Busy Day
Let me tell you what happened once when my dear Uncle Podger decided to hang a picture on the wall. He told us not to 32 and just watch him do it. He said he would do it by himself. Well, he came up to the picture which was waiting to be put up in the dining room and took it. But suddenly it fell down and the glass 33 into pieces and he cut his finger. He started to 34 his handkerchief but couldn’t find it because he had put it in his coat and none of us knew where his coat was.
“Six of you!” Uncle Podger exclaimed, “and you cannot find the coat that I put down only five minutes ago!” But then he got up from his chair and found that he had been sitting on his coat the whole time. “Oh, you can stop your 35. I’ve found it myself!”
Then after an hour was spent in tying up his finger Uncle Podger wondered where the hammer had disappeared to. And while everybody was trying to get the hammer he was standing on the chair saying: “Well, I want to know if you are going to 36 me here all evening!”
Finally the hammer was found, but we noticed that the nail which he had prepared was lost. And, of course, Uncle Podger didn’t keep 37 while he was waiting for another nail to be brought. We heard all he had to say about our habit of losing all the things he needed.
When the picture was hanging on the wall at last, everybody looked very 38, all except Uncle Podger, who was lively as ever. Aunt Maria remarked that if Uncle Podger wanted to do a job like that again, she would spend a week with her mother until it was over.

To Hear a Child
I believe in patience. I live as a volunteer residential counselor in a small group home. These boys have brought joy and happiness into my life; they have made me laugh and made me proud. However, they have also challenged me, made me angry and tested my patience.
Each day we start anew, going about a 32______ routine. I drive them to school, pick them up, cook for them and help with homework. We spend the evenings 33______ about what happened during the day. I meet their teachers and study for tests with them. They are the last people I see each night and the first ones I hear in the morning. They have become a 34______ of my life. I am twenty-two and am beginning to understand the love of a parent.
I could not have come this far without patience. They do not think like miniature adults and it is not fair to expect them to. 35______ my expectations of them are high, I must remember that so much of what they see and understand is for the first time. First love, first failed test, first time feeling the need to break away from the nest. I must have patience with them, because there is still a child within that comes out when I least expect it.
This world is a fast-paced, fast-food, fast-internet place. 36______, no matter how fast things move, children will be children. I believe they will mature quicker and with more tools if I am patient. I see it in their eyes. Over time, sad eyes can glisten again, but only if I am 37______ of the fact that it takes them longer to get somewhere.
I see around them a world that expects too much of them. They come 38______ too many things that give them too much sadness. They listen to me, respect me and understand reason but not always when I want them to. This opportunity has given me wisdom but only when I was patient enough to hear a child.

It
is well known that one form of energy can be changed into
another. A waterfall may serve as an example. Water falling from its
raised position, energy changes from potential to kinetic
energy. The energy of falling water is generally used to turn the
turbines of hydroelectric stations. The turbines in their turn drive
the electric generators, the latter producing electric energy. Thus,
the mechanical energy of falling water is turned into electric
energy. The electric energy, in its turn, may be transformed into any
other necessary form.
When an
object loses its potential energy, that energy is turned into kinetic
energy. Thus, in the above-mentioned example when water is falling
from its raised position, it certainly loses its potential energy,
that energy is changed into kinetic energy.
We
have already seen that energy of some kind must be employed
to generate the electric current. Generally speaking, the
sources of energy usually employed to produce current are either
chemical, as in the battery, or mechanical, as in the
electromagnetic generator. Chemical sources of current having a
limited application, the great quantities of electric energy
generated today come from various forms of mechanical energy.
The
rising standards of modern civilization and growing industrial
application of the electric current result in an
increasing need of energy. Every year we need more and more
energy. We need it to do a lot of useful things that are done by
electricity. However, the energy sources of the
world are decreasing while the energy needs of the world are
increasing. These needs will continue to grow as more motors
and melted metals are used in
industry
and more electric current is employed in everyday life. As a result,
it is necessary to find new sources of energy.
The sun
is an unlimited source of energy. However, at present, only a little
part of solar energy is being used directly. How can we employ solar
energy directly to produce
useful energy? This is a question which has interested scientists
and inventors for a long time. Lavoisier and other great scientists
of the past melted metals with the help of solar furnaces. Today,
solar furnaces illustrate just one of
the numerous ways to harness the sun. Using semiconductors,
scientists, for example, have transformed solar energy into
electric
energy.

Task 3-9.2.
Task 1.1.
Speaker A. I try to care about our planet. Some people argue that it’s impossible for an individual to affect major changes, but I disagree as there’re many things everyone can do to help our planet. Let’s start with our homes. Encouraging your family to recycle regularly is a good thing to start with. Every glass bottle you recycle saves enough energy to run a TV for an hour, while recycling an aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours! It’s not difficult to turn out the lights when you leave a room or use re-useable containers for your lunches.
Speaker В. My name is Walton and I’m from the USA. I’m personally concerned about our environment pollution. I try to protect the environment, to preserve it and leave it clean and undamaged for the next generations who are at risk of not being able to leave their homes due to the high city pollution. Yet now, in my native city (Boston) the smog has increased to such a threatening level that my family and I had to move, because the air was harmful to the health of my 4-year-old son.
Speaker С. In my country, England, there is hardly a part of it that is within its natural state. The typical English countryside, the hills and fields, have all been shaped by generations of cultivation. In fact, taking the planet as a whole there is hardly a part of it that humans have not changed. I fear that by our pollution humans are changing the places where they do not live and where they live. Deserts are becoming hotter, arctic ice is melting and wherever you look you can see the ugly footprint of humanity.
Speaker D. Of course we should care more about our planet water supplies. When you use water wisely, you help the environment. You save water for fish and animals. You help preserve drinking water supplies as well. You save the energy that your water supplier uses to move water to you and the energy your family uses to heat your water. When you use water wisely, you save money as your family pays for the water you use. So if kids start learning to use water wisely today, they will be helping themselves in the future.
Speaker E. My name is Susan and I’m 17 years old. I think the earth is the home we all live in but many people simply don’t care. I get depressed by all those warnings that we hear daily, acid rain, global warming and on and on. It is likely that there will always be some people who litter in towns and in the country, despite fines and knowledge of the environmental consequences. You cannot influence the way other people care for our planet and that makes me very sad.
Speaker F. I suggest we should use all resources in the most efficient way possible. A green home will be a good solution here as it helps to conserve energy as well as water. Waste and pollution will be decreased too. A green home protects the environment by using renewable solar energy. Solar panels on the roof of a home collect sunlight, which is then converted into power to heat the home and run the home equipment. So a green home will save energy as well as money in addition to having other health benefits.
A−7: Let’s start with our homes. Encouraging your family to recycle regularly is a good
thing to start with.
B−5: I had to move, because the air was harmful to the health of my 4-year-old son.
C−3: I fear that by our pollution humans are changing the places where they do not live
and where they live.
D−4: Water wisely, you help the environment. You save water for fish and animals. You
help preserve drinking water supplies as well.
E−1: I get depressed by all those warnings that we hear daily, acid rain, global warming
and on and on.
F−6: So a green home will save energy as well as money in addition to having other health
benefits.
Task 2.1. A-2, B-1, C-2, D-2, E-3, F-3, G- 2
A. The client is going to London this week. — А неверно
Слышим I need to fly to London next Monday and I’d like to make reservations for a round trip ticket. Выражение next Monday — маячок, что высказывание А неверно, ведь в нем говорится про this week.
B. The client has chosen an evening flight.- В верно
Слышим I’d rather leave at 9 p.m. — очевидно, что высказывание В верно, несмотря на дальнейшие слова I have to get to London early in the morning, as early as possible, которые легко могут сбить с толку.
C. The client is flying to London for sightseeing.- С неверно
Слышим It’s a business trip, you know, выходит, что цель поездки — бизнес, а высказывание С неверно. В конце записи прозвучит I might want to see some sights or spend the night at the theater, фраза see some sights — ловушка, герой диалога предполагает, что ему захочется это сделать, но не уверен, поэтому использует модальный глагол might. В данном случае, see some sights — лишь возможный вариант досуга героя, но точно не причина его поездки.
D. The ticket price seems okay for the client.- D неверно
Предложение с подвохом! Сначала, мы узнаем, что цена оказалась выше ожиданий мужчины ($440 вместо $400), потом слышим его негодование That’s ridiculous! It’s too much! После убеждений продавца он произносит Okaaay, if I don’t have any other choices… Слово okay звучит, но означает ли это, что цена для него действительно okay? Нет, мы слышим его недовольство в обеих фразах, значит высказывание D неверно.
E. It’s the shortest possible flight to London.- Not Stated.
На вопрос What’s the flying time? мы слышим только 6 hours и больше ничего. Информации о том, как долго длятся другие рейсы, нет. Получается, что у нас недостаточно данных, чтобы подтвердить или опровергнуть высказывание, выбираем ответ Not Stated.
F. The client dislikes London airports except for Heathrow.
Мужчина действительно задает вопрос про аэропорт What’s the destination airport? и слышит в ответ, что прилетает в Heathrow, как раз, как в нашем высказывании. Дальше он явно радуется этому факту That’s good news! I don’t expect a lot of traffic jams on my way then, and you can always rent a decent car there. Даже если слова decent, rent, traffic jams не известны, не трудно понять, что говорящему аэропорт Heathrow пришелся по душе. Но в нашем высказывании он должен dislike все остальные аэропорты в городе. Он что-то говорит про них? Правильно, нет. Мы, конечно, можем решить, что раз он так обрадовался этому аэропорту, значит остальные ему скорее всего не нравятся, но это будет лишь нашей догадкой, опираться в выборе ответа на догадки нельзя. Высказывание F — Not Stated.
G. The final ticket price is lower than the original one.- G неверно.
В конце разговора покупатель не может определиться с датой обратного вылета и просит оставить open date на билете, на что получает ответ but it will make the price jump, то есть цена «подпрыгнет» или увеличится. Мы уже знаем, что мужчина ранее был недоволен ценой, может он что-то предпримет? Подобная логика опять приведет нас к догадкам, поэтому важно не пытаться угадать ответ, а внимательно слушать текст. Мы получаем ответ Well, I don’t mind it, значит цена остается конечной, а это выше изначальной цены. Выходит, что высказывание G неверно
Task 3-9.1.
Callum: Hello, I’m Callum Robinson and this is Entertainment. Our topic today is films and film festivals. You may have heard of the Venice Film Festival and the Cannes Film Festival, glorious occasions with A-list celebrities from the movie world turning out to promote their latest projects. A festival you might not know is the Portobello Film Festival which is currently taking place in Portobello, an area of West London. It’s had its own independent film festival for a number of years and to learn more about it I’ve invited the festival’s director Jonathan Barnett. So, Jonathan, could you tell us about when and how the festival started.
Jonathan Barnett: Well, it started in 1996 because even back in those days there were people making very low budget films often using video equipment and there wasn’t really anywhere for them to show their films so we thought it would be nice to provide a platform for these filmmakers. We had the mad idea at the time of showing every film that was submitted and we also decided not to charge because I suppose at heart we weren’t rabid capitalists.
Callum: So the festival started as a way of giving unknown filmmakers somewhere to show their films. As Jonathan said, to give them a platform. Then I’ve got a question. How many films are being shown and how do you manage to pay for it, for running the festival, I mean?
Jonathan Barnett: This year we’re showing 700 films. The money comes in from funding mostly, we get money from people and organizations like Film London and the Arts Council and we also get different kinds of support from sponsors. So we don’t have to pay for advertising, we don’t have to pay for launch parties, we don’t have to pay for prizes.
Callum: Over the first three weeks of August 700 films are being shown as part of the Portobello Film Festival. What kind of films can be seen? Are they just short student films or does the festival attract big names as well? Here’s the festival’s director Jonathan Barnett.
Jonathan Barnett: The actual films we’re showing are a lot better than anything you’ll see on TV or on multiplexes and it’s everything from student films and we also get stuff from top filmmakers like, for instance, John Malkovich. So I think because we’re a festival that has a reputation for a certain amount of integrity and also being a little bit out on a limb we attract the big names as well as people who are just starting out. The first year of the festival we had Guy Ritchie’s first film which was called the “Hard Case”, which was fantastic, it’s exactly the same as Lock Stock and Snatch but he was kind of formulating his ideas and it was a short film.
Callum: As far as I know, the Portobello Film Festival runs until the 21st of August as well as films there are other arts events, a variety of fantastic concerts, exhibitions and presentations. You want the festival to be more than just for film, don’t you?
Jonathan Barnett: Yes, what we want it to be is, we want it to be a bit like a kind of cross between Glastonbury festival and Edinburgh festival, but for free and set in Portobello Road.
Callum: We also hope it would become a big arts festival — amazing, unforgettable and a good start for young talents!
That’s all from Entertainment this week.
A festival you might not know is the Portobello Film Festival which is currently taking place in Portobello, an area of West London.
Перед прослушиванием дается 50 секунд на то, чтобы успеть прочитать задание. На этом этапе многие делают распространенную ошибку — начинают пытаться угадать правильный ответ, исходя из своих знаний, опыта или просто логики. Не нужно так делать! Догадка может сильно подвести, а наша задача — определить ответ по содержанию текста.
Читаем задание и выделяем в вопросах и ответах key words. Некоторые преподаватели советуют читать только вопросы без ответов к ним, но лично мне всегда казалось, что куда надежней прочитать все сразу, чтобы было легче ориентироваться в тексте. Однако, если вы медленно читаете или вдруг переволновались и замешкались и потеряли драгоценное время, то читайте в первую очередь вопросы. Если пока вы читаете вопросы, вдруг началось аудирование, и вы не успели все прочитать, то нужно перестать читать и внимательно слушать запись. Весь порядок информации в задании соответствует порядку в тексте, поэтому в процессе слушания вы сможете дойти до последних непрочитанных заданий. Выделяем ключевые слова как и в предыдущих заданиях, смотрим чем отличаются ответы друг от друга. Вспоминаем возможные синонимы. Поищем key words в нашем примере:
Слышим: “You may have heard of the Venice film festival and the Cannes film festival. Glorious occasions with glorious A-list celebrities from the movie world turning out to promote their latest projects. A festival you might not know is the Portobello Film Festival, which is currently taking place in Portobello, an area of West London. It’s had its own independent film festival for a number of years. And to learn more about it, I’ve invited the festival’s director… Could you tell us when and how the festival started?”
Фраза “It’s had its own independent film festival for a number of years” отсекает ответ 3) is running its second season only. Первые два ответа откликаются в предложениях: “Glorious occasions with glorious A-list celebrities” и “A festival you might not know is the Portobello Film Festival”. Первое предложение подтверждает, что celebrities есть первых двух фестивалях, но не опровергает, что на Portobello Festival их нет. Второе предложение с “you might not know” подтверждает, что фестиваль действительно “not so fashionable and well-known”. Значит, правильный ответ — 2) not so fashionable and well-known. Далее в тексте упоминаются John Malkovich и Guy Ritchie, и говорится о том, что они оба известные и участвуют/участвовали в фестивале. Это еще раз подтверждает, что ответ 1) does not attract celebrities неверный.
Типичные ошибки:
1)Предугадывание ответа. Нельзя опираться на собственные догадки и опыт, слушаем текст и ищем подтверждение там.
2)Прослушать нужное место и потеряться в тексте. Важно помнить, что все задания идут по порядку, в котором они упоминаются в тексте. Если вы вдруг поняли, что речь идет об уже следующем вопросе, приступайте сразу к нему. К пропущенным вопросам можно вернуться при втором прослушивании.
3)Попадание в “ловушки”. Порой в текстах используются повторы слов и выражений из написанных высказываний, при этом они использованы в другом контексте. Здесь легко можно растеряться и ответить не верно. Аналогично могут быть использованы антонимы. Чтобы оградить себя от подобных “ловушек”, нужно обязательно проверять себя во время второго прослушивания.
Here are the answers:
Task 1(Variant 2):
3 — 2;
4 — 1;
5 — 3;
6 — 3;
7 — 1;
8 — 2;
9 — 3;

3. The Portobello Festival differs from festivals in Cannes and Venice as it
1) does not attract celebrities.
2) is not so fashionable and well-known.
3) is running its second season only.
4. The festival was initially founded to
1) let independent filmmakers demonstrate their work.
2) help different filmmakers earn money.
3) advertise video equipment but not to show films.
5. According to the festival’s director they made the festival free because
1) there are no expensive prizes and launch parties.

9. Speaking about future plans, the festival’s director
1) sounds optimistic about the festival extension.
2) believes the festival should turn to other arts mostly.
3) thinks the festival will be united with Glastonbury or Edinburgh events.
Во время первого прослушивания нужно отметить варианты, которые кажутся верными, и возможные варианты ответа, если у вас есть сомнения.И правильные, и неправильные ответы могут включать повторы слов и выражений из текста, поэтому важно не только пытаться уловить эти слова, но контекст, в котором они используются.
Во время второго прослушивания сконцентрируйте все внимание на высказываниях, в которых вы не уверены или пропустили первый раз. Если же вы уверены в правильности своих ответов, все равно стоит прослушать запись еще раз и проверить себя.
Разберем первый вопрос из нашего примера.
The Portobello Festival differs from festivals in Cannes and Venice as it
1) does not attract celebrities.
2) is not so fashionable and well-known.
3) is running its second season only.
Как делать
Перед прослушиванием дается 20 секунд на то, чтобы успеть прочитать задание. На этом этапе многие делают распространенную ошибку — начинают пытаться угадать правильный ответ, исходя из своих знаний, опыта или просто логики. Не нужно так делать! Догадка может сильно подвести, а наша задача — определить ответ по содержанию текста.
Разумнее потратить эти 20 секунд на то, чтобы внимательно прочитать предложения и подумать, какая информация может понадобиться, чтобы понять верно утверждение или нет.
Как правило, все предложения идут в том же порядке, в котором они упоминаются в записи. Если вдруг вы поняли, что пропустили какую-то информацию и уже слышите реплики из следующих высказываний, не паникуем! Запись играет дважды, у вас будет возможность вернуться к этому предложению, а сейчас лучше сосредоточиться на оставшихся.
Можно подчеркнуть key words (ключевые слова), но не стоит ожидать, что их произнесут в тексте. Наоборот, нужные слова и фразы могут быть перефразированы.
Поищем key words в нашем примере:
|
A. |
The client is going to London this week. |
|
B. |
The client has chosen an evening flight. |
|
C. |
The client is flying to London for sightseeing. |
|
D. |

|
E. |
It’s the shortest possible flight to London. |
|
F. |
The client dislikes London airports except for Heathrow. |
|
G. |
The final ticket price is lower than the original one. |
Легко заметить схожесть предложений D и G: в обоих случаях мы имеем информацию про ticket price. Важно, что в предложении G мы должны услышать информацию именно про final ticket price.
Во время первого прослушивания нужно стараться найти опровержение или подтверждение каждого утверждения. Если нет ни того, ни другого, смело ставим Not stated. Если вы сомневаетесь в правильности решения или, например, прослушали момент, где могло упоминаться высказывание, поставьте рядом с ним знак вопроса, чтобы вернуться к этому месту во время второго прослушивания.
Во время второго прослушивания сконцентрируйте все внимание на высказываниях, в которых вы не уверены или пропустили первый раз. Если же вы уверены в правильности своих ответов, все равно стоит прослушать запись еще раз и проверить себя.
Разбор примера
Разберем первые два высказывания из нашего примера.

Дальше он явно радуется этому факту That’s good news! I don’t expect a lot of traffic jams on my way then, and you can always rent a decent car there. Даже если слова decent, rent, traffic jams не известны, не трудно понять, что говорящему аэропорт Heathrow пришелся по душе. Но в нашем высказывании он должен dislike все остальные аэропорты в городе. Он что-то говорит про них? Правильно, нет. Мы, конечно, можем решить, что раз он так обрадовался этому аэропорту, значит остальные ему скорее всего не нравятся, но это будет лишь нашей догадкой, опираться в выборе ответа на догадки нельзя. Высказывание F — Not Stated.

The final ticket price is lower than the original one. |
В конце разговора покупатель не может определиться с датой обратного вылета и просит оставить open date на билете, на что получает ответ but it will make the price jump, то есть цена «подпрыгнет» или увеличится. Мы уже знаем, что мужчина ранее был недоволен ценой, может он что-то предпримет? Подобная логика опять приведет нас к догадкам, поэтому важно не пытаться угадать ответ, а внимательно слушать текст. Мы получаем ответ Well, I don’t mind it, значит цена остается конечной, а это выше изначальной цены. Выходит, что высказывание G неверно.
