father, my mother, my brother , and me. My father, a tall man with dark short
hair, is 40 years old. He works as a manager at the firm. He likes his work and
spends a lot of time there. My mother, a tall and thin woman with big blue eyes
and fair hair, is younger than my father, she is 38. My mother is a teacher at
the secondary school. She teaches her students foreign languages: German and
English. She also spends much time at school, but she finds time to cook, sew,
knit, and even to help my brother and me with our homework. My brother is only
10, and he is a schoolboy.

     I an 14. I am a student of the college. My college is
far from our house, and it takes me  half an hour to get there by bus. We are
studying different subjects there, but my favourite ones are History and
English. As to my appearance, I’m slim and slender. My hair is fair, my eyes are
blue. I look like my mother. I like to dress in a modern style. Music is my
hobby. I am fond of dancing at the disco. I like to buy and read English books
too. Twice a week, I go to the swimming pool.

   We live in Rostov-on-Don, the biggest city not only in
the North Caucasus, but in the entire South of Russia. It is located on the
right high bank of the Don river. We have a three-room flat in a new block of
houses. There is a nice green park near our house, where we spend a lot of  
our free time. There are many different shops not far from our house. My
brother and I often go shopping.

   Our family is nice, and everybody is easy to get along
with. We take care of each other. We spend much time together. Recently we have
bought a car, and now we often go down to the country to have a  rest on
weekends. In the evening, all members of our family watch TV, discuss everyday
problems. Sometimes we go to the theatre or to the concert.

Text  The place we live in

  We live a comfortable flat in a new house. It is on
the fifth floor. It is neither large nor small. There are three rooms in it: a
living room, two bedrooms. We have also a kitchen, a bathroom, and a hall. It
is a great pity that we have no balcony.

   Our living room is large and light because there are two
wide windows in it. The walls of the room are blue, the curtains on the
windows, and the carpet on the floor are of the same colour. There is no much
furniture there: a sofa, a table with four chairs, two armchairs, and a TVset 
in the corner. All the members of our family spend a lot of time there

    Our parents occupy one bedroom which is not large but
very cosy. There are two beds, a wardrobe, two armchairs, and a TV set in it.
There is a large thick carpet on the floor, and a nice picture on the wall
above the beds.

    My brother and I share another bedroom. There you can
see two beds, a small desk near the window, two chairs at the desk; for me and
my brother. The bookcase is near the door. There are many books in it. Besides,
we have many shelves on the walls. There is a musical centre on one of them. We
have a lot of friends. And when they come to see us, we invite them into our
room. We usually listen to music or play different games.

     Our kitchen is big enough. As a rule, we have breakfast
and dinner in the kitchen together. Our mother is cooking for us, but sometimes
we prepare some tasty things with my brother for our parents.

     The hall of our flat is not narrow. There is a big
wardrobe there. And besides, there is a telephone on a small round table.

     We like our flat very much. We are happy when our
relatives and friends visit us.

DIFFERENT KINDS OF
HOBBIES

         Hobby can be any type of
activity, which people do during their leisure time. Most people choose a hobby
for relaxation, pleasure, or for development of new interests. People of almost
any age can enjoy hobbies. A hobby offers a way to relax after periods of hard
work. Almost any kind of leisure activity can become a hobby. Most hobbies are
divided into four general categories, which may overlap. They are the arts,
collecting, handicrafts, games and sports.

                                                                                                                 
                                                                   There are
such art forms, as dancing, drama, painting, graphic arts, and music.  Each art
form has many possibilities for a hobby. For example, music may include
singing, playing an instrument, collecting records and tapes, learning ballet,
or attending concerts or operas. Painting offers the hobbyist a wide choice of
materials, such as oil paints or
watercolours.                                                                              
                                         

    Collecting is probably the
most widespread kind of hobby, because almost any thing can be collected.
Stamps and coins are the most popular items. Hobbyists also collect such things
as autographs, books, dolls, buttons, etc.   

      Handicrafts attract
hobbyists who can work skillfully with their hands. Many of them are engaged in
needlework activities, crocheting, knitting, and sewing. Some use kits to make
model aeroplanes, boats, and trains. Other handicrafts include ceramics,
metalworking, jewellery making, etc.   

       Games and sports are
popular with many hobbyists who enjoy competition, physical activity, and
exercise. Thousands of hobbyists take part in sports, such as bowling, fishing,
mountain climbing, skiing, and tennis. Popular indoor games include card games,
chess. Nowadays, electronics-related hobbies are becoming increasingly popular.
Many people, especially children, play computer games.

       Author collections concentrate on the works of a
single author. Book collectors especially value editions  with the autograph of
the author.

       Subject collections include books on a particular
subject, such as science fiction, or books about sports or sportsmen. Some 
subject collections are vast with thousands of volumes, but most are much
smaller. 

        Title collections consist of as many as possible
editions of a Single title. The editions, which are translated into different
Languages, are also included. Unique or ancient book collections focus on books
that are unusually beautiful, rare, very old, or of an unusual shape and size. These
collections may contain books with unique illustrations, with rare printing
styles.

       Collectors find books for their collections in
rare-book shops, antiquarian bookshops, secondhand bookshops, and at

Text    INFORMAL
AND FORMAL EDUCATION

        Education includes different kinds of learning experiences. In its
broadest sense, we consider to be the ways in which people iearn skills, gain
knowledge and understanding about the world and about themselves. One useful
scheme for discussing education is to divide these ways learning into two
types: informal and formal

       Informal education involves people in learning during
their daily life. For example , children learn their language simply by hearing
and by trying to speak themselves. In the same informal manner, they learn to
speak themselves, to eat with good manners, to ride a bicycle, or to make a
telephone call. Education is also informal when people try to get information
or to learn skills on their own initiative without a teacher. To do so, they
may visit a book shop, library or museum . They may watch a television show,
look at a videotape, or listen to a radio programme. They do not have to pass
tests or exams.

     We consider formal education to be the instruction
given at different kinds of schools, colleges, universities. In most countries,
people enter a system of formal education during their early childhood. In this
type of education, the people, who are in charge of education, decide what to
teach. Then learners study those things with the teachers at the head. Teachers
expect learners to came speed as their classmates, and to pass tests and exams.
Learners have to pass the exams to show how well they have progressed in their
learning. At the end of their learning, learners may earn a diploma, a
certificate, or a degree as a mark of their success over the years

.

    The school systems of all modern nations provide both
general and vocational educational. Most counties also offer special education
programs for gifted or for physically or mentally handicapped children. Adult
education programmes are provide for people who wish to take up their education
after leaving school. Most countries spend a large amount of time and money for
formal education of their citizens

EXERCISE 6. Read and give a summary of the text

                    Text  GENERAL AND VOCATIONAL
EDUCATION. .

        General education aims at producing intelligent,
responsible, well- informed citizens. It is designed to transmit a common
cultural heritage rather than to develop trained specialists.

       Almost all elementary education is general education.
In every country, primary school pupils are taught skills they will use
throughout their life, such as reading, writing, and arithmetic. They also
receive instruction in different subjects, including geography, history, etc.
In most countries almost all young people continue their general education in
secondary schools.

      The aim of vocational education is primarily to
prepare the students for a job. Some secondary schools specialize in vocational
programmes. Technical school are vocational secondary schools, where students
are taught more technical subjects, such as carpentry, metalwork, and
electronics. technical school students are required to take some general
education courses and vocational training. Universities and separate
professional school prepare students for careers in such fields as agriculture,
architecture, business, rngineering, law, medicine, music, teaching, ets.

EXERCISE 1. Read and translate the text

SCLENCE AND
SCLENTISTS

     The word “science” comes from the Latin word
“scientia”,  which means “knowledge” Science covers the broad field of knowledge
that deals with facts and the relationship among these facts.

     Scientists study a wide variety of subjects. Some
scientists search for clues to the origin of the universe and examine the structure
of the cells of living plants and animals. Other researchers investigate why we
act the way we do, or try to solve complicated mathematical problems.

     Scientists use systematic methods of study to make
observations and collect facts. They develop theories that help them order and
unify facts. Scientific theories consist of general principles or laws that
attempt to explain how and why something happens or has happened. A theory is
considered to become a part of scientific knowledge if it has been tested
experimentally and proved to be true.

     Scientific study can be divided into three major
groups: the natural, social, and technical sciences. As scientific knowledge
has grown and become more complicated, many new fields of science have
appeared. At the same time , the boundaries between scientific fields have
become less and less clear. Numerous areas of science overlap each other and it
is often hard to tell where one science ends and another begins. All sciences
are closely interconnected.

     Science has great influence on our lives. It provides
the basis of modern technology  — the tools and machines that make our life
easier. The discoveries  and inventions of scientists also help shape our view
about ourselves  and our place in the universe.

SCIENCE AND
TECHNOLOGY

     Technology means the use of people’s inventions and
discoveries to satisfy their needs. Since people have appeared on the earth,
they have had to get food, clothes and shelter. Through the ages, people have
invented tools, machines and materials to make work easier.

      Nowadays, when people speak of technology, they
generally mean industrial technology. Industrial technology began about 200
years ago with the development of the steam engine, the growth of factories,
and the mass production of goods. It influenced different aspects of people’s
lives. The development of the car influenced where people lived and worked.
Radio and television changed their leisure time. The telephone revolutionized
communication.

      Science has contributed much to modern technology.
Science attempts to explain how and why things happen. Technology makes things
happen.  But not all technology  is based on science. For example, people had
made different objects from iron for centuries before they learnt the structure
of the metal. But some modern technologies, such as nuclear power production
and space travel, depend heavily on science.
