The anthem of Ukraine is "Sche ne vmerla Ukrainy...". Pavlo Chubyns'kyi wrote the words in 1863 and later composer Mykhilo Verbyts'kyi wrote the music. First it became the national anthem in 1919. In 1992 it came back again.

The perfect body
Most people were surprised when Renee Zellweger got the part of Bridget in the film Bridget Jone’s Diary. The film is about a young woman who worries about work, her weight and men. Zellweger is a slim American woman – completely different from Bridget who is English and overweight.
So, what did Zellweger do to get the part right? She had lessons to improve her English accent and she put on about eleven kilos. For several months she didn’t do any exercise and she ate a lot of pizza, peanut butter sandwiches and chocolate. Although it was fun at first, she often felt quite sick.
Zellweger put the weight on because she thought it was important to be as real as possible. She was surprised, however, by people’s criticism. People criticized her for being fat when she put on weight for the film. They often criticized her again for being too skinny when she lost weight after the film. She realized it’s almost impossible to have the perfect body in the eyes of media.
So why did she do it? Well, money was probably one reason. On top of her $ 15 million salary, she earned $ 225.000 for every kilo she put on. That’s an extra $ 2.5 million! And she didn’t stop there. A British slimming magazine paid her $ 3.5 million to lose all the weight again. So perhaps Zellweger doesn’t need to care about the criticism when she earns all this money!
Task 1. Put « +» if the statement is true and « - » if the statement is false.
Task 2. Choose a correct answer
1. Most people were_______ when Renee got the role of Bridget.
a. surprised
b. happy
c. upset
2. She often felt quite______ while eating fattening food.
a. unsure
b. happy
c. sick
3. The article tells us that Renee_______.
a. is only interested in money and fame
b. doesn’t have a very successful career
c. is not afraid to change if it’s necessary for the role
4. Why did she gain some kilos?
a. the only reason was money
b. she thought it was important for the role
c. she wanted to show everyone that it’s easy to lose all the weight afterwards
5. What was people’s reaction for Renee’s weight changes?
a. People criticized her for being fat or too skinny
b. People were envious that she put on some weight so easily
c. They felt sorry for her
6. For several months she didn’t do any exercise and_____.
a. watched TV all the time

Текст для аудіювання 11 клас
The word “diet” originally meant “things that people usually eat”, but, these days, we use the word to mean an eating pattern or programme designed to change something.
We could be talking about any one of many different kinds. There are diets for avoiding certain chemicals, like salt, and there are diets to increase amounts of certain things, like potassium. There are even diets to help people put on weight.
However, despite all these, we usually say “diet” about losing weight. This is certainly the area where the money gets spent. And it has a long history.
But when did it all start? There’s a story that in 1087, William the Conqueror, King of England, had become so fat that he could no longer ride his horse. He stayed in bed and drank alcohol instead of eating food to try and lose weight.
Now, it may or may not have worked for him, but we can’t really recommend it as an approach for most people. What’s important is the kinds of food you eat, because different foods contain different things our bodies need.
But it has taken a long time to find out exactly what these are. Sea travel led to some increase in understanding. When it became possible to build ships that could go on long voyages, sailors started to spend many months at sea. They also started getting a strange disease called “scurvy”. Eventually, it became clear that they needed fruit or vegetables to survive. Today, we know that vitamin C is the reason.
Although the discovery helped their lives, there was much more that wasn’t known. Nobody knew, for example, why some people got fat and others didn’t, or what to do about it.
Then, in 1890s, a chemist called Wilbur Atwater began investigation how foods consisted of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. He found that he could measure the heat value of these by burning them and called a unit of this heating a “calorie”.
This measurement he created can be seen as the start of modern food science and dieting. Since then, knowledge has come quickly – some people say too quickly!
Task 1. Put « +» if the statement is true and « - » if the statement is false.
Task 2. Choose a correct answer
1. The word “diet” originally meant__.
a) “things that people usually eat”
b) “things that people don’t like to eat”
c) “things that make people strong”
2. William the Conqueror used a diet__.
a) to be fit
b) to be healthy
c) to lose weight
3. What did he do?
a) He drank a lot of pure water.
b) He drank wine instead water.
c) He drank alcohol instead of eating food.
4. People became to understand better what our bodies need thanks to__.
a) William the Conqueror
b) long sea voyages
c) alcohol
5. Wilbur Atwater lived __.
a) in the 19th century
b) at the beginning of the 18th century
c) in the 20th century
6. Food consists of__.
a) fats, minerals, vitamins

My Town
My name is Nick. I live in a small town. Our town is not very big. Not all the streets of our town are long and wide. But they are green in summer with a lot of trees and flowers. On Saturdays and Sundays there are a lot of people and cars in the streets. The people of our town do the shopping.
We can see a lot of people in the parks in our town. In spring and summer there are a lot of grannies and little children in our "Children's Park". Grannies usually sit or walk. And their little grandchildren like to play balls, ride small cars, run and jump. This park is the best place for our children.
In summer, when it is hot, the people of our town like to go to the river. It is not very long and wide, but it's warm and clean. There is a bridge across the river. Next to the river there is a large field. In summer it is yellow and very beautiful.
Some houses in our town are big and tall. But there are small houses too. And they have got small gardens with apple trees and flowers.

A compliment for a compliment
A very rich painter did not have a family, but he had a dog that he loved like a son.
The dog was ill – perhaps because the painter gave it too much food. The animal lay in the painter’s bed: it ate nothing, only drank a little water. The painter telephoned all the hospitals in the city, but when they heard that the patient was a dog, they refused to send a doctor.
The patient sure the dog’s life was in danger. He telephoned one of the best doctors in London, but he did not tell him who the patient was. When the doctor came, the painter said, “I know you are a great doctor, and you don’t take care of dogs. But this is very important to me, and I hope you will not refuse.”
The doctor was angry, but he said nothing.
The next day, the doctor telephoned the painter and asked him to come to his house. The painter was sure it was about his dog. But the doctor, who met him at the door, said nothing about the dog. “I want to talk to you about my door,” he said. “I know you are a great painter, and you don’t paint the doors, but it is very important to me. I hope you will not refuse.

Part 2
A woman met me in Lowood school. She took my things and we walked to a big house. We went into the house. A teacher came and took me by the hand. The woman went away with my things and the teacher took me into a long room with a lot of large tables round it. Girls of nine to twelve years old sat on benches round the tables. They all had brown dresses on. It was dark and cold in the room.
"Sit down on one of the benches," said the teacher. "The girls are learning their lessons for tomorrow. They will soon finish and you will have supper. Then you will go to bed."
For supper we had a piece of bread and some water. After that we marched to the bedroom. It was a large room with many beds. Two girls slept in each bed. In ten minutes the teacher took away the light.
The night passed quickly. In the morning it was very cold in the room. We washed our faces in water with ice. Then we marched to the cold schoolroom where lessons began. We read the Bible and did exercises in our exercise-books. This lasted for an hour. Then we marched to another room for breakfast. After breakfast there was reading, writing, history and geography. Before dinner we went into the cold, windy garden for an hour.
For dinner we had some bad meat and potatoes. I ate what. I could. Then we marched back to the schoolroom and had our lessons till five o’clock.
The next day began as before, but we could not wash. The water in the washroom was ice.
During January, February and March there was much snow in the garden. We had no boots and could not walk far. The rooms were very cold. The food was bad and in spring many of the pupils were ill with typhus. In May Lowood school was a hospital. We had no lessons. Many pupils went home and died there. Some girls died in the school.

The gift
Oscola McCarty spent more than 75 years washing and ironing other people's clothes. Her lined hands were the evidence of hard work. So, it was a surprise, when Miss McCarty decided to give her entire life savings - $150,000 – to the University of Southern Mississippi. Miss McCarty's gift amazed even those who thought they knew her well.
The customers who have brought their laundry and ironing to her home for more than 75 years included three generations of some families. Initially she said she charged $1.50 to$2 a bundle but with inflation the price rose.
"When I started making $10 a bundle, I began to save money," recollected Miss McCarty, who was born on March 7 1908. "I put it in savings. I never would take any of it out. It just accumulated."
As her savings increased over years, McCarty washed and ironed and lived not a rich life. She never learned to drive and still walks everywhere she goes. When her mother and aunt died, they each left her some money, which she added to her savings. In 1947 her uncle died and left her a modest house in which she still lives.
Until her donation, she was afraid to fly and had only been out of the South once in 50 years. Since then she's travelled all over the country and has been the subject of many interviews and articles. She's even visited the White House and been honoured by the president.
Her donation of her life savings is for students who clearly demonstrate a financial need. "I want to help somebody's child go to college," said the quite spoken McCarty, who left school in sixth grade and has never married or had children. "I just want it to go to someone who will appreciate it and learn. I'm old. I'm not going to live always."
Miss McCarty's generosity inspired many to give money to the university, and contributions came in from all over the country. Her gift has now been more than doubled.
In a recent magazine interview McCarty was asked why she didn't spend the money earned over a lifetime on herself. "I am spending it on myself," she answered smiling.
Task 1. Point out if the statement is true (T) or false (F)
Task 2. Point out the right answer.
3. People of how many generations were the clients of Oscola?
a) one

c) three

The British Character
The British are often viewed as the most boring people in the world. They wear unimaginatively formal clothes, eat tasteless food, and practice slow sports and have a specific sense of humour which is not usually understood by foreigners. They are also said to be conservative, reserved and cool. Indeed, the British are not very open and spontaneous. They do not kiss or embrace by way of greeting so as not to allow familiarity. They always keep a certain distance and are not willing to manifest their feelings and emotions. It is not easy to make friends with them but once you have made a friend, it is a friend for life.
The English are said to be the masters of trivial conversation. Their “small talk” usually deals with the weather or some general questions as it is not accepted to interfere in someone’s private life.
The British are very polite. They always queue when they are waiting for a bus and hold the door open for the person behind them. On the other hand, the English football fans are regarded as hooligans and vandals. Generally speaking, however, the British are well – mannered.
“There is no place like home”, say the British. This proverb best express an Englishman’s traditional love of his home. About 70% of all the people have their own houses. Most homes have a garden in which the British spend a lot of time growing flowers and looking after the lawn – a national pride.
The English are completely crazy about pets. There are more animal rights groups in Britain than anywhere else in the world. Paradoxically, the English still love the hunting of wild animals, such as foxes or hares, with the aim of killing them.
It is not easy to decide on the typically British characteristics. Not all English people are cold, uncommunicative or boring, not all of them are crazy about lawns or animals. Still, there is one thing that is typically British: a strong connection with tradition and a wish to keep their country’s uniqueness. Some people say that the British live in the past, but they are simply proud of their country.
