Title: Invitation letter
Dear Chris,
Thank you for your letter. I’m glad that you
started the new school year well. I hope your
Russian will improve in your new school. I’m sure
that you will like the new school and your new
classmates, because I know them well. I worked
there, you know. And it was a pleasure for me
to teach Russian boys and girls. They are very
similar to English students1: 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 Russia. I showed them some photos and described my Russian students.
We would like to invite your new friends to London. What do you think of that idea?
We will send the invitation letter soon. It will be great to see my Russian students
again.
What’s the news? Did you enjoy your summer holidays? 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 Egor and Sveta will help you with your
Russian. They were my best students and they speak English very well.
I hope to hear from you in the near future.
Give my best wishes to your teachers and classmates,
Julia Nelson

24th September 2016
Dear Vika,
My name is Tony. I am from Great Britain. I’m Chris Moll’s
friend. I live in London. Last summer my dad and I went abroad,
we visited Russia. We were in St Petersburg. It was really great!
It’s such a beautiful city. We 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 palace which is
situated near St Petersburg. We were in Peterhof.
There is a great and very beautiful palace in Peterhof. It was
amazing to see so many different fountains there. The guide told
us a lot of old legends about them. It was interesting to listen to
her. 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 know a little French. And I can write short
stories and draw funny pictures. My dream is to become a famous
artist one day!
Do you have any hobbies? Do you like to travel? And how did
you spend your summer?
Best wishes, LOOK AND LEARN!

School Uniform
Most British schoolchildren wear a school uniform. Boys wear a shirt
and a tie, dark trousers and a pullover. Girls usually wear a white
blouse with a dark skirt and a pullover. The colours of the pullover
may be grey, brown, blue or green. Boys often wear school caps and
girls sometimes wear hats. Shoes are usually black or brown.
Children of ten and eleven don’t often like their school uniform,
especially the hats and shoes. Sometimes they do not wear the correct
uniform. Schools often give them a warning the first time this happens.
But the second time they are punished if they don’t wear the correct
uniform.

On Monday George said to his Mum and Dad: “I don’t know what to do in
the future. I don’t know what job to choose.” His Mum answered: “You have a lot
of interesting clubs at school. Find out about them and choose the one you like best!
It will help you to choose your job.”
“OK, Mum!” answered George. “I like dancing, so maybe I will be a dancer.
I’ll go to the Dancing Club tomorrow and find out!”
On Tuesday George and his friends went to the Dancing Club. George enjoyed
dancing. He was happy. “I’m going to be a dancer, I’ve decided,” George told his
parents that day. And they smiled.
On Wednesday Miss Rumble, their new Science teacher, came to class. She spoke
about nature and told the children how to take care of animals and birds. In the
evening George said to his parents: “I don’t want to be a dancer anymore. I want
to join the Nature Studies Club now. I want to be a scientist!” And his parents smiled
again.
On Thursday George went to the swimming pool. “I don’t want to be a scientist
anymore. I like swimming, I like water and the swimming pool. I want to be a
famous swimmer!” he told his parents. And his parents smiled again.
On Friday George went to the theatre. The actors were amazing and at that
moment he decided to become an actor!
At the weekend George was very sad and he said to his parents: “It’s so difficult to
choose! I like to dance, to swim, and to take care of animals. But yesterday I decided
to become an actor. How can I choose the right job?”
“Don’t be in a hurry, son!” said his Dad. “You are too young to make this choice
yet! Wait and you will find what you like best,” said his Mum.
“OK, I’ll think about it later!” said George.

b) wanted to go for a walk on Sunday morning;
c) wanted to give the pet to someone else;
d) played hide-and-seek;
e) made some chocolate biscuits;
f) was sorry for what she said.
It was a cold winter Sunday morning. Penny woke up and looked out of the
window. She thought, “I’m not going to play outdoors today. It’s windy and snowy.
I am going to stay at home all day.” Then she closed her eyes and tried to fall asleep.
Suddenly the door opened and her mother came in. She said, “Penny, wake up!
It’s time to take Toby for a walk.”
Penny opened her eyes and sat on the bed. She looked at her mother and said,
“I don’t want to get up. I don’t want to take Toby for a walk in the snow. I’m going
to stay in my warm bed for the whole day.”
But her mother answered, “Penny, get up! Toby wants to go out. He is your dog.
You must take him for a walk.”
57
UNIT 2 Section 2
“I don’t want to,” said Penny and closed her eyes.

“OK,” said her mother. “If you don’t want to take care of Toby, I will give him to
Andrew or Helen. They will be happy to take Toby for a walk and play with him.”
She closed the door and went into the kitchen.
Penny stayed in her bed. “I don’t want to get up. But I don’t want to give Toby to
Andrew or Helen either1,”— she thought.
Penny sighed and put on her clothes. “All right, Mum. I’m going to take Toby for
a walk.”
It was cold outside. Toby barked and ran around in the snow. He tried to catch
snowflakes. He was nice and funny and Penny smiled, “Oh, Toby, I love you. I’m
sorry I didn’t want to take you for a walk.” And they started playing hide-and-seek.
When Penny and Toby came back home, they were cold but happy.
After breakfast Penny’s mother said, “Penny, can you ...?”
“No! I don’t want to,” Penny said, before her mum could finish the sentence.
“I was going to ask you to help me make some chocolate biscuits, but if you don’t
want to ... .” Penny liked to help her mother in the kitchen and she liked chocolate
biscuits very much.
“Oh, I want to do it, Mum. Let’s make some biscuits,” Penny said. “And ...
I’m sorry, Mum.”
They spent the rest of the morning in the kitchen. The biscuits turned out2 very
tasty.

Dear Chris,
Thank you for your letter. It was interesting to read about your
Russian friends and your new school. You are going to study
Russian, aren’t you? How long are you going to stay in Moscow,
then? What places are you going to see and visit there?
I am on a trip to the USA with my aunt, my uncle and my cousin
Simon. We are in Washington now. We came to the American
capital last Sunday. We went sightseeing and took lots of photos.
There are many famous museums in Washington. But I think that
the National Air and Space Museum is the most interesting. It has
the largest collection of planes and spaceships1 in the world.
We spent 4 hours in the museum.
Two days ago, on the 31st of October, people celebrated the
holiday of Halloween. It was great! People decorated their houses
with orange pumpkins. In the evening they arranged Halloween
fancy dress parties2. There were witches, monsters and ghosts
everywhere. Funny, isn’t it? There are some photos in the file, have
a look!
We have a lot of other plans for the rest of our trip.
Tomorrow we are going to visit our friends who live not far from
the capital.
Then we are going to travel by car and see New York. Sounds
great, doesn’t it?
Well, that’s all for now. We are going to be back to London
in two weeks.

are you?” Remember that it is not really a question about health. The answer is “Fine
(or not bad), thank you. And you?” Do not explain how you really feel.
B. There are different words to greet people in English: good morning, good afternoon
(until 6.00 p.m.), good evening (until midnight) and hello. You can say hello in the
morning, in the daytime or in the evening.
C. If a British family invites you to their house, be careful to come on time. In Britain it is
not necessary to take your shoes off when you enter someone’s house. But it is impo-
lite2 for men to wear hats in the house.
D. Always say please and thank you. They are very important words in the English lan-

Christmas is one of the favourite children’s holidays in Great Britain and Europe.
It is a wonderful holiday which brings children a lot of gifts, sweets and tasty cakes.
Gifts are very important at Christmas. According to the legend, Father Christmas
brings gifts only to good children. In all English-speaking countries he is called
Santa Claus.
Father Christmas is a man of 70 with a beard1 and moustache2. He has a red and
white coat and a black belt. He wears black boots and a red cap on his head. There is
a large sack3, full of gifts, on his back.
In December children usually write letters to Father Christmas and ask him for
gifts. In the past children put their letters at the back of the fireplace. Children
thought that the letters flew through the chimney4 to Father Christmas.
It is believed that Father Christmas lives at the North Pole. The whole year his
elves5 make toys for Christmas. In December Father Christmas puts the toys into his
sack and brings them to the children. Father Christmas works hard on Christmas
Eve. He travels in a sleigh pulled by nine reindeer. On Christmas night Father Christ-
mas goes through the chimney into the house and puts gifts for the children in spe-
cial Christmas stockings or under the Christmas tree.

READING

Read this information from our British correspondent, Susan White, who writes
for our online magazine “Young Explorer”. You can read her stories about different
interesting places in the world. Her last trip was to Antarctica.
Dear girls and boys,

Here is the story I promised to write for you. Imagine a lot of snow, ice 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 place. There are a lot of 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 at special stations.
There are some unusual birds that live in Antarctica. They are called penguins.
They are quite big birds and they can’t fly at all. But they are excellent swimmers and
divers. While the penguins mums spend the winter time 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, 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 to you about the whales in my next story.
Send your letters with your questions to our magazine. I will try to answer all
of them.

Dear Sasha,
I’m writing to you from London. We came here a week ago
at the invitation of London West Square School. It’s our first
visit to London and we are enjoying sightseeing. Let me tell
you about our stay here.
On Monday we went to Buckingham Palace and saw
the Changing 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! The
next day we visited the Tower of London. I took lots of photos.
Next to the Tower there is the famous Tower Bridge.
I was lucky to take photos of it when it opened.
We spent Wednesday in Greenwich. We went there by boat.
We visited the home of the “Prime Meridian”. It divides
the world into the East and the West. I took a photo of this
fantastic place too.
Yesterday it was rainy and windy, so we went to the British
Museum. You collect coins, don’t you? I bought a special souve-
nir for you there. Hope you’ll like it. Today it’s sunny and warm,
so we are going to the London Eye.

It was sunny and warm that Saturday morning, and Olivia decided to spend the
day in the park. She came out of the house, bought a packet of crisps, turned to the
left, passed a newly painted building and came into the park. Olivia walked slowly
along the lane. She went past the playground where she saw playing children and
their smiling mothers. It was very noisy. Olivia turned to the left. There was nobody
there. Olivia saw only the singing birds in the trees and the jumping squirrels.

Soon Olivia found a nice bench1. An old man was sitting there2. He was reading3
a newspaper. Olivia sat down on the bench, took out her book and started to read.
Olivia took some crisps from the opened packet of crisps between her and the old
man, and he took some crisps from the packet too. Olivia was surprised. She looked
at the strange man, but he was calm. Olivia didn’t say anything and started reading
again.
Every time Olivia took some crisps from the packet, the old man took some crisps
too. Soon there were only a few crisps left in the packet. The girl looked at the strange
old man. He took the last two crisps and gave one to Olivia. The girl was surprised.
She put the book into her bag and left the park as fast as possible.
When Olivia came home and took the book out of her bag, she saw the packet of
crisps in her bag.

Today I want to tell you about a birthday party. One of our

She invited me and some other Russian students to her party.
We had a good time. We made new friends, played games,
danced and took photos. I have attached some of the photos
to this letter. Have a look! In the first photo I am chatting
with my new English friends. I spoke English and you’ll be
surprised but we managed to understand each other. In the
second photo, Egor is playing a board game with Philip.
And in the third photo, we are singing “Happy Birthday to
you!” around the birthday cake. The cake is nice, isn’t it?
And it was very tasty. I had two pieces of it.
So our London trip is going on. I’ll write you again
tomorrow.

British people like drinking tea. Tea became

Nowadays British people drink tea at breakfast,
lunch, tea-time (around 3—5 o’clock) and dinner. They like tea more than coffee.
Tea came to Britain from China in the 17th century. At that time British people
usually had breakfast (in the morning) and dinner (in the evening). Some of them
were hungry in the afternoon. The Duchess Anna Maria of Bedford decided to have
a cup of tea and a little snack (slices of bread and butter) around 5 p.m. Then she
started to invite guests to her “afternoon tea”. Soon “the afternoon tea” became
popular. But tea was very expensive and only rich people could drink it.
Nowadays “afternoon tea” is still popular with all the people in the country. Brit-
ish people have it between three and five in
the afternoon. They set the table and have a LOOK AND LEARN!

122 Read the text and say why the novel about Robinson Crusoe
became popular.
Daniel Defoe (1660—1731) was a famous English writer. He wrote more than 500
books but only his novel “The Life and Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson
Crusoe” made him famous.
In his novel Daniel Defoe described the real adventures of a sailor, who lived
alone for four years on a desert island1. When his character, Robinson Crusoe, found
himself alone2 on an island, he managed to live using only the things he had on
the island. Robinson also met a man whom he called Friday. Friday became his
friend.
When the book was published in 1719, it became popular. Defoe made his story so
realistic that people believed it.
Defoe didn’t write his novel for children. But nearly every child now knows about
Robinson Crusoe and his adventures: how he learned to domesticate goats and to
make pots, how he made an umbrella and a calendar.
For writing his novel “Robinson Crusoe”, Daniel Defoe is called “the father of
English prose”3.

READING
This is a story about my Granny. She’s really the most fantastic old lady in the
world! Her real name is Elizabeth, but I call her Granny Beth! Before she moved to
the city, she lived in the country, in a large farmhouse.
Granny Beth lived alone in her house. But she didn’t feel lonely there because she
had many animals to take care of: a cow, six hens, two sheep and a cat.
My parents and I couldn’t visit her very often. But I was always happy to spend
my summer holidays with her in the country.
One day Granny Beth fell ill. She was not very seriously ill but my father said to
her: “You should move to the city and live with us.” Granny Beth thought about it
and agreed with my Dad. “All right!” she said. “I’ll move to the city.”
It was very difficult for her to say goodbye to her animals. But some kind people
from another farm promised to take care of them.
In the city Granny Beth wasn’t very happy. But one day she had an idea. There
was a large and sunny balcony in our flat. She liked it very much and decided to grow
132
some flowers there. Soon the balcony became green and colourful. But Granny Beth
wanted more.
“I’m missing my animals,” she said.
“Then why don’t you go to the country and bring them here?” I suggested. And
Granny Beth smiled.
She came back in a day or two with her cat and hens. We brought them to the bal-
cony and helped my granny to feed them.
Nowadays Granny Beth is much happier with her flowers and her animals on the
balcony. But there is still one question: “How is she going to bring her cow and sheep
to the city?”

Charlotte and Her Dog Muzzy

Poor Mrs Jonathan was left lying on the

other people rushed to help her. Nobody
saw the robber except for Charlotte and
Muzzy.
“After him, Muzzy!” said Charlotte.
They followed the robber down Royal
Street and into Belfast Road. They didn’t
get too close. But they could see Mrs Jon-
athan’s bag inside his jacket.
Halfway along Sainsbury Street the
robber stopped and looked around.
“Let’s walk and play, Muzzy!” Charlotte
told Muzzy. Behind him, the robber saw
just a small girl walking with her big dog.
“We only want to see where he goes.
We don’t want to catch him,” said Char-

A famous French writer Honoré de

Balzac [ˈɒnəreɪ də ˈbælzæk] had a strange
hobby. He liked to tell a person’s character
by his or her handwriting. He was very
proud of his hobby.
One day his friend brought him an
exercise book and said: “My dear friend!
I want to know what you think of this
boy’s character. Tell me the truth. He is
not my son.”
Balzac was very glad to demonstrate his
talent. He began to study the handwriting.
After some minutes of careful studying he
said: “All right, I’ll tell you the truth. This
boy is a bad and lazy fellow.” “ That’s very
strange,” said his friend and he smiled,
“because this is your exercise book from
when you were a boy.”

open. The dad is surprised and lookes in.
He sees his daughter holding the puppy in
her arms and cleaning its teeth with his
toothbrush. Liza doesn’t see her dad and
continues her cleaning. Liza’s dad calls his
wife. Liza’s mum comes in and lets the
puppy go. But the little girl says: “Why?
I’m sure daddy needn’t make such a fuss1

cleaned the puppy’s teeth with that tooth-
brush.”

Text 1. Teachers
We can’t imagine the world we live in without knowledge.
Almost everyone wants to know how to read, write, count and
explore many important things about life. People of all profes-
sions 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 remem-
ber their schoolteachers.
Being a teacher is a very important job. People who are intelli-
gent, 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 future.

Text 2. Computer Programmers

Computers are very important to people. We have comput-
ers at home and in offices, at schools and in banks, in shops
and in libraries. Some computers help doctors to treat people
in the hospitals and professors to teach students at the univer-
sities. 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 driv-
ing 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 start new computer viruses.
Text 3. 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.

READING

Dear Dimitris,
I’m writing my first letter in English, as I promised you. I’m in Oxford now. There
are a lot of students from different countries here. We learn English, play sports
and have fun together.
In your letter you asked me to write about my host family and my new friends.
As for my host family, they are really very nice and hospitable people. Their
names are Charlotte and Henry, and they have a son, Oliver. Charlotte is a housewife
and, like our mum, she takes care of the family and the students who live in her
house. She is friendly and tactful. Henry is a firefighter. He has a very good sense
of humour and enjoys playing jokes on his son and me. I was surprised to learn that
Charlotte and Henry do not speak any foreign languages. So I have to speak English
to them. Oliver is a boy of six, he is nice but sometimes naughty. He likes playing
football and wants to become a famous football player. I get on well with all the
members of my host family.
I have made some friends at the English Language School too. We are working
hard to improve our English. We learn English in the morning and in the afternoon,
but we don’t have any homework to do in the evening.
Next Saturday we’re travelling to London. We are going to spend two days there.
We’ll be doing sightseeing. I’m looking forward to the trip. I’ll write to you about it
in my next letter.
You can see my life here is wonderful but I miss my family and Greece.
Hugs and kisses to everyone.
Best wishes,
Kirill

How to deal with fill-in-the-gap tasks

Fill-in-the-gap tasks usually begin with: “Fill in the missing words / phrases ...”,
“Complete the sentences ...”, “Complete the text with the words ...”, “Complete the
sentences with the correct form of the word (in brackets)” “Complete the sentences with
new words formed from the words in brackets” etc.
1. Fill-in-the-gap tasks sometimes offer a word that you should use in the correct form:
Please write ... of your favourite place. (to describe). Use the context to guess the
necessary form: Please write a description of your favourite place.
2. Fill-in-the-gap tasks can also have a group of words for your choice: Jim said,
“I feel ... . I have a ... throat. I can’t go to school.” (time, bad, poor, sore).
Make sure you know all the words before you fill in the gap. Read the sentence.
Choose the words that fit best of all:
Jim said, “I feel bad. I have a sore throat. I can’t go to school.”
3. Sometimes a fill-in-the-gap task doesn’t give you a choice: When you have prob-
lems with your teeth you must see a ... .
Read the sentence and use the context and the example to guess the correct word.
Fill in the word.
Check your answer by reading the whole sentence or text. If it is not clear, revise your
answer.
