3. Discovered by chance

4. Threat of getting poisoned

5. Selected for decoration

6. Several names for one fruit

7. Acquired by a spy

8. Nutritious varieties

A. Kiwifruit, shortened as kiwi, was named after the bird of the same name due to its fuzzy brown resemblance. The curiously shaped birds are endemic to New Zealand, and you’d expect the fruits to be, too. However, kiwifruit actually originated in China under a name that translates to ‘macaque peach’ due to its popularity with the local monkeys. First, New Zealand changed the name to ‘melonettes’, but that failed. Finally, the goose was reasonably replaced with New Zealand’s national bird and the berry broadened into fruit.

B. For centuries, everyone involved in the pineapple’s colonial trade absolutely adored it. The earliest records involve Carib Indians, expert navigators who traded and raided across the islands to collect all manner of bounty. When it was brought back to Europe, the pineapple was regarded as nature’s culinary masterpiece, a tropical delight reserved for English royalty. The women of colonial America competed with each other in arranging creative displays of food on their tabletops, with the sharp pineapple being king of the decorations and undeniable proof of wealth.

C. By now, it is common knowledge that the tomato has a tainted past. Being a member of the notoriously poisonous nightshade family, the bright red tomato was thought by wary Europeans to be toxic for over two centuries. But this was no simple assumption on appearance. Affluent Europeans did die of poisoning after eating tomatoes on their pewter plates. The acidity from the fruit released lead, a component metal of pewter alloy at the time, producing a deadly combination of tableware and tomato.

D. Humans raised and ate chili peppers specifically for their natural flame, producing varieties so intense that they blister skin and blind if exposed to the eye. In the records of conquistadors, the Aztecs and Maya ate chilies with anything and everything. Chilies were believed to have medicinal properties to cure various sicknesses. The smoke was used as a highly effective pest deterrent. If not practicing abstinence from chilies for religious or health reasons, a person who didn’t eat chili peppers would straightaway be presumed a witch!

E. Uniquely, ancestral strawberries originated in both Europe and North America. The French selected wild strawberries for sweetness, but the fruit was still small. King Louis XIV of France desired the Spanish throne, so he assigned a spy, Frezier, to study Chilean and Peruvian fortifications. But Frezier’s duty was not only to discover the military strength of the colonial Spanish. Previously, another dispatch had found unexpectedly large Chilean strawberries. A military engineer posing as a merchant, Frezier purchased the strawberries and brought them back to France.

F. Our favourite squash, the pumpkin wasn’t always able to be carved into sturdy, smiling Halloween decorations. However, even Pilgrims praised the pumpkin’s long storage time and sweetly nutritious flesh. Europeans were incremental to the creation of the modem pumpkin. The earliest jack-o’-lanterns were made from lit coals placed in hollow root vegetables such as turnips and potatoes. As Celtic tradition arrived in America, the pumpkin was grown through artificial selection to become the greatest carrier of fire and light.

G. Breadfruit was discovered by a scientific crew in Tahiti, an island located in the centre of the South Pacific. Eighteenth-century Europeans had gathered to witness the transit of Venus, an extremely rare astronomical event which is similar in nature to a solar eclipse by the Moon. With them was botanist Joseph Banks, who correctly and impressively identified the breadfruit as a cheap and nutritious fruit, albeit for the mistreated slaves of the sugar plantations. King George III directed Lieutenant William Bligh to gather this potentially valuable fruit.

6. remaining in the wild live in Africa

7. such as providing incentives to communities to protect

According to a new study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, cheetahs are heading toward extinction, and different conservation efforts A_____________.

While acknowledging the difficulty in gathering data because of the cheetah’s tendency to travel over vast amounts of territory, В________________remaining worldwide, with most found in six African countries. The Asian population has been nearly eliminated, with fewer than 50 cheetahs estimated to live in Iran.

Since cheetahs roam widely, C______________is not contained in reserves or other protected areas. This has led to an increasing number of clashes with humans as they encroach on the cheetah’s historical territorial range. Because of this, the study’s authors recommend expanding conservation efforts beyond just setting aside protected areas, D_________________the species. Another problem is the demand for cheetah cubs as exotic pets in some Middle Eastern countries. This has led to the illegal trafficking of cheetah cubs, E______________________in transit.

Currently, the cheetah is classified as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, an assessment system for classifying the status of plants, animals, and other organisms F_________________. The study recommends that the cheetah’s status be elevated from vulnerable to endangered.

“Buy land — they aren’t making it any more,” quipped Mark Twain. It’s a maxim that would certainly serve you well in a game of Monopoly, the bestselling board game that has taught generations of children to buy up property, stack it with hotels, and charge fellow players sky-high rents for the privilege of accidentally landing there.

The game’s little-known inventor, Elizabeth Magie, would no doubt have made herself go directly to jail if she’d lived to know just how influential today’s twisted version of her game has turned out to be. Why? Because it encourages its players to celebrate exactly the opposite values to those she intended to champion. Bom in 1866, Magie was an outspoken rebel against the norms and politics of her times. She was unmarried into her 40s, independent and proud of it, and made her point with a publicity stunt. Her aim, she told shocked readers, was to highlight the subordinate position of women in society. “We are not machines,” she said. “Girls have minds, desires, hopes and ambition.”

In addition to confronting gender politics, Magie decided to take on the capitalist system of property ownership — this time not through a publicity stunt but in the form of a board game. The inspiration began with a book that her father, the anti-monopolist politician James Magie, had handed to her. In the pages of Henry George’s classic, Progress and Poverty (1879), she encountered his conviction that “the equal right of all men to use the land is as clear as their equal right to breathe the air — it is a right proclaimed by the fact of their existence.” Determined to prove the merit of George’s proposal, Magie invented and in 1904 patented what she called the Landlord’s Game. Laid out on the board as a circuit (which was a novelty at the time), it was populated with streets and landmarks for sale. The key innovation of her game, however, lay in the two sets of rules that she wrote for playing it. Under the ‘Prosperity’ set of rules, every player gained each time someone acquired a new property, and the game was won when the player who had started out with the least money had doubled it. Under the ‘Monopolist’ set of rules, in contrast, players got ahead by acquiring properties and collecting rent from all those who were unfortunate enough to land there — and whoever managed to bankrupt the rest emerged as the sole winner.

The purpose of the dual sets of rules, said Magie, was for players to experience a “practical demonstration of the present system of land grabbing with all its usual outcomes and consequences” and hence to understand how different approaches to property ownership can lead to vastly different social outcomes. “It might well have been called ‘The Game of Life’, ‘remarked Magie’, “as it contains all the elements of success and failure in the real world, and the object is the same as the human race in general seems to have, for example, the accumulation of wealth.”

The game was soon a hit among Left-wing intellectuals, on college campuses including the Wharton School, Harvard and Columbia, and also among Quaker communities, some of which modified the rules and redrew the board with street names from Atlantic City. Among the players of this Quaker adaptation was an unemployed man called Charles Darrow, who later sold such a modified version to the games company Parker Brothers as his own.

Once the game’s true origins came to light, Parker Brothers bought up Magie’s patent, but then re-launched the board game simply as Monopoly, and provided the eager public with just one set of rules: those that celebrate the triumph of one over all. Worse, they marketed it along with the claim that the game’s inventor was Darrow, who they said had dreamed it up in the 1930s, sold it to Parker Brothers, and become a millionaire. It was a rags-to-riches fabrication that ironically exemplified Monopoly’s implicit values: chase wealth and crush your opponents if you want to come out on top.

So next time someone invites you to join a game of Monopoly, here’s a thought. As you set out piles for the Chance and Community Chest cards, establish a third pile for Land-Value Tax, to which every property owner must contribute each time they charge rent to a fellow player. How high should that land tax be? And how should the resulting tax receipts be distributed? Such questions will no doubt lead to fiery debate around the Monopoly board — but then that is exactly what Magie had always hoped for.

Mark Twain’s quotation is used to show …

1) how to achieve the privilege of accidentally landing.

2) the principles of a real estate agency organization.

3) one of the rules taught at modem school.

4) the main principle of the game of Monopoly.

According to the author, Elizabeth Magie would have made herself go directly to jail because …

1) the sales of the game have been doubled.

2) the values of the game have been turned upside down.

3) the influence of the game is reduced.

4) the players are encouraged greatly to buy it.

Which of the following statements about Elizabeth Magie is TRUE, according to the text?

1) She highlighted the politics of her times.

2) She had a subordinate position.

3) She was engaged in publicity of her state.

4) She advocated for women’s right.

What inspired Magie to develop the board game?

1) The ideas she found in Henry George’s book.

2) The ideas her father developed.

3) The book her father wrote.

4) The book dedicated to gender politics.

Which of the following does NOT refer to the rules of the Landlord’s game?

1) The sole winner is whoever manages to bankrupt the rest of players.

2) The winner is the player who starts out with the least money and doubles it.

3) WTien a player acquires a new property, it gives him some disadvantages.

4) Every player gains each time someone acquires a new property.

According to Magie, the dual sets of rules were created because …

1) she wanted to show how to accumulate the wealth.

2) players could create the strategies useful for real life.

3) she wanted to show advantages and disadvantages people faced in the real world.

4) players could find special approaches to property ownership.

What are the implicit values of the modem Monopoly relaunched by Parker Brothers?

1) To become a millionaire and celebrate the triumph.

2) To distribute tax receipts wisely.

3) To accumulate wealth and destroy the opponents.

4) To charge rent and contribute social development.

The first maps were drawn by explorers to help them find their way home and show people where they had been. The maps showed the shape of the land, distances between places and special features such as caves and old trees.

Nowadays, maps show the towns and villages, and the roads, railways, rivers and mountains. Symbols are used to show all the different things on a map and there is a key to explain what the symbols stand for.

Over the centuries, people explored most of the Earth and put together the map of the world we use today. Maps of the world or large areas are often either pohtical or physical. The political map shows territorial borders. The purpose of the physical map is to show features of geography such as mountains, soil type or land use including roads, railroads and buildings.

When Andrew Garter was offered the position of Senior European Sales Manager in a large, successful multinational corporation, he A21 jumped at the chance. One of the main

reasons for his immediate acceptance was the opportunity for a large amount of foreign travel. He could see himself relaxing in a cafe by the Seine after a hard day’s business, before jetting

A22 off to an important meeting the next morning in Prague. How romantic it all seemed.

And yet now, only eight months after his first day in the job, how different his emotions were. For Andrew Carter was experiencing what many international business travellers had experienced before him, and will experience for years to come, that a life A23 spent on planes and in hotels is lonely, dull and exhausting.

He longed to be back at home, and dreamt of the simple pleasures of having someone to watch television with, of being asked how his day was. As he lay on the bed in his luxurious, yet strangely soulless hotel room, he A24 dreaded the empty evening ahead of him. ‘What’s the A25 point,’ he asked himself, as he had done so many times, ‘of going out this evening?

I won’t talk to anyone. I won’t have anyone to enjoy it with. Every city’s the same when you’re alone.’ Not wanting to sit alone at a table in the hotel restaurant, he decided to have his evening meal delivered to his room by room service. Leafing through the menu, Andrew was

A26 struck by another desire — for some simple, home-cooked food. He sighed.

And then he thought the unthinkable. ‘I don’t have to A27 go on like this,’ he said out loud. ‘I’m still young. My whole life’s ahead of me. I could quit my job and do something I really enjoy. So what if I don’t make so much money? Money isn’t everything.’

It would take several years, and a number of A28 false starts, but finally Andrew Carter did leave his highly-paid position. He was scared, but for the first time in his life he was truly content.

pizzas himself!

There
is a popular opinion that all children are talented. It’s true — children are
curious and have a good _____IMAGINE_____. It helps them make ____AMAZE____
things from very routine objects like stones, leaves, or strips of fabric.
Coloured paper, watercolours and pencils stimulate their ______CREATE____
minds a lot too! However, sometimes parents may ____APPROVE___ of their
children’s artistic activities like drawing on the walls and indoor experiments
with fireworks. But _____PUNISH______ is not a good solution! Any
art activity develops children’s brains and stimulates their ability in
science. Be _____CARE_____ with your children’s natural talents. Never
stop them doing an activity but instead create an appropriate and safe
environment for it.

Early in her reign, Queen Victoria and her
husband, Prince Albert, had a plan to hold a great world-wide exhibition of
modern art and design. Sir Joseph Paxton, a botanist and landscape ___DESIGN_____,
won the competition to create the central exhibition hall. The _____BUILD____
he produced is still admired by architects today. Although at that time many
thought it was ________POSSIBLE_____ to realize such a project. In 1851,
Paxton constructed his Crystal Palace – an ____AMAZE_____ glass
and iron pavilion, over a third of a mile long, with 800,000 square feet of
floor space. The construction was an ultramodern iron frame with glass panels.
The exhibition was very _______SUCCESS____ – it drew over six million
visitors. _____UNFORTUNATE_____, it was taken apart in 1854.

Ray Kurzweil is a very popular figure in the
field of science. He is a leading computer _____SCIENCE_____ who has
made lots of predictions about the future of humanity. So far he has written
six books about artificial intelligence, and four of them have become ___NATION____
best sellers in the USA. Ray strongly believes that soon computer intelligence
will be a billion times more ___POWER_____ than the human brain.
However, lots of experts don’t believe it and say that it is absolutely ___POSSIBLE_____.
Kurzweil disagrees with them and says that we are already a human-machine
civilization. We already use high level technology to diagnose diseases,
provide ____EDUCATE____, and develop new technologies. Kurzweil thinks
that by 2030, computers will do more ___IMPRESS____ tasks. They will be
able to understand ordinary spoken language and show emotions.

‘Surfers Against Sewage’ (SAS) was founded in
1990 by water sports enthusiasts in the UK. They are an environmental ______ORGANIZE______
that tries to protect the UK’s oceans and beaches. They say that it may be
really _____RISK______ to swim in the seas, and even sunbathe on the
beaches because of the pollution. When SAS appeared, it informed people about
the problem in quite an _____USUAL______ way. They went to public events
with their surfboards and handed out leaflets. They _____QUICK____
attracted the attention of the media and people of Britain. They even managed
to put pressure on the _____GOVERN_____ to forbid dumping waste in the
sea, rivers and lakes. The campaign was indeed ______SUCCESS_____.
Officials agreed to spend 8.5 billion pounds on cleaning up Britain’s seas and
rivers.

Shepherd’s pie started
as an old English recipe. The pie gained _____POPULAR_____ in the middle
ages. During the reign of Elizabeth I, mince meat pie became a must-have food, probably,
because it was easy to cook, ____HEALTH______ and tasty. Until the 16th
century potatoes were ____MAIN______ known as pig food. But later they
were accepted as a ____BASE____ food in Europe. The Shepherd’s
pie recipe changed to include potatoes as an ingredient. And the
fame of the dish doubled. Now Shepherd’s pie is
considered to be a ____TRADITION_____ British food but similar recipes
can be found in other countries, although they may have different names. In
Canada, for example, a ____WAIT____ in a restaurant would present it to
tourists as Chinese pie.

St Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland. St
Patrick is _____FAME_____ for his heroic deeds. People gladly believe in
______AMAZE____ tales about St Patrick and don’t look for any historical
evidence to prove them. And the facts often _____AGREE______ with the
tales. For example, an old legend says that St Patrick drove all the snakes out
of Ireland. This myth is actually untrue. At the time snakes appeared on the
planet, Ireland was _____COMPLETE_____ covered by water. Now it is an
island which means it is surrounded by water. The water makes it ____POSSIBLE____
for snakes to get to the island. The same _____SITUATE____ is true for
New Zealand, Greenland, and many other islands.

The festival of Halloween has its roots in
Celtic traditions.
Over 2,000 years ago the Celts in Britain had a special holiday in late October
to mark the _____BEGIN_____ of winter. Another autumn _____CELEBRATE____
was connected with the passing of the dead. These two events later became
Halloween. On Halloween children often dress up as ghosts, witches and monsters
and go around people’s houses, asking for sweets. In most cases the ghosts and
witches are not frightening at all, they are even _____FUN______! But
remember that if the children don’t get the sweets, they may play some ____PLEASANT_____
joke, for example splash some water on you. Pumpkins also ______SYMBOL_____
Halloween. People ____USUAL____ make lanterns from them.

There are lots of products that help us fight
bad moods and depression. If you feel down and ____SLEEP____, just get a
bar of dark chocolate from the fridge. Chocolate will improve your mood and
you’ll feel ______CHEER_____ and happy again. This ____INFORM____
is often used in chocolate adverts. Unfortunately, we can’t use this method too
often. The positive effect does not last long. Meanwhile chocolate is not _____HARM_____
food. It contains fat and sugar which can make you overweight. Some people may
also be allergic to chocolate and it can affect their _____APPEAR______,
causing skin problems. The alternative and _____ABSOLUTE___ safe method
to fight depression is doing sport. It can be recommended to
everyone!

It’s not at all surprising that weather is a
favourite topic for many people around the world. It affects where we choose to
live, what we wear, our moods, and perhaps even our _____NATION____
character. A _____SUN_____ day can blow away the deepest depression. And
a gloomy rainy day can make you feel lonely and ____HAPPY____. ‘I’m
feeling a bit under the weather’ is a common complaint in Britain, _____ESPECIAL_____
on Monday mornings. The weather can really be ____RESPONSE___ for
moods and scientists have proved this fact. There is a ____CONNECT____ between
our mood and the weather we are having. But remember that good weather will
have good effects on your mood only if you spend more than 30 minutes outdoors
a day.

Scientists have found that there is a direct
_____CONNECT____ between sunshine and our good mood. They noticed that
people are kinder and more ____HELP____ and easy-going when the sun is
out. Sunlight ____DEFINITE____ improves negative moods and makes us feel
less tired and more energetic. On the other hand, very hot weather may cause
strong _____COMFORT____. As a result, we may feel depressed, irritated
and even aggressive. On ______RAIN______ days people say they’re less
satisfied with their lives. But whatever the weather is, it’s important to
spend enough time outdoors. Fresh air and sports can make any day feel _____FANTASY____!

People in Britain often talk about climate and
weather. They usually complain about their ____CHANGE____ weather.
However, there are parts of the world where extreme weather causes real dangers
to the _____POPULATE____. Sandstorms, tornadoes and floods ____REGULAR____
cause massive destruction. Lots of people become ____HOME____. To
prevent this destruction, it’s important to forecast disasters in advance.
Japan is the world ____LEAD______ in using new technology for this
purpose. The Japanese have also worked out an _____EFFECT_____ system of
informing people: phone companies automatically notify their customers about
emergencies and disasters. These warnings are very efficient,
and free of charge.

In 2005 the rock group The Rolling
Stones released an album called ‘A Bigger Bang’. Many critics chose
it as their favourite. This isn’t very ____SURPRISE___, but just think,
it’s their 25th album, and the Rolling Stones have been on the stage for more
than 40 years! The lead ____SING____, Mick Jagger, the guitarist Keith
Richards and the other musicians are over 60! And they are not losing their ___POPULAR____,
even nowadays. However, they are still much more ____FAME____ for the
songs they made in the 1960s and 70s. But, you know what? Young people _____REGULAR____
listen to the Rolling Stones with their fathers and granddads. Isn’t that_____IMPRESS____?
In all aspects, theirs has been a remarkable career.

They say that pop music is created by and for
young people. It often happens this way. A young ____SING_____ makes one
or two good records at the start of their career. Every year, lots of new stars
become ____FAME____ but for a short time. And just a year or two later
they either ____APPEAR___ or make less interesting records. It is
difficult to find musicians who could make great records for a long time. Lots
of popular groups from the 1970s, for example, are still better known for the
songs they made in their ____SUCCESS____ past than for their more recent
recordings. Some performers leave the stage but don’t lose their ____POPULAR____.
They continue to appear ___REGULAR___ on TV as presenters, or in chat
and reality shows.

In Moscow, there are approximately 35,000 dogs
living on the streets. Some of these ____HOME____ animals were born
there. Others are just _____LUCKY____ pets that have been abandoned by
their owners. For many dogs the city may be a ____DANGER___ place to live
in. However, scientists were surprised to find out how ____EASY____ some
animals can adapt to urban life. Some dogs have even learnt to use the city’s
metro system! We still don’t know how the dogs find out when to get off the
train. One ___SUGGEST___ is that they use their excellent sense of smell
to recognise the scents of their favourite destinations. Another idea is that
they are able to remember the design of ___DIFFER___ stations and find
the station they need.

Most graffiti street artists are anonymous.
However there are some artists who have become globally ___FAME___. Like
the twin brothers from Brazil who call themselves Os Gemeos. They paint
everything from small images to huge, ___COLOUR___ pictures of people on
buildings. Another celebrity among graffiti artists is Blek le Rat from Paris.
He paints pictures of ___HOME___ people. In this way he hopes to
encourage residents to think ____SERIOUS___ about the problems of these
people. Another well-known artist is Faith 47 from Cape Town. She paints big
bright pictures of people and animals. The works of this ___PAINT____
can be found on pavements, empty factory buildings, and abandoned cars. It is
____POSSIBLE____ to predict how street art will develop in the future
but we can be sure that it is here to stay!

Kelly’s family loved to watch football
together. Sometimes they watched college games, but normally they watched ____PROFESSION_____
teams play. This evening was special. Two teams were playing in the final match
of the ___CHAMPION____. Kelly’s favourite team had actually got to the
final this year, which ____RARE_____ happened. «They’re going to
win for sure! It will be ___FAIR_____ if they lose!» Kelly thought.
Watching the football game needed the presence of the whole family and lots of
tasty food. So Kelly’s mum had made barbecue meatballs. Uncle Jolyon had
brought a ____SPICE___ cheese sauce and chips. Aunt Katie brought some
cakes. When the game started, everyone cheered. It seemed to Kelly that
every ____PLAY_____ of her team was doing their best to win-win-win! And
they did!

The Nobel Prize is a very prestigious award.
Alfred Nobel, a successful businessman and the _____INVENT_____ of
explosives, established prizes for achievements in science, literature and
economics. Another award, the Oscar, is ____PROBABLE____ the most famous
prize in the film industry. The ceremony is an ____IMPRESS____ event
with lots of film stars. There are lots of musical awards – Grammies, Brits,
and the MTV awards for music, the list is ____END_____. In Britain, a
writer who wins the Booker prize can expect to see their novel at the top of
the bestseller lists and compete with ‘The Da Vinci Code’ for _____POPULAR____.
The Turner Prize is an award for British contemporary artists, and each year it
causes heated discussions. Artists get lots of money for their ____USUAL____
and sometimes even strange works.

Ecotourism is getting more and more popular. It
offers two things at once: ____EDUCATE____ and entertainment. Most
people agree that ecotourism is the most _____HARM_____ branch of
tourism. It makes profit without destroying ______NATURE_____ resources.
When tourists choose eco trips, they stay in local houses with local people,
not in _____EXPENSE_____ hotels. They travel on foot, by boat, bicycle
or elephant to avoid pollution. However, such trips are not at all cheap.
This is ____PROBABLE____ the only disadvantage. But you can apply the
principles of ecotourism every time you go on a normal holiday. You should
remember that you’re only a ____VISIT_____ and be as careful as
possible.

Ireland is the country of myths and legends.
Even the local people are not sure which of them were based on facts and which
are the product of someone’s ____CREATE____ imagination. Leprechauns are
____PROBABLE____ the most famous characters from Irish mythology. They
are depicted as old bearded men. Their ____RESPONSIBLE____ is to guard
the treasure of the fairies. Unfortunately, rainbows always point to the _____LOCATE____
of the treasure and the Leprechaun must rehide it. And there are plenty of
rainbows in Ireland! Leprechauns are always busy. They are always very ____CARE____
and try to be invisible to people. But if you manage to catch some ____LUCKY___
Leprechaun, he must either give you his treasure or grant you three
wishes.

It’s
obvious that language skills are essential for everyone today. Foreign
languages are very _____USE_______ not only for travelling, but also for
studying and building a career. There are lots of ___DIFFER_____ ways to
learn a new language. However, everyone agrees that learning languages is
____POSSIBLE____ without dictionaries. The main job of any dictionary is
to explain what words mean. This can be done via ____TRANSLATE_____ or
the unknown word can be explained in other words. It’s also good if the
dictionary contains some examples of how the word is used – it helps to
understand the ____MEAN_____ much better. If you are a busy _____LEARN_______,
you probably prefer online dictionaries to paper ones. Online dictionaries are
very convenient to use if you have Internet access.

My
friend, Mary, is an extraordinary girl. She has always tried new things –
new sports and new hobbies. She says life should be _____INTEREST_______
and it should change all the time. Now she has a new idea – she wants to
be a firefighter. You may say that it is not a job for girls, but Mary will ___AGREE_____
with this. In her opinion, putting out fires is a ____DANGER_____ job
but women are able to do it too. She has enrolled in a special training school
where they learn skills and study firefighting ____EQUIP_____. The
teenagers in the camp also learn how to work as a team, which is a very ___USE_____
skill wherever you work. And Mary is sure her team will be effective in any
___SITUATE_____.

There
is a belief that some jobs suit men better than women and some other jobs are
more appropriate for women than for men. Nowadays, women more and more often
take jobs that ______TRADITIONAL________ were done by men. A lot of
women do ___DANGER_____ and difficult jobs, becoming astronauts, pilots,
and firefighters. No one is surprised when a girl wants to be a police officer
or a train _____DRIVE____. In sports you can see a similar
____SITUATE____. Girls play football, ice hockey, go boxing and do other sports
that seem to be ______USUAL_________ for women. But the girls say that
it is ____EXCITE_____ and they cannot see any reason why they should not
go into the sport they like.

Mark
is an old friend of mine. I’m very proud of our friendship because Mark is a
very ____INTEREST_____ person. He is very talented and ____CREATE_____.
He can play the piano and the violin and the guitar but he is not a
professional ____MUSIC_____. He plays only for his family and friends. We have
encouraged Mark to try singing too, but he refuses and says he has an ___PLEASANT_____
voice. That is certainly not true – he has a nice voice, though he cannot
sing very ______LOUD_________. Now we are arranging a school band and I
want to ask Mark to join it. I think if he starts performing in public, he’ll
become a more confident and more ____SUCCESS____ person.

Russia
is a large country with great diversity in flora and fauna. There are several
large ____NATION_________ parks in Russia. A lot of different animals
live there. Wolves are probably the best known, and are very well studied
animals, so we have enough ______INFORM________ about their diet and
behaviour. The wolf is a good ______HUNT_________. They usually hunt
wild animals like deer and hares, but sometimes they can attack sheep, goats,
and cows. The wolf tries to avoid people and only goes into villages when he is
_______REAL______ hungry. In some ______RUSSIA________ tales, the
wolf is often represented as a clever animal that helps the main character,
Ivan. The wolf is usually direct and _____CREATE________ and helps Ivan
to cope with many difficult problems.

Learning
languages is important nowadays. It is interesting and ___USE____.
Language skills help people to travel, study, and establish ___PROFESSION____
links with colleagues from other countries. Some people say that learning
languages is easy but others strongly ___AGREE____. They say that
learning languages takes a lot of time and they are not happy with their
progress anyway. Meanwhile, there are some strategies that can make you a
successful language _____LEARN____ and save your time. The first idea is
watching films in the original. If the films are ____INTEREST____,
learning is just fun, not hard work. Online and live ___COMMUNICATE____
with people in the language you are learning also helps a lot.

I’m
not a child but I still like cartoons and animated films. ___RECENT____,
I enrolled in an animation course in our university. The ____TEACH_____
of the course explained to us how animated films are made. Basically, animation
is just a series of pictures with a character. Each picture is a little ____DIFFER_______.
When you show the pictures really fast, it looks like they are moving. Some
people say animation is not a serious thing. I strongly ___AGREE_____.
Animated films may be ___FUN_____ but clever and useful to learn new
skills. I believe they can be used in many spheres, and most importantly of all
in ___EDUCATE_____.

Not
everyone likes street art. ____USUAL________ nobody asks owners’ permission
before drawing graffiti on their houses. Sometimes the drawings may be ___INTEREST_____
and nice but sometimes messy and ugly. What is graffiti – a form of art
or vandalism? It depends on the drawing, I think. A friend of mine, John, is a
street __ART____. He says that street art is a form of ____COMMUNICATE____.
A person can tell you nice or rude things, can’t he? As for John, he is a
really nice and ___CREATE_____ person. He enjoys drawing _____VARY_______
characters from animated films. When my neighbours saw his drawings, they asked
him to paint some pictures on the wall of their house. Just to make
it look brighter and more positive.

What
is the most eco-friendly transport? I believe it’s the bicycle. There are a lot
of bicycles on the streets of our town and that is probably why it looks so
green and ____BEAUTY___. There are cycle lanes all over the town so
using your bike to get to school or to the office is safe and convenient. ___FORTUNATELY____,
some people still prefer driving cars even for short distances. They make the
environment less _____HEALTH_____. As for me, I enjoy riding my bike
very much and all my friends say that I’m a good ____RIDE____. Next
month I’m going to take part in a regional cycling _____COMPETE_____ and
I hope to win it. I don’t think I will stop riding my bicycle till I’m ____REAL____
old.

Koalas
are cute animals. _____FORTUNATELY_______, it causes them lots of
problems. There are people who want to keep the cute exotic animal as a pet
which may put the koala in a really ____DANGER_____ situation. The
problem is that the koala’s diet is very specific. To stay ______HEALTH______
they should only eat eucalyptus leaves. The leaves need to be young and fresh,
which means a person who keeps a koala should also have a lot of eucalyptus
trees. Andrew Page, a ___SCIENCE_______ who has been studying koalas for
years, says that it’s a bad idea to keep this animal as a pet. According to
him, people who try to do it usually have very little _____INFORM________
about koala’s lifestyle. And their ignorance can often cost the ___BEAUTY______
animal its life.

Functions of computers
Computer is one of the inventions of the 20th century that changed the world greatly. The first computers of the 1940th were enormous. But now they are almost in every family and in every office building. Some machines do only one job, some of them are multifunctional, but no device is as multifunctional as computer. The parts of the computer (or its hardware) remain the same, you change only the program (software) and your computer immediately learns to do various things. A browser program is designed to look at pages on the Internet (you can also say «to browse», this accounts for the word «browser»). A word processor program lets you print texts and then change styles of fonts and sizes of pages. A database program is used for searching and sorting records. Such programs are used at shops, libraries, hospitals, accountant offices and many other places. They make work with great amounts of data much quicker. Computers are found everywhere and used in every sphere of life. At a plant one can make a computer model of a car or plane and check its resistance to stress. Such calculations without a computer could have taken several months. Computer is also used at school: children watch presentations, films and web pages. This help them to study effectively. Computers also have some disadvantages. there is a famous joke that computers are designed to solve problems but half of the time they are the problem. As computer is a complicated device, one small breakage may stop its work. Moreover, the equipment is soon out of date. Besides, there is a problem of compatibility. First of all, there are hardware devices which cant work with the old operating system, such as a processor, a hard disk drive, a video card, etc. Then, there are programs which need more resources than computer actually has. Thirdly, computers become more and more complicated, and much effort is required to learn how to work with them. Fourthly, computer viruses cause a lot of trouble – they can spoil, remove or steal computer data, and every user knows it well from his personal experience. And on top of all, computer is a multifunctional device, as we already know, so it can be used both to do work and to entertain oneself. Children often fall prey to computer and Internet: they play computer games, spend their free time chatting with friends on the Internet and doing practically nothing. This aspect cant be denied. To crown it all, computer is a useful device like many others, designed to help people. But its our own free will that lets us use it in order not to waste time but to get best results
