Part 1
\nExercise 1. Read and translate the text.<\/p>\n
Our Family
\nWe are a large and friendly family. There are six of us: grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, my younger sister and I. I have an elder sister, too, she is 22 years old, but she does not live with our family. She has a little family of her own: a husband and a child – a two-year old boy.
\nOur grandfather is a scientist. He is on the wrong side of sixty, but he does not want to retire. He works at the university. He works part-time. He goes to the university two or three times a week and delivers lectures to students and does scientific work. On the days when he is at home, he works in his study, preparing for his lectures and writing a book.
\nOur grandmother is retired. She was a teacher and worked at school. She is recognized head of the family. She keeps house. Of course we help her about the house: all of usdo our share in daily household chores.My sister washes the dishes, sweeps and washes the floor, washes the sink in the kitchen. My work is empting the dustbin, beating the capets, dusting and vacuum cleaning. Our mother and father do most of the shopping. My mother and my sister also do washing. But most of the cooking is done by grandmother. She is a wonderful cook, and all our family likes her cooking very much.
\nFather is a doctor. He works at a large hospital. Mother is an economist and she works at a bank. Both our parents are very busy. Father has a car. In the morning he drives mother to work, then he goes to his hospital. Father also always drives grandfather to work on his university days.
\nMy sister and I go to school. We are both senior formers, so naturally school takes up a lot of our time. We spend most of the afternoons and evenings doing our homework.
\nAt the weekend we are not so busy as on week days, and we can relax: visit or receive friends or relations or just go for a walk. I also enjoy quiet Saturday evenings, when all the members of our friendly family are at home and nobody is in a hurry, and we are quietly sitting in our large and comfortable living-room, talking, joking, discussing our everyday affairs and drinking nice hot cups of tea with something deli\u0441ious prepared by grandmother.<\/p>\n

Our flat is on the sixth floor of a big twelve-storey building. In our flat we have three rooms, a kitchen, a hall, a bathroom and a toilet.

\nOur living-room is large. The floor of our living-room is yellow, the ceiling is white, the walls are blue. The curtains on the windows are brown.
\nThere is a large brown sideboard in our living-room. It is at the wall to the right of the door. In the sideboard there are many plates, cups and glasses. There are some fine vases in the sideboard, too.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Nothern Ireland
\nThe United Kingdom is situated on the British Isles. The British Isles consist of two large islands, Great Britain and Ireland, and a great number of small islands. Their total area is over 244,000 sq km.
\nThe British Isles are separated from the European continent by the North Sea and the English Channel. The western coast of Great Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea.
\nNothern Ireland occupies one third of the island of Ireland. It borders on the Irish Republic in the south.
\nThe island of Great Britain consists of three main parts: England (the southern and middle part of the island), Wales (a mountainous peninsula in the west) and Scotland (the northern part of the island).
\nThere are no high mountains in Great Britain. In the north the Cheviots (the Cheviot Hills) separate England from Scotland, the Pennines stretch down North England almost along its middle, the Cambrian mountains occupy the greater part of Wales and the Highlands of Scotland are the tallest of the British mountains. Ben Nevis, the tallest peak of the Highlands, is only 1,343 m high.
\nThere is very little flat country except in the region known as East Anglia.
\nMost of the rivers flow into the North Sea. The Thames is the deepest and the longest of the British rivers, it is over 300 km long. Some of British greatest ports are situated in the estuaries of the Thames, Mersey, Tyne, Clyde and Bristol Avon.
\nGreat Britain is very rich in mineral resources, it has some deposit of coal and iron ore and vast deposits of oil and gas that were discovered in the North Sea.
\nThe warm currents in the Atlantic Ocean influence the climate of Great Britain. Winters are not severely cold and summers are rarely hot.
\nThe population of the United Kingdom is over 55 mln people. The main nationalities are: English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish. In Great Britain there are a of immigrants (black and coloured) from former British Asian and African colonies.
\nGreat Britain is highly industrialized counry. New industries have been developed in the last three decades. The main industrial centres are London (Greater London), Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Glasgow and Bristol. The capital of the country is London.
\nDuring the twentieth century the position of Great Britain among the countries of the world has changed beyond recognition. It is no longer the leading imperialist state.
\nThe United Kingdom is a parliamentary monarchy.<\/p>\n

Meals in Britain<\/p>\n
A traditional English breakfast is a very big meal – sausages, bacon, eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms… . But nowadays many people just have cereal with milk and sugar, or toast with marmalade, jam, or honey. Marmalade and jam are not the same! Marmalade is made from oranges and jam is made from other fruit. The traditional breakfast drink is tea, which people have with cold milk. Some people have coffee, often instant coffee, which is made with just hot water.
\nMany visitors to Britain find this coffee disgusting!
\nFor many people lunch is a quick meal. In cities there are a lot of sandwich bars, where office workers can choose the kind of bread they want – brown, white, or roll – and then all sorts of salad and meat or fish to go in the sandwich. Pubs often serve good, cheap food, both hot and cold. School-children can have a hot meal at school, but many just take a snack from home – a sandwich, a drink, some fruit, and perhaps some crisps.
\nTea means two things. It is a drink and a meal! Some people have afternoon tea, with sandwiches, cakes, and, of course, a cup of tea. Cream teas are popular. You have scones (a kind of cake) with cream and jam.
\nThe evening meal is the main meal of the day for many people. They usually have it quite early, between 6.00 and 8.00, and often the whole family eats together.
\nOn Sundays many families have a traditional lunch. They have roast meat, either beef, lamb, chicken, or pork, with potatoes, vegetables, and gravy. Gravy is a sauce made from the juices.
\nThe British like food from other countries, too, especially Italian, French, Chinese, and Indian. People often get take-away meals – you buy the food at the restaurant and then bring it home to eat. Eating in Britain is quite international!<\/p>\n

Part 1
\nExercise 1. Read and translate the text.<\/p>\n
The English About The English Weather<\/p>\n
The English weather on the whole is not exceptionally good. It’s very damp, we have a lot of rain. Our weather is very changeable: a fine morning may change into a wet afternoon and evening. Conversely, a miserable morning may give place to a glorious afternoon.
\nThe English summer is usually disappointing. We expect during winter to have two or three months of extremely good weather, sunshine and hot weather, hot enough to bathe, to go to the sea. But summer months are often cool, there is always plenty of rain. Planning summer holidays is not easy because you can never depend on the weather. One year June may be hot and sunny and July and August rainy, another year it might be the other way round. So many people who look forward to the summer holidays, if they can afford it, go abroad for their holidays, though there are so many lovely beaches on the English coast.
\nThe English winter is not cold. The temperature seldom falls below 3-4 degrees. The usual temperature is about zero. The air is frequently damp and foggy. It often rains and it seldom snows. The snow melts very quickly.
\nAutumn is the season of foggy, windy days. A spell of sunny weather in October is called an Indian Summer.
\nSpring is a warm and beautiful season. Spring flowers start to bloom from February. The weather in spring however, is changeable, and even if the sky is blue without a single cloud in the morning there is no guarantee that it may not rain within a short time. It is always wise to take a mac or an umbrella.
\nNo conversation ever starts in England without a comment on the weather. It is almost a formality like shaking hands. “How do you do?”, “Nice day today, isn’t it?”, “Isn’t it hot today?”, “Isn’t it a beastly day?”, “Shocking weather, isn’t it?” – these remarks are often used when speaking about the weather.<\/p>\n
Exercise 2. Are the sentences true or false? Correct the false sentences. Begin your sentence with one of the following: I don’t think so; I’m afraid you are wrong; on the contrary; it’s not so; far from it; you are quite right; I agree with you; as far as I know.<\/p>\n
Exercise 3. Imagine you’ve just come from England. Your friends want to know about the English weather. They are asking you questions. (10 questions)<\/p>\n
Part 2. Lexical exercises<\/p>\n
Exercise 4. Change the following sentences according to the example.

When a frog is spreading … (foggy). 6. When the streets are covered with mud and slush … (muddy and slushy). 7. When the frost is hard … (frosty). 8. When it is warm … (fine). 9. When the temperature is + 25 … (hot). 10. When the temperature has fallen to -25 … (very cold). 11. When the air is hot and dry …(stifling). 12. When the sky is clear … (cloudless). 13. When the sky is coved with clouds … (cloudy). 14. When the weather often changes … (changeable). 15. When the rivers and lakes are covered with ice … (frozen). 16.

If the weather doesn’t turn to worse … (to keep fine). 20. When the temperature falls below zero … (to freeze).<\/p>\n

\nSuggestions: it’s lovely; the weather is nasty; it’s beastly; we are in for a spell of good weather again; the wether is fine; it’s a lovely day; it’s a nasty day; it looks like rain; it looks like frost; it’s pleasant to breathe fresh air.<\/p>\n

\nNick’s Trip to the South and Back
\nLast summer Nick spent his holidays in the Crimea. He went there by plane. He booked his ticket in advance. He rang up the air-travel booking office and reserved a seat for the fifteenth of July. “Will you come for your ticket yourself or do you want it delivered?” asked the booking-office clerk. “I’d like my ticket delivered, please,” said Nick, because he did not want to waste his time going to the booking office and standing in a queue. The plane to Yalta took off at 9 a.m., but he had to be at the airport an hour before to register his ticket. His plane was TU-134. It is a comfortable modern plane. Nick’s seat was near the porthole and he could see how they took off in St.Petersburg and landed in Yalta. They were flying at a height of six thousand metres, so Nick could see only clouds through the porthole. The hostess offered the passengers some snacks and soft drinks. The flight was very pleasant. It took Nick only three hours to get to Yalta. The way back wasn’t so pleasant. Nick could not get a ticket for a plane. He had to stand in a long queue to get a ticket for a plane. When at last his turn came, he said to the booking-office clerk: “Please, I want a ticket to St.Petersburg for the fourth of August.” “I am sorry,” said the booking -office clerk, “there are no tickets for a through train to St.Petersburg. I could give you an upper berth on a train to Moscow, and in Moscow you will have a changing.” Nick thought a little. “Oh well, that’s all right,” he said, “give me a ticket for the Moscow train. After all, there are a lot of trains going from Moscow to St.Petersburg every day, so I hope I will have no problems punching the ticket.” He was right. When he arrived in Moscow, he consulted the time-table and saw that there were ten trains to ST.Petersburg. It did not take him long to punch his ticket. He just had time to drop into a bar and have a snack before his train started. The train was comfortable. Nick had a lower berth in a separate compartment. In the morning he was in ST.Petersburg.

Part 1
\nExercise 1. Read and translate the text.
\nMrs. Richards’ Shopping
\nLast Sunday Mrs. Richards looked into her refrigerator and saw that it was nearly empty. Mrs. Richards does not like when there is nothing in her refrigerator. She took a big bag and went shopping. The best place to do your shopping in is a supermarket. There is a good supermarket not far from Mrs. Richards’ house, and she went there. The supermarket has many self-service counters. Mrs. Richards like it because at a self-service counter you can choose what you like and take it off the counter with your own hands. When Mrs. Richards came to the shop, she took a basket at the entrance and went to the butcher’s counter. They did not have beef that day, but there was a good choice of pork. Mrs. Richards took a good piece of pork and two chickens. She also took half a kilo of mince. Then she went to the greengrocer’s counter, because she wanted some potatoes and cabbage. She did not like the potatoes and decided to go to the market later. But she took a good head of cabbage. After that Mrs. Richards stopped at the grocer’s counter to take a package of macaroni, and then went to the delicatessen counter to see what she could buy for supper. She took a piece of cheese and a piece of sausage. They were selling ham, too, but she decided not to take ham: there was too much fat on it. On the way to the cash-desk Mrs. Richards stopped at the confectioner’s counter to buy some candy and biscuits for tea. She also took a chocolate roll. There were two or three people in front of Mrs. Richards at the cash-desk, and she had to wait a little. When her turn came, she paid for the foodstuffs she had bought and went home. On the way home she called at a dairy-shop to buy a bottle of milk. She did not buy eggs, because her bag was full and she was afraid to break the eggs. She decided to go later for eggs and also to the baker’s to buy a loaf of bread.
