9. Read the text and the statement to it. Tick if the statements are true or false.

Most of Britain’s most popular newspapers are tabloids. These include

The Sun, The Mirror, The Express and The Daily Mail. Although some tabloids

are serious newspapers and the broadsheets also have tabloid editions, many

people talk about tabloid journalism or the tabloid press to refer to a type

of a newspaper that contains many articles about music, sport and famous people, and less serious news, and is often insulting to women and people from other countries. The word «tabloid» is less widely used in the USA, where most of the important national newspapers are of a regular size. The best-known US tabloid, which uses short articles and large photographs, is the New York Daily News. Serious tabloids include the Chicago Sun-Times.


The New York Daily News is issued in the UK.

The History of the London Police

Today there are policemen everywhere but in 1700 London had no policemen at all. A few old men used to protect the city streets at night and they were not paid very much.

About three hundred years ago London was starting to get bigger. The city was very dirty and many people were poor. There were so many thieves who stole money in the streets that people stayed in their homes so much as possible.

In 1750 Henry Fielding started to pay a group of people to stop thieves. They were like policemen and were called ‘Bow Street Runners’ because they were working near Bow street.

Fifty years later there were 120 Bow Runners but London had become very big and needed more policemen. So, in 1829 the first metropolitan (or London) Police Force was started with 3000 officers.

Most of them were working on foot but a few rode horses. Until 1920 all the police in London were men. Today London police are quite well paid and for the few police officers who still ride horses the pay is even better than for the others.

1. Read the text and mark the following statements «True» (T) or «False» (F).

Cornelia Funke is a German writer. Her famous story «Inkheart» is a rich story centred around a 12-year-old book lover whose father has a unique gift for bringing the world of books to life. «Inkheart» was the first in a trilogy and Funke followed with «Inkspell» and «Inkdeath». Before writing «Inkheart», she learns about booksellers, book collectors, book thieves and even book murderers as well as reading about martens and fire-eaters. She then imagines the characters and the places they might go, writes down lines for the first 20 chapters. Then, and only then — after about six months — she writes the first sentence. A novel will take her about a year to write. She always does her own sketches — in pen and ink, she creates a picture of her own characters to help her write about them. She married printer Rolf Funke in 1981. They have two children, Anna and Ben. Up until 2005 the Funke family lived in Hamburg, Germany, when they moved to Los Angeles. Sadly, in March 2006, Rolf died of cancer.
