It was the first day at school. It was nine o’clock. All the pupils were in the classroom. They knew they had a new teacher — Miss Chatter.

After the bell Miss Chatter came into the room. She was kind and nice.

“Good morning, children,” she said and smiled. The lesson began. But the pupils didn’t do what their new teacher said. They spoke loudly and ran in the classroom.

Suddenly it became dark and very cold for a minute.

The pupils sat still at their desks and looked at Miss Chatter.

Their new teacher took Oliver’s pen, looked at it and said: “Three, two, one!” The blue pen became red and turned into a nice red umbrella. Miss Chatter took the umbrella and touched Oliver’s chair. The chairs began to dance with the children sitting on them. Oliver was happy. All pupils laughed. Soon all the chairs and the pupils danced in the classroom.

Miss Chatter opened the umbrella and the rain of sweets began. The pupils were surprised but happy. “It’s great!” Oliver said.

In the second lesson Miss Chatter and her pupils counted white rabbits and black kittens

in the classroom, read stories about whales, talked with the goldfish. Children answered her questions, drew on the walls of the classroom and learned funny poems by heart. The pupils had a good time. They enjoyed Miss Chatter’s lessons.

The next morning Oliver, Ann and their classmates ran to school. But there was a different teacher in the classroom — a new teacher.

“Where’s Miss Chatter?” asked Ann.

“Who?”

“Our teacher — Miss Chatter!” answered Oliver.

“I don’t know Miss Chatter. Let’s begin our lesson,” said the new teacher.

The children were sad. But Oliver saw Miss Chatter’s red umbrella in the left corner of the classroom. He smiled.

Laura and Catherine didn’t want to go camping. They didn’t want to sleep in a tent, or eat roots or drink dirty water from a river. All they wanted was to be home in their nice warm beds, with no bugs, wild animals, or dirt on the ground. But they had to walk along the forest path together with their mum and dad. They had crossed a river and now their socks and shoes were wet. It was terrible! They were so tired, they wanted to eat and sleep.

At last, they stopped for the night. Dad set up the tents and made a fire, then he caught some fish in the river for supper. The sisters didn’t like fish very' much but they had to eat it because they were very hungry. After supper, the girls pulled their wet clothes off, and put on their nice clean pyjamas.

“Mum, it’s uncomfortable to sleep in a tent,” said Laura.

The girls wanted to fall asleep but they couldn’t.

“What’s that noise?” Catherine asked.

“HOO! HOO! HOO!”

“EEEEEEEP screamed the two sisters. Mum and Dad jumped out of their tent. “There’s a monster in that tree!” screamed Laura.

Dad laughed. “It’s only an owl. Now go back to sleep, please!”

“CROAK! CROAK! CROAK!”

“EEEEEEE!” screamed the girls.

“That’s just a frog. It won’t hurt you. Please go to sleep, girls'!” Mum said.

Later that night, Laura woke up again. She looked outside the tent and saw a big shadow. She screamed again, “EEEEEEE! Dad! Help!”

“Girls, it’s only me,” Mum said. “It was cold so I went to get another blanket  out of my backpack.”

The next morning, the girls felt a little silly about the night before.

“We’re sorry, Mum, Dad. We were like babies,” said the sisters.

“It’s all right, girls,” Dad said. “At least tonight you won’t be scared because you know what those noises are.”

They hiked a long way that day and were tired. The girls happily dimed into their tent and dad wished everyone “good night”.

“HISSSSSSSSS!”

“ЕЕЕЕЕЕГ screamed the girls.

Dad looked at Mum and sighed, “Here we go again!”

Some time ago the British had very difficult money system. There were twelve pence in a shilling and twenty shillings in a pound. It means that they had more than one hundred pence in one pound. For a tourist it was almost impossible to Understand and use this system. But in 1971 it was changed to a simpler one. One pound is now one hundred pence, which is the same as in most money systems of the world.

You can sometimes think that over half of the people you see in the streets of London in summer are not Londoners, and most of them are not British at all. This is because London is one of the most popular cities of the world. Millions of people come here every year. So you can hear a lot of different languages on buses, in the Underground, in cafes and restaurants.

1. How many pence were there in one pound before 1971?
2. Is British money system different from systems of European countries now?
3.  When do most tourists come to London?
4. Why can you hear a lot of languages in the streets of London?
5. Why was it difficult for tourists to use the old British money system?

Leonardo da Vinci

When they hear the name Leonardo da Vinci, most people think of his famous painting, Mona  Lisa. This picture is in an art gallery in Paris, and it is visited by millions of tourists every year.

But Leonardo wasn't just a painter. He was also a talented inventor, engineer, architect and sculptor. He was full of new and exciting ideas.

Leonardo da Vinci was born in 1452 at his father's country home near the town of Vinci in Italy. He spent his childhood surrounded by the wonders of nature, perhaps watching animals and insects that were all around him.

Leonardo was hungry for knowledge. He studied the world around him and drew the things he saw. He read everything he could find, listened to other people's ideas, and made notes of the things he learned. Some of his notebooks were as large as wall posters, and others were small enough to carry in his pocket. Many have been lost, but some of them were published in the 1800s and can be seen today.

Although he was full of new ideas, Leonardo didn't build many of his inventions. One of his notebooks includes a drawing of a person with a parachute. Only 300 years later, in 1783, a Frenchman became the first person who made and used a parachute.

Leonardo did lots of drawings of arms and legs and other parts of the body and he designed a mechanical man — a robot! This robot could sit up, wave its arms, move its head and open and close its mouth.

Leonardo da Vinci died in 1519. He was truly a man ahead of his time.

1. What kind of text have you just read?

a) a fairy - tale             b) a biography              c) an adventure story        d) science fiction

2. Which of these would be the best as a different title?

a)Leonardo da Vinci — a famous painter.

b) Leonardo da Vinci — a man who invented a parachute.

c) Leonardo da Vinci — a man who studied the world around him.

d) Leonardo da Vinci — a man ahead of his time.

 3. Choose the sentence which is not true.

a) Leonardo da Vinci is a world famous painter.

b) Leonardo da Vinci wanted to learn as much as he could about the world around him.

c) Leonardo da Vinci made notes of the things he learnt.

d) Leonardo da Vinci was the first man who made a parachute jump.

e) Leonardo da Vinci designed a robot.

4. What do the words "a man ahead of his time" mean?

satisfaction and stability important to you?

Robot technologies in our home

T

here are lots of science fiction books and films about robots. Nice and humanlike metal and plastic creatures often become children’s friends there. Robots learn how to distinguish between good and evil, and how to become a friend to a human being. To our surprise and delight we find out that robots are able to experience feelings — they can feel happy, upset, and even angry. (1). They can even risk their life, (2), for someone they love.

Is artificial intellect a pure fantasy or are there any scientific discoveries behind this idea? (3)What we know for sure is that robotics is a rapidly developing technology, and soon we can expect robots to enter our houses and stay there for a long time. It’s already happening in Japan, where machines of all shapes and sizes are widely used. Besides being used in different industries, robots do lots of housework: they clean the house, serve tea and wash up after that. (4)These robots wake people up in the morning, inform them about the weather and ask questions about their health. The robots are able to recognise faces, keep eye contact and maintain conversations. In Japan, (5), humanoid robots have already become friends for lots of elderly people.

Robots for households are usually designed in a humanlike manner and resemble human beings — they have a head, arms and legs. Japanese scientists believe that in several years robots will be common in every household and feel very enthusiastic about it.

A. in robots’ terms they risk being destroyed or reprogrammed

2. Amazing but robots can take care of disabled or aged people!
3. Some rescue robots, which can dig deep after earthquakes, have already been created.
4. It’s still difficult to answer this question.
5. We can see robots break the technological law of logic and rational to defend human beings.
6. Elderly people often feel lonely and need some company.

G. which has the largest percentage of aged people in the world

Read the text and fill in the gaps with sentences A-G. There is one sentence you do not need.

Pets create a very special atmosphere at home, they add to the feeling of coziness and safety. They help us cope with stress and, being dependent and helpless in our world, make us feel important and worthwhile. (1) They wouldn’t survive in our flats and houses if we didn’t bring them food from the pet shops and essential vitamins from the vet clinics. They need us because a dog needs walking, a horse needs rubbing, and a goldfish wants the water in the tank to be clean and clear.

Some psychologists say that people who are lonely and non-confident tend to keep exotic pets. Those people hope that an unusual pet can add to their identity, put them aside from the crowd and help gain popularity with other people. (2) We pretend that we treat them as members of the family and try to impose our love on them. However, sooner or later the question emerges: do we have the right to sort out our own problems at animals’ expense? (3)

Scientists and environmentalists speak strongly against the so-called pet lovers, who adopt a kitten or a puppy just to please the kid or because of some impulse. Even the animals which have been living with people for centuries and have already adjusted to our world, need much more than their owner’s love. They need care based on knowledge, otherwise they’ll cause problems to you and their life will turn into a miserable experience. Before adopting a little hamster you need to find out everything about its eating habits and peculiarities of the cage housing. You need also to be aware that the pet requires everyday care and that you may find it monotonous and boring.

(4) Milagres, an Australian koala, could be considered a lucky one as she got to the zoo in time for the vets to save her. A European tourist had illegally exported her from Australia, as he was obsessed with the idea of keeping that cute animal in his backyard. “I was going to plant a Eucalyptus tree in my back garden, and I thought that keeping a koala wouldn’t be such a problem”, explained he later. That was a dangerous misconception. (5) It can’t digest hard and thick eucalyptus leaves, and that’s why you need to have from one to six hundred eucalyptus trees to keep your koala happy and healthy. The number of trees depends on the climate — the more humid the climate is, the fewer trees you need (within the range given above). (6)

Little koala Milagres exemplifies a big problem caused by ignorant pet owners. Wild animals are neither toys nor interior design accessories and putting them in a wrong environment makes them suffer and eventually kills them.

A. When exotic animals are kept as pets, ignorance is even more dangerous and cruel.

B. Though koalas’ eating habits have been studied by scientists, the information about their diet is fragmentary and incomplete.

C. This is why lots of crocodiles, snakes and lizards, gorillas and cockatoos become inhabitants of densely populated, traffic jammed megalopolises.

D. Do we have the right to keep a crock in the bath, or a dolphin in the swimming pool?

E. Apparently, only zoo specialists are able to provide the animal with an appropriate menu.

F. We understand that the most fierce and dangerous creatures are vulnerable and helpless in people’s world.

G. In fact, the koala is very particular about the diet — it eats only very fresh green leaves, springs and sprouts.

     The need for ever more qualified specialists is growing geometrically. The world is getting more and more complex and today’s graduates are expected to know a lot and to be able to work with loads of information. The information they get may be highly controversial and to assess it, young people need to understand the interconnections between politics, cultures,  economies and technologies around the world. Due to globalisation, education has practically ceased to function as a local system which trains workers for local industries. Today national education systems have to be changed (1).

Languages awareness is one of the essential requirements to a graduate today. Whatever field you are going to work in, you’ll have to communicate with colleagues, partners, providers or clients all over the world. To do it effectively you need sufficiently developed communication skills, (2). Lots of people understand the importance of foreign languages (3). If you have already left school, is it still possible to acquire necessary language skills and make up for opportunities missed in school years? Most teachers would say “yes”, you can learn languages in any age and get impressive results (4).

The innovations are particularly helpful to people who don’t have much time and cannot spend days in the language classroom. Over recent years computers have become increasingly important for learning languages. Computer technologies and the internet enable students to learn languages (5). IT technologies save time and it’s the main reason why e-learning and various online courses are getting more and more popular. From home, or while commuting they can practise vocabulary, grammar or write essays (6). There are special pieces of software that can record the students’ speech and programmes for work on pronunciation. Motivation for learning languages is increasing too. The internet, as the greatest technological advance, has brought the most essential thing into language learning — live communication across continents and cultures.

A   which can be instantly e-mailed to the tutor

B   due to new technologies and innovative approaches to language teaching

C   because the internet courses are becoming very popular

D   so that they could meet unified global standards
