1. When I hear the word «media» I imagen different newspapers, magazines, television and journalists.
2. Media is the «forth power» is said among people. Its like a special device with a help of which we know about the world news.
3. Of course it has TOO much power. Everything we know we get from media. I think, people can even be zombied by TV. Every day we hear the news about the war in Ukrain, for example. And many young men from our country who see on TV just one side of the medal, leave their families and go to fight for the country they have never been in. May be its too rude example, but nevertheles…
4. Its very difficult question. The bad thing is that our media policy is aimed at showing that our government, our president are the best ever. They show that all people in Kazakhstan are satisfied with the political programm of the country, that salaries, pension payments grow annualy. They dont swow all the truth. And good thing is…oh, I cant find an answer.
5. It can be understood from my previous answer. No. I dont beleive the media. Everybody lie.
6. Как отличается СМИ сегодня от СМИ 30 лет назад. Затрудняюсь ответить. Можете написать, я Вам переведу.
1. No, I wouldnt like. Its, of course, an interesting work, but, I think, too nervous and even dangerous.

Imagine living in a sweet little country house called ‘Rose Cottage’ or a huge Tudor1-style house called ‘Woodlands’. Sounds nice, doesn’t it? Not all British
people are 1)……(luck) enough to live in houses as nice as these, but they do live in a wide range of houses that can be newly-built or up to 500 years old.
Detached & Semi-detached Houses
A lot of British people live in detached or semidetached properties. A detached house is not joined to another. A semi-detached is joined on one side to another house. They are brick houses built in 2)……. (vary) styles. They are made of either red or brown brick. Some of the houses 3)……. (build) in Victorian times between 1837 and 1901 were large villas. The exteriors are like works of art with steep slate roofs, stained glass panels in doors and windows, iron railings, tall chimney pots and large bay windows2. They also had basements and attics. This type of house is often found in the suburbs, on the outskirts of a town or city or in villages.
Terraced Houses
Most people who live in or near town centres live in terraced houses. Most terraced houses were built to house people who came to towns and cities to work in the factories and mills during the 4)……..(Industry) Revolution3. Rows of houses were built back-to-back and they were joined together to save space. Each row of houses is a terrace and they only have two rooms downstairs and two rooms upstairs.
Flats & Council Houses
In inner-city areas, you can often find huge tower blocks of flats most of which were built during the 1950s and 60s. Some of these have been renovated and have 5)……..(recent) become popular with wealthy young 6)………(profession).

What exactly is a shanty town?
A shanty town (or slum) is an overcrowded community of rough huts or poor quality houses which have 1)…….. or no access to basic services like clean water and electricity. Shanty towns are usually located on the outskirts of pities,- or on dangerous or worthless land that no one else wants. Since shanty towns are illegal, governments don’t have to provide the people who live in them with medical care, education, or other basic services and rights.
Why do they develop?
Every day, approximately 180,000 people around the world move from the countryside into cities. Some move to escape poverty or conflict, others are simply attracted by the prospect of a better life. Unfortunately, in many parts of the developing world, governments have not 2)……plans GeoFactfiie: Urbanisation in the Developing World to cope with the vast numbers of people arriving in their cities each year. In particular, they have failed to provide decent and affordable housing. As a result, many end 3)………living in terrible conditions: shanty towns.
What is life like in a shanty town?
Unemployment and poverty levels are high in shanty towns. Malnutrition and child labour are common. Since shanty towns are overcrowded and usually without rubbish collections, clean water or sanitation facilities (in the Kibera slum in Nairobi, for example, 40,000 people share just 10 toilets), they are polluted, filthy environments where disease 4)……..quickly. Also, the high level of poverty often leads to organised crime and violence. However, these communities are full of life and residents have a 5)……community spirit.
Is anything being done?
International agencies are working with governments of developing countries, and also residents themselves, to improve the situation. For example, charities sometimes offer residents loans so that they can set up businesses and 6)………a decent living. In Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the authorities have now officially accepted their country’s shanty towns as permanent and are providing them with electricity, water and other amenities. But slum dwellers aren’t just waiting for others to solve their problems! In Thailand, slum communities have worked together to resolve arguments over land and in some 7)…… have gained legal ownership.

1 Smoke detectors in homes have saved countless lives. They sense the presence of smoke in the house and alert the occupants by making a loud beeping noise, giving them time to escape. In order to be kept in good working condition, they should be tested at least once a month and cleaned once a year.
2 One of the attractions of living in the country is a blazing log fire. However, open fires are one of the most inefficient forms of heating, since most of the heat disappears up the chimney. They also produce lots of smoke which, of course, pollutes the environment. From both a financial and environmental point of view, it is better to use other methods of heating.
3 Most people strive to buy a house with a garden but what happens if the budget just doesn’t allow it? Well, those of you who live in an apartment can bring a bit of nature inside by placing some houseplants around your living space. All they need is a little care and attention! Be sure to check, for example, how often they need watering and what kind of conditions they prefer, such as bright or shady, warm or cool.
4 Plans were announced today to build sixteen new homes in Brighton using fifteen thousand old car tyres. The developers claim that they will be so energy efficient that residents will have no utility bills at all! They will collect their own water and be powered by solar panels and wind turbines. The homes offer a way of tackling two of Britain’s biggest environmental concerns — the growing mountain of discarded tyres and the high levels of carbon emissions from housing.
5 ln a few years we might be living in ‘smart’ houses. A smart house is a house where the appliances have a computer fitted inside them, so that they can ‘communicate’ with each other. For example, groceries are ordered when your fridge sees that you are running low on essentials and when you enter your home, temperature, lighting and music are activated according to your personal preferences.
6 Accidents in the home account for about forty per cent of all accidents and a third of all accidents treated at hospital. The most dangerous area of the home is the living room, followed by the garden, kitchen, stairs, bedroom and bathroom. The main factor is age, with young children having the greatest number of accidents. Falls are by far the greatest cause of fatal home accidents, causing more than two thousand deaths in Britain each year.
7 There’s nothing more discouraging than spending hours at the weekend cleaning and organising your home, only to find it in a total mess again by Wednesday! So, why not set aside fifteen minutes per day for maintaining your living space in order to minimise clutter as the week goes on? Good ideas include assigning one small, quick job to each member of the household each day, and putting something back where it belongs every time you leave a room.

What do you think of when you hear the word slum? Do you imagine a decrepit squalor overflowing with people broken down by circumstances and wallowing in self-pity?
If you’re like me, the first image that takes root in your mind is a far cry from hustle or industriousness. It almost certainly is not one of sustainability or enterprise. Yet these are precisely the terms I would use to describe my recent visit to Dharavi, India, one of the world’s most notorious slums.
Once a marshy outpost, housing city outcasts on the edge of Mumbai, Dharavi has evolved into a thriving entrepreneurial zone boasting a strong sense of community and low crime rates.
In fact, if raggedy garments were replaced with suits, sweat with shiny briefcases, and old decrepit buildings with gleaming skyscrapers, I might have confused this ambitious buzz for a morning on Wall Street in a bullish market.
Throughout the tour, I was plagued by a sense of inferiority. No matter where I stood or walked, I found myself in the way of progress. Men wheeling carts overflowing with various materials – bricks or recycled plastic — whizzed by as if our group of tourists were invisible. I became an annoying pest impeding operational efficiency. This was perhaps the only time during my four months in India where I could walk for hours — or even five minutes — and not encounter a plea for money.
A maze of matchbox buildings, Dharavi is home to thousands of micro-industries collectively generating over $650 million annually. Dharavi’s enterprise is best known for its critical role in waste management. It is said that if it wasn’t for Dharavi, India’s most populous city would sink under the weight of its own rubbish. A panoramic view from atop any high-rise rooftop might be mistaken for the most neatly-organized landfill. In the morning, each rooftop is loaded with heaps of recyclable garbage, separated by material to match the operation housed below.
Besides serving as the garbage disposal for Mumbai’s 21 million citizens and surrounding sprawls, Dharavi houses 15,000 single-room factories — producing a diversity of finished products spanning clothing, leather belts and wallets, glue, pipes, soap, candles, bricks, pottery, and baked goods.
I was conflicted before visiting Dharavi. As I prepared for my visit, I became part of an ongoing debate about the real impact of “slum tourism.” Is it ethically sound to support a tour company that makes millions of dollars by unveiling the lives of those who live on $2 a day? I was loath to join the swaths of voyeur tourists, turning hardship into photographs.
But I was assured that trips with Reality Tours & Travel are different. I finally concluded that I could not accurately assess the concept of “slum tourism” until I observed it up close, first-hand.
My introduction to Dharavi came from Bipin Kumar, a sharp, well-spoken guide boasting an endless depth of knowledge about not only life in the slum, but across India and beyond. Kumar presented Dharavi not as a home to the downtrodden, but as desirable real estate available only to the most fortunate of workers.
Because it is so densely packed, Dharavi’s population is essentially capped and is strictly, if not formally, regulated. Listening to him speak of rapidly escalating rent prices and desperate demand for a floor to sleep on, Kumar gave me the impression that newcomers to Dharavi face more formidable competition breaking into a few feet of living space than do studio-seekers in TriplePundit’s home in San Francisco.
It was about halfway through the tour when my assumptions of Kumar’s affluent, well-educated background were dashed. He touched lightly upon his childhood, which took place in a nearby slum in the Kurla area of Mumbai. He attended school in the slum and after graduating from 12th standard, India’s equivalent to the completion of high school, took a Photoshop course to learn graphic design. After working in design and sales, he spotted an ad for a position with Reality Tours in the local newspaper and immediately connected with the mission and model.
As a social enterprise prioritizing impact over profit, Reality Tours allocates 80 percent of post-tax profits to fund its own education-focused NGO, which was established to “equip local residents with the tools they need to achieve their potential and to break free from the cycle of poverty.”
Reality Gives opened a school in Dharavi, training 15 local women who have taught English, computer proficiency and soft skills to 400 students. Additionally, Reality Gives runs sports programs that engage over 130 children.
Despite the obvious reality, somehow Dharavi is often portrayed as a squalid slum and treated as such. Perhaps the view all depends on the tourist. Even one woman in our tour spoke with pity about the poor slum-dwellers while the rest of the group marveled at the impressive hustle and ingenuity around us.
Through its growing network of tours throughout India, Reality Tours teaches us a valuable lesson by revealing the beauty of what can exist in a part of the world neglected by humanity or overlooked by assumption. The question is whether we will choose to open our eyes to see its reality.

Speaker 1
I think that the biggest environmental problem is pollution. People are responsible for it. We all drive car and their exhaust fumes pollute the air we breathe. But, I believe that factories are the main problem. They emit their waste into the air and the water. Often, these waste products and chemicals are harmful and cause the biggest problems.
Оратор 1
Я думаю, что самая большая экологическая проблема — это загрязнение. Люди несут за это ответственность. Мы все ездим на машинах, и выхлопные газы загрязняют воздух, которым мы дышим. Но я считаю, что заводы — это главная проблема. Они выбрасывают свои отходы в воздух и воду. Часто эти отходы и химические вещества вредны и вызывают самые большие проблемы.

I’ve started going small jobs in my community to help the environment. A group of us went to pick up rubbish last Saturday in the park. It was great. Lots of people came and it only took an hour! Also, the local school is setting up recycling bins so that everyone can help reduce waste. Sure there are lots of larger environmental problems around the world, but at least things around here are improving.
Оратор 2
Я начал заниматься мелкой работой в своём сообществе, чтобы помочь окружающей среде. В прошлую субботу мы отправились в парк собирать мусор. Это было здорово. Пришло много людей, и это заняло всего час! Кроме того, местная школа устанавливает мусорные баки, чтобы каждый мог помочь сократить количество отходов. Конечно, во всём мире есть много больших экологических проблем, но, по крайней мере, здесь всё улучшается.
Speaker 3
My community is always organizing ‘save the world’ events. I want to participate, but I work five days a week and have two children. By the time the weekend comes, I’m exhausted and I have no energy to help with environmental events. I try to recycle, which is good, and if I wasn’t so busy I would help more.
Оратор 3
Моё сообщество всегда организует мероприятия «Спаси мир». Я хочу участвовать, но работаю пять дней в неделю и у меня двое детей. К тому времени, как наступают выходные, я выматываюсь, и у меня нет сил помогать с экологическими мероприятиями. Я стараюсь перерабатывать, и это хорошо, и если бы я не был так занят, я бы помогал больше.
Speaker 4
Many people still don’t care enough about the environment. People say that they have no time or it’s not their responsibility. But really, it’s everyone’s responsibility. It doesn’t take long to collect rubbish and put it in recycle bin or switch the lights off when you leave a room. People forget that all these small things help. If everyone does their part, we might reduce pollution and help the environment.
Оратор 4
Многие люди всё ещё недостаточно заботятся об окружающей среде. Люди говорят, что у них нет времени или это не их обязанность. Но на самом деле это ответственность каждого. Это не займёт много времени, чтобы собрать мусор и положить его в корзину или выключить свет, когда вы выходите из комнаты. Люди забывают, что все эти мелочи помогают. Если каждый внесёт свой вклад, мы сможем уменьшить загрязнение и помочь окружающей среде.
Speaker 5
I agree that the environment is very important but there aren’t many ways to help without having to pay for it. Charities and other environmental organisations are always asking for donations. I would like to help more but I can’t afford to donate money to help these organisations and other good causes.
Оратор 5
Я согласен, что окружающая среда очень важна, но есть не так много способов помочь, не платя за это. Благотворительные организации и другие экологические организации всегда просят пожертвования. Я хотел бы помочь больше, но я не могу позволить себе пожертвовать деньги на помощь этим организациям и другим добрым делам.
