TEXT 1

About Myself

 

There are many things in our life I like and some I dislike. I like when everything is OK. Being happy is one way of being wise. I like to study because knowledge is useful sometimes. I'm fond of reading as it gives not only knowledge, but also wonderful moments of joy and pleasure. I am neither short nor tall, so I like to wear high-heeled shoes, trousers or jeans.

I am a girl of sixteen. When I look at myself in the mirror I see a blond girl with short straight hair, dark eyes and a slender figure. As to my appearance I'm rather tall and slim. I have never thought I'm a beauty, I wish I were more beautiful. I think that I'm even tempered, rather reserved, calm and modest. But sometimes I can lose my temper and become either angry or sad. I like staying alone and sometimes I retreat into my shell. But at the same time I like my friends, I like to laugh and joke. I have got a sense of humour. It means I understand humour and appreciate it.

I am sociable, so I have got a lot of friends among my schoolmates. As for me, I appreciate people's honesty, kindness, sense of justice and intelligence. I don't like when people are rude and aggressive.

Very soon I'll pass my final exams at school and after a farewell party at the end of June I'll say goodbye to my teachers who are very well-educated people with broad outlook and deep knowledge of the subjects. They encouraged me in my disire of choosing my future career. School meant a lot to me and it wasn't just learning and studying. I made good friends there and met many interesting people. I faced a new life without school with a mixed feeling of sadness and joy.

  I like music! I'm fond of music of the 60-s, like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Elvis Prestly. The songs of the Beatles give me a lot of delight and pleasure. Besides, I am a great theatregoer. Whenever I have some time to spare, I go to the theatre. I'm not keen on television. I play different sport games for health and pleasure. I usually play such games as volleyball, basketball, tennis, and sometimes football.

  And finally, the things I hope to achieve in my life are: to have a verysuccessful career, so this year after finishing school I will try to enter the University, to build the house of my dreams and to find someone in my life to share all that with.

 

 1.Are these statements true (T) or false (F)?

Hobbies

 

A "hobby" is a special interest or activity that you do in your time off. Some people keep pets as hobby. They keep rabbits, or fishes. They train dogs to do tricks, or keep pigeons to race and carry messages. Some are crazy about plants. Others are mad about their car or their motorbike. They spend their Saturdays and Sundays washing them, painting them, or buying new bits and pieces to make them go even faster.

Children and teenagers are great collectors. They collect stamps, or postcards or matchboxes, or pictures of a favourite footballer or pop star.

Many people make things as a hobby. Some teach themselves at home, but a lot of people go to evening classes at their local college. Just look under letter B in a list of London or New York evening classes and you'll find: Ballet, Batik, Bengali, Body building, Breadmaking and Byzantium. But not everyone goes to evening classes to learn about his special interest. No one helped these people to do what they did.

A "hobby" is usually something that a person does alone. But American (and British) families sometimes like to do things together, too.American families often have quite a lot of money to spend on their recreation. They can all enjoy their holiday home or their boot somewhere in the country away from home.

Americans love to get out of town into the wild. and many go for holidays or long weekends into the thirty-live fabulous national parks. These magnificent areas of countryside include tropical forests, high mountains, dry deserts, long sandy coasts. grassy prairies and wooded mountains full of wild animals. The idea of these parks, which cover 1% of the whole area of the USA. is to make "a great breathing place for the national lungs", and to keep different parts of the land as they were before men arrived. There are camping places in the national parks as well as museums, boat trips and evening campfire meetings.

Americans really enjoy new "gadgets", especially new ways of travelling. In the winter, the woods are full of "snowmobiles" (cars with skis in the front). In thesummer they ride their "dune buggins" across the sands or take to the sky in hang gliders. But Americans do not only spend their free time having fun. They are very interested in culture too. Millions take part-time courses in writing. painting and music, and at weekends the museums, art galleries and concert halls are full.

Climate

The climate in Great Britain is generally mild and temperate due to the influence of the Gulf Stream. The south-western winds carry the warmth and moisture into Britain. The climate in Britain is usually described as cool, temperate and humid. British people say: "Other countries have a climate, in England we have weather."

The weather in Britain changes very quickly. One day may be fine and the next day may be wet. The morning may be warm and the evening may be cool. Therefore it is natural for the people to use the comparison "as changeable as the weather" of a person who often changes his mood or opinion about something. The weather is the favourite topic of conversation in Britain. When two Englishmen are introduced to each other, if they can't think of any thing else to talk about, they talk about weather. When two people meet in the street they will often say something about weather as they pass, just to show their friendliness.

Every daily paper publishes a weather forecast. Both the radio and television give the weather forecast several times each day.

The English also say that they have three variants of weather: when it rains in the morning, when it rains in the afternoon or when in rains all day long. Sometimes it rains so heavily that they say "It's raining cats and dogs".

Rainfall is more or less even throughout the year. In the mountains there is heavier rainfall then in the plains of the south and east. The driest period is from March to June and the wettest months are from October to January. The average range of temperature (from winter to summer) is from 15 to 23 degrees above zero. During a normal summer the temperature sometimes rises above 30 degrees in the south. Winter temperatures below 10 degrees are rare. It seldom snows heavily in winter, the frost is rare. January and February are usually the coldest months, July and August the warmest. Still the wind may bring winter cold in spring or summer days. Sometimes it brings the whirlwinds or hurricanes. Droughts are rare

Leisure of British Young People

Young people in Great Britain have plenty of free time in the evenings and at the weekends to fill with hobbies of all kinds. There is no doubt that the most popular leisure activity of all is watching TV. In fact the average Briton watches about 25 hours of television every week. They have a choice of four national networks (BBC1, BBC2,1 TV and channel 4) plus a dozen or so satellite and cable stations. The second most popular leisure activity is visiting or entertaining friends. Listening to music and reading follow in the third and fourth position. Going for a meal or to the cinema is widely spread among the British youth as well. Next comes voluntary work. A surprising 25% of British adults are involved in voluntary work of some kind. There are more than 250,000 voluntary organisations in the UK. Many voluntary groups try to raise money for local charities connected with schools or churches while others concentrate on international problems such as famine in Africa. Perhaps the most traditional leisure activity is sport, which is divided into participation and spectator sport. The most popular spectator sport is football. Then we should mention rugby, cricket and athletics. When it comes to participation sport, nobody will be surprised to find that walking is number one in this way. Swimming is second. Young men are also fond of snooker, darts, cycling and squash. Young women prefer to keep fit. At 15 years old and above young people try to find «Saturday jobs», working as assistants in shops, cafes or restaurants to have pocket money. They save this money for bicycles, motorbikes, and spend it for discos and dances.

Amelie's Christmas

Amelie was keeping her eyes closed tight. Yesterday it was Christmas and she went to bed too late. Her parents gave Christmas dinner and it was not easy. Her mother's relatives, the Clermounts, were too excited with the dinner and turned up at 9:30 a.m. They were too dull talking about their horses and races. They ran stables and knew all horses of the UK and some in Switzerland. Amelie tried to engage them into conversation about fine arts. Mr. Clermount got very enthusiastic discussing how naturally horses look on some pictures. While Amelie was suffering from too many horses, her mother, Mrs. Lester, was suffering from too much ingredients, which she had to combine, in order to cook Christmas dinner. The art of cooking was an absolute mystery for her, and she struggled with all that eggs, milk, flour, chickens. Ingredients were more skilful in struggling and Mrs. Lester sent Mr. Lester to the nearest restaurant for a take-away meal. At that very moment Mrs Clermount remembered that she had left all Christmas presents at their farmhouse and Amelie had to accompany her at her rash shopping tour. After three-hour search Mrs. Clermount picked up two blouses to: Amelie ar.d he: —other and a Chinese watch, that looked right like a true Rolex, Amelie's rather. Everything was for a good price of twenty-two pounds. When Christmas dinner was over, Amelie was so tired that she wasn't even disappointed to learn that Santa Clause brought her a big book about horses.

stable — конюшня,  take-away meal — готова їжа

The Mystery of the Ghost Ship

On November 4, 1872 two friends, captains Moorhouse and Briggs, and their wives were having dinner together in New York. Captain Moorhouse commanded the ship Dei Gratia while captain Briggs headed the crew of Mary Celeste. Next day, on November 5, Mary Celeste left port and went to Italy. There were eight members of the ship crew on the board. Besides captain Briggs took his wife and two-year-old daughter Sophie with him, as the journey promised to be peaceful.

Captain Moorhouse left port seven days later. On December 4 the sailors of Dei Gratia saw a ship, that was going the similar course with them. This was Mary Celeste going so wildly that" Moorhouse understood that something was wrong with the ship, He sent some of his sailors to Mary Celeste. There was nobody on the board. All people disappeared without any sign. The supply of water and food, the cargo, the crew's clothes and personal things were in good order. All machines were all right. But it seemed that people left the ship in a great hurry. Navigation instruments, a lifeboat and the ship's papers except the logbook were missed. The last note was made 11 days before. But it didn't explain the mystery of the ghost ship.

Numerous theories about the fate of people were made. Many popular stories, novels and plays speculated over the tragedy. But the mystery of Mary Celeste is still the greatest one of all times.
