like the school and your new classmates, because I know them
well. I worked there, you know. And it was a pleasure for me to

students': happy, bright and a bit lazy!
Here in London your classmates and I miss you very much.
Without you, there are now 19 girls and boys in my class. I wish I were in Russia now2
I told the class about my stay in that big and beautiful country. I showed them some
photos and described everyone of my Russian students. I think they would like to invite
your new friends to London. What do you think of that idea? We will send an invitation
letter soon. It will be great to see you and all my Russian students again.
What's the news there? Do you like your new subjects? Who is the new English teacher in
your class this year? Do you like your new textbooks? I hope your new friends Dima and
Katya will help you with your Russian and Literature. They were my best students last year
and speak English very well.
I hope to hear from you in the near future.

London

20th of September

Dear Lena,
I am Martin Oldfield. I'm Jim's friend. I live in London.
Last summer I visited Russia. It was really great! I was
in St Petersburg. It's such a beautiful and interesting
city. I spent two weeks there. The weather was fine.
We went sightseeing. We travelled on a comfortable
bus round the city. But best of all I enjoyed the palaces
which are situated near St Peter. We were in Pavlovsk,
Pushkin and Peterhof.
There is the most interesting, great and beautiful
palace in Peterhof. It was amazing to see so many
fountains there. The guide told us a lot of stories and
legends about them. It was interesting to listen to him.
After the trip we returned to the city by ship. It was
fantastic! For a minute I imagined myself as a seaman!
I was very happy to visit Russia. It helped me decide
to study the Russian language. I would like to learn
more about Russian history and literature. I like studying
languages. I know a little French and German. And I can
write fairy tales and short poems in English. My dream is
to become a famous writer one day!
Do you have any hobbies? Do you like to travel?
Do you like to learn about the history and traditions
of other countries? And how did you spend
your summer?
Best wishes,
Martin

Dear Martin,
It was great to get a letter from you.
Yes, I like to travel and learn more about
different places. And I also travelled a lot this
summer. In August I went abroad. I spent two
weeks in Cambridge in a summer school camp.
In the morning we spent three hours learning
English. In the lessons we read and discussed
texts, learned English poems by heart, played
games, and used the computers. We also read
interesting stories about English history and
traditions. We took a lot of pictures and had fun.
Now I speak, read and write English much better
than last year.
We also spent three days in London. It was
great! When we go to England, I'd like to visit
London again.
That's great that you like St Petersburg. I like it
very much too.

Drama lessons in our school in London. In my Russian school they don't have such

"Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain. Our producer, who is also our English teacher, asked
me to star as Tom Sawyer! It's really cool! At first I was a little nervous. But after
Sawyer
several rehearsals everything was all right. I am not shy now. I know the words like a Mult Ivtain

Dear Dima,
I am really very sorry I haven't answered your
letter. I know I'm a bad letter writer. I enjoy your
letters very much, so don't give up on me1.
At the moment my family and I are getting
ready for Christmas. A lot of my relatives are
coming to stay with us over Christmas. My
elder sister and her husband are going to
come. They are going to bring their children
with them. The boy is about six months and
the girl is two years old. The boy cries non-
stop. and the girl enjoys playing with me. Next
week I will be very busy cleaning my room and
shopping for Christmas presents.
I still don't know what I'll buy for my parents
but I already know what I'll get for my niece —
a cute teddy bear.
It's really cold and windy here at the
moment. It never seems to stop raining .
Do write soon,

full of little presents. Last year my little sister put a pillowcase1
under the bed to get more presents from Father Christmas.
And in the morning it was full! She found all of her presents,
fruit, nuts, biscuits and sweets in the pillowcase. She was
very happy.
Katya: You said Father Christmas, didn't you?

presents. My little sister and my parents leave a glass of milk
and a plate of biscuits for him in the kitchen.

Read this letter from our English correspondent, Diana Right, who wanted to write
you about a mysterious land called Antarctica. You can learn more about Antarctica
from our magazine "Young Scientist".

Dear Kids,
Here is the story I promised to write to you. Imagine a lot of snow, ice, sun and
cold all in one place. It's called Antarctica! And it is the coldest part of the world.
It is also the highest and the windiest. There are a lot of mountains and icebergs in
Antarctica. Do you know what icebergs are like? They are large and beautiful pieces
of ice like mountains made from glass and snow.
Scientists from different countries stay here for short periods of time. Usually
they live in special stations.
There are some unusual birds that live in Antarctica. They are called penguins.
They are quite big birds but they can't fly at all. But they are excellent swimmers and
divers. While the penguins' mums spend the winter at sea, their dads take care of
the eggs for nine weeks. During this time they don't eat or drink. For extra warmth
these brave and strong birds live in big groups. Together they try to keep their
children out of the cold air and wind.
The blue whale lives in Antarctica too. It is the largest animal in the world. But I
will write you about them in my next story
Send your letters to our magazine. Ask me as many questions as you can and I'll
try to answer them all.

1st March

I'm in London with my classmates. We are having a great time. Lots to see
and to visit in London! Let me tell you about our stay here.
On Monday, we visited the Tower of London and spent the whole day there.
I took lots of photos. Next to the Tower there's the famous Tower Bridge.
I was lucky to get photos of Tower Bridge when it was open, wasn't I? I'll show
you sometime. Next day we went to Buckingham Palace and saw the Changing
of the Guard. There were a lot of tourists there. Imagine, there are more than
600 rooms in the palace and the royal family has got a cinema and a swimming
pool there!
We spent Wednesday in Greenwich. We went there on a boat. We visited the
home of the "Prime Meridian", the imaginary line that divides the world into
east and west. Fantastic place!
Yesterday it was rainy and windy, so we went to the British Museum. You
collect coins, don't you? I bought a special souvenir for you there. Hope you'll
like it. Today it's sunny and warm, and we are going to the London Eye.
Well, I must go now. It's time to leave.

D aniel Defoe [di'fau] (1660-1731) was

ЬФ
a famous English writer He wrote his
world famous novel "The Life and Strange

['кгизэиГ when he was nearly 60 years old.
The story of Robinson Crusoe was based'
on the real adventures of a sailor, who had
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle William Turner William Shakespeare
lived-' alone for four years on a desert
island. The author, however, added some,
adventures for his character. When
Robinson Crusoe found himself alone1 on
an island, he managed to live using only the
things he had on the island. He also met a
black man whom he called Friday. Friday
became his friend.
When the book was published 4 in 1719,
it immediately became popular. Defoe made
Daniel Defoe Charlie Chaplin Pamela Travers his story so realistic that everyone believed it.
Defoe didn't write his book for children.
But nearly every child now knows about
Robinson Crusoe, how he learned to catch
goats and to make pots, how he made an
umbrella and had hundreds of adventures.
Daniel Defoe wrote many other books,
but for "Robinson Crusoe" he is called "the
father of English prose"5.

I would like to tell you a story about my granny.
She's really the most fantastic old lady in the
world! Her real name is Marceline, but I call her
granny Marcel! Before she moved to the city, she
lived in the country. Round her nice farmhouse
there was green grass and beautiful flowers.
Granny Marcel lived alone in her house. My
parents and I couldn't visit her very often. So I was
always so happy to spend my summer holidays in
granny's house.
Granny Marcel didn't feel lonely because she
had so many animals to take care of: a cow, five
hens, two sheep and a cat.
But one day granny Marcel fell ill. She was
not very seriously ill but my father said to her:
"You should move into the city and live with us."
Granny Marcel thought about it and agreed with
my dad. "All right!" she said suddenly. "I'll move
to the city"
1
It was very difficult for her to say goodbye to
her animals. But the kind people from the next
farm over promised to take care of them.
After just a few days, granny Marcel wasn't too
happy in the city in our flat.
One day she went to our balcony. It was big
and got a lot of sun She liked it very much and
decided to grow some flowers there. But soon she
looked very unhappy again. "Are you missing your
animals, granny?" She nodded. "Why don't you
go to the country and bring them all back here?"
I suggested. And granny Marcel smiled.
She came back in a day or two with her cat, five
hens and a sheep. I helped her to feed them all and
get them onto the balcony.
Nowadays granny Marcel is much happier with
her flowers and her animals on the balcony. But
there is still one question: "How is she going to
get her cow into the flat?"

I'm Michael Hopkins. I'm from Scotland I work outdoors

almost the whole year round. It's nice in summer but not
so good in winter. My working day begins at 6 a.m. I work
both on weekdays and at weekends. My wife and two sons
help me. We have lots of animals, such as sheep and cows.
We work in the fields. I'm very busy but I really like my
job. What am I?

I'm Sara Rogers. I live in Bath. I work from 9 a.m. till

6 p.m. I don't work at weekends or on public holidays.
There are a lot of different books, newspapers and
magazines at my workplace. I work with both books and
people. And I always try to be friendly and polite. I help
people to find books and magazines. My favourite part of
the job is to answer questions about modern writers and
their novels. I love my job. I think it's very important.

8 1 Describe the job of one of your parents. Use Ex. 80 as a model.

82 Work in groups of three-four. Choose one of the texts and read it together. Discuss these
questions in your group: Why do people choose these jobs? What other jobs do you know?

Text 1. Bodyguards
The world we live in can be a dangerous one. Some people
need to have a bodyguard to protect them and their
families. Politicians in almost all countries are protected by
bodyguards. Presidents of all countries never go anywhere
without their secret service agents. Important business
people or rock stars may also have bodyguards to protect
them.
Being a bodyguard is a dangerous job. Good bodyguards
are prepared to risk their own lives to protect their clients.
Some bodyguards wear bullet-proof vests'.
Bodyguards also teach their clients how to avoid
dangerous situations. Bodyguards usually stay close to their
clients wherever they go. They can protect their clients'
homes and offices too.

to protect [pra'tekt] — защищать, охранять

a bodyguard fbDdigcrd] — телохранитель
 Text 2. Vets
Animals are very important to people. We keep dogs and cats
as pets. Some farmers have sheep and cows to produce meat
and milk. We ride horses. We watch lions and tigers in the zoos.
For people who love animals, working as a vet is an ideal job.
Vets treat many different kinds of animals,
such as dogs, cats, cows, pigs and horses.
Some vets even treat zoo animals such as
tigers, monkeys and giraffes.
Vets have to be careful when they treat
animals. A scared animal can bite or kick
them. They have to know how to treat
animals well.

to treat |tri:t) — лечить

Text 3. Computer programmers
Computers are very important to people. We have computers at home
and in offices, at schools and in banks, in shops and in libraries. Some
computers help doctors treat people in the hospitals and help students
study at the universities. Computers help people work and enjoy their
free time playing games.
For people who love computers, working as a computer programmer
is an ideal job. Programmers create many kinds of new programs for
computers. Some new programs help us do experiments in science,
create new technologies and make new machines. New *
clever programs help people control driving their cars,
flying planes, and sailing ships.
Lots of people use computers at home. Sometimes they
need the help of a computer programmer who can repair
their computer. Programmers can protect computers
from hackers who create new computer viruses.

Text 4. Teachers
We can't imagine the world we live in without knowledge.
Almost everyone wants to know how to read, write, count
and explore the most important things about life. People of all
professions have usually been to school at some point in their
lives. All presidents, politicians, business people, rock stars,
vets, computer programmers and others have studied at school
and often remember their schoolteachers.
Being a teacher is a very important job. People
who are intelligent, sociable, responsible, loving,
friendly and kind become good teachers! Good
teachers are ready to help their students in many
different situations. They teach their students
how to learn, how to solve problems and how to
choose a future job. Teachers are responsible for
their students and their futures.

Cambridge, GB
20th August
Dear Michael,
I am writing my first letter in English to you from Cambridge, as I have promised
you. There are many students from all over the world living and studying here. I will be
studying at the English Language School for a whole school year. I can't believe it! My
days are unforgettable. I am learning so much every moment. Things are going very well
for me here.
In your letter you asked me to describe my host family, my new friends and many other
things. Well, I hope to describe some of them in this letter.
As for my host family, they are really very nice and hospitable! Their names are Jennifer
and Christian, and they've got a son John. Jennifer is a housewife and, as our mum, she
takes care of the family. She is very understanding and loving. Christian is a mechanic.
He repairs both old and modern cars. He is serious about his work and polite. But he
has a very good sense of humour. John is a nice boy. He is only four but next September
he'll become a pupil. They are very kind and friendly. They made me feel like part of the
family. It is easy for me to get on well with them.
I've made some good new friends at school too. All the students are very friendly. I am
having a really good time. It is very interesting for me to practise English. I love to speak
and learn new English words.
Mickey, you will come to visit me at winter holidays, won't you? Cambridge is
wonderful but I miss my family and Spain.
We are going to have a party tomorrow in our language school. Next weekend we are
going to London. I am looking forward to this trip. In my next letter I'll write you more
about my new school.
Kisses and hugs to you all.
Best wishes from your brother,
Raul

The Last Hot Day

A t the end of the summer Hobbit Bill

stopped his work on the farm to call his
friends round to celebrate the Last Hot Day.
Usually his friends came to Bill's place in the
country to fly kites, swim, play football and
tennis, and even play hide-and-seek. But this
year was special. Master Goodman had come
back to the country.
Gnomes Mosly and Bosly arrived first.
"Always be healthy!" they said. And they
presented a big apple cake to Hobbit Bill.
A group of elfs arrived then. Their names
were Pammy, Patty and Philly. "We wish you
a happy Last Hot Day!" they said. And they
sang their favourite "Garden Game" song.
They brought Hobbit Bill a new football.
"What a nice ball! Thank you, my dear
friends." Hobbit Bill was very happy. All of
his friends drank tea and ate the big apple
cake.
Suddenly the door opened and Master
Goodman came in. All of the friends were
very glad to see him. He gave Hobbit Bill a
magic screen. He said, "You can tell us stories
about your holidays. And then we can see
them on this Magic Screen "

186

Mosly and Bosly told stories about the
sea. All of the guests watched the blue sea
and dolphins in the sea on the Magic Screen.
The sea was blue and wide. It was sunny and
hot. Mosly and Bosly swam and played a lot.
The sun was bright and high in the sky. It
was great!
Then Pammy and Patty told a very inter-
esting story about their summer holidays.
In June they went to London to visit their
grandpa. London is a very big city. There
were a lot of people, cars and tall houses.
One day they couldn't find their way home.
They were very much afraid. But a strong
and brave policeman saved them. All of the
guests watched their story closely on the
Magic Screen. It was so interesting!
Then it was Philly's turn. Philly visited
Africa in July. He was in a Safari Park and
saw a lot of different animals there: camels,
monkeys, elephants, tigers, giraffes and
snakes. All of the guests saw the largest Safari
Park on the Magic Screen. It was amazing!
Finally it was Hobbit Bill's turn to tell
his story. Unlike his friends, he was in the
country in June, July and August. He was
just living on his farm. In the morning he
fed his chickens and ducks, his dog Jack and
his frog Harry. There were green fields and a
long river next to his farm. There was a green
garden with apple trees behind his house. He
rode his horse through the fields. He saw a
lot of cows and sheep there. He talked and
talked about his farm while all of his guests
looked at him and listened. But suddenly
they noticed that the Magic Screen wasn't
working. But why? What was wrong? They
were confused. Master Goodman smiled.
"Look around, everyone. We are here. We
are on Bill's farm. We can fly kites, swim,
play football and tennis, and even play hide-
and-seek. Today is the Last Hot Day. We will
celebrate this Day! We don't need the Magic
Screen!"
