Manners and friendship in the USA and U.K.
When meeting someone new, Americans
and Englishmen usually have certain man-
ners. They:
- Look them in the eye.
- Smile.
- Say "Hello. My name is/ I'm ... It's nice to
meet you, ..." (Say their names.)
- Stand up when a grown-up enters the room.
- Say "How do you do?" if it is a stranger.
Men and boys do not offer their hand to
shake unless the girl or lady offer theirs.
When they talk to grown-ups, use their titles:
"Yes, Mrs. Brown." "No, Doctor White."
Do you know that the only formally cor-
rect way to address people in Great Britain is
"Madam" and "Sir"? Schoolboys and school-
girls call their teacher "Sir", if it is a man. And if the teacher is a woman, they
say "Miss".
Say: "Sorry" or "Excuse me", or "I beg your pardon", if you don't under-
stand.
Some topics of conversation or things they might talk to a new friend abo-
ut may include:
- What do you do?
- Where do you go to school?
- What are your hobbies, favourite things to do?
- Do you play any sports?
- What are your favourite movies, books, songs, musical groups, etc.?

- Don't say anything critical to a new friend. Instead focus on what you
have in common or pay your new friend a compliment.
- Never ask grown-ups the question "How old are you?"
Write down as many facts from the text as you can. Exchange
papers with a partner. Now look back to the text to see how much
you have remembered.

Greetings
American Informality
Americans are often very informal. They
greet each other informally. Usually they say
"Hi" whether they are greeting a close friend,
an older person, a child, or their employee.
Americans often call one another by their
first names, even when they do not know one
another well.
Are people in your country more or less
formal with each other than people in the
United States?
( ,

Formal Introductions
Usually American greetings are informal. People say "Hi" or "Hello". But
sometimes people use formal introductions.

1) Americans and Englishmen don't
like people to come too near to them.
Do you touch people?
Many Northern Europeans and North
Americans don't touch each other very
much.
2) Most polite Americans wait qui-
etly in lines (ticket lines, cafeteria li-
nes, etc.). They try not to touch the pe-
ople in front of them or behind them, if pos-
sible. It is not polite to jump the queue. Is
this custom the same in your native count-
ry? One of the school rules in America is
"Keep your hands to yourself."

3) In America and Great Britain people who are very good friends
don't shake hands. (Unless they haven't seen each other for a long time or
one wants to congratulate the other.)
As a foreign visitor to Britain or the States, people will shake you by the
hand when you are introduced and when you finally depart. They will probab-
ly not shake your hand at other times.
Do people in your country shake hands?
4) Most Americans smile a lot to be polite. However, they usually do
not smile at strangers in crowded city streets, or on buses, or trains.
Do people smile very often to be polite in your country?
2. Act out the dialogue. Mind your manners!
1) An English family arrives at your house. Greet and receive
them.

Some more polite customs
1) People in Great Britain or the United States hold the door open
for any person following them. They also hold the door open for someo-
ne who is carrying packages.
Is this custom the same in your country? Do men usually hold the door
open for women? Do you hold the door open for any person following you in
the Subway?
2) It is polite for Americans and Englishmen to offer to share their food,
if someone they know comes up to them while they are eating. (Ho-
wever, if they are eating a sandwich in a cafe, they cannot share the san-
dwich!) When do people share food in your country?

Sir, Mr., Mrs., etc.
The other day in Baker Street a well-mannered foreigner appro-
ac hed me. (I knew he was a foreigner because he lifted his hat to me and an
Englishman only lifts his hat to women). He spoke quite good English, but I
almost laughed because he began by saying, "Excuse me, gentleman...".
A small mistake, but to an Englishman it is unthinkable. "Madam" and "Sir":
this is the only formally correct way to address people. One even says "Ma-
dam", or the abbreviated "Ma'am", when talking to the Queen.
You call "Waiter!", "Waitress!", or "Porter!" if you want service. School-
girls and schoolboys call their male teacher "Sir" but their female teacher
"Miss", not "Madam".
"Sir" and "Madam", like "Mr.", "Mrs." and "Miss" are shortened forms of
"Master" and "Mistress".

Great Britain
10. Listen and read this text about Great Britain.
The official name for the country whose language we study is the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. In everyday use, however, the
word "Britain" is quite possible.
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has several dif-
ferent names.
Some people say "Great Britain", or "Britain", or "the United Kingdom", or
just "the U.K." and "G.B."
Great Britain is an island that lies off the north west of Europe. It is the
largest island in Europe. It is 500 km wide and nearly 1,000 km long.
There is the Atlantic Ocean on the north of it and the North Sea on the east.
The English Channel, which is about 21 miles, separates the U.K. from the
continent. Its closest continental neighbours
are France and Belgium. Recently the chan-
nel Tunnel, which links France and England,
has been built.
There are four countries in the United Kin-
gdom: England, Scotland, Wales and Nor-
thern Ireland.
England, Scotland and Wales are three
main parts of Great Britain. Scotland is in the
north. Edinburgh is Scotland's capital, it is
one of the most beautiful cities in Britain.
Wales is in the west. The capital city of Wales
is Cardiff.
Ireland, which is also an island, lies off the
west coast of Great Britain. Northern Ireland
and the Irish Republic (Eire) are on this is-
land. Belfast is the largest city in Northern
Ireland and it is its capital.

17. Read and find out about the national emblem of Wales.
The national emblem of Wales
On the first of March each year one can see people walking around Lon-
don with leeks pinned to their coats. A leek is the national emblem of Wales.
The many Welsh people who live in London - or in other cities outside Wa-
les - like to show their solidarity on their national day. The day is actually
called Saint David's Day, after a sixth century abbot who became patron sa-
int of Wales. David is the nearest English equivalent to the saint's name, Oawi.
The saint was known traditionally as the Waterman, which perhaps means
that he and his monks were teetotallers. A teetotaller is someone who drinks
no kind of alcohol, but it does not mean that he drinks only tea, as many ....
people seem to think.
In spite of the leeks mentioned earlier, Saint David's emblem is not that,
but a dove. No one, not even the Welsh, can explain why they took leek to
symbolise their country. After all, they can't pin a dove to their coat!
18. Talk about the national emblem of Wales, mind the prepositions.

19. Listen and read this text about Scotland.
In area Scotland is more than half as big as England.
The principal cities are: its capital Edinburgh and the main
industrial centre Glasgow. Scottish towns look very different
from English towns.
Scotland was an independent Kingdom, often at war with
England until 1603.
In 1603 King James VI of Scotland became the King of
England too, as James I, and from that time the countries
were under the same monarch. In 1707 the Act of Union in-
corporated Scotland with England in the United Kingdom.
Although Scotland has its own language - Gaelic, most
Scottish people speak English. The English language is spo-
ken all over Scotland with a variety of regional accents, but all
of these can be at once recognized as Scottish, with the sounds
pronounced more nearly as written than in standard English.
The sport of golf originated in Scotland.

21. Please, talk about the national emblem of Scotland.
Why is Scotland's national emblem the thistle?
Different countries have different national emblems. or symbols. For Scot-
land, the thistle has been the national emblem since it was adopted by King
James III, in the 15th century.
There is a legend that, in the 8th century, an army of invading Danes were
creep.ng up at night to attack Stirling castle, the ancient seat of the Scottish
kings. The Scots sentries had no idea that an enemy was close until one of
the barefoot Danish raiders stepped on a thistle and let out a yell of pain. The
noise alerted the Scots, who rushed out of the castle and defeated the Da-
nes in the battle that followed.

22. Read about two English towns and say what they are famous
for.
Cambridge
Cambridge is situated at a distance of 70 miles from London. It is one
of the most beautiful towns in England. The dominating factor in Cambrid-
ge is its well-known University, a centre of education and learning. New-
ton, Byron, Darwin and many other scientists and writers were educated
at Cambridge. It has 27 colleges. A college is a place where you live no
matter what profession you are trained for: so students studying literature
and those trained for physics may belong to one and the same college.
Every college is headed by a dean.
Oxford
Oxford is one of the great English universities too. Cambridge and
Oxford are almost identical. They trace their long history back to the same
period. By the end of the thirteenth century both universities already had
colleges.
Oxford and Cambridge are associated with the higher ranks of society.
They have always been universities for gentlemen.

23. Let's have a closer look at Cambridge and its university.
My name is Ann Berlina. I am a student at Moscow State Linguistic Uni-
versity.
Last winter I spent ten days in the university city of Cambridge. It is built
on a river called the Cam. Cambridge University. founded in 1209. is still one
of the two best places to study in England; Oxford is the other. Students work
very hard to obtain a place at "Oxbridge" - either at Oxford or at Cambrid-
ge. There is great rivalry between these two ancient universities: each wants
to be better than the other. but in reality both are equally good.
Today. Cambridge is famous not only for its university but also because it
is a very picturesque and ancient city. Many of its buildings are very old: some
were built about 700 years ago. Some of the older buildings are covered with
beautiful plants such as ivy. Many are surrounded by green lawns and rnulti-
coloured flower-beds. Although all the colleges belong to the same universi-
ty. each has its own character and style. In 1440 King Henry VI founded King's
CoHge, hoping that this would make people remember him. It is still the most
famous college in Cambridge because its chapel is one of the finest churc-
"es in Western Europe. There are also many beautiful bridges across the Cam
including the Mathematical Bridge and the Bridge of Sighs.
In my view. Cambridge is a very pleasant city to live and study in. Since
there are so many colleges. a large number of the city's inhabitants are young
students. In the day-time the students work in the many libraries or attend
lectures. while in evenings they go back to their college rooms or university
lodgings.
Sport plays a large part in university life. As Cambridge is on the river Carn.
rowing seems to be the most popular sport. There are "boathouses" all along
the river bank and early in the mornings you'li see many students rowing.
whatever the weather. The best of them are preparing for the famous annual
boat race against their rivals from Oxford. This race attracts much attention:
thousands of people line the banks of the Thames in London to cheer both
teams on. and the race is broadcast on television in many different parts of
the world. I
When visiting Cambridge. one should certainly take the time to have a look
around the shops. There are many bookshops for students and tailors' shops
where long traditional gowns are sold. At weekends shops are often crow-
ded with tourists looking for souvenirs such as mugs. T-shirts and scarves,
all with college crests on them. Students wear scarves of various colours in
the winter when the weather is cold - at least by English standards! They often
complain of the wind and rain, as most of them travel around by bicycle.

Foreign students from different countries enjoy their stay in Cambridge
not only because of its beautiful sights, but because they have a chance to
meet many English people of their own age.
24. Could you please explain why Ann writes the following: "In my
view Cambridge is a very pleasant city to live and study in"?
25. Listen and read more about Great Britain.
The climate of the British Isles is influenced by the Atlantic Ocean. Winters
are not so cold as they can be on the continent, but summers are not so warm
as they usually are on the other side of the Channel. In other words Great
Britain has a mild climate. England is famous for its beautiful lawns with flo-
wers. They stay green all the year round. Many people say that England looks
like a large well-kept park.
The animals of the British Isles look like those of north-western Europe:
faxes, squirrels, hares, etc. There are about 430 kinds of birds, many of them
are song-birds. The most popular hobby of Englishmen is bird-watching.
People mainly live in cities and towns. The country's industry is highly
developed and output of goods is larger than is needed for home use. There-
fore, a great part of the industrial output is exported. The large industrial
centres are Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Nottingham, Liverpool.
Britain has only 1 % of the world's popu-
lation but is the fifth largest trading nation. It
exports electrical and electronic equipment
and chemicals and oil.
London is the capital. It is situated on the
Thames.
The most famous older buildings in Lon-
don include Buckingham Palace (the Sove-
reign's residence in London), the Houses of
Parliament (an outstanding example of ni-
neteenth-century Gothic Revival architectu-
re), S1. Paul's Cathedral (the second lar-
gest church in Europe), Westminster Abbey
(where Sovereigns are crowned), and the
Tower of London.

London is a leading art centre with many theatres, galleries, museums and
concert halls. The Globe Theatre with which Shakespeare was closely asso-
ciated, is being reconstructed in London.
The first passenger-carrying Underground railway in the world was ope-
ned in London in 1863. Recently the Channel Tunnel which links France and
England has been built.
Great Britain is a monarchy, but the Queen is not absolute but constituti-
onal. Her powers are limited by Parliament. The Prime Minister is usually the
leader of the Party that has a majority in the House of Commons. The largest
political parties are the Conservatives, Labour and the Liberal Democrats.
Elections, in which citizens over 18 may vote, are held every five years. Since
1973, Britain has been a member of the European Community.
People often say that the Englishman's home is his castle. They mean that
the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in hou-
ses rather than flats. Most houses have a garden.
An Englishman's idea of a good breakfast is the following: cereal
with milk, bacon and eggs or fish, hot buttered toast with jam or mar-
malade and a cup of coffee or strong tea with milk. English people drink
a lot of tea. Some have tea for breakfast, tea in the middle of the mor-
ning, tea after dinner, tea in the middle of the afternoon, tea at tea-
time and tea with supper. The English always drink tea out of cups or
mugs, never out of glasses. Englishmen always eat bread with their
soup. With meat and vegetables they never eat any bread.
Sports and games are very popular in England. Football, tennis and
cricket matches as well as boat and horse races always attract many pe-
ople. Football is the most spectacular sport. Walking is the most popular
activity.

The "Melting Pot"
The United States is called a "melting pot", or salad bowl/mixed salad
because people from all over the world have mixed together to create mo-
dern American society. The earliest immigrants came from every country of
the world.

The United States of America (the USA)
In every life people call this country America. Do we know much of its past?
Part I. America in the past
Many hundred years ago on the territory of the present day America lived
the red-skin Indians. They hunted animals and fished. grew corn and tobac-
co.
In the middle of the 15th century some European countries began to send
their ships to discover new sea routes to far off lands. One of these explorers
was Christopher Columbus from Spain. who sailed with his crew on 33 small
ships for 3 months. When they saw at last an unknown land they thought that
it was India. That is why they called the local people living there red-skin In-
dians. But Columbus was mistaken. It was an island near North America. This
discovery took place on the 12th of October 1492. That is why in 1992 Ame-
rica celebrated its SOOth anniversary. But this new land got its name "Ameri-
ca" a little later when an Italian explorer Amerigo Vespucci described it in his
writings in 1499.

Since that time different European coun-
tries sent their people to North America to
trade with the natives and to look for gold,
silver. fur and ot.her things there. In 1620
more than one hundred Englishmen left their
country forever and went to America on bo-
ard the ship "Mayflower" to live and work the-
re. Their voyage lasted for many weeks and
was very hard. At last they reached the coast
of America and began to build a village cal-
led New Plymouth.
Later on. more and more people from
many countries came to live in America. En-
gland considered these new territories as its
colonies and soon the newcomers began to
fight for their independence. The biggest war
lasted from 1775 up to 1783. Commander-
in-chief of the North American army was

Part II. America today
At present the USA is a highly develo-
ped industrial and agricultural country. It
is rich in coal, oil, iron and natural gas. It
exports a lot of raw materials, industrial
and agricultural products.
People enjoy the wonders of nature
practically in every state. The Appalachi-
ans and the Rocky Mountains, forests, pla-
ins, prairies and even deserts, wonderful
lakes, waterfalls and rivers cover the Ame-
rican territory that equals about 9.4 milli-
on square kilometers. Among the most fa-
mous sites of interest are the Great Lakes.
Niagara falls, the Golden Gate bridge in
San Francisco and others. There are manv
beautiful National parks and protected
areas of wilderness in America.
The population of the USA is about 250
million people of many nationalities. Some
of the biggest cities are New York, Chica-
go, Philadelphia, San Francisco and ot.
hers. There are many very tall buildings ir
them that really scrape the sky, that's wh)
they are called skyscrapers.
The capital of the country is Washingtor
D. C. (the District of Columbia). The USA i
a federal republic. The American parliamen
(called Congress) has two chambers: thE
House of Representatives and the Senate

Valley Quail and flower - Golden Poppy.
America as any other country has its own
customs. traditions, and holidays. For instan-
ce. on the 4th of July they celebrate Indepen-
dence Day that gave birth to the American
nation. At the end of November America has
Thanksgiving Day which was celebrated for
the first time in 1621 when the first colonists
from England got their first good harvest.
Young people enjoy two other holidays -
Halloween (on October 31) and St. Valenti-
ne's Day (on February 14). No doubt, a gre-
at amount of information about the USA is
awaiting the future learners of this country.
They will learn of the activity and life of Ame-
rican Presidents. the USA's great writers,
poets, artists, scientists, musicians. film stars
and other outstanding people.
Let it be only the first line of a long essay
on the USA. But as an English proverb says
"A good beginning is half the battle. II

If you want to go from San Francisco to New York in a car.
you must ride more than three thousand miles. It takes over
three days and nights.
In California, where you begin your trip, the climate is usu-
ally mild all year. "California" is a Spanish word meaning "heat
of the ovens". Slightly south of the route that your car follows
is the famous fruitful area. Californian oranges, grapefruit and
lemons, as well as many other fruits and vegetables are ship-
ped all over the United States and to other parts of the world.
Soon, however, you leave these fertile plains and go up
into the Sierra Nevada mountains, with their snow-capped
peaks and clear mountain lakes.
As your car goes further east, you cross the Salt Lake
desert. For miles and miles you will see nothing but salt and
salt. Your car crosses the flat plains of Wyoming, which
stretch out for miles and miles, covered with short grass and
sagebrush. This is mainly sheep and cattle country, the land
of the cowboys. As you cross it, you may wonder where the
people of America are. From time to time you may see a few
cattle scattered over the plain, or the wagon of a sheep her-
der, but most of the country is empty.
As your car crosses Nebraska, you gradually leave this
empty country and enter the rich farming region of Ameri-
ca. The land becomes fertile and well watered, and more
trees appear. Nebraska has many golden wheat fields. In
Iowa and Illinois, wheat and corn are important products,
and much livestock is raised.
After two days, your streamlined, air-conditioned car arri-
ves in Chicago. Chicago, with a population of more than three
and a half million, is the second largest city in the United Sta-
tes. It is a centre of industry for the middle part of the coun-
try.
In Pennsylvania and New Jersey you can find factories of
nearly every type - textile and pottery. steel and chemical.

Imagine yourself in a plane flying over its territory. You will see wonderful
sights: blue lines of the rivers, blue mirrors of the lakes and seas, green pat-
ches of the meadows, plains and forests and mountains. You will enjoy every
minute of your flight.
What kind of scenery is typical for the place where you live? Which of the-
se words might be used to describe the pla-
ce where you live?
beautiful forests or woodland
peaceful ancient buildings
quiet large port
crowded small harbour
noisy seaside/ lakes
busy green valley
ancient grassy hills
historical mountain region
wild
Our land is remarkable for its wealth. The-
re is gold, platinum, diamonds, coal, nonfer-
rous metals, peat, oil, gas and wood.
Four beautiful seasons: winter, spring,
summer and autumn are distinctly expressed
in our country.
The nature and peoples inhabiting our
country are given the most important thing -
faith. It is great faith that brings us together.
It's faith that creates a harmony with the
"world of the spirit". It's faith that makes us
patient and understanding, the qualities
which help us live and survive in the most
hard times.
The national property which makes us pro-
ud is its greatness: talented scientists, experts,
famous philosophers, outstanding inventors,
musicians, writers, artists.

Part I. Nature in Russia
Listen and enjoy yourself. It is dawn.
"The first appearance of daylight in the
morning." Everything is coming out to meet
the Sun's light. The meadows, forests, ri-
vers, and lakes are feeling happy at this
moment showing their fresh and vital bea-
uty.
Flowers, birds, animals and people - all of
them are filling themselves with the great po-
wer of the sun expressing it in their own langu-
age. The flowers are showing their colours:
yellow. red. orange, violet. rose, white, pink.
The birds are singing their wonderful
songs; the animals are silently observing the surroundings. The butterflies
and bees are dancing in the air.
Every creature on earth is thankful to the Sun. Indeed, there is a lot to
be thankful for.
This is beauty. This is joy forever!

Part II. Seasons in Russia
Winter
Look through the window, It is snowing. It always snows in
winter. Winds are blowing. They blow every winter. The sun is
not shining, Sometimes it shines all day long.
Leafless trees and ever-green pines and fir-trees with
heavy ucaps" of snow decorate the landscape.
And you? Do you like skating, skiing, making Snowmen, or
some other winter sports after a difficult school day?
Imagine yourself warmly clothed sitting in a sledge and a
fast horse is carrying you along a forest road. The gold sun is
shining brightly. You are looking at the sky, at white and silver
trees. Are you not very happy?
Think of those who composed the music, who painted lan-
dscapes, Dream about yourself, your place in the life of our
country, She needs each of you, your talent, your knowledge
and your help.

Spring
It is one of the beloved seasons for many people. The air
is fresh, the trees are light green, the days are long. Every-
body likes to leave the house and breathe different smells of
the first flowers, trees and the ground. The snow is melting.
Its white colour is losing its brightness and we enjoy_ oursel-
ves with quickly running streams around us.
Birds are making their nests; animals are clearing and
building their sheltes; insects are waking up and looking for
food in the green gardens.
It is time for the fruit trees to show themselves in their blos-
soming beauty.
The loather is fine. It may rain and even snov.
People work in their gardens. Planting and sowing keep
them long in the gardens. \
Spring is a promising time for the old and the young.

Summer
It's great fun. We enjoy every minute of
the weather. We swim and get sunburnt, go
to the forest and pick berries. We play sports,
go hiking. _
Imagin, it is a rainy day and you are in a
forest. You can find yourself under a branchy
tree in the company of .your dog and the in-
sects. All are saving you from the water. We
are all together, we feel the rain whispering
to each of us something wonderful and com-
forting. We must be together. It's God's will.

Autumn
It is the time for joy and quitness. We can
still admire colourful trees: green, yellow,
red. In September it is still warm, the sun
shines, it doesn't often rain and people don't
want to think of the coming winter. Autumn is
the time to harvest a rich crop of fruit, vege-
tables and berries. We see birds flying away.
They are no longer singing. They are "pac-
king" .
September, 1 is called the Day of Know-
ledge in Russia. It is a great holiday for teac-
hers, schoolchildren and their parents. Pupils
come back to school full of new impressions about their summer holidays.
How wonderful that we have all these seasons.

Part III. Our greats
Russian nature, spirit and genius come together in the greatest people of
our land. Let's pay tribute to a few of them. -M. Lomonosov was one of them.
He was a great thinker, leader of Russian science, a well-known enlighte-
ner; an inventor of many technologies, a poet, a translator, a historian.
The first Russian University in Moscow was founded according to the pro-
ject of M. Lomonosov. In 1940 the University was named in honour of him.
"Lomonosov was the first university for us." (A. Pushkin)
V. Vernadsky developed the greatest theory of the XX century - biosphe-
re, the environment which created us and which we represent.
K. Timiryazev was an outstanding botanist. He wrote about evolution in
nature. He devoted all his life to photosynthesis of plants.
D. Mendeleev was the creator of his famous "Table of chemical elements".
A. Popov was the creator of radio. In 1895 he gave a working demonstra-
tion of the first radio receiver in the world and several months later he tran-
smitted the radio message over a distance of 250 metres.
They all founded their inventions on the great ideas of M. Lomonosov.
The Cosmos has become a sphere for experiments of the XX century: bi-
ological, ecolog ical, ag ricultural, industrial and others.
Everybody remembers outstanding scientists of our country: K. Tsialkov-
sky, S. Korolev and other cosmos scientists who studied the Cosmos and gave
the world the first flight round our dear and beautiful earth. We all know the
courageous hero - Yury Gagarin.
Glory to all of them dead and living!

Aesop
Aesop was a Greek folk hero. He lived in the 6th century B.C. He was a
teller of animal fables and stories in which animals behaved like human
beings. Although Aesop himself probably did not write down his fables him-
self, other people recorded collections of his stories as early as the 4th
century B.C. Short, easy to understand, and entertaining, teachers have
been using Aesop's fables since ancient times as texts in schools.
The Ants and the Grasshopper
All summer long, the ants were busy. They were working and plan-
ning for the snowy months. They raced back and forth. They were gat-
hering food for the long, cold winter days. The large ants carried sticks.
They gathered grass and grain and stored it in their caves.
One sunny day a grasshopper was watching the busy little ants. They
were racing back and forth. "Why not come and chat with me," said the
Grasshopper, "instead of working in that way?" "Why are they so indus-
trious on such a beautiful, warm, and sunny day? I guess they just don't
know how to have a good time."
The industrious little ants continued to work. They didn't stop a mo-
ment to talk to the grasshopper. One of the ants looked up at the gras-
shopper and said to himself, "Why is he staring and laughing at us? I bet
he'll pay the price of hunger when winter
comes. "
Wintertime came. Snow covered the
green fields, and the grain disappeared.
One winter day some of the ants .crawled
out of their ant-hills onto the snow to look
around. There was the long-legged gras-
shopper, who looked very pale and thin.
He told the ants that he was dying of hun-
ger and that he needed something to eat.
He said that he had no food and that he
could not find any food in the ice and
snow.

"You acted so smart in the summertime, Mr. Grasshopper. You told
us that we were crazy working so hard. Now you are the one who is
hungry, and we are the ones who are laughing. Who is crazy now?" one
of the ants asked with a grin on his face.
The little ants looked up at the big, starving grasshopper and waited
for a reply.
Then the long-legged grasshopper said, "I was too busy. I was ma-
king music and enjoying the summertime sun."
All of the ants looked at the grasshopper and laughed at him.
The smallest ant moved forward and said, "Just a moment, Mr. Gras-
shopper. Even though we don't feel sorry for you, we don't want you to
go hungry. You may have some of our grass and grain this time. But we
hope that you have learned that hunger is the price you pay for not plan-
ning ahead. There's a time for work and a time for play."

The Ant and the Grasshopper
Narrator One summer day a grasshopper was jumping and singing.
An ant was passing by. He was carrying some corn
to the nest.
Grasshopper Hello. How are you?
Ant Fine, thank you! And how are you?
Grasshopper I'm fine. \/'tJhy not come and chat with me instead
of working in that way?
Ant I'm storing up food for the winter. I advise you to do
the same. We have been storing food for several weeks
al ready.
Grasshopper Why bother about winter? We have plenty of food
at present.
Narrator When the winter came the grasshopper had no food.
He found himself dying of hunger. The ant was not
hungry. Every day he ate corn and grain.
Ant Hello, Mr. Grasshopper. You look very pale and thin.
Grasshopper I'm dying of hunger. I need something to eat. I have
no food. I can't find any food in the ice and snow.
Ant You acted so smart in the summer time, Mr. Grasshop-
per. You told us that we were crazy working so hard. Now
you are the one who is hungry, and we are the ones who
are laughing. Who is crazy now?
Grasshopper I was making music in summer. I was enjoying
the summer time sun.
The smallest Ant Just a moment, Mr. Grasshopper. Even though we
don't feel sorry for you, we don't want you to go
hungry.
You may have some grass and grain this time. We
hope that you have learned that hunger is the price
you pay for not planning ahead. There is a time for
work and a time for play.
Moral: It is best to prepare for the days of necessity.
56. Write about:
How can you tell an insect from other creatures?
How many legs does an insect have?
What are the parts of an insect body?
Why aren't spiders insects?
What are some relatives of the grasshoppers?
Are the grasshoppers the most musical of insects?
57. As the grasshopper write a letter to the ant and ask him for
help. Tell him how wrong you were not to work in summer.

the number of spaces that you rolled. If
you answer incorrectly. roll the dice and
go backward that many spaces. or else
return to START if you cannot go that far

58. As the Ant answer the grasshopper's letter and explain why
you cannot help him.
'Dear Mr. G-rassh0t'rer,
59. Design the house for the grasshopper.
60. Design the house for the ant.
61. Draw a map to the ant's house and write how you can get there.
62. Select any character and try to put yourself in his place. How
would you react to the situation? Write your ideas using the
first person.
63. Write your own fable. Present it to the school library for ot-
hers to enjoy.
64. Update the fable. Instead of the grasshopper who sang all
summer, it could be about the boy who wasted away time
until it came for the test. What were the consequences?
65. Work together in groups to publish a newspaper called "The
Animal Gazette."
Report the plot of the fable as a new event. Be sure to include
who, when, where and what happened.
Write the headline as it would appear in a newspaper. Re-
member that there should be an editorial in the newspaper.
66. Make a review on insects. Read this information. You can use
it in the newspaper.
The Adult Insect
How can you tell an insect from other creatures?
Is a spider an insect? How about a scorpion? Are crabs and lobsters really
big insects that live in the water?
To find the answer, let's look at a good example of an insect - the butter-
fly. Think of the ways in which the butterfly is different from a spider. First,
there are big wings. Of all the crawling creatures, only insects have wings.
Although spiders may sometimes sail through the air at the end of a long,
thin, silk thread, like a parachute, no spider can really fly.
How many legs does an insect have?
Count the number of legs on a butterfly. You'll find that there are six legs.
A spider has eight. Crabs and lobsters have ten. Other creatures may have
even more. But an insect has just six legs as an adult.
What are the parts of an insect's body?
Another way to identify an insect is to count the number of main body parts. -
Looking at the butterfly, you can see that it has three main body sections:
1} a head
2} a chest with legs
3} a tail.
Why aren't spiders insects?
The spider seems to have only two parts. Crabs seem to have only one.
Scorpions have many. And they all have many legs and no wings. So they are
not insects.
How many kinds of insects are there?
Nobody knows exactly how many kinds of insects there are, but we are
sure that there must be more than a million different kinds. Some scientists
think there may be seven or eight million kinds - perhaps even more. But we
do know that there are more kinds of insects crawling and swimming and fly-
ing around than all the other kinds of animals put together.
How much does an insect eat?
Who eats more food - you or your parents? Many growing insects eat
much more than their mother and father eat together. They may eat more
than their own weight in food each day. They are growing so fast that they
never seem to get enough food.
Do you know that Grasshoppers are the most musical of insects? They
make most of the insect sounds we hear. Do you know that cockroaches are
the relatives of grasshoppers, and eat nearly everything? They eat even glue
from the back of postage stamps.

selves and others, too.

YOUR F MIL Y TREE
.
Genealogy is the study of families. Through genealogy, you can discover a
lot about your roots. You can learn who your ancestors are, when and where
they were born, who they married, how many children they had) and when they
died.
One of the best ways to show how you are related to other people in your
family is by drawing a diagram called a family tree. It is called a family tree
because the farther back in time you trace your ancestors, the more "bran-
ches" your family tree will contain.
A family tree can be simple or complex. A complex family tree shows the
dates and places where family members were born, married, and died. The
following figure is one of the simplest family trees. It shows only dates of birth
and death for a few people.

ES
Most Americans have three names: a first name, a middle name, and a last
name. The first name and the middle names are given names (the names on the
birth certificate). Some people do not have a middle name. The last name, or
surname, is the family name and comes from the father's or husband's last
name.
Listed below are the names of famous people:
Roosevelt, Theodore (1858-1919). 26th U.S. President (1901-1909).
Roosevelt, Franklin Delano (1882-1945). 32th U.S. President (1933-1945).
Kennedy, John Fitzgerald (1917-1963). 35th U.S. President (1961-1963).
Keller, Helen Adams (1880-1968). American author and lecturer.
Morse, Finley Breese (1791-1872). American painter and inventor (tele-
graphy code and instruments).
Dickinson, Emily Elizabeth (1830-1886). American poet.
Sir Charles Spenser Chaplin (1889-1977). British-born actor, director, and
producer.
Questions for conversation:
1) Please write your whole name in your native language.
2) In your country, how many names do people usually have? Which is your
given name? Which is your family name? What are the customs for giving
names in your country?
3) In the United States sometimes boys are named after their fathers and
grandfathers. If a son is named after his father, he writes Jr. (junior) after
his name. If a grandson is then named after both his father and grandfat-
her, he writes III (the third) after his name. Is that a custom in your native
country?
7. Your name is very special because it tells who you are. Find out
more about your name by answering these questions. (You may
have to ask your parents for some of the information.)
1 } What is your name?
2) What does your name mean?
3} Are you named after a relative or a special person? Who is that person?
4} Do you know any other people with your name? Who are they?

9. Read and find out.
In the United States dating starts early. In some families thirteen- and four-
teen-year-old boys and girls go out on dates. When young teenagers go on
dates they often go with a group, and usually the group has a chaperon. But
older teenagers usually do not have a chaperon on their dates.
When a third person arranges a date between two strangers, it is a blind
date. Some people send information about themselves to a computer dating
bureau, which matches them with blind dates.
In the past it was customary for a boy to pay for a date. Sometimes today
a girl pays for herself. This is called going dutch. Frequently a boy asks a girl
for a date, but more and more often girls are asking boys for dates.
Answer the questions:
1 ) Do young people go on dates in your native country? How young are they
when they begin dating?
2) Have you ever had a blind date? What do you think of this custom?

SUMMER OBS
The summer jOb is a tradition among students of American schools and univer-
sities. Long before the end of the school year, students begin their search for jobs
during vacation (June, July, August). Students send letters to businesses, and talk
to employers about job opportunities during the summer.
Reasons for wanting a summer job vary from student to student. Some work to
help pay their school expenses; others work to gain experience in their chosen
professions; still others work just for the fun of it.
Paperboy, typist, construction worker, salesclerk, baby-sitter, factory-worker,
waiter or waitress - these are some of the more common jobs that students seek
during the summer months.

Cinderella
By Charles Perrault
Story summary
1) Suddenly, Cinderella's fairy godmother appeared and told her that she
would see to it that she pould go. The fairy godmother turned a pumpkin into a
beautiful coach; six mic into six horses; a rat into a coachman; and six lizards \
into footmen. Then she turned Cinderella's rags into a beautiful gown and )
gave her a lovely pair of little glass slippers. As the coach pulled away, the fairy
godmother warned Cinderella to leave before the stroke of midnight. She told
her that at midnight all would be as it had been before the magic spell.
2) The prince found the slipper and pronounced that he would marry the
maiden whose foot fit the slipper. His servant carried the slipper from home to
home and tried it on all the young maidens. At last he came to the home of
Cinderella and her stepsisters. Each stepsister tried to squeeze her foot into
the slipper, but could not. When Cinderella asked to try it on, her stepsisters
laughed. But the gentleman said that he had been ordered to try it on all the
young ladies of the kingdom.
3) Forced by her cruel stepmother and stepsisters to do all the work, Cin-
derella often sat by the chimney when her work had been done. In fact, this is
how she got her name; they called her Cinderella because she was always
covered with cinders.
4) Cinderella arrived at the ball, and the prince fell in love with her at first
sight. The two danced all night. Then, at 11 :45, Cinderella ran off as quickly as
she could. She arrived home just before her stepsisters. When her stepsisters
returned, they told Cinderella about the beautiful princess who had appeared
at the ball.

European languages. His most popular book is IIThree men in a boat."
Absent-mindedness
By Jerome K. Jerome
Mrs. Pratt went to see her mother. Her husband said that he would
come later with the baby and a complete change of clothing.
At eleven o'clock sharp Pratt started on his way with the baby carriage.
"I know I forgot something," muttered Pratt. He stopped for the fourth time to
scratch his head. "Blanket, hat, diapers, socks," he thought. "No, I have those
things. There is something missing. I will start at the baby's head and work dow-
nwards. I have a hat, sweater, pants, and socks. What did I forget?"
Pratt started with the socks and worked up to the hat. Then he went thro-
ugh a day in baby's life from morning until night. Pratt still did not remember.
He was walking slowly when he met his friend, Stillkins. "Stillkins," said
Pratt, "think about your family. Tell me what your babies wear from morning
until night."
"Seems to me," said the amazed Stillkins, "you are thinking too hard. II
"You see," added Pratt, "I'm taking the baby to his mother, but I forgot
one of his things. Can you remind me what it is."
Stillkins suggested, "Sweater?"
"No, I've thought about that a dozen times. II
Stillkins added, "Diapers? Socks? Pants?"
Pratt listened to the hints, but said that he had all of those things. Stil-
Ikins started to make some wild guesses.
"A teddy-bear? A doll?"
Pratt shook his head to say no. Stillkins became interested in the prob-
lem. He forgot his own business and walked on with Pratt.
In a little while they met their friend, Mowitt.
Pratt said, "Mowitt, I forgot something for the baby. Perhaps you can
tell me what it is?"
"Diapers," said Mowitt. Pratt yelled at him, and Stillkins
added a few words.
Mowitt gave a few more suggestions. Mowitt decided to
join Stillkins and Pratt. He argued fiercely with Stillkins abo-
ut how to dress a baby.
Pratt's steps became slower and slower as he approac-
.a hed his destination. By the time they reached the gate of the
» ' baby's grandmother, the group had increased in number.
Each man was loudly telling his opinion about what a three-
.<;.
,. week old baby would and would not wear.
..... et. ,'_ (i riagTeh to :;.ad while Pratt pulled the baby car-
q; Two cries of feminine delight greeted Pratt. Pratt's wife
and her mother ran down the path to meet him.
"Our little darling!" said Mrs. Pratt as she put her hands
under the hood.
Then she stared angrily at Pratt, and Pratt's knees shook.
"I know I forgot something, Lizzie," he said. I have been
trying to remember. Stillkins and Mowitt tried to help me
remember ."
"Where is the baby?" yelled Mrs. Pratt.

Etiquette is based on three very important principles:
Treat others as you want to be trea-
ted. Every one of us has to be treated with
kindness and respect. If we hope to receive
kindness and respect from other people, we
must treat them with the same.
Beauty is as beauty does. This means
that our personal beauty depends on our be- ,
haviour rather than on our physical appea-
ranee. I n other words, it is how we act rather
than how we appear that makes us ugly or
beautiful. No matter what we look like, crude
behaviour can make us ugly, while gracious
behaviour can make us beautiful in a very
special way.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever!
Think about it. When you are around somet-
hing that is ugly, you feel sad and depressed.
On the other hand, when you are around so-
mething that is beautiful you feel inspired and
happy.
Being around a person who is ugly becau-
se of crude behaviour is often sad and dep-
ressing. However, being around a person
who is beautiful because of gracious beha-
viour is often inspiring. Generally speaking,
people do not want to be around a person
who makes them feel depressed. Instead,
they want to be around someone who makes
them feel good.
LITENESS
"Behaviour is
a mirror in which
everyone displays
his image."

Writing invitation cards
2. Read the following and try to remember.
People send invitations on different occasions.
Your invitation will be a gracious one if it includes all of this necessary infor-
mation:
Who ... is being invited.
What ... the event is.
Why... the event is taking place.
When... the event is taking place (the ex-
act date, and the time it is to begin and end).
Where ... the event is taking place (the
address and telephone number).
Whenever you receive an invitation, it is
important that you R.S.V.P.
What does R.S.V.P. mean?
R.S.V.P. stands for repondez, s'il vous
plait. These are French words which mean
"please reply."
To R.S.V.P. means to tell the person who
sent you the invitation whether you will attend
the event.

Thank-you notes "
It is very common in Britain and America to write a letter to thank someone
for a meal or a birthday party. You often write this kind of note on a pretty card.
Every thank-you letter should include:
the date,
a greeting,
a sentence which says thank you for the
specific visit/ gift/ special deed,
one or two sentences explaining why you
are thankful, or in what way you appreciated
the visit/ gift/ special deed,
an ending J including your name.
To make sure the letter gets to the right
person, you will need to address the envelope
correctly.
If you are sending a letter to:
a boy of 13 years or less, put the word
Master before his name,
a girl of 13 years or less, put the word
Miss before her name,
a male of 14 years or more, put the title
Mr. before his name,
a female of 14 years or more, put the title
Ms. before her name.

Men do not usually use "Love" when writing to each other. They can use
"Regards", "Yours", or just sign their name.
Both men and women should be careful about writing "Love" to each other,
as the meaning might be misunderstood.
Use another way to end if you are not sure.
Writing to someone who is very close to you,
End like this:
Love, Lots of love,

DAUGHTER,
YOU'RE VERY SPECIAL TO ME
May 8, 1994
My dearest Joan,
Every year at Mother's Day I think, "I should be telling Joan how
proud I am to be her mother instead of the other way around".
Words cannot convey the joy and pride I have always felt in
being your mother. So many parents are ashamed of their child-
ren and their actions but with us you have always been a source
of pride.
We have rejoiced to observe what a good mother you are. You 1.. ·
have made sure you didn't make the mistakes I made. In years
to come your girls won't remember how clean the floors were or
how good their meals were but they'll always remember the time
you spent doing things for and with them.
Kirk has always been a wonderful father. He takes up so much time
with them and shows an interest in all their activities.
Throughout your life you have always shown the greatest love
and concern. I hear so many mothers say how their daughters
always criticize and make demands on them but you have always
showed the greatest respect.
No one could have a better son than Kirk has been to us. He has
always been so caring, considerate, and understanding. He always se-
ems to be concerned about our life and takes time to listen to all our
health problems and activities. We love him very much.
Natalie and Alison show the results of excellent parenting.
They are so dependable, independent, thoughtful.
They are also concerned about doing well in school, and enjoy
sports.
And so, on this Mothers Day, I want you to know you and your
family are our greatest joy. We love you with all our hearts.
Mother & Daddy

Mark Twain
Mark Twain constantly received letters and photographs from men who looked
like him. One was from Florida and the likeness, as shown by the man's pictu-
re, was really remarkable - so remarkable, indeed, that Mr. Clemens sent the
following acknowledgement:
"My dear Sir: I thank you very much for your letter and the photograph. In
my opinion you are certainly more like me than any other of my doubles. In
fact, I am sure that if you stood before me in a mirrorless frame I could shave
by you."
The King and the Painter
There was a king who thought that he co-
uld paint very well. His pictures were bad, but
the people to whom he showed them were
afraid of the king. They all said that they liked
his pictures very much.
One day the king showed his pictures to a
great painter who lived in his country and aS8
ked, "I want to know what you think of my pic-
tures. Do you like them? Am I a good painter,
or not?"
The painter looked at the king' s pictures
and said, "My King, I think that your pictures
are bad, and that you will never be a good
painter. "
The king was very angry and sent the pa-
inter to prison.
After two years the king wanted to see the
painter again.
"I was angry with you," he said, "because you did not like my pictures. Now
forget all about it. You are a free man again, and I am your friend."
For many hours the king talked with the painter, and even asked him for
dinner. After dinner the king showed his pictures to the painter and asked,
"Well, how do you like them now?"
The painter did not answer anything. He turned to the soldier, who was
standing near him and said,
"Take me back to prison."

About the author
Carol Ryrie Brink was born in Moscow, Idaho, on December 28, 1895.
Carol loved living in Moscow, Idaho. She enjoyed the blue mountains, co-
lourful wild flowers, and the great variety of birds. Since Moscow was a small
town, everyone knew everyone else, and neighbours seerned more like family.
Carol's father was so popular that he became the town's first mayor.
She had quite a few pets, including a pony. She loved to tell herself stories
as she rode her pony in the hills of Moscow.
Carol went to college in Idaho and California. After she graduated, she
married Raymond Brink. a
Carol Ryrie Brink has written several books besides Caddie Woodlawn.
However, Caddie Woodlawn is her favorite. In 1935, Carol won the John New-
bery Medal for this book.
The Rose is Red
Caddie went back to school in February. She
was glad to be back at school in time for Valenti-
ne's Day, because that was always fun. On that
day most of the children exchanged comics, and
the girls got pretty Valentine's greeting cards.
Tom had been thoughtful for several days be-
fore Valentine's Day.
"Caddie," he said, "I wish I had a silver dollar
like you have! Why don't you spend it for Valenti-
nes?"
"A whole silver dollar for Valentines!" cried
Caddie. She felt a little superior to Tom because
she knew that he could never save his money.
"Well, maybe not all of it," said Tom. "But you
just ought to see the beauties they've got down
at Dunnville store."
Caddie considered the matter. It did not occur to her that Tom was hinting
at a loan. But she kept her dollar for so long that she had grown a little rniserly.
She had saved six pennies besides her silver dollar, and these she put in her
pocket on February thirteenth. After school that day she started for the Dun-
nville store. Hetty and Warren went home across the fields. But where was
Tom? He had been the first one out of the schoolhouse, and now he was now-
here to be seen. Caddie started running. As she came in sight of the Dunnvile
store, she saw a familiar figure disappearing into the back door. Tom! But why
the back door? And why was Tom so mysterious these days?
Caddie went in and chose six penny comics. One for Tom, one for Warren,
one for Hetty, and the rest for Maggie,_ Jane, and Lida. She was amazed at the

sight of the most beautiful card that she had ever seen. It was all paper lace
and roses and violets, and in the center of a pink heart was printed:
The rose is red,
The violet's blue,
Sugar is sweet,
And so are you.
Caddie was sorry that she had left her dollar at home. This was so beauti-
ful! But she wouldn't know to whom to give it. She wasn't "sweet on" anybody.
"How much is it?" she asked the storekeeper just to satisfy her curiosity.
"Fifty cents," Mr. Adams replied, "but I guess it's sold, Caddie. There's a
young man in the back room here peeling potatoes to pay for it."
"Oh!" Said Caddie. Now she knew. It was Tom! But was it for her, this lovely
Valentine? It seemed impossible. Tom always gave her comics, and she thought
them fun. Yet who was a better friend to Tom than she? No one, surely. She
went home slowly, thinking. She knew that Tom wouldn't want anyone to know
that he was peeling potatoes to earn a Valentine, so she locked his secret in her
heart. It was the first secret she had ever known him to have from her.
The next day the schoolhouse was full of whispering. Miss Parker tried to
keep what order she could. Valentine's Day only came once a year.
Mysterious envelopes kept appearing on desks; children were excited.
Caddie hastily scanned her Valentines. She hadn't expected the "rose is
red" one, but she couldn't stop looking to make sure. But it wasn't there. The
comic ones were very funny, though, and there was a little bag of candy hearts
from Sam Flusher. Altogether it was a good day.
Still the "rose i$ red" Valentine did not appear, and Caddie began to think
that Tom had got tired of peeling potatoes before he had paid for it. Then,
when they came in from afternoon recess, she saw it lying on Katie Hyman's
desk. Katie saw it, too, and blushed. It was the first Valentine that she had had
that day, because she was so shy that no one gave her penny comics. Her little
slim fingers trembled as she opened it. Everybody who had gathered around
said: UOh!" because they recognized it as the best Valentine in the Dunnville
Store. Katie turned it around and looked all over it, but there was no name on
it anywhere. She was smiling more than they had ever seen her smile. Her eyes
sparkled, almost as if they had tears in them. Caddie looked at Tom, but he
was standing by the stove finishing an apple and talking with some of the boys,
as if he had never heard of Valentines in his life.
After school Hetty was all excited.
"Caddie, did you see that great, big Valentine Katie Hyman got? Who do
you suppose sent it? There wasn't any name, but I'm sur that Tom sent it.
Don't you think so? I'm going to tell everybody so."

Caddie's heart jumped. If Hetty told, they would make Tom's life miserable.
"Why, Hetty," she said gaily. "Who put that in your head? You know Tom
can't save a cent. Then how do you suppose he could buy the finest Valentine
in the store without any money?"
"That's so," said Hetty. "I know! Maybe she got it for herself, just to make
us think she had a beau."
Busy with this happy thought, Hetty broke into a run. Caddie walked along
more slowly. She was thinking: "I do everything with Tom. I'm much more fun
than Katie. Why, she's afraid of horses and snakes and she wouldn't cross the
river. I don't believe she's spoken three words to Tom in her life. But she's
what you call a little lady, and I'm just a tomboy. Maybe there's something in
this lady business after all."
But just then Warren caught up with her and said: "Hey, let's go coasting!
All this silly Valentine, sugar-plum stuff!" And she raced away with him, laug-
hing, and eager to be the first one on the hill with her sled.

. lead and emember or all our life. Do you think you are
strong enough to ollow this advice?
Don't smoke. It looks smart in old movi-
es, and it seems that everybody does it. But
that is just a clever form of advertising.
Smoking is unhealthy.
It is unpleasant and harmful to non-smo-
kers, too, and a serious fire risk. It is offensive
in public places like cafes and schools. Any
form of addiction or excess is unhealthy,
whether it is tobacco, alcohol, drugs, sugary
things, or money. It may be a sign of not gro-
wing up and not being able to cope.
Do you know that 16th of November is
the day when people all over the world quit
smoking?
Do you know that every year 3 million pe-
ople die of smoking?
Do you know that your life is 25% shorter
if you smoke?
Do you know that only 13% of the popu-
lation smoke in the USA, but in Russia - more
than 76%. 400,000 people die in Russia
every year as a result of smoking. Imagine
that a whole town like Ufa disappears every
year.
In Britain smoking is now forbidden in many
public places, e. g. on the underground, on sta-
tions, in shops, in theatres and in cinemas.
My mother died at the age of 62. She smoked. But her sister and
brother are still alive, they are in the late eighties. They never smoke.
My grandfather Sergei Dmitrievich Krukov lived as long as 94. He never
smoked. He always taught me: "Those who smoke are weak because if
they see somebody smoking they join them. Only strong people don't
follow the crowd. If you want to be a strong personality, quit smoking
today if you smoke" (!atyana Klenlentyeva).

9. Here are some letters from merican teachers. Listen and read
them, please.
April 18, 1996
Dear friends,
I believe it is important for me to show the children the same respect that
I want them to show me and each other. All of my classroom rules are based
on respect for each other. Our classroom motto is "treat others as you want
them to treat you." It is the Golden Rule.
I believe it is also very important to understand the child. Children learn by
being involved, by doing. They need to talk and interact with me and with
each other. We have times of quiet listening and movement and interaction.
Children need to know that the classroom is a safe place to discover and to
make mistakes. They will only learn if they are willing to take a risk. They
need to feel that the classroom is theirs; that they are an important element
and have opportunities to make some choices.
Every month we have a special motto.
Here is a list of some mottos:
OBEDIENCE - Doing what I am told, when I am told, with a good attitude.
LOVE - Meeting another's needs unselfishly.
PROMPTNESS - Being on time. Remember, only time can't be replenis-
hed.
FAIRNESS - Being honest and just with others.
KINDNESS - Tender and gentle words and ways.
GENEROSITY - Sharing what I have with a happy spirit.
COURAGE - Boldness to try difficult things that are good; strength not to
follow the crowd.
-.

13. Listen and read.
Hello children! ,
t
My name is Virginia Brickman and I live in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. I work at the
Jim Cherry Teacher Center. I am very interested in teaching children with disabi-
lities, that is, children who may not be able to walk, talk, hear, see, or learn as well
as you can. In my job, I show teachers and parents how to help children with disa-
bilities learn. Sometimes children with disabilities can learn using special compu-
ters or other learning tools. In the United States, most children with disabilities go
to school along with all other children in the neighbourhood. We think that all
children learn best this way.
If you know a child with a disability, I hope you will try to be a friend to
this student.
Here is a little quiz to let you see how much you know about disabilities.
Circle the correct answer:
1. All disabilities are caused by disease or sickness. True False
2. When you meet someone who is blind, you should
always introduce yourself to that person. True False
3. People who can't talk are retarded or slow. True False

'I KEY
1. False. Some disabilities can be caused by disease. Others are the result
of accidents, genetic factors, and a number of other causes.
2. True. Introductions are always necessary when meeting new people. With
young people who are blind, it is very important to explain who you are - because
they cannot see you and will only know you by your voice and description.
3. False. Not always. Inability to speak may also result from damage to the
throat, deafness.
"How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young,
compassionate with the striving, and tolerant of both the weak and the
strong because someday in life you will have been one or all of these. 11
George Washington Carver (1864-1943), an American educator, botanist
and chemist, developed useful products from peanuts, sweet potatoes, and
soyabeans.
14. Listen and read.
My name is Joan Hensel, and I am a school secretary. I would like to
tell you a little about schools in the United States.
There are three types of schools: public schools, private schools, and
home schools. Most students attend public schools. These schools are
run by the government of a city. The citizens of the city pay taxes to pay
for the school buildings, teachers' salaries and equipment and supplies
for the schools. All citizens of the community must pay taxes to support
the schools. Public schools are usually large. The families who want their
children to attend private schools must pay tuition. Tuition payments pay
for the teachers' salaries and for buildings and equipment. Private scho-
ols are usually smaller than public schools. Some families choose not to
send their children to school at all. They educate their children at home.

complete academic courses and to learn many life skills. Home schoolers
believe that children learn best at home and that parents are the teachers
for their own children.
Students who attend public and private schools usually begin their
formal education when they are six years old and continue for at least
twelve years. Grades 1-5 make up the elementary school. Middle school
consists of grades 6-8. High school is grades 9-12. When students have
completed the 12th grad.e, they receive a high school diploma. At this
point, students may end their formal education, or they may go to colle-
ge. In college the student will eventually specialize in one area of study,
such as mathematics, science, history, literature, theology, or foreign
language. At the end of four years, he or she will earn a Bachelor degree.
The student who wants to continue his or her education after college may
enter graduate school and work to earn a Master's degree or a doctoral
,
degree. A student may also elect to enter a professional school to prepa-
re to be a doctor, dentist, or lawyer.
I am secretary of High School, which is a private school. My job is to
work in the office and to assist the Principal, teachers and students. Our
school is quite small, but we have wonderful teachers and students. Our
students must study hard to learn English literature, history, mathematics,
science, Spanish.
Could you answer my questions, please?
1) In American schools there is much emphasis on writing. Most tests are
written. How are most tests taken in your country?
2) In American education, much emphasis is placed on problem solving and
discussion. There is very little emphasis on memorizing information. In
your country do students memorize very much? Is there much emphasis
on practical problem-solving? Is there much class discussion?
3) In the United States children are required to attend school until they are
sixteen years old. Is education compulsory in your country? How many
years of school are required?
4) What are some differences between schools in the United States and
schools in your country?

Schools in Britain
Children in Britain start school when they are five and stay at school until
they are sixteen or older.
Many children in Britain attend nursery school from the age of about ·
three, but these schools are not compulsory. Compulsory education begins
at the age of five, when children go to primary school. Primary education
lasts for six years. They attend the infan't school from five to seven and then
junior school until they are eleven. Then pupils go to secondary school.
Children study 10 subjects: English, mathematics, science, geography,
history, art, music, physical education and a foreign language. Most secon-
dary schools teach French and some schools offer Spanish, German, Italian
and Russian. The first three are called IIcore" subjects. Pupils take examina-
tions in the core subjects at the age of 7, 11 and 14.
After five years of secondary education, pupils take the General Certifi-
cate of Secondary Education (GCSE) examination. Most pupils take exami-
nations in all subjects.
Compulsory education ends at sixteen. Some people choose to stay at
secondary school for a further two years. Other people leave secondary
school at sixteen and go to colleges of further education.
Higher education begins at eighteen and usually lasts for three or four
years. Students go to universities, polytechnics or colleges of higher educa-
tion. There are now about 80 universities.
Some parents choose to send their children to private schools where they
pay for their education.
State education is free. More than 90% of Britain's children attend state
schools.

Schools in Russia
19. listen, read the text and say when and where the Lyceum
appeared. In wha Lyceum did A. Pushkin study?
Pushkin in the Lyceum
Among the gardens and parks of the town Push kin we can see a light co-
loured building of the lyceum. Before 1918 Pushkin was called Tsarskoe Selo. At
the beginning of the 19th century the great Russian poet and writer
A. Pushkin studied there. G. R. Derzhavin blessed his first steps in poetry. At
Tsarskoe Selo Alexander Pushkin got acquainted with historian Karamsin, poets
Zhukovsky, Batushkov, Vyazemsky and philosopher Chaadaev.
The name of an educational institution - "lyceum" appeared in ancient
times. One of the suburbs of the Greek town Athens was called Lykeion.
The temple of Apollo was there. According to the belief of ancient people,
Apollo was God of the Sun, the protector of poetry, music and art. Famous
"gymnasium" was situated in the marvellous garden of the temple. The
greatest philosopher of ancient times, Aristotel, taught there. The lyceum
in Tsarskoe Selo was a symbol of the great traditions of the ancient school.

Einstein for a Day
Albert Einstein is one of the world's most brilliant and respected scientists.
He is known for formulating the theory of relativity, which played a criticaJ role in
the development of atomic energy. Einstein had a fine sense of,.humbur.
There's an amusing story about how Einstein was traveling to universities
in a chauffeured car, giving lectures on relativity. One day the chauffeur said.
"Dr. Einstein, I've heard this lecture about 30 times. I know it by heart, and I
bet I could give it myself. tJ
"Well, I'll give you the chance," said Einstein. "They won't recognize me
at the school. When we get there I'll put on your cap, and you introduce
yourself as me and give the lecture. 'J
The chauffeur gave Einstein's lecture without a single mistake. When he
finished, he started to leave, but one of the professors stopped him to ask a
complex question. The chauffeur thought fast. "That problem is so simple,"
he said, "It's a surprise that you're asking. In fact, to show you how simple it
is, I'm going to ask my chauffeur to come up here and answer your question."

"It's nothing much," they said in class. lilt doesn't matter if she misses a

So children insects said they were sorry their friend was ill, and that was
that. Only Dragonfly couldn't stop worrying. She sat there looking very mise-
rable, rubbing her eyes, and then began to cry.
uOh, oh," she wept. "If only little Bee could get well again quickly. How
shall I get on without her?"
"Just look!" the Mosquito exclaimed. "Who would have thought that gig-

And nobody knew what a good reason the Dragonfly had for crying. She
used to copy her homework from the Bee.

A Lesson
By Jerome K. Jerome
1) I remember a hot afternoon at school. The class was for English literatu-
re, and the lesson began with the reading of a poem. The reading finished, we
closed our books, and the Professor, a white-haired old gentleman, kindly,
suggested our telling in our own words what we had just read.
"Tell me," said the Professor, encouragingly, "what it is all about?"
2) "Please, sir," said the first boy - "it is about a maiden."
"Yes," agreed the Professor; "but I want you to tell me in your own words.
We do not speak of a maiden, you know; we say a girl. Yes, it is about a girl.
Go on."
"A girl," repeated the boy, embarrassed, uwho lived in a wood."
"What sort of a wood?" asked the Professor.
The boy examined his inkpot carefully, and then looked at the ceiling.
"Come," the Professor, grew impatient, "you have been reading about
this wood for the last ten minutes. Surely you can tell me something about
.t "
I .
3) "Please, sir, it was the usual sort of a wood," said the boy.
UTell him what sort of wood," said the Professor, pointing to the second
lad.
The second boy said it was a Ugreen wood". This annoyed the Professor
still n1ore; he called the second boy a blockhead, though really I cannot see
why, and passed on to the third who, for the last minute, had been sitting
apparently on hot plates with his right arm waving up and down like a se-
maphore signal.
4) "A dark and gloomy wood," shouted the third boy, with much relief to
his feelings.
"A dark and gloomy wood," repeated the Professor with approval. "And
why was it dark and gloomy?"
The third boy was still equal to the occasion.
"Because the sun could not get inside it."
The Professor felt he had discovered the poet of the class.
"Because the sun could not get into it, or, better, because the sunbeams
could not penetrate. And why couldn't the sunbeams penetrate there?"
uPlease, sir, because the leaves were too thick."
5) "Very well," said the Professor, "the girl lived in a dark and gloomy
wood. Now what grew in this wood?" he pointed to the fourth boy.
"Please, sir, trees, sir."
"And what else?"
"Toadstools, sir." This after a pause.
The Professor was not quite sure about the toadstools, but on referring to
the text, he found that the boy was right: toadstools had been mentioned.
6) "Quite right," said the Professor, "toadstools grew there. And what
else? What do you find under the trees in a wood?"
"Please, sir, earth, sir."

"No, no; what grows in a wood besides trees?"
"Oh, please, sir, bushes, sir." -
"Bushes; very good. Now, we are getting on. In this wood there were tre-
es and bushes. And what else?"
"Please, sir, there was a torrent there."
"Quite right; and what did the torrent do?"
"Please, sir, it gurgled."
"No, no. Streams gurgle, torrents..."
"Roar, sir. II
"It roared. And what made it roar?"
7) This was a poser. One boy - he was not our prize intellect, I admit-
suggested the girl.
To help us the Professor put his question in another form:
"When did it roar?"
One of the boys explained that it roared when it fell down among the
rocks, and the Professor agreed with it.
"And what lived in this wood besides the girl?" was the next question.
"Please . sir, birds, sir."
"Yes, birds lived in this wood. What else?"
8) Birds seemed to have exhausted our ideas.
"Come," said the Professor, "what are animals with tails, that run up trees?"
We thought for a while, then one of us suggested cats.
This was an error; the poet had said nothing about cats; squirrels was
what the Professor was trying to get.
That is all I remember of this lesson on literature.

A typical day at my ideal school
A typical day at my ideal school. I get up at nine o'clock. I have a cup of
orange or carrot juice. We have three lessons a day on one subject. The first
lesson is English Grammar. We play different Grammar Games. While we are
playing the games, the teacher comes to see us from time to time and helps
us with our work. We are listening to music while we are having our lesson.
Then we go to the computer room and do some research and tests. We work
there till twelve which is lunchtime. I have lunch in our schools' cafe.
The afternoon lesson begins at two o'clock and lasts till three o'clock.
Then we go to the library. We prepare small plays and act them out.
Sometimes we go on an excursion or have class discussions.
There are excellent facilities at our school. There is an indoor swirnming
pool, a sports centre, tennis courts and a theatre workshop.
When I come home I have about an hour's homework to do. Usually 'l-le
write essays. We have no marks in school. Our teacher assesses us with the
following words:
"excellent", "very good", "improving", "neat work", "do over", "incomple-
te", "see me", "not satisfactory", "spelling errors", "watch punctuation". .'
44. In groups. Discuss your ideal school. Think about these things:
1 ) The number of lessons.
2) The number of subjects to study.
3) The number of students in a class.
4) The time that lessons begin and end.
5} The number of days at school per week.
6) The structure of the lessons (\vith a teacher or self-study).
7) The facilities for students (cafe, dining room, sports facilities).
8) The amount of homework.

English saying
Good manners
.. .Well, you can be polite. Good manners include saying uplease" whenever
you ask for anything and "thank you" when anybody does anything for you.
Good manners include:
NOT spitting in public.
NOT walking round in crowds forcing people off the pavement.
NOT dropping your empty crisp and sweet packets in the street.
Not making a lot of noise in public, especially at night when other people
are sleeping.
Most English of customs is QUEUING.
Queuing, means standing in a single line and waiting your turn. It is done at
bus stops, in shops, at the cinema and at taxi ranks.
Queuing is a great English tradition.
It also helps if you show the driver your pass without waiting to be asked (or
offer him your fare, preferably in coins not notes), sit rather than stand, but
offer your seat if the bus is full to any old people or pregnant women left stan-
ding - not that every young local person does!
If you are going to use buses often, it is worth buying a bus pass which will
allow you to travel as often as you like !ithout further payment.
You are less likely to upset a crowd of Eng lish people by tearing all your
clothes off and jumping up and down on their national flag (they would pretend
not to notice), than by pushing in front in a queue.

Safety in the city
- Never take lifts from strangers.
- Do not stay out very late, and do not walk home on your
own. If so, walk along the centre of the path on well-lit streets
if possible.
- Avoid empty underground platforms. Stay close to the
exit if you find yourself on a deserted platform.
- Never carry your address and keys in the same bag;
your house could be the next target of a thief.
- If you are threatened, give up your handbag rather than
risk injury.
- If you see someone who has been or is being attacked,
don't offer help, you may be attacked yourself, telephone the
police.
REMEMBER: Traffic drives on the "wrong" side here. So
look LEFT before you cross the road.
And a RED FLAG on the beach means don't swim in the
water - it's dangerous.

Hello - my nama is Corinne Sharpe and I work with the British tourist
authority - in London where I live. I have visited Russia many times and hope
that one day you will visit Great Britain, for a holiday or to study English. We
have many interesting places to see -lovely scenery, mountains, lakes and
small villages. There are also many different customs in Scotland, Wales and
England. Please come and visit us one day, you will be very welcome.
When you visit London, the best way to get around is the Londoners' way-
by public transport. Central London and the suburbs are well served by both
the bus and Underground networks.
Londoners call their Underground train network the tube. It's a fast, conve-
nient and very easy way to travel.
London underground
1. The city of London, England, grew rapidiy in the 1800s. The streets of
the city could not hold all the traffic. A '!oung South African named Henry Gre-
athead had a very simple idea. Why not uild tunnels below the streets? Then
trains could carry people through them.
2. Henry Greathead talked about subvays for 20 years. But people who
owned land in London said that they owned the streets as well as all the land
under the streets. The landowners wanted to be paid for the use of this land.
Then the Subway Act of 1884 was passed. This law declared that the streets
and the land under them vere public property. They belonged to everyone. At
last, Henry Greathead could build his subway tunnels.
3. Henry made working underground safer by using new ways to construct
his tunnels. He also invented special tools for the job. Henry built two tubes,
one on top of the other. Inside the tubes,
electric engines pulled five-car trains. They
could carry 160 passengers at 25 miles an
hour. By 1890 the trains ran every three mi-
nutes. The subway was a great success.
Soon, other large cities of the world built
subways. Henry's ideas were used in Paris,
Boston and New York, but he never saw
them. Henry Greathead died in 1895.
The Buses
Londoners are proud of their "big red bu-
ses. "
These days some may not be red, but you
'Nill always be able to recognize them.

Buying your Ticket
There are four kinds of tickets: one-journey bus tickets (sold on the bus);
weekly bus passes covering all of the zones; single or return tube tickets (sold
at the tube station where you start your journey); and Travelcards. Prices vary
according to distance and the number of zones you pass through.
Make sure you keep your ticket until your journey is completed - inspec-
. tors often check them.
Travelcards
You will find Travelcards very convenient for your trips around London.
They give the freedom of London Transport buses and tubes. Travelcards are
excellent value, saving you time and money. Travelcards can be bought for 1
day or 7 days.
Ticket gates
To enter the Utube" system in central London you simply put your ticket
magnetic strip down in the slot on the right side of the gate you want to use.
The gate will open when you remove your ticket. Leave the station in the same
way - your ticket will be automatically returned to you if it is valid for another
journey.
Phones
Telephone calls in the UK are expensive. There are no free local calls.
f you want to use the phone in your host family's home, ask them first and
offer t(} pay for the cost of the call.
You r n make calls from public telephone boxes, which are either red (tra-
ditional) Jr silver (modern). Some take green Phonecards, which you can buy
from the Tourist Information Centre, Post Offices and many other shops dis-
playing a 8T sign in their window. Most phone boxes take coins.
There are public phone boxes outside most train and bus stations, outside
most Post Offices, and throughout the town centre.
It costs the most to make calls 9am-1 pm Monday to Friday. It is cheapest
to call before 8am and after 4 pm.
Useful numbers (You don't need money to dial these from a public call box,
but they are NOT free from a private phone!):
100: The Operator: will help you make a call 24 hours a day.
155: For help in making an International call.
192: For help in finding a UK number, 24 hours a day.
153: For help finding an international number, 24 hours a day.

Lighting up time
A hundred years ago, the lamplighters in London were very busy men. It was
their job, every evening, to light the thousands of gas lamps in the city. The gentle
light from those lamps was all that lit the -foggy streets of Victorian London.
Nowadays we have electric lamps in most of London. They switch them-
selves on and off automatically and do the job of the lamplighter for him. But
some parts of London still have their traditional gas lamps. And on some
evenings you can still see the lamplighter.
Most of the gas lamps are in the parks and outside the royal palaces. The
Queen likes to keep the tradition alive and has gas lamps outside Bucking-
ham Palace and St. James's Palace. Westminster, the home of the Houses
of Parliament, has 400, more than any other part of the capital. Naturally,
traditions are important in that part of London. But perhaps the Law is more
traditionalist than anyone. For at the Temple, where the biggest law courts in
London are, a lamplighter still goes round every evening to light the gas
lamps by hand.
The story of a statue
If you ever come to London you will surely go to Trafalgar Square. The main
feature of the Square is Nelson's Column with the figure of the great seaman
on the top.
Just behind it is the National Gallery where there is one of the finest col-
lections of pictures in the world. In the middle of the road there is an interes-
ting statue which is one of the finest in Great Britain. It is in bronze and rep-
resents Charles I on horseback.
The Statue of Charles I has a very amusing history. After the English Civil
War (1642-1646) it was taken down and sold to a cutler. He immediately
made great numbers of knives and forks with bronze handles. He told every-
body that they were the best knives and that he had made them from the metal
of the statue. They were rapidly bought, both by the friends and the enemies of
the late monarch. The cutler soon made a lot of money and retired from busi-
ness. Some time after the Restoration the government wanted to put up a new
statue to the memory of Charles I. When the cutler heard of this he told the
government that he had hidden the old statue and that he would sell it to them
at a moderate price. They agreed and the monument was put up again in the
place where it stands now.

Ottawa - Canada's capital city
Otta\jva is the capital city of Canada. It is located on the southern bank of
the Ottawa River. Many interesting historical and cultural buildings are found in
Ottawa, such as the Museum of Natural History, Museum of Man, National
Gallery and the National Arts Centre. However, the most important buildings in
Ottawa are the Parliament Buildings. Here the Canadian federal government
discusses and makes laws for Canada.
Ottawa has been called the Tulip City, because every spring the city comes
alive with thousands of tulips from the Netherlands. Queen Juliana started
sending 15,000 tulips a year to Ottawa in 1946 as a way of thanking the Cana-
dian people for the time she spent in Canada with her daughters during World
War II.
Juliana stayed in Ottawa with her family from 1940 to 1945 after the Ne-
therlands was invaded by Germany.
Red and white with single maple leaf flag was adopted.

Sydney
Sydney is Australia's oldest city. Captain Cook stopped near here at Bota-
ny Bay in 1770. The first Europeans who came to Australia put up their tents at
Sydney Cove. Soon the first houses were built, and in only 200 years the city
grew from nothing into a home for of millions of people.
Despite the history, Sydney is the most modern place in Australia. Its
buildings are the highest, its fashions are the newest and its colours are the
brightest. A lot of Australia's exciting cultural life is found in Sydney. Artists,
writers, opera singers and film makers all live here. So some people call the
city "the Paris of the Pacific." But that doesn't seem Quite right. Paris hasn't
got all that sea, sand, sun and surf. Sydneysiders, as well as many visitors to
Australia, come to Bondi Beach to relax and take a rest. Some of them really
relax. Others are too busy - they're jogging, swimming, or riding the great wa-
ves on their surfboards.

A monument to a pest
It has been discovered that the town of Enterprise, in the south of the USA,
has a monument to the weevil, number one pest of cotton-growers.
Why? Because after losing their fight with this pest, the farmers of that area
had to turn to other crops and one of them, peanuts, has since brought thern
more money than they ever made from cotton.
Of course, this must be the only place in the whole world where a pest has
been given such an honour.

The world's best Scottish joker
A little Scottish boy burst into the house and said to his father: "Daddy,
Daddy, I ran home behind the bus and saved ten pence."
His father replied, "You could have done better son. You could have run
home behind a taxi and saved fifty."
A useful piece of advice
"Now, when we cross the street, my dear," said the old lady to her friend,
"don't look round, because if a motor-car hits us in the back, it's their fault not
ours. "
Caution
A man in a bus paid a penny at the end of each stage. This went on for six
stages. At last, when the man was about to leave the bus the conductor asked
him, "Why didn't you pay a sixpence all at once?" - "But what if there was an
accident on the way?" replied the passenger.
The most striking things
"What struck you most on your travels?"
"Other people's umbrellas."
A ready reply
"Say, Jack, can you tell me where the Empire State Building is?"
'lAnd how do you know my name is Jack?"
"I guessed it."
"Are you good at guessing, sir?"
"Fine. "
"Then guess where the Empire State Building is."
In a barber's shop
McNab went into a barber's shop and asked the barber hovi much a haircut

"How much is a shave?" asked McNab.
"Fifty pence," said the barber.
"Shave my head," said McNab.

The first price
A London magazine once organized a competition to discover the most lo-

A Forgetful Tourist
Once a tourist arrived in Paris. It was his first visit there. When he arrived at
the railway station, he at once asked the porter to show him the way to t;,e
nearest post office. There he sent a telegram to his wife in which he informed
her that he had arrived safely. In this telegram he told her the address of the
hotel where he intended to stay.
Then he went direct to the hotel, left his luggage there and went for a walk.
As it was his first visit to the French capital, he
was very much interested to see the streets,
museums and shops of this beautiful city, and
spent the greater part of the day there.
,. ,.(}---. Then he realized he had forgotten the ad-
,

Who could help the poor man? Suddenly he
remembered the telegram which he had sent
to his wife on his arrival. She knew his address
and could help him.
So at night his wife received this extraordi-
nary telegram: "Please send me my address at
once. "

Androcles
A slave named Androcles once escaped from his master and fled to the
forest. As he was wandering about the forest he came upon a Lion lying down
moaning and groaning.
At first he turned to run, but finding that the Lion did not pursue him, he
turned back and went up to him.
As he came near, the Lion put out his paw, which was all swollen and ble-
eding, and Androcles found that a huge thorn had got into it, and was causing
all the pain. He pulled out the thorn and bound up the paw of the Lion, who was
soon able to rise and lick the hand of Androcles.
Then the Lion took Androcles to his cave.
But shortly afterwards both Androcles and the Lion were captured and the
slave was sentenced to be thrown to the Lion, after the latter had been kept
without food for several days. The Emperor and all his Court came to see the
spectacle, and Androcles was led out into the middle of the arena. Soon the

Lion was let loose from his den, and rushed roaring at his victim. But as soon
as he came near to Androcles he recognized his friend, and licked his hand like
a friendly dog. The Emperor, surprised at this, invited Androcles to him, and he
told the Emperor the whole story. Then the slave was pardoned and freed, and
the Lion let loose to his native forest.

Dear Alison,
I want you to come to Russia and visit the land of white nights. We shall go
to St. Petersburg, Petrodvorets, Kizhy and Valaam!
The best time for a trip is from June to July.
Come and have a good time!
The best starting point for a trip is St. Petersburg which we can get to by
plane from Moscow (one hour and a half flying time) or by train (one night). We
shall get to Kizhi and Valaam by a passenger ship from St. Petersburg.
Even if you make your trip in midsummer, take along a sweater and a warm
jacket. Karelian weather is changeable and the evenings are cool and windy.
Yours,
Sasha

The Land of White Nights
The town of Petersburg was founded on 16 May, 1703. Several generati-
ons of talented Russian and foreign architects were engaged in the planning
and construction of Petersburg's downtown. Petersburg is one of the world's
most beautiful cities.
The Summer Garden, the Winter Palace, the Hermitage, the monument to
Peter I, the Russian Museum are the city's remarkable architectural sights.
Soon after Petersburg appeared, it turned into the main center of Russian
science and culture. Outstanding scholars like M. V. Lomonosov, D. I. Mende-
leyev, I. P. Pavlov and many others engaged
themselves in activities of the Academy of
Sciences and the University. A. S. Pushkin,
M. Y. Lermontov, N. A. Nekrasov glorified the
city in many of their works.
There are many memorial places in the city
that relate to life and creative work of the great
Russian writers N. V. Gogol, T. M. Dostoevsky.
the composers M. I. Glinka, P. I. Chaikovskiy,
M. P. Musorgskiy, N. A. Rimskiy-Korsakov, the
painters K. P. Bryullov, I. Y. Repin, I. N. Krams-
koy, V. I. Surikov, etc.
St. Petersburg today is a centre of scien-
ce and culture, well-developed industries
including shipbuilding, a large international
port on the Baltic Sea.

Petrodvorets (Peterhof) Pushkin (Tsarskoe Selo)
Speaking of 5t. Petersburg one may not omit mentioning its famous su-
burbs. Petrodvorets (Peterhof), Pushkin (Tsarskoe Selo), Pavlovsk, Lomono-
sov are museums of history and art. Russian and foreign tourists visit St. Pe-
tersburg suburbs to see outstanding pieces of Russian art.
Magnificent architectural ensembles, sculptures, a unique water-duck,
system for numerous fountains, fine examples of park-landscape art make one
solemnly proud of the generations of Russian people who have managed to
create, in rotten swamp, such great masterpieces of human genius.
Anyone who visits Karelia will always be tempted to come back. Karelia is a
country of one thousand lakes, and more than 23 thousand rivers. Almost all
of them are less than 10 km long.
About half of Karelia's territory is covered with woods, mostly pine and fir.
Let's start on a voyage by the Neva River and Ladoga and Onega Lakes to
the famous islands of Valaam and Kizhy, to see the charming nature of the
northern land.
Kizhy is a small island (7 km long and about one and a half km wide) in lake
Onega, Europe's second largest. The Kizhy is called "Russian Wonder."
The most precious thing in Kizhy is 22-cupola Cathedral of the Transfigura-
tion built in 1714. Its walls, ceilings and roof were made of pine trees without
any nails, using only an axe. The twenty-two cupolas are of different size which
gives the cathedral a fairy-tale look.
We don't know anything about the man of genius who built the it. There is a
legend on Kizhy that this church was created (built) by Master Nestor. Having

Karelia. Wooden church in the village of Man'ga
built it, he threw his axe into Lake Onega with the words, "There has never
been, there isn't and there will never be anything like it."
There is another legend that says that the construction of the Church is
connected with Peter the Great, who drew up the design himself. However,
there is no documentary proof to these two legends.
The island Valaam is the biggest on the Ladoga. There is a monastery on
the island. It was founded by Novgorod townsfolk and stood to defend Russian
land borders, and many times repelled Swedish attacks. The monastery was
ruined in the early XVII century, but restored in the XVIII century. Along with
trees that are common to these latitudes, you can see oak, cedar groves,
alleys of silver fir and fruit gardens.
The magnificent nature of these parts has inspired many Russian painters:
I. I. Shishkin, F. A. Vasilyev, A. I. Kuindzhi. One will never forget the vast, deep
rivers and lakes as great as the sea.
The walls of northern structures were always made of pine. The carpenters
always tried to make the building stand as long as possible. 22 domes are re-
liable protection against the wet. When it rains, water falls from the upper to
the lower domes, which throw water far away from the walls. That is why the
wooden church has managed to survive so long.
There are also other interesting wooden constructions, small chapels, living
houses, etc.
Kizhi! People from every corner of the world keep coming here. They speak
different languages but all agree on one point: Kizhi is incomparable!

If You're Wrong, Admit It
By Dale Carnegie
(Abridged)
I live almost in the geographical centre of greater New York; yet within a
minute's walk of my house there is a wild forest. This unspoiled woodland is
called "Forest Park". I frequently go walking in this park with Rex, my little
Boston bulldog. He is a friendly, harmless little dog, and since we rarely meet
anyone in the park, I take Rex along without a leash or a muzzle.
One day we met a policeman in the park.
"What do you mean by letting that dog run loose in the park without a muzzle and
leash?" he reprimanded me. "Don't you know it is against the law?"
"Yes, I know it is," I replied softly, "but I didn't think he would do any harm
out here. IJ
"You didn't think! You didn't think! That dog might kill a squirrel or bite a
child. Now, I'm going to let you off this time; but if I catch this dog out here
again without a muzzle and a leash, you'll have to tell it to the judge."
I promised to obey.

And I did obey - for a few times. But Rex didn't like the muzzle, and neither
did I; so we decided to take a chance. Everything was lovely for a while. Rex and
I raced over the hill one afternoon and there, suddenly - to my surprise -I saw
"the Majesty of the Law." Rex was out in front, running in the direction of the of-
ficer.
I was in for it. I knew it. So I didn't wait until the policeman started talking. I t
said: "Officer, you've caught me red-handed. I'm guilty. I have no alibis, no excu-
ses. You warned me last week that if I brought this dog out here again without a
muzzle you would fine me."
"Well, now," the policeman answered in a soft tone. "I know it's a temptation to
let a little dog like that have a run out here when nobody is around."
"Sure it's a temptation," I replied, "but it is against the law."
"Well, a little dog like that isn't going to harm anybody,JJ said the policeman.
"No, but he may kill squirrels," I said.
"Well, now, I think you are taking this a bit too seriously," he told me. "I'll tell
you what you do. You just let him run over the hill there where I can't see him-
and we'll forget all about it."
That policeman, being human, wanted a feeling of importance; so when I be-
gan to condemn myself, the only way he could nourish his self-esteem, was to
show mercy.
But suppose I had tried to defend myself - well, did you ever argue with a po-
liceman?
But instead of breaking lances with him, I admitted that he was absolutely right
and I was absolutely wrong; I admitted it quickly, openly, and with enthusiasm.
Isn't it rTiuch easier to listen to self-criticism than to bear condemnation from
alien lips?
Remember the old proverb: "By fighting you never get enough, but by yielding
you get more than you expected."
So if you want to win people to your way of thinking, it would be advisable to
remember the Rule:
If you are wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically.

Today, we have forgotten many survival skills, since we can buy nearly eve-
rything we need.
However, survival situations can still arise.
Preparing to be a survivor
You can greatly improve your survival chances if you try to keep physically
fit. Even half an hour of exercise a day can improve your fitness.
A note about food
If you are inexperienced, it can be very dangerous to eat wild plants. You
can easily become poisoned. Food gives you energy and can keep you healt-
hy, so eat well before you go on an expedition, and take some food with you:

Finding water
You can use birds and insects to lead you
to water.
Most grain - eating birds (such as finc-
hes and pigeons). animals, and flies are signs
that water is near.
A group of climbing a tree may be hea-
ding towards a small pool of water. Make
sure they don't bite you.
Collecting water
Rainwater
To catch the maximum amount of rainwa-
ter, lean a waterproof container under a tree.
Extra water will run down the trunk and into
the container.
Ice or snow
Thinly spread ice or snow on a sheet of
plastic (preferably black, as this absorbs the
heat). Arrange the plastic to catch the water
as it melts.
Keeping warm
Clothes
When dressing for cold conditions remember:
- Clean are warmer than dirty ones.
- Layers of clothes are the best protection against cold. They trap air next
to your body and between clothes: this air is kept still and warm, acting as an
insulator. The more layers you wear, the warmer you will be.

Positioning your camp
Generally, the lower the camp, the warmer and more sheltered it will be.
Check that there is no danger from above, tor example bees' nests,
falling rocks or dead wood.
If possible, camp near water and a supply of wood.
Keep away from solitary trees, as these attract lightning.
Don't camp too close to water - you are likely to be bitten by insects.
Your camp should be easily visible to potential rescue parties.

Weather wisdom
A long time ago when people lived mostly out-at-doors, they were close to
nature. They noticed that when plants, insects, and birds sensed the coming
storm they looked for shelter. When ancient people saw animals seeking shel-
ter, they did it too.
Of course, plants and animals do not actually forecast weather, but they
are good weather indicators.
Some people watch ants for weather clues. Anytime you see ants building
huge mounds around their holes, they prepare for rain. About two hours befo-
re rain, all kinds ot ants begin building dams around the ant hill. These mo-
unds, which are sometimes several inches in height, prevent rainwater from
running into the ant hills.
Bees give weather clues, too. They are usually active several hours betore rain, but
as the humidity increases, they return to their hives. Some American Indians say that

the longer the increased activity lasts, the longer
the rain will be.
Other insects are also good humidity indi-
cators. Butterflies usually fly from flower to
flower all day long. When they suddenly di-
sappear and can be found hiding on tree
trunks or on the underside of leaves, they are
seeking shelter to protect their fragile wings
from a hard rainfall.
Plants are also handy humidity indicators.
They are affected in different ways. Just be-
fore rain many flowers - like daisy, dandelion
and tulip - close their blossoms.
Normally, spiders know that insects will be easier to catch when the humi-
dity is high. The moisture in the air soaks the insects' wings, making it difficult
for them to fly.
An old saying warns:
When spiders take in their net,
The ground will soon be wet.
Some people are very sensitive to humidity. People who have arthritis are,
in a sense, "living hydrometers". That is why many older people say, "It's going
to rain. I can feel it by my bones." They actually can.
By learning to read weather signs, you can get a few hours advance war-
ning of a storm. It may keep you from getting your new shoes ruined in the
rain, from having a family picnic spoiled, or your garden beaten down by a
storm. If you are backpacking, camping, boating or doing similar outdoor ac-
tivities it might even save your life.

Our dear, dear animals
Perhaps the British are too good to their pets, but more interesting is a
recent theory amongst psychologists that pets are very good for us.
The basic meaning of "pet" is an animal we keep for emotional rather than
economic reasons. A pet animal is kept as a companion, and we all need compa-
nions to keep us feeling happy. But pets offer us more than mere companionship;

they invite us to love and be loved. Many owners feel their pets understand
them, for animals are quick to sense anger and sorrow. Often a cat or dog can comfort
us at times when human words don't help. We feel loved, too, by the way pets
depend on us for a home, for food and drink. Dogs especially look up to their ow-
ners, which makes them feel important and needed.
A pet can be something different to each member of the family, another
baby to the mother, a sister or brother to an only child, a grandchild to the
elderly, but for all of us pets provide pleasure and companionship. It has even
been suggested that tiny pets should be sent as companions to astronauts on
spaceships, to help reduce the stress and loneliness of space flights.
In this Plastic Age, when most of us live in large cities, pets are particularly
important for children. Learning to care for a pet helps a child to grow up into
a loving adult who feels responsible towards those dependent on him. Rightly
we teach children to be good to their pets. They should learn, too, that pets
are good for us, human beings.

The ten most intelligent animals
Do animals think, or do they act merely from
instinct? These questions have been debated by
many people. Dr. Blair has worked with animals
for many years. What does he think?
"It is my judgement that all animals think,"
said Dr. Blair, formerly director of the New York
Zoological Park, who has spent many years as a
companion of animals. "When we see animals
showing affection, sympathy, jealousy or anger,
can we doubt that there are thoughts accompa-
nying these feelings?"
Dr. Blair believes that the ten most intelligent
animals are:
1) the chimpanzee
2) the orang-utan
3) the elephant
4) the gorilla
5) the dog
6) the beaver
7) the horse
8) the sea lion
9) the bear
10) the cat

Unit 6 &m
The chimpanzee
"Ellen, our female chimpanzee from Africa," said Dr. Blair, ulearned to
put on a sweater which she pulls on over her head. She can sit at the table,
and eat food with a fork like any other eight-year-old. "Several years ago
we had a chimpanzee that could sew."
A chimpanzee, seeing a banana hung on a string outside its ca"ge, pic-
ked up a rod and tried to reach the fruit. Failing with the short rod, he found
another one which could be fitted into the first. (The rods had been put in
his cage for the purpose.) By lengthening the tool, he got the banana.
The elephant
"The elephant is the philosopher of the animal kingdom," Dr. Blair
continued. "No other creature is so powerful or so difficult to capture.
Yet none so promptly seems to realize man's superiority or so quickly
learns that the wisest course is to accept captivity and make the best
of it. [Among dogs, horses, lions and tigers, only an exceptional one
can be highly trained, and that usually when he is young.] An elephant
seems never too old to learn, and every elephant is a star. n
On a cold night at the zoo, several of the elephants always shut the
door after they go into their house, without waiting for the keeper to do
it. In summer they leave the door open. One of the Indian elephants
stores away peanuts on Sunday, when visitors are numerous, and eats
them on Monday, when there are few visitors.
Again and again the truth that an elephant never forgets has been shown at
the zoo. One example was that of a messenger boy to whom an elephant na-
med Gunda took a deep dislike. Every time he saw the boy, he tried to strike
him. After the messenger left the job at the zoo, three years passed before he
dropped in for a visit. When Gunda saw him, he raised his trunk as if to strike.
Thus he showed that he remembered his hatred for the boy.
The bear
Ivan, a big Alaskan brown bear, was a natural clown. He seemed to take
delight in standing directly under the sign, "Don't feed the bears - pe-
nalty $10 fine. n There he would beg for food - and always get it.
The cat
Cats appeared in ancient Egypt, where wild cats were tamed and trained to
catch the rats and the mice.
"We may make a mistake," admitted Dr. Blair, "in thinking that friendliness
is a sign of intelligence. Take the house cat, for example. The cat is extremely
intelligent, but it is always its own master and lives its own life."

Sea lions
Sea lions, too, have excellent memories and can be trained quickly. Their
tameness, their eagerness to learn and their ability to imitate rate them above
the more slow-minded bear. Bears like an audience and will perform the most
difficult and clownish stunts for no other reward than the applause of the
crowd. But the sea lion demands a fish or some other tasty reward.
Who was Laika?
People first heard about Laika in 1957. On November 3 of that year, Russia
sent a satellite into space. It was called Sputnik 2. The world's first space tra-
veller was on board. She was a dog named Laika, which means "barker".
Until Sputnik 2 went up, no one knew what would happen to living things in
space. Could animals live there? Could people travel safely in spaceships?
What dangers would there be in space? Laika's trip answered many of these
questions.
For seven days the dog circled the earth. She lived in a special cabin that
was kept cool for her. She got food the same way she had been trained to get
it on earth. The dog was well and happy. She showed people on earth that
animals could live in space. Maybe men and women could, too.
The Russians did not know how to bring Laika back to earth. She died in
space. She gave her life so that people could learn about safe space travel.
And people have not forgotten her. Laika's spaceship is sometimes called
Sputnik 2.
2. Explain the main idea of this sentence using the paragraph.
1) We heard about Laika in 1957.
2) Laika's trip answered many scientific questions.
3) Animals could live in space.
4) People have not forgotten Laika.

A gaggle of geese
Large flocks of wild geese migrate south for the winter and
north for the summer. Sometimes geese will form small gro-
ups within the flock. These groups are called gaggles.
Even after a long journey a group of geese seems full of
energy. They are always squabbling and honking and flapping
their wings. In fact, they are in top physical condition before,
during, and after migration. This is due to their energy-saving
system of flying in drafts.
The leader of the flock breaks the trail through the air as
the rest of the geese follow in the shape of a V. Each goose,
flying a little to the side and rear of the goose ahead of it, is
sucked along in the V-shaped draft of air caused by the geese
in front. This "drafting" allows the geese to travel at an easy
pace all through their long migration.
The blue whale
Why is the world's mightiest animal in danger?
The blue whale is the largest animal that has ever lived. A fully grown one
can be more than 1 00 feet long. That's longer than three school buses parked
bumper to bumper. Just the tongue of a blue whale is larger than a car. The
huge creature may weigh up to 180 tons.
The Blue whale is also the strongest of the earth's creatures.
Although they are the world's biggest and strongest creatures, blue whales
are in danger. Just 150 year ago, there were over 150,000 of them in the
world's seas. Today there are only about 600 to 3,000. Why? For years, the
blue whale was a prize catch for whalers. Its huge body contains more than 20
tons of valuable oil. Thousands of blue whales were killed each year. Before
long, fewer and fewer of the giant creatures were sighted. The blue whale was
dying out.
In 1965, whaling countries agreed to stop killing blue whales. Even so,
some are still accidentally killed by whalers. Others died from sickness and old

Buddy and me
Buddy is my best friend. He never gets mad at me. He never runs off to
play with another boy. He always listens when I need someone to talk to. When
he sees me, his big brown eyes are sweet as a smile.
But Buddy is more than my friend. He's my arms and legs. He helps me do
things I can't do by myself.
I can't do a lot of things other kids can. I have a disease that makes my
muscles weak. It's called muscular dystrophy.
Before Buddy, Mom and Dad helped me. Mike and other friends helped
too. But friends sometimes get tired of helping, and I wanted to do things on
my own.
Buddy was my wish come true. We met at a camp where Buddy was trained
to help someone like me.
As a puppy, he was special. Loving and smart, he was chosen to. be a Ser-
vice Dog. Buddy was the star of puppy kindergarten. Top dog in his graduation
class. In -two years, Buddy had learned sixty commands.
I had to learn all the commands in WlO weeks. How to take care of Buddy, too.
It was hard. Much harder than I thought.
We worked long hours and had tests every
day.
Over and over I practiced giving com-
mands. It wasn't easy to make Buddy obey
me. He acted like a kid who didn't pay any
attention to his teacher.
. Many times I got angry. Sometimes I cri-
ed. But I never gave up, even when I wan-
ted to.
To help us feel that we belonged toget-
her, Buddy was leashed to my wrist all day
and night. We had to do everything together.
We slept together. We even took showers to-
gether!

Basketball
Basketball is a very popular game in America The official
basketball season is usually during the winter, but it is a game
which can be played at any time of the year. Basketball is
played on a court. The game is played with a large ball about
30 inches in circumference. A team is made up of five players.
In the United States teams compete in basketball at many le-
vels. There is a professional league called the National Basketball
Association (NBA), primary and secondary schools and universiti-
es compete against each other, and in many towns there are 10-
calleagues in which anyone who wishes to may play on a team.
Basketball is also a popular spectator sport. Many Americans
watch basketball games in arenas and on television.
Basketball is a very fun game which can be played formal-
ly, in a league, or casually, just for enjoyment. It is easy to
organize a game wherever there is a court, and many Ameri-
cans playa lot of basketball for exercise and recreation.

My sister taught me to score
Soccer is my favorite sport, and I have been playing for nine years. I love to
play all sports, but I play only soccer and basketball in a league. I have a sister
Elizabeth. She is 15. She plays soccer too. She has been playing for 10 years.
I wasn't very good at first. I was about 6 at the time. My sister was naturally
good and she scored a lot for her team. My sister started to teach me the fun-
damentals. Elizabeth taught me how to pass.
Soon I could do it with my eyes shut. She started to teach me moves to get
around another guy. I practiced a lot by myself, with Elizabeth, and at team
practices.
Elizabeth then taught me how to shoot. One day there was a game. I was
not good enough that day and we lost the game. I was so mad, I went home
and practiced and practiced without a break. I almost fainted.
Elizabeth and I were both disappointed. We began to practice again, especially
how to trap, pass and shoot. I didn't want the same thing to happen to me again.
Gradually, I became a very good soccer player. I almost always make the right
decisions now. Soccer is a mental game as well.

The origins of soccer
There are lots of stories about how soccer-like games have been played
all over the world and at different times in history.
About 10,000 years ago Romans played ball games, they played for exer-
cise.

Britain was invaded by Rome, and the game - playing Roman soldiers
probably brought soccerlike games with them and may have introduced
them to people living in Britain. In any case, football was played in Britain for
over 1,000 years. Many kings and queens tried to ban it because football
took time away from soldierly activities, such as archery.
Despite being illegal in Britain until the 18th century, the English created
rules for the game in 1863.
The Pilgrims could have been met on the beach at Plymouth by soccer-
playing American Indians! By the time the Pilgrims arrived in 1620, Indians in
New England had been playing a game called, "gather to play football", for a
while. This game looked a lot like modern soccer: it was played entirely with
the legs and the feet, and the object was to cross the opponent's goal line
with the ball. The ball, however was small, about 2 to 4 inches in diameter,
and was made of wood, or deerskin stuffed with leaves. In 1634 English set-
tlers wrote about the game, which reminded them of English football, and
noted that play could involve anywhere from 30 to 1,000 players on a mile-
long field!

Floral designer
Arranging flowers
Sasha's sister's hobby is to grow flowers and to arran-
ge them. In Atlanta Sasha met Cheryl Connely. This is
what she said:
"My name is Cheryl Connely. I am the owner of a floral
and gift store in Atlanta, GA, called Favorite Things. It is
located in the largest mall in the United States.
I started my business 4 years ago making small wre-
aths and selling them to individuals. I sold from a pus-
hcart and now I am in a large store.
I have always loved flowers and enjoyed sharing this
love with others.
Now I want to share with you how to make a bouquet for your birthday or
special occasion.
You will need: a vase or container, flowers, greenery, ribbon.
Gather the flowers and put in vase."

I wish you good luck and enjoy your beautiful flowers.
Knowing a few basic principles of flower arranging can help you add beauty
and life to your home.
When putting flowers on a dining table, keep the flower arrangement rather
low, usually below eye level, so that it won't interfere with conversation.
Use the following illustrations as guides for flower arranging:

Belling the Cat
Long ago, the mice held a general council to consider what measures they
could take to outwit their common enemy, the Cat. Some said this, and some
said that; but at last a young mouse got up and said he had a proposal to
make, which he thought could help. "You will all agree," said he, that our chief
danger consists in the sly manner in which the enemy approaches us. Now, if 'I
we could receive some signal of her approach, we could easily escape from
her. I venture, therefore, to propose that a small bell be attached by a ribbon
round the neck of the Cat. By this we would always know when she was about,
and could easily retire while she was near."
This proposal was met with general applause, until an old mouse got up
and said: "That is all very well, but who is to bell the Cat?" The mice looked at
one another and nobody spoke. Then the old mouse said:
"IT IS EASY TO PROPOSE IMPOSSIBLE REMEDIES."

The Doctor and Young Living
The doctor put away his stethoscope and looked at his friend, Joe, a gara-
ge mechanic, who was buttoning his shirt after the examination His hands
shook and his face was pale.
"Have I got anything, Doc?" he asked.
"You certainly have."
"Is it serious?"
"So you want to know what you have," the doctor said slowly. "For one
thing, you have youth. That's pretty serious."
"Don't kid me, Doc! What have I got?"
"High blood pressure. Don't worry about it. We can get it under control. But
tell me - how often do I have you to check my car?"
"Gh, once a month, I guess. You drive a lot."
"So do you, Joe. You drive yourself a lot. How long has it been since you've
had a check-up with me?"
"Maybe a couple of years."
"My records show that it was exactly six years last June. Don't you think
your health is as important as the health of my car?"
We have curious attitudes about doctors. We want the doctor badly when
we are sick. When we're well, he's usually the last person on earth that we
want to see for professional services. We don't like to be reminded that sic-
kness can attack us.
Remember that a basic factor is your attitude toward yourself. Much of the
pattern of your life is determined by your own views in regard to how you think,
what you do, how you relate to others.
The Discontented Pig
After Oscar Wilde
Long ago, there was a curly-tailed pig. He lived by himself in a house at the
edge of the village, and every day he worked in his garden. Whether the sun
shone or the rain fell he dug and weeded his tomatoes and carrots, until word
of his fine vegetables travelled through seven countries, and each year he won
the royal prize at the fai r.
But the time came that Little Pig grew tired of the endless toil.

"I must to go out and see the world and
find an easier way of making a living. II
So he locked the door of his house and
shut the gate of his garden and started down
the road.
He travelled about three miles, till he
came to a cottage behind the trees. Lovely
music sounded around him and Little Pig smi-
;;;;:;:=;. J=--: led.
"I will go and look for it," he said..
In that house lived Thomas, a cat, who
made his living by playing on the violin. Little
-.... ":.. -. Pig saw him standing in the door pushing the
rp .... :: bow up and down across the strings. Surely
this must be easier and far more pleasant
than digging in a garden!
"Will you teach me to play the violin, friend
cat?" asked Little Pig.
Thomas looked up from his bow and nodded his head.
"Just do as I am doing," he answered.
And he gave him the bow and fiddle.
Little Pig took them and began to saw.
No sweet music fell upon his ear.
"Gh!" he cried, "this isn't music!" ..
Thomas the cat nodded his head.
"Of course not," he said. "You haven't tried long enough. He who would
play the violin must work."
"Then I think I'll look for something else," Piggywig answered, "because
this is quite as hard as weeding my garden."
And he gave back the bow and fiddle and ran down the road.
He walked on and on, until he came to a hut where there liv.ed a dog who
made cheese. Little Pig thought it was quite easy.
"I think I'd like to go into the cheese business myself," he said to himself.
So he asked the dog if he would teach him.
This the dog was quite willing to do, and a moment later Little Pig was
working beside him.
Soon he grew hot and tired and stopped to rest and fan himself.
"No, no!" exclaimed the dog, "you will spoil the cheese. There can be no
rest time until the work is done."
Little Pig opened his eyes in amazement.

"Indeed!" he replied. "Then this is just as hard as growing vegetables or
learning to playa violin. I want to look for something easier."
And he started down the road.
On the other side of the river, in a sweet green field, a man was taking
honey out of beehives. Little Pig saw him as he crossed the bridge and thought
that of all the trades he had seen this was what suited him best. It must be
lovely there in the meadow among the flowers. Honey was not heavy to lift, and
once in a while he could have a mouthful of it. He ran as fast as he could to ask
the man if he would take him into his employ.
This plan pleased the bee man as much as it pleased the pig. "I've been
looking for a helper for a year and a day," he said. "Begin work at once."
He gave Little Pig a veil and a pair of gloves, telling him to fasten them on
well. Then he told him to lift a honey-comb out of a hive.
Little Pig ran to do it, twisting his curly tail in the joy of having at last found
a business that suited him. But buzz, buzz! The bees crept under his veil and
inside his gloves. They stung him on his fiingers, his mouth, his ears, and the
end of his nose, and he dropped the honey and rn.
"Come back, come back!" the man called.
"No, no!" Little Pig answered. "No, no, the bees hurt me!"
The man nodded his head.
"Of course they do," he said. "They hurt me too! That is part of the work.
You cannot be a beekeeper without getting stung."
Little Pig began to think hard.
"It seems that every kind of work has something unpleasant about it. To
play the violin you must practise until your arm aches. When you make cheese
you dare not stop a minute until the work is done, and in taking honey from a
hive, the bees sting you until your head is on fire. Work in my garden is not so
hard after all, and I am going back to it."
So he said goodbye to the bee man and was soon back in his vegetable
garden. He was singing while working, and there was no more contented pig in
all that kingdom. Every autumn he took his vegetables to the fair and brought
home the royal prize, and sometimes, on holidays, the cat and the dog and the
bee man came to see him.

4) When you finish eating, what should you do with the silverware?
Answer: Place your knife, fork and spoon across the dinner plate. It lets
others know you have finished eating.
Do not push the plate forward when you finish eating
5) What should you do with the spoon after stirring coffee?
Answer: Place the spoon across the edge of the saucer or on a napkin.
6) What should you do if you spill food on your clothes?
Answer: Go to a sink. Get clean cloth. Wet it with COLD water. Lemon
will help you to get rid of the spots. Gently rub the area with the wet cloth.
If the stain does not go away, you may need to change clothes. Then put
stain remover on the dirty area and wash the cloths as usual in the washing
machine.
The longer food remain on clothes, the harder it will be to remove the
stain.
7) Mother has cooked your favourite cake. You're the first to
serve yourself. What should you do?
You should (1) take the biggest piece. (2) leave the biggest for someone
else because others like the dish also, (3) decide that someone should have
the largest piece, so why not you.
Answer: (2) leave the biggest for someone else because others like the
dish also.
8) What should you do if you are eating alone?
Answer: Avoid bad eating habits -like standing when eating - just beca-
use there's no one there to see you. Plan a wholesome menu instead of
stand-up snacks, and eat slowly, seated.
A pretty setting, a colourful napkin or a gift mug promotes happy memories
and a pleasant state of mind when having a meal alone.

Breakfast
All people in the world have breakfast, and most people eat and drink the
same things for breakfast. They may eat different things for all the other meals
in the day, but at breakfast time, most people have the same things to eat and
drink - Tea or Coffee, Bread and Butter, Fruit.
Some people eat meat for breakfast. English people usually eat meat at
breakfast time, but England is a cold country. It is bad to eat meat for break-
fast in a hot country. It is bad to eat too much meat; if you eat meat for break-
fast, you eat meat three times a day; and that is bad in a hot country. It is also
bad to eat meat and drink tea at the same time, for tea makes meat hard so
that the stomach cannot deal with it.
The best breakfast is Tea or Coffee, Bread and Butter, Fruit. That is the
usual breakfast of most people in the world.

How Tea Was First Drunk in Britain
By the time tea was first introduced into this country
(1660), coffee had already been drunk for several years.
By 1750 tea had become the most popular beverage for all
types and classes of people - even though a pound of tea
cost a skilled worker perhaps a third of his weekly wage!
Tea ware
Early tea cups had no handles, because they were original-
ly imported from China. Chinese cups didn't (and still don't)
have handles.
As tea drinking grew in popularity, it led to a demand for
more and more tea ware. This resulted in the rapid growth of
the English pottery and porcelain industry, which not long after
became world famous for its products.

The Tea Break
Nowadays, tea drinking is no longer a proper, formal. "social" occasion.
We don't dress up to "go out to tea" anymore. But one tea ceremony is still
very important in Britain - the Tea Break! Millions of people in factories and
offices look forward to their tea breaks in the morning and afternoon.
Things To Do
1) Make a display of as many pictures, cut from magazines, as you can find
showing different kinds of tea pots and tea cups.
2) Design your own kind of tea pots and tea cups.
Nutrition and health
Dieting
Since ta s a natural product, it helps the body to work and contains no
calories, it can be an ideal drink for people on a special diet. Tea with lemon-
a calorie free combination - is recommended in most diet sheets for slim-
mers.

Making a Perfec up of Tea
There are five golden rules to make the perfect cup of tea:
1) Use good tea; put in one tea bag or one spoonful per person
and one for the pot.
2) Fill the kettle with fresh water from the cold tap. Warm the tea pot.
3) Pour on the freshly boiled water.
4) Let the tea infuse for five minutes, then stir.
S) Serve with milk and sugar to taste.
"&
Lemon Tea & Iced Tea
You might like to try these two interesting ways of serving tea as a welcome
change. Lemon tea is popular all the year round. Use a heat proof tumbler and
.serve the tea simply with a slice of lemon. Sugar or sweetner can be added to
taste.
Iced Tea is very popular in America, where many families keep a jug in their
fridge through the long hot summer. The best way to make this is to make a
pot of tea and after the tea has been infused for five minutes pour the tea off
into a jug and put in the fridge to cool. Serve with ice cubes, lemon or orange
to flavour and sugar if you wish, this is an excellent economical and refreshing
summer drink.

HOW TO MAKE THE VERY BEST
ONION RINGS
Peel an onion.
Then slice the onion so that each slice
has many rings.
Prepare a mixture of two eggs and 1 /2
cup of milk in a pan or bowl.

Borshch
My Mom cooks borshch very well. It is a regular and favorite meal with us.
This is how she makes it. You may try to cook it for the members of you family,
if you want to please them.
Boil some meat for about 1-1,5 hours in the salted water. Stew sliced
beetroot in the pan with the fat from the broth. Fry sliced carrots, onions and
parsley in the frying-pan (separately from the beetroot), use vegetable oil for
this. Beetroot should be stewed, carrots and onions - fried.
Peel, slice and fry tomatoes for ten minutes separately.
Put some cabbage and potatoes in the broth. (The lid of
the sauce-pan must be open). Add stewed beetroot, fried
carrots, onion, parsley, tomatoes, sweet pepper (if you
want) and in 15 minutes your borshch is ready. It is served
with sour cream, garlic and greens. Add salt to your taste.
Meat or poultry - 0,5 kg.
Beetroot - 1 piece (medium size)
Sweet pepper - 1-2 pieces
Cabbage - 500 gr
Potatoes - 2 pieces
Tomatoes - 3-4 pieces or a spoonful
of tomato paste
Brown onions - 1 piece
Parsley - 2 pieces
salt and pepper to taste

The Luncheon
After S. Maugham
It was twenty years ago and I was living in Paris. I had a small apartment in
the Latin Quarter and I was earning barely enough money to keep body and
soul together. One of my readers, a lady, had read a book of mine and had
written to me about it. I answered, thanking her, and soon I received from her
another letter saying that she was passing through Paris and would like to have
a chat with me. She asked me if I would give her a little lun-
cheon at Foyot's. Foyot's is a restaurant at which the French
senators eat and it was so far beyond my means that I had
never even thought of going there. But I was flattered and I
was too young to say no to a woman. So I answered that I
would meet her at Foyot's on Thursday at half past twelve.
She "vas not so young as I expected, and not so attractive
in appearance. She was talkative; but since she seemed incli-
ned to talk about me I was prepared to be an attentive liste-
ner. I was startled when the menu was brought, for the prices
were a great deal higher than I had expected. But she reassu-
red me. "I never eat anything for luncheon," she said. "Oh,
don't say that!" I answered generously. "I never eat more than
one thing. I think people eat too much nowadays. A little fish
perhaps. I wonder if they have any salmon." Well, it was early
in the year for salmon and it was not on the menu, but I asked
the waiter if there was any. Yes, they had a beautiful salmon
and I ordered it for my guest. The waiter asked her if she wo-
uld have something while it was being cooked. "No," she an-
swered, "I never eat more than one thing. Unless you had a
little caviare. I never mind caviare." My heart sank a little.
I knew I could not afford caviare, but I could not tell her that.

I told the waiter by all means to bring caviare.
For myself I chose the cheapest dish on the
menu and that was a mutton-chop. "I think
you are unwise to eat meat," she said. "I
don't know how you can expect to work after
eating heavy things like chops."
Then came the question of drink. "I never
drink anything for luncheon," she said. "Neit-
her do I," I answered promptly. "Except white
wine," she went on as though I had not spo-
ken. "My doctor won't let me drink anything
but champagne." I think I turned a little pale. I
ordered half a bottle. I mentioned that my
doctor had absolutely forbidden me to drink champagne. She ate the caviare.
She ate the salmon. When my mutton-chop arrived she said: "I see that you're
in the habit of eating a heavy luncheon. I'm sure it's a mistake."
The waiter came again with the menu. She waved him aside with a light
gesture. "No, no, I can't eat anything more unless they had some of those gi-
ant asparagus. I should be sorry to leave Paris without having some of them."
My heart sank. I had seen them in the shops and I knew that they were horribly
expensive. Panic seized me. It would be terrible to find myself ten francs short
and be obliged to borrow from my guest. I could not bring myself to do that. I
knew exactly how much money I had and if the bill came to more, I made up my
mind that I would put my hand into the pocket and with a dramatic cry start up
and say my money had been stolen. If she had not money enough to pay the
bill then the only thing to do would be to leave my watch and say I would come
back and pay later.
The asparagus appeared. When she finished eating I said: "Coffee?" "Yes,
just an ice-cream and coffee," she answered. It was all the same to me now,
so I ordered coffee and an ice-cream for her and coffee for myself.
Then a terrible thing happened. The head-waiter came up to us with a large
basket full of peaches. Peaches were not in season then. Lord knew what they
cost. My guest, going on with her conversation, absent-mindedly took one.
"You see, you've filled your stomach with a lot of meat and you can't eat
any more. But I've just had a snack and I shall enjoy a peach."
The bill came and when I paid it I found that I did not have enough for a
good tip. When I walked out of the restaurant I had the whole month before me

and not a penny in my pocket. "Follow my example," she said as we shook
hands, "and never eat more than one thing for luncheon."
"1'11 do better than that," I answered. "1'11 eat nothing for dinner to-night."
"Humorist, you are quite a humorist," she cried gaily, jumping into a cab.

The Teddy Bear Museum
We are delighted to invite you to visit our Teddy Bear Museum with almost
400 Teddy Bears, many exceedingly rare Bears only seen before in books!
Take as long as you please to wander back in time to your childhood.
If you, like many millions of people, have your own, you will almost certainly find
an example in the Museum where you will see him identified and all details known
about him. You will find our "Hall of Fame" where Teddies are
assembled with their fascinating stories for you to enjoy.
In the museum you'll find many rare and very interes-
ting Dolls and toys. Most Dolls Houses are superbly fur-
nished . You will also find Puppet theatre showing Rupert,
Andy Pandy and Muffin The Mule as well as many other
well-known characters.
All the exhibits in the Museum form part of Wendy Le-
wis's own collection which has been described as one of
the best in the world.
It is our sole intention to improve the museum. If after
viewing you feel you have any comments, Wendy is always
available in the shop and will be pleased to have a chat.

How did the Teddy bear get its name?
Theodore Roosevelt, the president of the United States from 1901 to 1909,
was one day out in the wood hunting bears. He came across a little bear cub,
and because it was so small, he could not kill it, but let it wander off.
An American newspaper heard the story and published a cartoon showing
Theodore Roosevelt with the little animal. Some time later, a toy maker wrote
to the president asking for permission to make a soft, toy bear and name it
after him. As Theodore Roosevelt's nickname was "Teddy" Roosevelt, the toy
maker wanted to call his toy a "Teddy" bear.
Ever since then, one of the favourite toys of young children everywhere has
been a teddy bear.

Why is the Tower 01 London so special?
The Tower of London is the oldest palace, fortress and prison in Europe. It
is one of the most popular museums nowadays. The great central tower, the
White Tower, was built around 1090 by William the Conqueror on the site of a
Roman fort built there more than 1000 years earlier. Massive defensive walls
and other towers were added later. Through the centuries, the Tower of Lon-
don has been a citadel, a palace, a prison for offenders against the State, the
home of the Mint, the treasury for the Crown Jewels, a menagerie, and the
first royal observatory. Three queens of England have been beheaded within
its walls.
The Tower's guardians are the Yeomen Warders who wear splendid scar-
let and gold uniforms dating back to Henry VII's time.

The British Museum
In the beginning ...
Sir Hans Sloane was a great collector. He filled his house
with raie books and pictures, precious stones, stuffed ani-
mals, birds and butterflies, and ancient remains from all over
the world. There had never been a collection quite like it, and
visitors were amazed by what they saw.
When Sir Hans Sloane died in 1753. his will let the King buy
the whole collection for just £ 20,000 so that it could belong
to the nation for ever. This was the start of the British Museum.
It took thirty years and thousands of tons of stone to
complete the building and the forty-four massive columns
which decorate the front. The building of the British Museum
was finished in 1948.

From animals to antiquities...
The British Museum started as a museum which collected everything. At
first it was particularly famous for its natural history collection and its vast lib-
rary of books.
Three stuffed giraffes used to stand at the top of the stairs in old Montagu
house.
In the 1880s all the museum's stuffed animals and birds were moved to
the new Natural History museum at South Kensington.
Children today are sometimes surprised not to find any dinosaurs in the
museum ... but there are plenty of other ancient and marvellous things to
look at.

The museum's huge collection of books
and manuscripts has now become the British
Library. Many fine examples of famous bo-
oks, Bibles, manuscripts and old maps are
displayed in the British Library galleries in the
museum.
For over two and a quarter centuries the
collections of "antiquities" have gone on gro-
wing. Today the British Museum is a treasure
house of old, beautiful and interesting ob-
jects. They come from all over the world and
from thousands of years of history. The one
thing they have in common is that they have
all been made by hand. Every exhibit reveals
the skill of its maker and tells us something
about the time and place in which it was
made.

Inside information
The heaviest exhibit is a winged lion made of stone. It
weighs 16 tons (as much as two double-decker buses)!
There is something odd about its legs. What is it?
The tallest exhibit is the totem pole which is over 11
metres high.
The oldest exhibits in the museum are stone tools from
Africa more than a million years old.

Scientists at work
What is it made of?
What would you think this mirror was made of? Everyone thought it was
made of bronze like other Greek and Roman mirrors in the museum. Bronze
contains copper and tin, and copper becomes covered with green corrosion
like this when it is buried.
Scientists in the laboratory were trying to discover more about the metals
used by the Greeks and Romans. When they tested a bit of this mirror they
were puzzled because the metal did not behave like bronze.
They then used a special technique for analysing metal and the results
said:
Silver 92%
Copper 8%
Once they knew what it was made of, it was possible to clean it properly.
The British Museum now has a rare Roman silver mirror on display!

Dragons and pots
The Chinese have been making pots out
of fine white porcefain for a thousand years.
The secret lay in a special type of white stone
found in China which was ground to a paste
and fired at a high temperature. European
potters had great difficulty trying to imitate
the porcelain from China which they admired
so much.
This vase was made over four hundred
years ago, when English pots were still being
made out of thick coarse clay. It is decorated
with six round pictures of dragons. Dragons
were thought of as watery rain-bringing crea-
tures.
Rain makes the crops grow, and crops
make the land wealthy and happy, so the
Emperors adopted the dragon as their spe-
cial symbol.
You can see Chinese dragons on pots in
the museum.
Here are five of them.
Coins and Medals
The British Museum has a collection
of coins and medals spanning 2000 years
of British history.
Medals were often made to comme-
morate great events. Elizabeth I had this
medal struck after the defeat of the Spa-
nish Armada in 1588.
Until the seventeenth century all coins
were made of gold and silver and they
were worth the value of the metal. As mo-
ney values changed over the centuries,
so coins changed in size, and new ones
were introduced. In the end silver coins
became too small to use. Nowadays our
coins are made of base metals and their
value no longer depends on their size:
a silver penny: 240 for £ 1,
a silver testoon or shilling: 20 for £ 1.
a crown: 4 for £ 1.
There are about half a million coins in
the British Museum altogether. Many of
them come from hidden hoards. like the
gold coins, you see below. which were
buried in Kent by a Roman soldier. Per-
haps he wanted to keep them safe while
he was fighting... but he never came back
to collect them again.

Prizes from the Games
Sporting competitions were very popular
in Greece. As well as the great Olympic Ga-
mes there were many local festivals. Every
four years the Great Panathenaic games
were held in Athens. The prize for each event
was a quantity of olive oil contained in fine
painted vases or "amphorae".
These amphorae always have a picture of
the goddess Athena on one side. The in-
scription says "I am one of the prizes from
Athens". The other side shows the sport. This
prise was won by a champion boxer.
Long after the oil ran out the amphorae
were valued as fine vases. When the vase
with the boxers on it got broken the owner
did not throw it away. He drilled holes in the
pieces and clamped them together again
with lead staples.
Ivory chessmen
The game of Chess has been played all
over the world for a thousand years and more.
These chessmen were found in a sand-dune on
the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. There
were ninety-three pieces altogether from seve-
ral different sets. Perhaps they belonged to a
merchant who was hoping to sell them.
The chessmen were carved in the twelfth
century out of walrus tusk ivory. Some of
them were stained dark red to make them
different from the white ivory pieces, but this
has now worn off.
Chequered chessboards came into use
about the time these chessmen were made.

This clock in the shape of a ship was

on the Holy Roman Emperor's table. The ship
could move along, rocking up and down, with
music playing and a cannon firing. It must

The Natural History Museum
My name is Gina Dobson, and I work as Press Officer at The Natural History
Museum in London, England. The Museum houses the finest natural history
collection in the world - 68 million specimens of animals, plants, minerals,
rocks and fossils. It is my job to publicise the exciting events and exhibitions at
the Museum. By placing articles and pictures about the Museum in newspa-
pers and magazines and by organising television and radio interviews I also
publicise the Museum's science - the work that is hidden behind the scenes.
The collections are studied by scientists both at the Museum and all over the
world to increase our understanding of the natural world.
The Natural History Museum was first opened to the public on Easter Mon-
day in April 1881. The Museum was originally just a department of the British
Museum. The enormous private collection of Sir Hans Sloane, a wealthy phy-
sician, formed the basis of the British Museum on his death in 1753. Then du-
ring the 19th century the natural history collections outgrew their British Muse-
um accommodation and a stunning terracotta building was designed and built
to rehouse them in South Kensington.
Today, The Natural History Museum is famous throughout the world for its
beautiful galleries. Visitors to the Museum are greeted by "Dippy", the 26
metre long Diplodocus in the Central Hall. Visitors can enjoy exciting exhibi-
tions about the natural world ranging from "Ecology", "Human Biology" and
"Creepy Crawlies" to the "Meteorite Pavilion", "Dinosaurs" and the UOrigin of

Species". There are also educational programmes and
special events, talks and tours. For example, each year in
March, there is now "National Science Week" when we
celebrate the Museum's science. Visitors can take tours
behind the scenes into the research rooms and laborato-
ries and meet the scientists face to face. Children can
take part in workshops, making dinosaur masks or fossil
rubbings. Each year there are 1.7 million visitors to the
Museum - a fifth are visitors from overseas.
But the Museum is also a very important scientific re-
search centre. Beyond the public galleries more than 300
scientists study the diversity of nature using the Muse-
um's vast and unrivalled collections. The scientists and
curators work in five departments: Botany, Entomology,
Mineralogy, Palaeontology and Zoology. The research
covers nine programmes ranging from environmental qu-
ality to human health and cosmic mineralogy. The scien-
tists are able to use the world's largest natural history lib-
rary at the Museum which holds superb collections of
books, periodicals, manuscripts, maps and drawings. As
many as 1 ,200 school children visit the Museum each day
and each year 200,000 children visit with their schools.
Special resources for schools include an assembly area, fact sheets, activity
packs and a teacher's centre to make sure each visit is as much fun as it is

Introductory tour
Are the animals real? Where do they come from?
How do you get them? This tour is ideal for children
visiting a museum for the first time. The tour aims to
show how the Museum collects, looks after and displa-
ys the natural history materials in its care.
Birds
This tour provides an introduction to bird life, and
investigates bird characteristics, nests, eggs and a va-
riety of birds from across the world.
Young animals
This tour looks in depth at different life cycles, and
at how parental care affects a young animal's chances
of survival.

Insects
A butterfly is an insect.
Insects are alike in these ways:
1. An insect has a 3-part body.
2. It has 6 legs.
3. An insect has antennae on its head.
4. Most have 2 pair of wings. Not all insects fly.

Butterfly Royalty
The Monarch butterfly is a very powerful flyer. Some Mo-
narchs travel over 1,000 miles during their short life span.
In the fall, large groups of Monarchs fly south for the win-
ter. Before they migrate south, they eat nectar from flowers
and parts of milkweed plants. This food gives them the energy
needed to fly the long distance.
The adult Monarchs live all winter in the South. The flight
back to the North is made individually, not in groups. The fe-
male lays her eggs on the return trip. The butterfly has such a
short life span that no individual butterfly completes the round
trip. Eight months is a long life for a Monarch. Their offspring
continue the migration.
The Monarch is truly a remarkable insect. Perhaps that is
why it is given the royal name - "King of the Butterflies."

The Science Museum
Introduction
1) With nearly 50,000 exhibits, the Museum can be used in many ways.
Some visits use museum exhibits in direct support of classroom work, letting
children see "in the flesh" things they have heard about in school. Others the
"hands-on" galleries where every exhibit is an experiment or demonstration
to try for yourself.

MONTGOLFIER BALLOON
This flight on 21 November 1783 was the first time that
humans had left the ground and travelled in the sky. The Mon-
tgolfier brothers built a paper and linen balloon which was fil-
led with hot air. They had already "launched" a duck, a cock
and a sheep safely. The first journey lasted 25 minutes and
they travelled 5 miles.
Questions:
1) Imagine that you are standing in the crowd watching this
balloon. Describe what is happening around you. Think about
all the things you could hear, see or smell.
2) How tall the balloon was: was it 2.5 m, 22.5 m or 225 m tall?
3) There was a fire burning in the balloon to keep it filled with
hot air. What do you think was burnt in it?
J KEY 2) 22.5 m. 3) Straw was burnt.
MOONLANDER
This is a full-size replica of the Apollo 11 or Moonlander,
called "Eagle", which took two astronauts down to the surface
of the Moon in July 1969.
Questions:
1 ) How many legs did Eagle have?
2) Why did Eagle have such big feet?
3) Imagine you are an astronaut on the Moon inside the Mo-
on lander. How do you feel? What can you see? (Try to use all
tenses)
I KEY 1) Four. 2) Large feet prevented the 16.4 tons Lander from sinking into the Lunar soil.

Art Galleries
The Tate Gallery
The idea of the Tate Gallery took shape in 1890. In that year Henry Tate's
gift of sixty-five paintings and two sculptures, almost all of them the work of
Victorian contemporaries, was offered to the nation, but a gallery had still to
be built to house them. When opened seven years later, the Tate Gallery con-
sisted of eight rooms, and was intended as a collection of contemporary Bri-
tish painting only; it was, moreover, a mere annex to the National Gallery, Tra-
falgar Square.
The Tate Gallery has become the national collection of British painting of all
periods, and in addition to this the national collection of modern foreign pain-
ting, and the national collection of modern sculpture, both British and foreign.
British artists
Among the best painters represented in the Tate Gallery are Hogarth, Rey-
nolds, Gainsborough, Constable, Turner, etc.
Here are some of them:

188 Uni :
William Hogarth (1697-1764) is one of the greatest English painters. In
his pictures he reflected social life and in many of them the beauty of his pain-
ting was accompanied by satire. The "Marriage-a-Ia-Mode", "The Election En-
tertainment" were painted to show the life very satirically.
In 1742 Hogarth painted "The Graham Children" where he brilliantly used
his delicate colours to show the charm of childhood.
John Constable (1776-1837) was fond of the place where he was born
and spent his childhood on the river Stour. He saw very beautiful woods, gre-
ens in nature and, being very talented, reflected nature's colours in his
sketches which he then composed into pictures. He painted the landscape
without any changes and the trees or other objects were in his paintings very
true to life. He is said to be the first landscape painter in England.
William Turner (1775-1851) began his activity in art as a watercolour
master. Light and atmosphere were his characteristic feature. Turner is a su-
per colourist. In 1805 he painted "The Shipwreck". He showed a terrible disas-
ter at sea. Green was a colour that Turner particularly disliked.
In "Snow Storm" he reflected with the help of snow the idea of survival and
even in our days it looks very prophetic. It is considered one of his most origi-
nal paintings. He studies colour very seriously and is said to anticipate the art
of Impressionists and abstract painters of the 20th century.
In his "Rain, Steam and Speed" (1844) he worked much on the colour in-
terrelation.
Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788). A very lyrical painter who succes-
sfully connected man and nature. A very strong phsychologist, he painted
mostly women on the background of a scenery.
He liked blue colours best of all. His portraits are optimistic and the light
and shade of colour are in full harmony with the lines.

1. a) What are the girls doing?
b) Do you know the name for the kind of lantern they are holding?
Sargent wanted to show in this picture a special kind of light which can only be seen at
a particular time of day and year. This was the beautiful mauve (a kind of purple) light of
twilight (when the sun is just below the horizon early in the morning or evening). This
can be seen best of all in late summer.
2. a) Does the picture show:
i) earJy morning?
ii) or early evening?
b) How can you tell?
c) What in the picture tells you that it is summertime?
There are several things in the picture which look partly mauve because the light is
making them look that colour.
3. Find four things which show this mauve reflection.
The lanterns are making reflections of a different colour.
4. a) Describe the colour.
b) Find four things which show the reflections from the lanterns.
c) What colours can you see in the girls' dresses?
d) What was their real colour, do you think?
Most of the picture has a mauvish look which gives it a certain kind of mood or atmos-
phere.
5. What words would you choose from the following to describe this mood?
Tick the words of your choice:
lively peaceful creepy
tranquil romantic
miserable happy
Add two describing words of your own in the spaces provided above.
Twilight usually lasts for just a few minutes each day. Because Sargent painted "Carna-
tion, Lily, Lily, Rose" only during these minutes it took a long time - nearly two years-
for him actually to finish the picture.

John Singer Sargent was an American artist
who came to live and work in London. He pa-
inted some beautiful pictures of people out
of doors and then became famous for grand
portraits of rich and fashionable people.
"Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose" was painted whi-
le Sargent was living in England. It isn't actu-
ally a portrait, even though the young girls
do look very life-like and take up quite a lot
of space, which makes them seem impor-
tant. The real subject (what it was about) of
the picture is light and how it can affect the
way in which we see things-especially the
colour of things. This is one of the few pictu-
res Sargent painted out of doors during his
time in England.

Turner (1775-1851). Rain, steam and speed
This is a very rainy day, so rainy that it is difficult to see. Not only is it rainy
but the wind is blowing too, blowing very strongly and howling in our ears
What can we see? At the first glance very little, but suddenly we notice a steam
engine. Can you see its shiny black funnel? Behind it, we can see the railway
carriages, as the train speeds along its journey. This is the Great Western Ra-
ilway, carrying its passengers from
London to the coast. The train is on
a bridge and down below is the Ri-
ver Thames. In the distance, on the
left, is another bridge which also
crosses the Thames. Is that a little
boat, sailing on the water? It is very
stormy weather to be out on a little
boat!
It is much safer to be on the train
with the windows tightly closed.
Shut your eyes and you will soon be
at your destination. For this is the
beginning of the new age of steam,

would have to travel by coach, a coach pulled by horses. But now the steam-
engine races across the land. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Steam-engi-
nes are, after all, very noisy and very dirty. What will happen to the peace of
the countryside?
This is a painting called "Rain, steam and speed". It was painted in 18th
century by the English artist Turner. Turner often painted subjects showing the
impact of the Industrial Revolution upon the country.
Constable (1776-1837). The Cornfield
A favourite joke of the English is their weather. England is a land where it
rains all the time or so they say! In this painting, the weather seems to be very
windy and the clouds are grey - perhaps it will rain soon.
But the English love their countryside
and if it wasn't for the rain, it would not be
so green. Here, the trees are green and the
corn stands high in the field, waiting for the
harvest. This is a typical view of the English
rural landscape from the nineteenth centu-
ry. The thirsty shepherd boy drinks from the
stream, while the ass licks moisture from
the leaves.
Is the shepherd boy doing his job? He has
not noticed that the gate to the cornfield is
broken, making a gap in the fence, will the
sheep escape into the field and trample the
crops? The sheepdog has noticed and will
bark to attract the shepherd-boy's attention
and the farmer in the field will close the gate.
All will be well, but the shepherd -boy should
pay more attention to his job!
The picture is called "The Cornfield" and
was painted by the landscape artist John
Constable, in 1824. Constable came from the
county of Suffolk, one of the prettiest parts of
England and painted its scenery many times.

Hogarth (1697-1764). Before the marriage
Hogarth is the great English satirist of the eighteenth century. On the right
we see Lord Squanderfield pointing to his family tree. His family is ancient
and noble, but he has wasted his fortune. He is fat and gouty and obviously
eats too much. Outside, the builders have stopped work. There is no money
to pay them, and without payment, they will not work. They are on strike!
Opposite him sits a wealthy merchant. Lord Squanderfield wants some of
his money! The merchant has plenty of money, but his family does not have
a noble and ancient name. So, a marriage is arranged between their child-
ren. Lord Squanderfield's son will marry the merchant's daughter, and the
two families will each get what they want. Lord Squanderfield will get the
money and the merchant's daughter will have a noble title. But does the
merchant's daughter look very happy? What is the lawyer suggesting to her?
Lord Squanderfield's son does not seem to care that the two will be shackled
together in an arranged marriage. Can you see the two dogs in the corner?
They are shackled together with a chain just like the unhappy couple.

The State Tretyakov Gallery
The building standing opposite the sout-
hern walls of the Kremlin, beyond the Moskva
River, was built at the beginning of the 20th
century from a design by the famous Russian
artist Viktor Vasnetsov, a connoisseur of old
Moscow. It looks like an illustration to an old
Russian tale.
The facade is decorated with the ancient
coat of arms of Moscow. An inscription on
both sides says:
"The Moscow city art gallery named after
Pavel Mikhailovich and Sergei Mikhailovich
Tretyakov. Founded by P. M. Tretyakov in
1856 and presented to Moscow in 1892, to-
gether with the collection which S. M. Tretya-
kov had bequeathed to the city."
Pavel Tretyakov, a merchant by birth and an outstanding patron of Russian
art, dedicated 40 years of his life to his main calling - the establishment of a
national art museum.
From the beginning he sought to build up a collection of realistic, poetic
paintings by Russian artists who loved their country.
Tretyakov purchased paintings that have become part of the golden trea-
sury of Russian art and are regarded as milestones in its history. He supported
many Russian painters and commissioned numerous paintings. He was parti-
cularly fond of Repin. Many of Repin's paintings can be seen in the gallery,
including his masterpiece, "Ivan Grozny and His Son, Ivan".
Another giant of Russian art, Surikov, owed a great deal to Tretyakov. His
painting "The Execution of the Streltsi", "Boyarinya Morozova" and other fa-
mous canvases hold pride of place in the gallery.
Some people think that it is as beautiful and important as the Art Theatre,
the S1. Basil's Cathedral and everything that is best in Moscow.
The gallery has tens of thousands of paintings, drawings, sculptures and icons.
Among the icons are some world-famous masterpieces by Andrei Rublyov.
A new huge building for the gallery is on the bank of the Moskva River.

"Shrovetide" by Kustodiyev
This painting is a landscape. I like this work because a Russian national
holiday is portrayed. The people are happy and merry. The old Moscow, the
Kremlin, and a lot of different Orthodox cathedrals with are painted.
There is a street where people are sledging. The artist has created a good
holiday mood for people to see and be proud of old Moscow.
The colour of the landscape is bright and sunny.
In the foreground one can see a horse harnessed in a sledge, trees pow-
dered with snow and a lot of tracks of other sledges on the snow. In the bac-
kground there are birds, beautiful churches, a lot of trees and the sky that is
playing with different kinds of fairy-tale colours.
This painting arouses some merry holiday feelings.
Y. Erusolimsky, a 10 year old student.

Manezh
MANEZH (Manege) is a building on the
western side of the Kremlin. It is near Alexan-
drovsky Gardens. Now it is the Central Exhibi-
tion Hall.
Manezh was built in 1817 for parades and
the training of the Moscow cavalry, and as a
memorial to the Russian victory in 1812.
The walls are 166.1 x 44.7 m long.
There is not a single internal support. The
roof rests on crosswise timber rafters. It is
the first building of such construction in Mos-
cow.
Architect Osip Sove, ornamented the buil-
ding with strong half columns and decorated
the walls. The building was completed in 6 months. Contemporaries wrote that
there was "nothing anywhere in Europe." Many engineers have made a study
of the roof, which has been described in many building textbooks.
In the 19th century the Manezh became a major cultural centre in the city.
It was used for different exhibitions. In 1908 the building was used for the first
international exhibition of cars, bicycles and sports equipment.

The finest musicians in Russia and Europe, including Hector Berlioz, played
at gala concerts at the Manezh. On December 27, 1867, Berlioz conducted a
choir and orchestra of 700 there, playing his own music and that of Russian
composers, before an audience of 12,000.
In 1957 it was decided that Manezh should be turned into a Central Exhibi-
tion Hall. Since then it has housed many art exhibitions which attract over a
million visitors a year.

The Diamond Treasury
The Diamond Treasury of Russia is a
world-famous collection of jewellery.
For many centuries Russian monarchs
kept treasures that amaze with fantastic
splendour.
There was a special store-room for the tsar
treasures in the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg.
It was called the Diamond Room. The decree of
Peter I of 1719 on special attention to keeping
the Crown Regalia as state treasures confirms
the significance of the collection.
In 1762 the Grand Imperial Crown was
created for the coronation of Catherine the
Great. The beauty of the crown eclipsed every
other crown of all countries and all times. It
was the symbol of power and might of the
Russian emperors.
The sceptre crowned with the two-headed
eagle, the Emblem of the Russian Empire,
was the symbol of temporal power. The scep-
tre was decorated with the world-famous Or-
lov diamond.
The gold orb crowned with a blue sapphire
and a cross was the symbol of ecclesiastical
power. Three gems in the regalia - the Orlov
diamond, the blue sapphire and the scarlet spinel symbolized the colours of
the Russian banner - white, blue and red.
In 1896 the Russian Emperor Nicholas II was the last to use these regalia
during coronation.
In 1914, when the First World War broke out, treasures from the Diamond
Room were transferred to the Moscow Kremlin.

Alexander Pushkin Museum Flat
The Museum is situated at No. 12 Moika Embankment in St. Petersburg
and was opened in 1925. The poet lived there from September 12, 1836 till his
death on, January 12, 1837.
The sad news that Pushkin had been seriously wounded spread around the
city at once. He died two days later.
Thousands of people walked to the house to bid farewell to their dear poet.
In 1987 the museum was restored after long repairs.
Unfortunately there are few of Pushkin's things and most of them are in his
study, where he died. The study is a large, light and clean room. There is a
desk with an armchair, bookshelves with four thousand books in 14 languages,
a writing bureau, a fireplace with a mantelpiece clock showing the time of the
poet's death. One can see some sheets of paper, books, a goose-quill pen
and a bronze inkstand with a figure of a Negro
boy. The figure reminded him of his great
grandfather Ibrahim Hannibal.
In his study there are portraits of his fellow
poets Anton Delvig, Jevgeny Baratynsky and
Vasily Zhukovsky.
The bookshelves with different books oc-
cupy much space. During his life the poet was
fond of collecting old and rare books.
In the hall visitors can see the poet's wais-
tcoat he was wearing at the duel, his death-
mask and the locket with a lock of hair.
Tourists from different countries of the world
visit and admire the Pushkin Museum Flat. If
you're in st. Petersburg do visit this museum.

Kremlin Bells
The ringing of bells accompanied the whole life of Moscow in ancient days.
Bells rang for invasions and during the frequent fires, in cases of popular up-
risings, and to announce victories or holiday celebrations.
Even today bells ring from the Kremlin's Spassky Tower.
At present there are 29 ancient bells in the Moscow Kremlin. Some of them
hang in the Belfry of "Ivan the Great" and in its surrounding buildings.
The biggest bell weighing 65 tons 320 kg can be seen in the embrasure of
the "Filaret building" which rises next to the Belfry under a golden dome. The
bell is called the Assumption Day Bell. It was cast by Yakov Zavyalov with metal
taken from an even older bell which used to hang in the building and was
broken when the Bell Tower blew up in 1812.
The most famous of all bells, the Tsar Bell, stands on the ground at the foot
of the Belfry of "Ivan the Great", and is surrounded by people from morning
till night. Its history, in brief outline, is the following. In 1730 Empress Anna
Ivanovna ordered that a bell weighing 9,000 poods (126 tons) should be
cast. Germain, the casting master of the French king, thought it was a joke.
Ivan Motorin, the most famous casting master in Moscow in those days, dec-
lared that it was possible.

A special casting pit was dug in Ivanovskaya Square in the Kremlin. The pit
was 10 metres deep. Much copper, tin and sulphur, as well as 72 kg of gold
and more than 500 kg of silver were used.
Ivan Motorin failed to finish the casting, and it was completed by his son
Mikhail. Apart from all kinds of ornaments found on the bell, there is the follo-
wing inscription: "This bell was cast by Russian craftsman Ivan Motorin, the
son of Fyodor Motorin, and his son Mikhail Motorin."
The casting was successful and finally the bell stood ready for lifting on an
iron grating. During a very bad fire that raged in the Kremlin on May 29, 1737,
the wooden building above the pit caught fire. People ran .to extinguish the fla-
mes and poured water onto the burning log that had fallen into the pit. Due to
uneven and fast cooling, the metal cracked and a fragment weighing 11.5 tons
fell out.
The bell remained in the pit for a hundred years. In the 19th century it was
hoisted onto a white stone pedestal for public observation.
Here are a few figures about the dimensions and weight of the giant. It is
6 metres 14 cm tall, has a diameter of 6 metres 60 cm, and weighs 202 tons
924 kg. Hence its name - the Tsar Bell.
The National Treasure of Russia
1. The Depository's collection of historical and artistic pieces began to take
shape in 1922. It comprised articles of jewelry from the eighteenth century to
the middle of the nineteenth century and the Russian Crown Jewels, which
were previously kept in the Diamond Room of the Winter Palace in St. Peter-
sburg. These articles, known as the Russian Diamond Treasury, made up the
nucleus of the future collection.
2. The Diamond Treasury is one of the world's major collections of unique
precious stones and rare pieces of jewelry. It is one of the "big three" (the
other are the Tower of London and the Teheran Markazi Bank): depositories
holding exceptional treasures.
3. Intended by Peter I to store Russia's Crown Jewels, the Diamond Room
held the tokens of Imperial power, of which the main were the crown, the orb
and the sceptre.
4. The political significance and enormous value of the crown jewels, which
were the symbol of power, necessitated special custody regulations. The list of
officials responsible for their safe-keeping and their duties were specified in

Large Clasp-Agrafe
ukasy issues by Peter I in 1719; for example, each of the officials had to
secure the treasury doors with its own lock. But in the years that followed
the monarchs began to use pieces from the Diamond Room to bestow gifts
of various kinds, including gifts to high-placed persons abroad; some of
the articles were redesigned according to current fashions and some were
sold.
5. After the outbreak of World War I in August 1914 the stock of the Di-
amond Room was taken to Moscow along with some of the other treasures
so as to forestall the possible threat Petrograd. From 1914 to 1920 valuab-
les from the palaces and country estates of the Russian Imperial family
were also brought to Moscow. A large part of these was installed in the
Armoury Chamber of the Moscow Kremlin.
6. But in 1927 and 1932, in keeping with the rulings of the USSR Council
of People's Commissars and the Board of the State Bank of the USSR,
some of the treasures were sold abroad.
7. Along with the famous pieces crafted in the eighteenth and ninete-
enth centuries, this display includes unique selections of nuggets, magnifi-
cent specimens of uncut diamonds from Yakutia and gemstones from the
Urals, East Siberia and other sites, which the Depository received from the
1930s to the 1990s. There is also a new line: jewelry crafted in our own
time; many of the pieces, specially designed for the display by masters
from the Depository's own workshop, the pieces are remarkable for their
technical excellence.
8. In the 1980s and the following decade a full-fledged collection of art
objects began to take shape on the basis of the Depository's stock. It in-
cludes exhibits by Russian and foreign jewellers, gold and silver tableware,
and decorative appointments from the mid-eighteenth century to the
1980s.

Russian Orders
1. The State Historical Museum is one of the world's biggest repositories of
historical relics.
The Museum's numismatic collection is of world importance. numbering
more than 1.5 million objects - medals. orders, coins, paper money, etc.
2. The Russian award system originated almost simultaneously with the
formation of the Russian state. The customs of awarding a special sign of dis-
tinction for military exploits, a neck gold ugrivna" (medallion), existed in Kiev
Russ already in the 11th-12th centuries. Later, in the 15th-16th centuries, the
tradition of the mass awarding of special medals to all participants in a campa-
ign originated in Russia, and it was the only country in the world at the time to
do so. The award was presented to all the participants in the event irrespective
of deg ree of participation.
3. In England, for instance, the first mass awarding of a specially minted
medal to the participants in a battle was recorded only in 1670. As to other
countries, they resorted to this practice even later, only in the middle of the
18th century.
The first Russian order, that of St. Andrew, was instituted at the very close
of the 17th century.
Peter the Great indicated who was eligible for this order and for what:
U.. . To some as an appreciation of and award for loyalty, courage and various
services to us and the country."

Peter himself received the St. Andrew Order only five years after it was
instituted - for military exploit in 1703. In May of that year Russian Guards
infantrymen approached in rowing boats two ships Swedish, one armed with
ten guns and the other with fourteen. The Russian captured them although
being armed only with muskets and sabres. The operation was commanded by
the emperor himself. Peter the Great won the award for this action.
4. The famous Battle of Poltava between Russian and Swedish troops
took place in June, 1709, and sealed the outcome of the difficult Northern
War that Russia had been conducting to secure an outlet into the Baltic Sea.
The entire Russian artillery in that battle was commanded by one of Peter's
closest associates, General Yakov Vilimovich Bruce. The latter was one of
the few military commanders to receive the St. Andrew Order for the victo-
rious Battle of Poltava. The star of the St. Andrew Order, which belonged to
General Bruce, is now on display at the Museum. It is the only surviving Rus-
sian star of the first half of the 18th century.
5. The St. Catherine Order for women appeared in Russia during Peter's
reign. It was instituted in memory of events connected with the unsuccessful
Prut campaign undertaken by the Russian army in 1711.
This order was presented to a male only once - to Alexander, the 13-year-
old son of A. D. Menshikov, for his extremely shy, Ufemale" character.
6. Peter the Great also instituted another order for outstanding military
distinctions and it was named after the famous Russian military commander
Alexander Nevsky.
7. But the idea of an award presented exclusively for military services had
not been forgotten and the St. George Order was instituted in 1769.
The Museum's Department of Numismatics has a precious relic - the star
and ribbon of orders of George which General Suvorov himself had worn.
8. A special George Cross made of silver was instituted early in the 19th
century for soldiers and non-commissioned officers. This cross, for instance,
was awarded to the famous ucavalry woman" N. A. Durova who began her mi-
litary service as an uhlan and later became the first woman officer in the Rus-
sian army.
9. The award system in tsarist Russia was of a markedly class nature.
10. The Soviet award system fundamentally differs from the tsarist one.
11. The first Soviet republican order appeared in Azerbaijan.
12. The All-Union Order of the Red Banner of Labour was introduced in
1928.
The Order of Lenin, the supreme award in the country, was instituted on
April 6, 1930.
13. The highest signs of distinction in the USSR - the titles of Hero of the
Soviet Union and Hero of Socialist Labour were introduced in the USSR in the
1930s. Additional signs of distinction - the Gold Stars of Hero of the Soviet
Union and Hero of Socialist Labour were instituted somewhat later.
14. Several military awards appeared in the course of the Soviet Union's
Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. As a rule, the new awards were named after
outstanding military commanders of our country. Instituted, thus, were the
combat orders of Suvorov, Kutuzov, Alexander Nevsky and Bogdan Khmelnit-
sky. Two orders named after our great admirals F. F. Ushakovand P. S. Nak-
himov were awarded to officers and admirals of the Soviet Navy.

ENVIRONMENT
NO ECOLIG
Ecology is the science of how living things are related to their environment.
Many Americans are concerned about their ecology today. They are concer-
ned about protecting the environment from pollution, overcrowding, and des-
truction of natural resources.

Recycle aluminium cans
Making aluminium from recycled aluminium uses 90% less energy than
making aluminium from scratch.
In 1993 alone, aluminium can recycling saved more than 11 billion kilowatt
hours of electricity, enough to supply the residential electric needs of New
York City for six months.
The energy saved from one recycled aluminium can will operate a television
set for three hours.
If you throw an aluminium can out of the train window, it will still litter the
Earth up to 500 years later.
When you toss out one aluminium can you waste as much energy as if
you'd filled the same can half full of gasoline and poured it onto the ground.
Recycle!!!

plastic bags are worse because they can't be recycled, and the plastic will

Recycle newspapers
Recycled paper could easily be substituted for virgin paper in many cases
without any loss of quality.
Making newspaper from "old" paper uses 30% to 55% less energy than
making paper from trees; and it reduces air pollution by 95%.
REUSE OLD NEWSPAPERS!!! It takes an entire forest-over 500,000 tre-
es - to supply Americans with their Sunday newspapers every week.
Americans use 50 million tons of paper annually - which means we consu-
me more than 850 million trees. That means the average American uses
about 580 pounds of paper each year!
Use less paper
FACT: American offices throwaway enough paper every year to build a
wall 12 feet high across the country. But, right now, we save 200 million of
paper a year by recycling. .
WHAT TO DO: Most paper thrown away in the office just has printing on
one side. Ask your parents to bring home some of this paper so you can use
the blank side for writing or drawing, or cut it into smaller sizes and staple it
together to make note pads.
FACT: It takes 500,000 trees just to make the newspapers we read every
Sunday.
WHAT TO DO: Save your family's newspapers. Find out how to recycle
newspapers in your area.

Save water
Find the Leaky Toilets in Your House.
FACT: A leaky toilet can waste 20,000 gallons of water a year. That's eno-
ugh to fill up a swimming pool.
Find the leaky faucets in your house
FACT: A leaky faucet can waste 3,000 gallons of water a year.
WHAT TO DO: Check all the faucets in your house.
Check the ones outside, too, where the garden hose is. Make sure that it is
turned off, then watch for a minute to make sure that there are no drips. If
there are, get someone to fix it.
Water the lawn early in the morning
FACT: If you water the lawn in the middle of the day when the sun is hot,
most of the water evaporates before it gets to the roots.
WHAT TO DO: It is best to water the lawn in the coolest part of the day.

Turn out the lights and appliances when you are not
using them
FACT: The electric company burns coal to produce the energy that keeps
your lights on. That burning coal gives off gases that cause the greenhouse
effect and acid rain.
WHAT TO DO: Turn off the lights when you leave the room, and turn off
the lights in the room that you really don't need. In the daytime, sit closer to
the window to read instead of turning on a light. Turn off the TV or the stereo
when you aren't watching or listening.

Dear boys and girls!
Take care of your motherland. Don't cut the wild flowers. They may all di-
sappear. Plant one oak tree a year. From one oak a forest grows. It is very
simple. Put one acorn ()I(eIlYAb) into the land. Never throw or break glass bot-
tles. You damage the land. Take only what you need from the land. Give more
to the land than what you take.

Unit 8 fIE)
Plants are the basis of our life on Earth. Yet now, in Britain's countryside, wild
plants are being destroyed on a scale never known before, by pollution, neglect
and wanton habitat destruction.
Meadows, heaths, hedges, bogs and woods - gone forever
Each year 5,000 miles of hedgerow disappear - and the insects.
birds and animals they support.
Half our ancient woods have been destroyed; and, in the remainder,
bluebells, wild daffodils and snowdrops are plundered for the horti-
cultural trade.
Plantlife's vital purpose
Plantlife is Britain's only charity exclusively saving wild plants and the-
ir habitats - from 121 m seashore to mountain top.
Positive action by Plantlife
Plantlife is busy. The highly successful "Back from the Brink" prog-
ramme is saving plants threatened with extinction. You can help save
many more.
Plantlife is buying flower-rich meadows - plant nature reserves -to conserve
cowslips, orchids and hundreds more species. Plantlife is campaigning to stop
peatlands being destroyed.
Plantlife needs you
Anyone can join Plantlife - no need to be an expert. To help save our wild flo-
wers. join Plantlife today.

Declaration of Interdependence
This We Know
We are the earth, through the plants and animals that nourish us.
We are the rains and the oceans that flow through our veins.
We are the breath of the forests of the land, and the plants of the sea.
We are human animals, related to all other life as descendants of the first-
born cell.
We share with these kin a common history, written in our genes.
We share a common present, filled with uncertainty.
And we share a common future, as yet untold.
We humans are but one of thirty million species weaving the thin layer of
life enveloping the world.
The stability of communities of living things depends upon this diversity.
Linked in that web, we are interconnected- using, cleansing, sharing and
replenishing the fundamental elements of life.
Our home, planet Earth, is finite; all life shares its resources and its energy
from the sun, and therefore has limits to growth.
For the first time, we have touched those limits.
When we compromise the air, the water, the soil and variety of life, we steal
from the endless future to serve the fleeting present.
We may deny these things, but we cannot change them.

This We Believe
Humans have become so numerous and our tools so powerful that we have
driven fellow creatures to extinction, damned the great rivers, torn down anci-
ent forests, poisoned the earth, rain and wind, and ripped holes in the sky.
Our science has brought pain as well as joy; our comfort is paid for by the
suffering of millions.
We are learning from our mistakes, we are mourning our vanished kin, and
now we build a new politics of hope.
We respect and uphold the absolute need for clean air, water and soil.
We see that economic activities that benefit the few while shrinking the in-
heritance of many are wrong.
And since environmental degradation erodes biological capital forever. full
ecological and social cost must enter all equations of development.
We are one brief generation in the long march of time; the future is not
ours to erase.
So where knowledge is limited, we will remember all those who will walk
after us, and err on the side of caution.
This We Resolve
All this that we know and believe must now become the foundation of the
way we live. At this turning point in our relationship with Earth, we work for an
evolution: from dominance to partnership; from fragmentation to connection;
from insecurity, to interdependence.

John Muir: American naturalist
John Muir was an inventor. conservationist, explorer. naturalist, and teac-
her. He dedicated his life to preserving nature.
Born in Scotland on April 21. 1838. John was one of eight children. He star-
ted school when he was three years old. The Scottish countryside was the
perfect playground for John. He watched birds, explored meadows and fields,
and climbed the ruins of a nearby castle. His early love for hiking, climbing,
and nature followed him throughout his life.
In 1849 John's father decided to move to America. He took John and his
two younger children with him. The rest of the family arrived from Scotland
nine months later. The Muirs settled in Wisconsin. Pioneer work was very hard
for young John. Land had to be cleared, and logs had to be cut and split to
make fences. Fields had to be plowed, planted, and harvested.
John continued to work on the family farm until he was 22 years old. He
then packed his bags, moved to Madison and entered the University of Wis-
consin. At the university, John studied chemistry, biology, and geology. In the
spring of 1864. John set out for Canada. He began a lifelong journey to explo-
re and eventually protect parts of the North American wilderness.
On his first journey to California, John was amazed by the beauty he saw.
The clear rivers, towering waterfalls, and great variety of plants and wildlife
convinced him that California would be his home. While working for a shep-
herd, John realized that sheep's hoofed feet damaged the delicate plant life.
From these experiences grew John's love of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
When he saw sheep destroy the wilderness. he became more dedicated to
finding a way to save it. He became a famous writer on the Sierras. Through
his writings and continuous work, Yosemite Valley was soon protected by the
state of California.
He found so much destruction of the environment that he set out to save it
His efforts helped make Yosemite a national park in 1890. By 1892, he formed

and became the first president of the Sierra Club. He was a respected consul-
tant on conservation matters from then until his death.
When John Muir died in 1914, he left behind a new way of looking at
America's wilderness. Instead of seeing it as something to be conquered, he
taught us that we must learn to preserve and enjoy the wilderness. John said
it best when he encouraged people to "Climb the mountains. Nature's peace
will flow into you as sunshin flows Jnto trees. The winds will blow their own
freshness into you, while cares wili drop off like autumn leaves."
Answer the questions, please:
1 ) John Muir lived most of his life in America. But in what country was he 'born?
2) How old was John when he moved to America? ..
3) What did John do until he was 22 years old? How did this affect his interest
in nature?
4) At what age did John begin his travels across North America?
5) In what state did John finally settle? Why did he settle there?
6) What quality in John do you like the most?
7) If he were alive today, what do you think John would say about the environ-
ment?

Do you love nature?
Ecology is a science about nature and about the relations of man with it.
Practically, it is a science studying whether we, human beings keep our com-
mon house, our Planet Earth, in a good state and how we use the gifts it is
giving us: water, air, land, minerals, plants, animals etc.
I am Irina Sutokskaya, an ecologist. I've been working in environmental
protection for 20 years now. When I was a little girl I felt already that nature
was the place where I was feeling most natural. From that time my favourite
season has been autumn when I could stroll in the woods enjoying the
autumn trees, gold and purple, gathering mushrooms and thanking Mother
Nature for each of them. Later, when was studying biology, doing research in
ecology and reading books on physics, I understood the physical basis and
the energy of those feelings.
We are really one with nature, our planet and the Universe being connected
with them by every cell of our being. The feeling of being one with the world is

very ancient. It is expressed in many old bo-
oks and myths of different countries. For in-
stance, Chief Seattle in his famous speech at
a tribal meeting in 1854 expressed the feeling
of North American Indians as follows: UEvery
part of this earth is sacred to my people. Eve-
ry shining pine needle. every sandy shore.
every mist in the dark woods, every clearing
and every humming insect is holy in the me-
mory and experience of my people...
We are part of the earth and it is part of
us. The perfumed flowers are our sisters; the
deer. horse. the great eagle - these are our
brothers" .
The same wonderful feeling of being one
with nature was always typical also for Rus-
sian people in old times. Every Russian vil-
lage family had the images of nature eve-
rywhere in the house - the flowers on the
cups, bed covers and clothes, the leaves on
the towels as if reflecting that time when
our ancestors were wiping their faces and
hands after washing with green foliage of
birch tree.
Unfortunately. later our technical civilizati-
on thinking only of material goods succeeded
in destroying Nature and creating the ecolo-
gical crisis on our planet. And it is your chal-
lenge, young people, to restore an ecological
balance on our planet and to leave it clean
and healthy for future generations.

The Nightingale and the Rose
After Oscar Wilde
"She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses," cried
the young Student, "but in all my garden there is no red rose."
From her nest in the oak tree the Nightingale heard him, and she looked out
through the leaves and wondered.
"No red rose in all my garden!" he cried, and his beautiful eyes filled with
tears. "Ah, on what little things does happiness depend! I have read all that the
wise men have written, and all the secrets of philosophy are mine, yet for want
of a red rose is my life made wretched."
"Here at last is a true lover," said the Nightingale. "Night after night have I
sung of him, though I knew him not: night after night have I told his story to the
stars and now I see him. His hair is dark as the hyacinth-blossom, and his lips
are red as the rose of his desire; but passion has made his face like pale ivory,
and sorrow has set her seal upon his brow."
"The Prince gives a ball tomorrow night,"
murmured the young student, "and my love
will be of the company. If I bring her a red
rose she will dance with me till dawn. If I
bring her a red rose, I shall hold her in my
arms, and she will lean her head upon my
shoulder, and her hand will be clasped in
mine. But there is no red rose in my garden,
so I shall sit lonely, and she will pass me by,
and my heart will break."
"Here, indeed, is the true lover," said the
Nightingale. "What I sing of, he suffers; what is
joy to me, to him is pain. Surely love is a won-
derful thing. It is more precious than emeralds
and dearer than fine opals. Pearls and pomeg-

ranates cannot buy it, nor is it set forth in the market-place. It may not be pur-
chased of the merchants, nor can it be weighed out in the balance for gold."
"The musicians will sit in their gallery," said the young Student, "and play
upon their stringed instruments, and my love will dance to the sound of the
harp and the violin. She will dance so ligt=\tly that her feet will not touch the
floor, and the courtiers in their gay dresses will throng round her. But with me
she will not dance, for I have no red rose to give her;" and he flung himself
down on the grass, and buried his face in his hands, and wept.
"Why is he weeping?" asked a little Green Lizard, as he ran past him with
his tail in the air.
"Why, indeed?" said a Butterfly, who was fluttering about after a sunbeam.
"Why, indeed?" whispered a Daisy to his neighbour in a soft, low voice.
"He is weeping for a red rose," said the Nightingale.
"For a red rose?" they cried; "how very ridiculous!" and the little Lizard, who
was something of a cynic, laughed outright.
But the Nightingale understood the secret of the Student's sorrow, and she
sat silent in the oak-tree, and thought about the mystery of Love.
Suddenly she spread .her brown wings for flight, and soared into the air.
She passed through the grove like a shadow and like a shadow she sailed
across the garden.
In the centre of the grass-plot was standing a beautiful rose-tree, and
when she saw it she flew over to it, and lit upon a spray.
"Give me a red rose ," she cried, "and I will sing you my sweetest song."
But the Tree shook its head.
"My roses are white," it answered; "as white as the foam of the sea, and
whiter than the snow upon the mountain. But go to my brother who grows ro-
und the old sun-dial, and perhaps he will give you what you want."
So the Nightingale flew over to the Rose-tree that was growing round the
old sun-dial.
"Give me a red rose," she cried. "and I will sing you my sweetest song."
But the Tree shook its head.
"My roses are yellow," it answered; "as yellow as the hair of the merma-
iden who sits upon an amber throne, and yellower than the daffodil that blo-
oms in the meadow before the mower comes with his scythe. But go to my

brother who grows beneath the Student's window, and perhaps he will give
you what you want."
So the Nightingale flew over to the Rose-tree that was growing beneath
the Student's window.
"Give me a red rose," she cried, "and I will sing you my sweetest song."
But the Tree shook its head.
"My roses are red," it answered, "as red as the feet of the dove, and redder
than the great fans of coral that wave and wave in the ocean-cavern. But the
winter has chilled my veins. and the frost has nipped my buds, and the storm
has broken my branches, and I shall have no roses at all this year."
"One red rose is all I want," cried the Nightingale, "only one red rose! Is _
there no way by which I can get it?"
"There is a way," answered the Tree; "but it is so terrible that I dare not tell
it to you."
"Tell it to me," said the Nightingale, "I am not afraid."
"If you want a red rose," said the Tree, "you must build it out of music by
moonlight, and stain it with your own heart's-blood. You must sing to me with
your breast against a thorn. All night long you must sing to me, and the thorn
must pierce your heart, and your life-blood must flow into my veins, and beco-
me mine."
"Death is a great price to pay for a red rose," cried the Nightingale, "and
Life is very dar to all. It is pleasant to sit in the green wood, and to watch the
Sun in his chariot of gold} and the Moon in her chariot of pearl. Sweet is the
scent of the hawthorn, and sweet are the bluebells that hide in the valley, and
the heather that blows on the hill. Yet Love is better than Life, and what is the
heart of a bird compared to the heart of a man?"
So she spread her brown wings for flight, and soared into the air. She
swept over the garden like a shadow, and like a shadow she sailed through the
grove.
The young Student was still lying on the grass, where she had left him, and
the tears were not yet dry in his beautiful eyes.
"Be happy," cried the Nightingale, "be happy; you shall have your red rose.
I will build it out of music by moonlight, and stain it with my own heart's-blo-
ad. All that I ask of you in return is that you will be a true lover, for Love is
wiser than Philosophy, though he is wise, and mightier than Power, though
he is mighty. Flame-coloured are his wings, and coloured like flame is his
body. His lips are sweet as honey, and his breath is like frankincense."
The Student looked up from the grass, and listened, but he could not un-
derstand what the Nightingale was saying to him, for he only knew the things
that are written down in books.

But the Oak-tree understood, and felt sad, for he was very fond of the
little Nightingale who had built her nest in his branches.
"Sing me one last song/' he whispered; "I shall feel lonely when you are
gone. "
So the Nightingale sang to the Oak-tree, and her voice was like water bub-
bling from a silver jar.
When she had finished her song, the Student got up, and pulled a note-
book and a lead-pencil out of his pocket.
"She has form," he said to himself, as he walked away through the grove-
"that cannot be denied to her; but has she got feeling? I am afraid not. In fact,
she is like most artists; she is all style without any sincerity. She would not
sacrifice herself for others. She thinks merely of music, and everybody knows
that the arts are selfish. Still, it must be admitted that she has some beautiful
notes in her voice. What a pity it is that they do not mean anything, or do any
practical good!" And he went into his room, and lay down on his little pallet-
ped, and began to think of his love; and, after a time, he fell asleep.
And when the moon shone in the heavens the Nightingale flew to the Rose-
tree, and set her breast against the thorn. All night long she sang, with her
breast against the thorn, and the cold crystal Moon leaned down and listened.
All night long she sang, and the thorn went deeper and deeper into her breast,
and her life-blood ebbed away from her.
She sang first of the birth of love in the heart of a boy and a girl. And on the
topmost spray of the Rose-tree there blossomed a marvelous rose, petal fol-
lowing petal, as song followed song. Pale was it, at first, as the mist that hangs
over the river - pale as the feet of the morning, and silver as the wings of the
dawn. As the shadow of a rose in a mirror of silver, as the shadow of a rose in
a water-pool, so was the rose that blossomed on the topmost spray of the Tree.
But the Tree cried to the Nightingale to press closer against the thorn.
"Press closer, little Nightingale," cried the Tree, "or the Day will come before
the rose is finished."
So the Nightingale pressed closer against the thorn, and louder and lou-
der grew her song, for she sang of the birth of passion in the soul of a man
and a maid.
And a delicate flush of pink came into the leaves of the rose, like the flush
in the face of the bridegroom when he kisses the lips of the bride. But the
thorn had not yet reached her heart, so the rose's heart remained white, for
only a Nightingale's heart's-blood can crimson the heart of a rose.
And the Tree cried to the Nightingale to press closer against the thorn.
"Press closer, little Nightingale," cried the Tree, "or the Day will come before
the rose is finished."
So the Nightingale pressed closer against the thorn and the thorn, touched

her heart, and a fierce pang of pain shot thro-
ugh her. Bitter, bitter was the pain, and wilder
and vJilder grew her song, for she sang of the
Love that is perfected by Death, of the Love
that dies not in the tomb.
And the marvelous rose became crimson,
like the rose of the eastern sky. Crimson was
the girdle of petals, and crimson as a ruby
was the heart.
But the Nightingale's voice grew fainter.
and her little wings began to beat, and a film
came over her eyes. Fainter and fainter grew
her song, and she felt something choking her
in her throat.
Then she gave one last burst of music.
The white Moon heard it, and she forgot the
dawn, and lingered on in the sky. The red
rose heard it, and it trembled all over with
ecstasy, and opened its petals to the cold morning air. Echo bore it to her pur-
ple cavern in the hills, and woke the sleeping shepherds from their dreams. It
floated through the reeds of the river, and they carried its message to the sea.
"Look, look!" cried the Tree, "the rose is finished now;" but the Nightingale
made no answer, for she was lying dead in the long grass, with the thorn in her
heart.
And at noon the Student opened his window and looked out.
"Why, what a wonderful piece of luck!" he cried; "here is a red rose! I have
never seen any rose like it in all my life. It is so beautiful that I am sure it has a
long Latin name;" and he leaned down and plucked it.
Then he put on his hat, and ran up to the Professor's house with the rose in
his hand.
The daughter of the Professor was sitting in the doorway winding blue silk
on a reel, and her little dog was lying at her feet.
"You said that you would dance with me if I brought you a red rose," cried
the Student. "Here is the reddest rose in all the world. You will wear it tonight
next to your heart, and as we dance together it will tell you how I love you."
But the girl frowned.
"I am afraid it will not go with my dress," she answered; "and, besides, the
Chamberlain's nephew has sent me some real je\Nels, and everybody knows
that jewels cost far more than flowers."
"Well, upon my word, you are very ungrateful," said the Student angrily;
and he threw the rose into the street, where it fell into the gutter, and a car-
twheel went over it.

"Ungrateful!" said the girl. "I tell you what, you are very rude; and, after all,
who are you? Only a Student. Why, I don't believe you have even got silver
buckles to your shoes as the Chamberlain's nephew has;" and she got up from
her chair and went into the house.
"What a silly thing Love is!" said the Student as he walked away. "It is not
half as useful as Logic, for it does not prove anything, and it is always telling
one of things that are not going to happen, and making one believe things that
are not true. In fact, it is quite unpractical, and, as in this age to be practical is
everything, I shall go back to Philosophy and study Metaphysics."
So he returned to his room and pulled out a great dusty book, and began to
read.

Knowledge is a city, to the building of which every
human being brought a stone.
Emerson, P. Ralph Waldo (1803-1882)
Famous Englishmen
1. Listen, read and find out.
London has been the home of many famous Englishmen. Some were born
there. Some lived there all their lives. Others lived in London only for a short
time but all gave something to this great city.
One of the first names of importance is that of Geoffrey Chaucer, the poet.
He lived most of his life in London. He knew the courts of King Richard II and
King Henry IV. His most famous work, is "The Canterbury Tales. n Chaucer
held official posts in London and is buried in Westminster Abbey.
William Shakespeare also lived in London. He lived there for more than
twenty years. He acted at the Globe Theatre and wrote his plays in London. But
London"s famous men are not only writers. Sir Christopher Wren, the archi-
tct, speot most of his life in London. He designed many beautiful churches,
including St. Paul's Cathedral. He also designed palaces and fine houses.
Music is represented by a very interesting figure. This is George Frederick'
Handel. He came to London from Hanover in 1710. He lived for a time at Bur-
lington House, Piccadilly, now the Royal Academy. After some success and
some failure he at last became famous. This happened when he composed
"The Messiah, II and "The Music for the Royal Fireworks. n Like Chaucer and
many other great artists, Handel is buried in Westminster Abbey.
Another famous London figure is one of England's greatest seamen, Admi-
ral Lord Nelson. He has a very special memorialrn Trafalgar Square. The mon-
ument consists of a very tall column. On top of it stands a figure of Nelson. It
is called Nelson's Column. Equally famous is the general who led the army at
the battle of Waterloo in 1815. This was the Duke of Wellington. His house
stands at Hyde Park Corner. It is sometimes known as Number One, London.
Like Admiral Nelson, the Duke of Wellington is buried in St. Paul's Cathedral.

Composers
For whom did Vivaldi compose his music?
Antonio Vivaldi, the Italian composer who lived from 1678 to
1741, composed most of his music for the pupils of a girls' or-
phanage in Venice.
His job was to teach the violin, but because the choir and or-
chestra there were so good, he composed music for them.
His most famous work includes the Four Seasons concertos-
but he wrote hundreds of other pieces.
Questions:
1) How did Antonio Vivaldi start to compose music?
2) What Vivaldi pieces do you know?
3) What Italian composers do you know?

Who was Beethoven
Ludwig van Beethoven has been called the greatest com-
poser who has ever lived - yet he was deaf for much of his life.
Beethoven lived from 1770 to 1827 He was born in Bonn in
Germany. At the age of 17 he went to Vienna to study under
Mozart. The teacher and the student soon became friends.
Later, he studied with Joseph Haydn, but we know he was
not satisfied and took extra lessons in secret!
By the age of 32, he knew he was going deaf. Deeply de-
pressed, he had to give up playing, but was able to go on com-
posing because he could still hear the sound of the music in his
head. He used to go for long walks, carrying a sketch book in
which he wrote down his musical ideas.
We remember him for many great works - including masterpieces such
as the Moonlight Sonata and his famous Ninth Symphony, in which he intro-
duced choral music for the first time in a symphony.

Who was Johann Sebastian Bach?
Johann Sebastian Bach was a famous German composer.
Bach was born in 1685. He was taught music first by his father,
who was a professional musician, and then, when his father
died, by his brother. He composed 48 preludes and fugues
which are studied in every musical school now.
He also wrote a lot of church music. His music for church
choirs includes 200 cantatas. He led a life full of hardships.
Unfortunately, neither his contemporaries nor his sons who also
were talented musicians could understand how talented Bach
was. His name became world famous only in the nineteenth
century. In 1747. he lost his sight. He died very soon after-
wards, in 1750.

Who was Mozart
Mozart was the greatest Austrian composer. Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart lived only 35 years, but in that time he became one of the
world's most famous composers.
Mozart was born in Austria in 1756. He began composing at the
age of five. His father was a musician and he taught his son to play
different instruments. As a very young child his father took him on a
tour of Europe, playing before royalty. From the age of six he toured
Europe and gave concerts in Austria, Germany, France, Italy and
Switzerland.
As a young man, Mozart settled in Vienna. He wrote symphonies
and several great operas, including "The Marriage of Figaro", and
"The Magic Flute".
He died very suddenly after a short illness. Rumour had it that he had been
poisoned, but it is more likely that he had a weak heart. He died so poor that
only the gravedigger attended his funeral. There are many legends around
Mozart's death. They say two weeks before his death a man in black visited
him anonymously and ordered him to write a requiem. Mozart agreed because
he needed money badly. He was a romantic and impressionable nlan. He felt
sure that it was his death. The visitor in black was just a certain count who
wanted to publish the requiem as his own composition.
Questions:
1 ) What can you tell us about Mozart's childhood?
2) Have you seen any films about Mozart's life?
3) What Mozart operas do you know?
4) What instruments could Mozart play?
5) What do you think of the legends around Mozart's death?

Tchaikovsky
Pyotr lIyich Tchaikovsky, an outstanding Russian composer,
was born in Votkinsk in 1840. He was fond of music since his early
childhood. His mother sang him. beautiful-songs and taught him to
play the piano. But Pyotr lIyich graduated from the Petersburg
Conservatoire only in 1866 because. of his poor living conditions.
He was the best pupil of Anton Rubinshtein. When the Moscow
Conservatoire was founded Pyotr lIyich became a professor there.
He created wonderful music: ten operas, three ballets, six
symphonies, seven large symphonic poems and many other musi-
cal pieces.
"Eugene Onegin", a new type of opera. was a great success all
over the world. His "Swan Lake", "The Nutcracker", "The Sleeping
Beauty" are musical m?sterpieces. Besides, Tchaikovsky was a great conduc-
tor, and he conducted lot of operas and symphonies himself.
In his music he used folk melodies for the musical descriptions of Russian
nature and life.
Tchaikovsky became the first Russian doctor of music abroad. He came
back from Cambridge famous all over the world. Tchaikovsky's compositions
are full of realism. Though he wrote his operas and ballets in the 19th century
they are real to us now.
Tchaikovsky died in 1893, but his music continues to live; it will live forever.
His'music is played by the musicians of all countries and continents. In 1958 at
the First International festival named after Tchaikovsky an American pianist
Van Cliburn won the first prize, brilliantly performing the first concert for the
piano and orchestra by T chaikovsky.

Who was Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953)
Prokofiev composed his first piece of music when he was five.
He entered the St. Petersburg Conservatoire at the age of 13, he
brought to his entrance examination four operas, a symphony and a
number of piano pieces.
After the October Revolution Prokofiev emigrated to America.
However he soon realized that it had been a bitter mistake.
But living abroad Prokofiev remained Russian, a citizen of his
country. At the height of his fame Prokofiev still felt unhappy, home-
sick and lonely, living far from his native land. He missed Russia and
kept thinking about going back. He believed that a composer who
had lost his roots and musical traditions of his nation would inevita-
bly lose the desire to compose and to create. It was only his motherland that
could give him spiritual strength and be a pure source of inspiration.
Between 1927 and 1932 Prokofiev took several trips to the Soviet Union.
His concerts in Moscow and Leningrad aroused great interest among the mu-
sic lovers. People listened to his music in complete silence. During these con-
certs Prokofiev felt that he was listened to by his compatriots.

When he came to Russia in 1927 he wrote: "I have to live in the atmosphere
of my homeland. I have to see Russian winter and its changeable spring. I have
to hear the Russian language and talk to people who are my people, so that
they give me back something I lack here - their songs, my songs. Yes, I am
going back!"
In 1932 after his return to the Soviet Union, Prokofiev devoted all his inspi-
ration to his people. For 20 years until he died in 1953 he served his country
In his new compositions he strove for clarity. The influence of Prokofiev's mu-
sic can still be traced in the works of contemporary musicians. His invaluable
heritage includes eight operas, seven cantatas, seven ballets, seven sympho-
nies as well as numerous piano pieces. Among them there are such master-
. pieces as the opera "War and Peace," the ballet "Romeo and Juliet," and the
cantata "Alexander Nevsky."

Activity
When the music begins, ask each person to close his eyes and imagine
what the music might be expressing.
Tell the others that we are almost always surrounded by sounds, but we
learn to "tune them out." Tonight we want to "tune them in."
After listening to the music or few minutes, ask the family
members the following questions:
1) How does this music make you feel?
2) What colours do you think of when you listen to this music?
3) Can you imagine what might be happening? .
4) Is it fast or slow? Loud or soft?
5) Can you hear a melody? Is it played more than two times?
6) Can you tell when the melody changes a little bit?
7) Can you hear the sounds that are made by the different instruments?
8) Do you feel like quietly moving your hand to the beat of the music? Do it if
you like.
Do not expect immediate answers. Tell family members to think about their
answers while the rest of the music plays. Let them sit back and relax. Avoid
loud talking, which could be distracting.
Ask the same questions when the music is finished. Respect each person's
answer. Each family member is unique and will have a unique response to the
same music.
Take a walk in the country and pay attention to the sounds of birds, the
wind, and even silence. Talk about the sounds. Go home and listen to the third
movement of Beethoven's Sixth Symphony.

Writers
William Shakespea"re: 1564-1616
William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, where he
received an excellent classical education. At the age of eighteen he married
Anne Hathaway, and they had three children. Shakespeare was playwright and
poet. As he rose in popularity, he wrote plays for the famous Globe Theatre, a
round, open-roofed building that housed approximately 2,000 spectators. Lat-
er Shakespeare became one of the owners of the Globe Theatre. Unlike many
writers who never live to enjoy their fame, Shakespeare achieved great recog-
nition during his lifetime. He wrote three types of plays: comedies, tragedies
and histories. He also wrote narrative poems, sonnets and lyric poetry. He is
acknowledged as one of the greatest writers of all time, and has remained
popular with readers around the world.
Charles Dickens: 1812-1870
Charles Dickens was a novelist who provided Victorian England with one of
its greatest champions of reform. Dickens used his novels to identify and ad-
dress many problems of the nineteenth century, such as child abuse, unfair
labour practices, unjustices in the legal system, and weaknesses in education.
Dickens had experienced many of these problems in his own childhood, -and so
he dedicated his life to bringing about social reform. Some of his most popular
novels include, David Copperfield, Oliver Twist, A Tale of Two Cities, and Great
Expectations.
Rudyard Kipling: 1865-1936
Rudyard Kipling was an English novelist, short-story writer and poet. He is
most widely known for his works for children, especially the "Jungle Book."
Kipling was born in Bombay, India, in 1865 but attended school in England.
After completing his education, he returned to India where he worked as a
newspaper reporter for several years. Many of Kipling's stories and novels
reflect his experiences in India and convey the importance of duty and unself-
ishness. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1907.
Washington Irving: 1783-1859
The first American writer to gain international attention was Washington Irv-
ing. He was born to a wealthy New York family and received an excellent edu-
cation. He began his writing career by creating satires about New York society.
He later wrote about the Dutch influences upon the city in its early days. He
attempted to give America a sense of a romantic past like that found in Europe,
and he recorded some of the important developments in the exploration of the
western regions of the country. His most popular work by far was The Sketch
Book, which contains two of his most beloved stories, "The Legend of Sleepy
Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle."
f
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: 1807-1882
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was one of the most widely read American
poets of the 19th century. From 1835 to 1854 he was Smith Professor of Mod-
ern Languages at Harvard. In 1884, 2 years after his death, he became the
first American to be honoured with a bust in the Poets' Corner of Westminster
Abbey, London. He is best remembered for poems such as "The Song of Hia-
watha" and "Paul Revere's Ride."
Mark Twain: 1835-1910
Mark Twain left his hometown of Hannibal, Missouri at the age of eighteen.
His real name was Samuel Clemens, but he took his penname from a term
used by the men who operated the river boats. They would call, "By the mark,
twain!" This meant that the river was two (twain) feet deep. Mark Twain began
his career as a newspaper writer. Later in life he used memories from his child-
hood to create some of his most popular novels, including The Adventures of
Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Twain used humour to
develop many serious themes in his novels and to help society see itself more
clearly.
O.Henry: 1862-1910
O'Henry is a well-known American short-story writer. He had to earn his
living from the age of fifteen and he educated himself with the help of friends.
O'Henry knew people very well, especially the ordinary people of New York. In
his stories you can feel satirical criticism of the American way of life. Most of his
short stories are full of warm sympathy for ordinary American people.
O'Henry was the penname used by author William Sydney Porter. Porter
was a great admirer of another American writer, Edgar Allan Poet and he was
influenced by Poe's style. O'Henry wrote many popular stories and earned a
reputation as the master of surprise endings. He was especially talented at
developing his characters, and at portraying city life accurately. He wrote over
600 stories.

Who was Agatha Christie (1890-1976)
By Deryk James
With her 78 crime novels, Agatha Christie has the distinction of
being the world's best-selling writer, and liThe Mousetrap", one of
her 19 plays, has run longer than any other production in the histo-
ry of the British theatre.
Agatha Christie was born in T orquay, a fashionable coastal re-
sort in southwest England, in September 1890. Her father, Freder-
ic Miller, was an American keen on amateur theatricals.
Despite her mother's view that no child should be allowed to
read until the age of eight, so as not to damage eyes or brain,
Agatha managed to find books to read, including Jules Verne's
science fiction. She liked devising word and number puzzles. Her
formal schooling did not start until she was 13, and two years later
she went to France to study history, art, and dancing.
When Mr. Miller died, Agatha's mother fell ill. Advised to seek a warmer
climate, she chose Egypt and left for Cairo with Agatha, who was then 20.
By the 1970s she was regarded as the queen of mystery writers. She died
in 1976 at the age of 85.
It is impossible to say exactly how many of her books have been sold, but it
is more than a billion copies in English and another billion in 63 foreign lan-
guages. In 1995 her sales were still running at three million a year. She is the
most widely published author of any time in any language, being outsold only
by The Bible.

Science, inventions, discoveries
Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
Leonardo was the greatest artist in the world. He was also an
astronomer, an architect, and an engineer who made hundreds of
inventions. He loved to make wonderful machines. His imagination
made him impatient, and it was hard for him to finish anything.
Leonardo would buy lovely birds at the bird market. Taking them
to his tower, he set them free. Leonardo studied their flight careful-
Iy. I, too, will fly, he thoug ht.
So he made a machine with wings and ropes and pedals, and
Marco, his youngest pupil, tested it. The machine trembled and
shook like a bowl of pudding, but it did not fly. Leonardo made
many such machines.
Next, Leonardo made the giant figure of a man on horseback. It
was to be the largest statue in the world, but it was never cast in
bronze. Some said the metal was sent off to make a cannon. Some said that
Leonardo did not know how to finish the statue.
Leonardo made drawings of the bones, muscles, and organs of human
beings and animals. He also explored the life of plants, flowers, and trees. His
5000 pages of notebooks are a jumble of notes and drawings. He drew stars,
flowers, geometrical forms, and a horse's head side by side.
Leonardo studied the heavens and made notes on the wonders of the
landscape of the skies.
In 1492 most people believed that the earth was the center of the Universe,
steadfast and immovable, with the sun and stars revolving around it.
Leonardo's studies told him something else. In his notebooks he wrote left-
handed and backwards. Why? Perhaps it was to keep people from reading
what they could not understand. In one notebook is the sentence:
EVOM TON SEOD NUS EHT (THE SUN DOES NOT MOVE).
At last Leonardo began to paint. He made a design so extraordinary that all
Florence came to marvel. Alas! The wall was as porous as a sponge! As the
paint sank in, the wonderful picture disappeared before their eyes. So he
painted the Mona Lisa instead.

Faraday puts electricity to work
1. Michael Faraday, who was born in 1791 and died in 1867,
gathered together and set in order all the work of the scientists
who had worked on electrical problems before him.
2. In 1823, he discovered how to make an electrical motor. In
1831, he built the first generator, then called it dynamo. The
modern car has both a starting motor and a generator. The start-
ing motor draws electric current from the car battery to start the
powerful gasoline engine. The generator is driven by the gasoline
engine to recharge the battery and to furnish electric power for
all the electrical conveniences in the car.
3. In 1833, Faraday discovered the effect of passing an elec-
tric current through certain solutions. He called these effects the
laws of electrolysis. This has made possible the refinement of
metals, sliver and gold plating, and the manufacture of many chemical prod-
ucts.
4. As a result of Faraday's work, Morse was able to invent the electro-mag-
netic telegraph, Bell, the telephone, and Edison, the electric light.

Christopher Columbus
Christopher became a sailor when he was fourteen. He
was tall, and his shoulders were broad But Christopher did
not intend to stay a common seaman. He asked questions. He
learned how to steer a ship by the stars, how to make maps,
and how to chart a ship's voyage through strange waters. He
was made the second mate to the captain, then the first mate,
then captain in his own right. He did not sail to India, but he
sailed to all the different lands that bordered the Mediterra-
nean Sea - Europe, Africa, Western Asia. He had bloody
fights with pirates.
When he was twenty-four or so, he commanded a battle-
ship for the city of Genoa in a war against her rival city Venice.
He went on voyages of exploration - South along the coast of
Africa; North along the coast of Europe.
Some men make fortunes at sea. Others lose them. In a terrible storm off
the coast of Portugal, Christopher's ship sank to the bottom, and Christopher
lost everything he owned. He did not even have money to get home.
He soon found work as a map maker in a bookshop in the Portuguese city
of Lisbon. Scholars came to the bookshop, and teachers and travellers. Chris-
topher was a grown man now, but he still asked questions, and he still learned.
Always before he had asked question about the East. Now he began asking
about the West. To the west lay the Great Sea of Darkness. Beyond that-
nothing. The world stopped like the end of a plank, and if you went too far you
would fall off. At least that's what most people said. But some learned men
said no. The earth is not flat like a plank. It is round like a ball. If you sail far
enough to the west, you will reach the east - India.
But how far? No one knew. Some people tried to guess. An Italian doctor
named Toscanelli even drew a map. Here was the Sea of Darkness. On one
side of it. were Spain and Portugal and the islands off the African coast. On the

other side of the Sea was India. It had to be, if
the world was round.
Most people laughed at Toscanelli; but
Christopher Columbus believed him. What's
more, Christopher believed that he himself
was the man to prove that the earth was ro-
und. He believed that God had chosen him for
that work.
But where would he get the money to pay
for such a venture? He needed ships, men,
supplies and goods to trade with the people
of India. Columbus never doubted that he
would succeed. He had no money, but he did
have faith. If he could only find someone with
both money and faith!
He asked King John of Portugal. No.
He asked King Ferdinand of Spain. Ferdinand needed his money to fight a war.
But Queen Isabella of Spain saw the faith in Columbus's eyes. She said,
UAsk us again when the war is over. n
King Ferdinand was winning his war. So once more Columbus laid his plans
before the Spanish King.
Ferdinand still said, "No."
Then ragged, penniless, but still rich in faith, Columbus set out to walk to
France. Perhaps the French King had both faith and money.
But Columbus did not walk far. Royal messengers on swift horses overtook
him and brought him back. Queen Isabella had been talking to Ferdinand, and
so Columbus would have his ships! Three ships. The Nina, the Pinta, and the
Santa Maria.
Columbus set sail from Palos, Spain, on August 3, 1492. He sailed out of
the well-known Mediterranean into the strange and terrifying Sea of Darkness.
He passed the Canary Islands, the last known bit of land.
The map said there should soon be many islands. Columbus saw not
one - only water, vast, unending water.
The sailors grew frightened. The map was wrong about the islands. Was it
wrong about the earth's being round?
"Turn back!" they begged Columbus.
Columbus said, uSail on."
uTurn back," begged the sailors. uWe must turn back."

"We must sail on," Columbus said.
They sailed. Columbus offered gold and rich gifts to the first man who
would sight land. The sailors climbed to the top of the rigging and looked, looked
and looked. One day a sailor called, "Land! Land, ho!" But it was only a cloud.
At last they began to see a few birds and drifting weeds. One day the waves
carried the branch of a wild rose bush!
That night Columbus stood alone on deck. The men were all below, sleep-
ing so that they would be ready to look for land when the moon came up.
Suddenly far ahead Columbus saw a light. He shouted out the news. They all
peered into the darkness. When at last the moon rose, they all saw it. Land! Land!
In the early sunlight the men saw an island. The gateway to India, they
thought, not knowing that it was a gateway to a whole new world.
The sailors who had begged Columbus to turn back now called him their
hero. They said that this date would be the greatest in history - October the
twelfth, fourteen hundred and ninety-two.

Explorer Heyerdahl hunts for lost civilization in Peru.
Oslo. Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl, famous for his
daring Kon Tiki expedition, says he faces the most exciting
project of his life in a hunt for clues to a lost civilization which
lies buried in a Peruvian city of pyramids.
Archaeologists working in North-Western Peru found that
26 mounds, previously thought to be natural features of the
landscape, were pyramids hidden by the ravages of time. The
ancint city is called Tucume.
--nrhis is the most exciting project:1 have ever been involved
in," Heyerdahl, 73: told the "Aftenposten Daily" in an interview.
He will lead excavation work there next spring. in cooperation
with Peruvian archaeologists.
"The whole town is probably intact underneath... it has
never been plundered by grave robbers."
Heyerdahl has devoted much of his life to rewriting the his-
"
tory books on the peoples of the southern hemisphere, claim-
ing that they were much more civilized than previously thought and that their
culture was spread through sea travel.
- -I n 1947, he crossed the Pacific on the balsa wood raft Kon Tiki to prove
that ancient South American peoples could have travelled to the Pacific islands
and populated them.
"A culture which is far older than that of the first Egyptian pharaoh must
have been the basis for the spread of civilization," Heyerdahl said. "I hope
Tucume will be able to put us on the trail of that lost culture."
Local Indian legends tell that Tucume. spread over a vast area of 220 hect-
ares, was founded by descendants of a king who brought his people to the
Peruvian coast on balsa rafts. The pyramids are between 30 and 40 metres

UArchaeologists started digging around
one of the pyramids in 1986. They found gold
masks among other things, but we've only
scratched the surface," he said.
uNone of the other pyramids have been
opened. We don't know exactly how old they
are, but there must have been thousands of
people living in that area. The finds there will
be of the greatest archaeological significance."
Heyerdahl" who now lives in Italy and is
currently working in Egypt, said the Tucume
project would probably take several decades
to complete. He was invited to take part while
on a visit to Peru in 1986.
Althougttlong past normal retirement age,
Heyerdahl has pursued his career of ethnolo-
gy - the science of racial origins and charac-
teristics - with vigour for many decades.
His book on Kon Tiki has sold more than 20 million copies, and two years
ago he visited Easter Island to try to find out more about its huge and myste-
rious stone statues.
In 1970, he succeeded in sailing a replica of an Egyptian vessel, called Ra
Two, from Morocco to Barbados in an attempt to prove that the ancient Egyp-
tians could have reached the western hemisphere centuries before Christo-
pher Columbus in 1492.

What is an astronaut?
The word comes from the Greek, astron, meaning Ustar" and nautes,
meaning "sailor." Astronauts are the men and women who pilot, navigate and
fly in spacecraft. Russian Ustar-sailors" are called cosmonauts, cosmos being
the Greek for uuniverse." The first space flight was made in 1961 by the Rus-
sian Yuri Gagarin. It lasted for 108 minutes. Russia was the first country in the
world to accomplish a manned space flight.
The first woman in space was also Russian, Valentina Tereshkova. In 1963,
her flight lasted almost 3 days. And the first "space walk" was made by anoth-
er Russian, Aleksey Leonov, in 1965, though he was still tethered by a line to

Who was the first man to stand on the Moon?
April 12, 1961, is one of the most important dates in the history of mankind.
On that day, the first manned space flight took place. Only eight years laterl a
man set foot on the Moon for the first time. At 2:56 on July 21, 1969, Neil Arm-
strong spoke words that have gone down in history: "One small step for a man,
one giant step for mankind". '
Equally famous are the words he spoke 6.5 hours earlier on July 20, 1969,
when the lunar module Eagle first touched down: liThe Eagle has landed." The
astronauts stay on the Moon lasted for 21.5 hours before their module lifted
off to rejoin the orbiting command module Columbia.

The' great poet
Editor "Did you write this poem yourself?"
Young man "Yes, every line of it."
Editor "Then I am glad to meet you, Mr. Byron. I thought you
were dead long ago."
Candid criticism
Author "Don't you find my book a little tiresome?"
Friend "Not at all, I find it perfectly tiresome."
'No intrusion
A talkative author, after speaking some time about his piece to Richard B.
Sheridan, said, "Sir, L fear I have been intruding on your attention."
"Not at all, I assure you," he replied, "I was thinking of something else."
That explains it
Mrs. Greene: "Why do you advise Miss Johnson to go abroad to study
music? You know she has no talent."
Mr. White: "Well, I know, but you see, she lives next door to me."
..
Still worse
Johnson: "It must be awful for an opera singer to realize that he can never
sing again."
Jackson: "Yes, but it is much more awful if he doesn't realize it."
Not to be taught
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was asked by a young man how the latter could
learn to compose.
"I can't tell you that," was the composer's answer.
"Well, but you yourself were composing before you were five."
"That's right. But I asked nobody to do it."
The power of his voice
The famous Italian singer Enrico Caruso (1873-1921) was asked by a less
famous but very vain colleague: "Did you notice how my voice filled the hall last
night?"
"Yes, I did," replied the great but modest man, "I even saw a great part of
the audience leave to make room for it."

The Power of Friendship
Once upon a time there were three friends: a stag, a tortoise and a bird.
One night the stag got caught in a net set by a hunter. At first he tried to get
free by his own efforts, but he soon realized that neither his antlers nor his
hoofs could tear a hole in the net and he called to his friend the tortoise for
help.
The tortoise came up and immediately began to gnaw through the strands
one by one. But while' the tortoise toiled away, the day began to dawn. The
hunter who had set the trap got up, took his bow and arrows and set out for
the forest.

Hardly had he entered the forest, when he
was observed by the stag's other friend, the
bird. To distract the hunter, the bird began
flying above his head as though it were woun-
ded. The hunter went after it, while the tor-
toise freed the stag.
When the hunter finally reached the net he
found it gnawed through and empty. In his
anger he seized his bow, took up an arrow
and aimed at the bird. As he was about to
shoot, the tortoise bit his toe. The hunter
cried out missing his target, and the bird flew
away. The hunter then seized the tortoise,
thrust it into his pouch and set off homeward.
On the way, he grew hungry. Sitting down in
the shade of a tree; he started to eat his meal
of rice cakes. As he sat there, the stag ap-
proached him from behind, gently lifted the
pouch on to his antlers and sped away into
the forest. There the bird was waiting for him.
It pierced the pouch with its beak and
went pecking at it until it had pecked it to
pieces and freed the tortoise.

The Last Leaf
By O. Henry
Sue and Johnsy lived at the top of a building with three floors. One of these
young women came from Maine; the other from California. They had met at a
restaurant on Eighth Street. There they discovered that they liked the same
kind of art, the same kind of food, and the same kind of clothes. So they decid-
ed to live and work together. ,
That was in the spring.
Toward winter a cold stranger entered Greenwich Village. No one could see
him. He walked around touching one person here and another there with his
icy fingers. He was a bad sickness. Doctors called him Pneumonia. On the east
side of the city he hurried, touching many people; but in the narrow streets of
Greenwich Village he did not move so quickly.
Mr. Pneumonia was not a nice old gentleman. A nice old gentleman would
not hurt a weak little woman from California. But Mr. Pneumonia touched
Johnsy with his cold fingers. She lay on her bed almost without moving, and
she looked through the window at the wall of the house next to hers.
One morning the busy doctor spoke to Sue alone in the hall, where Johnsy
could not hear.
"She has a very small chance," he said. "She has a chance, if she wants to live.
If people don't want to live, I can't do much for them . Your little lady has decided
that she is not going to get well. Is there something that is troubling her?"
"She always wanted to go to Italy and paint a picture of the Bay of Naples,"
said Sue.
"Paint! Not paint. Is there anything worth being troubled about? A man?"
"A man?" said Sue. "Is a man worth - No, doctor. There is not a man."
"It is weakness," said the doctor. "I will db all I can do. But when a sick
person begins to feel that he's going to die, half my work is useless. Talk to her
about new winter clothes. If she were interested in the future, her chances
would be better."
After the doctor had gone, Sue went into the workroom to cry. Then she
walked into Johnsy's room. She carried some of her painting materials, and
she was singing.
Johnsy lay there, very thin and very quiet. Her face was turned toward the
window. Sue stopped singing, thinking that Johnsy was asleep.
Sue began to work. As she worked she heard a low sound, again and
again. She went quickly to the bedside.

Johnsy's eyes were open wide. She was looking out the window and count-
ing - counting back.
"Twelve," she said; and a little later, "Eleven"; and then, "Ten," and,
"Nine"; and then, "Eight," and, "Seven," almost together.
Sue looked out the window. What was there to count? There was only the
side wall of the next house, a short distance away. The wall had no windows.
An old, old tree grew against the wall. The cold breath of winter had already
touched it. Almost all its leaves had fallen from its dark branches.
"What is it, dear?" asked Sue.
"Six," said Johnsy, in a voice still lower. "They're falling faster now. Thr
days ago there were almost a hundred. It hurt my head to count them. But now
it's easy. There goes another one. There are only five now."
"Five what, dear? Tell your Sue."
"Leaves. On the tree. When the last one falls, I must go, too. I've known
that for three days. Didn't the doctor tell you?"
"Gh, I never heard of such a thing," said Sue. "It doesn't have any sense in
it. What does an old tree have to do with you? Or with your getting well? And
you used to love that tree so much. Don't be a little fool. The doctor told me
your chances for gettiAg well. He told me this morning. He said you had very
good chances! Try to eat a little now. And then I'll go back to work. And then I
can sell my picture, and then I can buy something more for you to eat to make
you strong." .
"You don't have to buy anything for me," said Johnsy. She still looked out
the window. "There goes another. No, I don't want anything to eat. Now there
are four. I want to see the last one fall before night. Then I'll go, too."
"Johnsy, dear," said Sue, "will you promise me to close your eyes and keep
them closed? Will you promise not to look out the window until I finish \/vorking?
I must have this picture ready tomorrow. I
need the light; I can't cover the window."
"Couldn't you work in the other room?"
asked Johnsy coldly. ') ..., L
"I'd rather be here by you," said Sue. "And
I don't want you to look aUh_oseeaves."
"Tell me as soon as you have finished,"
said Johnsy. She closed her eyes and lay
white and still. "Because I want to see the last
leaf fall. I have done enough waiting. I have
done enough thinking. I want to go sailing
down, down, like one of those leaves."
"Try to sleep," said Sue. "I must call Behr-
man to come up here. I want to paint a man in
this picture, and I'll make him look like Behr-
man. I won't be gone a minute. Don't try to
move till I come back."
Old Behrman was a painter who lived on
the first floor of their house. He was past six-

ty. He had had no success as a painter. For forty years he had painted, without
ever painting a good picture. He had always talked of painting a great picture,
a masterpiece, but he had never yet started it.
He got a little money by letting others paint pictures of him. He drank too
much. He still talked of his great masterpiece. And he believed that it was his
special duty to do everything possible to help Sue and Johnsy.
Sue found him in his dark room, and she knew that he had been drinking.
She could smell it. She told him about Johnsy and the leaves on the vine. She
said that she was afraid that Johnsy would indeed sail down, down like the
leaf. Her hold on the world was growing weaker.
Old Behrman shouted his anger over such an idea.
"What!" he cried. "Are there such fools? Do people die because leaves
drop off a tree? I have not heard of such a thing. No, I will not come up and sit
while you make a picture of me. Why do you allow her to think such a thing?
That poor little Johnsy!"
"She is very sick and weak," said Sue. "The sickness has put these strange
ideas into her mind. Mr. Behrman, if you won't come, you won't. But I don't
think you're very nice."
"This is like a woman!" shouted Behrman. "Who said I will not come? Go. I
come with you. For half an hour I have been trying to say that I will come. God!
This is not any place for someone so good as Johnsy to lie sick. Some day I
shall paint my masterpiece, and we shall all go away from here. God! Yes."
Johnsy was sleeping when they went up. Sue covered the window, and took
Behrman into the other room. There they fearfully looked out the window at the
tree. Then they looked at each other for a moment without speaking. A cold
rain was falling, with a little snow in it too.
Behrman sat down, and Sue began to paint.
She worked through most of the night.
In the morning, after an hour's sleep, she went to Johnsy's bedside. John-
sy with wide-open eyes was looking toward the window. "I want to see," she
told Sue.
Sue took the cover from the window.
But after the beating rain and the wild wind that had not stopped through
the whole night, there still was one leaf to be seen against the wall. It was the
last on the tree. It was still dark green near the branch. But at the edges it was
turning yellow with age. There it was hanging from a branch nearly twenty feet
above the ground.
"It is the last one," said Johnsy. "I thought it would surely fall during the
night. I heard the wind. It will fall today, and I shall die at the same time."
"Dear, dear Johnsy!" said Sue. "Think of me, if you won't think of yourself.
What would I do?" '.
But Johnsy did not answer. The most lonely thing in the world is a soul
when it is preparing to go on its far journey. The ties that held her to friendship
and to earth were breaking, one by one.

The day slowly passed. As it grew dark, they could still see the leaf hanging
from its branch against the wall. And then, as the night came, the north wind
began to blow again. The rain still beat against the windows. When it was light
enough the next morning, Johnsy again commanded that she be allowed to
see.
The leaf was' still there.
Johnsy lay for a long time looking at it. And then she called to Sue, who was
cooking something for her to eat.
"I've been a bad girl, Sue," said Johnsy. "Something has made that last
leaf stay there to show me how bad I was. It is wrong to want to die. I'll try to
eat now. But first bring me a looking-glass, so that I can see myself. And then
I'll sit up and watch you cook."
An hour later she said, "Sue, some day I hope to paint the Bay of Naples."
The doctor came in the afternoon. Sue followed him into the hall outside
Johnsy's room to talk to him. .
"The chances are good," said the doctor. He took Sue's thin, shaking hand
in his. "Give her good care, and she'll get well. And now I must see another
sick person in this house. His name is Behrman. A painter, I believe. Pneumo-
nia, too. He is an old, weak man, and he is very ill. There is no hope for him.
But we take him to the hospital today. We'll make it as easy for him as we can."
The next day the doctor said to Sue: "She's safe. You have done it. Food
and care now - that's aiL"
And that afternoon Sue came to the bed where Johnsy lay. She put one
arm around her.
"I have something to tell you," she said. "Mr. Behrman died of pneumonia
today in the hospital. He was ill only two days. Someone found him on the
morning of the first day, in his room. He was helpless with pain.
"His shoes and his clothes were wet and as cold as ice. Everyone wondered
where he had been. The night had been so cold.
"And then they found some things. There was a light that he had taken
outside. And there were his materials for painting. There was paint, green paint
and yellow paint.
"Look out the window, dear, at the last leaf on the wall. Didn't you wonder
why it never moved when the wind was blowing? Oh, my dear, it is Behrman's
great masterpiece - he painted it there the night that the last leaf fell."

Cat
The black cat yawns,
Opens her jaws,
Stretches her legs,
And shows her claws.
Then she gets up
And stands on four
Long stiff legs
And yawns some more.
She shows her sharp teeth,
She stretches her lip,
Her slice of a tongue
Turns up at the tip.
Lifting herself
On her delicate toes,
She arches her back
As high as it goes.
She lets herself down
With particular care,
And pads away
With her tail in the air.

Sarah Josepha Hale (1788-1879)
Mary's Lamb
Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow;
And everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go.
He followed her to school one day,
Which was against the rule;
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school.
And so the teacher turned him out,
But still he lingered near,
And waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear.
Then he ran to her, and laid
His head upon her arm,
As if he said, "I'm not afraid -
You'll keep me from all harm."
"What makes the lamb love Mary so?"
The eager children cried.
"Gh, Mary loves the lamb, you know,"
The teacher quick replied.
And you each gentle animal
In confidence may bind,
And make them follow at your will,
If you are only kind.

There was a little girl, she had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead;
And when she was good, she was very, very good,
And when she was bad, she was horrid.

But fur is deep.
You will be warm
In winter sleep.
The food is gone
But dreams are sweet
And they will be
Your winter meat.

But dreams are bright
And they will serve
As winter light.

The Wind
I saw you toss the kites on high
And blow the birds about the sky;
And all around I heard you pass,
Like ladies' skirts across the grass-
o wind, a-blowing all day long,
o wind. that sings so loud a song!
I saw the different things you did.
But always you yourself you hid.
I felt you push, I heard you call,
I could not see yourself at all-
o wind, a-blowing all day long,
o wind, that sings so loud a song!

The Land of Counterpane
When I was sick and lay a-bed.
I had two pillows at my head.
And my toys beside me lay
To keep me happy all the day.
And sometimes for an hour or so
I watched my leaden soldiers go,
With different uniforms and drills,
Among the bed-clothes, through the hills;
And sometimes sent my ships in fleets
All up and down among the sheets;
Or brought my trees and houses out,
And planted cities all about.

Block City
What are you able to build with your blocks!
Castles and palaces, temples and docks.
Rain may be raining, and other go roam,
But I can be happy and building at home.
Let the sofa be mountains, the carpet be sea,
There I'll establish. a city for me:
A kirk and a mill and a palace beside,
And a harbour as well where my vessels may ride
Great is the palace with pillar and wall,
A sort of a tower on the top of it all,
And steps coming down in an orderly way
To where my toy vessels lie safe in the bay.
This one is sailing and that one is moored:
Hark to the song of the sailors on. board!
And see, on the steps of my palace, the kings
Coming and going with presents and things!
Now I have done with it, down let it go!
All in a moment the town is laid low.
Block upon lying scattered and free,
What is there left of my town by the sea?

My Shadow
I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,
And what can be the use of him is more than I can see.
He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;
And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow -
Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller like an india-rubber ball,
And he sometimes gets so little that there's none of him at all.
He hasn't got a notion of how children ought to play,
And can only make a fool of me in every sort of way.
He stays so close beside me, he's a coward you can see;
I'd think shame to stick to nursie as that shadow sticks to me!
One morning, very early, before the sun was up,
I rose and found the shining dew on every buttercup;
But my lazy little shadow, like an arrant sleepy-head,
Had stayed at home behind me and was fast asleep in bed.

The Land of Story-Books
At evening when the lamp is lit,
Around the fire my parents sit;
They sit at home and talk and sing,
And do not play at anything.
Now, with my little gun, I crawl
All in the dark along the wall,
And follow round the forest track
Away behind the sofa back.
There, in the night, where none can spy,
All in my hunter's camp I lie,
And play at books that I have read
Till it is time to go to bed.
These are the hills, these are the woods,
These are my starry solitudes;
And there the river by whose brink
The roaring lions come to drink.
I see the other far away
As if in firelit camp they lay,
And I, like to an Indian scout,
Around their party prowled about.

Windy Nights
Whenever the moon and stars are set,
Whenever the wind is high,
All night long in the dark and wet,
A man goes riding by.
Late in the night when the fires are out,
Why does he gallop and gallop about?
Whenever the trees are crying aloud,
And ships are tossed at sea,
By on the highway, low and loud,
By at the gallop goes he.
By at the gallop he goes, and then
By he comes back at the gallop again.

Proverb
The Secret Heart
Across the years he could recall
His father one way best of all.
In the stillest hour of night
The boy awakened to a light.
Half in dreams, he saw his sire
With his great hands full of fire.
The man had struck a match to see
If his son slept peacefully.
He held his palms each side the spark
His love had kindled in the dark.
His two hands were curved apart
In the semblance of a heart.
He wore, it seemed to his small son,
A bare heart on his hidden one,
A heart that gave out such a glow
No son awake could bear to know.
It showed a look upon a face
Too tender for the day to trace.
One instant, it lit all about,
And then the secret heart went out.
But it shone long enough for one
To know that hands held up the sun.

IF
IF YOU CAN KEEP your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
IF you can trust yourself when all men doubt you.
But make allowance for their doubting too;
I F you can wait and not be tired by waiting.
Or. being lied about. don't deal in lies.
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good. nor talk too wise;
IF you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
IF you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
IF you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
IF you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken.
And stoop and build'em up with wornout tools;
IF you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss.
And lose. and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
IF you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve you turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on;"
IF you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue.
Or walk with kings-nor lose the common touch;
IF neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
IF all men count with you. but none too much;
IF you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run-
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it.
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

About myself
My name is Kiril. My surname is Pavlov. I'm twelve years old. I was born in
1985 in Pskov. I live at 23 New Street. We live in a small flat on the second
floor. My phone number is one four seven two five three. I go to school. I am
in the seventh form. I like English very much. I like reading. I think comics and
detective novels are easier to read than real books, but I prefer to read novels.
I like music. I play the piano and compose my own songs. I like Russian clas-
sical music very much. My favourite Russian composers are Tchaikovsky, Ra-
khmaninov and Sviridov. I don't like pop music at all. I don't often go out in the
evenings during the week, because I have too much homework, but on Satur-
days I usually go out with my friends. We often go to the park or to the cinema.
I don't like to watch television. I like fresh air and exercise! In the summer I
often go cycling. I play tennis and go swimming. I like tennis. It's very good for
arms and legs. Tennis is fun.
My mother is a housewife. She is warm-hearted, generous, optimistic and
very lively. She has got long dark hair and green eyes. She isn't very tall. My
mother is very beautiful. She is an artistic type. She paints and draws very well.
Sometimes she does pottery and sculpture. She goes to art exhibitions as of-
ten as possible.
My father is a bus driver. My father's name is Nick. He's got a good sense
of humour. He's tall and he's got fair hair and blue eyes. He's in his forties.
He's very handsome. He likes photography and his hobby is woodcraft. In
summer he goes fishing. It's very relaxing.
I've got one brother. His name is Petya. He's seventeen. He is a student.
He is kind and friendly. He is very musical. He plays the guitar very well. He
makes cassette recordings of friend's records. He listens to music in the eve-
nings and often goes to concerts at weekends. He is quite tall and likes to play
basketball. My brother looks very like my mother. I look more like my father.
I've got my father's eyes, but I'.ve got my mother's personality.
My father's mother and father, my grandparents, live in the village. They
have, got a pig and piglets, a cow and a calf, two sheep and three lambs, a
horse and a foal, twelve hens and many chicks, a cat and two kittens. I like to
go to the village and help them with their animals. My other grandmother is a
pensioner. She helps mum to keep the house in order. She likes to cook. She
is a very tidy person and cleans the house every day. She is a very practical
person. She likes making things. She often sews and knits in the evenings. In
spring she likes to do some gardening, but her hobby is to watch T.V. She is
very kind. She likes to give presents. I love her very much. We are all great
friends.

My family
Every family where every_one is responsible for its comfort, success in
work, health and good spirits must be a strong unit. We ought not to forget
that we are members of society and family is the most important thing for each
of us. The children whose parents take proper care of them are very grateful to
them either now or afterwards when they become grown-ups.
As for my family, it is not large. There are four of us: a father, a mother, a
brother and me. We love each other and try to help each other. We are very
anxious when any of us is unhappy in some way.
My father is 38. He is a doctor. He works at a hospital. He treats people
and gives them health and advice. I know he is respected by his patients.
My mother is 35. Her work at a factory is hard, but she likes it very much.
My brother is younger than me. He is 10 years old. He is a schoolboy. He is
a good tennis player. I have seen him playing tennis several times. He likes me
to come to the stadium and see him playing tennis. My father and mother
sometimes go there too.
Certainly my mother is the housekeeper in our family. She is a very good
cook. She knows what is necessary for our family. She goes shopping and
cooks very nice and tasty things. All of us try to help her whenever we can. Dad
often goes to the market. I go to the dairy and my brother goes to the baker's.
Our grandparents do not live with us. They come to see us and we call them
very often. We usually get together on our family holidays (mostly birhdays),
on New Year's Eve or other festivals. Our family members love each other.
Those who come to us say that our family is very nice.

Our flat
When we speak about our flat we like to say "it is cosy". "it is comfortable".
People must have a very cosy and comfortable flat. It is the place where they
live. rest and sleep. They create a pleasant home with their own hands. Every-
one in the family is responsible for its cleaning and keeping it in order.
,
My family and I live in a two-room apartment in a block of flats of five floors.
Our flat is on the second floor. There is a bedroom, a living-room. a kitchen. a
hall, and a bathroom in it. There is a balcony too. There are a lot of flowers
there from early spring to late autumn.
My room is not large. There is a sofa, a writing-table and a chair, a ward-
robe and a piano in the room. My room faces the North. It is very light.
The living-room is large. There is a dining-table with four chairs. a cup-
board. two armchairs. a wall unit and a sofa. There is a T.V.-set, a tape-re-
corder and a record-player in the room. There are also several book-shelves
there. The floor is covered with a beautiful carpet. There are two landscapes
on the wall.
In the kitchen we have hot and cold running water. a gas stove; there is a
table and chairs, a cupboard and shelves. Our home is very nice and hospi-
table!

My weekday
On my weekdays I usually wake up at 7 o'clock in the morning. The alarm-
clock rings and I get out of bed. I go to the bathroom. Then I do my morning
exercises and get dressed. My breakfast is on the table. Mother has already
made it. She gets up earlier and cooks breakfast. After it I leave for school. It
takes me 10 minutes to get there. My classes start at hall past eight. I usually
have five or six lessons every day except Saturday and Sunday. By two o'clock
I'm free. I go home and have dinner. Usually my friend gives me a call and we
go for a walk. I like these walks, because we can chat about trifles and enjoy
the weather. At these moments I feel happy and come home in good spirits. I
am ready to do my homework. I spend about two hours on it. I know that about
half an hour later my mother will come and I go to the kitchen to make the meal
for my parents. They like it. After work they feel tired and the table on which
their meal is ready makes them smile. I like such pleasant moments.
Certainly I do some other house work: cleaning, washing up, ironing and so
on. In order to have a loving family, each person must do his part. We are
friends and all decisions we make together. (What to buy, where to rest, what
friends to invite on this or that occasion.)
My school-mates often come to our place. They like my parents. Some-
times they stay with us to have a cup of tea. We talk, watch TV and discuss
some news.
In the evenings and mornings we spend some time in the open air walking
our dog Spotty.

My school
Everyone must have an education. You can't do without it if you are going
to live an honest life.
All children begin to attend classes at the age of 6-7 years old. Their par-
ents train them to get up earlier on weekdays and let them sleep in on the
weekend. Doctors advise people to get up at the same time every day.
School begins at half past eight. I like my school. It is a big 5-storey build-
ing. It has all the necessary facilities for studies.
On the ground floor there is a cloak-room where I leave my coat and hat.
The gymnasium, the workshops, the director's (principal's) office are on
the ground floor too. If you go upstairs, you'll find Literature and Russian
classrooms, Biology and Physics laboratories, Mathematics and Geography
classrooms on other floors. There are also classrooms for learning foreign
languages where one can see up-to date facilities/special appliances, dis-
plays, etc. We use it during classes and sometimes go there to work indepen-
dently.
There is a library on the second floor. We often go there to borrow books
for our talks, because our textbooks don't always provide us with the neces-
sary material. Besides we can find there different literature: fantasy and detec-
tive novels.
I must say that life in our school where we spend half of our time is very
interesting. OUf director (principal) and teachers know our interests and hob-
bies. So they often arrange parities, olympiads on different subjects and orga-
nize excursions for those who like to travel and visit the monuments and histor-
ical places. It's great fun when we travel for several days.
In our school there are subject clubs. Many schoolchildren attend these
clubs, set up experiments and do research. As for me '1 am a member of the
chemistry club.
Younger children sometimes stay on at school till 5-6 o'clock. They have
dinner and tea there and do their homework.
Certainly they have a rest during the daytime. They play in the school yard
and go for walks.
In the long break we have either a hot meal or a snack.
I usually come home at 2 o'clock.

Spare time
Every day I go to school. I get up early, do homework, have piano lessons
twice a week.
But on weekends I like to do something different. I like to relax. I watch T.V.
or videos. If it rains, I prefer indoor activities: to read books or newspapers, to'
play chess, draughts or table-tennis, to practice woodcraft, to play records, to
write some letters, to draw, to clean the house.
In winter I like to watch Winter Olympics on T.V. I like to watch ski jumping,
hockey and figure skating.
As for my sister she likes to knit and sew. She takes an aerobics class on
Sundays.
In spring and summer I prefer outdoor activities: to do some gardening, to
ride a bike, to go roller skating, to play volleyball and badminton. I like to go
swimming and I go deep-sea diving. I like to go boating too. I go fishing and do
a lot of photography. Of all outdoor games I prefer tennis. Playing tennis relax-
es me. I'm not a good tennis player.
In autumn I like to go to the cinema, to the theatre, to the concerts, to the
library and art exhibitions.
In winter I go skiing or skating..llike to play ice hockey. My sister likes figure
skating.

Sport
A lot of people never exercise. They often eat the wrong food as well.
These people become unhealthy.
In our family all of us are careful about our food and exercise a lot. My dad
and brother run five kiloJ11etres every day. They are very healthy. They like
swimming and running. My father doesn't drink any alcohol and he never
smokes. My Mum and I do aerobics at the weekend. I always eat some fruit for
breakfast: an apple and an orange. I eat a lot of vegetables, but I never eat any
sugar. It's very bad for teeth.
My brother does a lot of sports: swimming, cycling, yoga and jogging. He
likes swimming, because it is good for the back. Cycling is good for the legs,
and it's relaxing. Yoga is good for breathing. It's also very relaxing.
Jogging is good for losing weight, and also very good for breathing. It's
very good for the heart, too. I like tennis very much. Tennis is fun, and very
exciting. It's very good for arms and legs. I like it a lot.

My hobby
Sometimes students ask this question: "What's your hobby?" But not ev-
erybody has one and they say: "I like cycling, walking, listening to music,
watching T.V., reading, talking to my friends."
But a hobby is something like a habit, a pastime, when you devote all your
time to it, you can't do without it.
Some people don't like noise or a great number of people. After a hard
they come home and have a rest sewing or knitting. A friend of mine likes to
spend her free time sewing skirts, blouses, dresses. She can knit as well.
Another friend likes to make everything with his own hands. He can repair:
an iron, a radio-set, tape-recorder and what-not.
Many boys and girls and grown-ups are fond of collecting old coins, post-
cards and stamps.
Some boys and girls are fond of listening to the short-wave bands on the
radio.
Here is a story about Peter's Hobby
Peter is fond of listening to the short-wave bands on his radio. He likes to
search for interesting foreign radio stations. When he discovers a new station
he writes down the details in a note-book and marks the place on a large map
of the world. Peter's cousin, Alan, is also keen on finding foreign radio sta-
tions. In fact, Alan and Peter are having a competition to see who can find the
largest number of different stations.
Peter's mother occasionally complains about the noise, and one day his
father turned off his radio because he was tired of the peculiar sounds that
came from it. However, Peter's hobby helped to save someone's life last
week. He was looking for new stations between the 19 and 16 metre bands
when he came across a very faint signal in Morse Code, "SOS, SOS... Mary
Jane... Position latitude 46° N, longitude 14° W... sinking fast... SOS." A
yacht, the "Mary Jane," was in trouble in the Atlantic. Peter wrote down the
details, then rang up the police and gave them the information. The police
told the Navy and the Air Force about the message, and they were able to
save the man. Apparently his boat had been damaged by a large piece of
wood.
The man decided to reward Peter for helping to save his life. Several days
later Peter received a new radio, larger and more powerful than his old one.

Theatre and cinema
Theatre is a wonderful combination of arts.
Cinema is a marvellous invention of the 20th century.
At theatres people can see dramas, tragedies, comedies, operas, ballets,
puppet-shows and other performances.
Many great playwrights in the world wrote plays which were staged at the-
atres all over the world.
In England the greatest of them was William Shakespeare (1564-1616). He
wrote 37 plays. Many of them, namely "Othello", "King Lear", "Hamlet" and
others are being staged in many countries .even today.
Later on in the 19th century two other playwrights became famous - Oscar
Wilde (1854-1900) and George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950). Even now people
greatly enjoy G. Shaw's play "Pygmalion" which is very popular in many coun-
tries.
At the same time in Russia many theatres in different cities and towns stage
wonderful plays written by Gogol, Ostrovsky, Chekhov and many, many other
authors of the past.
At our marvellous opera and ballet theatres - the Bolshoi in Moscow and
the Mariinsky in St. Petersburg people can listen to wonderful operas and see
brilliant ballets. Up to now Tchaikovsky's operas and ballets such as "Eugene
Onegin," "Sleeping Beauty" and Musorgsky's opera "Boris Godunov," have
been a great success in our country and abroad.
The spectators of theatre performances admire everything, including first-
class acting of actors and actresses, fascinating scenery and costumes, beautiful
music, voices and dances, curious plots and surprising work of the producers.
And what about cinema which has already celebrated its hundredth anniversary?
It is really one of the greatest inventions. It gives knowledge, education,
pleasure and entertainment to cinema-goers on our planet. There are thou-
sands of films for children, students and grown-ups produced in all countries.
There are: feature films, history films, documentaries, science films, news-
reels, animated cartoons and others.
Originally all the films were only black and white and silent films. Nowadays
all of them are sound and most of them are coloured. Cinema-goers admire
the art of scriptwriters, producers, operators, marvellous acting of favourite
actors and actresses.

Environmental Protection
Suppose you get out of your house on an early sunny April day and see...
uOh, what is it?" It is a yellow dandelion. It looks at you from the ground and
says U Protect me, please."
Do you know how much Russian people like it? The poet Anna Akhmatova
and writer Vladimir Soloukhin devoted their verse to it. Faberge, a famous Rus-
sian jeweller, made a sophisticated figure of a. dandelion.
Our land is full of beautiful flowers, plants, trees which grow and blossom
in the meadows, on the banks of the rivers and lakes, in the forests and in our
gardens.
Many flowers have become rare and vanish. Our useful insects: bees, bum-
ble-bees, butterflies, dragonflies, grasshoppers can't live in the atmosphere
of chemicals and pesticides. Excessive radiation and transport are harmful to
people and animals.
But industry is developing sometimes without any care of the environ-
ment.
We know that a great number of people all over the world are taking
part in the policy of controlling the atmosphere, the water, the climatic
changes, because of man's interference in nature.
These problems become very pressing, the subject of many scientific
meetings. Let everybody remember: we live only once and not a very long life.
We have one earth for all those who love it and who do not.

Why must technology bring apology to ecology?
To answer this question we must first of all learn the meaning of the word
"ecology". Ecology is a science which studies the relationship between all
forms of life on our planet with its environment. This word came from the Greek
"oikos" which means "home." This idea of "home" includes the whole planet of
ours, it's population, the Nature, animals, birds, fish, insects, all other living
beings and even the atmosphere around our planet. Do all of them live a happy
and healthy life in our Home nowadays? Unfortunately, it is not so. Indeed,
many territories, water basins, lakes, rivers, seas, oceans - and the atmo-
sphere are polluted with all kinds of technological, agricultural, chemical, nu-
clear and other wastes. The intensive development of sciences, industry and
chemistry in the 20th century has made the pollution of our environment a glo-
bal problem which should be solved by all means.
Besides, rapid growth of our population (there are about 6 billion people
living on our planet now) needs more and more land, food, goods and modern
conveniences for newly-born people. The production of them in large amounts
will greatly increase the pollution of the environment. And what to say about
the awful harm caused to our Home by nuclear tests, atom bombs and acci-
dents at our atomic power stations? Isn't it high time to start solving this global
problem and to make our life in our Home happy and healthy?
Now you know the answer to the question of why technology must bring
apology to ecology. You are right. Because it has polluted and is badly pollut-
ing our environment.
And in conclusion all of us should always remember the wise advice of a
great English writer John Galsworthy who said: "If you don't think about the
future you will not have it. II

Moscow
The best way to see a strange city is to buy a map and a guide-book. Then
I think, you should follow the recommended sightseeing routes. Certainly, that
is not enough to study the city well. If someone would like to learn more about
a city, it is useful to walk along the streets and look around to see historical
places, buildings and monuments. There is no doubt that you should visit art
galleries and museums. Besides this, you may ask a resident of the city to
advise you what places of interest you should see first.
Moscow, the capital of Russia, is one of the largest cities in the world. It
stands on the bank of the Moskva River. About ten million people live in the
city. Moscow is famous for its historical and architectural monuments that
were built by the outstanding architects and sculptors: Kazakov, Bazhenov,
Bove, Mikhailov, Martos, Opekushin and others.
The best starting point of the tour around the city is Red Square, the
central and the most beautiful square in Moscow. It is the place of parades,
meetings and demonstrations. Here one can see the Cathedral of St. Basil
the Blessed, or St. Basil's cathedral, erected by architects Postnik and
Barma to commemorate Russia's conquest of the Kazan Kingdom in 1552.
It is a masterpiece of Russian architecture. Tourists can see the monu-
ments to Minin and Pozharsky. It was designed by Ivan Martos in 1818 in
memory of the Russian victory over the Polish invaders in 1612. The History
Museum in Red Square is a magnificent building besides, it is one of the
major scientific and educational institutions where we can follow the life of
Russian people since ancient times.
The heart of Moscow is the Kremlin, a wonderful architectural ensemble
with three magnificent cathedrals, the Bell Tower of Ivan the Great, palaces,
fortress walls and 20 towers. On the five tops of the Kremlin towers one can
see shining ruby stars. The clock that strikes every quarter of an hour is on the
Spassky Tower. The Kremlin with golden domes and towers attracts every-
body's attention and makes a strong impression on tourists and guests of the
capital.
The Alexander Garden is situated near the Kremlin wall. In 1967 the Memo-
rial architectural ensemble was set up over the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
There are always a lot of flowers at the foot of the monument, especially on
Victory Day.
Some skyscrapers decorae Moscow, including Moscow University where
young people from different parts of our country and abroad study.
Moscow is a scientific and cultural centre where there are lots of institutes,
universities, libraries, museums, technical schools, colleges and secondary
schools. The city leads a varied cultural life. It has a lot of cinemas, clubs,
concert halls, more than 40 drama and musical theatres, including the Bolshoi
Theatre with its famous world ballet and opera, the Art Theatre, The Maly The-
atre, the Vakhtangov Theatre and others.
Muscovites are proud of their museums: the Tretyakov Gallery, the Muse-
um of Fine Arts named after A. S. Pushkin, the Kuskovo museum and Ostanki-
no serfs Art Museum, Kolomenskoye, literary museums and art galleries.
At the Tretyakov Gallery one can see a lot of remarkable paintings by
the outstanding Russian artists: Repin, Kramskoy, Ivanov, Serov, Perov,
Topics f.lm]
Em] Topics
Phedotov, Levitan, Vasnetsov, Shishkin, Polenov and others. Crowds of peo-
ple visit the Tretyakov Gallery admiring beautiful pictures.
At the Museum of Fine Arts there are masterpieces by the great European
painters: Rubens, Van Gogh, Henri Matiss, Pablo Picasso, Paul Cezanne,
Claude Monet, Rembrandt, Botticelli, John Constable and others.
Muscovites are fond of going in for sports. So, there are lots of stadiums,
swimming-pools, sportsgrounds and courts. The biggest stadium is in Luzhni-
ki. It is a green park with many sports facilities: a swimming-pool, a palace of
sports, a skating-rink, tennis courts and other sportsgrounds.
Moscow was the host of the 22nd Summer Olympic Games in 1980. By that
time the Olympic Village, a lot of hotels and sportsgrounds had been built. The
central stadium in Luzhniki had been reconstructed.
The citizens of Moscow enjoy spending their weekends in parks, forests,
gardens, for example in the Park of Culture and Rest, in Izmailovo, Sokolniki,
Fili and others, where one can see amateur actors, films, go boating and ride
on different attractions.
By the 50th anniversary of the end of the Second World War a memorial
had been erected on the Poklonnaya Hill. It has a museum and a monument of
Nika, the Goddess of Victory.
Besides, the monument to Zhukov, the outstanding military commander,
has been set up in front of the History Museum.
Certainly Moscow is worth seeing.

The Tretyakov Gallery
One of the best traditions in Russia was investing in culture by those whose
activity was in some other field.
Pavel Tretyakov and his brother Sergei were Russian merchants. They had
some factories and were successful in their trade. The love for art began
growing in the brothers when their parents bought an old house in Tolmachi,
the place considered by the visitors as one of the most beautiful in Old Mos-
cow.
Moscow was famous for its blooming gardens and a great number of
churches arrayed by golden or silver domes and crosses. According to foreign
visitors' accounts the sparkle of colours reflected by this lIairy" city made Mos-
cow the only town having no likeness to those of Europe.
Tretyakov carried the love for Moscow through his whole life. At the age of
20 he visited the Hermitage in St. Petersburg and was enchanted by the col-
lection of world famous paintings there. He often visited art exhibitions in Rus-
sia and abroad. Being a well-to-do merchant he decided to found a national
gallery for Russian people. It was in 1860. "I have a great desire to make a
storage of fine arts which will be useful and pleasant for my people." His broth-
er shared his idea.
Tretyakov was very strict in selecting pictures. Thus, old paintings and
icons were the subject of his collection. He began to buy pictures from the
Peredvizhniki and in the 80,s he supported the young generation of artists.
They were Levitan, Serov, Korovin, Nesterov and others.
Tretyakov was very careful in choosing the place for his pictures for them
not to loose their beauty. He himself could varnish the paintings and do some
restoration work. .
The icons were collected in a home church. Now the icons are held in spe-
cial gallery storages, some of them are shown to people from time to time.
After the reconstruction in 1995 the Gallery became a very large art place.
Here the visitors can see Andrei Rublev's Trinity (1422-1427), masterpieces of
the 18th and 19th centuries.
Among the painters whose works are exhibited in the Gallery we would like to
mention I. Kramskoi (1837-1887). His portraits of Leo Tolstoy, Nekrasov and an
"Unkown woman" attract great attention.
I. Levitan (1860-1900) was famous for his landscapes. Being fond of Russian
nature he reproduced it in paintings well-known and dear to everybody. Kuindzi,
Aivazovski and Levitan founded a school of realistic landscape painting.
I. Repin (1844-1930) was greatly influenced by Kramskoi. One of Repin's
pictures was UThey did not expect him."
V. Serov (1865-1911). In his childhood he was taught by Repin. Then Lev-
itan, Surikov and Vrubel taught him the technique of colours, the value of re-
sponding to a personal emotional experience. He became a very famous artist.
His paintings "Girl in Sunlight," "Girl with Peaches" made him known in the
world.
V. Surikov (1848-1916) is represented in the Tretyakov Gallery by his
UBoiarynia Morosova" and UMenshikov at Beriozov, II IIMorning of the Execution
of the Streltsy." He had a very deep interest in the history of Russia and is
considered to be a historical artist.

St. Petersburg
St. Petersburg, one of the most beautiful cities in the world, was founded
by Peter the Great in 1703 and it was called so in his honour. The city is situ-
ated on the Neva River and has become the "window" to Europe. It was built by
the prominent European and Russian architects.
St. Petersburg was the capital of Russia from 1712 till 1918.
The Peter and Paul Fortress was built to protect the Neva banks from
Swedish invasion. Later D. Trezzini, the famous Swiss architect. reconstructed
the fortress. It became a prison. Now it is a museum. D. Trezzini erected the
Peter and Paul Cathedral here, which is a masterpiece of architecture. Russian
tsars were buried in it.
St. Petersburg is an industrial, cultural and scientific centre. There are over
80 museums, about 20 theatres, exhibitions, clubs, a university, colleges, in-
stitutes, schools, libraries and parks. The Pushkin Drama Theatre, the Bolshoi
Gorky Drama Theatre, the Mariinsky Theatre of Opera and Ballet are pearls of
the Russian art.
In St. Petersburg there are a lot of parks and gardens where the citizens
can spend their free time.
The Summer Garden is the oldest and most fascinating park. Rare trees,
bushes and flowers grow there. Beautiful marble statues made by Italian
sculptors and a cast iron grille decorate the Summer Garden. There is a
bronze monument to the prominent Russian fabulist Ivan Krylov (by sculptor
Klodt) in the Summer Garden.
The city is famous for its magnificent architectural ensembles of the 18-19
centuries.
In St. Petersburg tourists usually start sightseeing from Palace Square, the
largest and most beautiful one. One cannot help admiring the ensemble in
Palace Square: the Winter Palace (built by Rastrelli) was the residence of Rus-
sian tsars till the revolution.
The Hermitage, one of the oldest art museums in Russia, occupies the Win-
ter Palace and four other buildings. There one can see masterpieces of the
outstanding artists: Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Rembrandt, Velazques and
other unique works of art.
The Russian museum is located in the Mikhailovsky Palace, designed by
Rossi. Marvellous paintings of the famous Russian artists: Tropinin, Repin,
Bryullov, Fedotov, Surikov, Serov, the works of sculptors: Rastrelli, Shubin,
Antokolsky are exhibited here.
The streets and squares in St. Petersburg are very beautiful. Nevsky Pros-
pect is the main street of the city, where there are amazing buildings, shops,
hotels and the remarkable Kazan Cathedral (by Voronikhin) with a colonade
and monuments to M. Kutuzovand Barclay de Tolly. Here in the prospect one
can see the magnificent building of the Admiralty (by Zakharov) and an ensem-
ble of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra. Famous Russian writers, painters, compos-
ers and actors were buried in the Lavra.
The majestic palaces, cathedrals, churches and other buildings, built by
famous architects, decorate St. Petersburg, such as: palaces of Stroga-
nov, Vorontsov, Menshikov, Anichkov. the Triumphal Arch and St. Isaacs
,
Cathedral, erected by Montferrand. St. Isaak's Cathedral, one of the most
beautiful cathedrals, from the observation place of one can see the pan-
orama of the city.
One cannot but forget to mention the Smolny Institute and the Smolny nun-
nery, masterpieces of Rastrelli. Girls from aristocratic families studied and
lived in the institute.
A lot of bridges cross the Neva, the Fontanka, the Moika and the canals,
but the Anichkov Bridge is the most beautiful one.
S1. Petersburg inspired many of our great poets, writers, painters, sculp-
tors, composers and actors. Much of the life and work of Lermontov. Griboye-
dov, Pushkin, Belinsky, Glinka, Chaikovsky, Repin and Kramskoi was connect-
ed with the city.
Citizens, tourists and guests enjoy visiting the suburbs of S1. Petersburg:
Petergof, Pushkin, Pavlovsk, Lomonosov with wonderful palaces, parks and
fountains.
Welcome to St. Petersburg and its suburbs to get acquainted with their
amazing sights!

IL Y A REPIN
lIya Repin is one of the most outstanding Russian artists.
Repin was born in the town of Chuguyev in the Ukraine into the family of an
officer in 1844. He showed his passion for painting in his early childhood there-
fore he was sent to the art school by his parents. In 1864 Repin entered the
Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg. Five years later he graduated from the
Academy brilliantly.
He got acquainted with I. N. Kramskoi, who noticed his talent, and joined
Kramskoi's "Peredvizhnikilt. Among their members there were prominent ar-
tists: Surikov, Perov, Makovskiy, Polenov, Savrasov, Vasnetsov, Levitan and
others. This society played an important role in the painters' development.
When Repin's picture "Barge-Haulers on the Volgalt was exhibited, it
brought him fame and recognition. The painter exposes the oppression of
people, showing their powerful forces and spiritual beauty of Russian people.
We can see barge-haulers pulling _a barge up the river. They are exhausted by
the inhuman labour.
Repin devoted some paintings to the historical events of Russia,- for ex-
ample: "Princess Sophia at Novodevichy Monasterylt, "A Religious Procession
in Kursk Gubernialt, Ulvan the Terrible and his son Ivan on November 16,
15811t, "Unexpected Return" and others. People can't help admiring these
wonderful canvases.
Later the artist turned to another genre and painted portraits of common
and famous people: "Mussorgskylt, "Stasovlt, "Tolstoylt, USerovlt, UPirogovlt,
"Strepetova", "Rubinstein", etc. The portraits are not just talented reproduc-
tions of some individual features, they are images of the world in which those
persons lived. They are the pride of Russian art.
Repin achieved great mastery in his painting. By the end of the century he
gained wide public recognition and was made a professor at the Academy of
Art.

MIKHAIL LOMONOSOV
Mikhail Vasilievich Lomonosov, the greatest Russian scientist and poet,
was born in 1711 not far from Kholmogori in the Far North (Archangelskaya
region).
He began his working life when he was still a boy. The son of a fisherman,
Misha often went with his father to the White sea and to the Arctic Ocean. He
learned much about nature and about the life of his country. At an early age
Lomonosov was eager to learn and read every book he could find. Soon he
knew by heart a few books that he had found.
At the age of 19 the young man left his home and went on foot to Moscow
where he managed to enter the Siavonic-Greek-Latin Academy. His first
years of study were difficult, but Mikhail worked hard and made great
progress. His teachers saw how clever and industrious he was and five years
later he was sent to the Gymnasium of the Academy of Sciences in St. Peters-
burg. His unusual ability as a student became evident very soon, and
Lomonosov was sent to Germany to study chemistry and metallurgy.
In 1745 Lomonosov was elected to the Academy and appointed professor
of chemistry.
M. Lomonosov founded the first chemical laboratory in 1748. His discover-
ies enriched many branches of knowledge. Lomonosov's ideas forestalled the
science of that time. Lomonosov was a great physicist, chemist and astrono-
mer. He formulated the main principles of one of the basic laws of physics -
the law of conservation of matter and motion. Besides this M. Lomonosov
wrote poetry (verses) that had a great effect on the development of the Rus-
sian literary language. The first Russian grammar was written by him as well.
Moscow University was founded on the initiative of Lomonosov in 1755.
M. Lomonosov was generally recognized as one of the most outstanding
persons in the world in the 18th century.
Lomonosov was a great patriot deeply loving his Motherland and had a
great desire to make it a prosperous country.

Why learn English?
A letter of a young teacher
My dear friends!
I, Veronika Arsalan, am presenting the fifth generation of language teach-
ers in our family.
When I was a girl of 10, I already decided to become a teacher of English
like my granny Olga Arsalan who has been teaching English for more then 60
years at different levels by now. That is why I finished an English school and
gfaduated with honours from the language faculty of the Moscow pedagogical
Institute in 1990.
Being a student I had a marvellous opportunity to study for some time at
the Surrey University in England thanks to a student exchange programme.
Later on I had a lucky chance to work as an educator at a joint Soviet-Ameri-
can youth camp.
Imagine my enjoyment when I held in my hands my teacher's diploma for
the first time!
Since then I've been teaching English at a gymnasium and a lyceum with
great pleasure and devoted many weekends and holidays to extracurricular
work: hiking, horseback riding, kayak -paddling, skiing with my pupils or just
having wonderful birthday parties at somebody's home. .
To tell you the truth I used every possibility to tell my pupils that they should
learn English to perfection. I told them how happy I was being able to associ-
ate with people in England, Holland, Italy and France, because all of them
speak English well and were eager to learn as much as possible about life in
Russia, our history and culture. English was (and is) a real treasure of mine
because I could read books and periodicals in the original, go on sightseeing
tours and understand T.V. and radio programs.
As we know, English is becoming a universal language on our planet. One per-
son out of six in the world knows English nowadays. It makes the people's life
more fruitful, interesting and enjoyable. But its greatest role will be in the nearest
future when mankind starts solving the most important problems of war and
peace, ecology, demography, social and moral codes and many, many others.
It will greatly help LIS to reach mutual understanding which will tremendous-
ly improve the people's life on our planet.
That is why, dear pupils, go on learning English as hard as possible. And in
the nearest future it will help you to become highly-qualified specialists and
happy citizens of our Universe.
Best wishes, good luck and much success to all of you, my dear friends!
Yours, fondly
Veronika Arsalan.
