1. Dangerous shoes.

3. Angry shoppers.

4. New fashion.

5. Dress rules.

6. Wear in special areas.

A. A new kind of training shoes, with wheels in the heel, are in fashion in Wales. Many teenagers asked for them at Christmas. But the manager of the St Andrew`s Shopping Centre in Liverpool says the shoes, called ‘Heelies’, are dangerous. He says kids in ‘Heelies’ can’t enter the mall. They must take them off and walk around in their socks.

B. The manager, Gilmour Johnes, thinks there is a safety problem. Teenagers with these shoes could break a shop window or knock down an older customer. Mr. Johnes says that the rule against wheels is not new. ‘For many years we have had the rules against using rollerblades or skateboards in the centre.’

C. Many other malls also have specific dress rules for teenagers. In the USA, some malls have rules about wearing baseball caps. You mustn’t wear your cap to the side — the cap must be straight, and you mustn’t wear it low over your face. The security camera must be able to see your face.

D. Many of these rules are to stop big groups of teenagers getting in the way of shoppers. Groups of kids sometimes stand on the stairs or in the doors and customers can’t pass. Some shoppers are afraid of large groups of noisy teenagers. One mall manager said, ‘We are here to sell. If you don’t want to buy, we don’t want you here.’

A. It’s up to you to decide whether you want to steep yourself in the past, step into the future, learn ab out the living world or enjoy film and theatre. There’s something for everyone in London — art-lovers, culture vultures, thrill-seekers and anyone with a passion for history. The city boasts a wealth of theatres and museums and collections — as much culture as your feet can bear! So even if you have been to the city many times before, there’s something new to view and somewhere different to go in a city full of surprises.

C. Over 5,800 different restaurants and cuisine from more than 60 different countries await you in Britain’s capital. Come to London and eat your great meal from all the best cuisines all around the world! The experience of eating out in London is reaching new heights, with restaurants opening every week and some of the best-known names in cuisine to work here.

D. London comes alive at dark. If New York is the city that never sleeps, London doesn’t doze much either! Night-time London offers a staggering range of things to see and places to go. Time Out, London’s weekly guide to what’s on, will give you all the details you need — under useful headings like classical music, opera, jazz/funk, garage, house.

E. Hotels in London very from some of the greatest and most luxurious establishments in the world to bed and breakfasts and humble hostels — with everything in between. About 1,000 hotels of all different price ranges are spread all over the city, with the great concentration in the West End. But if you take advantage of London’s extensive public transport system and stay out of the centre it will be less expensive.

2. A really international place.

3. Governesses of rich children.

4. Textile business links.

5. A nice-sounding building.

6. The initial steps of commerce.

A. Moscow has always been a multicultural city. If we look back at its history, we will see that there were several foreign communities living in Moscow on a permanent basis. We all know about German people inhabiting the banks of the Yauza river, where little Peter, the future tsar of all Russia, ran around, made friends and got his first ideas of learning about ships and fleets. But what do we know about the British community of Moscow? Did it even exist?

B. The first ties between Russia and Britain were formed in the middle of the 16th century in the time of Ivan the Terrible. It was then that some wealthy British merchants founded the Muscovy Company which held a monopoly on trade between Britain and Russia until 1698. The building of its Moscow headquarters was granted to the company by the tsar in 1556 and can be still visited at 4, Varvarka Street, known to us now as The Old English Court.

С. Beginning from the time of Peter the Great, several talented British military men moved to Russia. Many of them served as army generals and navy admirals, defending Russian borders in different wars and battles. Among the most famous ones were Field Marshall James Bruce, Field Marshall Barclay de Tolly and Admiral Thomas Mackenzie, all of them of Scottish origin.

D. In the 18th century, British industrialists made themselves known in Russia. One of the most outstanding figures was Robert McGill, who lived in Moscow and served as an intermediary between Lancashire mill engineers and the Russian cotton industry, and built over 180 mills (cotton factories) in Russia. Robert McGill had a house in Spiridonovka Street and together with his wife Jane was a prominent member of the British community in Moscow.

E. If you talk to Moscow concert musicians who were active between the 1970s and the 1990s, they will tell you of the fantastic acoustics of the “Melodiya” recording studio at 8, Voznesensky Lane, which they lovingly called ‘kirche’, mistakenly thinking it was a German church. This building, designed in the English neo-gothic architectural style, was in fact built in 1885 by Robert McGill and is St. Andrew’s Anglican Church, which was used as a recording studio in Soviet times.

A. The Lake District, in northwest England, is a small area, but extremely beautiful, with the varied delights of soft hills and woodland and the panoramas of the great lakes. The Lake District is more often visited, both by day tourists and holidaymakers, than any other region of outstanding natural beauty in the British Isles.

B. England’s most ancient northern city lies on the River Ouse in the centre of the Vale of York between the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors. It was once the principal town of Yorkshire, and it remains the seat of the Archbishop of York. A child-friendly city, its Viking, Castle and Railway museums have plenty to engage young people as well as adults.

C. Along the north part of Trafalgar Square is the famous National Gallery. Founded in 1824, the gallery has since grown into one of the most outstanding and comprehensive collections in the world, with a list of masters ranging from Leonardo da Vinci and Rembrandt to El Greco and Van Gogh.

D. The London Coliseum famous for its richly decorated interiors was used for variety shows, musical comedies, and stage plays for many years. In 1974 its name was changed to the English National Opera. Today it is used primarily for opera as well as being the London home of the English National Ballet. When not on tour they perform regular seasons throughout the year.

E. The Mall is London’s impressive ceremonial way, a broad tree-lined avenue. The spectacular parade takes place here each June to celebrate the official Birthday of the Sovereign. Queen Elizabeth II rides down the avenue in a horse-drawn carriage. Over 1,000 officers and men are on parade, together with two hundred horses; over two hundred musicians march and play as one.

B. A Japanese student from Tokyo said, “I’ve been in Britain since April and have been living with a British family. I’ve noticed one big difference between British and Japanese families. British men do jobs like cooking, washing up and ironing. They’re jobs which I’ve never seen Japanese men do. They think it’s women’s work. But I don’t agree with it!”

C. A German student at a language school in Oxford said, “I thought Britain was a modern European country — you’ve been in the EEC for years now. So why do you still use miles,Or pints and pounds instead of kilometres, litres and kilos? And why do you still drive on the wrong side of the road?”

D. A Danish girl who works as an au pair in Liverpool said, “I came to Britain a month ago. I’ve noticed one very strange thing here. After British people have washed the dishes, they never rinse them. They just take them out of the dirty, soapy water and leave them to dry!”

E. A Swedish girl said, “I’ve watched a lot of television since I arrived two weeks ago. British television’s brilliant! But the “programmes” which I’ve enjoyed most are the advertisements. They’re very funny or very clever, or both. Back home in Sweden we don’t have any TV advertisements at all!”

6. Strangers in the Garden

A. Last night, at about three o’clock in the morning, I heard a strange noise downstairs. I got out of bed and put on my dressing gown. With my heart beating fast, I slowly
went to the top of the stairs. It sounded like there were people talking in the kitchen.

B. I didn’t know what to do. Finally, I decided to go downstairs. I made my way quietly down the stairs and listened at the kitchen door. A man asked: “Did you kill him?” and
a woman replied: “Yes, I shot him.” Then the man asked: ’’Why did you do that?” Suddenly I realised that there were not really any people in the kitchen. It was just the TV.
But why did it turn itself on in the middle of the night?

C. While I was standing in the kitchen wondering about the TV, I looked out of the window. It was dark, but I could see a figure outside. Someone was walking slowly across the
garden! He whispered something. He was talking to another person! What were they doing in my garden?

D. I was wondering what to do when they started walking towards the kitchen window. They were coming towards me! I didn’t know what to do so I grabbed a knife and waited. They
were getting closer and closer. I was so frightened. They came right up to the window, and I saw their faces. It was my neighbours, Anna and Larry!

E. They obviously were not trying to break into my house, so why were they talking in my garden in the middle of the night? I opened the kitchen door and Anna and Larry came
in. They sat down, and I made them both a cup of coffee. This is what Anna told me: “We were sleeping in our bedroom when we heard a loud noise coming from your kitchen. So
Alan and I decided to investigate. We came down to your garden, but couldn’t see any lights on.

4. Places to visit

5. Eating out

A. Los Angeles is the second largest city in the USA. It’s also home to film stars, sunny weather, tall buildings and heavy traffic. The hotels in LA are more expensive than
those in many other American cities, but they are pretty clean and safe.

B. There are many interesting places that you can visit, like Venice Beach with its street performers or Universal Studios to see how they make films. Children can visit the
Children’s Museum — ne of the most exciting museums in the world.

C. There are famous restaurants you can eat at, like the Buffalo Hub, a place packed with celebrities, or Musso and Frank’s, Hollywood’s oldest restaurant. For the most delicious
Mexican dishes at the Border Grill.

D. You can buy cheap fashionable clothes on Melrose Avenue. Do you want designer clothes? Then go to the expensive shops on Rodeo Drive. A visit there is always
unforgettable.

E. The nightlife is exciting on the Sunset Strip, an area in Hollywood with famous clubs. There you can enjoy rock’n’roll music. LA is a really modern city with something for
everyone. It’s noisy
and crowded, but it’s also fascinating.

1. Computer virus.

2. Game addiction.

3. A crime.

4. An important message.

6. Using neighbours’ wi-fi.

B. Seventeen-year-old Tan Luo was an online-game fan and played games at all hours of the day. He didn’t have time to study and wasn’t able to complete his course at the college.
In the end, his parents were very worried and they disconnected their Internet access so Tan couldn’t go online.

C. However, this didn’t stop him. He knew his neighbours had Internet access, so he used theirs. He was able to connect to their wireless Internet network, or ‘wi-fi’, and
continued playing online games from his own home.

D. The neighbours noticed Tan was using their wi-fi one night. They told him to stop, but he didn’t, and so they called the police. In Singapore it’s a crime to use a wi-fi
network that isn’t yours. So, the young wi-fi thief had to go to court.

E. In court, Tan said he was very sorry. The judge didn’t sent him to prison. Instead, he sent Tan to a boys’ hostel for nine months. At the hostel, he will do sports and other
activities, but he won’t be allowed to play video games. Furthermore, he won’t be able to use the Internet for the next year.

1. Making money.

2. Just like real life.

3. Old customs disappear.

4. Scare yourself.

5. The first theme park.

6. See Ancient Egypt.

A. For many years, it has been a tradition in many parts of the world to hold a fair during public holidays. During religious festivals, there was a carnival atmosphere in many
towns as fairgrounds appeared for a few days for people just to have fun. But slowly these fairs have been replaced by more permanent sites, where people can have fun all the year round.

B. Opened in 1955, Disneyland in California is regarded by many as the original fun park. Visitors were greeted by characters from various Disney films and the procession of
Mickey Mouse and his friends is still a beautiful sight for people of all ages.

C. Nowadays, such parks can be found all over the world: indeed, it is becoming hard to avoid them. Special events, such as unforgettable firework displays, are organised in
order to bring in the crowds. Creating a theme park involves a lot of money and the managers cannot afford to relax.

D. A trip to a fun park is not complete without something to really scare you. A roller coaster is nothing special these days. For real thrills, there’s ‘Oblivion’, at Alton
Towers in England, which takes you headfirst into a dark hole filled with smoke. It doesn’t last long, but three minutes of nightmare is enough.

E. For people who don’t like frightening rides there are plenty of other ways to spend the time. At the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas, there is a glass copy of the tomb of
Tutankhamun. There are shops and restaurants and imitation temples, but-best of all there is the possibility of a boat trip down the Nile.

2. Hot clouds of gas.

3. Moving to the west.

4. Giving out light.

5. Orbiting round stars.

6. The nearest star.

A. Over millions of years, hot clouds of gas called ‘nebulae’ grow until they explode and form huge, blazing balls of fire. This is how stars are born. Our own sun is a star.
Eventually, like all stars, it will run out of fuel and die. Don ’t worry though — this won’t happen for another 5 billion years!

B. Stars are sources of light. This is the reason they shine so brightly in the sky. The moon, planets and comets also shine, but they don’t give out their own light. They just
reflect it from the sun.

C. Stars are very, very far away. In fact, when their light reaches our eyes, we sometimes see them as they were thousands of years ago. Our sun is the nearest star to Earth, but
it is still about 160 million km away! It is part of the Milky Way galaxy, a white band of stars that stretches across the night sky.

D. Constellations are groups of stars. If you draw lines between them (and use lots of imagination) they sometimes look like objects, animals or people. The ancient Greeks
thought that Orion looked like a giant hunter with a sword attached to his belt.

E. As the earth moves around the sun, we see the constellations in different positions in the sky at different times of the year. In the same way, the whole sky seems to move
towards the west as the earth rotates on its axis throughout the night.

A. Liza Smith is a successful British singer. Her smiling face appears on the covers of international magazines, and every year she travels to many different parts of the
world to perform concerts to millions of fans.

B. However, life used to be very different for this bright young star from Bristol. She lived in a small terraced house with her parents and three brothers. They didn’t have a
lot of money and she worked as a cleaner to make ends meet. She used to buy clothes from second-hand shops.

C. In her free time she used to sing in the college choir. She learnt the words to every pop song and people hired her to sing at parties. Her friends liked her voice a lot
and persuaded her to send a cassette to a record company. That’s how it all started and her life changed completely.

D. Today Liza lives in a large house with a big garden just outside London with her husband and her daughter. She looks very elegant in her chic designer clothes. She goes to
the gym every day to keep her body in shape. In her free time she enjoys going to the theatre or to parties.

E. Liza’s lifestyle has changed a lot since those days in Liverpool. I think I’m very lucky to lead the life I lead today. It’s not easy, though, because I don’t have the
privacy that I used to have. Still, I have a lovely family and a very promising career. What else could I ask for?’ she says.

1. The never-sleeping country.

2. The city having two parts.

3. The golden city.

4. The sunshine state.

5. The cheap and free city.

6. A land of song.

A. Some visitors say that London is a very expensive city, but there are a few things to do which do not cost a lot of money. Most museums are free and
give guided tours as well as lectures. The National Theatre next to the Royal Festival Hall also has free concerts in the foyer every evening and on
Saturday lunchtimes. Some cinemas are cheaper on Mondays; others sell half-price tickets before 6 pm.

B. Florida was bought from the Spanish in 1819. It is the southernmost state on the mainland and has a long coastline on the Atlantic Ocean. Oranges grow
all year round even in winter, when the weather is very cold further north. The warm climate has made Florida an important vacation resort. More than ten
million visitors come to Miami Beach every year. There are also many theme parks and other entertainment.

C. Spain is famous for its unusual lifestyle. For example, Spanish people usually have lunch at 2.30 pm and dinner at 10.00 pm. People don’t usually go to
bed before midnight. At 10.00 on Friday and Saturday nights the bars and restaurants are full. Spanish night-life really starts at mid night. A lot of
disco-bars don’t close before 6.00 in the morning. On the east coast of Spain some discos open at 10.00 on Sunday mornings!

D. The Welsh have been famous for their singing for centuries. If you go to any Welsh rugby match, you will hear supporters singing in harmony. Male-voices
choirs are found throughout Wales and many Welsh people have become famous opera singers. The reputation of Wales as a centre for music attracts musicians
from all over the world to its various festivals.

E. Budapest has a population of over two million people. The River Danube divides the city into two parts. On the west bank there are the woods and hills
of Buda and the old town. On the east ban k there is the bigger and more modem Pest, the business and shopping centre. From Buda there are wonderful views
of Pest and the river. Six bridges join Buda and Pest. For nearly a thousand years Buda and Pest w ere two towns. Then in 1873 they joined and became one
city, Budapest.

1. The long-distance teacher.

A. Five-year-old Mark Harris from Bristol fell 70 feet from a bridge into the river Avon when he was running after his dog. The river carried him towards a
waterfall and threw him onto some rocks. Fortunately, three older boys who were fishing saw Mark. They quickly pulled him out and rang the police.

B. In April this year, Garry Smith was climbing Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain, when he lost his way and spent three days in sub-zero temperatures.
He was in trouble. He fell off a rock and hurt his knees. He could not move. Mountain rescue teams went out to look for Garry, and found him at 1:00 in the
morning. A helicopter took him to hospital, where he needed several operations.

C. Twenty-one days after Bill and Sarah Butler left Panama in their yacht, they met some whales. They started to hit the side of the boat and suddenly Bill
and Sarah heard water. Two minutes later the yacht was sinking. They jumped into the life raft and watched the boat go under the water. For twenty days
they had tins of food, and bottles of water. After fifty days at sea their life raft was beginning to break up. Suddenly a fishing boat saw them and picked
them up.

D. Thirteen-year-old Thomas Gregory from London is the youngest person to swim the English Channel. He swam 31 miles in just 11 hours 55 minutes. He drank
hot tomato soup because he felt so cold in the water. Often he could not see anything because the sun was shining in his eyes, and that was the worst
thing. He was very pleased when he finally arrived on the beach in France, where his parents were waiting for him.

E. Pop music in Britain is influenced by music from all over the world. Many teenagers in our survey liked reggae, which comes from Jamaica. Boys also
enjoyed dancing and listening to Black-American rap. Some music in Britain is a mixture of styles. Pop music is also influencing traditional music.
Recently some young musicians of Asian origin have started to mix bhangra (traditional music from the Punjab region) with Western pop.

1. Tomorrow’s vegetables.

2. Environment in danger.

3. Additions to your food.

4. Genetically modified food.

5. Fast food.

6. Unhealthy eating habits.

A. Fast food and packaging come together. When you have eaten the beef burger, you throw away the packaging and somebody will then burn or bury it. This is
clearly a problem. Fast food also contributes to global warming. In Brazil, 12 million acres of forest were cut down to build farms. Farmers use this land
to grow soya beans and soya is given to the cows that become the beef in your beefburger. Fewer forests mean more global warming.

B Traditional methods of cooking and eating are disappearing, and are being replaced by fast food and ready-prepared meals. As a result, people today
(especially children) have too much sugar, too many sweet drinks, too much white bread. This makes people’s level of blood glucose go up, causing
tiredness, nervousness and headaches. Among schoolchildren it can also cause low concentration and bad behaviour.

C. A lot of fast food contains ingredients that have been changed by scientists to be different: the tomatoes in the tomato sauce, the flour in the bread.
How is it possible that you can buy a bright red tomato in Moscow, that comes from Cyprus, that is still fresh after four weeks? But the changes are not
always bad. Some plants can be modified to provide more vitamin C, for example.

D. Not many children like vegetables. It has been proved that eating vegetables in childhood helps to protect you against serious illness in later life. So
yesterday chocolate-flavoured carrots went on sale in Britain as part of a campaign to encourage children to eat vegetables. The range of products also
includes cheese-and-onion flavoured cauliflower, pizza-flavoured sweeetcorn, and peas that taste like chewing-gum.

E. You should expect to find a lot of chemical ingredients in fast food. None of them are good for your health, but not all of them are bad. Chlorine is
used to make bread white. Cochineal (made from dried insects) is used to make things red. However, more research is needed to find out exactly how these
chemicals will affect our health in years to come.

1. World’s strangest name.

2. Famous people’s names.

3. The name of the computer.

4. The names children dislike.

5. Unusual names.

6. The importance of names.

A. Your name is extremely significant. It’s how you identify yourself. It’s how other people identify you. Elton John was born Reginald Kenneth Dwight. Can
you imagine someone famous with a name like that? He had to change it. Marilyn Monroe sounds so much more glamorous than Norma Jean Baker.

So parents make one of the most important decisions in the lives of their children – giving them a name.

B. Some people choose names because they are fashionable. Other parents do the opposite and call their children strange names, or they even invent names.
People who choose strange names for their children want to show how special they are. However, the children are not always happy with their parents’
choice. David Bowie’s son found the name Zowie so embarrassing that he changed it to Joe.

C. These days it’s fashionable to give your child the name of a place that is important to you: Victoria and David Beckham decided to call their son
Brooklyn because they were in New York when they discovered that Victoria was going to have a baby. Madonna named her daughter Lourdes after the town in
France, the ex-US-President Bill Clinton named his daughter Chelsea after a part of London that he and his wife liked.

D. A woman, Mrs Bennet, was in hospital after the birth of her son. She was trying to decide what to call her son, when she walked past a door. It had the
name ‘KING’ on it. That’s a good name, she thought. A little later, she walked past another door, and this time she saw the name ‘NOSMO’. Interesting, she
thought. But she liked it, too, and so her son was named Nosmo King Bennet. It was only six months later that she discovered her terrible mistake.

2. Things to see.

3. The roof of the world

4. The place suggested seeing.

5. The destroyed house.

6. Pilotless aircraft.

A. If you are bored with beaches, try Alaska. Our trip to America’s largest and most northerly state was one of the greatest experiences of my life. We
entered a different world. The scenery with its mountains ‘and volcanoes was spectacular, particularly the dramatic Columbia Glacier, over 90 metres high.
We. spent our final day in Anchorage, Alaska’s largest city.

B. Yesterday afternoon a 35-year-old housewife escaped death when a tree blew and fell onto her house, completely destroying it. It was windy. She heard a
strange noise coming from the tree. Suddenly the wind blew a little stronger, and she watched it crash onto the roof. The Bonnet family are staying with
their friends while their house is rebuilt.

C. The third largest city in the United States, Chicago, is on the shore of Lake Michigan. Two rivers, the Chicago and the Calumet, run through the city,
and canals link them with the Mississippi River, which flows down to the Gulf of Mexico. Ships can also sail from Chicago through the Great Lakes to the
Atlantic Ocean. The climatic conditions of the city are very specific, because strong winds blow through it.

E. Last year I went to Spain for my holiday. I spent the first week in Seville, and then I took a train to Barcelona, where Г spent another ten days. It is
a beautiful city and I had a marvellous time. I stayed in a very expensive hotel right in the centre, but I didn’t mind spending a lot of money because it
is a wonderful place and very convenient. My brother recommended it; he goes to Spain a lot and he never stays anywhere else.

1. Out-of-town shopping.

2. Bargain hunters.

3. The best shopping street.

4. A convenient way of paying.

5. Internet shopping.

6. The key to success.

A. Mary has already started doing her Christmas shopping on-line. She usually spends about £300 on presents and pays for them on her debit card. She is
buying food from supermarket shopping services and has ordered books and CDs from on-line bookshops. Buying on-line saves her a lot of money, and it’s a
lot nicer staying at home than having to go out in the High Street.

B. A recent survey has shown that the busiest shopping street in the world is in Warsaw. It’s called Nowy Swiat, which means New World. An incredible
15,000 Poles walk down this main street every hour. It is a lovely place to shop. It is now possible to buy almost everything in Warsaw. There are a lot of
shops from the West, but the interesting thing is that Polish manufacturers are now producing high quality goods.

C. Many small street and comer shops are closing because people prefer to drive to shopping complex outside town. There they can park their cars without
any problems and do all their shopping in one place. In a British shopping complex, you usually find a supermarket, a branch of most of the chain-stores,
some smaller shops, and a few cafes. Most of the new shopping complexes are built near big roads.

D. Mail-order shopping has become very popular because it saves time. Shoppers use credit cards to pay for something over the telephone after they have
seen it advertised in a mail-order catalogue, on TV, or in a newspaper or magazine. A number of mail-order companies accept phone orders twenty-four hours
a day and most have toll-free numbers.

E. Many Americans like sales. They shop at stores that sell goods at a discount. An item on sale can cost as little as hall the normal price. Sales are
advertized in newspapers, on radio on TV, or by mail. Stores compete with each other by reducing their prices and staying open in the evening. Many arc
open seven days a week and sometimes until 10.00 at night.

1. Sports and money.

2. The riskiest sports.

3. The most popular sport.

4. Sports at school.

5. Young, sporting and rich.

6. Sporting inventions.

A. According to recent statistics, the sport that causes most injuries is rugby, and football is a close second. Despite the popularity of these games, and
although we teach school children to play them, they injure more people per 1,000 than motor-racing, skiing, or scuba-diving. Of course, people do get hurt
in ‘adventure sport s’ and the most dangerous is climbing, which kills eight people a year.

B. Britain does not often produce sportsmen or sportswomen who are successful in world sporting championship s, but it has been good at inventing sports
and writing the rules of games. Go lf was first played in Scotland in the fifteenth century. Cricket was first played in England in the sixteenth century.
Nineteenth-century team sports, such as football, rugby and hockey, were first played in British public schools.

C. Sport today’ means big business for both players and sponsors. Sporting events like the World Cup, which has a TV audience of 45 billion people, make
huge amounts of money. Companies like Coca Cola and Adidas have paid more than $30 million to sponsor a sports event. The y know that people all over the
world will see their names and logos at the sports stadiums and on participants’ clothes.

D. Children are encouraged to participate in sports at an early age. There are children’s baseball, football, and basketball team s in almost every
community. The rivalry between high schools and colleges in sporting events goes right through the school year from football in September to track and
field in June. Cheerleaders and bands lead the supporters in rooting for their home team.

E. Many top stars make a fortune during their sporting careers. Tiger Woods, the professional golfer, was only 23 years old when he had already earned more
than $5 million. He had won eight tournaments in his career by that time, including the US Masters which he won in 1997. He reached the position of the
world’s top player in the shortest time ever — just 42 weeks. Now he is sponsored by Nike, the sportswear company.

1. Taking English abroad.

2. The rise of America.

3. The French influence.

4. The expansion of learning.

5. Orthographic difference.

6. The global language.

A. A billion people speak English, two-thirds of the world’s scientists write in English, and 85 per cent of the world’s electronic information is stored
in English. One result is that the British are terribly lazy about learning other languages. The reasons for the popularity of English are either lost in
history, or something to do with the superpower on the other side of the Atlantic.

B. English has many similarities with Romance languages, whose origin is Latin. The words like government, parliament, court, legal, army, crown, state,
country, power, and people came to England with the French-speaking Normans. Notice that the word:, are associated with power: Norman-French was used as
the language of government. Words of Latin origin are usually longer than words of Germanic origin.

C. The period from the Renaissance to the present day has seen many new ideas and inventions, especially in science and technology. As new things are
invented, new words have to be created. Often these new words are created from existing Greek or Latin words put together in new ways. There are now
thousands of such words in English. Just think of telephone, television, microscope, and thermometer.

D. Today, there are some differences in vocabulary, spelling, and pronunciation between American and British English. Sometimes, the difference in spelling
is because Americans wanted to make things simpler, so that a word would be spelled the way it is pronounced. Noah Webster, founder of one of the most
famous American English dictionaries, decided to eliminate from a won I any letters that were not pronounced (honor — honour, theater — theatre).

E. During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, British navigators sailed across the seas with the aim of extending Britain’s power and prosperity.
They colonized new territories around the world, taking their language with them. In many cast the process of bringing ‘civilisation’ to the existing
peoples of these lands was accompanied by cruelty and injustice.

2. Social Concerns.

4. Part-Time Work.

6. Helping at Home.

B. Nearly all teenagers claim they help with the housework. But most admit they only do it because they have to.

C. Two thirds of those who were interviewed take part regularly in one or more sporting activities. Swimming is very popular with both sexes, while more
than 45 per cent of boys play football.

D. Money is seen as a problem by most teenagers. Without it they can’t buy clothes or gadgets, or go to concerts, cinemas or discos. The majority of girls
spend their pocket money on clothes; half the boys spend it on gadgets. Three quarters of all teenagers try to save at least some money.

E. Most teenagers get along with their parents quite well. Although a lot of teenagers believe their parents are too strict, most agree that their parents
offer help and support in times of crisis. When there are arguments, however, they are usually about what time they should come home at night, where they
are going, and who they are going with.

1. Eat out.

2. Living It up after Dark.

3. Shop till You Drop.

4. Take a Capital Break.

5. Room at the Top.

6. Going out in London.

A. It’s up to you to decide whether you want to steep yourself in the past, step into the future, learn ab out the living world or enjoy film and theatre.
There’s something for everyone in London — art-lovers, culture vultures, thrill-seekers and anyone with a passion for history. The city boasts a wealth of
theatres and museums and collections — as much culture as your feet can bear! So even if you have been to the city many times before, there’s something new
to view and somewhere different to go in a city full of surprises.

C. Over 5,800 different restaurants and cuisine from more than 60 different countries await you in Britain’s capital. Come to London and eat your great
meal from all the best cuisines all around the world! The experience of eating out in London is reaching new heights, with restaurants opening every week
and some of the best-known names in cuisine to work here.

D. London comes alive at dark. If New York is the city that never sleeps, London doesn’t doze much either! Night-time London offers a staggering range of
things to see and places to go. Time Out, London’s weekly guide to what’s on, will give you all the details you need — under useful headings like classical
music, opera, jazz/funk, garage, house.

E. Hotels in London very from some of the greatest and most luxurious establishments in the world to bed and breakfasts and humble hostels — with
everything in between. About 1,000 hotels of all different price ranges are spread all over the city, with the great concentration in the West End. But if
you take advantage of London’s extensive public transport system and stay out of the centre it will be less expensive.

3. Extra Services.

A. Superior 5 Hotel, set in a beautiful, unspoiled, seafront location amongst the green lawns gardens which run down a fine sandy beach, with crystal clear
sea water. Its warm family atmosphere, numerous facilities, excellent food and friendly service will make your stay a most enjoyable one. Another nice
sandy beach is just 200 meters away. Shops, bars, restaurants etc can be found within 200 metres from the hotel. A local bus service is available to the
resort centre or into the nearby bustling resort of Ayia Napa (10 kilometres).

B. The hotel offers large swimming pool with swim-up pool bar serving food and snacks. Extensive grass or pavement sun terraces with sunloungers and
umbrellas are also available. The hotel boasts tennis courts, children’s playground, games room with table tennis, snooker, video games. Ample parking is
at your service.

2. School uniform.

4. Free time.

5. Clothes and looks.

6. Pubs and clubs.

A. British teenagers spend most of their time at school. Students in Britain can leave school at 16 (year 11). This is also the age when most students take
their first important exams, GCSEs. They take between five and ten subjects and that means a lot of studying. They are spending more time on homework than
teenagers have done before.

B. Visit almost any school in Britain and the first thing you’ll notice is the school uniform. Although school uniform has its advantages, by the time most
teenagers are 15 or 16 they are tired of wearing it. When there is more than one school in a town, a school uniform can make differences and rivalries
between schools worse.

C. Music is the number one interest for British teens. But they certainly don’t all like the same music! UK garage, hip-hop and new metal are all popular.
Teenagers love going out too. However, finding somewhere to go isn’t always easy. Pubs and clubs have strict rules for under 18-year-olds in Britain. It’s
no surprise that British teenagers spend more free time online than European or American teens and use chatrooms to make a new friend.

D. In Britain, teenagers judge you by the shirt or trainers you are wearing. Thirty per cent of British teenagers love Nike 150s (trainers that cost $150),
but not for sport — for posing!

E. Fifty per cent of teenagers in Britain say they have been bullied because of their race, looks, accent, intelligence or for no reason at all. Sixteen
teenagers in Britain have serious problems every year because of bullying. The authorities are trying to find the solution.

1. Perfect for a quiet holiday.

2. Land of nature wonders.

3. A visit to the zoo.

4. Perfect for an active holiday.

5. Difficult start.

6. Bad for animals.

A. The mountains of Scotland (also called the Highlands) are а wild and beautiful part of Europe. A golden eagle flies over the mountains. A deer walks
through the silence of the forest. Salmon and trout swim in the clean, pure water of the rivers. Some say that not only fish swim in the deep water of Loch
Ness. Speak to the people living by the Loch. Each person has a story of the monster, and some have photographs.

B. Tresco is a beautiful island with no cars, crowds or noise — just flowers, birds, long sandy beaches and the Tresco Abbey Garden. John and Wanda welcome
you to the Island Hotel, famous for delicious food, comfort and brilliant service. You will appreciate superb accommodation, free saunas and the indoor
swimming pool.

C. The Camel and Wildlife Safari is a unique mixture of the traditional and modern. Kenya’s countryside suits the Safari purposes exceptionally well.
Tourists will have a chance to explore the bush country near Samburu, to travel on a camel back or to sleep out under the stars. Modern safari vehicles are
always available for those who prefer comfort.

D. Arrival can be the hardest part of a trip. It is late, you are road-weary, and everything is new and strange. You need an affordable place to sleep,
something to eat and drink, and probably a way to get around. But in general, it’s a wonderful trip, full of wonderful and unusual places. Whether it is
the first stop on a trip or the fifth city visited, every traveller feels a little overwhelmed stepping onto a new street in a new city.

E. No zoo has enough money to provide basic habitats or environments for all the species they keep. Most animals are put in a totally artificial
environment, isolated from everything they would meet in their natural habitat. Many will agree that this isolation is harmful to the most of zoo
inhabitants, it can even amount to cruelty.

1. Old word — new meaning.

2. Not for profit.

3. For body and mind.

4. Generosity to taste.

5. New word — old service.

6. For vsrious travellers’ needs.

A. The residents of the southern United States are particularly warm to visitors, ready to welcome them to their homes and to the South in general. Food
places an important role in the traditions of southern hospitality. A cake or other delicacy is often brought to the door of a new neighbor as a means of
introduction. When a serious illness occurs, neighbors, friends, and church members generally bring food to that family as a form of support and
encouragement.

B. Destination spas exist for those who only can take a short term trip, but still want to develop healthy habits. Guests reside and participate in the
program at a destination spa instead of just visiting it for a treatment or pure vacation. Typically over a seven-day stay, such facilities provide a
program that includes spa services, physical fitness activities, wellness education, healthy cuisine and special interest programming.

C. When people travel, stay in a hotel, eat out, or go to the movies, they rarely think that they are experiencing many-sided, vast and very diverse
hospitality industry. The tourism industry is very challenging for those who work there, as they should be able to meet a wide variety of needs and to be
flexible enough to anticipate them. The right person to help us feel at home likes working with the public, and enjoys solving puzzles.

D. five years ago, with the help of friends and family, Frederick Kühne founded Hospitality Club as a general-purpose Internet-based hospitality exchange
organization. Now, it is one of the largest hospitality networks with members in 256 countries. This is a completely free organization, which involves no
money. The core activity is the exchange of accommodation, when hosts offer their guests the possibility to stay free at their homes.

E. To the ancient Greeks and Romans, hospitality was a divine right. The host was expected to make sure the needs of his guests were seen to. In the
contemporary West, hospitality is rarely associated with generously provided care and kindness to whoever is in need or strangers. Now it is only a service
that includes hotels, casinos, and resorts, which offer comfort and guidance to strangers, but only as part of a business relationshi

1. Weather considerations.

2. Joys of biking.

4. Meeting the locals.

5. Beware of thieves.

A. If you want to see Europe on $45 a day you might prefer to stay at hostels and shop at farmers’ markets, but you definitely will not be able to do it
without the help of a bike as it is one of the most economical ways to see Europe. But most bikers choose to pedal for the sheer joy of it. Just imagine
riding up a beautiful mountain road, going to the very top, hearing birds singing in the treetops, and enjoying a well-earned and glorious downhill run.

B. The most important thing to do before you go for a long ride is to learn which tools to bring for basic repair work, such as patching a flat. If
possible, first take a weekend camping trip with everything you’ll need with you. If you don’t already know how to fix your bike, you can ask about classes
at your local bike shop. Although you can buy a good touring bike in Europe, you’re better off bringing a bike that you’re sure is the right fit for you as
well as your own racks and panniers.

C. Expect rain and bring good bikers’ rain equipment. You’ll also be exposed to the sun, so plan on using plenty of sunscreen. Even if you never ride at
night, you should bring a back light for long and unavoidable tunnels. Always wear a helmet as well as biking gloves to guard against unsightly road rash.
Beware of the silent biker who might be right behind you, and use hand signals before stopping or turning. Stay off the freeways; smaller roads are nicer
for biking, anyway.

D. Use a bike lock to secure your bike and never leave your pump, bag or laptop on your bike if you’re going to step away, even for a moment. Keep your
bike inside whenever possible. At hostels, ask if there is a locked bike room, and, if not, ask for a place to put your bike inside overnight. Remember
that hotels and many pensions don’t really have rules against taking a bike up to your room. It is advised just to do it quietly so the owners and other
guests aren’t disturbed.

E. The most rewarding aspect of bicycling in Europe is having the chance to get to know and communicate with new people. Europeans love bicycles, and they
are often genuinely impressed when they see a tourist who rejects the view from a tour-bus window in favor of riding through their country on two wheels.
Your bike provides an instant topic for conversation, the perfect bridge over cultural and language barriers.
