What season is the best time in the region where you live

Нужно ли помогать людям? Ведь с одной стороны, глубоко внутри себя мы чувствуем потребность в том, чтобы кому-то чем-то помочь, когда у нас есть такая возможность, а с другой, наш жизненный опыт нередко показывает нам, что помогать другим людям не просто невыгодно, но даже в некоторых случаях опасно. И хотя мы не всегда осознаем, насколько на самом деле нам выгодно или невыгодно кому-то чем-то помогать в той или иной ситуации, мы опасаемся это делать, так как знаем, что многие люди склонны злоупотреблять чужой помощью и доверием. Некоторые люди думают так: зачем кому-то помогать, когда можно и нужно заботиться только о себе, в том числе и за счет других людей. Помощь людям кажется очень глупым делом, тем более, что оно еще и неблагодарное в большинстве случаев. Вот поэтому некоторые из нас никогда никому ничем не помогают. Но дело в том, что склонность помогать другим людям заложена в нас природой. Без помощи друг другу мы все давно бы вымерли.

Do I need to help people? Indeed, on the one hand, deep down inside we feel the need to help someone with something when we have such an opportunity, and on the other hand, our life experience often shows us that helping other people is not just unprofitable, but even in some cases dangerous. And although we are not always aware of how profitable or unprofitable it is for us to help someone in this or that situation, we are afraid to do it, because we know that many people are prone to abuse someone else’s help and trust. Some people think this way: why should someone help, when you can and need to take care only of yourself, including at the expense of other people. Helping people seems a very stupid thing, especially since it is also ungrateful in most cases. That’s why some of us never help anyone. But the fact is that the inclination to help other people is inherent in us by nature. Without each other’s help, we would all be extinct long ago.

ОТВЕТЫ:

А — сложный

I’m going to give a talk about the seasons and weather.

The best time in the region where I live is spring, of course. It’s not too cold as it’s during the winter months and not too hot. I love May as it’s the most beautiful time of the year in my region. The trees and some flowers are blossoming. It’s usually sunny and warm so it’s the best time for walking and spending time outside.

I don’t agree with the proverb “There is no bad weather, there are only bad clothes”. I think that people who say that don’t live in Russia. In our country the weather might be extreme sometimes and clothes can’t help. It is difficult to make me leave my home when it’s less than minus 25 degrees outside.

I’ve got a lot of interests so it’s not a big problem for me if it is nasty and cold. Firstly, I’m a fan of sport and can play football/volleyball/tennis inside. Also I paint and draw well and love spending time drawing portraits. I enjoy spending time with my friends having parties and for these activities it doesn’t matter what kind of weather is outside.

Usually the weather in the region where I live is not so bad. So my attitude to it is rather positive.

I think that’s all that I wanted to tell you about the seasons and weather.

1. travelling задание (вариант 1) You are going to give a talk about travelling

Remember to say:

• how long it takes you to do your homework;

• what subject you usually start with, and why;

• whether schoolchildren should be given more or less homework, and why.
Примерный ответ

I’d like to give a talk about my school homework. I think it is part and parcel of my life now.

To begin with, I’d like to say that school homework is an essential part of school education. Almost everyone who goes to school is given hometasks.

Our teachers usually ask us make some exercises so we can practice what we’ve learnt during the day. So, it usually takes me about 3 hours to finish my homework.
I have some favourite subjects, such as English, Literature, IT. That’s why I usually start

doing my homework with these subjects.
From my point of view schoolchildren should be given less homework. In such way they will be able to prepare for the lessons better.

All in all, I firmly believe that school homework makes our life busier. Every time a have a chance I try to do my homework in advance. In this way I manage to save time during the school week. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

Примерный ответ

I’d like to give a talk about television. I think it’s a topical question and is part and parcel of our life.
To begin with, I’d like to say that TV is one of the greatest inventions of all times. It is impossible to imagine days when people lived without TV.
In my opinion, watching TV is losing its popularity with teenagers. The reason is that teenagers prefer the Internet to TV. Not long ago, TV used to be the main source of information and entertainment. It is no longer the case. If you want to watch something entertaining, you don’t need TV. There are lots of youtube channels providing clips, shows, interviews with celebrities. You can start watching a video, pause it for any time and then start again. You can’t do the same trick with television.

As for me I usually watch TV about seven hours a week. Unfortunately, I don’t have a chance to spend in front of the TV – set more than one hour a day. I have to do my homework and go to extra lessons.

My favourite TV programme is the Cooking Shows because I get to learn new recipes or learn how to make a specific food.

There are a lot of things I dislike about TV. But endless blocks of commercials drive me really crazy!

All in all, I firmly believe that television makes our life more interesting. Every time a have a chance I try to watch some useful TV programmes. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

Remember to say:

• whether you have a lot of free time, and why, or why not;

• what you enjoy doing in your free time;

• what your Sunday afternoons are like.

You have to talk continuously.

I’d like to give a talk about my free time. I think it’s a topical question and is part and parcel of our life.

To begin with, I’d like to say that people have to work more and more in the modern world to make a career, earn a living, and become succesful. This also holds true for teenagers, because they have to study a lot. So, both adults and teenagers don’t have much free time.

As for me, I don’t have much free time either, because I am faced with a number of important exams this year. As I don’t want to fail them, I make every effort to learn the necessary material. I read a lot of textbooks and additional articles, do exercises, attend preparation courses, and so on.

As for my Sunday afternoons, I spend this time doing my homework for Monday. Sometimes I manage to watch TV, to play computer games or just to listen to music and simply relax. From time to time when the weather is fine I go for a walk.

All in all, I firmly believe that free time activities make our life more interesting and various. Every time I have a chance I try to do something interesting. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

Remember to say:

• which of the four seasons you like most, and why;

• how the Earth’s climate has changed recently;

• whether you trust the weather forecast, and why.

You are going to give a talk about the seasons and weather. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes.

I’d like to give a talk about the weather and seasons. I think it’s a topical question and is part and parcel of our life.

To begin with, I’d like to say that there are four seasons in a year: winter, spring, summer, and autumn.

My favourite season is summer. I like it because the weather is mostly great, the days are long and it’s very warm. I also have the longest holidays of the year. That’s the last, but not the least reason why I like summer most of all.
I think that summer is the best time in the region where I live. There are some reasons for that. They are; it’s very warm here in summer, you can swim in the river, you can enjoy beautiful nature in summer, too.
From my point of view the Earth’s climate has recently changed very much. Winters have become quite warm and snowless and spring comes late enough.

As for the weather forecast I don’t always trust it because the weather can be very changeable and unpredictable. When you want to enjoy sunny weather and blue sky there are clouds everywhere. But happens so that the weather behave itself better.

I agree with the proverb «There is no bad weather, there are only bad clothes» in general. People should put on their clothes according to the seasons and weather.

When it’s nasty and cold, I prefer to stay at home reading a book or watching TV with a cup of hot tea.

To sum it up, I’d like to say that there’s no bad weather or season, there’s only your attitude to it, Luckily, that’s the one thing you can change. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

Remember to say:

• why people like taking pictures

• why taking photos is more popular today than it was in the past

• what the best photo you have ever taken is
Примерный ответ

Well, I am going to give a talk about photography.
To begin with, I’d like to say that people have always wanted beautiful moments of life to last forever. Photography helps them to make it happen.
People like taking pictures for a number of reasons. As I have just mentioned, people want to save beautiful moments of life forever. For example, while visiting an exotic country, you see lots of things that don’t exist in your own area. You never see a coconut tree in Siberia and heaps of snow somewhere in the south. Why not to take a picture? In addition to it, people take pictures not only for fun but also for fixing details of an occurrence. It is often the case when pictures help to investigate a crime.
It is really a fact that taking photos is more popular today than it was in the past. The main reason is that taking photos has become much easier today. You just take a smartphone, do a click and that’s it. It has also become easier to share photos with friends. You can upload it on your profile in a social net and let everyone see it.
As for me, I like taking photos very much. Frankly speaking, I have many good photos, but the best one was taken last year in the Altai Mountains. My friends and I effected an ascent of a mountain and took a picture on the very top of it. The picture is just awesome! When I look at it, I admire wonderful nature and remember my friends.

In the end I would like to say that taking photos helps us save one of the most precious things in life – our memories, which can always be with us when we look at this or that picture. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.
16 FRIENDS.
You are going to give a talk about your best friend. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10-12 sentences).

Well, I am going to give a talk about my best friend as it’s an important topic for me.
We all need friends. Friends play an important role in our life. In my opinion a real friend is a person whom you trust and respect, who is «a friend in need» and who never lets you down. There are no rules of how to make friends. Usually friendship between people grows when they have common views and judgements on things and events, have common interests and ambitions.
There are several school-mates with whom I am friends and whose company I enjoy. They are nice and pleasant people in many ways and they are interesting to talk to. But a person who is very special for me is my friend …. I have known her for over five years since we came to live in a new block of flats and we studied at the same school. She never speaks badly of other people and finds more positive than negative features in every person. I admire her for that.
We spend quite a good deal of time together. We share every secret and understand each other so well that as they say we «finish each other’s sentences». We enjoy going for walks together and talk a lot.
In the end I would like to say that I am proud of having such a friend and I’ll try to keep up our friendship as long as I can. That’s all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.
17 SCHOOL HOLIDAYS
You are going to give a talk about your school holidays. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10-12 sentences).

18 FILMS
You are going to give a talk about films. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10-12 sentences).

Remember to say:

· what kinds of films modern teenagers enjoy

· where you prefer watching films: on TV, on the Internet or in the cinema, and why

· what film you have seen recently, what it was about

You have to talk continuously.
Примерный ответ.

Well, I’m going to give a talk about films as it’s an interesting topic for me.
To tell the truth, modern teenagers enjoy different kinds of films. Thrillers, comedies, adventures, science fiction films and even horrors are among teenagers’ favourite films. Besides, some of teens prefer watching action films and crime films. I can always meet a lot of peers in the cinema.
However, in my opinion, watching films on the Internet is more convenient because I can always pause the film when I really need it. For example, if I have to answer the phone call. More than that, watching films on the Internet is free, that’s why I can do it every day if I want to.
Personally, I watch films online very often. I have seen “Titanic” recently. In fact, that film was about love on board of famous British passenger liner which sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in 1912. Although, the film is rather old I liked it a lot.
This is the end of my talk. Thank you for listening.

19 ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS.
You are going to give a talk about environmental problems. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10-12 sentences).

Remember to say:

· why people worry about environmental problems nowadays

· what the most serious environmental problem in the place where you live is

· what young people can do to improve the ecological situation

You have to talk continuously.
Примерный ответ.

Well, I’m going to give a talk about environmental problems as it’s a serious topic for me.
To begin with, I’d like to say that p eople worry about environmental problems nowadays a lot. There are lots of TV programmes and newspaper articles that explain that if we don’t stop polluting the air and if we continue to destroy the forest, the situation will become very dangerous for all of us.
There are some environmental problems in our town, too. The first one is that we suffer from air pollution as there are too many cars in the streets. It’s especially harmful for elderly people and small children. Another problem is our river. It’s very dirty and it’s dangerous to swim there. There’s rubbish on the beach and on the banks of the river.
Ordinary people and teenagers like me can’t solve global environmental problems but we can clean up our town and keep our parks and river banks tidy. As for me. I never throw plastic bottles or ice cream packages on the ground. If some of my friends do, I make them pick up their rubbish myself. They usually feel very uncomfortable about it and never do it again.

That’s all I wanted to say about environmental problems. Thank you for listening.
