Homework lesson 19

Ex. 4, p. 146

1. Jan

Jan does not like to be a minute later for his lessons. He is not only clever, but he is also a very hard worker
and likes to do everything well. Jan has rather dark brown hair and good grey eyes. He is not very tall, but
he is strong, swims well, and i a good footballer.

2. Lucille

Lucille is beautiful and rich and gay. She is tall and slim with big dark eyes and black hair. She goes out to
dinner or a dance or a theatre almost every evening, and does not generally get to bed until very late at
night- or rather, early in the morning. She does not do very much work.

3. Olaf

Olaf is six foot three tall; he can walk and climb all day and he never feels tired. He is as strong as a horse.
He has blue eyes and yellow hair. He doesn't talk much, but he thinks a lot.

4. Pedro

Pedro is very hand-some, tall and dark and well-dressed. He is rich and clever, too. He does everything well.
He is Spanish, but he speaks English and French very well; he goes everywhere and can talk well about
almost everything- music, pictures, other countries, literature and life.

5. Frieda

Frieda has brown hair and big grey eyes. She doesn't talk much; she is rather quiet, but is very kind and
nice; they all like her. I think that she is pretty, and so do all the other students, except Jan; he thinks that
she is beautiful.

6. Hob

Hob is certainly not handsome or hard-working or clever. But he thinks that he is all these. He doesn't like
swimming or football. He thinks that they are too much like hard work. He doesn't like study. He says that
study makes him tired. He isn't polite, and he isn't well-dressed. He doesn't always listen to lessons in class
(he sometimes goes to sleep there). He isn't quiet; he talks a lot. He is a good eater and a good sleeper. But
he is good-hearted and loves a joke. He knows a lot of funny stories and he always wants to tell them to
you.

A story without words, p. 165

Picture 1. Here is Mr. Thompson leaving home in the morning, and saying goodbye to his wife and family.
There are four children. There are two boys and two girls. One girl is the oldest and one boy is the
youngest.

Picture 2. This is where Mr. Thompson works. He works in the public library. Library is not the same thing as
a bookshop. In the bookshop you buy books and in the library you borrow them for a while. I do not know if
they sell books in libraries in England.

Picture 3. The notice SILENCE mean тиша. You need to be quite, do not talk to anyone.

Picture 4. The three men are speaking at the table. They are not silent. Mr. Thompson is beginning to look
angry.

Picture 5. Mr. Thompson is very angry. He is pointing at the notice saying silence. He is saying that it's a
library, so you should be quite.

Picture 6. The men are not talking now. They are reading silently.
Picture 7 and 8. Two women are coming into the library now. They are talking. Mr. Thompson does not like
this.

Picture 9. Mr. Thompson is pointing at the notice saying silence. He is speaking to women. He is standing
up.

Picture 10. The children are coming into the library now. They are walking in. They are from school. They
are come out from school at twenty minutes past two.

Picture 11. Mr. Thompson is sending them out of the library. They were in it five minutes.

Picture 12. Mr. Thompson is looking pleased, because it is half past twelve.

Picture 13. He is leaving the library and is in his way home.

Picture 14. Here he is at home again. His wife and children look glad to see him.

Picture 15. Mr. Thompson is at home. His wife is playing the piano. His daughters are singing. The youngest
son is playing the drum. Another son is playing with toys. Mr. Thompson has a book in his hand. He has a
pipe with tobacco in his mouth. He is sitting in a big armchair. He is reading the book. He is smoking. Here is
not a notice saying SILENCE in this room. There is not silence in the room. There is a noise. Mr. Thompson
looks happy.
