false moustache and some big gold earrings.

'Come here,' Mum said and smeared white face paint all over Abby's face. She dribbled the fake blood so it looked as if it was coming out of Abby's eyes and mouth. She put gel all over Abby's hair and made it stand up into weird, pointy shapes. Abby put in the vampire teeth and slipped on the witch fingers. She made scary noises at Wow-wow, the cat. He ignored her and carried on washing himself on the seat next to her.

Abby earne to sit on her Mum's knee.

'It's fun doing this together,' she said.

'Maybe. But we still haven't found the change purse.'

'Well, you know things will get lost, or broken, when they're all

'You cheeky monkey!' Mum laughed. "But what shall I do with it all?'

'I know, it's easy,' Abby said and began to remove everything off the table into her arms. She put it all back in the kitchen drawer.

Mum looked at her suspiciously.

'Let's go and inspect your bedroom, shall we?'

Abby followed her upstairs and into her bedroom. Wow•Wow was sitting in front Of her fish tank looking hungrily ut the goldfish. dashed under the bed when he saw Mum and Abby, Mum kneeled down and lifted the bed cover to get him out. Underneath were heaps of Abby's toys, books, tapes, clothes and shoest empty plastic cups, wrappers and a half-eaten sandwich on a plate.

'Abby: What's all this?'

'It's my tidy drawer," Abby said. She wrapped her arms around her Mum and gave her a kigg. 'Let's sort this one together now.'

When Mum came to Abby's room she saw 1) her daughter reading her table.

2)     the cat looking at the fish.

3)     a terrible mess all over the place, Abby dressed up as a vampire.

Abby egreed to tidy up her room because Mother

Where did Abby find many interesting things?

1)  In her Mother's change purse.

2)  Under her bed.

3)  On the kitchen table,

Chocolate is made from the seeds of the tree Theobroma cacao. The ancient Aztecs used the beans of the cacao tree as form of money. The Aztecs discovered that by crushing the beans into a paste and adding spices, they could make a refreshing and nourishing drink. This drink was very bitter, not like our chocolate drinks today. 16th century European explorers brought the drink back from their travels, added sugar, and soon it wag popular expensive luxury.

You can receive a, •sweet tooth' from your Recent study At New York University suggests there is a genetic reason why some people prefer sugary foods. The study was based on two groups of mice. The parents of the first group were given sweetened water and the parents of the second — unsweetened water. The team round gene that was different in the two groups of mice and then looked for similar genetic chains in

C. All modern chocolate products have large amounts Of  faež which tilAÿ partly explain why it becomes a sort of drug for some people. An ability to recognize sweet things, and tendency to like them wag very tjseful for our forefAihers. Such a genetic quality made prehistoric humans look for energy-rich, healthy and tasty food such fruit, Atid helped them avoid bitter-tasting poisonous plants.

Like other swcet food, chocolate helps endorphins, natural hormones, that give us the feelings Of pleasure end. well-being, to appear in our body. Chocolate also makes us feel good by reacting with our brains. Scientists say that some people may develop chocoholigrn — a dependency on chocolate. So it's just possible that, with every bar of chocolate, your brain changes step by step in order to make you love chocolate more and morel

E.       Back in the 17th and 18th centuries, many scientific works were written explaining the advantuges of chocolate for medicine, and today it's u regular food in army rations. Chocolate could help prevent tooth decay, according to scientists at Japan's Osaka The cocoa beans from which chocolate is made have an antibacterial agent fights tooth decay. These parts of the beans are not usually used in chocolate production, but in future they could be added back in to chocolate to make it friendly for teeth.

F.        Californian scientist Professor Carl Keen and his team have suggested that chocolate might help fight heart diseage. They say that it contains chemicals called flavinoids, which thin the blood. Researchers at Harvard University have carried out experiments that suggest that if you eat chocolate three times a month you will live almost a, year longer than those who don't do it. But it'S not all good news — chocolate has much fat, which means that eating too much of it may lead to obesity.

G.      Being very fat, or obese, is linked to marry health problems including heart disease and diabetes. The causes ot obesity are not yet fully understood. Both genes and the environment play a role. The recent growth of the number of fat people seems to be linked to environmental factors: people are much less active nowadays, fatty and sugary foods like chocolate are cheap, people eat larger portions of food, and the calories per person have increased.

But to increase the effectiveness, some intensity must be added to their exercise. 'Across your day, while you are achieving those 10,000 steps, take 200 to 400 of them at a faster pace. You've got to do more than light exercise and include regular moderate activity, and don't be shy to have an occasional period of time at an energetic level.' The researchers were concerned there was too much focus  rather than on its intensity.

Professor Stuart Biddle, an expert in exercise science at the University of Loughborough, said it was possible that the current guidelines on how much exercise to take were set too low. "However, you have got to find F


The harder you make it, the fewer people will actually do it.' Professor Biddle said there was no doubt that energetic exercise was the way to get fit, but volume rather than intensity might be more useful in tackling issues such as obesity.

In the morning Abby jumped out of bed and switched on the light in her fish tank. Gerry, the fat orange goldfish, was dozing inside the stone archway. It took Abby a while to discover Mr. Sticky because he was clinging to the glass near the bottom, right next to the gravel.

At school that day she wrote about the mysterious Mr. Sticky who was so small you could mistake him for a piece of gravel. Some of the girls in her class said he seemed an ideal pet for her and kept giggling about it.

*Just as well if he's going to be eaten up like that,' her Mum "H'd, trying to put on her coat and eat toast at the same time. 'But I don't want him to get too huge or he won't be cute anymore. Small things are cute aren't they?'

'Yes they are. Now hurry upt I'm going to miss my train.'

At the weekend they cleaned out the tank. 'There's a lot of filth on the sides,' Mum said. 'I'm not sure Mr. Sticky's quite up to the job yet. t

They took the fish out and put them in a bowl while they emptied some of the water. Mr. Sticky stayed out of the way, clinging to the glass while Mum used the special •vacuum cleaner' to clean the gravel. Abby cleaned the archway and the filter tube. Mum poured new water into the tank.

'Where's Mr. Sticky?' Abby asked.

'On the side,' Mum said. She was busy concentrating on the water,

Abby looked on all sides of the tank. There was no sign of the water snail.

'He's probably in the gravel then,' her mum said. She put the fish back in the clean water where they swam round and round, looking baffled.

That evening Abby went up to her bedroom to examine the tank. The water had settled and looked lovely and clear but there no sign Of Sticky, She went downstairs.

Her nwm was in the study surrounded by papers. She looked impatient when she saw Abby in             doorway and even more impatient when she heard the bad news.

'What's wrong with being small?'

*Nothing at all. But, it makes things hard to find.' 'Or notice,' Abby said and ran from the room.

The door to the bedroom opened and Mum's face tappeared. Abby tried to ignore her but it was hard when she walked over to the bed and sat next to her. She holding her glasses in her hand. *These             my new pair,' she said„ 'Extra powerful, for snail hunting.' She smiled at Abby. Abby tried not to smile

'And I've got a magnifying glass,' Abby suddenly remembered and rushed off to find it.


They sat beside each other on the floor with the tank between them und peered into the water.

'Ah hat' Mum suddenly cried.

There, perfectly hidden against the dark stone, sat Mr. Sticky. And right next to him was another water snail, even smaller than hintY 'Mrs. Sticky? Abby breathed.

The secret tunnel

In the middle of our village, there is a beautiful old church, which dates back to the beginning of the Middle Ages. It was rebuilt several but some of its parts, including the foundations, are well, [331  about restoration, a while ago they decided to install a heating system there, as it gets cold in winter. Some of the local boys volunteered to help, including myself.

The benches were connected in stacks, so it -was hard work to lift or to push them away, but we mangged it. Most of the church floor was covered with marble-type slabs, but under some benches there were just SOtne ancient-looking bricks,

We got really  as we had heard stories about an old underground passageway leading from a crypt below the church to the castle in the nearest city, It is twelve miles

So, a friend of mine and I started to dig down there. It was relatively easy io pull out the top layer of bricks, and underneath them we found soil, which also moved easily as it was completely dry@ We found that one side of the hole was so soft that you could just  a stick through it. It obviously passageway! Then workmen came in and told us to stop. Just fancy that! We had to stop at the most exciting moment.

After a few days, the workmen put a layer of hard cement over the entire floor, our find remained A Îttygtery. But I won't give  I still hope some day and find that secret tunnel. Maybe, that will become the greatest of the 21st century.

A.     A unique food battle festival known as La Tomatina is celebrated in Spain every year on the last Wednesduy of August. It involves thousands of people engaging in a brutal battle, throwing overripe tomatoes At each other. The festival spans more than a week and although there are many elements to the festival, such as parades, music, dancing and fireworks, they are all centered on the tomato fight.

B.      Spanish cuisine is a heavenly mixture of chicken, mixed vegetables, fish and meats. Many of the most popular Spanish dishes are a type of Paella, which is a rice dish that features a variety of ingredients. Hot chocolate and churros are very popular desserts throughout the country. Spain is also famous for its aromatic wines and other alcoholic beverages like Sangraa, Cava and authentic Spanish beer.

C.      Spain Is very rich with traditions, especially those associated with food. For breakfast, some families buy fresh churros, pair them with hot chocolate and enjoy a leisurely mornmg routine. Luneh is another important meal of the day, and it is usually heavier than breakfast. This is sometimes followed by siesta, an afternoon nap to get through post-lunch drowsiness. During this time, shops close and then open again after two or three hours of rest.

D.     Spain is an important resting spot for migratory birds, and a home for many animals. But, unfortunately, many speeieg of wildlife face threats from habitat loss and pollution. Due to centuries of tree cutting, large forests are now found only in u few areas in the country. Spain has created many national parks and refuges, but they cover only about seven percent of the country.

E.      Although there is a national parliament, Spain is one of the most decentralized democracies in Europe. Each of its 17 regions manages its own schools, hospitals, and other public services. The tourist services industry drives Spain's economy, but at the same time, since 1986, when Spain joined the European Community, it has worked to diversify its economy, by building important industries such as mining, shipbuilding, and textiles.

F.       Bullfighting is one of the most famous traditions in Spain. Thig risky sport evolved from the ancient Roman gladiator games, with human matadors opposing charging bulls. However, this tradition has lately become widely debated and younger generations and animal-rights activists protest against bullfighting, Either way, it remains an icoruc part of the country and bullfights take place in many Spanish towns and cities.

LA siesta is a well-known aspect of Spanish culture. Seeking to balance work with pleasure, Spaniards have long practiced this tradition, when students and professionals return to their homes around midday for a big lunch, followed by a few hours of rest and family time, Many businesses also shut down for a short break. However, 21st-century big cities move at a faster pace, and don't take siestas, but many people in smaller towns and villages still take a siesta each day.

When I grow up

When I was in kindergarten, my class was asked, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Colorful crayons danced sheets Of paper to illustrate our dream occupations and cherished jobs, Our drawings were hung in the school hallway for our parents to see at Back to School Night. I remember looking down the line and seeing pictures of pretty ballerinas dancing, brave firefighters putting out a blaze, and fearless astronauts leuping across the moon — admirable careers that were seen as typical dreams of five-year-old kids.


My picture showed a stick figure with brown disheveled hair holding a carton of orange juice over a large rectangle that was supposed to be a counter. Underneath was my barely legible handwriting: "When I grow up, I want to work at the Market Basket because it would be fun to swipe orange juice across the scanner and talk to customers." To this day my parents won't let rne forget that out of everything I could have aspired to be, my five-year-old self wished to work at the local grocery store.

When we are young, questions of what we want to be when we grow up are common. Yet we are not expected respond with an answer that is likely to come true. However, when we become teenagers, we are asked the very same question twice as often. The difference is, now we are supposed to answer with confidence,

Teenagers are expected to know exactly what they want to be and how they are going to achieve that govil. Not all of us eun be so sure at this age. Even though I am in high school, I cannot answer convincingly. But don't consider that a bad thing. How am I supposed to know what I will want to spend my time doing at the age of thirty or forty?

When think about the future, I definitely don't see myself working at the counter of the Market Basket, but in reality, if that was what would make me happy, would do it. so, the next time someone asks what I want to be when I grow up, I will simply say, want to be happy." And it is hope that drives us in this direction.

"Hope is not a grain of sand," the Gambian poet, Lenrie Peters, echoes, but no matter how tiny it is, it would Still be sufficient to keep the youth alive and gang in most extreme circumstances. It is hope that spurs the youth on, to be up and doing, It is hope that keeps the youth going no matter how hard it is. Nelson Mandela as a youth hoped against all hope for the liberation Of his people and he actually lived to see his hope being fulfilled. Robinson Crusoe, cast away on an uninhabited island, hoped against all hope for survival and this propelled him to start from scratch and build a compound and large farm single—handedly,

Fur away in "Another Country: the Land of Literature," Sister Eileen Sweeney sums up through her writings that Hope is the anchor that keeps "the ship" called "youth" steadfastly held together no matter the high and Stormy sea Of passion, pain, distress or tribulation that butter against it.

Happiness is a destination for everyone. We may want to walk different paths in life, narrow or wide, crooked or straight, but we all want to be happy wherever we end up. Choose your path, but don't worry Coo much about choosing wisely. Make  mistake or two and try new things. But always remember, if you're not happy, you're not at the end of your journey yet,

In what way did the children in the kindergarten answer the question about their dream occupation?

1)  They described their parents' actual occupation.

2)  They took pictures of parents at. the Rack CO School Night.

3)  They drew people of their dream careers in action.

4)  They made up a list of the most common and wide-spread professions.

Why did the author want to work in the local grocery store?

l) It seemed to be an enjoyable occupation.

2)    It was quite realistic career goal.

3)   


Her parents spoke a lot about it. 4) She liked to make orange juice.

According to the author, when you grow up the questions about career choice become

1)   less convincing.

2)   less common.

3)   more frequent.

4)   more stressful.

15

4 That" in "But I don't consider that a bad thing" (paragraph 4) refers to

1)  knowing in your teens exactly what you want to be.

2)  working at the counter Of the Market Basket grocery Store.

3)  being unsure of your future career when in high school.

4)  having A definite idea of how to achieve one's career goal.

16

 

What would the author most probably like to do in the future?

1)    Write poems about difficulties of youth.

2)    Work as an independent farmer.

3)    Work for a local supermarket chain.

4)    Do a job that brings her satisfaction.

Examples with Nelson Mandela and Robinson Crusoe are mentioned by the author to

1)   illustrate wise and successful career choiees@

2)   prove how important it is not to lose hope,

3)   inspire teenagers to believe in their own effort. 4) show what to do in extreme circumstaneesy

What conclusion does the author make?

1)   Make a wise choice when thinking of your future professiony

2)   Look for an activity that makes you happyy

18

21

3)  


DO not forget about the happiness of other people.

4)   Be careful not to make a mistake when trying new things, Orger:

St. Paul's School

At my prep school I wes top in almost every subject without having to do much tttOte than any other child, and I was called "swot"  it never worried me, At Ste Paul's there turned 13@]_ to be several boys who were cleverl but none of them could touch me when it came to maths. I enjoyed a subject so many of my classmates seemed to dread, I couldn't wait Tor the next algebraic equation, a further geometric puzzle or the challenge of solving arithmetic test in my head while others in the form sucked their pencils as they 136]  pages of figures.

I did quite well in other subjects and although I was not much good at games I tap the cello and was invited to join the school orchestra, but my form master none of this was important because I was obviously going to be a mathematician for the rest of my life. didn't understand what he meant at the timel as I knew Dad had left school at fourteen to help my grandfather to sell fruit and vegetables at his small grocery. Mum had gone London University, but she  had to work to keep Dad "in the style to which he'd become accustomed:' Or that's what I  to hear Mum telling him at breakfast trom time to time.

A. Flamingos are very social and often live in large groups, called colonies, throughout the world. They are found in both the Eastern and Western hemispheres. The American Flamingo is the only one that lives in the wild in North America, and on many Caribbean islands such as the Bahamas, Cuba, and Hispaniola. It also lives in narthern Sauth America, the Galgpagos Islands, and parts of Mexico..

 Flamingos fish while walking in shallow water end mud, When a flamingo notices its potential dinner (for example, shrimp, snails, and plantlike water organisms), it plunges its head into the watert twists its head upside down, and scoops the fish up using its upper beak like a. shovel. Flamingos get their pink coloring from the carotenoid pigment in their food, which is the same pigment that makes carrote orange,

C. Flamingoe build nests that look like mounds of mud along waterways. The parents take turns sitting on the egg to keep it wgrtn nnd after about 30 days the egg hatches. Young flamingos are born white, with softy downy feathers and a straight bill. Both adult birds look after the newl*Žlrn flgmingo. The young leave the nest after about five days to join other young Tlarningog in small groups, returning to their parents for food.

Scientists aren't 100% sure why flamingos stand on one leg, but they have some theories. One theory says that it is to keep one leg warm. Another idea is that flamingos are drying out one leg at Lime, A third theory states that it helps them deceive their catch, because one leg looks more like a plant than do two, Whatever the reason, it is truly amazing that these top heavy birds can balance on one leg for hours at a. time.

E. Ancient Egyptians believed that flamingoe were the living representation of the god R.n. In the Americas, the Mache people Of ancient Peru worshipped nature and paid a great deal of attention to these birds and often depicted flamingos in their art. However, Andean miners killed flamingos for their fat, which is believed to be remedy for tuberculosis, and in Ancient Rome their tongues were considered a, delicacy.

Many people have plastic flamingos in their yards as ornaments, This is a fun and inexpensive way to add some elegance to one's landscaping, In many parts of the world flamingos are popular collectibles, appearing in the form of magnets. water globes, and jewelry. They are also said be an image that people find Co be calming and exciting at the same time. For these purposes people buy millions of plastic flamingos annually all around the world.


G. Flamingos have been affected in many ways by global warming. One of the biggest concerns is making nests and laying eggs, Flamingos depend on rainfall to help them mate and without adequate rain they won't engage in Many researchers find that global warming reduces the chance of rain and can cause drought in some of the areas where they live. This could mean a significant reduction of offspring in the years ahead.

Running a multilingual European Union

The use of 23 official languages is the public face of the European Union (ELI). The reasons A  are not hard to identify: they are democracy, transparency and the right to know. New legislation must be published and made available in a language all EU citizens can understand, The use of all official languages Also makes it easier for people to participate in public debates and consultations

Its law-making function and the direct involvement of its citizens explain  like the United Nations or NATO, which operate only at the intergovernmental level with no legislative function. The United Nations, with more than 190 members, uses only six languages. The Council of Europe, , publishes official documents only in English and French, as does NATO.

8APMAHT2                                                                                                                                                 67

Running multilingual EU comes at a price. But it is modest price when set against the results. The annual cost of translation and interpretation is about 10/0 of the ELI budget, E . The total cost has risen by only margin despite the arrival of 12 new countries since 2004.

The EU institutions have adjusted their procedures over the years to handle the rising number of official languages. Translators work with written texts, and interpreters with the spoken word. But they must Obe able to translate or interpret into their main language, F, from at least two other EU languages.

1.    with more members than the EU

2.    which is usually their mother tongue

3.    that the EU launches, often online

4.    which is a little over 2 for every citizen

5.    why the EU uses so many official languages

6.    that was earlier translated into three main languages

7.    why the EU uses more languages than multinational bodies

Internet safety issues

The fact is that 93 percent of kids are online.

Even if parents limit or ban internet access, kids have access at school, through friend's smart phone, libraries, and schools. The internet is a tool that our children need to use and master with wisdom dispensed by parents. We need tech-savvy youth who will grow up to be leaders of the community.

Many schools use websites such as EdModo to connect students and teachers. My friend Reem js the vice principal of an Islamic School. She says that many teachers assign work from school that children need to research online. Some of the best homeschooling regourees are online.

Far too many parents do not allow their children monitored access to the internet, leading ta two scenarios. Their children end up lying and using it behind their back; or are so sheltered that they do not know how to conduct themselves online when they finally do get access.

On the other hand, more often than not, there are parents who freely give unmonitored access.

But caretakers raising children in today's world need to think about several issues:  How does a parent knaw if his/her child is engaging in inappropriate Internet activities?

       How would a parent know if his/her child is cyber-bullied if he or she does not tell them?

According to Common Sense Media, "Young teens don't yet have an "off" switch in their brains. That means that they often act impulsively. This lack of impulse control, combined with online anonymity, could lead toward dangerous behuviors; cyber-bullying, inappropriate photo or video uploads, illegal downloads, meeting strangers — even cheating. Because socializing is so important to young peopleï online interactions can pretty intense whether they're pleying chatting with friends, or sharing work.

Using open communication and thoughtful intervention, parents can help their wired offspring learn bow maneuver ele•ct.ronic gadgets and the World Wide Web, Here are some tips on how to give children monitored access the Internet:  spend time with your children online@  ask to sce their Facebook page, their Instagrams, and Twitter feed. It may seem like a foreign territory, but it. is imperut.ive that parents talk to their children about social media, At this stage, it is not our job to try to protect them by isolating them@ It is our jab to teach them bow to deal with information and with people.

       younger children often play on websites such as Movie St*r Planet, Moshi Monsterst and new ones pop up every day. Most of these sites teach extreme consumerism as children •play' to accumulate points or currency and use it to 'buy' stuff: furniture, VIP passes, etc.; urging your child to become 'Rich and Famous.' As responsible parents, we need to prevent children from becoming mindless consumers. Il' you do allow your child to visit these sites, then watch them while they play.

      


teach them not to talk to or chat with random strangers. That person with  name GirlIe45 possibly, be a middle-aged predator, Teach them that everything that they put online is forever. Anyone can cut, copy and paste pictures and text. Teach them how to be safe online because today it, is important as safety basics about locking the door or not playing with matches,

A.      Eight thousand feet uln:vve sea level, this fivemcentury•old pre-Columbian site was once home to the Incas. Until American historian Hiram Bingham publicized his findings of the area in a book called u Across South America," the mountain-top ruins were widely unknown to anyone living outside of the Urubamba Valley. Since Spanish colonialists had no idea of Machu Picchu's existence, Incan architecture and design of the buildings were preserved.

B.     


Does the arrangement of the 25-ton sandstone blocks at Stonehenge suggest some sort of spiritual prediction? No one really knows. Theories about the nearly 5.000-yearOld circular stone structure vary. The mast intriguing time to visit Stonehenge is at sunset when a yellow-orange glow can be seen through the magnificent towers' arches making some people believe that it was originally a place of healing, while others think it was used for ancestor worship.

C.      The 1,500-year-old pyramids, located near the town of Meridu, may be less than their equivalents in Egypt, but they just as remarkable, Although there are many structures there like the Temple of the Warriors or the Wall of Skulls, the main attraction is El Castillo, the 78-faot, 91-gtep central pyramid. The Absolute best time to travel to El Castillo ig at sunset when shadows give the illusion that a large serpent ig sliding down the pyramid.

D.      The Earth's southernmost point, Antarctica, is the driest and coldest of the seven continents. For a place that is 98 per cent covered in one-mile-deep ice, it is hard to imagine why anyone would want to visit it At all. But there is a strange beauty about Antarctica that is incomparable to anywhere else on the planet. Anyway, while Antarctica has no permanent residents, there are often up to 5,000 researchers working there at a time.

E.       It is believed that hundreds of years ago the natives of Buster Island carved massive heads out of stone to honor their uneestors. Today, there are 887 "moai," as the statues are called, which create a mysterious, yet intriguing landscape on this Polynesign island, which is a four-and-a-half hour flight from Lima, Peru. The tullegt statue on the island, named Paro, is 33 feet high und weighs 82 tons.

F.       North America's Red Canyon is 277 river miles long, eighteen miles wide, and one mile deep, and if it doesn't make your mouth drop with surprise, then you might not be human: Most tourists go there by car and there are plenty of spots along the way to pull the car over and have a look from the top. You can algo go down into the canyon's depths and experience the very heart of the canyon hy going rafting on the Colorado River, and even spend the night at a hotel below the rom.

G.      Thousands of miles long, the Great Wall ot China is the largest cultural object humans have ever built. Il majestically snakes through China, winds around rising and falling hills, twists through an enormous countryside, and stretches from Shanhaiguan in the east to Lop Lake in the west. However, the wall was constructed more than 2,000 years ago not to amaze people, but in an attempt to keep out invading tribes from the north.

Finding your sportsman spirit

Doing sports, we can really test our physical fitness in contest, and it is one of the only wuys that nations clash peacefully. Sportsmen and sportswomen are today's warriors — the contests Aon the pitches and courts are the closest things we have to gladiatorial fighting.

11


If sportsmen are like warriors, then the  spirit' could be considered the closest thing we have to warrior's code — to bushido or to chivalry. If you develop good sportsmanship then this means that you take joy in the contest and at the same time B, that, you win graciously and that you don't cheat.

If you have put time and effort into traming then you are aware of the blood, sweat and tears that the opposition has put in well. They will have had the same dedication to their game as you have und you will know precisely C

In this you are brothers (or sisters) and the only difference between you is different teams. For this reason they deserve your

respect.

There are many traditions in many to help us retain good relationships with our opponents. This means things like shaking hands at the end af a tennis match, and this is Eand honourable rather thun just being muddy skirmishes.

You might have performed brilliantly on the pitch, but you are kidding yourself if you believe Fof your own doing, If nothing else, the wenther and luck will have played a role in the outcome, and if you're playing a. team sport then you are only one cog in a machine.

Your amazing brain

You carry around a three-pound mass Of wrinkly material in your head that controls every single thing you will ever do. From enabling you think, learn, create; end feel emotions to controlling every blink, breath, and heartbeat — this fantastic control center is your brain. It is structure so amazing that in the foreword to Discovering the Brain, famous scientist James Watson wrote, "The brain is the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe. It contains hundreds of billions of cells interlinked through trillions of connections. The brain confuses the mind." Obviously to understand brain function, we need to confront its complexity,

Imagine your kitten is on the kitchen counter. She's about bo step onto a stove. You have only seconds to act. Accessing the signals coming from your eyes, your brain quickly calculates when, where, and at what speed you will need to dive to intercept her. Then it orders your muscles to do so. Your timing is perfect and she's safe, No computer can come Close to your brain's awesome ability to download, process, and react to the flood Of information coming from your eyes, ears, and other sensory organs.


Your brain contains abotat 100 billion microscopic cells called neurons — so many it would take you over 3,000 years to count them all. Whenever you dream, laugh, think, gee, or move, it'S because tiny chemical and electrical signals are racing between these neurons along billions of tiny neuron highways. Believe it or not, the activity in your brain never stopg. Countless messages zip ground inside it every second like a supercharged pinball machine. Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the entire world. And while a Single neuron generates only a tiny amount Of electricity, all your neurons together generate enough electricity to power a low-wattage bulb,

Neurons send information to your brain at more than 150 miles

(241 kilometers) per hour. For example, a bee lands on your bare foot. Sensory neurons in your skin relay this information to your spinal cord and brain at a speed of more than 150 miles (241 kilometers) per hour. Your brain then uses motor neurons to transmit the message back through your spinal cord to your foot to shake the bee off quickly. Motor neurons can relay this information at more than 200 miles (322 kilometers) per hour.

Riding a bike seems impassible at first. But soon you master it. How? As you practice, your bruin sends "bike riding" messages along certain pathways of neurons over and over, forming new connections. In fact, the structure of your brain changes every time you learn, as well as whenever you have a new thought or memory.

It is well known that uny exercise that makes YOUT heart beat faster, like running or playing basketball, is great for your body and even help improve your mood, But large-scale efforts of scientists from u group of institutes from the National Institutes of Health have recently showed that for period of time after you've exercised, your body produces a chemical that makes your brain more receptive for gaining new knowledge. So if you're stuck on a homework problem, go out and play a game of soccer, then try the problem again. You just might discover that you're able to solve it.

According ta the text, the most distinctive characteristic of the bruin is its 1) ability to control the body.           3) size.

2) elaborateness.                                             4) weight.

The claims that the brain is better than any computer because it

1)  processes more information.

2)  works faster.

3)  can download information from different sources. 4) reacts to information more adequately.

According to the text, the work Of brain neurons influences

l) electricity production.                                3) everything we do.

2) our dreams.                                                 4) character of messages we send.

The narrator compares the work Of neurons to pinball machine to

l) show the character of brain work.

2)     raise the awareness of the brain's nature.

3)    


stress the amount of information that, the brain processes. illustrate the shape of the neuron highways.

Comparing sensory and motor neurons, we can make a conclusion that 1) motor neurons transmit information faster.

2)    there are more motor neurons.

3)    sensory neurons transmit information faster. there are more sensory neurons.

The structure of brain changes when

1)   our memory fails.           3) we are riding a bike.

2)   new neurons appear.         we acquire new knowledge.

Physical exercises proved to be good for 1) the production of brain chemicals.

2) solving homework problems. 3) giving the brain a rest. maintaining a good mood.

"Looking for Alaska" by John Green

"Looking for Alaska", written by John Green, is a story that will leave the reader moved by the characters. The readers will things about themselves they may have never known@

The author graduated from Kenyon College and worked for the "Booklist" journal, He reviewed hundreds of books, particularly literary fiction. In  he critiqued novels for "The New York Times" nook His first novel "Looking for Alaska" was mostly  by his experience boarding school@ This book made the "Top 10 Best Book for Young Adults" and undoubtedly


The novel is flewlessly written, moving and stimulating. All the characters are real and can create connections with their audience. They no longer seem to behave like fictional characters, but rather real people that have similar problems and ideas as young adults nowadays„  of this, readers are able to recognize their own search for self-identity or labyrinths they must escape through the main characters,

Overall, I would recommend this novel to kids in high school. The characters in this stary showed me the good and bad parts of life and still me want to live through them. This novel generated a spectrum of emotions with each page

A. Max Factor is often called the father of modern make-up. The success story started in Max's early years. He was born Max Faktorowicz in Lodz, Poland, near the Russian border, around 1877. With 10 children, his parents could not afford formal education for their children, so at the age of eight Max was placed in an apprenticeship to a pharmacist. Years of mixing potions for the pharmacy developed his fascination with cosmetics.


 Eventually, Max opened his own shop in u suburb at Moscow, selling hand-made cosmetics. "Health and beauty products" became an important busines for him. A traveling theatrical troupe bought and wore Max's make•up and wigs while performing for Russian nobility. Soon Max the official cosmetic expert for members of the Russian court, the Imperial Grand Operu and the Ballet.

C.     In 1904, Max and his family moved to the United States. Max Fnktorowic:z was now Max Factor, the name given Lo him at Ellis Island by immigration officials. Now Max Factor was dreaming of movie actors and actresses using his products. He moved his family to Angeles. In 1914, Factor created a make-up specifically for movie actors that, unlike thick theatrical make-up, would not crack.

D.    The development of color film production required the Max Factor company to develop new line of products. The existing make-up reflected surrounding colors. As a result of how bad they looked, many actors and Actresses refused to appear in color films. At this time Frank Factor, Max's son, took the lead and developed a suitable product. It had solid cake form and was applied with a damp sponge, which concealed skin imperfections.

 Soon actresses and other women working on movies gets were stealing new makeup to use in their personal lives. Its only disadvantage for everyday use was that it made the skin too dark under regular lights, having been designed for the powerful lights used in film studios. Frank Factor began developing lighter shades. In 1937, new "Pancake" make-up was released to the public and it became one of the fastest selling cosmetic items.

F. After Max Factor's death, Frank Factor took the name MAX Factor, Jr., and expanded the still private cosmetics firm. The company began development of a smear-proof lipstick which would not fade. A special machine constructed to test the formula's resistance. The result was "Tru-Color" lipstick in six shades of red. During World War Il, Max Factor developed make-up shades for use by the US Marine Corps in camouflaging faceth

G, Max Factor, Jr., continued his commercially successful developments, such as cream make-up supplied in stick form. Soon the company offered shampoo for ornen and its first perfume called "Electrique". The early 1960s saw the company go public and list its stock on the New York Stock Exchange. This period also saw the third generation of the Factor family rise to senior positions within the company.

The discovery Of three planets

In 1781, William Herschel, viewing the sky, recogni7.ed that an object in the constellation of Gemini was moving against the background of stars. At first, he thought he was looking at A new comet, but upon further investigation realized

Herschel named his discovery 'the Georgian planet' after his patron,


George Ill. Other names proposed included Herschel and Uranus. Eventually Uranus became the universally accepted name. Uranus is similar in composition to Neptune, and both Blarger gas giants Jupiter and Saturn.

In the 19th century it became evident that the orbit of Uranus did not follow Newton's law of Gravitation. Many astronomers began to question whether Newton's theory applied to an object so far from the sun. However, two astronomers, John Couch Adams in England and Urbain Le Verrier in France, both Independently came up with the theory C  by a more distant planet.

Working to Le Verrier's calculations, astronomers at the Berlin Observatory They had discovered the eighth planet of the solar system, Neptune. It was observed on 23 September 1846 by Johann Gallet and its largest moon, Triton, was discovered shortly thereafter, though none E telescopically until the 20th century.

After the discovery of Neptune, astronomers F solar system for u ninth planet. In 1930, an American astronomer discovered the last of the known worlds of our solar system, Pluto.

It is tempting to see the river Thames as another artery in London's integrated transport system, the same colour blue on the map as the Victoria Underground line. In this ideal world, passengers move effortlessly from river ferry to train, bus or Tube, continuing their seamless journey carefree.

Unfortunately, that is not exactly how it is. Father Thames is not as kind and even-tempered as it might seem as one is looking at the map. It is a muddy, tidal creek whose flukish currents insidiously rip round the base of bridges. Navigation is hard. And the river is not  it does giant loops, especially around the Canary Wharf financial district. A passenger alighting from a river ferry often has to walk five or ten minutes to the nearest land connection.

With London's Tube and buses bursting at the seams, a succession of entrepreneurs have braved these negatives and tried unsuccessfully to set up commuter services on this natural highway. Sean Collins reckons he is the 15th since 1905 — but this time things may have changed. His business, which started as Collins River Enterprises in 1999, shows every sign of surviving its second decade, despite the economy's woes and volatile fuel costs. Thames Clippers, as the firm is called these days, carried 3.2m passengers in 2009, running fast catamarans between Woolwich, downriver of the city centre, and Waterloo.


Perhaps Mr. Collins, now its managing director, simply was lucky enough to pick the right time. The past decade has been kind to the Thames. Big property developments have sprung up on both sides of the river, and more are on their way before the 2012 Olympic games. And so far, at least, Canary Wharf seems to be weathering the financial storm. But there has been still another advantage: both public and private backing for the firrn have been crucial.

Thames Clippers gets a gmull subsidy from Transport for London (TfL), part of the Greater London Authority. A big step towards welcome integration came in November, when passengers were first allowed to use their TfL Oyster fare cards on Thames Clippers, too. And recently, Greenwich Council agreed to pay J269,000 for guaranteed service between Greenwich and Woolwich over the next four years.

One big problem is the jumbled ownership and management of landing piers: TfL owns 7 of the 13 in central London and various property developers the rest. At piers used jointly, the situation does not favour the ferries trying to stick to a timetable. They can be delayed by tourist boats hanging on for passengers. To have more control of its schedule, Thames Clippers took over the lease of the privately-owned London Bridge City Pier in November.

Another impediment is the unnecessarily rigid restriction an speed. The Port of London Authority (PLA) imposes a 12-knot limit west of Wupplng, which means that boats can show their exhilarating 30•knot cruising speed only on the eastern stretches of the river.

The PLA supports the plan to get more people on the river but insists that safety is paramount. It also points out that tourists and freight, not just commuters, use the Thames. So for the moment, Thames Clippers' civilised catamarans to and from Waterloo remain a secret pleasure for the cognoscenti.

I) fully integrated into London's transport system.

3)    an ideal way to travel round the cit'$%

"I'd like to know some details concerning Number 147 Chelsea Terrace," I said, "Would madam please excuse me?" he and walked over to a filing cabinet. He no attempt to invite me in or even to offer me a chair. He placed the single sheet on the countertop and studied it closely.

"A greengrocer's shop," he said. "Yes. What prieo is the owner asking for the property?" I asked. I was becoming more and more annoyed by being go obviously ignored. "One hundred and fifty guineas is being asked for the shop," the assistant, his eyes fixed on the bottom line of the schedule. The shop turned out to be ridiculously expensive. I made my  back to Chelsea, only too aware that I had no intention of buying a shop in the neighbourhood,

 Modern WesteTn theatre comes in large measure from ancient Greek drama, from which it takes technical terminology, classification into genres, and many of its themes, stock characters, and plot elements, The Greeks also developed the concepts of dramatic criticism, acting as a career, and theatre architecture. The theatre of ancient Greece consisted Of three types of dramat tragedy, comedy, and the satyr play.

B.      Western theatre developed and expanded consaderably under the Romans. The Roman historian Livy wrote that the Romans first experienced theatre in the 4th century BC. The theatre of ancient Rome was a thriving and diverse art form, ranging from festival performances of street theatre, nude dartcung, and acrobatics, to the staging Of broadly appealing situation comedies, to the high-gtÿle, verbally elaborate tragedies,

C.      Theatre took on many different forms in the West between the 15th and 19th centuries, including commedia dell'arte and melodrama. The general trend wag away from the poetic drama of the Greeks and the Renaissance and toward a more naturalistic prose style of dialogue, especially following the Industrial

Theatre today, broadly defined, includes performances of plays and musicals, ballets, operas and various other farms.

D.      The eighteenth century in Britain introduced women to the stage, which would have been extremely inappropriate before. These women were looked at as celebrities but on the other hand, it was still very new and revolutaonary that they were on the stage and some said they were unladylike and looked down on. Charles Il did not like young men playing the parts of young women, so he asked that women play their own parts.

 Theatre took a big pause during 1642 and 1660 in England because of Cromwell's Interregnum. Theatre was seen something sinful and the Puritans tried very hard to drive it out of their society. Because of this stagnant period, once Charles Il carne back to the throne in 1660, theatre (among other arts) exploded beenuse Of a lot Of influence from France, where Chgrles in exile the years previous to his reign.

 Stagecraft is a term referring to the technical aspects of theatrical, film, and video production. It includes constructmg scenery, hanging and focusing of lighting; design and procurement or costumes, makeup, prop,g, stage management, and recording and mixing of sound. Considered a technical rather than an artistic field, it is equally crucial for the implementation of a designer's artistic idea,

G. While most modern theatre companies rehearse one piece of theatre at time, perform that piece for a set "run". retire the piece, and begin rehearsing a new show, repertory companies rehearse multiple shows at one time. Repertory theatre generally involves a group or similarly accomplished actors, and relies more on the reputation of the group than on an individual star actor.

Internet

Internet is one of the greatest tools we have today. Billions of bits of information, unlimited ways to connect, games to play, videos to watcht things to learn. There's something for everyone. We Facebook, tumble, stumble, and tweet more now than ever. Social medla is connecting us in incredible ways. You can create communities of like-minded people that would never meet before on the Internet. But, due to this, we spending copious amounts of time on the World Wide Web, and it's slowly changing who you are as a person.

I went for a long period of time where I didn't read a book. I finally got around to picking up a few new books and as soon as I started reading them, I struggled. I couldn't hold concentration like I used to. I would read a whole paragraph with my mind elsewhere or had this constant anxious feeling to do something else, even when there was absolutely nothing else to do. My mind would jump from one thought to another and I barely could read a chapter in one sitting. A talked to a few people about this, and I even looked to the trusty Internet for my solution. I found that I'm not alone, many people report the same type of concentration shift. The reason for this is the information overload via Internet.

We take in 34 gigabytes of information each day now. That is 5 times more than we did 20 years ago. There is so much going on in our minds that we rarely spend any tune on one particular bit of information because there is always something new and more intriguing just around the corner. When we land on a webpage, we gpend the average of about 50 seconds, if that. and know that there are at least 5 other links we can click on the page. We can still concentrate, but our minds would much rather be focused on a series of things, not one thought.

Not only is it altering our concentration on reading long works, but it's changing "how" we read. We no longer read; we skim. This is our way of adapting to this information overload. It would take too long to process all this information und we don't need everything. We sift through the information and get to the main point or relevant material.

The way things are written online is changing for us as well. For anyone who has written blog post, it's a much different style of writing compared to novels and even newspaper articles. The things we read online are as clear and concise as possible. Adjectives are a thing of the past. The information is usually Already condensed for you, and is separated into neat headlines that make it easy to scan the page in a few seconds. We don't focus on comprehension anymore, we know what we're looking for and we find it quickly.

The way we are reading things is just the start, the way we are thinking is changing too. Before, we had calm linear thoughts, one thing led to another. Now, our thoughts are jumping buck and forth between so many things. We have one thought, which lends to four or five other non-related thoughts, and then some time later we return to the original thought. This is a direct result of our attention being focused on so many things for so little time on the web. There is always a link that can take us somewhere new and start new truin of thoughts.


We've developed mue}v more fluid way of thinking. And it's not a bad thing. It's making us more creative. You are much more efficient at combing and filtering through ideas, which in essence is what inspiration is. Linear thought is very organized and does not leave room tor new ideas.

So, the Internet has become an essential part of our daily But it's also important to disconnect for a while and Lo take care of your body and mind. Create a balance ot time online and in the real world, so you can reap the positive Cognitive abilities the Internet is giving you and avoid forming an unhealthy set of habits that will cost you later in life.

According to the author, Internet changes people because

l) Of the amount 0t information it provideth

2)    it adds lots of friends.

3)    they spend too much time online.

4)    it helps to create new communities.

Why does Internet, according to t.be author, influence reading concentration?

2)  It provides excessive information.

3) The information there changes too fast.

4) The bits of information there are very short.

Once, an acadcmic Emir Filipovi was researching a medieval Italian manuscript. It

that the manuscript was stained with inky eat paw prints. The discovery has placed Filipovi at the centre af a social media and he says he's still surprised how popular the photogruph has proved to be.

"Onc other important thing is that some people  to associate the past times history as a boring school subject focused on polities and wars.

The cat owners know how annoying it is to have purring cat trying to climb onto our keyboards while we're working, and I love the thought af a medieval writer being similarly irritated.

A.     Most people who spend a holiday travelling Lake a camera with them and photograph anything that interests them sights of a city, views of mountains, lakes, waterfalls, men and women, children, ruins Of ancient buildings, and even birds and animals. Later looking through their albums they will remember the happy time they have had, the islands, countries and cities they have seen.

B.     


Of course, different people dream of different things. Someone wishes a calm and quiet life; others imagine their life as a never-ending adventure. The majority dream of something concrete: a villa in some warm place, an account in a Swiss bank, a splendid car„. It's interesting to know what the dreams of people who already have all this are. Celebrities, as we know, never hide their unusual hobbies, and often shock us with their extravagant behaviour.

C.      It is Junior Baseball Magazine's mission to provide information that enhances the youth baseball experience for the entire family. The player improves his skills and is more successful. The family enjoys the activity more and shares this precious time in their life. Junior Baseball emphasizes good sportsmanship, safety, physical fitness and wholesome family values.

D.     The seas are in danger. They are filled with poison like industrial, nuclear and chemical waste. The Mediterranean Sea is already nearly dead; the North Sea is following it. The Aral Sea is on the brink of extinction. If nothing is done about it, one day nothing will be able to live in the seas. Every ten minutes one species of animal, plant or Insect dies out forever.

E.      Lots of people all over the world enjoy collecting stamps. Stamps are like little pictures. Very often they show the flowers or the trees which grow in this or that country, or they can show different kinds Of transport Of the country. Stamps rnay also have portraits of famous people on them. Some stamps show art work from the history Of the country.

F' "Friend" is the title of my favourite magazine. It consists of 70 pages, with lots of colourful and bright pictures and provides interesting and useful information for people who love animals. The magazine includes numerous articles devoted to various topics connected with domestic animals, ways to take care of them, pet food, animal health and many other topics crucial for any animal lover.

G. People are beginning to realize that environmental problems are not just somebody else's. Many people join and support various international organizations and green parties. Human life is the most important, and polluted air, poisoned watert wastelands, noise, smoke, gas, exhaust all influence not only nature but people themselves. Everything should be done to improve ecological conditions on our planet.

Mobile phones

On New Year's Day, 1985, Miehuel Harrison phoned his father, Sir Ernest, to wish him u happy new year. Sir Ernest was chairman of Racal Electronics, the owner of Vodafone, A

11


At the time, mobile phones weighed almost a kilogram, cost several thousand pounds and provided only 20 minutes talktime. The networks themselves were small; Vodafone had just a dozen masts covering London. Nobody hari any idea of the huge potential of wireless communication and the dramatic impact B

Hardly anyone believed there would come a day when mobile phones were so popular cBut in 1999 one mobile phone was sold in the UK every four seconds, und by 2004 there were more mobile phones in the UK than people. The boom was a result of increased competition which pushed prices lower and created innovations in the way that mobiles were sold.

When the government introduced more competition, companies started cutting prices to attract more customers. Cellnet, for example, changed its prices, D It also introduced local call tariffs.

The way that handsets themselves were marketed was also changing and it was Finland's Nokia who made EIn the late 1990s Nokia realized that the mobile phone was a fashion item: so Lit offered interchangeable covers which allowed you to customize and personalize your handset,

The mobile phone industry has spent the later part of the past decade reducing its monthly charge F, which has culminated in the tight between the iPhone and succession of touch screen rivals.

1.    trying to persuade people to do more with their phones than just call and text

2.    that there would be more phones in the UK than there are people  and relying instead on actual call charges

4.                    that mobile phones would have over the next quarter century

5.                    the leap from phones as technology to phones as fashion items

Llandudno

Llandudno is truly a fine and handsome place, built on a generously proportioned bay and lined along its broad front with a huddle of prim but gracious nineteenth• century hotels that reminded me in the fading light of a lineup of Victonan nannies. Llandudno was purpose-built as resort in the mid-1800s, and it cultivates a nice old-fashioned air. I don't suppose that Lewis Carroll, who famously strolled this front with little Alice Liddell in the 1860s, would notice a great deal of change today.

To my consternation, the town was packed with weekending pensioners. Buses from all over were parked along the side streets, every hotel I called at was full, and in every dining room I could see crowds — veritable oceans — of nodding white heads spooning soup and conversing happily. Goodness knows what had brought them to the Welsh seaside at this bleak time of year.

Farther on along the front there stood clutch of guesthouses, large and virtually indistinguishable, and a few Of them had vacancy signs in their windows. I had eight or ten to choose from, which always puts me in mild fret because I have an unerring instinct for choosing badly. My wife can survey a row of guesthouses and instantly identify the one run by a white-haired widow with a fondness for children, and sparkling bathroom facilities, whereas I can generally count on choosing the one run by a guy with a grasping manner, and the sort of cough that makes you wonder where he puts the phlegm. Such, I felt, would be the ease tonight.


All the guesthouses had boards out front listing their many amenities — COLOUR TV, HOSPITALITY TRAYS. FULL CENTRAL HEATING, and the coyly euphemistic EN SUITE ROOMS, meaning private bathrooms. One place offered satellite TV and a trouser press, and another boasted CURRENT FIRE CERTIFICATE — something I had never thought to 100k for in a B&B. All this heightened my sense Of unease and doom. How could I possibly choose intelligently among such variety of options?

I selected a place that looked reasonable enough from the outside — its board promised a color TV and cottee making facilities, about all I require these days for a Saturday night — but from the moment I set foot in the door I knew it wag u bud choice. I was about to turn and flee when the owner emerged from a back room and stopped my retreat with an unenthusiastic "Yes?" A short conversation revealed that a single room with breakfast wag for £19.50. It was entirely out of the question that I would stay the night in such a dismal place at such an exorbitant prioe, so I said, "That sounds fine," and signed in. Well, it's so hard to say no.

My room was everything I expected it to be — cold and cheerless with larninated furniture, grubbily matted carpet, and those mysterious ceiling stains that bring to mind a neglected corpse in the room above. There was u tray of coffee things but the cups were disgusting, and the spoon was stuck to the tray.

The bathroom, faintly illuminated by a distant light activated by a length of string, had curling floor tiles and years of accumulated dirt packed into every corner. I peered at the yellowy tile around the bath and sink and realized what the landlord did with his phlegm. A bath was out of the question, so threw some cold water on my face, dried it with n towel that had the texture of shredded wheat, and gladly took my leave.

Llandudno is described as a 1) fashionable 19th century

2)    beautiful growing resort.

3)    place where Lewis Carroll lived.

4)    pluce famous for its comfortable hotels.

Orger:

The phrase  oceans" in paragraph 2 refers to

1)  hotel dining rooms.

2)  hotel guests wearing white hats.

3)  Old people dining in

4)  buses crowded with old Welsh people.

When choosing a guesthouse the narrator was worried because he

1)                wasn't goad at making the right choice.

2)               


could not find a, place run by a kind Old widow. 3) did not know what to look fož% 4) missed his wife for help.

The narrator thought that the choice of a guesthouse used to be easier because

1)    all hotels had a, private bathroom.

2)    there were fewer options on offer.

3)    there were fewer guest houseth they were all Of   i.ype@

16

Why did the narrator agree the room?

1)   He felt sorry for the landlord.

2)   He could not refuse the offer.

3)   IL was reallÿ cheap.

 There was a TV and a coffee maker.

Orgeyrt

Why wag the bath out Of the question?

1) The water was too cold. There was no hot water.

The bathtub was dirty..

There was no light.

What Is the narrator's attitude towards the room he stayed in?

1)                Surprised.

2)               


Indifferent.  Positive,  Critical.

"Well done, Amos!" Edward "Thank you ror going into all this I knew I could depend _ you. My wife will be happy as I am to know everything; it's been such a mystery all these years.

The mountains of Scotland (we call them the Highlands) are wild end beautiful part of Europe, A golden eagle flies over the mountains. A deer walks through the silence of the forest. Salmon and trout swim in the clean, pure water of the rivers. Some say that not only figh swim in the deep water of Loch Ness, Speak to the people living by the Loch. Each person has a story of the monster, and some have photographs.

B.      Tresco is a beautiful island with no cars, crowds or noise — just flowers, birds, long sandy beaches and the Tresco Abbey Garden, John and Wendy Pyatt welcome you to the Island Hotel, famous for delicious food, comfort and brilliant servuc:e. You will appreciate superb accommodation, free saunas and the indoor swimming pool.

The Camel and Wildlife Safari is a unique mixture of the traditional and modern. Kenya's countryside suits the Safari purposes exceptionally well. Tourists will have a chance to explore the bush country near Samburu, to travel on a camel back or to sleep out under the stars. Modern safari vehicles are always available for those who prefer comfort.

D.      Arrival can be the hardest part of a trip. It is late, you are road-weary, and everything is new und strange. You need an affordable place to sleep, something to eat and drink, and probably a way to get around. But in general, it's a wonderful trip, full of wonderful and unusual places. Whether it ig the first stop on trip or the fifth city visited, every traveller feels a little overwhelmed stepping onto new street in a new City.

E.       No zoo hus enough money to provide basic habitats or environments for All the species they keep. Moet animals are put in a totally artificial environment, isolated from everything they would meet in their natural habitat. Many will agree that this isolation is harmful to the most of zoo inhabitants, it can even amount to cruelty.

F.       A new London Zoo Project is a ten year project to secure the future for the Zoo and for many endangeTed animals. The plan has been devised by both animal and business experts to provide world-leading accommodation for all our animals, to more fully engage and inform people about conservation issues, to redesign certain aspects of Zoo layout.

G.      Leave-no-trace camping is an increasingly popular approach to travel in wilderness areas. As the term suggests, the goal is for the camper to leave as little impact as possible on the place he is visiting. One of its mottos is "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints." Its simplest and most fundamental rule is: pack it in, pack it out, but it goes beyond that.

OTBerr:

The last time I saw my rather was in Grand Central Station. I was going from my grandmother's in the Adirondacks to a cottage on the Cape that my mother had rented, and I wrote my father that I would be in New York between trains for an

hour and a half, and asked if we could have lunch together. His secretary wrote to say that he would meet me at the information booth noon, and at twelve o'clock sharp I saw him coming through the crowd.

He was a stranger to me — my mother divorced him three years ago and I hadn't been with him since — but as soon as I saw him I felt that he was my father, my flesh and blood, my future and my doom. I knew that when I was grown I would be something like him; I would have to plan my campaigns within his limitations. He was a big, good-looking man, and I was terribly happy to see him again,

He struck me on the back and shook my hand. "Hi, Charlie," he said. "Hi, boy. I'd like to take you up to my club, but it's in the Sixties, and if you have to catch an early train I guess we'd better get something to eat around here." He put his arm around me, and I smelled my father the way my mother sniffs a rose. It was a riCh compound of whiskey, after-shave lotion, shoe polish, woollens, and the rankness of a mature male. I hoped that someone would see us together. I wished that we could be photographed. I wanted some record of our having been together.

We went out of the station and up a side street to a restaurant. It was still early, and the place was empty• The bartender was quarrelling with a delivery boy, and there was one very Old waiter in a red down by the kitchen door. We sat downt and my father hailed the waiter in a loud voice. "Kellnert" he shouted. "Garcon! You]" His boisterousness in the empty restaurant seemed out of place. "Could we have a little service here!" he shouted. Then he clapped his hands. This caught the waiter's attention, and he shuffled over to our table.


"Were you clapping your hands at me?" he asked.

"Calm down, calm down," my father said. "It isn't too much to ask of you — if it wouldn't be too much above and beyond the call of duty, we would like a couple of Beefeater Gibsons."

"I don't like to be clapped at," the waiter said.

"I should have brought my whistle," my father said. have a whistle that is audible only to the ears of old waiters. Now, take out your little pad and your little pencil and see if you can get this straight: two Beefeater Gibsons. Repeat after met two Beefeater Gibsons."

"I think you'd better go somewhere else," the waiter said quietly.

"That," said my father, "is one of the most brilliant suggestions I have ever heard. Come on, Charlie."

I followed my father out of that restaurant into another. He was not so boisterous this time. Our drinks came, und he cross-questioned me about the baseball season. He then struck the edge of his empty glass with his knife and began shouting again. "Garcon! You! Could we trouble you to bring us two more of the saxne." "How old is the boy?" the waiter asked.

"That," my father said, "is none of your business."

"I'm sorry, sir," the waiter said, "but I won't serve the boy another drink."

"Well, I have some news for you," my father said. "I have some very interesting news for you. This doesn't happen to be the only restaurant in New York, They've opened another on the corner. Come on, Charlie."

He paid the bill, and I followed him out of that restaurant into another

The geometrical centre of Europe lies in eastern Lithuania 25krn north of its capital Vilnius. The landscape varies between lowland plains and hilly uplands end has a complex network of rivers.

B.      Lithuania has historically been the least developed of the Baltic republics, with a smaller industrial base and greater dependence on agriculture. Sugar beet, cereals, potatoes and vegetables are the main crops. Lithuania's foreign trade has gradually changed during the 1990s, and now the European Union, not Russia, is its main trading partner,

C.      Lithuanian is the mother tongue tor 80% of the population. After the country joined the European Union in 2004 this language has become one of the EU official languages. Lithuania has a large number of dialects for a small territory; including High Lithuanian and Low Lithuanian.

D.      Lithuania offers different opportunities for a nice vacation. You can explore a range of large sand dunes and pine forests while hiking in the Curonian Spit National Park, take part in some action sports in Nida, village that makes a true paradise for sailing, windsurfing, paragliding and kiting, or try out morg extreme such as hot-alr ballooning and gliding.

The Mardi Gras celebrations are held in various Lithuanian cities and small towns at the beginning of February. The Folklore Festival is held in Vilnius' Old Town during in May. There you can see craft fairs, taste traditional dishes, join song and parties and listen to psalms.

I arrived at the Cloud forest in Ecuador ten days ago. I was one of a group of twelve volunteers that wanted to save the rainforest. My reasons for going on this trip were twofold: firstly, I wanted to collect and bring back alive some of the fascinating animals, birds and reptiles that inhabit this region; secondly, I had long


cherished a dream to see South America: not, the inhabited South America with its macadam roads, its cocktail bars, its express trains roaring through a landscape denuded of its flora und fauna by the beneficial influences of civilization, I wanted to see one Of those few remaining parts Ot the continent that had escaped this fate and remained more or lcss as it WAS when America first discoveredt I wanted see its rainforests, its vast lands Of untouched, pure, natural wildlife. We were working together with local people and scientists and we were learning and seeing new things every day. Our lodge was comfortable, had breathtaking views and was Iin the middle of the rainforest. It was a. two-hour from the nearest road, and it was even further to the nearest village.

The rainforest is truly an astonishing place. There are thousands of species af plants here and more than 700 species ot There are millions of insects and scientists think there may be around forty mammal species that. haven't even discovered. But whet I was really amazed at how ever'ßhing depends on everything else for survival,

Every tree in the rainforest is covered in a species at another kind. The black wasp uses the tarantula nest, for its eggs, plants need monkeys far seed dispersal, and the clouds are necessary for the survival of the whole rainforest. This is because they provide moisture. The problem is, climate change is causing the clouds to rise by 1—-2 meters every year, What will happen to the plents that need this moisture? What will happen to the animals that need those plants?


Our job was ta watch this changing ecosystem. One of my fuvourite projects was the bird survey, Every day a group of us sot out around five o'clock with u. local scientist, At this time of the morning the air was filled with the sound of bird song. We had to identify the birds we hear and see and write down aur findings. Laterl we entered all our information into a computer at the lodge.

We also set up cameras to record pumas, spectacled bears and other large mammals. It was always exciting to see pumas because it meant there were other animals around that they would normally hunt. We fixed the cameras to trees around the reserve, and every day a team or volunteers collected the cameras memory cardth

There was a lat to do in the rainforest, but at least I felt like we were making a difference,

Ilowever, soon started collecting some animals and insects. I realized that as soon us the hunting got under way and the collection increased, most of my time would be taken up in looking after the animals, and I should not be able to wander far from camp, So was eager to get into the forest white I had the chance.

Nevertheless, I should mention the fact that without the help of the natives you would stand little chance of catching the animals you want, for they know the forest, having been barn in it. Once the animal is caught, however, it is your job to keep it alive and well. If you left this part or it to the natives you would get precious little buck alive.

'Which reason for the trip to the rainforest was NOT mentioned?

l) Dream Of visiting South America, 2) Gathering a collection„  Thirst for adventures.

4) Saving rainforests,

A. Norway is first of all a land for those who love nature. The breathtaking fjords in the southwest of the country and Europe's largest glacier are Norway's most attractive places, but there are many other reasons to visit this country in the north of Europe. There are wonderful opportunities to enjoy skiing, fishing and rock-climbing. Others can take pleasure in the charm of the Norwegian countryside, with its countless valleys, high mountain lakes and unbelievable views.


 Many tourists corning to Norway in the summer prefer to stay in a cottage used by northern Norwegian fishermen during the winter cod-fishing season. Equipped with all the necessary facilities, these cottages are leased to holidaymakers, providing an attractive form of accommodation. They will often be actually over the water. Catching your own fish und conking it on the fire will add a few pleasant moments to your holiday.

C.     Norway has a long history of fishing, although much of the high quality shellfish and other species caught off the coast are exported. However, fish remains a common dish, along with meat, potatoes and other root vegetables, although tastes have changed in recent years to involve wider international choice. including pizzas and burgers. The most popular traditional hot snack is a form of sausage, sold at numerous outlets.

D.     Traditionally entertainment in the country is largely home-based, but thig has been changing in recent years. Most Norwegians tend to go out only on Fridays and Saturdays, the rest of the week being fairly quiet. This is in no small part due to the high prices of food and drink, and the fact that the working day starts eurly. And at weekends, it is normal for the Norwegians to enjoy drinks at home before leaving it late as, 11.00 p.m.

E.      Restaurants tend to be concentrated in city centres, while in recent years the pub culture has been gradually arriving in Norway. Cities are nowadays well supplied with a wide choice of bars, many of which offer food that has a lower price compared to the restaurants. Most villages of any size have at least one cafe or restaurant where it is possible to drink and eat out.

 Norwegians are generally sincere and polite, though communication doesn't often come easy — it is usually up to you to brenk the ice and establish contact. They can be very direct and rarely say •please', which may seem rude, but it's due to the fact that the Norwegian language rarely uses the word. On the other hand, they say •thank you' for almost everything. They also tend to address people by their first name even on many formal occasions.

G. Norway is expensive country. Ag labour is costly here, anything that can be seen as a 'service' will generally be more expensive than you expect. Transport costs can also be a killer, because the country is large and distances are But there is One good point: Norwey has high quality of tap water@ so buying bottled drinking water is usually unnecessary and this will save your budget.

Laughing and evolution

The first hoots of laughter from an ancient ancestor or humans could be heard at least 10 million years ago, according to the results of a new study,

Researchers used           recordings Of apes and babies being tickled  to the last common ancestor that humans shared with the modern great apes, which include chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans.

The finding challenges the opinion B, suggesting instead that it emerged long before humans split from the evolutionary path that led to our primate cousins, between 10m and 16m years

"In humans, laughing can be the strongest way of expressing how much we are enjoying ourselves, but it can also be used i n other contexts, like making fun of someone," said Marina Davila a psychologist at Portsmouth University, "I was interested in C

Scarcely had we settled into Reution the Strawberry-pink Villa before my mother decided that I was running wild, and that it was necessary for me to have some sort of education. As usual when a problem arose, the entire family flung itself with enthusiasm into the task of solving it. Each member had his or her own idea of what was best far me.

Sitting under the open window in the twilight, I had listened with interest, not unmixed with indignation, to the family discussion of my fate. Finally my mother decided that George would be good teacher for me. Now it was settled, I wondered vaguely who George was, and why it was so necessary for me to have lessons. But the dusk was thick with flower-scents, and the olive-groves were dark, mysterious, and fascinating. I forgot about the imminent danger of being educated, and went off with Roger to hunt for glow-worms in the sprawling brambles.

Later I discovered that George was my brother's friend and he had come to Corfu Lo write. There was nothing very unusual about this, for all Larry's acquaintances in those days were either authors, poets, or painters.


My new teacher came over to the villa to discuss my education with Mother, and we were introduced. We regarded each other with suspicion. George was a very tall and extremely thin man with a brown beard and a pair of large spectacles. He had deep, melancholy voice, a dry and sarcastic sense of humor. However, he was not upset by the fact that there were no school•books available on the island; he simply looked through his own library und appeared on the appointed day armed with his own selection of books. He patiently taught me Geography from the maps in the hack of an ancient copy of Pears Encyclopedia, English from books that ranged from Wilde to Gibbon, French from the book called "Le Petit Larousse", and mathematics ffom memory. From my point of view the most important thing was that we devoted some of our time to naturál history, and George carefully taught me how to observe and how to note down observations in a diary. At once my enthusiastic interest in nature became focused, tor I found that by writing things down I could learn and remember much more. The only morning that I wag ever on time for my lessons were those which were given up to natural history,

Every morning At nine George would come into the little dining-room of the villa, sit at the table methodically arranging the books. He would droop over the exercisebook pensively, pulling at his beard. Then in his large, clear writing he would set the task for me solve.

"If it took two caterpillars a week to eat eight leaves, how long would four caterpillars take to eat the same number? Now, apply yourself to that".

While I was struggling with the apparently insoluble problem 01 the caterpillar appetites, George was practicing some dancing moves in the hall as at that time he was engaged in learning some of the local dances, for which he had a passion. Through all this I would be watching him, fageinated, the exercise-book lying forgotten in front of me. Mathematics was not one of our successful subjects.

In geogruphy we mude better progress, ror George was able to give a more zoologicål tinge to the lesson. We drew giant maps and then filled in the various places of interest, together with drawings or the most exciting animals and birds to be found there.

2)     led an uncontrolled life.

3)     became very angry.

4)     had an unhealthy lifestyle.

How did the "boy's family react to the problem of his education?

1)  Actively discussed the situation.

2)  Avoided any disputes on thig topic, 3) Showed no desire in solving it. 4) Felt indifferent.

George was I) a teacher.

2)    a dancer.

3)    a writer.

4)    a mathematician.

Orgem:

How did the boy and George feel when they first met?

1)   They treated the situation with humor.

2)   They were upset about their studies.

3)   They didn't trust each other.

4)   They liked each other very much.

Why did the boy enjoy his lessons of natural history?

1)    He remembered much more from those lessons.

2)    He got very interested in the subject.

3)    He learned how to focus an the lesson. 4) He finally learnt how to write.

The boy couldn't sólve the mathematics problem because he

l) didn't like to make any effort. 2) was not interested in caterpillars.

3) refused to do mathematics in general. was distracted by his teacher's dances.

The  leSSOns were t'tiOt•e successful because George knew geography better than mathematics 2) the boy was fand af drawing maps of the

Before Christmas

Vicky gave this party every year, just before Christmas. She _ to do it before the war and she was doing it now, when the war was over. It was always the same people who came. It struck her suddenly how clannish they all were, but then the Deravenels in particular were somewhat addicted to their family. Vicky knew that she could always depend _ her relatives in a crisis,

She was  the guests greet each other and share the news. Vicky thought of her sister-in-law Kathleen, not present tonight. Vicky missed her presence. When Will had arrived tonight, he had  that Kathleen was really sick. "But not Spanish flu," he had added swiftly, observing the look of apprehension crossing her face, *'just heavy cold."

Fenella's voice brought her out of her reverie, and she across at her old friend, who was saying, "How is Charlie feeling?"

"He's relieved he is safely home, but his wounds still hurt and he feels depressed..

She looked at Fenella as if [$]  advice.

"Mr. Ridgely made a remark to me the other day that he wished there was somewhere wounded soldiers could go, to have some sort of recreation, talk to other soldiers," said Fenella.


"That's an interesting idea" Vicky glanced at the others,  a brow.

"Don't you agree?"

"To  the truth, I do," Stephen answered, always ready to back his wife in her project. "l think such a place would be quite marvelous for the wounded men who ure now coming home." Fenella nodded.

Referee's perspective

 

A.       Good footballers have something in their genesv Scientists have discovered link between the length of a footballer½i ring finger and their ability as player. They compared the ring and index fingers of top players. Players whose ring fingers were longer compared to their index fingers were more likely to be elite players, Some of the players found to have long ring fingers ure Bryan Robson, Ossie Ardiles, Glenn Hoddle, Sir Stanley Matthews and

B.       Fitness training is absolutely necessary for a first-rate football team. Jogging up and down the stadium a few times is not enoughv What footballers really need is a quick start. Fr»tballers get this ability t" Start running very quickly by using a training method called •plyometrics', In the 1960s, athletes in the Soviet Union plyometric exercises to improve their results in jumping. Step by step, the method has become very important for many sports that include sprinting and jumping.

C.       In the past, footballers used to huve g. big tried breakfast or even a roast dinner — before a football match. In the new era of professional football, the menu of modern players has been radically reformed. Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, is known for his scientific method of feeding his team. When he first came to the club in 1996, he at once changed the players' dinner menus. Sugar, red meat, chips, fried Toads and dairy products were out. Vegetables, fish, chicken and plenty of water were

       14B                                                                                                                    Era. TVIIIOBSIE SIOAMEHAUMOHHEIE BAPVIAHTEI

 French diet specialists heavily criticised the pre-match diet of the England players in Euro '96. Their menu of tomato soup and spaghetti was said to be more likely ta produce wind than a win. Potatoes, according to French scientists, make the best meal on the day of a game. They have glucides, which give the player a lot of energy. They also include useful vitamins. According to one piece of research, a player should eat 200—300 grams of mashed potatoes, boiled for 20 minutes, exactly three hours before going to the game.

E. Physics can explain a football wonder — •the banana kick. This happens when a ball suddenly changes its direction at the end of its flight. At a certain speed, the air flowing over a flying ball becomes 'turbulent', This means that the gir moves irregularly over the ball. As the ball slows down, the air becomes 'smooth' again. This slowdown makes the ball turn dramatically, creating the wonderful 'banana' kicks that the spectators like so much.

 These days, footballs are made in a design based on the 'Buckminster Ball'. The American architect Richard Buckminster Fuller came up with the design when he was trying to find u way for constructing buildings using a minimum of materials. The ball is a series of geometrical figures, which can he fitted together to make a round body. The modern football is in tact a Buckminster Rall consisting of 32 pieces. When they are joined together and filled with air they make a perfect sphere.

 Research has shown that watching the World Cup is good for our health — even if your team goes out on penalties. The scientigtg suggest that a common interest and a nationalistic pride are very important. The competition makes people legs concentrated on their own problems. They are also more patient and can cope with crises much easier. Watching football can, however, also be disappointmg, especially when it comes Lo the decisions of referees and officials. Besides, watching penalties can be very nervous.

Nenets culture affected by global warming

For 1,000 years the indigenous Nenets people have migrated along the 450-milelong Yamal peninsula in northern Ruggia. In summer they wander northwards, taking their reindeer with them. In winter they return southwards,

But this remote region or north-west Siberia is now being affected by global warming. Traditionally the Nenets travel across the froezen River 0b in November  around Nadym. These days, though, this annual winter migration is delayed. Last year the Nenets, together with many thousands of reindeer, had to wait until late December B

"Our reindeer were hungry. There wasn't enough food," Jakov Japtik, a Nenets reindeer herder, said. "The snow is melting sooner, quicker and faster than before. In spring it's difficult for the reindeer to pull the sledges. They get tired, Þ Japtik said.

Herders say that the peninsula's weather is increasingly unpredictable — with unseasonal snowstorms C , and milder longer autumns. In winter, temperatures used go down to •50'C. Now they are normally around •3ŒC, according Lo Japtik. "Obviously we prefer •30'C. But the changes aren't good for the reindeer D," he said, setting off on his sledge to round up his reindeer herd.

Even here, in one of the most remote parts of the planet, E

Last year the Nenet.s arrived at regular summer camping spot and discovered that half Of their lake had disappeared. The water had drained away after  landslide. The Nenets report other curious changes — there are fewer mosquitoes and a strange increase in flies. Scientists say there is unmistakable evidence

1.    when the ice was finally thick enough to cross

2.    that the impact on Russia would be disastrous

3.    the environment is under pressure

4.    and in the end what is good for the reindeer is good for us and set up their camps in the southern forests

6.    that Yamal's ancient permafrost is melting

7.    when the reindeer give birth in May

Hazlitt's Hotel

I took a cab to Hazlitt's Hotel on Frith Street. I like  because it's intentionally obscure — it doesn't have a sign or a plaque or anything at All to betray its purpose — which puts you in a rare position Of strength with your cab driver' Let me say right now that London cab drivers are without question the finest in the world. They are trustworthy, safe and honest, generally friendly and always polite. They keep their vehicles spotless inside and out, and they will put themselves to the most extraordinary inconvenience to drop you at the front entrance of your destination. There Are really only a couple of odd things about them. One is that they cannot drive more than two hundred feet in a straight line. I've never understood this, but no matter where you are or what the driving conditions, every two hundred feet a little bell goes off in their heads and they abruptly lunge down u side street. And when you get to your hotel or railway station or wherever it is you are going, they like to drive you all the way around it so that you can see it from all angles before alighting.

The other distinctive thing about them. and the reason I like to go to Hazlitt's, is that they cannot bear to admit that they don't know the location of something they feel they ought to know, like a hotel, which I think is rather sweet. To become a London cab driver you have Lo master something titled The Knowledge — in effect,

ZilS

learn every street, hospital, hotel, police station, cricket ground, cemetery and ather notable landmarks in this amazingly vast and confusing cit3i% It takes years and the cabbies are justifiably proud ot their achievement. It would kill them to admit that there could exist in central London a hotel they have never heard of. So what the cabbie does is probe. HC drives in no particular direction for block Or two, then glances at you in the mirror and in .arl. overcasual voice says, "Hazlitt's — that's the one on Curzon Street, innit, guvl' Opposite the Blue Lion?" But the instant he sees a knowing smile of demurral forming an your lips, he hastily says, "No, bang on a minute, I'm thinking of the Hazelbury. Yeah, the Elazelbury. You want Hazlitt's, right?" He'll drive on a bit in a fairly random direction. "That's this side of Shepherd's Bush, innit,?" he'll suggest speculatively.

When you tell him that it's on Frith Street, he          "Yeah, that the one, Course it is. I know it — modern place, lots of glass".

"Actually, iVs an eighteenth-century brick building."

*'Course it I know it." And he immediately executes a dramatic U-turn, causing a passing cyclist to steer into a lamppost (but that's all right because he hag on cycle clips and one of those geeky slip stream helmets that all but invite you to knock him over). "Yeah, you had me thinking of the Hazelbury" the driver adds, chuckling as if to say it's a lucky thing be sorted that one out for you, and then lunges down a little side street off the Strand called Running Sore Lane or Sphincter Passage, which, like so much else in London, you had never noticed was there before.

Music lessons

It was a hard winter for Mothet% She sometimes pleaded with Father but no one could ever tell Father anything. He continued to stand like a. rock against stopping my music lessons.

To _ the truth, Father had certain natural gifts for debate. in the first place his voice was powerful and stormy, and he  to let it out at full strength. As a second gift, he was convinced at all times that his opponents were wrong. Hence, even if they won point or two, it _ them no good, for he dragged the issue io some other ground then, where he end Truth could prevail. When Mother said it surely was plain enough that I had no ear for music, what wag his reply? Why, he -aid that the violin was the noblest instrument  by man.

Father was outraged. His final argument, I remember, was that my violin had cost twenty-five dollars, if I didn't learn it, the money would be wasted, and he couldn't afford it. But it put to him that my er brother Julian could learn it instead.

Father was defeated, though he didn't it, and I was set free,

A. By now Wimbledon has become a popular national festival, together with Ascot and the Cup Final. Many people in Britain don't know that tennis was first played in Wales. It was there, in 1873, that Major Walter Wingfield played u game with the recently invented rubber balls and enjoyed it so much, that he decided to develop the standards of the game. He published the first book of tennis rules later that year. The first Wimbledon championship was held a few years later in 1877 and the British Lawn Tennis Association formed in 1888.


Good mental preparation is necessary for professional tennis players. In A long match they can he on the court for geverúl hours with nobody to talk to. There can be hundreds of stops from the crowd, their opponent and, especially at Wimbledon, the rain. Players need to practice methods for improving their concentration and for motivating themselves when the game is going against them. They are often taught Lo imagine some situations, such as a tense tie-break, Then they imagine what to do with it.

Many players find it impossible to stay calm in the stressful situation of a long tennis match and let their temper out. John McEnroe was famous for his quarrels with referees. Several players have been given warnings for throwing the racket or swearing, Some players lose matches they could easily win because their mind lets them down. Pat Rafter said that he couldn't breathe in his 2000 Wimbledon final. The stress of being near the victory can be too much for a person.

D.      The power of today's tennis game is only partly created by the athletes themselves. Much of it comes from their rackets. New designs mean players can hit the ball with more speed and accuracy than ever before. It started in the 1970s when the traditional wooden racket was replaced with metal, Since then different materials have been used. Graphite has made the biggest influence. Now the graphite can be mixed with materials such as end titanium to produce even stronger, and lighter, ruckets.

E.       Speed isn't Always good thing. Many fans are complaining that the speed of the game is making tennis boring to watch. After two years of testing, a new ball has now been invented which could slow down tennis and make it more exciting to watch. The ball is put together in exactly the same way as the one used now, but is 6% larger in diameter. The bigger ball gives the receiver 100/0 more reaction time in which to return the So the number of aces serves in a match that the receiver fails to return — will be far fewer.

 When Irishman Jóhn Boland travelled to Athens for the first modern Olympic Games in 1896, he had no idea he would return home with the gold medal in tennis. But then, he had no idea he would compete either — he went to watch the competion. In comparison, today's Olympic tennis players include some Of the best

BAPMAHT

athletes in the world. They are used to five-star hotels and hundreds of thousands of dollars, but at the Olympic Games they will stay in the Olympic Village and compete for nothing but a gold medal.

G. The Wimbledon tennis tournament is famous for pigeons that sometimes oome flying on to Centre Court and stop the game. So, producers of a video tennis game designed for PlayStation2 decided to use specially trained homing pigeons, decorated with the game's logo. Twenty birds will be spray-painted with the Virtual Tennis 2 logo and trained to fly in and out of the home of British tennis during the matches of the Wimbledon championship. The advertising pigeons will go straight for the fans and show their logos to them.

Duration of life and its social implications

The world's population is about to reach u landmark of huge social and economic importance, when the proportion of the global population over 65 outnumbers children under 5 for the first time.

Separate UN forecasts predict that the global population will be more than nine billion by 2050.

The US census bureau was the first to sound the CIts latest forecasts warn governments and international bodies that this change in population structure will bring widespread challenges at every level of human organization, starting with the structure of the family, which will be transformed as people live longer. This will in turn place new burdens on careers and social services providers, D  for health services and pensions systems.

Lily and I had planned a movie marathon weekend. I was exhausted from work and she was stressed out from her classes, so we'd promised to spend the whole weekend parked on her couch and subsist solely on pizza and crisps. No healthy food. No diet Coke. And absolutely no strict, official clothes. Even though we talked all the time, we hadn't spent any real time together since I'd moved to the city.


We'd been friends since the eighth grade, when I first saw Lily crying alone at a cafeteria table. She'd just moved in with her grandmother und started at our school in Avon, after it became clear that her parents weren't coming home any time soon. The day I found her crying alone in the cafeteria was the day her grandmother had forced her Oto chop Off her dirty dreadlocks and wear a dress, and Lily was not very happy about it. Something about the way she talked, the way she said, 'That's so nice of you," and "Let's just forget about it", charmed me, and we immediately became friends. We'd been inseparable through the rest of high school, and lived in the same room for all four years at Brown College. Lily hadn't yet decided whether she preferred girlish dresses or rough leather jackets, but we complemented each other well. And I missed her. Because with her first year as a graduate student and my exhausting work, we hadn't seen a whole lot of euch other lately.

Lily was studying for her Ph.D. in Russian Literature at Columbia University and working odd jobs every free second she wasn't studying. Her grandmother barely had enough money to support herself, and Lily had to pay for the studies on her own. However, she seemed to be fond of such a way of life. She loved Russian culture ever since her eighth-grade teacher told her that Lily looked how he had always pictured Lolita, with her round face and curly black hair. She went directly home and read Nabokov's "Lolita", and then read everything else Nabokov wrote. And Tolstoy. And Gogol. And Chekhov. By the time we finished school, she was applying to Brown College to work with a specific professor who hud a degree in Russian Literature. On interviewing a seventeen-year-old Lily the professor declared her one of the most wellread and passionate students of Russian literature he'd ever She still loved it, still studied Russian grammar and could read anything in its original.

I couldn't wait for the weekend. My fourteen•hour workdays were registering in my feet, my upper arms, and my lower back. Glasses had replaced the contacts I'd worn for a decade because my eyes were too dry and tired to accept them anymore. I'd begun losing weight already as I never had time to eat properly, although I wag drinking an enormous amount of coffee. I'd already weathered a flue infection and

had paled significantly, and it had been only four weeks. I was only twenty-three years Old. And my boss hadn't even been in the office I knew I deserved a weekend.

Saturday afternoon found us particularly motivated, and we managed to saunter round the city center for a few hours. We each bought some new clothes for the upcoming New Year's party and had a mug of hot chocolate from a sidewalk café. By the time we made it back to her apartment, we were exhausted and happy and spent the rest Of the night watching old movies and eating pizza.

                            What did the girls hope to do that weekend?

I) Talk all the weekend.

2)    Have some more studies that weekend.

Why did the girl become friends with Lily?

1)  She liked Lily's dress.

2)  She became fascinated with her.

Margaret

Old Margaret was just the kind of cook that -we Lots of cooks can do rich dishes well. Margaret couldn't. But ghe  to cook simpleï everyday dishes in a way that made our mouths Her apple•pies were the best pies I've ever tasted.

But to [69] the truth, even Margaret sometimes miscalculated. A large, royal-looking Steak would be set before Father, which, upon being cut into, would turn  to be underdone. Father's face would darken with disappointment. He would raise his foot and stamp slowly and heavily three times on the rug.

At this solemn  , we would hear Margaret leave the kitchen below us und come up the stairs to the dining-room door.

"Margaret, look at the steak."

Margaret would peer with a shocked look at the platter. She would then seize the platter and make off with it.

Father and Margaret were •united by the intense interest they both took in cooking. Each understood the other instinctively. I have to _l_ that they had a complete fellow-feeling. Mother's great interest was in babies. She loved her children and her happiness depended _ them. She wanted to keep Father pleased somehow. and if it wag too difficult or impossible she didn't always care about even that.


At table it was Father who carved the fowl, or sliced the roast lamb or beef. I liked ta [$] _ him take the knife and go at it. And usually the cooking had been as superb as the carving. Sometimes it was so perfect that Father would summon Margaret and guy in a low voice, *'You are a good cook".

A. The world's first public passenger railway was built in Great Britain in 1826 and ran between the industrial north-eastern towns af Stockton and Darlington. After 180 years' experience the British say that their trains still don't seem to run efficiently or even safely. On average, about 500 accidents with broken rail tracks happen in the country every year.


The British government is promising to give £33@5 billion to modernise the railways before 2010. Another £30 billion is to come Trom the private The main target is to increase safety and speed. For  new London-to-Scotland high-speed truing significantly reduce journey times and in 2004 a warning system was installed throughout the country.

C. Statistics show that only 12% of all journeys made in Britain are by public transport. The remaining 88% are mude by car. Every year British people spend about two weeks travelling to and from work including nine days in their own ears. But anyone will say this isn't a quick and easy way to travel. In tact, a journey from London to Manchester frequently takes seven hours. A cyclist could get there quicker.

Every year there are about half a million traffic jams in Britain. That is nearly 10,000 a week. There are hundreds of big traffic jams every day. According to the forecast, the number of jams will grow by 20 per cent over the next ten years, Nearly a quarter British people find themselves in a jam every day and 55 per cent at least once weelo

 Nowadays many British people take their children to schaal by ear. Twenty years ago, nearly one in three primary school children made their own way to school, Now only one child in nine makes their own way. During the school year at 08}50 one ear in five on the roads in any British town is taking children to school. The solution could be special school buses widely used in the USA.

 Many scientists hope that new technologies ullowing more people to work at home may help with traffic Fewer people will work from 9 to 5 and travel to and from work during the hour. But only 15% of people now want to spend more time working at horne- The workplace is, for many people, a place to meet other people and to talk to them, so they would miss it if they worked home.

G. In 1903, the Wright brothers made the first aeroplane flight. It only lasted 12 seconds but changed the world forever, A century later, air travel is no longer a miracle, it is part of everyday life. One billion air passangerg now fly every year — that's equivalent to a sixth of the world's population. To make sure everything rung smoothly, there are special air traffic control in each country which watch every aeroplane.

Elephants sense 'danger' clothes

St Andrews University researchers discovered that elephants could recognise the degree of danger posed by various groups of individuals.

The study found that African elephants always reacted with fear  previously worn by men of the Mausai tribe. They are known to demonstrate their courage by B

The elephants also responded aggressively red clothing, which defines traditional Maasni dress.


However, the elephants showed a much milder reaction to clothing previously worn by the Katnba people, Cand pose little threat.

The researchers first presented elephants with clean, red clothing and with red clothing that had been worn for five dayg by D

They revealed that Maasai-smelt clothing motivated elephants to travel significantly faster in the first minute after they moved away.

Cry-baby

It was almost midnight before they got around to giving the Oscars to the really well-known personalities. At first series of guest stars had awarded the prizes: to the best designer, to the best special-effects man, for the best technical invention for motion pictures during the year, and to all the other people, so unknown outside the industry, but so significant within it.

I looked around the theatre, recognizing most Of the weighty faces in the business, but not caring much. You see, I was pretty nervous. Myra Caldwell, whom had brought to the ceremony, was sitting there beside me, and right across the aisle wus Joan Weyland. Now, to get the picture properly, you have to remember tbHt during that particular year Myra had played the sensational supporting role in The Devil Loges and had been called the greatest find in the history of pictures. But that was the same year that Joan Weyland had stolen a big picture called Calumet Centre right out from under the nose of one of the most famous female stars in the industry. The only other actress nominated was not given much chance. Now in a, few minutes, they were going to announce who had won the Oscar for the Best Supporting Actress of the year. It was the hottest Contest and everybody was aware of it. Furthermore, it was no secret that the two leading contestants would be delighted to boil each other in oil — win, lose, or draw. And here they were across the aisle from each other. Do you get why I was nervous?


Then the lights went down. They were going to run short scenes from the pictures for which the actors and actresses had been nominated. The supporting-actress pictures were coming on, and here was Joan Weyland in her grand scene from Calumet Centre. The audience started to applaud as soon as they saw her.

After that they ran a short episode from Whirlwind, showing the other nominee, a refugee actress called Tanya Braden. I had never seen the picture of the actress, and the picture hadn't made much money, but there was no doubt she could act! She played the star's mother and she made you believe it.

Then they ran Myra's big moment in The Devil Loses. After it was over, I tried to guess who had the biggest chance.

"I think I won," Myra said to me.

The lights went up. The old actor, who had won the Supporting Actor award the year before, came through the curtains and prepared to present the award. I didn't see how I was going to live through the next few minutes. He got the envelope and began opening it very slowly.

He wag laving every second of it, the old man. Then he looked at the little piece Of paper.

"The Winner," he said, then paused again, "is Miss Tanya Braden, for her performance in Whirlwind."

Well, I'm not too sure about the sequence of events that followed. I don't remember the applause, because Joan let out a loud cry from across the aisle that drowned out everything else. Then Myra started to cry. I don't mean cry like the ordinary person, but I mean cry so that the building shook.

Then Joan jumped to her feet and started out, and her mother accompanied her. But I couldn't do anything with Myra. The show was interrupted and the whole theatre was staring at her. I picked her up and carried her out.

aAFVIAHT

It wasn't a very pleasant performance, but I think there is some excuse. After all Joan is 8 years old, and Myra is only 6, and she isn't used to being up so late. I'm a little on her side anyway. And why not? I'm her father;

At the beginning of the Oscar ceremony prizes were awarded

                l) to the most famous stars among          Winners.

2)              to the best director.

3)              for the best film.

2) had been nominated as two of the Best Supporting Actresses of the year. 3) wanted to see the well-known personalities of the film industry. accompanied the nominees.

2)           film in which a famous actor starred.

A. For 150 years America was a British colony. At that time British and American English were almost exactly the same. When America won the War of Independence in 1176, it became a free country. The USA was quickly growmg richer, and millions of Europeans came to settle here. They brought new words and expressions to the language. As a result, English in America began to develop in its own way and today, there are certain differences in pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary and spelling between American and British English.


Typical American teenagers are in fact very ordinary. They think their teachers make them work too hard, they love their parents but are sure they don't understand anything, and their friendships are the most important things in their lives. Some of them do have a lot of money to spend, but usually they have earned it themselves. Most young people take jobs while they are in school. They work at movie theatres, fast-food restaurants, gus stations, and stores pay for their clothes and entertainment. Maybe this is what makes them so independent from their parents at such a young age?

C.       Is it possible to have one device with the functions of TV-set, PC and the Internet? With the advent of Internet TV it has become a reality. Imagine watching a film on TV and getting information on the actors in the film at the same time: To enter web-addresses and write e-mails you use u remote control and an on-screen keyboard or an optional wireless keyboard. By clicking a button, you can also read adverts, 'chat' with a friend, plan your holiday and play your favourite video games. And in the future you'll be able to change the plot of the film you are watching!

D.       When do you stop being a child and become an adult? There are lots of laws about the age when you can start doing things. In Britain, for ex•atnplet you can get married at 16, but you cannot get a tattoo until you are 18. In most American states you eun have a driving licence at 17, but you cannot drink until you are 21. In Russia you can be put in prison when you are 16, but you cannot vote until you are 18. In fact, most European countries and the US have the game age for voting: 18. Many people, however, think that this is unfair. They would like to vote at an earlier age.

E.        Blue jeans were a byproduct of the Gold Rush. The man who invented jeans, Levi Strauss, emigrated from Germany to San Pruneiseo in 1850. Levi was 20 years old, und he decided to sell clothes to the miners who were in California in search of gold. When he was told that durable trousers were the most needed item of clothing, Levi began making jeans of heavy tent eunvag. Levi's jeans were an immediate Soon he switched from canvas to n cotton fabric which came from Mmes, a city in France. The miners called it 'denim' and bought a lot of trousers from Strauss.

F.        Some fifty years ago people hadn't even heard of computers, and today we cannot imagine our life without them. Computer technology is now the fastest-growing industry in the world. The first computer was the size of a minibus and weighed a ton. Today, its job can be done by a chip the size of pinhead. And the revolution is still going on. Very soon we'll have computers that we'll wear on our wrists or even in our glasses and car-rings. Such wearable computers are now being developed in the USA.

Some American words are simply unknown on the other side of the Atlantic, and vice versa. But a lot of words exist in both variants, and these can cause trouble. British visitors to America are often surprised at the different meanings that familiar words have acquired there. If an Englishman asks in an American store for a vest, he will be offered a waistcoat. Ii he wants to buy a handbag for his wife, he should ask for a purse, and if she wants to buy pair of tights, she should ask for pantyhose: tights in America are what ballet dancers wear.

A Gifted Cook

If there is a gene for cuisine, Gabe, my Il-year-old son, could splice it to perfection. Somewhere between Greenwich Village, where he was born, and the San Francisco Bay area, where he has grown up, the little kid with the stubborn disposition and freckles on his nose has forsaken Boy Scouts and baseball in favor of wielding a kitchen knife.


I suppose he is a member of the Emeril generation. Gabe has spent his formative years shopping ut the Berkeley Bowl, where over half a dozen varieties of Thanksgiving yams, in lesser mortals, can instill emotional paralysis. He is blessed with critical eye. "I think Emeril is really cheesy," he observed the other night while watching a puff pastry segmenth "He makes the stupidest jokes, But he cooks really well."

With its manifold indigenous cultures, Oaxaca seemed the perfect place to push boundaries. Like the mole sauces for which it is justly famous, the region itself is a subtle blend Of ingredients — from dusty Zapotec villages where Spanish is a second language to the zocalo in colonial Oaxaca, sophisticated town square brimming with street life and vendors selling twisty, one-story-tall balloons.

Appealing to Gabe's inner Iron Chef seemed like an indirect way to introduce him to u place where the artful approach to life presides. There wag also a selfish motive: Gabe is my soul mate, a fellow food wanderer who is not above embracing insanity to follow his appetite wherever it leads.

Months ahead of time, we enrolled via the Internet in the daylong Wednesday cooking class at Seasons of My Heart, the chef and cookbook author Susana Trilling's cooking school in the Elta Valley, about 45-minute drive north to town. In her cookbook and PBS series of the same name, Ms. Trilling, an American whose maternal grandparents were Mexican, calls Oaxaca "the land of no waste" where cooking techniques in gotne ancient villages have endured for a thousand years.

I suspected that the very notion of what constitutes food in Oaxaca would test Gabe's mettle. At the suggestion of Jacob, his older brother, we spent our second night in Mexico at a Oaxaca Guerrero baseball game, where instead of peanuts and Cracker Jack, vendors hawked huge trays piled high with chapulines, fried grasshoppers cooked in chili and lime, a local delicacy. Gube wag bug-eyed as he watched the man next to him snack on exoskeletal munchies in a paper bowl. "It's probably less grogs than a hot dog," he admitted, "But on the rim or the bowl I saw a bunch of legs and served body parts. That's revolting!"

Our cooking day began at the Wednesday market in Etla, shopping for ingredients and sampling as we On the way in the Gabe had made friends with Cindy and Fred Beams, fellow classmates from Bostonl sharing opinions about Caesar salad and bemoaning his brother's preference for plain pizza instead of Hawaiiaru Cindy told Gabe about a. delicious sauce she'd just had on her omelet at her B & B. "It was the best sauce — to die for," she said. "Then I found out the provenance, Roasted

The Oaxacan taste for insects, we'd learn      including the worm salt spied at the supermarket and the "basket of fried locusts" at a nearby restaurant — was source of protein dating back to pre-Hispanic times.

When our cooking class was over I saw a flicker of regret in his face, as though he sensed the world's infinite variety and possibilities in all the dishes he didn't learn to cook. "Mom", he said plaintively, surveying the sensual offerings af the table„ "Can we make everything when we get home?" mother thinks that he is

1)  lazy.       3) selfish.

2)  determined@          thoughtful.

OTBe•rt

Gabe is supposed to represent the Emeril generation because he

I) is fond of criticizing others, 2) feels happy being alone.


3) is interested in cooking.

is good at making jokes@

 The narrator wanted to take Gabe to Oaxaca because

1)  he could speak Spanish.

2)  there are a lot of entertainments for children there, 3) he knew a lot         local cultures.

4) he was the best to keep her company.

Gube was struck when he

I) was told that local cooking techniques were a thousand years old. 2) saw the man next to him eat insects.

did not find any dish to satisfy his appetite„ understood that hot dog was less gross than a, local delicacy.

The Oaxacan people eat insects because this kind of food

I) tastes pleasant.

2)    is easy to

3)    contains an essential nutritional element. 4) helps to cure many diseases.

At the end of the class Gabe felt regret because

1) there were Jot of dishes he could not make on his own. the dishes he made were not tasty.

3)   he did not want to go back home.

4)   he had not managed to master all the dishes he liked.

8. Too much choice

 

 When you are tired and don't want to cook, just pick up the phone. Restaurants are expensive and take some time and effort to reach if you don't live in the centre of town. Ordering food for hame delivery is cheap and these days there is a huge choice. Indian and Chinese are the most popular but I prefer to get in u pizza.

A school group on skiing holiday to Italy narroN+Iv avoided disaster when their coach left the road and fell eighty meters into a valley. Trees slowed down the falling coach and because of the fresh new snow the vehicle landed quite softly. Amazingly no one WHS injured.

 A teenager from London is making news around the world. On his recent holiday in Australia he set off without his mobile phone. Experts are amazed that he is still alive after walking for fourteen days, surviving extreme temperatures and living off the land. However, lot of Australians are unhappy with him. The rescue cost is estimated at more than 100,000 dollars.

D. You can buy almost anything, new or second hand, on the internet. On one site you can offer the price you want to pay for something. Whoever offers the highest price buy that item. Recently I made the highest offer for a nearly new pair of skis. However, I only paid half of what they would have cost. new in a shop. Making new friends on the internet makes so much sense. You can see someone's photo and read if they share your interests and opinions. The important thing is you can spend time getting to know people who ure attractive to you and looking for the same things in life that you are. Still, for personal safety, most sites recommend that in person you meet initially in a public place like a café or  gullet'ÿ.

 I like eating out but some restaurants have huge menus. And usually every item sounds mouth watering. The trouble is I like to read about everything on offer and sometimes waiters wait for me rather than on met The other issue is how they can offer so much whilst maintaining quality? lt d rather take one of five options knowing that each one was brilliant.

G. "Facebook" is a social networking website that has 250 million members and despite lots af criticism by employers, governments and media, continues to attract thousands of new users daily. In spite of claims of concerns about privacy, safety and wasting time at work, "Facebook" is one of the most rapidly establishing phenomena of recent years.

She was only about four or five and so agile. We danced around in our bathing suits to audiocassettes and records from all the Broadway musicals.

Avoidance activity


I am in Birmingham, sitting in a café oppoeite a hairdresser's. I'm trying to find the courage to go in and book an appointment, I've been here three quarters of an hour and am on my second large cappuccino. The table I'm sitting at has a wobble, so I've spilt some of the first cup and most of the second down the white trousers I was so proud of as I swanked in front of the mirror in my hotel room this morning. I can see the hairdressers or stylists as they prefer to be called, as they work. There is a man with a ponytail who is perambulating around the salon, stopping now and then to frown and grab a bank of customer's hair. There are two girl stylists: one has had her white blonde hair shaved and then allowed it explode into hundreds of hedgehog's quills; the other has hair any self-respecting woman would scalp for: thick and lustrous. All three are dressed in severe black. Even undertakers allow themselves to wear a little white on the neck and cuffs, but undertakers don't take their work half as seriously, and there lies the problem. I am afraid of hairdressers.

When I sit in front of the salon mirror stuttering and blushing, and saying that

I don't know what I want, know I am the client from hell. Nobody is going to win Stylist of the year with me as a model,

'Madam's hair is very th ...',they begin to say 'thin', think better of it and change it for 'finè'—ultimately, coming out with the hybrid word 'thine'. I have been told my hair is 'thine• many times. Are they taught to use it at college? Along with other conversational openings, depending on the season: 'Done your Christmas shopping?' 'Going away for Easter?' $Booked your summer holiday?' 'You are brown, been way?' 'Nights are drawing in, aren't they?' 'Going away for Christmas?'  am hopeless at small talk (and big talk). I'm also averse to looking at my face in a mirror for an hour and a half. I behuve as though I am a prisoner on the run.

I've looked at wigs in stores, but I am too shy to try them on, and I still remember the horror of watching a bewigged man jump into a swimming pool and then geeing what looked like a medium sized rodent break the surface and flout on the water, He snatched at his wig, thrust it anyhow on top of his head and left the pool. I didn't see him for the rest of the holiday.

There is behavior trait that a lat of writers share—it is called avoidance activity. They will do anything io avoid starting to write: clean a drain, phone their mentally confused uncle in Peru, change the cat's litter trayT I'm prone to this myself, in summer I deadhead flowers, even lobelia. In winter I'll keep a. fire going stick by stick, anything to put the moment of scratching marks on virgin paper,

I am indulging an avoidance activity now. I've just ordered another cappuccino, given myself a sever talking; For God's sake, woman} You are forty-seven years of age. Just cross the road, push the salon door open, and ask for an appointment!

It didn't work@ I'm now in my room, and I have just given myself a do-it-yourself hairdo, which consisted of a shampoo, condition and trim, with scissors on my Swiss army knife,

I can't wait to get back Lo the Toni & Guy salon in Leicester. The staff there haven't once called my hair i thinet and they can do wonders with the savagery caused by Swiss arrny knife scissors.

The narrator was afraid to enter the hairdresser's because she

1) had spilt coffee on her white trousers, 2) doubted the qualification of local stylists.


3) was strangely self-conscious. 4) was pressed for time.

Watching the stylists, the narrator concluded that they 1) were too impulsive.

2)    had hair anyone would envy.

3)    had strange hair-dos themselves.

attached too much importane.e to their

Orgem:

The narrator calls herself 'the client from hell' mainly because she

l) doesn't like to 100k at herself in the mirror.

2) never knows what she wants. 3) is too impatient to sit st,ilL 4) is too demanding.

OTBeyr't

The narrator doesn't like stylists as they

1)    are too predictable in their conversetion.

2)    have once suggested that she should try a wig.

3)    are too insensitive to clients 4) are too talkativÐ@

OrneT:


According to the narrator the avoidance activity is

1)   common to all writers,

2)   mostly performed in winter.

3)   talking to oneself@

4)   a trick to postpone the beginning 0t work..

The narrator finally

1)                talked herself into going and fixing an appointment.

2)                got her hair done at a hotel@

3)                eut her hair after shampooing it. 4) spoilt her hair completely„ OTBe•r:

The last paragraph means that the Toni & Guy sglon in Leicester ig the

1) only hairdresser's she has ever risked going to, 2) salon she trusts and is not afraid to go to,

3) place where she is a special client. 4) the first place she has ever tried.

As he und Fenella were ushered into the room by Cecily Deravenel, he [$3] his best not to rush over to the windowg to enjoy the view.

"It's lovely to see you both," Cecily was and then her tace broke into smilesì "Ah, here's your greatest admirer, Fenella. And Nanny with the other children."

A moment later Fenella and Cecily were surrounded by the youngsters, all clamoring for attention, and Mark took the opportunity to walk to the other end of the Mark always thought that  up children was so boring.


Turning around Mark allowed his eyes to sweep the room for an admiring moment, taking in long shelves of books, several memorable paintings, and the handsome antiques. made of dark, ripe woods. There were  sofas and chairs arrunged near the huge stone fireplace,  the warm weather, log fire was blazing, It was pleasure to be in such a nice roomì

His eyes settled on Fenellat who was momentarily preoccupied with the youngsters, and he had to admit he had never seen such beautiful children in his life. They might have just stepped out of a portrait by one of the greatest artists of the eighteenth century, Thomas Gainsborough, George Romney, Sir Joshua Reynolds. Suddenly he  be had had children.

2.    Radiation threat  6. Mobile booking office

3.    Threat for kids    7. New language

A.   Mobile phones use 'radio waves • Lo send signals. Since the 1920s, scientists have known that radio waves can cause the heating of the skin and influence the nervous system. But mobile phones don't produce many radio waves. Still children should be especially careful about mobile phone use because their nervous system may be hurt. Children should only use mobiles for short calls.

B.   It is known that the strength of radio wave radiation decreases with distance, It suggests that hands-free sets may be effective in avoiding all the dangers of mobile phones. But another study described an increase in radiation that reached the of a hands-free set. It says that the cable of the hands-free set acted as an antenna, directing more radio waves into the user's ear'

C.   Train passengers will soon be able to buy tickets on their mobile phone. Chiltern Railways plans to sell tickets through mobile phones. The new technology sends a code to a mobile phone in a text message, which passengers can then scan at the station ticket barrier. It's hoped the method will make buying tickets easier for passengers and help fight against queues at stations.

D, Many parents now use mobiles to control their children's behaviour, It gives parents peace of mind and makes young people feel protected. Parents say that young people are safer with mobiles than without them. But, while parents said they liked to call their children on the mobile to actually hear their voice, young people liked to send text messages to parents.

E.  A research showed that those young people who have a mobile feel more independent and often use it to plan meetings both relatives and peers. In particular, young people often use mobiles to ask their parents if they can come home later. The study showed that girls more often text parents to let them know they were safe than boys. They also use text messaging for socializing purposes.

F.   It is not only parents who want to connect with young people through mobile technologies. Nowadays politicians and different organizations look for wnys to use text messaging as channel for communication with the young. In late 2004, the UK government offered people the opportunity to 'text Tony'. People were invited to send a text question to the prime minister to be answered as part of a 'mobile chat'.

G. The popularity of text messages led to the development of a speciál system of words or 'chat speak'. For example, acronyms, that are words made from the first letters of other words, are often used both in online chatrooms and text messages sent to your mobile phone. This 'chat speak' is very popular with children who are fast at texting. Parents might be interested to know that 'PAW' means 'parents are watching'!

Cat's punctuality

Sergeant Podge, a Norwegian Forest Cat, disappears from his owner's home in a small town in Kent, every night. But what baffles his owner, Liz Bullard, mostly is the fact that the next morning, the 12-year-old cat always pops up in exactly the same place, AAnd every morning Ms. Bullard takes her son to school before collecting Sergeant Podge.

She said that the routine had set in earlier this year, when Sergeant Padge disappeared one day. Ms. Bullard spent hours telephoning her neighbours B

An elderly woman living about one and a half miles away called back to inform Ms. Bullard that she had found a cat matching Sergeant Podge's description. Ms. Bullard picked him up but within days he vanished from sight again. She rang the elderly woman C

She said a routine hug now become established, where each morning she takes her son to school before driving to collect Sergeant Podge D

It is thought Sergeant Podge walks across a golf course every night to reech his destination.

Ms. Bullard said: "If it's raining he may be in the bush but he comes running if I clap my hands." All she has to do is open the car passenger door from the inside for Sergeant Podge to jump in.

Ms. Bullard also makes the trip at weekends and during school holidays

She does not know why, after 12 years, Sergeant Podge has begun the routine but explained that another woman who lived nearby used to teed him sardines, and that he may be F

So far there are only two ways to get into space — you either have to be an astronaut or very rich. Countries such as Russia and the USA have space programs, but you need to be highly qualified and very determined if you want to become an astronaut. Only a few of the thousands of applicants make it through the training and selection program, Alternatively, if you have the money and are fit enough, you may be able to buy a place on the space journey, as the US millionaire, Mike Melwill did in 2004. But soon there may be another way.

Asif Mahsood is a 14-year old Pakistani with big plans. He dreams of getting a job in space, but hopes he doesn't need to become an astronaut. And the idea is not so fantastic. Many experts believe that the travel industry will be revolutionized during the next decades by the development of space holidays.

Most people know about the space stations that ure Already circling the Earth. They are used for research and are operated by professional astronauts. But soon a space station could be built for commercial purposes. A holiday in space would not be cheap, but there are probably already plenty of people who would be prepared to pay.


This is where Asif's dream comes in. He wants to be the manager of the world's first orbiting hotel. It is likely that rocket ships will provide the transport. They could be launched from the Earth's surface, or even trom a carrier aircraft high in the atmosphere. The space hotel will he designed with a landing platform for the rocket ship. The passengers could then move into the hotel through a large tube connected to the hotel entrance. This would be necessary because there is no gravity in space. However, inside the space hotel there would need to be system creating artificial gravity, so that guests could move around normally.

Naturally, if hotels are built m space, there will also be new jobs in space. Guests will need all the normal services found in a hotel on Earth, but there will also be some new possibilities. For example, all sorts or recreation activities could be designed to take advantage of the zero gravity conditions in space. Being Able to float ground a room, bounce off the walls and ceiling would be very Attractive for tourists looking for a new experience. Games of three-dimensional football, basketball or volleyball would certainly be very interesting. The hotel would also have telescopes to look out at the universe, and to look back at the Earth below.

A space hotel will need to have other facilities that are not necessary in normal hotels. It would be more like a small city in some ways, with its own hospital, communication system, police force and Tire department.

In the meantime, Asif is gomg to keep studying hurd at gehool so that he can find  job working in one of the big International hotels in Lahore or Karachi. He wants to qualify in hotel management and continue to study business administration. The hotels are much the same, so Asif believes that the best preparation for a job in space will be gaining plenty of experience working in Earth hotels.

The whole idea of hotels in space may sound a little like science fiction, but 30 years ago technology such as mobile video phones and the Internet seemed to be just a crazy dream, whereas today they are a normal part of everyday life, and it is hard to imagine our world without them.

Who is Mike Melwill?

1)  The founder of a new space program.

2)  An American scientist.

3)  A highly-qualified astronaut.

4)  A man who paid for a space travel.

Asif's final aim is to

1)  become an astronaut.

2)  go an a space holiday.

3)  'be a hotel manager in Pakistan. 4) work in a new type of a hotel.

What will be new in the operations of space stations in the future?

Scientific research will be performed on them.

2)    They will be used for training professional astronauts.

3)   


They will be used for making money. They will be less expensive.

In space hotels, a large tube will be necessary for

1)   creating artificial gravity.

2)   connecting the hotel to the landing area.

3)   linking hotels with the Earth. 4) launching the rocket ships.

Which of the following is NOT described as possible entertainment in space hotels?

1)  Walks in the open space.

2)  Jumping on the ceiling.

3)  Watching the Earth through a telescope. 4) Playing extra dimensional volley-ball.

Space hotels will require

l) exactly the same services and facilities as normal hotels. 2) absolutely different services and facilities than normal hotels. 3) more services and facilities than normal hotels.  less services and facilities than normal hotels.

Orgem: El


The author argues that

1)   many things that used to be science fiction exist nowadays.

2)   rich people should finance the space exploration. 3) space hotels are just a crazy dream.

it's already hard to imagine our world without space travelling..

But this didn't work well. No matter how few the  faults were, Father had no patience with them, One summer, I remember, there was nice woman Delia who got on well with Mother because she was so obliging and pleasant, but who didn't Father at all. don't give u damn how obliging she is," he to say.

This didn't sound unreasonable, but to _ the truth, Delia cooked well enough for the rest of us. Mother tried no attention to Father's grumbling.

Take it awayt" And while Mother and Delia were frantically making a fresh pot, he would eat all of his omelet and bacon, and then declare that he was starved.

The longer Delia stayed with us, the more alarmed Father became. He ate heartily, but he said he didn't feel nourished, At last Mother had to  that it was impossible to go on like this„ "This is Delia's last night. I do hope you will like Tobo, they say, he is a very good cook."

Now we are ready to start.

Speaker A


If you ask me, I think fashion is kind of unnatural. I mean who careg About tiny details like pockets here or pockets there. I believe clothes should serve their purpose. When it's hot, they shouldn't be too warm and when it's cold they should keep you warm and protect you from winds when it's necessary. I'd never buy a coat or a jacket just because they're said to be fashionable now — to buy an item of clothing I must feel comfortable in it.

Speaker B  argue with my parents all the time — just really all the time — because they say I've got loads of clothes which in their opinion I never wear. They just don't understand it — I do need all these clothes. I may spend too much time in the morning choosing what to put on — okay, I admit that. To be perfectly frank, I must also admit that sometimes I forget what I have in my wardrobe. But it's great having u choice, My parents just don't get it.

Speaker C

From time to time I may switch on a fashion channel or look through a beauty magazine. My elder sister is a shopping consultant and she tells me about the hottest trends when I ask her to. She helps people create their own style in clothes and she says that clothes are fashionable only if they become you. You must consider your style, your looks and figure when you want to buy something new because otherwise you won't look good.

Speaker D

It's not that I'm really a passionate follower ot fashion — no, nobody would say that about me. But I spend a lot of time in clothing shops and I do care about what


 put on each day and I never wear the same outfit two days a week. I look through fashion magazines Lo find out the latest trends. I do all those things just because I feel it's a sign of respect for yourself and the people ground you when you pay attention to your clothes and looks.

Speaker E

I think when people talk about fashion they often mean street fashion — what people wear every day. I don't think it's true fashion. It's more like a kind of hysteria — she has such a dress — I wunt such a dress too. Real fashion is top fashion, runways and limelight. famous designers like D&G and big brands. These clothes are expensive and anyway you won't put them on when you go to work and they are impractical — they are just beautiful,

Speaker F

Fashion? I never waste my time thinking about it. I have so much to do for my studies tbAt I simply put on whatever I find in my wardrobe — usually it's a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. I never go to clothes shops — my mom knows my size and she buys me what she thinks I need. I trust her taste and I believe ghe knows best really. I'm too practical and down-to-earth a person to think about matching colors or stuff like that so I just don't care about. it.

Michael: Yeah. I'm so tired! I can't believe this week is over. So many lectures I'm exhausted! And that seminar on History — torture! I don't know how I'll manage this term. Thank God tomorrow is Saturday.

Jane: My week wasn't so tiring.

Michael: That's because you love what you are doing. You know I have entered this place just because my parents wanted me to. sometimes think I hate every minute I spend heret

Jane: So, Saturday. We could have some fun. I have plans for the evening but my morning and afternoon are totally free. Any ideas?

Michael; How about a film? They are showing a new blockbuster at the movie theater. You know, the one starring Michael Douglas.

Jane: A film? During the day?

Michael: Yes, why not?

Jane: Well, I don't know I prefer watching films in the evening really.

Michael: Okay. Well, why don't we go to the sports centre then? We can go swimming; they have opened the swimming pool after the renovation. It must be fantastic:

Jane: There are always lots of children in the pool on Saturdays. Besides, I don't like swimming very much.

Michael: You are so capricious todayt Well, how about Shopping then? I hope you won't turn down this offer:

Jane: Yes, I definitely like shopping more than swimmingt

Michael: I,nnk how enthusiastic you are now! Okay, where shall we go? There's that new shopping centre in Bath. The ads look inviting.

Janet Shopping in new mall! That does sound like fun. And what about the shops in Clifton? Oh, wait, no, I've forgotten that the Shops are more expensive there.

Michael: Yeah, I was going to say that too, and besides Clifton's very crowded on the weekend. If we come across something we like, we'll spend half the evening in line at the checkout.

Jane: All right, all right, we'll go to Bath then.

Michael: 1 think the new shopping centre in Bath must have a good restaurant. Let's go to the shopping centre in the morning and then we can have lunch there.

Jane: Okay, that sounds like a good idea.


       Michael: Let's meet at eleven end          eart take the bus.

Presenter: Good evening. Tonight we've got the famous film critic Mariela Smith with us to talk about her favorite films from the last ten years. How do you do, Mariela. We've missed you.

Mariela Smith: Hello, everybody. It's a pleasure being here again.

Presenter: Thank you. So, Mariela, what do you think is the hest film of the last ten years?

Mariela Smith: Some people find it a difficult question, you know. The choice is enormous and it depends on our current mood as well. Well, there's absolutely no

-rwr10BblE 3K3AMEHAUß•10HHb.lE BAPVIAHTk1

competition for I know a lot of people think it was 'Gladiator', but for me the best film in the last ten years was 'American Beauty' — it was so different, with unexpected twists of the plot, very clever; and it had the best acting, think though some actors were newcomers to the cinema world. It was the most unusual film in the last ten years.

Presenter: so, no vote for *Gladiator' from you?

Mariela Smith: Oh, I think •Gladiator' was really good. It was definitely the most exciting film, but it's just not my favorite. It wag just normal, ordinary. There's no mystery here behind the screen which is I think an essential far a truly good film.

Presenter: Were there any surprises for you in the last ten years?

Mariela Smith: Surprises well, yes. I think the biggest. surprise 'The Sixth Sense' — it was a fantastic film from an unknown director. No one expected it. I think it's also the scariest film in the last ten years, When you watch it and imagine it happening — just the very thought that it might be possible — it makes my heart jump.

Presenter: What about. foreign language films? Any good ones there?

Marie/a Smitht Well, lots, of course, lots of films are worth mentioning but the one that I believe was begi was *All about my Mother', by Pedro Almodovar, It was a lovely film, very sad, but the most interesting foreign language film of the ten years. It has a peculiar mixture Of positive and negative feelings, joys and sorrows — there's everything in this film. Everybody can find something in it which will touch upon their soul.


Presenter: Mmm, I liked that one too. You don't like violent films, do you?

Mariela Smith: No, I don't like such films in general, but there's one violent film that I'd like to talk about — 'Pulp Fiction'. That was very violent in my opinion, possibly the mast violent film of the ten years, but it was so good — it was definitely the best mixture of action and comedy at the time. And John Travolta was really fantastic as a villain — it's not usually the kind of part he plays, but he played the bad guy so well in this one. Everybody knows how gifted he is as an actor but this film revealed another aspect of his talent. Thig was a surprise.

Presenter: Well, I think that's all we have time for

Mariela Smith: No, wait a moment. There's one more film I really want to mention, and that's 'Chicago', I don't usually like musicals at the cinema, but it really was the freshest musical for a long time — it was really good. But I believe it was so good just because of the cast. Put other actors there — and you'd probably get a complete flop.

Now we are ready co start. Speaker A


Like many children in my country, I first learned the value of money by getting an allowance. My parents thought it was really important that children should learn about money at an age when possible financial mistakes are not very costly for them, And do you know what? I never wasted a single penny on silly things like sweets and chocolate bars — I used to buy books and magazines instead. Having pocket money made me financially wise.

Speaker B

Some of my classmates get a lot of pocket money. I guess just how much money parents give their kids differs from family to family. I used Lo get a small weekly allowance and my parents made it very clear what, if anything, I was expected to use that money for. If I really needed something, like maybe new trainers or anything else, my parents  for me without saying a word. But things like snacks, tickets to the cinema and so on — that's what pocket money is for.

Speaker C

I got my first allowance at the age of 7 and I spent every penny as soon as I got it. So you I learned the hard way that spending money should be done within a budget. My parents never offered me more money between allowances. I soon understood that having a budget means making choices about whether to spend or to save. When I got older, I became responsible enough to save money for larger purchases, like clothing and electronics. So my parents taught me a good lesson.

Speaker D

Some of my classmates get pocket money for helping About the house. That's not the case with me. My parents guy these jobs are a normal part of family life. If I do routine work I don't get paid. However, my parents do pay me to do extra work around the house, like painting the fence and things like that. My parents think this can help me understand how a business works. I don't know though. As for me, I prefer a regular monthly allowance.

Speaker E

I can't imagine life if I didn't get pocket money. Some people say an allowance can turn kids into spoilt brats, but luckily my parents don't share this opinion. There are a lot of good things one can do with pocket money, like sharing it in the farm of gifts or giving it to a good cause. Or I can spend it buying things want. And, of course, there's a third option: I can save and maybe even invest it — but this I have never managed to do, honestly.

Speaker F

When my parents gave me my weekly pocket money, they always used to talk to me about the importance of saving. They used to tell me that if I had an expensive goal, I had to cut costs and plan for the future. Then I read about banks offering services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance, so I opened an account. At first, it didn't seem like a lot, but over time it added up and now I can pay for my gap year and first year at college.

Jack: I would if could, believe me. It's just annoying when you can't have fun doing something.

Tracy: Hang in there. I promise, it'll get interesting. Look at that lovely portrait, for instance.


Jack: Okay, it's not bad. It looks like it must be from the 19th century. So, I guess you like realism?

Tracy: Actually, don't. But I enjoy looking at the hairstyles and dress designs from the past and they're best shown in realist paintings. I'm really into fashion, as you know.

Jack: Well, prefer pictures that are true to life, where even" leaf and every flower is depicted exactly as it really is.

Tracy: Like in still life paintings?

Jack: Well, yes. If have to look at art, I'd rather see that kind of picture.

Tracy: Then look over there, there's a good one. Flowers in vase, watermelons, grapes, cherries. Yum! It makes my mouth water.

Jack: Now that you mention food, I could do with a snack right now. I haven't had anything to eat since morning and I'm starving.

Tracy: I'm sure there's a caff on the ground floor. Why don't we get a bite to eat and then return to the gallery?

Jack: Agreed. Anri if we have to go back, l t d love to see some landscapes. They're inspiringl

Tracy: Especially the romantic ones. The dramatic contrasts in romantic landscapes are unbelievable. I'm glad you're finally beginning to feel more enthusiastic about

museums.

Jack: I'm afraid you've missed the point. The sooner we begin, the sooner we finish. Let's go eat something.

Reporter: Hello, everybody, here we are with our weekly program about education in America. Today we're looking at international students attending colleges and universities in the USA. Here's our expert, Jane Brown — an aide to the president or the Institute of International Education.

Jane Brown: Good afternoon.

Reporter: So, Jane, how many international students are coming Lo the States to study?

Jane Brown: A new report says there are more and mCjre of them. In particular, it notes a large increase in the number of international students from China. These findings are from the latest edition of the Open Doors Report, which is a joint project

runoBblË 3',aAMËHAUMOHHblE 8APVIAHTbl

of the State Department and the Institute of International Education, non-profit educational and training organization. It documents the record number of international students in the United States during the 2011—2012 school year. It says that more than 750,000 international students were attending American colleges and universities during that period. That represents an increase of almost 6%, compared to one year earlier.

Reporter: What about Americans? Are they also studying abroad in bigger nurnbers? Jane Brown: Well, by comparison, number Of Americans Studying overseas increased by just

Reporter: You say many international students in America come from China.

Jane Brown: The report says about 200,000 students at American colleges and universities were front China. That is an increase of more than 23% over the year before. That was the highest level ever, and it really showed in the figures. It also means that international undergraduate enrollment was higher than graduate enrollment.

Reporter: Do you have any explanation for this trend?

Jane Brown: Many Chinese families can pay for the highest quality education for their children. We know many or them have enough income to afford to send their children anywhere in the world. And, for the most part, with all the options they have, Chinese students still choose the United States as their destination of choice.

Reporter: Good for usl Any other interesting facts about the statistics of international education in America?


Jane Brown: Chinese students are not the only ones attending American colleges and universities in large numbers. After China, India sends the second largest number of students to the United States for higher education, and South Korea is the third with about 80,000 students.

Reporter; So why do so many foreign students want to study in the United States? Jane Brown: I believe the advantage America has is that we have a very diverse system. At the same time, there are over 4,000 universities and colleges in the United States, and what that tells us ig that there is a lot of room to host international students, The numbers I've just provided you with may seem huge, but actually foreign students represent less than 4% of the total student population in American higher education.

Reporter; Does this mean there is still a lot of room for international students to come to us?

Jane Brown: Exactly'

Reporter: Thank you, Jane.

What's my favorite holiday? I know this may sound sta•ange, but I love Easter. My family isn't very religious, but I am aware of which Easter traditions are connected with the Bible. For example, there's the tradition of painting eggs and giving them to other people as a symbol of eternal life, but few people actually do this anymore. Instead, they buy chocolate eggs, and adore chocolate — sweets are my true passion. And that's why I love Easter!

Speaker B

My friends say too often that I laugh too much and I agree. That's why I enjoy April Fools Day so much. You may know it takes place every year on April 1st and on this day you never really know if someone is trying to pull your leg. And it'S important that even if someone tries to fool you, you don't lose your temper. Otherwise, people may suspect you of the worst possible sin — a bad sense of humor. No one has ever accused me of that!

Speaker C

As a girl, I always enjoy celebrating Women's Day on March 8th most of all. This is the day for paying tribute to all women — and, first Of all, your mothers and grandmothers. In some places this day is called Mother's Day and it, Loot is celebrated in spring. Men give women flowers and presents and they do all the domestic work around the house and in the kitchen. For women, it's a relaxing break from domestic routines — a nice change and a chance to rest!

Speaker D

Some people love New Year's Eve, but I adore Christmas. The holiday is connected with the birth of Jesus Christ as told in the Holy Bible. When Jesus was born, wise men from the East came to worship him and they gave the child presents. That's why


people nowadays try to please their friends and relatives by giving Christmas presents. It's a very sincere holiday and I think everyone feels a bit kinder and more generous ort        day,

Speaker E

I think New Year is especially popular with children. In many houses there's fir End other decorations. Families get together to welcome in the new year — a truly magical moment. You can start your life anew if you want to — make resolutions, talk about plans and promises, or share your most secret thoughts; if you do these things, probably your wishes will come true — at least I like to think so. On that day anything can happen — so give it a try!

Speaker F

In my country it's not celebrated, but I've always thought Thanksgiving is a great tradition. It has an interesting legend behind it in 1621 the first pilgrims in America were dying of hunger, but neighbormg Native Americans helped them survive. On this day everyone has the chance to say $thank you' for everything good that has happened in their lives durmg the year. So although it's not my national holiday, on that day I do it in secret because I'm thankful to God.

Presenter: Hello, everybody, and welcome to our weekly program for parents. Every week we invite experts to talk about the burning issues that parents have when bringing up their children. Today's expert is Lora Johns.

Lora Johns; Good afternoon.

Presenter: Lora, what exactly are you going to talk about today?

Lora Johns: Today I'd like to talk about kids and pocket money.

Presenter: That's definitely an important topic for our listeners!

Lora Johns: Many children first learn the value of money by receivmg an allowance. The idea is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly,

•rgn0BEdE OK3AMËHAUVIOHHb1E BAPk1AHTb1

Presenter: Sounds wise. So, how much money do parents usually give to their kids? Lora Johns: The amount of money that parents give to their children differs from family to family. Timmg is another consideration. Same children get a weekly allowance, others get a monthly allowance; any regular time period is OK. What's important is that parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to buy with the money.

Presenter: Is that so important?

Lora Johns: It's crucial! At first, young children often spend all of their allowance too quickly after they receive it. If they do thist they learn hard way that they need to have a personal budget. When I work with parents, I always advise that they not give their kids any more money until the next allowance. The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving' Older children should be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics.

Presenter: I know many people give their children pocket money for doing chores around the house. What do you think? IS that a good idea?

Lora Johns: Many experts who have written on the subject of allowances say it's not a good idea to pay your child for domg regular household chores, like washing the dinner dishes. These jobs are just a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful, It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.

Presenter: So, pocket money is a positive thing after all?


Lora Johns: It can be. Allowances give children g. chance to experience the things they can do with money. They can Share it in form Of gifts or donations to a good cause, They can use it to buy things they want. Or they can and maybe even invest it.

Presenter: In your opinion, which lesson is the most important here?

Lora Johns: Definitely saving. It helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice: you have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowance can also open the door to more saving and investing in the future. Many banks offer specialized accounts to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance. At the same time, of course, the banks are creating future customers.

Presenter: Could you explain how exactly it works?

Lora Johns: A savings account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest, Interest rates on savings can be very low these days. But compounding works by paying interest on interest. So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest will earn two cents in the first year. The second year, the money Will earn two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot. But over time it adds up. Presenter: Thank you, Lora.

My friends say volunteering isn't a good idea. The thought of doing something for free doesn't attract them at all. But think volunteering is absolutely necessary in the modern world. If you help someone today; maybe somebody else will help you when you need it. Or maybe they'll help your friends or relatives. Kind things are like a boomernng — they come back to the people who do something positive without expecting anything in return.

Speaker B

Volunteering is hard in my opinion. You have to find time in your schedule to do tasks that are often hard, either physically or psychologically. Still, many teenagers, including me, volunteer their time, not only because doing something good invites good karma, but also because it'll look good on your C.V. If you have been a volunteer; your chances to be accepted at a good college or university jump right up. By helping others, you can help yourself,

Speaker C

For me, volunteering is a chance to meet new people and make friends. I take part in international volunteering programs, like youth sun-amer camps that focus on the environment or teach younger kids. I have many friends on Facebook, thanks to my volunteer activities, and now I know much more about the world around me. I'd really like to be a volunteer at the Olympic village in Sochi in 2014, but I hear foreigners can't do that. It's such a pity!

Speaker D

I've been working as a volunteer for several years already and I enjoy it immensely. I feel socially usefúl and part of the community I belong to, It might take lot of my time and energy and be very demanding, but the satisfaction I get in the end is

worth it all. Volunteering is so rewarding. And thanks to wise time management, somehow I always find time for everything — studies, leisure and helpmg others, so it iB really great.

Speaker E

I think everyone should try volunteering at some point in their life, And it's not only about being useful to your community; Volunteering teaches you about yourself and the world around you. You begin to appreciate what you have, but might have been taking for granted, because you see so many people who can't afford the simplest things that you use every day without noticing it. When you understand the real value of things, you grow up.

Speaker F

I'm a volunteer at the local library and I'm proud of it. My job is to find books for the library. I find old books people have already read and don't want anymore. At first, when I knocked on people's doors, they didn't understand what I wanted; sometimes they even laughed at me, but I didn't give up. I organized a fair and a book sale and people began to pay attention. I've managed to collect many books for the library — and that's quite an achievement!

Matthew: Hi, Jill. I'll be happy if I can help somehow. What's up?

Jill: It's my Mum's birthday next week and I want to make a special surprise for her and cook somethmg really delicious and unusual for her birthday dinner. You've traveled a lot and tried different cuisines. Can you suggest something?

Matthew: I don't know. What would you like to try cooking? A first course? Dessert?

Jill: Something not too complicated. I don't have much experience with cooking.

Matthew: OK. Well, you know, my grandmother comes from Germany. She's become quite Americanized, but she still cooks a lot of German national dishes, especially, desserts.


Jill: German desserts? That sounds interesting. Can you name any?

Matthew; Just a second. I'm trying to think. Well, for instance, 'Apfel Kuchen', which is bit like our apple pie. There are other types of German pastries my granny prepares. I think she can give you a reeipe if you ask her.

Jill: Don't you think she might mind?

Matthew: I don't think so. In fact, I think she'll be pleased. But I should warn you, I think it's probably not a piece of cake making those recipes, if you'll forgive the pun.

Jill: Well, you might be right. What should I do then?

Matthew: One more idea is soup.

Jill: Soup? Nobody ever eats soup in my family!

Matthew: Why not? Don't they like it?

Jill: I don't know, actually.

Matthew: Soups are quite easy Lo cook and there are so many unusual ideas for making them. Hungarian cuisine, for instance, has a lot of various soups.

Jill: Is Hungarian food considered good?

Matthew: Actually, yes. Hungarian food is quite special, almost like French cuisine. Even exotic, I'd say.

Jill: Do you think I have all the necessary kitchen equipment and utensils to make soup?

Matthew: A stove, a pot, a sharp knife, a spoon to stir it all. I think you just need the regular stuff. Have you got all that?

Jill: Of course! So can you give me a recipe?

Matthew: I'll send a selection tonight by e-mail so you ran choose one.


Jill: Thanks, Matthew, you're a real star.

Now we are ready start.

Presenter: Here we are with our program 'Daily Psychology'. Our expert, Tom Burk, will tell us something exciting about building relationships in the modern world. Hello, Tom:

Tom Burk: Good afternoon.

Presenter: So, Tom, tell us about today's topic?

Tom Burk: Today we're focusing on the psychology of starting a relationship or getting acquainted, LWhen do people decide it they want to become friends? It turns out it happens during the first four minutes they're together. Today I'll offer brief advice to anyone who is about Vo start a new friendship, but as we have just a few minutes on show, let me sum it up like this: if you meet someone in a social situation, give them your full attention for four minutes.

Presenter: So how should people behave during these four minutes?

Tom Burk: Firstly, when somebody is introducing us to new people, we should try to be friendly and self-confident. In general, people like people who like themselves. On the other hand, we shouldn't make the other person think we are too sure of ourselves. It's important to be interested and sympathetic, realizing that the other person has their own needs, fears and hopes. pay attention to their interests, hobbies, family members, and the result will be practically immediate.

Presentet% So probably you need to be born with these skills?

Tom Burk: I often hear people say you must have a talent for communication. True, some people establish contacts faster and more effectively than others, but this ability isn't genetic and can be learned.

Presenter: Several people nowadays have their first communication with other people on•line. Are your recommendations useful for them?

Tom Burk: For many modern people Internet communication is the best way to start a relationship, either because Of their lifestyle or their  For instance, they may work long hours or they're Shy. HOWever„ meeting someone online can be fine if at the end you want to meet them face-to-face. Sorry to say, Internet addicts are a common problem — these people just can't Stop surfing the Net, and they never actually meet their online friends in real life,


Presenter: Acting self-confident sounds like good advice — but is it really for everyone ?

Tom Burk: Some people might think it's dishonest to give the appearance of friendly self-confidence when we don't actually feel that way. Perhaps, but many psychologists believe that so-called "total honesty' isn't always good for social relationships, especially during the first four minutes of contact, and I share their point of view. Some play-acting may be good for the first minutes of contact with a stranger. For example, a first meeting probably isn't the best time to complain about your health or to find faults with other people. It's better just to ask questions, talk about the weather and cultural life, things like that.

Presenter: So it's not the time to tell the whole truth about your opinions.

Tom Burk: Exactly.

Presenter: Do you have any final recommendations, Tom?

Tom Burk: I'd like to add that much Of what was said here also be applied to relationships with family members and friends. According to scientists, husbands and wives or parents and children often have problems during the first four minutes they're together after being apart for some time. Psychologists think that everyone should treat the first four minutes together with the utmost care. If there are some unpleasant issues, they should probably discuss them a bit later. After they've got used to each other again, they can calk about it with greater understanding,

Now we are ready to start.

Speaker A

I got, interested in hitchêhiking after watching the famous film *Euro Tour'. It's a hilarious comedy where g. group Of friends travel around Europe looking for adventure. I inspired by the film and decided try it with my friends. The film offers good advice — like how to find really Cheap plane tickets or a hostel to spend the night in. We followed same route from film while hitch-hiking and I must say loved every minute of it!

Speaker B

Hitch-hiking may look like a romantic and exciting way of traveling for some people, but I really don't think it is. When I travel, I like to do it in comfort, I always plan my travel thoroughly, reserving hotel rooms well in advance. Now it's even possible to buy tickets online to popular museums so I don't have to waste precious time queuing. With hitch-hiking, everything is very spontaneous and decided on the spot, That's not for me,

Speaker C

I've never tried hitch•hiking myself, but my friends hitch-hiked last year across Australia and they say there are some ups and downs about this kind of traveling. The advantages are you're free to go wherever you want, and you're always in the moment, seeing things that ordinary tourists miss becausc they're always focused on their plan. As for possible cons, hitch-hiking can be dangerous. For instance, my friends got mugged at gunpoint.

Speaker D

Hitch-hiking is the only kind of traveling I can afford. All my classmates are planning their gap years thinking about all the exciting places they'll go and the fascinating sights they'll But mg — I don't have enough money to pay for a posh gap •year. Instead I spent my savings on a really expensive laptop that I'll need at university. So hitch-hiking is the only way I can afford to have a great time before I settle into my studies cOllege.

Speaker E

Many people think that hitch-hiking is just a way for cheap kids to save some money while traveling across the country; Just put your thumb out and get a lift. I disagree. Many drivers who tend to stop to pick up hitch-hikers are friendly and talkative people bored making a long trip. They just want to have a nice chat to the time. The drivers help the hitch-hikers, and the hitch-hikers help the drivers. Everyone benefits this way:

Speaker F

I'm an experienced hitch-hiker and I enjoy this way of travelling immensely. I've gone to really a lot or different great places hitch-hiking, and it's saved me much money. If you want to enjoy it, you need to observe a few simple rules. First, be polite and talkative. Second, you must write your destination on a big piece of paper and hold it up while waiting for a lift. Be friendly and patient ag well. This will definitely help you on the road.

Irenet Well, I've got an idea. Let's go to a concert tonight.

Jack: You know, Irene, I'm as crazy about music as you are, but if you're talking about going a symphony orchestra concert or opera, I'm out.

Irene: It's neither of those. Actually, I had a rock concert in mind.

Jack: I didn't know you liked rock music.

Irene: Well, I do: My father really loves rock music, and I'm definitely my father's daughter. He's got an extensive collection of rock albums. You know, the classics, like Chuck Berry and Ray Charles.

Jack: As for me, I'm keen on country music. Rock's just too loud for me. I find songs deafening and meaningless.

Irenet Sorry, I just can't agree with you. The best rock songs are never meaningless. Take Tracy Chapman's songs. She's one of my favorites. She writes her songs herself and they aren't the usual mix of bouncy dance tunes and meaningless lyrics. She writes about personal pain, politics and poverty.

Jack: OK, I'll give you Tracy Chapman. Her hit singles usually spend weeks at the top of the charts both in US and the UK. What I like about her is her simple and natural style. And I guess why she's so popular.

Irene: I'm with you there! In concert and in videos, she never uses make-up, costumes or special effects — just her voice and an acoustic guitar. So, you see, Jack — you do like rock music!

Jack: Okay, I take my words back, sorry. I suppose you already know, Tracy Chapman's concert is going to be on TV next Saturday. Are you going to watch it?

Irene: guess so, but wish I could see the performance live. But it'S probably too late to get tickets, It's going to be at the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts. Shows there always sell out.

Jack: You never know before you try. Why not call and ask?

Irene: Okay, I'll do it first thing tomorrow. Shall I tell you if there are still tickets available?

Jack: Yes, please, I'd love to go if the price is reasonable.

Irene: OK. But in the meantime, what are we going to do tonight?

Jack: Oh, I don't want to bother going out. Let's have a quiet night in and rent a film.

Irene: Fine. Shall we order a pizza as well?

Jack: Good ideal Pizza and movie — nothing better!

Now we are ready to start.

Presenter: Welcome to our program where we speak about the burning issues of our modern world. Today we're talking medicine and longevity. Our expert today is Lora Johns, MD.

Lora Johns: Good afternoon.

Presenter: So, Lora, what are the latest trends in modern healthcare?

Lora Johns: A new study says people are living longer, but many are living longer in poor health. Researchers found that life expectancy has increased by about 5 years since 1990. On average, men worldwide can expect to live 67-and•a-half years. Women can expect to live to age 73.

Presenter: Have these results been published?

Lora Johns: Of course, this is a worldwide project. Almost 500 researchers in 50 countries took part in the study of global disease and disability. The findings appear in a senes Of articles in *The Lancet', whose editor-in-chief ig the famous Richerd Horton. Actually, he sounds quite optimistic about the statistics. He says that all of us in the world of health tend to focus too much on diseases and other bad news. Actually, the Global Burden of Disease 2013 Study presents very good news, at least in broad terms.

Presenter: Really? Could you explain this more?

Lora Johns: For instance, the research found that far fewer people died of measles. tetanus, respiratory problems and diarrheal diseases in 2013 than in 1993. Deaths from infections, childbirth-related problems and malnutrition fell about 17% to 13.2 million. presenter: What are the main objectives of modern healthcare?

Lora Johns: Global efforts have focused on reducing HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. HIV/AIDS deaths have dropped since 2006, and TB deaths fell almost 20% since 1990. But each of these diseases still kills more than a million people every year. The number of malaria deaths increased by an estimated 20%, to almost 1.2 million in 2011'L As Richard Horton puts it, those three big diseases are just not going away.

Presenter: What other comments have medical specialists made to the report?

Lora Johns: Well, we'd be wise to trust the expertise of Mike Cohen. He is the head of global health research at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, He was not involved in the research, but he says it shows a change taking place worldwide. What he thinks is that with infectious diseases being better controlled and people living longer, and with their diets and lifestyles changing, the inevitable consequence in health is that we have to deal much more broadly with hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes.

Presenter: That sounds like sad news.


Lora Johns: I totally agree. The Study also found that these kinds of non• communicable diseases caused more than half of the global burden of disease in 2013. The two biggest killers — heart disease and stroke — caused one-fourth of all deaths in 2013. That was up from one-fifth in 1993.

Presenter: I guess in many cases people can only blame themselves for their illnesses.

Lora Johns: True. There was a 48% increase in the number of deaths from lung cancer, commonly caused by smoking tobacco.

Presenter: The final question. What are the main causes of people's disabilities

Lora Johns: The top causes of disability are physical conditions like arthritis and back problems, and mental and behavioral problems like depression, anxiety and substance abuse. Harvard University professor Joshua Salomon, a co-author of the disability research, thinks that in general we've been more successful at reducing mortality and less successful at actually addressing chronic disability. Presenter: Thank you, Lora.

Speaker A


For any celebration you have so many people to give presents to: your mates, parents, relatives. It creates problem of choosing an original present. I think everybody is so tired of traditional gifts: To my mind, the simplest way out is accessories. They are always different and can suit everybody. For family members it may seem a good investment. if it's expensive enough and it may definitely help your friends look great at a party!

Speaker B

As for me, I dislike pragmatic, domestic gifts. They may be useful, of course, but when you get a present, you expect a surprise, not a new kind of washing powder. I do not understand people who are happy to get kitchen towels, cups, dishes or anything like that. If you do not have any innovative ideas, buy some perfume or flowers — they are not practical, they are pleasant.

Speaker C

Honestly speaking, I'd be glad to get g weekend camping Lour even a local place of interest. It would be the best present and the worst is perfume. Perfume ig the ultimate in personal gifts, even more than accessories. What scent a person chooses is unique and usually very subjective. It also looks like a last-minute decision which may seem impolite, unless you are absolutely sure in your choice, which, as I said is a rare case.

Speaker D

Giving and receiving presents can be stressful. A pidky person can dislike some gifts or even worse — give them to somebody else. Horrible! So I found a perfect way out gift certificate. For anyone who likes shopping it is ideal and you don't waste time trying to find something special. But there are disadvantages about a gift certificate Coo. A person may think that you just didn't want to be bothered and get offended, so it's not a universal present after all.


Speaker E

If you can afford it, try not to give things, but experiences as a present. It is not necessarily something very expensive. Tickets to the first night performance or to a new exhibition in an art gallery, or anywhere else will do fine. It is even better if you can go there together and share these experiences. Take a camera, With you and take pictures! Such a present will leave long-standing memories which are dear themselves.

Speaker F

Living in high-tech world, it would not be unusual to buy gadgets as a present. If your friend commutes, it can be an iPod, if your friend is very busy an electronic organizer will be an excellent idea. There are millions of choices and they are not expensive either. Such a present can show the person exactly how much thought you put into choosing the perfect gift taking into account his or her way of life and needs.

Presenter: With us in the studio today we have the owner of famous British Vintage Inns, Good afternoon, Mitchell.

Michael Mitchell: Good afternoon, but, please, call me Michael.

Presenter: so, Michael, what is so special about Vintage Inns for Englishmen or tourists?

Michael Mitchell: I must say one of our greatest advantages is that we are in really prime places. Imagine a, summer's day, a river gently flowing past as you enjoy a light lunch or an evening meal with friends, Or, maybe, it is winter and you sit in front of a log fire. Our inns are always in a quaint village in the heart of the English countryside which makes it attractive for both nostalgic British people and enthusiastic tourists.

Presenter: As I understand, most of your inns have their own gardens.

Michael Mitchell: Yes, it is certainly true. They are every bit as pleasant as the places the inns are in — ideal for a meal in tine weather, which is, of course, seasonal, Presenter: Still, competition is high in your sphere, Being not so close to centers of big cities, what do you do to make sure people will drive specially to you?

Michael Mitchell: Actually, I do nothing special to attract potential customers. you see, I do not have to as the inns are generally located in places worth visiting and many are close to enchanting walks. Very often there is a Vintage Inn close to a

Ere, TM(108b/E aK3AMEHAUWOHHSlE

stately home or a historic village or another attraction. What could be a better way to spend a day Off with family? Even London pubs cannot offer this.

Presenter: Any Chain Store risks becoming boring for clients they all 100k exactly the same. What do you think about this opinion?

Michael Mitchell: I'd like to say that every Vintage Inn is different, but they are all the same. All our inns will definitely offer the same high quality menu and standards of service. All our landlords and ladies share the passion for •getting it right'. However, each Vintage Inn has its own unique character. You will discover thatched roofs, soft, natural slate, buildings of hewn stone. There are Tudor, Georgian, Victorian and many more styles of architecture, including modern ones.

Presenter: What about food in Vintage Inns?

Michael Mitchell' What we offer is best described as leaning towards traditional home style cooking but with a contemporary twist. Still, we do allow the best of great food from around the world to add a little influence on what we do. Many of our dishes are our own creation — and all dishes are designed to look tempting and great on the plate.

Presenter: Is there difference between an afternoon menu and an evening one?

Michael Mitchell: Well, on working days at lunch time you can choose anything from a range of sandwiches to full three-course meals. Our evening meals also offer lighter choices but includes fish, chicken, pasta, salads, Steaks and pies too. On Sundays we include a choice of traditional roasts and puddings.

Presenter: What is your booking policy? You must have a long line of people wishing to visit your places!

Michael Mitchell: I know many people prefer to book for their Friday dinner well beforehand. Nevertheless, in fact, at Vintage Inns you cannot book! That is because we are ready to welcome you — seven days a week. Just turn up and we will make you feel welcome, even if you choose to come at the busiest time. As soon as a table is vacant, you can luave it.

Now we are ready to start.

Speaker A

I try to care about our planet. Some people argue that it's impossible for an individual to affect major changes, but I disagree as there're many things everyone can do to help our planet. Let's start with our homes. Encouraging your family to recycle regularly is a good thing to start with. Every glass bottle you recycle saves enough energy to run a TV for an hour, while recycling an aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours! It's not difficult to turn out the lights when you leave a room or use re-useable containers for your lunches.

Speaker B

My name is Walton and I'm from the USA. I'm personally concerned about our environment pollution. I try to protect the environment, to preserve it and leave it clean and undamaged for the next generations who are at risk of not being able to leave their homes due Lo the high city pollution. Yet now, in my native city (Boston) the smog has increased to such a threatemng level that my family and I had to move, because the air was harmful the health of my 4,yegr-old son.

Speaker C

In my country, England, there is hardly a part of it that is within its natural state. The typical English countryside, the hills and fields, have all been shaped by generations of cultivation. In fact, taking the planet as a whole there is hardly a part of it that humans have not changed. I tear that by our pollution humans are changing the places where they do not live and where they live. Deserts are becoming hotter, arctic ice is melting and wherever you you can see the ugly footprint of humanity.

Speaker D

Of course we should care more about our planet water supplies. When you use water wisely, you help the You save water for fish and animals. You

a-a. TWICBblE OKSAMEHAUMOHHE.IE BAPWAHTb1

help preserve drinking water supplies well. You save the energy that your water supplier uses to move water to you and the energy your family uses to heat your water. When you use water wisely, you save money as your family pays for the water you use. So if kids start learning to use water wisely today, they will be helping themselves in the future.

Speaker E

My name is Susan and I'm 17 years old. I think the earth is the home we all live in but many people simply don't care. I get depressed by all those warnings that we hear daily, acid rain, global warming and on and on. It is likely that there will always be some people who litter in towns and in the country, despite fines and knowledge of the environmental consequences. You cannot influence the way other people care for our planet and makes me very sad.

Speaker F

I suggest we should use all resources in the most efficient way possible. A green home will be a good solution here as it helps to conserve energy as well as water. Waste and pollution will be decreased too. A green home protects the environment by using renewable solar energy. Solar panels on the roof of a home collect sunlight, which is then converted into power to heat the home and run the home equipment. So a green home will save energy as well as money in addition to having other health benefits.

Emily: When I finished school I went to university, Melbourne University, and studied science. I then gained my university degree and after that worked in a heart disease research institute. At that time I decided to start my career in medicine.

David: Did you work in Melbourne?

Emily: Yes, in Melbourne, So I worked for a year, a bit over a year on different patient recovery programs, Then 1 wanted to have a break so I went truvelling and I travelled through Western Europe and ended up in London and I worked 8t the

hospital in an immunology lab and that was more diagnostic work. It was quite interesting. And after that I moved to Finland.

David:  great:

Emily: And I did my doctor's dissertation there.

David: I'm sorry for interrupting, I am just CttriOUS was it in English?

Emily: Yes, every student who is doing their dissertation, they have to write their works in English. And the seminars are given in English as well.

David: So you were in Finland for about five years. Do you speak Finnish?

Emily: Not very well, I can understand a bit, but it is quite a difficult language and because English was any mother tongue they wanted to practice their English and preferred to speak English with me. But yeah I did take lessons and try to learn it... and that was all...

David: I understand. I've had a similar experience with learning French, My frequent business trips to France didn't help me much in language learning — some basic skills only. I wish I could take time to start regular

Emily: Probably I needed more lessons in Finnish too. Anyway I decided to move back to Melbourne so I took the trans•Siberian train.

Davidt Incrediblet

Emily: Once I got back to Melbourne I started my post-doctoral research which was in a different field from heart problems, actually in the field of our immune system. David: Well, it is quite a different direction. What influenced you most?

Emily: I thitik it was my previous working experience in London and my colleagues at the lab who encouraged me greatly to start this. So that was three years and that was in Melbourne. Then I just published the work and decided to travel.

Callum: Hello, I'm Callum Robinson and this is Entertainment. Our topic today is films and film festivals. You may have heard of the Venice Film Festival and the Cannes Film Festival, glorious occasions with A-list celebrities from the movie world turning out to promote their latest projects. A festival you might not know is the Portobello Film Festival which is currently taking place in Portobello, un area of West London, It's had its own independent film festival for a number of years and to learn more about it I've invited the festival's director Jonathan Barnett. So, Jonathan, could you tell us about when and how the festival started.

201'


Jonathan Barnett: Well, it started in 1996 because even back in those days there were people making very low budget films often using video equipment and there wasn't really anywhere for them Show their films so we thought it would be nice to provide a platform for these filmmakers. We had the mad idea the time Of showing every film that was submitted and we also decided not Lo charge because I suppose at heart we weren't rabid capitalists.

Callum: So the festival started as a way of giving unknown filmmakers somewhere to show their films. As Jonathan said, to give them a platform. Then I've got a question. How many films are being shown and how do you manage to pay for it, for running the festival, I mean?

Jonathan BarnetE This year we're showing 700 films. The money comes in from funding mostly, we get money from people and orgamzations like Film London and the Arts Council and we also get different kinds of support from sponsors. So we don't have to pay for advertising, we don't have to pay for launch parties. we don't have to pay for prizes.

Callum: Over the first three weeks of August 700 films are being shown as part of the Portobello Film Festival. What kind of films can be seen? Are they just short student films or does the festival attract big names as well? Here's the festival's director Jonathan Barnett.

Jonathan Barnett: The actual films we're showing are a lot better than anything you'll see on TV or on multiplexes and it's everything from student films and we also get stuff tram top filmmakers like, for instance, John Malkovich. So I think because we're u festival has a reputation for a, certain amount Of integrity and also being u little bit out on a limb we attract the big names as well as people who are just starting out. The first year of the festival we had Guy Ritchie's first film which wag called the "Hard Case", which was fantastic, it's exactly the same as Lock Stock and Snatch but he was kind of formulating his ideas and it was a short film.

Callum: As far as know, the Portobello Film Festival runs until the 21st of August as well as films there are other arts events, a variety of fantastic concerts, exhibitions and presentations. You want the festival to be more than just for film, don't you?

Jonathan Barnett: Yest what we want it to be is, we want it to be a bit like a kind of cross between Glastonbury festival and Edinburgh festival, but for free and set in Portobello Road.

Callum: We also hope it would become a big arts festival — amazing, unforgettable and a good start for young talents!

Speaker A

I think people should pay more attention to reusing materials. It's the best way to save our planet's resources. In fact, we don't have any other optuon if we plan to leave the planet for generations to come. For example, it's more environment-friendly to use linen napkins that can be washed and reused than to use paper products. It's also important to stop using dangerous chemicals that spoil our soil and drinking water.

Speaker B

My name is Stephen. I'm very worried about high urban pollution. This problem is actually global. Anyone who went to Beijing to watch the Olympic games can confirm it as Beijing was covered day and night by strong smog. The problem is that this smog in big industrial megapolises is not set to decrease, but instead it will increase over the coming years; this Will bring about pollution all over the world and will cause global warming!

Speaker C

I find the effect of water pollution an the ecological balance and human life really dramatic. Though there are many other things that are polluting water, oil is still the major contributor. There may be eases of large oil spills durmg transportation, but the fact is that small motor oil spills on land are far more dangerous. So it's important that we take measures in Lime to save our water environment.

Speaker D

My name is Barbara. I've only been "cleaning green" for over a year now. It was a difficult start. My daughter made me stop using toxic chemical products for cleaning by regularly telling me how I was poisoning our health, polluting the air in the house, damaging the planet and exposing my grandson oto all of the above. Now I like it a lot! I will never go back to chemical cleaners, not any more.

TMnoa,HE axaAMEHAUL,lOHHSlE BAPVIAHTSI

Speaker E

I support the idea of using Olily natural products for cleaning purposes, Of courae it's not easy. Changing from old habits to new healthy; non-toxic ones takes time and practice. It's like any bad habit, once it's been done we feel really good about ourselves. But we're not doing this for some unseen stranger. We're doing it for ourselves. Let's leave our planet in the best possible Shape we by all working out and following new rules together.

Speaker F

I think everyone can do their part to protect our planeL It's easier than you may think — do not litter and do not dispose your waste in the way that will harm people or animals. Always use the proper method for it. And it's really more useful to put out different bins for different waste materials like glass, plastic bottles. paper and tins. The bins are usually of different colours to be easily identified.

Jerry I'm planning on sleeping all day, every day:

Kutet Oh, come on, Jerry, you must be joking.

Jerry: Yeah, I'm just pulling your leg. Actually, I'm going to travel to Luxor in Egypt.

Kate: Really? Why would you go to Luxor but not to the Red Sea resorts? They're much more popular tourist sites.

Jerry: Exactly: They are very popular, so they'll be too crowded. What I need is peace and comfort. I enjoyed my last year trip to Paris to see the Eiffel Tower; but there were so many tourists there. I think it spoiled the atmosphere a bit.

Kate: I'm sure Luxor won't be so crowded. But won't it be too hot in the summer? Jerry: I'll bear anything for the sake of the views of this ancient Egyptian city. And rely on air conditioning inside — the hotel promises it works perfectly there.

e: 201'


Kate: Well, that sounds good. I wouldn't mind going there myself then. Still,  wonder is there anything worth seeing in Luxor?

Jerry: Sure! For one thing, there's the unique scenen•• of the city built directly on the Nile. I t m sure you've heard Of Luxor Temple. There are also the Egyptiun Pyramids which are said to be spectacular. They are a major tourist attraction, aren't they?

Kate: Of course, I have heard of the Pyramids, but won't you get bored just looking at them?

Jerry: Come on. Kate, there's lots of things to do. I can take a river cruise on the Nile, and I will visit some excavation Sites at Luxor it is very historical City With many ancient remains that are still amazing.

Kate: Well, when you describe it like that, it sounds really interesting:

Jerry; And not all. I'll be able to delicious, spicy food and enjoy swimming and sunbathing as they have a huge open-air swimming pool in the hotel.

Kate: I'm sure you'll have fun, Jerry, but let me ask you — you already reserved a room at the hotel you want? find last mmute bookings very disappointing.

Jerry: Don't worry, I'm very lucky. I've reserved a room at the Pyramid Luxor Hotel, the best five stars resort in the area. I've seen some pictures on the Internet, it's really nice!

Now we arc ready to start.

Presenter: With us in the Studio today we have James Smith, a psychologist from the University Of North Carolina. Good afternoon, James.

James Smith: Good afternoon. I am really glad to be taking part in this programme — it is a great honour for me.

Presenter% Thank you. The topic we have for today is familiar to everybody — this is our dreams. We all have dreams and are dreaming of our dreams coming true if I can put it that way! James knows exactly how to do it. Is that so, James?

James Smith: I think it is. One of the amazing things we have been given as humans is the desire to have dreams and the ability to establish goals to live out those dreams. What makes it even more powerful is our ability not only to dream and pursue those dreams but the cognitive ability to actually lay out a plan and strategies Lo achieve those dreams. The question is how to do it.

Presenter: Can you define what                                                 our dreams and goals?

James Smith: This is not what you already have or what you have done, but what you want. Have you ever taken time to think over your life values and decide what you really want? Have you ever truly reflected and listened quietly to your heart to see what dreams live within you? Your dreams are there. Everybody them. They may live right on the surface or be hidden deeply if you are often told sarcastically they are not serious but they are Still there,

Presenter: So how do we know what our dreams are?

James Smith: This is an interesting process and it relates primarily to the art of listening. This is not listening to others; it is listening to you. If we listen to others, we hear their plans and dreams and many of them will try to put their dreams and plans on us. If we listen to others, we can never be fulfilled. We will only chase elusive dreams. So we must listen to our own hearts.

Presenter: That seems easy and difficult at the same time. Do you know any practical steps on hearing from our hearts on what our dreams are?

James Smith; Firstly, take time to be quiet. This is something that we do not do enough in this busy world of ours. Schedule some dream time — no other people, no cell phone or computer. Just you, a pad and a pencil and your thoughts! Think about what thrills you, what you would love to do either for fun or for a living. When you answer these questions, you will find yourself in the "dream zone". Only when we get to this point, we will experience what our dreams are.

Presenter: Whut should we do ne*t?


James Smith: Secondly, write down all of your dreams as you have them. Do not think of any as too outlandish or foolish — remember, you are dreaming! Let the thoughts fly and take careful record. Then, prioritize those dreams. Which are most important? Which are most feasible? Which would you love to do the most? Put them in the order in which you will actually try to attain them. Remember, we are always moving toward action, not just dreaming.

Presenter: What if person does not find time to do all of this?

James Smith: Here is the big picture: life is too short and when it comes to the end, you can reflect on it either with joy or regret. Those who dream, who set goals and act on them to live out their dreams           those who live lives of joy and have a sense of peace.

Presenter: What is your final piece Of advice?

James Smith: Remember about the dreams and goals that are born out of your heart and mind. These are the goals that are unique to you and come from who you were created to be and gifted to become. Your specific goals are what you want to attain because they will make your life joyfult Presenter: Thank you, James. James Smith: My pleasure.

Now we are ready to start.

Speaker A


I'm trying to get back on track agam with healthy food. I've been really bad this couple of months, resulting in horrible weight gain. I still go to the gym times a week, but eat a lot of unhealthy snacks between meals. I somehow thought it's my reward for going to the gym, but it certainly made me gain more weight rather than lose it. I figure if I can replace my dinner with fruits, will achieve weight loss easily and in a healthy way. But the problem is, after the gym when I feel really hungry the first thmg I look for is something savoury.

Speaker B

My name is Jenna and I'm 17 years old. I'd never had weight issues until last year. I had problems that made me very depressed, SO I all the time and watched TV because I didn't want to leave the house. I know that's not an excuse for eating so unhealthily, but was in my own little world, you could say. I'm a very athletic person and I still have all my muscle, but I've just gained weight. I've decided to start my diet on Wednesday and work out Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays with one Of my friends.

Speaker C  am utterly frustrated at the moment. My weight is not moving in the right direction. Which is not surprising since I just can't resist food, especially unhealthy food. Like yesterday, I went to the supermarket and bought strawberries and grapes and apples only to go back 20 minutes later oto get a marble cake. I only ate two slices of it and it was all I had for dinner but still it makes me angry. Sometimes I feel it has be either all or nothing, I just know that eating nothing is not the right thing to do and that it won't help in the long run.

C 2015


Speaker D

I'm doing really well. 1 thought that when I came home from school I would balloon up, because my mom is an awesome cook and when I'm home I work two jobs and I am álways too tired to exercise. Plus, at school the gym is free and at home it most certainly is not. However, I've managed to stay at the same weight, and am at my lowest weight on my mom's scale! I eat around 1200-1400 calories a day so that my parents don't suspect anything, but I know they're impressed with my weight loss. I am too:

Speaker IE

My name is Bobbi. I'm a sophomore in college and live in the dorm. This is the first time I've experienced living on my own. So I can go to any grocery shop and get whatever I want or go out to eat whenever I want. I stopped being active after the swim season was over in my senior year of high school. My weight steadily increased since then because of my eatmg and exercise habits alone, I think. So I have asked my doctor recently to work out a special combination of diet and sport activities. I hope it will help.

Speaker F

I wish I could just kick the pounds away but alas, no way. I cannot starve myself, and also, I don't want to. Still, I want to lose weight, as fast as possible, of course.  thought I'd try to eat healthy food and exercise a lot but it's just so hard to come home and not plunder the fridge. Ifs so difficult change one's lifestyle. need some support and encouragement from somebody who understands how difficult it is to solve my problem.

Sally: I think it is the Mad His madness and playfulness helps me understand who I am or at least try to be as a person. What is your favourite passage from the book?

Susan: I love when the queen says "Sometimes I've believed in as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

Sally: My favourite passage is Alice'S conversation with herself She falls down the rabbit hole. It was in that moment that I really fell in love with the quaint little girl named Alice.

Susan: Do you think that the book has any undertones, or do you merely love it as it is, a book written in an eccentric and witty style, full of twisted adventures?

Sally: I would say there are many witty, eccentric, slightly twisted books out there. Of course I think there are undertones. There are so many undertones in fact that I'm afraid the Alice book may become too outdated and cryptic for taiay"g children.

Susan: Oh, no! I think of it as a contemporary book that can be enjoyed for years to come. I hope my children will read the same cherished copy I read and my mother read before me.

Sally: By the way, what is your favourite film Bdaptation of the Alice hook?

Susan: I am not as familigr with the film adaptations as I am with the novel and musical interpretations. I quite like a music video that a friend of mine has done to the song "White Rabbit", but I suppose my favourite Alice film is the Disney version.

Sally: Yes. I highly respect Walt Disney and his work, and I think the movie is well done, Though I much prefer the book itself, Disney was not afraid Lo add a little bit of himself to the film, which I respect him for.

Now we are ready to start.

Again, I'm not sure how this works in any other part of the world. At my university we have a student-elected body of representatives called "The Union". It is quasipolitical body, elected from the student body and meant to represent the student body as a whole. However, I have doubts about their ability to represent me, and any other mature student at that university.

Let me begin by saying that this year's President likes to be called "Gravy". The behavior of the Union on the whole reflects this level of maturity. This year ran for

the office, I promised someone that I would run. A random meeting with next year's President and a rant about how ineffectual I thought the Union was brought this about, and I must say, my mates gave me a lot of support. However, I did not make the effort to canvass, I did not want the position.

Yes, if more mature and experienced people do not join, What hope is there Of this body being more representative? should feel worse than I do about my lax efforts, but there is no way in the world I could sit in an office with these people without ranting and raving at them. How can a body of 19 and 20 year olds represent student body that ranges from 18 to 80? In the UK, more and more mature students are returnmg to study every yean If the body that is meant to represent them discusses issues like the ethics of every Single product in the Union shop, or whether not allowing Al-Queda to operate from the university is discrimination or not they are simply not represented. How can I present problems specific to a mature student to someone with little or no life experience themselves?

This became evident in a short time and I did not actually take any notice of the elections because these were not elections based on any kind of merit, but on how popular someone is, or how much attention they can draw to themselves during the elections by dressing up. When I see taxpayers' money wasted on these things (and yes, it is that money that is used) it makes me see red. The Union has a very important job to do, and unfortunately it does not do it very well at all. The Union would perform better as non-elected body where people with experiences of the issues and methods do the work, rather than young and inexperienced people who want nothing more than a jolly good time with their mates. and something to put on their CV.

I have overheard some people talking about this on occasions. They think that there is something wrong With the situation. In my opinion, there's definitely something wrong with it.

I never thought that this was what university would be about, I am there for a reason, Lo learn. sold my house to finance this degree, it is pretty major commitment for me, so of course I um going to take it seriously.

Speaker A

I think there is too much competition at work nowadays. Everybody ig longing for promotion and often trying to move on to a better in another company. On the contrary, teamwork aims at a company's accomplishments. When employees understand they can get ahead with their own company, they cooperate with colleagues and work more effectively to get better common and personal results.

Speaker B

It's very important to understand people around you. If you are a manager, you'd better take time and listen Co your colleagues, employees, face to face, if possible. Pay attention to non-verbal ways of communication, as appropriate gestures and eye contact can do more than even words of praise or criticismì The same piece of advice goes to employees. Explain to your management your decisions in detail and you'll get a reputation as a well-balanced person and career prospects.

Speaker C

I think it is difficult for men and women to work in the same space. Women are more creative and emotional whereas men are more logical and better organized. Women want to feel, men want to think. Any department, if it considers these differences, will be much better off with men and women working separately, without distracting each other, causing conflicts and misunderstandings.

Speaker D

What I dislike about some offices ig that there ig Loo much gossip there, It does not depend on who dominates there — men or women. Actually, men are sometimes even worset It gets on my nerves when people begm to discuss their manager, the


TVT10EblE GK3AMEHAUMOHHblE BAPViAHTb1

latest teambuilding activity or their domestic affairs. It distracts me and is simply unpleasant. TO create some personal space and, work effectively, I listen to

Speaker E

I think there should be a law for people nat to go to work if they are ill or upset. To work effectively is simply impossible if someone is coughing or wants to scream at you instead of listening to your requests or suggestions. Any manager must ensure that the office environment is calm and appropriate for work. TO introduce some relaxation techniques might be u good idea as well.

Speaker F

What is important in any office is that you get a clear explanation of what exactly to do from your management. There should not be any room for confusion or misinterpretation. If instructions can be understood as suggestions, there will not be any result. Instructions in the written form are simply perfect. If you are provided with details of a desirable result, this will be a key to completing the task successfully, I think.

Jackt Hello, Mary! You look great and you have a wonderful tan! What did you do at the weekend?

Mary: Hello, Jack. Well, my parents and I had a long drive to the countryside to Sherwood My father is very much interested in Robin Hood, you know. Then we had lunch in vintage inn in the summer garden. It was fantastic!

Jack: A vintage inn? What is that? Is it kind of a countryside pub?

Mary: Not really' Actually, there are g lot of them, close to many major sights in Great Britain. They may look village-like, but the standards of service are very high and the food is very tasty.

Jack: I don't find such places amusing. Besides, the prices there are usually huge. Mary: It is not cheap, I agree. At the same time, a lunch in London can be even more expensive indeed. Where else can you try a traditional pudding or delicious Cheddar Mash after all?

Jack: Still, 1 do not see any point in driving miles from London just to have a light lunch. What will you do there except gazing out of the window across a village green or a natural pond if you are lucky?

Mary; I cannot agree with you here, am afraid. Vintage inns are generally located in places worth visiting like stately homes or historic villages or any other tourist attractions and many are close to enchanting walks. It is not only about a meal! As for staying indoors, as I said, most vintage inns have their own gardens and they are ideal to have lunch in fine weather. Thai is where I got my tan anyway.

Jack: Well, you seem to have managed to persuade me. Next weekend I am going to Cardiff. Is there a vintage inn close?

Mary: There must be one, If you take a look at the map, you will certainly discover the closest vintage inn.

Jack It may turn out not as good as the one you visited last weekend, though.

Mary: According to the travel brochure, every vintage inn is different, but they are all the same. They may have different designs and menus, but all landlords and landladies share the same passion for good food and excellent service, believe mel

Jack: Ok, can you lend me the map? I am sure you took one in the inn you visited.

Mary: You know me well enough! I will bring it tomorrow, I promise. Jack: Thanks.

Presenter: With us in the studio today we have a girl from the famous Indian tribe — the Navaho. Could you please introduce yourself to the audience?

Helen: People call me Helen, though it is not my real name. All our names have special meanings; my original name for instance can be translated as *dewdrop' from my native language.

Presentel% That is a beautiful name indeed! Why would one change it?

Helen: You see I had Lo when I went to school. It was not easy for my teachers and classmates to pronounce it as our system — I mean the Navaho system — of vowel sounds is so much different for people around, which makes it problematic both for ear and tongue. The sound of my name was closest to Helen so I put up with that.

Presenter: When people hear your tribe name, they imagine Indian-style tents and horse riding without a saddle. Could you explam what your land and people are like?

Helen: Much about the life of modern Native Americans is not the same as stereotypes may make you believe. Our land is basically a desert, with proper houses scattered everywhere. We no longer live in our traditional teepees. They are only used

for religious meetings. We still ride horses as the land is very open. The people are nice and friendly. I live in a small community in New Mexico.

Presenter: Could you tell us about your family?

Helen: Well, mine is very large, with a lot of relatives spread all over the reservation, and some in different cities. I have three brothers, a sister and three sisters-in-law. I'm the youngest Of my family. However, it iB not a, not all our families are the same size. They used to be like ours, but not anymore.

Presenter: What is your lifestyle like?

Helen: Again, far from stereotypes. I go out with friends and wear clothes like an ordinary person — we only wear squaw dresses on certain occasions. I play all types of sports.

Presentee Do you feel that your traditions are being kept or have they been destroyed, as your people become more influenced by European culture?

Helen: In some families Navaho traditions are kept — they are in my family. Other families are being influenced by white culture, but I think it is wrong for a Navaho to be completely like a white person. Something truly authentic must remain.

Presenter: Is English your first language?


Helen: When WELS a child, I was taught both English and Navaho. Now I have partly forgotten the latter — I can understand almost anything but speaking or writing may create a problem for The elders understand language best.

Presenter: What do you do on an average weekend?

Helen: go to Farmington, the nearest large and go shopping, eat out* and then go to the movies. A great weekend would be going to the mall where I'd, hang out with friends.

Presenter: Have you traveled much? What is your favourite place?

Helen: Yes, I have traveled. My favourite place ig Connecticut. I would like to go overseas some day and see how people there, and What their lifestyle is like, Navaho people are hospitable and welcome travelers in our land too. Presenter: Thank you, Helen.

Now we are ready to start. Speaker A


We have a great variety of food available now, but think we should care a lot more about where our food comes from. I think it people started to buy local and went to farmers' markets, they would be amazed at how fresh and tasty everything is. Vegetables are the best choice when they are in season, and simple food can be easy to prepare.

Speaker B

There are still people who think that it costs more money than really does to eat well. It worries me that people are happy to spend thousands of dollars on car, but don't want to spend more than 2.50 on a chicken. We all need to be aware of what we are putting in our mouths but we seem to attach far more importance to clothes than food.

Speaker C

When I was a child we used to eat healthy food without thinking about it — you could rarely see preserved or processed food in stores. Big home-cooked family meals were central to my childhooc:L Nowadays, while some families have kept that tradition, generally we've lost a connection with food, and that makes me pessimistic about our eating habits.

Speaker D

No doubt there will always be people who prefer to eat out, and there is a place for ready-made meals, but 1 believe we've started to understand the advantages of simple local produce, and the harm of all these preservatives and chemicals in processed food. We are beginning to realize that freshly prepared ingredients, cooked simply, are much better than ready-made meals.

Speaker E

Growing your own produce is a fantastic way to get better food. You grow what you want and, when you dig it up, it's on the table an hour later. There are always things you can grow; even if you don't have a garden or a piece of land — herbs in a pot on your kitchen windowsill will make the difference in any dish you cook because they are so fresh.

Speaker F

We are able to buy much better food then ten years ago, but what is really missing is the culture of cooking at home. We have two generations af children who didn't stand at their parents' Shoulders and learn how to cook — and a few TV shows are not going to change that. Many children, especially in big cities, don't know what flour is Where milk comes

John: It used to be, but I think not anymore.

People have completely forgotten the that there was a time when this holiday was close to being forbidden — I guess it was in 1969.

Mary: That's sad, but you are próbably right. For example, have you heard that, according to the statistics, teachers receive the most Valentines, followed by kids, mothers and only then spouses or sweethearts?

John: This doesn't surprise me at all. Valentine's Day is probably the second largest card-sending holiday in the world.

Mary: Only the second? How come?

John: I think you are missing Christmas, aren't you? You know Hallmark employs 80 people every year to research the sales pattern of previous Valentines. That is big business for

Mary: Much depends on clever advertising; that's the fact. Do you know that in Japan after the successful campaign of a chocolate factory, women began to give men a box of sweets for Valentine's Day?

Presenter: With us in the studio today we have Steven Roberts, a world-recognized expert in teaching foreign languages, Good afternoon, Steven.

Steven Roberts: Good afternoon.

Steven, everybody wants to speak at least one foreign language. You are constantly in search of new effective ways of teaching a foreign language. What are the most modern ways of improving one's language skills independently?

Steven Roberts: There are many methods indeed, but the thing I am presently researching is using films as a teacher. Many people feel like watching the original version of a foreign movie they liked. What I offer is a unique educational programme accompanied by the original film in the original language with origmal subtitles. Our programme is run entirely in foreign language and instead of classics it introduces slang expressions, new vocabulary; modern grammar, listening comprehension practice as well as comments by native speakers to the audience.

Presenter: That sounds really innovative! Can you please tell us how this idea crossed your mind?

Steven Roberts; Well, when you start communicating with native speakers in a foreign language, you soon decide you fluent and you have almost accomplished your goal of true bilingualism. However, as soon as you wuteh a movie in a foreign language, you feel lost. Films are difficult to understand precisely because they arc so real world, at least from a linguistic perspective. This may make watching original films very frustrating even for advanced speakers of any language, but the fact remams that there is probably no better source of linguistic input than a good film, if, paradoxically, you could just understand what is being said.

Presenter: It seems to me though, not every learner may find this programme


Steven Roberts: True. Movies are a good tool for fluent students. They are ideal for those language learners who fall into the linguistic zone of frustrated fluency discussed earlier. They are designed for upper level learners for the simple reason that they will be most effective as learning tools if you can already understand the language well enough to generally hear where one word ends and another begins. For lower level students, like pre-intermediate or elementary, would advise to watch films, but not authentic, Of

Presenter: If a person cannot take part in your programme, but still wants to try using films in their studies, what could you recommend?

Steven Roberts: Find a group of like-minded people and start a film club! The goals of such a club can be to help maintain your language proficiency and to upgrade it as well to give you u chance to enjoy original movies! In 2002 1 developed a methodology called "Foreign Languages through Films and Media" which is a copyright and can be got in bookstores or via Internet and used for your club's shows. Apart from this inexpensive book and some DVDs you will not need anything — well, of course you will need place where to meet, watch films and discuss them.

Now we are ready to start. Speaker A

Right now I'm trying to find a way to regain a healthy lifestyle despite being busy. I've completely lost the athleticism that was large part ot my identity and I can't stand it any more. Now I'm trying to regain general fitness. So I've been biking to work (about 20 minutes) for two months now, trying to get more veggies and whole grain in my life, drinking lots of water, and I'm hoping to start walking more although right now I have to work a lot and usually feel too exhausted after work to do anything else.

Speaker B

My name is Katie, I'm 25 years old, and I started máking 8 conscious effort to develop healthy habits about a year ago. The first thing I did was give up smoking. My goals are mainly Lo exercise regularly, drink enough water, and eat fruits and veggies daily. I do keep track of what I eat with journaling although I'm not calorie counter, and I don't own scales or restrict myself in any way. I just want to be stronger and feel better through trying to meet those goals every day. Now I feel  can do it.

Speaker C

A year or so ago, I was in pretty good shape and paying a lot of attention to my health. slipped back into inactivity and unhealthy eating for various reasons. I miss what I had, but I've had a hard time finding the motivation to return to my usual healthy lifestyle. Spring is just arriving — sunny sky, warmer weather, longer days, green leaves peeking up from last season's dead grass. The improvement in the weather is lifting my spirits, so I've decided to take advantage of the extra energy and design for myself a spring fitness challenge.

Speaker D

I have just realised that at least six days out of seven, I do the amount of exercise that is recommended for those whose goal is a healthy lifestyle, just by walking during my daily routine. About three times a week, I do more, sometimes considerably more.

•t           201' era. nanoablE 3<3AMEHAUMOHHblE au.PVIAHTbl

Despite that, I often do myself down by telling people I don't exercise at all. I think some part of my brain still believes that because I'm doing it us part or my routine rather than going to any special effort, it can't be taken into account.

Speaker E

Hi! I'm Alex. I've had terribly unhealthy eating habits for the last few years. I never took much time to eat and ended up eating very few meals. I'm trying to develop healthier eating habits, and I wonder what would constitute a balanced meal. For breakfast I eat bowl of cereal and yogurt. Then grab five pieces of fruit I divide between lunch and dinner. It's more than I usually eat, but I know there's still a lot of room for improvement. At the same time I'm worried about going overboard, which can happen very easily for me.

Speaker F

I am 27 years old, and I come from a family of rather overweight people. I've been working to live a healthy and fit lifestyle since last December. Over the past three years, I've watched older relatives dealing with serious health problems, and it's been a wake up call for me to start taking of myself while I'm young and my state of health hasn't become worse. I'd like to start a family in the next couple of years, and it would be great to be able to keep up with my children as the years go by.

Mary: What had you been doing before you went to university?

Mike: I had been doing administrative work for 13 years, straight out of high school. I had got very tired and fed up with the low pay and the monotonous nature of the work. So I started university.

Mary: That's right decision, indeed. As for me, I went to university at more or less the normal age. I was actually 21 at the time. But did so miserably that the

•t 2CtS

university suggested that I not return. Smce then I've been basically wasting my time.

Mike: And what are your plans?

Mary: You see, one day I was fiddling around on the web and found some information about distance learning. It's fabulous if you can't take the time out to go to people-ridden classes, because you can work it around your own schedule.

Mike: Yes, think the fact that you can do the work in your own space and your own time is really helping.

Mary: Of course, I will have deadlines to meet, but they're not the same as the in-class sort. Handing things in doesn't depend on anyone else's office hours or class times, which is really handy. I will only have to contact my tutors when I want to or need to, or when I'm required to do an oral quiz or exam.

Mike: I think it'S very good idea. Going to university wag the best thing I have ever done. I found it was more fun than I expected, and the benefits outweighed the disadvantages. I learned so much about myself, and I'm very proud of my accomplishments!

Mary: And I expect my ability to study to be much better than it used to be and things come much more easily. While I still see doing some of the work as a chore, at least this time around I'm actually enjoying it.

Now we are ready to start.

I've lived in Denmark now for nearly four years, and I've changed lot within this time. I've become more fashionable, more cosmopolitan-minded, more ...Danish it I'm allowed to say that.

But one thing hasn't changed about me. And that is my inability to cooperate with or understand Danish supermarket culture. As someone who was raised predominantly in the United States, I've always been used to grocery stores with selection of food choices so huge that it's almost perverted. That and a high level of serviceì In an American grocery store, one can find a kind of product with a thousand different brandings and types. For example, let's take the flakes varieties: whole grain frosted flakes, or fat-free frosted flakes. Do I want my cream cheese with low, medium, or tull fat? Seedless watermelons or watermelons with seeds? That being said, when  walk into a Danish grocery store I want to burst into tears because I'm so bored with the selection. The variety of cereals consists of Cherrios, Honey•nut Cherrios,

and Wheaties. Coco-puffs if I'm lucky. There're few fruits and vegetables, most rotten. I'm telling you, everything is so boring and plain and demanding of hard kitchen labour that you just wish some American food companies could establish factories here and import some ready made dinners.

I know I should be ashamed Of saying this, but I do miss American convenience. In Denmark, making a homemade meal requires at least 30 dollars spent at the grocery store and 2 hours in the kitchen. For instance, at my locål grocery store, nothing is allowed to be under 4 dollars. That's right, it's called organic and healthy food, free of anything synthetic or  But I do miss synthetic food.

Oh yes, the whole Danish, "do-it-yourself" attitude prevails! Expect to stress while bagging all of your food, as no ong will do it for you.

The only way to really understand what I mean is Lo imagine that if you've come from America and you're used to certain things with service and product selection and then you move here — it truly is different in Denmark. And I've lived elsewhere in Europe (Iceland, England, Spain) and still find the grocery stores much better and with more selection in those countries.

However, how could anyone take me serious when I say, "I miss synthetic food"? That is purely attempting to be sarcastic, and I see that it is wrong and disgusting that American food is pumped up with so much erap. I really appreciate that in Denmark the food is free of everything artificial and it shows on Danes — most of them look healthy and fit here. But once in a while I miss the vastness of an American grocery store!

I want to add that I am Danish, was born in Denmark, lived here for 5 years as a child and then moved to America where I lived most of my life. I moved back here a few yeurs Ago and I love the country. I speak Danish. I'm not an immigrant in Denmark who is unsatisfied with way Of life and Who should move back to the States. I'm a student and of course it takes 2 hours to make a meal on my own.

Speaker A

Hi! What's your favourite book? A book that you love because it inspires you, or changed your life? What l t d like to do is go to a secondhand book store, pick up  book that maybe I have read or maybe I haven't, purchase it, read it, then leave it someplace else for someone else to find and read and pass on. I know lot Of times things like that don't work — people don't read them or pass them on. But oddly, I can't explam why, I have the urge to do it. Maybe this happens because I love books and want everyone to try them.

Speaker B

I enjoy one book very much. I have read it at least 20 times and it is always wonderful. Every time I read the novel as if I have no idea of what happens on its pages and I never bored with it. It is truly a success story about a woman who managed to do well despite her poor environment. Sometimes the author becomes a bit wordy but it is a stunning mevnoir. I adore reading memoirs such gg these about strong people who endure and do well despite their circumstances. They teach us to be strong and to resist any problems.

Speaker C

I've been reading "Bleak House" for some time now, over a month l t d estimate, and probably closer to 6 weeks. I'm half way through, and I find it difficult to enjoy. Dickens's convoluted way of getting to the point seems little mollified by the beautiful language, and although the dialogue is thoroughly enjoyable, I can't help but want to explore other books. This is my first time reading Dickens but I remember feeling this way to a much lesser extent with some other books which didn't have the lure of language to keep me interested.

Speaker D

At a message board I go to they've been polling to see what books everyone has read. The participants are mostly 18 to 22 year old guys who play video games and like reading, so whole thing is slanted towards high-school  stuff and sci•fi/fantasy. Not exactly scientific or representative of your average American, but still somewhat interesting. I wonder to what extent books can keep young people interested in other parts of the world and if their preferences vary to a greater degree.

Speaker E

I'm going to make a trip to the used bookstore to get rid of some books I have and probably pick some books up at the same time. The problem is, I'm awful at trying to figure out what books to get rid Of. I have tnatiÿ books that I've read and probably won't reread but I have a hard time getting rid of them because the majority of them are hardback and they cost a lot. The worst ones are books that I haven't finished but promised to get back to and I think I never will. I'm good at convincing myself to keep books at home.

Speaker F

This might seem a little weird and hard for me to explain, but bear with me. I was checking out movies and books with philosophical concepts, and I came across a list with existentialist concepts. I realized that I've seen or read, and enjoyed, most Of the stuff on the list. I've already read "Crime and Punishment" by Dostoevsky and find it deep philosophical book really makes you think when you read What looking for now are books that can explam in a simple way what the basics of existentialism are.

Tom: I was an exchange student in Denmark in 2005 and hnd an absolutely awfúl experience with any host family and my school. They weren't the friendliest of people.

Jack: Oh really? Well, with me there were things that made me a bit sad but in general I enjoyed being there. Yes, I know, people can seem a little cold and, yes, even rude.

Tom: That's it. And in my very first week I got insulted by a bus driver when I was trying to clip my card. Of course it can happen anywhere, but it was a bit sad that no one batted an eyelid.

Jack: It's something I experienced as well, to be honest, but Scandinavians seem to be very sensitive underneath the shell. The harder the shell is, it seems, the more fragile underneath. It's a new set of social rules we need to learn, I guess, when we go to a different country.

Tom: You're right, of course. And despite all my problems, I miss Denmark so much, it's like having a constant stomachache.

Jack: 1 know what you mean. There are things that I really love there. First, the tap water is drinkable. Then the Metro is gorgeous. It's a pleasure to go by train, as the trains are cute inside.

Tom: What is more, the sky is often starry, because there's little pollution. The air is pretty good. The thing is, I haven't been happy since I returned home to the States. I've gotten to the point that I consider myself more Danish than 1 do American. But I wonder if it will be difficult to make new friends.

Jack: I have friends who live there now who say it's quite hard to make friends or get into their circle. But, I think, it depends.

Tom: Ideally I plan to move in January. Yes, I know it's the coldest month but if I don't do it then, I'll get all wrapped up in our city's big spring festival and then the football season begins, then my birthday you get the idea — and never . Jack: Yes, and this will also give you enough time to get a visa.

Now we are ready to start.

Today I bought "The Ecological Calendar" that has peculiar formatting on its title. The calendar is apparently available in a few different formats. The one I've bought is a weekly planner for 2007, although it starts at the Winter Solstice, so it includes part of December too. It's partly in the standard Gregorian format, so I don't have to worry about making mistakes in it that take away from its usefulness. In 1997, I had a weekly planner where the week started with Monday instead of Sunday, as it does in some countries, and that little change caused a lot of havoc in any kind of scheduling that I tried to do,

However, it pairs the usual Gregorian calendar with a lot of information about the astronomical and seasonal changes that are happening at that time of year, so that you get the feeling of being connected to the grand eyeles of nature. What the plants


and animals are doing, when you can look for meteor showers, that sort of thing; it's quite detailed.

This calendar concept is the one that is dear to me. It's part of what I was trying to accomplish when I was working on my own calendar project called "The Book of Days", which was supposed to give a sense of the passage of time so that egeh part of the year is meaningfål. It would describe the patterns common among all cultures such as the psychological need for relief from the darkest part of winter, and most cultures say that the veil between our world and the other world is thinner at a certain time of the year, even though they don't all agree on when that is. It would tell about the cycles in nature such as seasons, and any light-hearted contemporary events such as Rabbit Hole Day. It didn't just list events, it drew connections between them so that. you can get a feel for the significance of the current time.


However, "The Book of Days" was a very time-consuming thing to try and work on every day. I'd hoped that it would become a voluntary group project and thus would lessen the load of each contributing individual, but other people seemed to lack interest. I managed it for several months, but it was too much for one person to manage alone. Eventually had to let them go off it for more important projects.  still want to see something like "The Book of Days". That's why I'm so glad to see that someone else has executed a similar project, "The Ecological Calendar".

I also like the idea Of redefining the scope Of time that we perceive that I have found in "The Clock of The Long Now", a book I'm in the middle of reading and which has already made a huge impressuan on me. That book argues that we need to expand our coneept of time which looks not only at the present, back into the past and into the future at least century each, but which encourages to learn from the past as well as consider our impact on future generations.

So for 2007, I'll be completely redefining my perception of time to make it more meaningful, although that's something I've been working on for a while now, since calendars fascinate me.

Speaker A


What is something really troubles me? Well, like everyone else these days I worry about earning enough to pay my monthly bills, my rent and all the other current living expenses. want to be secure for the future and make sure will have everything I need and maybe start saving some money. I am so afraid of losing everything I own.

Speaker B

What do I worry about? Oh, a lot of different things — money, politics, the weather, But my greatest concern is my mum and dad. I have a good job with a foreign firm and I am living overseas at the moment. I am so worried about them. I'm afraid they won't be able to deal with all their problems. If anything happens to them when I'm away, I won't be able to come back home quickly enough to help.

Speaker C

I think my biggest worry today is my career. 26 and spent the last few years travelling. Most of my university friends have settled down. They work hard and have made good start to their careers. So I began to worry that when I go back home I will be too old for companies to want me. What shall I do then? That's a tough question. I do not want to be unemployed.

Speaker D

Every time I look in the mirror I feel nervous. am afraid of getting fat ag I love pizza and hamburgers. I like shopping lot and always buy sweets. I know I shouldn't, but I can't help it. Like any other woman in her thirties, I am really afraid of gaining extra kilograms,

But I just can't say "no" to cakes and sweets. Who can?t

Speaker E

What am I afraid of? Well, recently I visited a friend of mine in Shanghai and she made a comment that I thought was very interesting. She said I look as though I have plenty of money. I don't, but compared to ordinary people in the street I look like I have a lot Of money. I am really afraid Of thinking that I have a lot of money and trying to rob me, especially if they have a gun. I have a little bit of paranoia about guns and robbers.

Speaker F

I guess I worry about the usual things, like getting in shape for the summer or being healthy and fit. I think being healthy is the most important thing. So I exercise regularly and watch what I eat. You know it's all about getting the right amount of vitamins, minerals, and fibre. I need this body to last at least another fifty

Sabrina: Hi, Fred. This is almost the end of the year, so tell met how was your year?

Fred: Oh, I've experienced a lot and undertaken lot of new responsibilities. I'd say my life has changed fundamentally. I became a father and I feel proud and happy about that. I also tried a new job in the construction business. And, you know, I Look part in a very unusual project — it was not connected with finance or business. But it was very rewarding.

Sabrina: What was it?

Fred: I tried working With children, actually, it was amazing.

Sabrina: What was it exactly that you did when you worked with children?

Fred: Basically, it was in a rehabilitation center for disabled children. I spent two days a week with them — actually I attended classes with them and just played with them, interacted with them during the day and supervised their weekend activities.

Sabrina: Oh, that sounds really great.

Fred: Yes. It was the first time I had done something like that. It was quite challenging because was a bit afraid at first. I wasn't sure how to treat them.

I wasn't sure what exactly I should do. There was something about those children that made them different. One minute they were depressed and the next they became very excited. But the instructors were very nice and they explained that, you know, I had to be myself and treat them like any other children, like normal children, and that's what I tried my best to do.

Sabrina: So you must have learned so much. It probably changed your attitude to a lot of things.

Fred: Yes, it has. It has really changed me because I have more patience now, Earlier, I mean, I used to be quite stubborn and used to make decisions irrationally, But now I've calmed down and I always question myself before doing something, so I think, in that way I've completely changed.

Sabrina: Could you say that what you've learned through your experience of working with children bus also helped you in other areas of your life?

Fred: Apart from developing a more patient side, I've mastered some nursing skills. You know, now I know how to take care of my baby son.

Sabrina: OK, I feel that I can learn a lot from you and maybe I should do the same thing — become more rounded person.

Fred: You should.

Sabrina: Well, Fred. I'm just curious. What is it like being a father?


Fred: Ah, right. I think I should talk about what it like not being a father, being me and not being a father, I was a very lazy person. I was an incredible time waster. I would have all this free time to make use of and I would probably just sit in front of TV, or I'd probably go to a Plib — I loved spending time with my friends in the warm and friendly atmosphere of a pub. Anyway, I took time for granted. I had so much of it. Once I became a father, suddenly my time disappeared but strangely enough, it taught me to appreciate the time I have. My time is very limited now. I am lot busier at work and I have more responsibilities than ever before. I also have to help my wife at home and make time for charity activities. I actually make much more use of my time now than ever before. And I still go Lo the sports centre and play paint ball with my friends.

Sabrina: Yeah, so when you first have a kid do you lose a lot of sleep?

Fred: Well, something that carried over from my previous lifestyle was an ability to sleep very well whatever the circumstances and, um, fortunately I have a very understanding wife so if the child wakes up during the night, she looks after him and doesn't wake me up. I have to work hard during the day and need some rest, least at night. I am never home before 8 in the evening. Anyway, I'm such a good sleeper even if he cried for hours, it wouldn't wake me up. I don't think there are many fathers like me. I've spoken to some other fathers and they don't have the same talent as I do.

Sabrina: What lucky man you are!

Now we are ready to start. Speaker A


Perhaps the greatest problem that people have today is lack of free time. Whether they work or study, people always seem have too much to do and too little time to manage it all. The harder they work the more they still have to do. Most people simply react to what is happening around them instead of prioritizing. It's important to decide which task you should do first, and which can wait and come next. This is a key to good time management.

Speaker B

What is important in time management is finding harmony. In your weekly schedule there must be some time for studies, communicating With relatives and friends, sport, hobbies and so on. Calculate how much time you've spent on each sphere of your life weekly• Buying diary may be of great help in dividing your time more efficiently.

Speaker C

Time is the most valuable thing you have. What's interesting — it can't be saved — all work demands time. So rngnuging time is a core skill upon which everything else in life depends, During different periods of your life, set different big goals and priorities. Right now the top one is education. Later there will be other important ones. But each time choose and concentrate on one particular thing that is crucial at the moment!

Speaker D

In your daily life there are so many demands on your time trom other people that very little of your time can be used as you choose. Preparing for test, meetmg a deadline with a project can distract you from your personal goals. Have you watched that film you have been interested in for weeks? Have you had long chat with your granny over the phone? In other words do you find time for doing what you want to do? If not, you should probably reconsider your time management.


Speaker E

I have read in a book on time management that hard time always pushes out soft time. This means that if you didn't do something because you didn't use your time well, you take the necessary time from another activity important for you and this may irritate you. So concentrate on any work you are doing and do not waste minutes. When you work — work hard but play hard

Speaker F

Many people believe time is not a resource as it only exists in our mind. But I consider time an important resource. It's pity it's wasted because we do not think about our biological rhythm. Why should we all go to school at 8 AM? There are so many people who can really take in information only after lunch! The same activity ran take you two hours in the morning and just about half an hour in the evening or vice versa! I always try to use thig important concept.

Kelly: Hey, Peter, why don't we go to the cinema together over the weekend?

Peter: I don't like cinemas. There are crowds of people with pop corn and soda, and mobile phones will go off every now and then. It is difficult to concentrate. I would rather rent a DVD.

Kelly: Good idea! Let's watch this new Indian film which was released last month, Do you like Indian films?

Peter: I have never watched single Bollywood film before so I really do not know. I hear they are very long and boring.

Kelly: will agree with you about the length but this is because of the amount of the song material. Besides, it is a cultural thing — when Indians go out for an evening's entertainment, they want saga, a drama, a life story — all in one and with some comical episodes as well. It is problematic to put all these aspects into 90 minutes, you know.

Peter: I see. Well, guess singing and dancing must be a great strength of Indian commercial cinema, When actors show extreme emotions, just facial expressions may not be enough.

Kelly: Exactly. Songs and dances make the message loud and clear. Of course, it's not real — after all, who breaks out in synchronized dances with many extras when one is happy? But this is a characteristic Of Indian cinema.

Peter: What is the mam theme of Indian films?

Kelly; Well, India cannot be considered a rich country but movies show an image of the upper-middle or rich classes. Most Indian people live a life which is completely different from what is there on the screen. This makes these films so attractive und bright.

Peter: How odd!

Kelly; I say, Peter, you mentioned "Bollywood films". What do you mean?

Peter: Don't you know? It is one of the largest film producers in the world three films a day are finished there, which makes it about a 1000 films a year — can you imagine? The name is a combination of Bombay where the studio is situated and Hollywood.

For almost three years, I've been on call as a British Red Cross aid worker. The phone rings and — sometimes within 48 hours — I'm on a flight to wherever my skills are needed most. For up to SIX months Of every year, I'm on the other Side Of the world, working in desperate situations. Meanwhile, home alone in the Catswolds, my husband Julian copes heroically with a sudden switch to life as a single dad to Rowan, who is 11, and Finnian, who is seven, and Orla, six.

Although I try never to be awny for longer than five weeks, that is still a painfully long time to be separated from them all, and I know it's very hard on them too. Julian does a fantastic job on his own with them — while holding down a job as a computer scientist — but five weeks is as long as any of us can manage, practically and emotionally.

At the most recent school parents' evening, Orla's teacher took me to one side and said that she had been very withdrawn during my last stint in Haiti. thought felt as guilty as it was possible to feel about it, but at that moment my heart sank to a new low,

Presenter: so, how do you feel about it?

Sharon: I do feel guilty about leaving them, about not being there and not talking to them every day.

Presenter: Then why do you do it to them, and to your poor husband, and yourself? Sharon: The answer is because I have no doubt — on all but the most exhausting days in the field — that the benefits to us all far outweigh the downsides.

After my family, aid work is what I urn most passionate about. I have a degree in development studies and Masters in irrigation, and soon as I graduated I started working abroad, But then, later in my twenties, I met Julian and realised that I wanted to have a family, I decided I'd better switch from aid work to teaching, to make it possible. I taught for a short while but my heart was never in it. When Rowan, our eldest was about one, I got a job with the British government in Botswana, so we moved there as family for a year.

With just one, very small, child, it was possible to live that life. But as our second and third children came along, I felt as though I had to accept that aid work and motherhood simply don't mix. I was unemployed for a number of years and although I loved being a mum, I felt that having lost my work I'd lost a really big part of who


I was,

Was it easy, to find yourself again?

Sharon: Well, even if you're keen to return to the field, as a woman with children it's very hard to find agencies willing to take you on. The job requires the kind of flexibility and commitment a lot 0t men and women With families would struggle to meet. But Julian saw how important it was for me to get back to doing what I do. I was qualified to do Lit and, until I became a mother I had relished the challenges that every assignment threw ut me,

He saw the effect that not being able to do it was having on me. It changed me. My confidence was sapped and I felt so frustrated. Thankfully, he didn't want having had kids to cut me off from such an Important part of my life. We didn't want to set that example for the kids. He wanted to find a way to make it work, and without his support it just wouldn't have been possible. you have 15 seconds to complete the task. (Pause 15 seconds,)

Speaker A

I love readingì I read detective and spy stories, novels, and romantic and fantasy stories. If I'm stuck on train or waiting for something and don't have anything to read, I feel terrible. So something that I spend a lot of money on would probably be books. I always buy a lot of books, magazmes and reader's digests. And I keep all of them at home — my mum says it's horrible. Also lots of my money goes on audio books. I always share them with friends. Em.„ it's kind of an exchange.

Speaker B

Oh, you know, shiny things really attract me. Every time I have some extra money,  buy bracelets, rings, earrings or necklaces. I wear them everywhere and every day. If I'm shopping somewhere and there is something flashy shining at me, I usually stop and look and very often a salesperson can talk me into buying it. It's crazy I know. I also love buying books but I don't spend so much on them. Speaker C

Ah, spend money mostly on um... going out, like going to restaurants or clubs, and things like that. I am a party person, love hanging out with friends. I don't actually buy a lot of things, like electronics, books or CDs. I just spend money on going out with my friends, on food and drinks for parties. I really love chatting, dancing and making jokes.

Speaker D

Something I probably spend too much on is clothes. guess because am a girl,  think of shopping as a fun pastime and I find it relaxing. Actually I call it •shopping therapy' to go and buy some new clothes. I often go alone — I don't need anyone to advise me. I'd say I love the process of choosing and buying things. It really makes me feel good.

Speaker E

If I had the money I wanted, I would like to go and spend two weeks at every famous place on Earth. I love traveling in comfort, Nowadays it's very expensive. I read travel magazines and surf the Internet for information about different tours, hotels and sights — and now I know how I want to travel. That's what I'd spend my money on if I could.

Speaker F

I usually don't spend that money on anything like jewellery or clothes. But then if there is one big expense, it is food. like desserts, especially ice cream, so when I go out for dinner I definitely have a dessert afterwards. I can't live without cakes, candies, chocolates and things like that. Who can?

Now we are ready to start.

Int: Today in the studio we are talking to Ben Zephani, an activist and member of the environmental group the Green Belt Movement in Kenya. Welcome Ben.

Ben: Thank you.

Int: Well, you know, people nowadays talk a lot about environmental issues. There is great concern about wildlife and the future of the National Parks in Kenya. What's happening there?

Ben: One of the most serious environmental problems we are facing today ig deforestation, which really affects both wildlife and people living around the forests. People need land for their own purposes, like growing crops and raising cattle. So they come, seize pieces of land, cut down trees and start cultivating the land. So


many animals were, kind of, forced away' They had to leave their native habitats and find new hunting areas... That's not really a nice thing.

Int: And what's happening to the people who actually live around the forest area? Ben: You know when you tend to interfere in a wild animal's habitat you somehow create an imbalance between people and animals. And sometimes it'S not really a nice thing because animals tend to come close to where people live, which is really threatening.

Intt So, do they attack people?

Bent Not that they really attack settlements but they do come in paekg, groups, prides or herds constantly migrating from one place to another because of deforestation. so people are vulnerable at any time.

Int: You mean, if I lived there, I could be chased by an angry rhinoceros or an elephant?

Bent No, actually they don't chase people because most of the time they just pass by. But at times you come into contact with an unusual animal. You know animals live in packs, so when one animal ig rejected from its pack, it'S an angry animal. It cannot join the other packs so it attacks anything and is extremely dangerous. It should not be disturbed. People can do nothing to help it. Anyone who dares to approach it is certainly doomed.

Int: Wow! Sounds horrible! I suppose no one would dare to try to catch these wild animals... Well, but what actually causes deforestation?


Ben: People burn wood to produce charcoal and sell it, because, as you know, people there have very poor living conditions, and they try hard to earn an extra dime to support their families. Charcoal is in great demand for cooking and other odd jobs, so people don't even have to travel anywhere to sell it. It's 8 good job. But it's so destructive.

Int: So what's being done to try and remedy this, or to try and counterbalance the effect?

Ben: There are three or four large activist groups that are coming together to discuss how to reduce damage to the environment. You all know the Nobel Prize winner Wanggri MaaLhai who is a leader of the Green Belt Movement in Kenya, She's been trying to discourage people from destroying forests for a long time and to explain what deforestation does to country and the environment in general and how it affects people in the forest areas. She teaches people to adjust to new conditions and environments. She moves with the times. Wangari supports National parks, conservation areas and safari parks in the country. She helps organize small businesses to learn to earn from ecotourism in the forest areas.

Int: Look, I've always wanted to go to Africa and I'm just wondering, if that whole safari business ...is really good; if everything you see on the BBC Wildlife channel, you know, documentaries, is true to life.

Ben: It's not a cliché, but it's something you have to experience when you get there on safari. The BBC has never lied to their viewers.

Int: Wow: So I could be just out there driving around in my car and on my own just seeing all those animals?

Ben: I am afraid they won't let you drive in your own car. They provide services for you. We have in Kenya un institute called the K WS: the Kenya Wildlife Service and it hag its own wardens that are highly trained to protect you when you're in the forest. You just say where and when you want to go, what places and animals you

would like to see. Tours are kind of regulated. For example, you will never be allowed to come close to feeding the animals. All right.

Speaker A

My cat is rather special. She understands perfectly well when I ask her to come and sit with me, but she can pretend that she doesn't hear. And she always knows which of the people that I invite to my home are okay and which ones aren't. And when I have a headache in the evening she comes and sleeps over my head. I sometimes ask myself how she knows that I have a headache.

Speaker B

When I was years old, my mum found a kitten in the street and brought it home. so, the kitten and I grew up together! I remember that every night the cat would scratch at rny door and let her in. She waited for me to come home from school to be with her and liked watching me, as I was doing my homework. She lived 8 years. And she was truly my cat. I really miss her much.

Speaker C

The thing I love about cats is the way they look. Their eyes are big and the colour is deep — blue like Sky, green like leaves or brown like amber. Their fur can be long or short, and if you treat your cat well, its fur will look shiny and rich. I haven't seen a combination of colours that looked bad on cats — black and white, gray and white, orange and white — they all look perfect.

Speaker D

The best thing about cats is that they're wonderful to talk to when you're sad or angry and you can't control your emotions. Cats won't talk back while you are talking to them, and will listen intently. They make me laugh when I'm in a bad mood, they comfort me when I'm sick. And when I'm happy they start playing with me and we all have lots Of fun.

Speaker E

Although I have had many cats, ror everyone Of them there is a reason why we found each other. Now have three cats. One of them is the boss of my other cats. The second one is very smart and likes open doors. And the third one thinks that the world turns around her and she is very proud of herself. All of my cats are very  to me because each of them has her or his own character. They are great part of my life:

Speaker F


What like about cats is that they can take care of themselves. You don't have to take cat out for a walk several times a day, You don't need to wash them too often, because they clean themselves, Cats can play on their own and don't require too much of your attention. They can spend most of the time sleeping. And they even can get their own food by catching mice and spiders.

Philip: It does... I called the company. They already know about the electrical problem. A tree fell onto a power line on the next street. People from nearby houses called them. They don't know how long the lights will be out.

Interviewer; With us today is Cynthia Barnes, a travel writer. Cynthia, how did you happen to become a travel writer? Let's start with a bit of history. Tell us about your childhood.

Cynthia: I grew up in a small town in the state of Arkansas with kids who had never been to any other places and who desperately wanted to see the world. They used to invent adventures for themselves in order to make up for the monotony of their real life. But I was lucky. My mom used to go on business trips to the neighbouring states and once in a while she took me with her' They were real

nPWIO*EHVlq

adventures and, I delighted but it had always been my dream Co go to the far Off countries I had read about in the 'National Geographic' magazines. There were piles of them in dad's Study as well unlimited supply Of books about explorations and adventures.

Interviewer: What do you usually feel before you set out on a journey?

Cynthia: I remember when I was little the night before we'd leave for a trip I had an absolutely unforgettable feeling — that 'can't•sleep, butterfly feeling'. I couldn't wgit to go, It'S Still With me today.

Interviewer: And how did you get started writing?

Cynthia: I have alwgyg been writing. I even won Daughters Of the American Revolution poetry contest in the fifth grade, and they gave me a fifty dollar saving bond. It was a, childish little poem that. began; 'Our nation, it was founded by brave people long ago Then I moved to Columbia and fell in with a group of writers... Actually after school, all my jobs eventually were about producing newsletters, correcting ads, rewriting bad brochures. I've always kept journals, written letters, played around with personal essays. I never stopped writing, can't do without it. It's in my blood.

Interviewer: You spend most of your life travelling. What do you do when you don't travel?

Cynthia; If I don't travel, I write. But I don't stop travelling, to be honest. I travel everywhere at any time and in any possible way: by car, by plane, by horse or camel, by canoe or simply on foot.


Interviewer: Is it the major challenge for you as a travel writer?

Cynthia: Well, you see, travelling is a great pleasure and a thrill for me although some of my friends find it tiring to be constantly away from home for a long time,  like meeting new people, hearing their stories, tasting their food. But writers need time alone to reflect what they have seen, what they have heard. And that's where the problem lies. In a story, a lot depends on whether you can balance your own solitary exploration and other people' stories. When you're with others, you're distracted. But when you're by yourself, you have only your own impressions and observations and they can be misleading.

Interviewer: What was the most thrilling experience you had as a traveller?

Cynthia: It was an incredible expedition together with two adventurous travellers. We went to the rainforest in New Guinea, the most remote forest on Earth, We trekked across the island and lived with the local tribe. They are hunters, they live in total isolation from rest Of the world. Their only tools are Stone axes and arrows. To survive in the jungle with them was a hard-core challenge. We had to learn how to eat insects as we simply couldn't hunt even small wild animals the way they do. But in tact the biggest challenge was to establish contacts with the local tribe. You see, when we arrived, they met us with arrows, which they pointed at our heads very aggressively. It wasn't the kind of greeting we were used to, We didn't know g word in their language to speak to them, to ask them what all these rituals meant. We had to learn all this stuff to survive, to watch our gestures and tone of voice or would dig in the jungle.

Interviewer: What advice would you give to someone Who is considering going into travel writing?

Cynthia: It's great work... but it's work. It's also an obligation. You are in charge of what you write. Maybe your reader will never go to a place you're writing about


but he has always dreamt about it. Don't sell yourself or your observations short. And never ever trade your stories for TV clips. Writing is not about bargaining or getting profits. Telling stories about travel ig an honorable profession. Mark Twain was a travel writer. So was Hemingway.

Interviewer: What is the biggest reward of life as a travel writer?

Cynthia: I sometimes go to luxury resorts to write stories about the area. Of course I'm kidding (laughs). You see, I've watched the sunrise on the Pacific coast and seen the Grand Canyon under g full moon. I saw fascinating sights in these places, the views. But most valuable is the incredible generosity and the spirit of the people I've met on my routes. It's the biggest blessing to have a glimpse into their lives. This is what makes me stay in my business.

Пбрядок определения процента  совпадений в задании 40

При оценивании задания 40 особое внимание уделяется способности экзаменуемого продуцировать развёрнутое письменное высказывание.

ТЕМАТИЧЕСКИЕ

Текстуальным совпадением считается дословное совпадение отрезка письменной речи длиной 10 слов и более.

Выявленные текстуальные совпадения суммируются и при превышении ИМИ .30% общего числа слов в ответе, работа оценивается в 0 баллов.

Порядок подсчёта слов в задаииях раздеда «Письмо»

При оценивании заданий раздела •Письмо• (39—40) следует учитывать ТЦКОЙ параметр, как объём письменного текста, выраженный в количестве слов. Требуемый объём для личного письма (задание 39) 100—140 слов; для развернутого письменного высказывания (задание 40) — 200—250 слов. Допустимое отклонение от заданного объёма составляет Если в выполненном задании 39 менее 90 слов или в задании 40 менее 180 слов, то задание проверке не подлежит и оценивается в О баллов. При превышении объёма более чем на 100,6, т. е. если в выполненном задании 39 более 154 елов или в задании 40 более 275 слов, проверке подлежит только та часть работы, которая соответствует требуемому объёму. Таким образом, при проверке задания 39 отсчитываются от начала работы 140 слов, задииия 40 — 250 слов и оценивается только эта часть работы.

При определении СООТВетгтвия объёма предетивленной работы вышеуказанным требованиям считаются все слова, начиная с первого слова по последнее, включая вспомогательные глаголы, предлоги, артикли, частицы. В личном письме адрес, дата, подпись также подлежат подсчёту. При атом:

— стяжённые (краткие) формы can•t, didn•t, isa't, и т. п. считаются как одно слово;

— числительные, выраженные цифрами, т. е. 1, 25, 2009, 126 204 и т. п., считаются как одно слово;  числительные, выраженные цифрами, вместе с условным обозначением процентов, т.е. 25%, 100 0,4 и т.п., считаются как одно слово;  числительные, выраженные словИми, считаются как слова;
