And what does computer mean for you письмо

Every day i have fights with my mother.

She thinks i’m getting dependent on computer and doesn’t want to admit that there are a lot of other ways to use a computer, not just for games.

And what does computer mean for you?

Do you find much time to play games (what kind of them)?

Does it help you much in your studies.

Thank you for your letter.

I was glad to receive it.

You ask me to tell you about my attitude to computers.

Well, I usually spend about 2 hours surfing the Internet every day.

So it really helps me very much.

You see, I don’t play computer games because I’m not interested in them.

I’m happy that my parents understand me and I don’t argue with them about the computer.

I hope you’ll be able to persuade your mother.

I have to go now as I promised my mum to do the shopping.

Please write back soon.

Best wishes, Ваше имя.

Reading I

Computers in our lives

ü Isaac Asimov, a science fiction writer, once said, «I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them.» These days, most people cannot work without a computer. However, is it true that the use of computers is always beneficial?

ü Without doubt, there are several advantages to using computers at work. First of all, they help people to work faster. For example, word- processing is much faster than writing by hand and can help you avoid spelling and grammar mistakes. Moreover, employees can organise their work better with a computer. They can save their work and organise their files into folders so that they can find what they need easily.

ü However, using computers at work also has some disadvantages. One disadvantage is that it is not safe to store all your work on a computer. Documents can get lost if the computer crashes or breaks down. Also, people are losing their jobs as computers replace people at work.

ü To sum up, using computers can be both advantages and disadvantages. Despite the problems, however, I believe that they are an important tool at work and we should try to make the best of them.

A) Read the dialogue in pairs.

Steve:Ah!

Mark:What’s wrong, Steve?

Steve: This computer is driving me crazy!

Mark: Well, maybe I can help you. There isn’t much I don’t know about computers!

Mark: Right. What seems to be the problem?

Steve: Well, I’ve finally finished this document, but I just can’t get it to print.

Mark: I bet you didn’t switch the printer on, didyou?

Steve: Of course I did! I’m not that stupid!

Mark: OK, OK, I was only asking. Right then, let’s see. If you just click on the ‘start’ icon, go into the ‘printers’ folder, check the settings. oops!

Steve: What?

Mark: Well the monitor’s gone all funny.

Steve: Mark! Don’t tell me it’s crashed! That report took me all morning to write!

Mark: Don’t worry. We’ll restart it. You saved the document, didn’t you?

Mark: Oh, Steve! You should save your work every few minutes!

Steve: Well, there’s no point saying that now, is there?

Reading III

Before you read.

Look through people’s opinions about mobile phones. Which ones are advantages andhich ones are disadvantages? Do you agree with them? Add some more.

ü Useful in the emergencies

ü You are never alone

ü People know where you are

ü Public phones are terrible

ü They can easily break

British phone users want simpler phones

New phones are more difficult to use and have too many applications that a lot of us are not interested in. Many users are only interested in texting and making calls. Functions like taking photos and listening to music are popular but not essential. Most of us are more interested in good sound quality, good coverage and, most importantly, checking the time!

However, there’s the other extreme – the minority that loves these new applications. Did you know that now you can get a device that allows you to identify birdsong, another that tunes a musical instrument and even one that repels mosquitoes (the phone produces a noise that scares them away!) Can you believe it?

Do you think mobile phone users in our country think the same?

And what applications does your mobile have? Do you use all of them?

Task 13.This is part of a letter you have received from your English pen-friend.

. We are doing a project at school on how computers are changing people’s lives. Please could you tell me how computers are changing things and how people feel about it? Have you got a computer at home? What do you use it for?

As for me, I’m going on holiday with my parents next weekend.

Write back to your pen-friend.

 answer his/her questions about computers

 ask 3 questions about his holiday

Fedoskinskaya Street

Moscow

Hi! How is it going? I hope you’re well. Thanks for your last letter. It was great to hear from you!

I’ll try to answer your questions. No doubt computers have made our lives easier and more exciting. We needn’t go to libraries as we can find almost all information on the Net. Moreover, computers help us to relax although some people feel that they are rather addictive. I’m happy that I’ve got a computer. It helps me with my projects and I also use educational programmes. Of course I do play computer games but not very often.

Anyway, write back soon and tell me about your holiday. Did you enjoy it? What interesting places did you

visit? Did you make any new friends?

I’d better go now as I have to feed my kitten.

Task 14.You have received a letter from your English-speaking pen-friend Paul who writes

. At school we are doing projects on sports popular in different countries. Could you tell me about two kinds of sports that are popular with Russian teenagers? Why are they popular? Do you have enough time for sports?

Write a letter to Paul.

 answer all his questions

 ask 3 questions about his school drama club

Kirova Street

Novosibirsk

Thanks for your letter. I’m really glad you like your new school!

I guess I should start by telling you about sports in Russia.

I believe the most popular sport with boys is football because it’s a very exciting game. Girls enjoy gymnastics as it helps them to keep fit. As for me, I’m crazy about football, too. I wish I could play every day but I don’t have enough time (unfortunately!).

Well, I think joining a drama club is a good idea. One day you may become a famous actor. Who knows?

Write back and tell me about your club. How many pupils are there? What plays are you going to put on? Are you given any costumes?

Anyway, I’d better go now as I’ve got loads of homework to do. Keep in touch!

Task 15.This is part of a letter from your English-speaking pen-friend.

. By the way, we are doing a project at college on the fashion industry in different countries. It would be nice if you could tell me what clothes are popular with teenagers in Russia. Do you have any special fashion for teens?

What kind of clothes do you prefer?

Write back soon.

Write back to Jessica.

 answer her questions

 ask 3 questions about her tastes in clothes

Borodina Street

Krasnodar

Hi! I was so happy to get your letter! It was great to hear your news.

In your letter you asked me about popular teenage clothes in Russia. Well, I guess today’s teenagers have a

new tag line, ‘I’ve just got to be me.’ Wearing baggy jeans and T-shirts is still important but teens like to add their own unique pieces of clothing. As for me, I enjoy a popular layered style and I usually wear denim jeans, button up shirts and open cardigans as they’re very comfortable.

Anyway, write back and tell me about your tastes in clothes. What kind of clothes do you prefer? Do you follow any fashion trends? Do you enjoy wearing a school uniform?

Well, I’d better go now as I have to cook dinner. Take care and keep in touch!

Task 16.This is part of a letter from your English pen-friend.

. I’m going to visit Russia in July. I’ve read a lot about Moscow but I’m especially interested in its history. What historical sites and museums would you recommend me to visit? Is museum entrance fee high in Moscow? Are

there any weekdays when the entrance is free for students? Do they allow taking pictures inside?

Well, I must finish now because I ’ve got an exam tomorrow. Write back soon and tell me all your news.

Write back to John.

 answer his questions

 ask 3 questions about his exams and his journey to Russia

Hi! How’s it going? Thanks for your letter. I hope you did well at your exam. Was it difficult?

Well, I’m really glad you’re going to visit Russia. There are lots of historical sites and museums in Moscow.

You should by all means visit the Kremlin, the State Historical Museum and the Borodino Panorama Museum.

Unfortunately, there is no free admission for students; however, the entrance fees aren’t very high. Taking pictures is usually allowed although sometimes you’ll have to pay a small fee.

Anyway, write back and tell me all your travel details. Would you like me to meet you at the airport? How

long are you going to stay in Moscow? What other cities are you planning to visit?

I’ve got to go now because Mum’s calling me to dinner. Take care!

I. This November a hundred million butterflies will drop from the sky over Mexico, like autumn leaves. But for how long? Genetically modified maize could mean extinction for this beautiful butterfly. Rafael Ruiz reports.
II. In November, millions of Monarchs fall like bright, golden rain onto the forests in the mountains of central Mexico. In the silence of these mountains you can hear a strange flapping of wings, as the Monarchs arrive at their destinations. 1) ______________________________
III. Before reaching their journey’s end they have faced strong winds, rain and snowstorms and they do not all manage to reach their destination. When the winters are really bad, perhaps 70 per cent of them will not survive. Their long journey to Mexico is thought to be one of the most amazing events in the whole of the American continent. When they get there they will stay until the beginning of April, when their internal calendar tells them that it is time to go back. 2)__________________________________.
IV. These delicate creatures now face danger of another kind – from scientific progress.
3) ____________________________. Laboratory experiments have shown that half of the butterflies which feed on the leaves of genetically modified maize die within 48 hours. Not all experts agree that this variety of maize is responsible for the threat to the Monarchs. In spite of these doubts, the European Union has refused to approve new crops of genetically modified maize until further investigations have been carried out.

A. In the US, millions of farms grow genetically modified maize which is pure poison for the butterfly.
B. In the mountains, which reach a height of 3,000 metres, the butterflies are safe.
C. According to the investigations of the European Union, the Monarch butterfly may disappear in several decades.
D. The long journey, with all its dangers, begins again. [3]

only one event. It was a running race.

2. The games were very popular. Soon there were more events, for example, wrestling and horse

racing. The games took place every four years, for a thousand years. In AD 394 the Roman Emperor

Theodosius stopped them for religious reasons.

3. In 1887, the Frenchman Pierre de Coubertin decided he wanted to restart the Olympic Games. It took a

The parts of the following text are all mixed up. Put them in the right order.

Once the king showed a new portion of his stories to a well-known critic. The critic decided to tell the truth and said that the stories were bad and poor.

When the critic was brought to the palace the king asked him about the stories again. But the critic said he would rather get back to prison.

Of course people were afraid of criticizing the king so they had to lie. Everyone said the stories were extremely good, which was not at all true.

An old king liked to write stories which he thought were very good and professional. He showed them to everyone and asked what those people thought.

After some time the king thought he had been too cruel and decided to set the critic free. He sent his men to the prison and told them to bring the man to the palace.

The king got very angry with him and ordered his men to take him to prison. So the

critic was sent to prison for telling the truth
