Control work №1. Reading and music in our life. Reading

1. Прочитайте мнения на тему «Why is reading important?». Установите соответствие между высказываниями A-F  и пронумерованными абзацами текста 1-5. Запишите свои ответы в таблицу. Используйте каждую букву только один раз. В задании есть одно лишнее высказывание.

A Reading helps us to explore the world.

B Reading develops the creative side of people.

C Reading is important in our everyday life.

D Reading is a useful and pleasant way to spend your spare time.

E Reading improves our imagination and mind.

F Without reading a person can hardly achieve much in his/her life.

1. Reading is an important part of our life. There are many adults who cannot read well enough to understand the instructions on a medicine. Understanding road or warning signs is difficult without reading well enough. Even following a map becomes a problem. Day-to-day activities can be embarrassing without understanding what is written here and there. Reading is an important skill in finding a good job. Many well-paid jobs need reading as a part of job performance. A man can’t succeed without reading.

2. Reading is important because it develops the thinking skills. Our mind needs exercise. Understanding the written word is one way our mind grows in its ability. Teaching young children to read helps them to develop their language skills. It also helps them to learn to listen. Everybody wants to talk, but few can really listen. Reading develops the imagination. TV and computer games contribute to developing our imagination, but they are more like entertainment. With reading, a person can go anywhere in the world… or even out of it! They can be a king, or an adventurer, or a princess, or… The opportunities are endless.

3. Why is reading important? Books, magazines, and even the Internet are great learning instruments which need the ability to read and understand what is read. A person who knows how to read can study any subject in any area of life they are interested in. We live in an age where we have a lot of information, but reading is the main way to take advantage of it. We get a lot of information from different spheres. It is how we discover new things. How can we do without reading then?

4. Reading is important in developing your own image. Non readers or people who are not good at reading don’t often have high opinions of themselves and their abilities. Many times they feel as if the world is against them. They fell as if they are all alone and no one supports them. They have behavior problems. They are not good at other subjects because they cannot read and understand the material. People who cannot read feel helpless and in difficult situations the often «give up».

5. Why is reading important? Reading continues to be the favourite way of spending time for a large number of people. Books are their lifelong companions and very good friends. Reading soon becomes the person’s hobby. Nothing – absolutely nothing can be compared with reading. Reading takes us to a new world and helps us to forget our problems. It is an activity that keeps us busy when we are free and results in the useful usage of time. It is one of the best ways of relaxation. The quickest and easiest way to gather yourself is to take a book, not any book – but a pleasant book and relax on the sofa. Within a few minutes you will recover from being upset or tired or bored. Reading has always been an ever interesting way of spending time and will always be.

2. Прочитайте отрывок из лекции известного дирижёра Бенджамина Зандера и выполните задания 1-8. В каждом задании обведите букву А,В илиС, соответствующую выбранному вами варианту ответа.  

Many people know the story of the two salesmen who went down to Africa in the 1900s. They were sent down to find if there was any opportunity for selling shoes. And they wrote telegrams back to Manchester. And one of them wrote: «Situation hopeless. Stop. They don’t wear shoes. » And the other one wrote: «Glorious opportunity. They don’t have any shoes yet.»

Now, there’s a similar situation in the classical music world, because there are some people who think that classical music is dying. And there are some who don’t know anything about it.

There are people who think they are absolutely mad about classical music. They adore classical music. They listen to symphonies in the car. And their children are playing musical instrument. They can’t imagine their life without classical music. That’s the first group; it’s quite a small group. Then there’s another group, bigger group. These are the people who don’t mind classical music. At home a little Vivaldi in the back-ground doesn’t do any harm. That’s the second group. Now comes the third group. These are the people who never listen to classical music. It’s just simply not part of their life. That’s probably the largest group of all.

And then there’s a very small group. These are the people who think they’re tone deaf (or unable to tell the difference between different musical notes). Amazing number of people think they’re tone deaf. Actually, they cannot be tone deaf. Nobody is tone deaf. If they were tone deaf, they couldn’t tell the difference between somebody from Texas and somebody from Rome. And the telephone. If your mother calls on the telephone and says «Hello,» you not only know who it is, you know what mood she’s in. You have a fantastic ear. Everybody has a fantastic ear. So nobody is tone deaf.

I tell you what happened to me. I was in Ireland during the Troubles ten years ago, and I was working with some Catholic and some Protestant kids. One of them came to me the next morning and he said, «You know, I’ve never listened to classical music in my life, but when you played that music…» He said, «My brother was killed last year and I didn’t cry for him. But last night when you played that piece, I was thinking only about him and I was crying.» So then I began to understand that classical music is for everybody.

They say three per cent of the population likes classical music. I say, «Everybody loves classical music – they just don’t know it yet.»

I had an amazing experience. In the year of 1984 when I was 45 years old and I’d been conducting for 20 years, I suddenly understood one important thing. The conductor of orchestra doesn’t make a sound. My picture appears on the front of the CD – but I don’t make a sound. For his power a conductor depends on his ability to make other people powerful. And that changed everything for me. I understood that my job was to make people happy. And do you know how you understand if people are happy or not, I look at their eyes. If their eyes are shining, I know I have done it.

I have a definition of success. For me it’s very simple. It’s not about having a lot of money and being famous or powerful. It’s about how many happy shining eyes I have around me.

Thank you. Shining eyes, shining eyes. Thank you.

I was twelve when I entered the unfriendly region of examinations, and through which for the next seven years I had to travel. These examinations were a great test to me. The subjects which were valued by the examiners were almost always those I liked least. I would like to be examined in history, poetry and writing essays. The examiners, on the other hand, preferred Latin and mathematics. Moreover, the questions which they asked on both these subjects were almost always those to which I was unable to suggest a satisfactory answer. I would like to be asked to say what I knew. They always tried to ask what I did not know. This sort of treatment had only one result: I did not do well in examinations.

This was especially true of my entrance examination to Harrow. The Headmaster, MrWelldon, however, took a broad-minded view of my Latin text. This was the more amazing, because I was found unable to answer a single question in the Latin paper. I wrote my name at the top of the page. I wrote down the number of the question "I". But I could not think of anything connected with it that was true. Suddenly I made some dirty marks on my test paper. I stared for two hours at these spots. And then they collected my piece of test paper with all the others and carried it up to the Headmaster's table. It was from these small signs of knowledge that MrWelldon drew the conclusion that it was enough to pass into Harrow. It showed that he was a man who did not depend upon paper demonstration.

I was placed in the third, or lowest, division of the Fourth, or bottom, Form. The names of the new boys were written in the school list in alphabetical order. As my correct name, Spencer-Churchill, began with an "S", I was in fact only two more names away from the end of the whole school.

However, by being in the lowest form I got a great advantage over the cleverer boys. They all learned Latin and Greek and things like that. But I was taught English. We were considered such silly pupils that we could learn only English. Mr Somervell taught the stupidest boys the most ignored thing - to write simple English. He knew how to do it. He taught it as no one else has ever taught it.

I learned it thoroughly. And when in after years my schoolmates who had won prizes for writing such beautiful Latin poetry and Greek epigrams had to come down again to common English, to earn their living or make their career, I did not feel myself at any difficulty. Naturally, I am in favour of boys learning English. I would make them learn English; and then I would let the clever ones learn Latin as an honour and Greek as a pleasure. But the only thing I would beat them for is not knowing English. I would beat them hard for that. (507)
