A. Rattlesnakes are very seldom seen. They can feel our vi­
brations from our walking and then they hide, often behind
rocks, logs or in thick brush. If you don’t want to get a
snake bite, be careful when you walk. Look in front of or
behind logs and rocks. Before you sit down or pick up
something from the ground, look around the area carefully.
Watch where you put your hands and feet. Most impor­
tantly, enjoy snakes at a distance and do not disturb them.
B. One of my favorite hobbies is hiking with friends. It’s great
because you don’t need to carry all the things alone. We
usually decide who takes what. For example, I carry a
compass, a map, a tent, and GPS unit to navigate our po­
sition. Kate takes a repellent, sunscreen cream and some
medicines. Others bring some food and tools. It’s more
fun to hike together and it’s safer of course.
C. Hiking is a great way to enjoy nature and stay healthy, but
it can be dangerous, too. For example, mosquitoes, spi­
ders and other bugs can spoil even the best outdoor hol­
iday. So it’s really important to wear long-sleeved shirts
and long trousers, and a hat. I also recommend to hike
during the morning and early afternoon. Always pack a
repellent and spray it on your clothes and open parts of
the body.
D. Buying a pair of hiking shoes is a very serious thing. This
is not like “they fit okay, they look cool, and I’ll take
them.” Hiking boots should be light and comfortable.
They should keep your feet dry, warm, and protected.
When you have a good pair of boots on your feet, your
hiking experience becomes more exciting and enjoy­
able. If your feet aren’t happy, you can’t be happy, either.

W R ITIN G

1. Im agine that you moved house (переехал). Read


the letter from Jack and answer his questions. Ask
him your own three questions.
Hi, friend!
How are you? How is the weather? It’s getting cold here,
as it’s autumn time.
Last week we moved to a new house in the suburbs. You
know that we lived in a block of flats in the city centre. At first,
we thought about a townhouse or a cottage. Now we live in a
nice two-storeyed detached house with a small garden and a
big yard. The traffic here is not so heavy, and we can ride bikes
every day. It’s quieter and nicer here and I have a bigger room!
I know that you moved house, too. Where do you live
now? Is your new house or flat better, and why? What do you
like about the new place?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Best wishes,
Jack

2. A Daily Menu
3. A Healthy Snack
4. A Good Start
5. An Unhealthy Food
A. Breakfast is a very important meal. If you have it at home,
choose milk, yoghurt, fresh fruit and cereal. These low-
fat foods can give you energy for the whole day. They also
contain a lot of vitamins and minerals you need. Children
who eat a healthy breakfast study better. They are more
active, creative, and concentrate better all day long.
B. You can get hungry at school between meals or classes. So
what should you do? Instead of a sandwich on white bread,
a bag of chips, and cookies try to have something healthier.
For example, some low-fat yoghurt, nuts or a whole-grain
sandwich with lean meat. It is also better to have water and
not juice, because most juices are full of sugar.
C. Gazpacho is a cold tomato soup typical of the south of
Spain. It originated there. In cities like Seville and Cor­
doba summer temperatures are over plus 38°C and gaz­
pacho /gasz'paetfau/ is the best choice for cooling down
quickly. There are various versions of gazpacho all over
Spain, but the basic ingredients are tomatoes, cucum­
bers, onions and olive oil. Other gazpacho recipes
include pepper, bread, garlic and vinegar.
D. French fries are full of salt and calories. Even a small
serving from popular fast food cafes contains about 350
calories. And this leads to putting on weight. What’s

**в8Ж11г
more, French fries are loaded with fat. Frying robs the
vegetables of their natural nutritional value. To make
matters worse, many restaurants prepare fried foods
using unhealthy artificial oils that contain bad fats.

Mi-Yun. Read her letter and answer her three ques­
tions. Ask her your own three questions.
Hello!
Great to hear from you. I hope you and your family are all
right.
In your last letter you asked me about the food we have
for breakfast in Korea.
Well, in Korea traditionally, food eaten in the morning
does not differ greatly from the other meals of the day. So for
breakfast we have rice, some soup, several kinds of vegeta­
bles, Kimchi and grilled meat or fish. Kimchi is a traditional
Korean dish. It’s rather hot and spicy. It is made from Chinese
cabbage, garlic, spring onions, red pepper, salt and sugar.
Today, however, a lot of people often eat Western-style
breakfasts. They normally choose coffee, sandwiches, fried
eggs or cornflakes and yoghurt.
What about the breakfast people have in your country?
What do you usually have for breakfast? What is your
favourite dish?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Hugs,
Mi-Yun

Thomas Alva Edison
Thomas Alva Edison was born on February 11, 1847, the
USA. He was the seventh and last child of Samuel and Nancy
Edison. When he was young, he went to school only for a few
months. His teachers disliked him because the boy always
asked a lot of questions. So he was taught reading, writing,
and arithmetic by his mother. But Thomas was always a very
curious child and taught himself much by reading scientific
and technical books.
Thomas Edison began working at an early age. At 12 he
sold fruit, snacks and newspapers on a train. Later he be­
came a telegraph operator. But he was fired from his job be­
cause he became bored and started playing jokes on his
boss. So Edison decided to change his profession and he
became one of the most talented inventors the world knows.
Edison’s first invention was not successful, but he didn’t
give up. He moved to New York and made many telegraphic
improvements. This brought him money. During this time he
married Mary Stilwell and they had three children.
They soon left New York and went to New Jersey where
Edison built his most famous laboratory “ Menlo Park” . He
hired eighty workers who were chemists and mathemati­
cians, to help him with inventions at his “invention factory” .
The first great invention was the phonograph. It was the
first machine that could record someone’s voice. Edison re­
cited the poem “ Mary Had a Little Lamb” , and the phono­
graph played the words to him. The phonograph was a
sensation and brought Edison international fame.
Edison’s next invention changed the world and technology
forever. It was the light bulb (лампочка).Soon many
electricity at home. It was just a miracle! Everyone thought that
Thomas was a wizard and called him “Wizard of Menlo Park”.
Afterwards Edison also worked on X-rays, batteries, and
the first talking doll. Another of his greatest ideas was “movies”
and the first camera. Edison first demonstrated movies in 1891.
The whole world again called him a genius. But he knew that
having a good idea was not enough. Edison liked to say that
without hard work you could not create anything.

WRITING

Imagine you have a pen friend from England called


Peter. Read his letter. W rite a letter to Peter and answer
his three questions. Ask him your own three questions.
Hi!
How’s life? Hope you’re all right. Last weekend we had a
school outing to Hampton Court Palace not far from London.
It’s a medieval palace where King Henry VIII lived. Our guide
wore a medieval costume! She was fantastic! It was interest­
ing to see what life was like many centuries ago. We visited
the Palace rooms, the kitchens, and the beautiful gardens. I
especially liked the collection of swords and pistols. And you
know, there are ghosts in the Palace!
How was your weekend? Do you like visiting historical
places? Where did you go last? What did you like most about
the visit?
Hope to hear from you soon. Bye for now.
Best wishes,
Peter

you think that just walking is boring, you may try out some­
thing more risky, like mountain biking, kite surfing, horse
riding, kayaking - the Lake District has all these and even
more! The National Park is popular for rock climbing, cy­
cling and water sports, too.
C. Lake Windermere is the largest lake in the National Park.
Visitors can take a day trip on board of a ship and enjoy the
beauty of the Lake District from the water. Tours may last
from 45 minutes to 3 hours - or you can even spend all day
on and around the lake and have lunch on board. But you
should choose a sunny day for that.
D. Weather in the Lake District can change quickly. The
morning may be warm and sunny. It will turn into a rainy af­
ternoon and then a nice warm evening. Local people say they
can have four seasons in one day! They advise to carry an
umbrella all the time, because rain may start at practically
any time of the day.

WRITING

Imagine you have a pen friend from England called


John. Read his le tte r and answer his three ques­
tions. Ask him your own three questions.
Hi!
How’s life? Hope you’re OK. Last week at school we had
our literature club sitting. We were talking about William
Shakespeare, the famous English playwright. He was born
in 1564 in a small town not far from London, called Stratford-
upon-Avon. We learnt a lot about the plays and sonnets he
wrote and listened to some of them recited. That was great!
It was interesting to listen to the beautiful verses! Now I would
like to read Hamlet, one of his best-known plays, and also
see it staged.
How was your last week? I know you have a literature
club, too. I wonder what you can tell me about one of the fa­
mous Russian playwrights.
Hope to hear from you soon. Bye for now.
Best wishes,
John

3. An Eco Protest
4. An Endangered Species
5. Weather Changes
A. The tornado last year was one of the scariest things in my
life. The sky turned a very strange colour, it was brown, yel­
low, grey, blue, and even green. It is scary because you never
see the sky turns green. And the clouds were black. The wind
suddenly started blowing so strong! Then there was a loud
sound, like a train was coming. It lasted about 30 seconds,
and then a few minutes later, the sky turned blue and the
wind stopped blowing.
B. There has been no rain for months now in many parts of
the island. This summer has been hotter than usual with
record temperatures. No rain means no grass. No grass
means animals have no food. There are cracks in the ground
in some places. Farmers are worried about how to feed their
animals. Fire has been a problem in many places this summer,
too. Some rivers have dried up, and it’s hard to fight fires.
C. Bluefin tuna is the largest tuna and can live up to 40 years.
However, it may soon disappear from earth. The population
of Bluefin tuna has become smaller because of too much
fishing and a lot of illegal fishing.
International eco organizations say illegal fishing has already
destroyed the fish in the Atlantic and Mediterranean oceans.
They say we all should take measures to preserve the tuna.
D. Earthquakes are unpredictable. So it is important to know
what to do when it happens, and react quickly and safely. The
most important thing is to stay calm and not panic. If you are
inside a building, don’t go out. You should hide under a heavy
desk or table far from windows. If you are outdoors, go to an
open area away from buildings. The most dangerous place
is near walls.

Earth Hour
Every year millions of buildings around the world be­
come dark for one hour. This event is called Earth Hour and
it usually takes place at the end of March.
The event is organized by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
It started in 2007 in Sydney, Australia, when 2 million people
turned off all lights for an hour. The main idea is to draw at­
tention to environmental problems and to ask people to do
something positive to help the planet. And it’s great that peo­
ple of all ages, nationalities, races and backgrounds can join
this event.
Since 2007 Earth Hour has grown to a massive global
event. The next year already more than 35 countries partic­
ipated in the event. In 2013, already millions of people in
7,000 cities and towns around the world switched off their
lights for 60 minutes.
Every year well-known buildings around the world take
part in Earth Hour. For instance, the Sydney Opera House,
the Petronas towers in Malaysia, the UK Parliament, Buck­
ingham Palace and the Empire State Building in New York.
They all go “dark” , for Earth Hour. The campaign even went
into space when astronauts reduced power on the Interna­
tional Space Station in 2011.
In 2013 in the UK, a popular pop group gave a live con­
cert without electricity for Earth Hour. They were wearing
panda costumes, because panda is the WWF’s symbol. Fa­
mous chefs created special recipes which families could pre­
pare and eat by candlelight. Actors and TV personalities
recorded Rudyard Kipling’s famous “Just So Stories” so that
families could listen to them by candlelight.

Speaker A
Can you imagine there’re people who don’t have very basic
things, like food, clean water, a house, clothes and medi­
cines? I think it’s really sad that some people have to live like
that. Everyone should have a house and be able to live
healthily with proper food. The government and world should
do something about it. People that are rich should also help.
Speaker В
I’ve just read about it. You won’t believe it, but it starts with a
small wave deep in the ocean. Then it may grow into a mon­
ster wave of 30m high when it gets close to the shore. When
the waves become extremely big and high, they attack the
coasts and shores. The waves may kill people and destroy
buildings, so people have nothing to eat and nowhere to live.
And dirty water brings lots of illnesses.
Speaker C
I went horse riding with friends last year. I’m a good rider ac­
tually but that time I fell off the horse. I landed on my head
and almost broke my arm, and hurt my wrist. Now I see that
I was really lucky. Anyway I had to go to hospital because of
the swollen wrist, and stay at home for a few days. Now I’m
absolutely fine and of course I won’t stop horse riding.

Tutankhamun
The kings of Ancient Egypt were called Pharaohs
/'fearauz/. One of them was Tutankhamun /,tu:t(9)nka:'mu:n/,
who lived more than three thousand years ago.
He became Pharaoh when he was about 9 years old, and
his rule was not very important. Tutankhamun also died
young. Historians believe that he died at the age of 18, but
they are not sure how. Probably he had a head injury from an
accident. Others say he died from an infection after breaking
his leg. Like all Egyptian Pharaohs Tutankhamun was buried
in a tomb on the west bank of the Nile.
All of the Pharaohs were buried in tombs like Tu-
tankhamun’s. However, most of these tombs were robbed
by thieves and all the treasures were stolen. But Tu-
tankhamun’s tomb was untouched. Only in 1922 it was dis­
covered by the British archaeologist Horward Carter.
When the tomb was opened, Carter couldn’t believe his
eyes. “Can you see anything?” a friend asked him. ‘Yes,”
said Carter. “Wonderful things!” There were more than 5,000
objects, which included a wonderful golden mask of Tu-
tankhamun.
The ancient Egyptians believed in a life after death, so
they put a lot of personal things into the tomb. They believed
that a person would use them in that life. And in Tu-
tankhamun’s tomb there were clothes, beds, glasses, plates.
Carter also found models of ships, toys and games. There

3. Read the statem ents (1 -4 ) and match them to the

Speaker A В C
Statement
1. The speaker describes a huge shopping centre.
2. The speaker gives advice to shoppers.
3. The speaker talks about planned shopping.
4. The speaker talks about a favourite place to shop.
Speaker A
Actually I always make a list before I go shopping. I put down
the things I really need and can afford. When I’m in a shop I
don’t spend tons of time on it. I know exactly what I need and
go straight to that department. I try to stick to my list. It’s hard
at times, I agree, but it saves me both, time and money. I may
buy something extra but it’s usually a small thing or some­
thing I’ve forgotten to put on my list.
Speaker В
I should say that I’m not a shopaholic, but I love going to Wal-
Mart shop. Wal-Mart is not far from where I live. There isn’t
anything I can’t buy there. And it’s so convenient. They have
a lot of really good and fashionable clothes for some really
good prices. I love buying groceries and school stationery
there. And they have the best chocolate cakes ever!
SpeakerC
I think I could spend a week there or even more. There are
streets of shops of all kinds and they all have names so that
you will not get lost. You can find any brand, any boutique or
fashion there. Really, it’s like a small city. I read there’re

8?
about a thousand shops. If you get tired of shopping, there’s
an amusement park, cinemas, a theatre and lots of cafes.

WRITING

Imagine you have a pen friend from England called


Debora. Read her le tte r and answer her three
questions. Answer her your own three questions.
Hi!
How’s life? Hope you’re alright!
In your last letter you asked me to tell you who my
favourite writer is. This is Agatha Christie, the famous English
detective story writer. Her main characters are H. Poirot and
Ms. Marple, who are as popular as Sh. Holmes. There are a
lot of screen adaptations of her books and I am sure you ei­
ther read her book or saw the films.
Now at school we are doing a project on Russian celebri­
ties. Can you say a few words about your favourite writer or
actor, who is well-known in your country?
Write soon.
Best wishes,
Debora
