a recent world event - the first IYD was on August 12, 2000. It was
established by the UN (United Nations Organisation). IYD is a chance for
people all around the world to focus on problem s of young people.

young people. It is a chance to ask ourselves: what kind of future world do
we want for our youth? What can we do? There are a lot of IYD events in
your local area. They are workshops, talks, conferences, concerts, cultural
events and meetings. Get involved. Help create a brighter future!

LESSON 3 Old traditions in modern life
1 a W o rk in p a irs . T h in k a b o u t tra d itio n s .
What traditions do you know?
Are all traditions old?
Are old traditions im portant in our lives? W hy?/Why not?
Choose a tradition. What do people usually do?
1 b W o rk in p a irs . Read and c h e c k y o u r id e a s.
What is a tradition? Probably, traditions are a way of defining

who people are. Traditions are som ething that people keep
doing fo r a long tim e and join different generations together.
T hat’s why traditions are very im portant in any country.
There are a lot of traditions in our everyday lives which we

carry on in our country. We celebrate birthdays, holidays and
traditional wedding ceremonies. The fam ily meal is another
tradition that we should try to keep up in our everyday
lives. Family meals reflect country’s culture and traditions.
Besides, it is a good way to bring the fam ily together and
a good chance for parents and children to talk.
People all over the world traditionally celebrate such a com

mon holiday as New Year. But of course, each country has
its own national traditional holidays connected with its history.
There are some old traditions in Uzbekistan which make us
proud of our country. For example, hospitality and traditional
respect for elders. Tea cerem ony and sharing it with the guests
takes place in our life as an elem ent of hospitality.
4 Ceremonies of Uzbek people have form ed over the centuries

as a result of com plex process of cultures and traditions of
different nationalities. They are quite original, bright, and go
back to the past. Many cerem onies are associated with the
birth and upbringing of children, and wedding.

3b W o rk in p a irs . R ead a nd c h e c k y o u r id e a s.
Customs of giving a name in Uzbekistan go to the past. There are

mainly Arabic (Ali, Asad, Farida, Lailo), Persian (Behruz, Rustam, Gulbahor,
Yasmina) and some modern names in Uzbekistan. In different regions,
there are popular local names. In 2018 the boys were often called Mustafo
(7 785 children). Among girls, Soliha was given to 7,030 newborns.
In Arab culture, common girl names were the names of fam ous women
from Quran, fo r example, Fatima, Aisha, Kamila. Names of the national
Uzbek group are Altyngul and Gulchehra. They com pare girls with flowers.
Uzbek male names always mean som ething. Sometimes names corres
pond to the nature of the baby or its individual features. For example, in
Uzbek families, a boy with light hair is rarely born. Then he is called Saribek
or Okboy, which means “yellow” and “w hite” .
Parents often want the boys to have courage and strength that they
get from their names. Pulat and Temir mean “steel” and “ iron.” Also, the
tradition of calling a baby after the heroes of great legends or history is
popular. Ulugbek or Farhod are examples of this custom.
At present, many new and unusual names have appeared.
3c W o rk in p a irs. T a lk a b o u t y o u r fa m ily ’s o r y o u r re la tiv e s ’ nam es.

1) Who gave you this name?
2) What does your name mean?
3) Is your name usual/unusual?
4) Do you like your name? W hy?/Why not?
My nam e’s Buri. It’s an Uzbek name. My grandparents lived in the village
in the mountains. My grandad was a woodcutter. W oodcutters usually
give their sons such names as Urman (“fo re st” ) and Buri. Buri means “a
w o lf” . He wanted me to become strong and brave as a wolf.
My nam e’s Anora. My parents have chosen this name for me because it is
not only a beautiful name. Anor means “a pom egranate” . Anor is a national
fruit. A lot of dishes are decorated with pictures of this fruit. You can see
beautiful em broidery designs with pomegranates on national costumes and
suzannes. Many people live in mahallas called Anorzor. It means the place
where a lot of pomegranates grow. I like my name very much.

they left the island. But in spite of the help
of Aeolus, King of the Winds, they could not
come home again though it was alm ost in
sight.
When the sailors lived on an island of the

LESSON 5 What’s your favourite mass media?
1 a Read a nd s a y w h a t “ te ll a fr ie n d ” s tra te g y is.
L ede (Lea d )
The lede (or lead) of a news article is the first sentence, usually written as
one paragraph, that tells the most im portant inform ation of the story. When
writing a lede, it is helpful to use the “tell a frie n d ” strategy. Imagine you
should tell your friend a story in one sentence. How would you say what
happened in one sentence? A sto ry’s lede gives an answer with the “ Five
W s” in a specific order: Who? What? When? Where? Why?
For example:
Gwinnett County Public Schools were awarded $250,000 early Wednesday
as a finalist for w hat’s considered the Nobel Prize of public education.
WHO: Gwinnett County Public Schools
WHAT: was awarded $250,000
WHEN: Wednesday
WHERE: Gwinnett County
WHY: a finalist fo r w hat’s considered the Nobel Prize of public education.

In v e rte d p y ra m id
News articles are written in a structure known as the “ in Most
im portant
verted pyram id.” In the inverted pyramid form at, the most
facts
im portant inform ation goes at the beginning of the story
and the least im portant inform ation goes at the end.
Least
After your sto ry’s lede, order the inform ation that follows im p o rta n t
from most im portant to least important. fa c ts
3 Read and w r ite in fo rm a tio n w ith a q u o te .
In te g ra tin g q u o te s
The first tim e a source is introduced in an article, you should use that
source’s full name and title. After this initial reference, use the last name
only. For example:
“The swine flu vaccine is an incredible advance in modern m edicine,” said
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.
When introducing a direct quote, always use the verb “said” and never any
other verbs such as “explained,” “w hispered,” etc. It is also more common
to use the form at “XXX said” instead of “said XXX.” For example:
“The housing crisis is growing out of con tro l,” Bernanke said.
Even when inform ation from a source is not used in a direct quote and is
paraphrased instead, it still must be related to that source. For example:
Bernanke said the crisis is probably over.
The crisis will most likely begin to go down in six to eight months, Bernanke
said.

of the authors of the phrase is Francis Bacon, who said, “ Knowledge is
power” . But these days, in the period of active developm ent of inform ation

play an active role in the developm ent of the new age. We can see the
first steps of the new age in the developm ent of inform ation technologies

Probably, you can’t wait fo r the day you can go to the store and
easily (and cheaply) buy a robot to clean your house, wait on
you and do whatever you want. We know that day is a long way
off, but some high-tech companies have already developed some
pretty robots that make us feel like the future is here already.
Sofia is a humanoid-like robot that can hold a conversation. This robot has
appeared in several TV programm es. Sofia officially lives in Saudi Arabia
and she was given a title “ Innovation Cham pion” by the United Nations.
Sofia can answer many kinds of questions and she is learning too. Is she
an image of the future?
Starship technologies have developed this local robot designed to quickly
take parcels to a place which is farther than 3 km. This wheeled self
driving bot is used instead of flying objects. Will the postal packets be
only carried by flying and wheeled robots?
. x Don’t w orry about carrying your own bags. Gita Bot will help you! This small
robot is designed to follow you around while y o u ’re out and about in town
or on the way to work. The bot can carry a big rucksack or two shopping
bags, so it’s an ideal companion fo r a quick trip down to the shops.
Romeo is a robot which is as big as a human. It was designed and built to
assist the elderly people because it is difficult fo r old people to take care of
themselves. This robot is able to open doors, clim b stairs and hold objects
while doing its care duties. In the future, this clever bot may help elderly
people to stay in their own homes longer before moving into care homes fo r
old people.

are. It is dangerous to meet online friends as they
could be bad people.
3 Never click on a button if you do not know what it is or
if you want to get dangerous inform ation. Clicking on
an app button could bring the dangerous viruses into
your device. People could also gather your personal
inform ation. Never click on unknown emails, ads and

For hundreds of years printed books are bought and sold. They have not
changed very much until now. The idea of an electronic book reader with
a screen instead of pages has become reality. Lots of E-book Reader pro
grams were produced and millions of e-books were downloaded from web
resources. Nowadays, there are about 725,000 e-books on Amazon and
thousands more are added every year. So what is the future of books? Will
printed books be com pletely replaced by e-books? They are not replaced
yet. But, maybe, very soon there will be no printed books in shops at all.
Perhaps they will only be in museums!

e .g . My favourite book is “ Bitter Fruit” by Brian Keeney. This is the story
of Rebecca and her family. She often disagrees with her parents.
The book tells how Rebecca lives on after her fa th e r’s death. I would
recommend the book to all teenagers.
In Great Britain many books fo r young readers are published every year.
Teenagers often write about the books they have read. They write about
the them e of books, explain why they like them and recom m end other
teenagers to read them. This kind of writing is called a “ Book review” . The
following book reviews are written by three English teenagers.
“ Storm breaker” by Anthony Horowitz is a thrilling book about Alex Rider
and his teenage spy adventures. His uncle was killed and Alex wants to
know who killed him. Later he was trained by Ml 6 * as a spy and sent on
his first mission. Soon he discovers a dangerous situation and decides
what to do.
“Stormbreaker” is an excellent book which kept me on the edge of my seat.
*M I 6 - the section o f the British S ecret Service
“Coram Boy” (the w riter is Jamila Gavin) is a book about the life of people
in the 18th century. A man called Otis and his son collect unwanted babies
from mothers and promise to send them to a good orphanage, the Coram
Hospital. However, Otis is a dishonest man and quite often these babies
die. The book also tells us about two boys who d o n ’t have parents: Toby
and Aaron, and what they decide to do.
It is a book full of love, unfriendly people and it is very exciting. The
chapters are about the right size, and to anyone who finds it slow at the
beginning, I say just keep on reading, you w on’t be disappointed.
“ Bitter Fruit” (the author is Brian Keeney) is about Rebecca and her
family. Rebecca is a teenager girl. She often disagrees with her parents.
Once on a very bad day she tells her father that she hates him. These are
the last words she says before he dies. This is the story of how she lives
on after her fa th e r’s death. The beginning of the book is slightly too long,
and I d id n ’t want to read on. However, it gets better and by the end I liked
it very much.

Last week my friends and I went to the cinema to see Harry Potter and
the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
This film is final in the Harry Potter series. The film finishes the story of
Harry and his wizard friends, Ron and Hermione. In the film, Harry and his
friends won the battle against their enemy Lord Voldemort.
Harry and his friends are grow n-ups in this film, and we can see how
brave they are. Although it is a film fo r teenagers, the special effects
are fantastic and som etim es frightening! The film shows good lessons of
bravery and loyalty. I saw all the film s in the Harry Potter series and did
not like all, but I enjoyed this film a lot.

2 How is classical music different from other
genres of music?
3 Why do people love classical music? 3 b Read and c h e c k yo u r answ ers.
Classical music has been composed by musicians

who were taught how to write it and they wrote it down
so that other musicians can play it.
Classical music differs from pop music because it is
not made just in order to be popular for a short time.
It is different from folk music which is generally made
up by ordinary members of the society and learned by
future generations by listening, dancing and copying.
It is a genre that beautifully expresses every imaginable emotion and tells so many
brilliant stories throughout history. Playing classical music to young children has been
proven to help with their cognitive development, to develop their imagination, and also
to produce a calming effect.

A still life is a painting of a group of objects, such as fruit or flowers.
The objects often are symbols of something. For example, fruit,
vegetables and meal in still lifes were often religious symbols.
Landscape / Seascape / C itysca pe

A landscape is a painting that shows a view of the countryside. A landscape
might show mountains or hills, a lake or a forest.
A seascape is a painting that shows a view of the sea. Some seascapes
show a peaceful view of the ocean, while others show high waves and
storm clouds overhead.
A cityscape is a painting that shows a view of a big or small city. A
cityscape might show skyscrapers, or city lights on the wet road or sellers
shouting to passers-by. In all of these, the focus of the painting is the place
itself and not any specific event or person.

One day Dorian attends Sibyl’s perfor

performance is terrible. Sibyl tells Dorian
that she can no longer act well, because he
has shown her a beautiful reality. Dorian is
surprised by her poor acting. He tells her
that he does not love her anymore, and he
returns home.
To his surprise, the face in his portrait
becomes very cruel. He thinks that his wish
to stay young is coming true, so he wants
to be good so that both he and the portrait
can remain young. So the next day he wants
to apologize to Sibyl and marry her after all.
However, he is too late: Sibyl dies at the

A dvantages o f B io fu e ls
1) Biofuels can be used with all kinds of engines and in most conditions.
This keeps the engine use longer and needs less care, which saves money.
Moreover, they are becoming cheaper in the future.
2) Biofuels are made from many different sources, such as plants grown
for the fuel, and waste from crops. Fossil fuels will end sometime in the
near future. Waste from crops and plants are renewable and are not likely
to run out soon. These crops can be planted again and again.
3) Fossil fuels produce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These
greenhouse gases cause the planet to warm. The burning of coal and oil
increases the temperature and causes global warming. To reduce green
house gases, people around the world are using biofuels. Scientists say
that biofuels reduce greenhouse gases up to 65 percent.
4) Not every country has much oil. If a country starts using biofuels, this
country will be able to develop its economy. More jobs will be created with
a biofuel industry. It will keep economy strong.
5) Since biofuels are made of renewable resources, they are cleaner
fuels. It means that they produce less dangerous waste and cause less
pollution to the planet.

For a tree to reach full growth, it needs good climate and
enough water. In tropical climates with warm weather and a

in cooler regions may take several hundred years to reach full
growth. The oldest tree in the world is a Great Basin pine in

The first people who created plays were the ancient Greeks in
700 BC. The ancient Greeks invented two types of plays. Tra
gedies always had a sad ending, while comedies always had
a happy ending. Both kinds of plays are still used today. The
chorus sang and danced as part of a play. Only men played
in the theatre. They wore masks. The masks were different for
each type of play. The best known ancient Greek playwrights
were Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides. Some of their plays
are still performed today. Sophocles wrote 123 plays! These
plays were performed outdoors in large open air theatres, so that up to
15,000 people could see them. There were contests among the playwrights
and the winner got a prize. The audience was men, women and children.

Since we all live in AD or CE (Common Era)
years now, there is no need to say “AD” , it
is understood. So, it is 2020 AD, but all that
you say is 2020. If you have a date in BC or
BCE (Before Common Era) and you want to
find out how long ago it was, you just add it to
the current year. So, if we want to know how
long ago 1000 BC was, it was 3020 years ago
(2020 + 1000 = 3020).

The cruel wizard Abanazaar wanted to have power to rule the world. But the
power could be only given to one person. It was Aladdin. When Abanazaar
arrived in Peking, he looked for Aladdin and asked him to get a magic
lamp from a secret cave. Abanazaar said that he was his long lost relative.
He said that he would give Aladdin a lot of money. Aladdin needed money
because he wanted to marry the Princess and so he agreed. But things
got even better when Aladdin rubbed the lamp himself, and saw the Genie.
Abanazaar was angry and he ordered Aladdin to give the lamp to him.
Aladdin did not want to give it to him and Abanazaar tried to kill him ... .

Learn how to make a sock puppet... it is so easy to make.
Firstly, find a sock that you want to use and find some material, scissors,
buttons, string and some cardboard.
Next cut an oval out of the cardboard and glue pink or black or red
material on to it or use markers or paint. Let it dry completely and then
fold the oval in half. It is a mouth.
Cut out a red tongue, as in the picture below. Fold over the tongue and
then glue it to the inside fold of the oval.
Now place your hand in the sock....and find where the comfortable place
for your hand to open and close it. Then glue the oval there for the mouth.
Next sew or glue buttons for eyes. Also glue string to the top of the sock
puppet for hair. Add your own details. Wasn’t that fun?!
