25 September

Dear Ann,

Thank you for your letter. Today is Saturday. It’s a holiday. I don’t go to school on Saturdays  and Sundays.

It’s rainy and cloudy today. But it isn’t windy. It’s warm. I like autumn. It’s my favourite season. When it’s rainy, I can listen to music and read a book. When it’s sunny and warm, we can have a picnic in the park. My dad says, “Tomorrow the weather will be fine. We’ll go to the park and have a picnic.”

My dad and my brother Jim will fly a kite (запускать воздушного змея). My mum, our dog Rex and I will play hide-and-seek (играть в прятки). We’ll have cheese and ham sandwiches and many tasty cakes with tea.

But winter will come soon. You know I don’t like winter. We don’t have picnics in winter. Ann, what is your  favourite season? What do you like to do in this season? What will you do next winter?

Write back.

Yours,

Jill Brown.

Задание 1. . Прослушайте и выберите, какое утверждение верное ( True) или неверное  (False)

1. The story of the Native Americans is one of the funniest in the history of the mankind.

2. The Indians were the original inhabitants of the American continent.

3. The Native Americans have managed to retain their identity and culture.

4. It's almost impossible to find any marks of the Indians' culture in the USA nowadays.

Задание 2.  Установите соответствие тем A–G текстам 1-6. Занесите свои ответы в таблицу. Используйте каждую букву только один раз. В задании одна тема лишняя.

 A. EASILY LEARNED

 B. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS

 C. SADLY DISAPPEARING

 D. REALLY VALUABLE

 E. RARELY BEATEN

 F. SURPRISINGLY SUCCESSFUL

 G. QUICKLY GROWING

1. Draughts (or ‘checkers’ as the Americans call it) is one of the most popular games around the world. The rules are simple. Even young children have no problem working out how to play. The top players study moves in the same way that chess players do but anyone can pick it up and have a go. Getting to a high standard takes a lot of hard work and practice but the basics are not particularly difficult.

2. Since 1997, when the game Ultima Online became popular, many thousands of people have played all kinds of games online – and the numbers are still increasing rapidly. Every year, more and more people discover the pleasures of playing over the Internet and the next generation of games consoles are being designed with that in mind. There seems to be no sign that this explosion in online games will stop any time soon.

3. It has been called the greatest phenomenon in the history of games, but when Trivial Pursuit was created by two friends in 1981, few people had any idea what a hit it would be. It was a quiz game and none of the games companies expected it to do well, until an American company became interested in it. Many millions of Trivial Pursuit games have been sold since then in 19 languages and 33 different countries.

4. Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian was chess world champion from 1963 to 1969. He dominated the game during those years and almost never lost. He was known as a player who was strong in defence and very few players got the better of him. In fact, his defensive play was so good that he was known as ‘Iron Tigran’. When he did lose, it was big news in Moscow chess circles.

 5. It seems that there have been some big changes in the British playground. Twenty years ago, traditional children’s games were played in every school across the country during the break. These days, they are quickly being replaced by hand-held games consoles and other electronic games. Before long, there is a danger that traditional games could die out. Once they are forgotten, it may be impossible to bring these enjoyable pastimes back to the playground.

6. In 1831, a farmer on the Isle of Lewis, north of mainland Scotland, discovered sets of chess pieces that dated from the middle of the 12th century. Carved from walrus tusk, it is almost impossible to put a price on these pieces because they are a unique find. There are 78 pieces in total, 67 in the British Museum and the rest in the Edinburgh National Museum. Whatever they are worth, you can be sure it’s a lot more than the average chess set.
