A. Read the title of the text and its first paragraph. What do you think the text is going to be about? B. Read the text to the end What new things did you learn from it? They Are So Much Like Us Many people think that penguins f'peggwinzl live in the places where it is very cold. But we can find them not only along the Antarctic [aenl'arktik] continent (not the Arctic!) and islands. They also live in Peru fpa'ru:!, Brazil [bra'zil], Southwest Africa, New Zealand and in the south of Australia. 10 The penguin is famous because it can stand up straight and walk. When they w'alk they look funny to us. They look like people wearing black coats and white shirts. Ages ago, the penguins were about 2 metres tall and could fly as well as any other bird. But today their wings are short and useless for flying. How did it happen? Many scientists say that it happened because penguins had very few enemies. They lived on the territories where there was practically nobody dangeroтдs for them. So they could safely spend all the time on land or in the water. They stopped using their wings. In time those wings became very small, until today they an* useless for flying. But penguins are fantastic swimmers. Penguins also developed a thick coat of fat to protect them from the icy cold of the territories where they live. Work in pairs. Ask and answer questions about penguins. Ask about; where j)enguins live; if they live near the North or the South Pole; in what penguins are different from other birds; what they look like; what they w’ere like long ago; how it happened that they can’t fly; w'hat they can do very well; why penguins don’t feel cold.

Read the text and say in what way animals are different from plants. Animals and Plants As scientists say, an animal is any living thing (including people) that is not a plant. Nobody knows how many different species of wild plants and animals there are on our planet. People discover hundreds of new kinds every year. In what way are animals different from plants? This question is not always easy to answer. Animals and plants get their food differently: animals eat plants or other animals, while plants get their food from the air and soil with tlie help of their leaves and roots. But we know that some plants can catch and “eat” insects. Also animals can move about and hide while plants grow in the same place. But there are some plants that can travel and there are some that never leave their place. As you sec plants and animals have much in common. There are more than 300,000 different species of plants on the Earth. Some plants grow very tall and live a very long life. Other plants are so small that you can see them only through a microscope L'maikroskaopl. The same is true about animals. You can find plants and animals in the oceans and deserts, in mountains and in cold tundra ['tAndra] plains. When people first learned to cultivate ['kAltiveit] plants and domesticate animals, our civilization [,sivalai'zeijn] began. We can't live without them. Plants are able to use sunlight to grow. They “breathe in” carbon diox- 16 с 3 ide' gas and “breathe out” life-giving oxygen^. They support life on the planet. B. Listen, (65), and read the text aloud. C.

Говоря о землевладении, земельных угодьях, также используется существительное land; You are on my land. The king's lands stretch for many miles. He works on the land (= he is a farmer). 3) soil — земля (почва) The soil here is not rich at all. I don't think anything can grow in it. 4) ground — земля (поверхность, по которой мы ходим) The horse fell to the ground. Слово land часто употребляется в значении «страна»; my native land, the land of poets. Заметьте, что часто название нашей планеты употребляется с определённым артиклем и при этом пишется с заглавной буквы; the Earth, the planet Earth. В то же время в устойчивых выражениях артикль обычно не используется и слово earth пишется со строчной буквы; соте down to earth (спуститься с небес на землю, быть реалистом); — Гт going to travel around the world. — Oh, come down to earth.

Probably the best singer is the nightingale. Sometimes when we are out in the country, we hoar birds making some sounds and we may think they are telling one another something. The fact is that birds have their own language, just as many other animals do but their language is different from people’s language. We use words and people must know these words, they should learn them. Birds don’t learn their language. They are able to sing, “to talk” because they can make sounds and noises. It is an instinct with them. Let’s take a chick from its parents so that it can’t hear the sounds they make. When the chick grows up, it will still be able to make the same sounds as its parents. But birds can’t learn “other languages”. Some birds like parrots, crows, jackdaws' are talented imitators ['imiteitaz]. They imitate the speech of people and other animals. A lot of birds can learn other birds’ songs.

For a long time people thought that monkeys and apes belonged to the same species of animals, but scientifically speaking it is not so. Monkeys are .smaller than apes, they have long tails which they often use as an extra “hand”. They easily use both their hands and feet if they want to take something. Monkeys and apes are primates. They live in the tropics, especially in rainforests. Apes and monkeys are common in tropical Africa and Asia. Monkeys also live in South America. a look — взгляд 24 Probably the most interesting of all are great apes. This group [gru:p] includes the chimpanzee [,фтргеп'г1:], gorilla and orangutan lD:'raer)u:'t£ei]]. Apes are the only primates that are humanlike. They look like us, are tailless and have the same disea.ses as people. All apes sleep at night. Some of them make platforms in the trees, others make nests on the ground. Apes mostly eat plants and sometimes kill sniall animals, like insects, for food. Chimpanzees and gorillas spend more time on the ground than in the trees and walk on all fours. Apes have just one young, or, from time to time, twins. They travel in family groups of 30 or 40. Apes live 30 years or more. They carry their babies in one arm like human mothers or place them on their backs. Chimps are very curious and often friendly and peaceful. Gorillas become aggressive [s'gresiv] only when they defend their territory. Apes are very clever animals, second only to humans. They can understand the vocabulary of up to several hundred words and symbols. Chimps often use branches, stones and boxes on which they stand to get their food. Some scientists even believe that apes can count. A.

Insects live all over the world. There are more kinds of them than of all animal species. We know more than 850,000 different kinds of insects. In other words, eight out of ten of all the Earth’s animals are insects! Some of them are very- small, others are as big as your hand. Some of them are useful and helpful. Others are dangerous. Many have interesting life stories. Here are some of them. 2. Bees are social ['saujl] insects — they live in big groups or colonies. Each colony has a queen bee and worker bees. A worker bee’s life is very short, usually about four weeks. Worker bees fly and collect nectar L'nekto] from flowers. A bee can see some colours. They are green, blue and ultraviolet' wliich people cannot see. But red is no colour to a bee. It sees red things as black. By the way a bee must visit about 4,000 flowers to make a tablespoon of honey^. Worker bees are very busy insects. People often say as busy as a bee about someone^ who has a lot of work to do. 3. Ants are social insects too. They are colony makers and have been living on the Earth for about 100 million years. Their number is very large. You can find ants in forests and mountains, in plains and valleys, nearly in all the places of our planet. Some colonies are on the ground, others live deep in the ground. Most ants are wingless, but their queens usually have wings. Ant workers get food for the queens. Ants are very hard-working insects. 4. Butterflies are flying insects. They live in most parts of the world, even as far north as the Arctic. Butterflies have many colours, they can be big and small. One of the smallest lives in South Africa. The largest is the Queen Alexandra that is as big as a bird. All butterflies begin their lives as caterpillars which appear from eggs. The caterpillars spend their lives eating plants. They change their skin several times as they grow. Then a caterpillar turns into a chrysalis^, from which a butterfly comes out. Some butterflies fly from one part of the world to another during some seasons. One of the most famous is the monarch butterfly in North America. In the summer it lives all over the USA and Canada. In the autumn monarch butterflies fly south to Mexico, Florida and California for the winter. In spring they fly back again. Dragonflies, beetles, ladybirds and moths have their interesting and unusual stories. B. Listen to the text, (72), and read it aloud.

That’s why the country looks like a big beautiful garden. Centuries ago there were a lot of forests in the British Isles but now you can find big forests only in a few parts of the country - the north of Scotland and the southeast and southwest of England. The most common trees in England are oaks, elms and beeches while Scotland has a lot of pines, firs and birches. 2. The fauna, or animal life in the British Isles is like in the northwest of Europe. Many larger animals such as bears and wolves don’t live on the British Isles any more but there are a lot of smaller animals: foxes, rabbits, hares and hedgehogs. Deer live in the forests of Scotland and England too. There are also different kinds of fish, snakes, frogs, butterflies and dragonflies. 3. More than two hundred species of birds live in the British Isles and about two hundred kinds are visitors to the place. Many of them are songbirds, in spring the land rings with their singing. The most common are blackbirds and sparrows. A lot of waterbirds — swans, ducks, geese and gulls live on the lakes and rivers and on the sea coasts of Great Britain. 4. It may be interesting that the robin, one of Britain’s common birds, has become the national symbol of the country. There are also plant symbols of the country: the red rose is the national emblem of England, the thistle is the national emblem of Scotland, the yellow daffodil and the leek are emblems of Wales and the shamrock is the emblem of Ireland.

His theory ['в1эп] of evolution [,ev3'lu:Jn] opened a new page in the old book of nature'. Darwin was born on 12 February 1809 in England. His father was a doctor and his grandfather was a philosopher [fi’losafo] and a poet but he was interested in nature too. When a boy, Darwin showed little interest in school and later when he was a medical student at the university he was not really fond of medicine ['medsnj and soon decided he did not want to become a doctor. At that time he began to be interested in biology. In 1831 he joined an expedition [,ekspi'dijn] on a ship that went to the Pacific Islands. There Darwin understood that the living things coiild change with time and developed his famous theory of evolution. Charles Darwin believed that all species of life appeared from one living organism. The scientist died in April 1882. His body now lies in Westminster Abbey.

Helen Beatrix Potter was bom on the 6th of July 1866 in London. She w£is an only daughter of rather rich parents. She did not go to school but had classes at home. 2. Beatrix was fond of two things. They were animals and drawing. She had a lot of small pets at home: a family of snails, mice, a rabbit _ and a hedgehog. From a small child she did hundreds of drawings of plants and animals and learned to do it very well. She often illustrated her letters to child friends with little animal drawings and told them stories about these animals. 3. One day in 1893 she wrote to a little boy called Noel Moor. The boy was ill and she wanted to please him and make him laugh. The letter began with the words: “I don’t know what to write to you so I shall tell you a story about four little rabbits whose names were Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail and Peter.” In this letter she told the story of Peter Rabbit and illustrated it with lovely little drawings. 4. Eight years later Beatrix Potter remembered the letter and the story and wrote her now famous children’s book “The Tale of Peter Rabbit”. The book was very successful and Beatrix Potter became a professional children’s writer. For many years now children in England and in other countries have been enjoying her stories about mice, kittens, ducks, squirrels, hedgehogs and rabbits. And her fantastic illustrations make her books even better. Maximum result 5 Your result ? III.

It stretches from the shores of the Pacific Ocean in Asia to the Baltic Sea in Europe, and from the cold, snowy Arctic to the sunny Black Sea coast. An elk Russia has nearly every kind of weather. Also, it has many kinds of land — rocky niointains, dry empty steppes, powerful rivers, wide plains and grasslands, great forests and lands of endless winter. There are places of great beauty and places of historic interest. The wild areas* in the country are the home of many birds and animals. It is important not to destroy these places but to keep them as they are for everyone to enjoy. Russia, like many other countries, has a system of national parks. The first national park, Losinyi Ostrov (Elk Isle) appeared in 1983. It is situated to the northeast of Moscow and a part of it in fact lies on the territory of the city. Now the park has become a popular place to visit for grown-ups and children, especially schoolchildren who come to the park in big groups. The park has two visitor’s centres. The scientists who work in the park are interested in the flora and fauna of this area. Here are some unusual species of grasses and wild flowers that you can’t see so often any more, for example, different bluebells and lilies-of-the-valley. Most of the park’s territory' is under forests, and the common trees here are pines and firs. As for the animals, there are about 300 species of them, mostly birds. They are forest birds and water birds like ducks and geese and even gulls. Here a visitor can see mice, .squirrels, foxes, hares, otters, wild boars, deer and elks which gave the name to the park. There are not so many elks living in the park now, only 20 or 30, but the scientists hope to see more of these beautiful and strong animals in the park in the future.

What Is Ecology* No living thing or group of living things can live and grow in isolation [aiso'leijn]. All organisms, plants and animals need energ>- ['ena^i] to develop and all species of living things influence the lives of others. Ecology is a science. It studies how plants, animals and human beings live together and influence each other. It is also a science about our environment. People have always studied living things in their natural environment. In other words, they have always studied the air, the water, the soil and all other things that are around a person, animal or plant. The environment can influence the growth of living things and the way they develop. Ecologists [I'kolac^ists] also study what happens to different species, how they change. The scientists collect information about the number of living things in different areas, their size and behaviour. Ecology is one of the most important .sciences in the 21st century. It teaches us how to survive in the modern world. B. Listen, (83), and read the text aloud. Л. What does the text "What Is Ecology" say about these?

The word “environment” means what is around us. People who live in big industrial centres, cities and towns live in a town environment. For others their environment is countryside'. Everybody who lives in towns or in the country breathes air, drinks water, uses soil which should be clean. But are they really clean? 2. The water in the oceans, seas and rivers has become polluted in many places. If people drink this water, they can get ill or even die. People use oceans and seas as big dumps and pour industrial and domes-tic waste into them. And so fish become toxic. It is very dangerous for people to eat such fish. Water birds leave places with toxic water. A lot of trees on the coast die, too. 3. The things we eat are not always healthy as fruit and vegetables can grow on polluted soil and become dangerous too. The meat we get from sheep and cows can be bad for our health if these sheep and cows eat grass that grows on polluted land. 4. People cut down trees and many birds and animals can’t have homes in their usual places and they begin dying out. If the situation doesn’t change, soon we shall live in a very different world a world without a number of species we know now. 5.

Read the text and find in it "instruction" phrases. Nothing can burn without oxygen. To find out how much oxygen there is in the air, make a simple experiment. The first thing you should do is to stand a candle in a bowl of water. Light the candle. Be careful not to burn yourself. The next thing you do is to cover' the candle with a glass jar^. Remember that water should be able to get into the jar. Another thing to remember is to mark the leveP of water in the jar. As the candle burns, there becomes less oxygen in the air and the water goes up to take its place. Soon the candle goes out — all the oxygen has gone. You will find that the water has gone one fifth of the way up the jar. A fifth of the air is oxygen. B. Complete the text "Grow Your Own Violets". Use the "instruction" phrases.

Water Pollution The sea is full of bacteria [baek'tiaria], plants and animals which eat waste. The sea cleans it.self if we do not use it as a dump. But if we dump too much weiste in the sea, the bacteria, jjlants and animals cannot recycle it quickly, so the water becomes polluted. Chemicals ['kemikals] from farms and factories get into the rivers; and the rivers carry the waste to the sea. The chemicals get into the food chain and so fish and other sea animals can become dangerous to eat. The worst kind of sea pollution is oil’ pollution. Oil is black and dirty and there are toxic chemicals in it. If oil gets in the sea water, it stays on top^ of it. Air cannot get to the plants and animals under the water and they die. Water birds become dirty with oil and are not able to fly. Very few of them survive. One of the worst oil pollutions in the world took place in 2011 in the Gulf of Mexico. When millions of tons [L\nz] of oil went into the sea. People had to work for months to stop the pollution and to clean up the place. In the Gulf War^ in 1991 people themselves put oil on fire. A lot of oil went into the sea, got onto the ground. There were lakes of burning oil everywhere. The oil went down under the ground and polluted the water there. The pollution was terrible. Electric street lights burned all day in Kuwait [ku;'weit] because of the smoke'* from burning oil. Black and dirty rain fell on the Himalayan [,hima'lei3n] Mountains, thousands kilometres away. latafaBoc ^ Phrasal Verbs (Фразовые глаголы) Познакомься с новыми фразовыми глаголами, у которых общее ядро слово take. down off (It off (2) 1) to take down — написать, записать The police took down their addresses and phone numbers. 2) to take in — понять, взять в толк (обычно в отрицательных предложениях) Не read the text but didn't take half of it in. 3) to take off (1) — взлетать (о летательных аппаратах) Our plane should take off on time. 4) to take off (2) — снимать (об одежде, обуви) Take off your boots when you come in. 5) to take up — заняться чем-то новым My friend Pam has taken up gardening. 77 tn П) T3 00 * oil [ml] — нефть ® top [top] - верх, поверхность ^ the Gulf War [,дл1Г 'wo:] — война в Персидском заливе ^ smoke [smook] — дым 78 С 3 г+ U1 В Complete the sentences with down, in, off or up.

Pollution started in a small way, but then it began growing and асюп we all shall be in danger. The time has come to save our planet, to protect people, animals and plants from dying. First of all countries should have strong laws to control [ksn'traul] pollution, to protect animals and plants. Governments should be responsible for protecting nature. Today the law in some countries says: “The polluter must pay. If a person damages trees or animals, he must also pay.” But such good laws don’t always work. Scientists often meet and talk about ways of helping nature, and politicians in many countries listen to them and are beginning to talk about this too. Countries can open national parks. These are homes for animals living freely and also for birds, trees and flowers. Visitors can go there but they can’t hunt there. Politicians can think of ways to stop hunting. Governments should also find ways to recycle things we have used: paper bags and plastic bags, plastic bottles and metal things. They should 80 in build recycling factories. Governments must control and if necessary' close dangerous plants and factories. We all must work to keep our planet clean. B. Listen, (99), read the text again and say; • why we all can be in danger soon; • how laws can help to protect nature; • why politicians must listen to scientists; • in what way national parks can help to protect wildlife; • what things we can recycle and why it is important; • who is responsible for making our planet a clean and beautiful place.

Every Little Helps (Story by a schoolgirl, age 12) Once Vicki was coming back from her small country school. It was one of the last days of the term.

Vicki was in shock to see that the wootl looked terrible: there was rubbish everywhere — paper and plastic bags, boxes and bottles, Vicki ran all her way back home. She had to do something about it. Suddenly she had an idea. “We must clean up the place,” she thought. At home she phoned four of her schoolfriends. They all agreed to help her. It was hard work but soon they put all the rubbish into big bags and took it away. The little green wood looked beautiful again. On the next day the girls came to the wood once more. They wanted to see the rubbish dumpers with their own eyes. In the wood there were some people finishing their picnic. There was a lot of rubbish on the ground around them. “What are you going to do with this rubbish?” asked the girls. “The place looks ugly. Don’t you think so?” "The young lady is right,” said a w/oman with a hat on, “we can’t leave this rubbish here.” “That’s right,” .said Vicki. “Here, take this bag.” “Thank you, girls," they said. “You’ve helped us to understand that the country is a beautiful place and we must keep it clean.” 1) Every little helps means ... . a) little children can very well help grown-ups b) everybody should help to do important work c) even small things can give good results 84 ui у • * • 2) Vicki lived ... . a) in a city b) outside a city c) in the wood 3) When Vicki was going home she saw that the little wood looked a) not the same as it usually did c) better than it usually di b) the same as it usually did 4) Vicki cleaned up the wood ... . a) with the help of her girlfriends c) on her own b) with the help of the picnickers 5) The picnickers ... . a) understood the girls and decided to clean up the place b) understood the girls but were not ready to clean up the place c) didn’t understand what the girls wanted Maximum result 5 Your result ?

Read the text and try to understand what the marked' words mean. Why Are Some People Left-handed? About four per cent [po'sent] of people are left-handed. From history we know that some of the most talented men and women have been left-handed. Leonardo da Vinci [ vintji] and Michelangelo [,maikI'cenc^ol3u], the greatest sculptors of all times, were both left-handed. At the same time we live in a right-handed world. We make our scissors, cars, musical instruments and other things mostly for right-handed people. So left-handed people have to learn to use them. ' marked tma;kt] — выделенный We don’t know what makes most people right-handed. Here is one theory: the body is not symmetrical, not quite the same on both sides. For example, the right side of the face is a little different from the left. One of our legs is not as strong as the other. Our feet, toes or shoulders may be a little different in size. And this asymmetry goes through our whole' body. The same is true about the brain. The hiiman brain has two halves which don’t work the same way. People believe that the left half of the brain is more “active” than the right half. The nerves [naivz] from the brain go to the opposite side of the body. That’s why the right half of the body is better able to do things. We read, write, speak and work with the left half of the brain. And this makes most of us right-handed ^ю. But with some few people the right half of the brain is more active, and these people work best with the left side of their bodies. B. Listen, ^ (108), and read the text aloud. C. Why, do you think, doctors say that parents shouldn't teach left-handed children to work with their right hands? Choose the right answer. 1) It may make left-handed children less talented. 2) It may take too much time. 3) It may damage their health. 97 tn о •D Ы DO IT Oni YOUR OWN John likes what he sees.

Английские школьники, как и российские, учат в школе, что километр состоит из тысячи метров, а в килограмме — тысяча граммов. Однако жители Великобритании хорошо помнят старую систему измерений и иногда продолжают ею пользоваться. Так, на рынках вам до сих пор могут взвесить продукты в фунтах, объём напитков назвать в пинтах, а расстояние измерить в милях. Для многих людей старшего поколения это гораздо более привычно. То же положение дел характерно и для США. Сравните меры в двух системах. Length^ 1 inch = 2.54 cm 1 foot = 0.3048 m 1 yard = 3 feet = 0.9144 m 1 mile = 1.609 km Liquids 1 pint [pami] = 0.4732 dm^ Принятые сокращения ounce = oz Weight 1 ounce [aans] = 28.35 g 1 pound = 0.454 kg 1 stone =14 pounds = 6.35 kg 1 gallon ['gaslon] = 3.7853 dm^ pound = lb Обратите внимание, что на письме англичане отделяют десятичные дроби от целого числа точкой, а не запятой, как принято у нас.

When Sue looked out of the window one summer morning, she saw a new family moving into the house opposite theirs, their new neighbours. There was a girl about her age and a boy in a wheelchair'. Soon Sue and the new girl Carrie became good friends. Once Sue asked Carrie about her brother. “What’s wrong with Brad?” “There’s a problem with his backbone,” answered the girl. “That’s why he can’t use his legs.” “How sad! Can’t the doctors do anything about his legs?” asked Sue. “No, not really. But he doesn’t like it when people feel sorry for him. He’s very brave. You’ll see for yourself when you meet him.” Once Carrie invited Sue and her twin brother Ted to come to their place. The first time Sue and Ted saw Brad’s room they were greatly surpised. There were photos of famous football players on the walls and a guitar on one of the chairs. “Do you like football?” asked Ted and his face became red when he remembered that the boy could not walk, to say nothing of playing football. “And you play the guitar, don’t you?” “Oh, yes. Football is great,” Brad agreed. “And I love music too.” By and by the four children began to spend more time together. Brad knew a lot about music, sports and other things, and it was fun to talk to him. One afternoon when they were in the park Ted’s friends called him to play football. He wanted to say “yes” but thought ateut Brad. Brad understood. “It’s all right. I’ll watch,” he said. But in fact he wanted to play together with the others. Suddenly the ball flew near him, and the boy did a good header. “Wow!” shouted the players. “How did you learn to do that?” “We played football in wheelchairs in my old school,” answered Brad. “It was a school for disabled* children.” “Are you going to leave us in autumn to go to your old school?” asked Ted who didn’t want to lose his new friend. No,” answered Brad, “I hope to go to the same school as you.” I’m so glad,” said Ted and the others agreed with him. C.

Back to the Bike Travelling to work or to school if it is far from your house gets more difficult every year. That’s why people have found a very useful kind of transport or rather they have remembered it and have taken it from the past. They are going back to the bike. In many European countries children often go to school by bike and students cycle to classes. But nowadays more and more office managers, businessmen and people of other professions are going to work by bike. One of them is Dr Williams. “Cycling is good for you,” he says. Every day Dr Williams cycles to his hospital in the centre of London and he sees that drivers and their passengers can sit in traffic jams' for a long time. People are afraid to be late for their work and they often breathe in polluted air. They are tired, they are not happy. That’s bad for their hearts and lungs. Then they can’t find a place for parking. And that doesn’t do them any good either. Many people who drive cars and work in offices easily liecome obese. “People living in the twenty-first century do not get enough exercise,” says Dr Williams, “so I tell all my patients to buy a bike. If you cycle to work, you save environment, you save money and you save your health. And you often save time too. In London, it’s sometimes quicker to travel by bike than by bus. Cycling is clean, quiet, cheapo and healthy. And it can also be fun. Cycle to work, to college or to school all week and go for a cycle ride in the country at the weekend.

It may sound strange or funny to you, but man needs protection as much as animals do. People must keep their habitats — houses, towns and cities — ecologically clean. In the places where people drink bad water, eat unhealthy food and breathe polluted air, they may have serious diseases and die early. Their children are often born weak. Doctors prescribe them medicines which can’t help them. This problem becomes more and more serious with every passing day. 2. The way people live nowadays also tells on their health. They try to do a number of things at the same time, have their finger in every pie. For a lot of people such a situation is stressful. It may result in heart attacks, headaches and other health problems. It is also hard for modern people to cope* with all the information tliey get from the Internet, radio, television and newspapers. That is a big stress as well, and people will have to learn to live with the new way of life. 3. Also modern living often moans little physical activity. We don’t get enough exerci.se because we use cars and other mechanisms to make our lives easier. At the same time we often forget that we were born to move run, jump and walk, but not to watch television for many hours or to sit in front of the computer monitor.

Имена существительные в английском языке могут быть исчисляемыми и неисчисляемыми. Исчисляемые имена существительные (Countable Nouns) обозначают предметы, которые можно сосчитать и которые имеют два числа — единственное и множественное (а boy boys, an egg - eggs). Неисчисляемые имена существительные (Uncountable Nouns) обозначают явления и понятия, которые нельзя сосчитать. Они употребляются только в едипственном числе и согласуются со сказуемым в единственном числе: Gold is expensive nowadays. Surfing is sometimes dangerous. The information h2is been very useful. Неисчисляемые имена существительные могут обозначать вещество (bread, cheese, water), вид деятельности (work, shopping), иметь абстрактный характер (love, friendship, joy). Нсисчисляемые существительные обычно не используются с неопределённым артиклем: We are having fine weather today. There was snow on the roofs. § 2. Иногда в речи необходимо указать на часть целого. Для этих целей в английском языке часто употребляют существительное piece (а piece of bread, а piece of meat, a piece of paper). § 3. Имя существительное pair часто используется с названиями парных предметов: а pair of boots, а pair of gloves, a pair of trousers. Обратите внимание на то, что в случае использования подобных словосочетаний глагол употребляется не во множественном, а в единственном числе: There was а pair of slippers under the bed. The new pair of jeans is dark blue. § 4. Вы уже знаете основные прави.та использования артиклей (а/ап, the, нулевого артикля) с именами существительными school, college, univer sity, hospital, bed, church, prison, work. Обратите внимание также на нижеследующее правило. В сочетаниях с именами существительными артикль опускается, если эти слова употреб-зяются в переносном значении и называют не объект или место, а деятельность, связанную с ними: to go to school — у^штъся в школе to be at school — учиться в школе to go to college university — учиться в колледже/университете to be at college/university — учиться в ко-чледже/университете to go to hospital — лечиться в больнице to be at hospital — лечиться в больнице to go to bed ложиться спать 125 126 to be in bed — быть в постели to go to church — пойти в церковь (пойти помолхгться Богу) to be in prison — быть в заключении, сидеть в тюрьме to go to work — пойти на работу to be at work — быть на работе Если те же самые слова обозначают конкретные объекты, с ними употребляются определённый или неопределённый артикль в соответствии с общим правилом. There is а clmrch at the end of our street, (здание церкви) The work was interesting but not easy, (конкретная работа) § 5. Имя существительное ache (часто т^шая ноющая боль) является исчисляемым именем существительным. Однако сложные слова earache, backache, stomachache, toothache в британском варианте английского языка часто используются как неисчисляемые; Chocolate gives me toothache. She suffers from backache. Тем не менее имя су1цествительное headache всегда употребляется с артиклем, являясь исчисляемым: I had а nasty headache yesterday. В американском английском сложные слова, оканчивающиеся на -ache, обычно используются как исчисляемые: а toothache, а stomachache, ап earache, а backache. § 6. С именами существительными, обозначающими названия языков: English, Russian, French, Chinese, Japanese etc., артикль не употребляется. Однако если в наименование языка включается имя существительное 1ап gauge, то название содержит определённый артикль: the English language, the Russian language, the French language etc. § 7. Для обозначения коллективного названия нации обычно перед именем существительным употребляется определённый артикль: the Chinese — китайцы, the Portuguese — португальцы, the Japanese — японцы, the English — англичане, the British — британцы, the Irish — ирландцы, the French — французы, the Dutch — голландтщт. Однако если в названии нации имеется имя существительное с суффиксом -ап, то сама лексическая единица используется во множественном числе, причём она может употребляться как с определённым артиклем, так и без него; (the) Americans — американцы, (the) Russians — рус«'кие, (the) Canadians — канадцы, (the) Italians — итальянцы. § 8. Для обозначения отдельного представителя нации указанные выше имена существительные используются с неопределённым артиклем: ап American, а Russian, а Canadian, ап Italian, а Chinese, а Portuguese, а Japanese. Несколько иначе создаются имена существительные, обозначающие отдельного представителя нации, если они образованы от слов Dutch, English, Irish, French, British. В этом случае используются слова man, woman. Сравните: а Dutchman — голландец ап Irishman — ирландец а Dutchwoman — голландка ап Irishwoman — ирландка ап Englishman — англичанин а Frenchman — француз ап Englishwoman — англичанка а Frenchwoman — француженка Во множественном числе эти сложные имена существительные содержат основы -теп и -women: Englishmen, Dutchmen, Englishwomen, Dutchwomen. Возможно также использование словосочетания со вторым элементом people: English people, Irish people, French people и т. д. § 9. Во фразах типа «Я русский«>, «Он англичанин» чаще используется омонимичное прилагательное, чем имя существитачьное. Сравните: I am Russian. Не is English. They are American. (I am a Russian. He is an Englishman. They are Americans. — возможные, но значительно реже употребляемые варианты.) § 10. Многие имена существительные в английском языке образуются при помощи различных суффиксов и префиксов: dis- (dissatisfaction. distraction) -er (reader, writer, painter) -ing (meeting, beginning, ending) -ment (development, agreement) -ness (darkness, whiteness, fitness) -th (depth, growth, width) -tion (demonstration, pollution, education) 127 THE ADJECTIVE (ИМЯ ПРИЛАГАТЕЛЬНОЕ) § 1. Английские глнголы to sound (звучать) и to feel (чувствовать) сочетаются в предложении с именами прилагательными, в отличие от аналогичных конструкций русского языка, в которых используются наречия- Сравните: The music sounds loud, (Музыка звучит громко.) She says she is feeling strange now, (Она говорит, что странно себя чувствует.) Jack feels good every summer. (Каждое лето Джек чувствует себя хороню.) § 2. Слова few {fewer, fewest) и little {less, least) часто употребляются с артиклем а: а few (немного, с исчисляемыми существительными) и а little (немного, с неисчисляемыми): а few apples, а few languages, а few photos, a little water, a little porridge, a little kindness. В отличие от единиц few/ little (мало), сочетания а few/a little указывают на небольшое, но достаточное количество чего-либо и имеют позитивное (положительное) значение, в то время как few/little подчёркивают малое количество чего-либо, недостаточное для выполнения определённого действия: I have а few potatoes and а little chicken. I can make a salad. I have few potatoes and very little chicken. I can’t make a salad. § 3. Указателем на некоторое количество знакомых вам предметов или вещества также служит единица some: some juice, some vegetables. Для исчисляемых существительных в этой функции часто используется слово several: There were several flower shops in my street. Alice is one of the several nieces. § 4. Имена прилагательные в современном английском языке часто образуются при помощи суффиксов и префиксов: -able (suitable, readable, spreadable) -al (cultural, geographicalt musical) dis- (displeased, disconnected) -fill (painful, skilful) -loss (penniless, childless, careless) -ly (lovely, kindly, ugly, shapely) -y (sandy, cloudy) 128 THE PRONOUN (МЕСТОИМЕНИЕ) Возвратные местоимения (reflexive pronouns) представляют специфический разряд английских местоимений. Эти местоимения образуются путём прибавления элементов self (для единственного числа), selves (для множественного числа) к личным местоимениям в объектном падеже (him, her, it, them) или притяжательным местоимениям (my, our, your). Единственное число Множественное число myself himself ourselves yourself herself yourselves itself themselves Данные местоимения можно перевести на русский язык следующим образом: I saw it myself, Я видел это сам. Do it yourself. Сделай это сам. Do it yourselves. Сделайте это сами. They are looking at themselves. Они смотрят на себя. Don't cut yourself. He порежься. Don’t hurt yourself. He ушибись. Однако целый ряд возвратных глаголов русского языка при передаче смыслового содержания на английском языке не имеют при себе возвратных местоимений. Сравните: to bathe — купаться to hide — прятаться to behave — вести себя to shave — бриться to dress — одеться to wash умыться to feel — чувствовать себя Jack washed, dressed and went to the kitchen. He is too young to shave. THE VERB (ГЛАГОЛ) § 1. Глагол в английском языке обладает большим количеством форм, обозначающих грамматическую категорию времени. Глагольные формы указывают не только на то, когда происходит действие — в прошлом, настоящем или будущем, но также свидетельствуют о некоторых особенностях протекания действия. Так, неощюделснные времена (simple Indefinite tenses! говорят о том, что мы имеем дело с обычным, постоянно повторяющимся действием: We often play football in the schoolyard. Эта же хлагольная форма используется для описания законов природы, общеизвестных истин, бесспорных фактов: In autumn days will be shorter than in summer. Продолженные времена (progressive/continuous tenses), как правило, обозначают действия, протекающие в определённый момент пли определённый период времени: John is talking at the moment. Colin was not listening to me then. Пер())ектные и.чи совершенные времена (perfect tenses) описывают законченные, завершившиеся к моменту речи действия: Tim has become а champion this season. I had lived there 3 years by 2000. Кроме того, принято различать совершенные продолженные времена (например. present perfect progressive tense), Э'го время описывает действия, которые длились определённое время в прошлом и продолжаются в момент речи или закончились только что: She has been staying here for a week. I have been waiting so long! Wliere have you been? § 2. Таким образом, на этом этапе вам знакомы следующие формы анг лийских глаголов: 1) simple/indefinite; 2) progressive/contimious; 3) perfect; 4) perfect progressive,/continuous. Однако любое действие может протекать в настоящем, прошлом или будущем. Поэтому в целом классификация глагольных форм в активном залоге может быть представлена следующим образом. Настоящее Прошедшее Будущее present simple past simple future simple present progressive past progressive future progressive present perfect past perfect future perfect present perfect progressive past perfect progressive future perfect progressive (С формами, выделенными в таблице курсивом, вы познакомитесь в следующих классах.) § 3. Грамматические времена группы present perfect образуются с помощью вспомогательного глагола have-has и трютьей формы смыслового глагола: Have/has + V3 При ;кгом форма has жюбходима для глаголов в третьем лице единственного числа, а форма have — для всех остальных случаев. Правильные глаголы образуют третью форму с помощью прибавления окончания ed (played, wanted, stayed), a так называемые неправильные глаголы делают это особым образом с помощью слов, которые нужно запомнить (gone, been, cauglit). Отрицания во времени present perfect строятся с помощью отрицания not и вспомогательного глагола: have not (haven’t)/has not (hasn’t). They haven’t spoken to their teacher. She hasn’t decided where to go yet. Вопросы в рассматриваемом здесь времени строятся с помощью перемещения вспомогательного г.тагола на первое место в предложении (в общих вопросах) и перенесения его в позицию между вопросительным словом и подлежащим (в специальных вопросах), а также соответствующего интонационного оформления: Have they done the work yet? Has John come back yet? Where has everyone gone? How well have they played the game? Разделительный вопрос во времени present perfect образуется по общему П1>авилу образования разделительных вопросов: You have not seen a giraffe, have you? You have never seen a giraffe, have you? He has given you lus word, hasn’t lie? To же самое касается и альтернативных вопросов: Have they had salad or sandwiches for lunch? Следует обратить внимание на то, что в вопросительных предложениях с глаголом в форме present perfect обычно используется наречие yet. В этих случаях место этого наречия — в конце предложения. 129 130 Has Jane come back yet? Однако наречие already^ сходное по своему значению со словом yet^ также может использоваться в предложениях с present perfect. Например: Has Jane already come back? Have you already seen this photo? Заметьте, что при этом наречие already стоит после подлежащего, а не в конце предложения, да и смысл всей фразы несколько иной. Если вопрос со словом yet свидетельствует только о желании говорящего полу’чить ту или иную информацию (выполнено ли действие, завершён ли процесс), то аналогичный вопрос со словом already выражает удивление происходящим: Разве Джейн уже вернулась? Как, ты уже видел это фото? § 4. The present perfect tense (настоящее совершенное время) бывает двух видов: present perfect resuliative и present perfect durative. Present per feet resuliative (настоящее совершенное результативное время) используется для обозначения действия, завершившегося в прошлом, но связанного с настоящим через результат. При этом говорящему не важно, когда происходило данное действие, важен лишь его результат и связь результата с настоящим. I have lost my key. (I can’t open the door.) Don has j'ust begun speaking. (We can listen to his speech.) She hasn’t come yet. (She is not here.) В тексте на форму present perfect resuliative часто указывают такие слова и словосочетания, как just, already, yet, never, ever, today, this month, this year, this morning, this afternoon, this evening, lately, и некоторые другие. Так, например, форма present perfect также типична для предложений со словами и словосочетаниями before, many times, several limes, it*s the first {second, third) time: I’ve never seen him before. They’ve met many times. It’s the first time he’s become a champion. § 5. Present perfect durative (настоящее завершённое длительное), вторая разновидность настоящего совершенного времени, используется для обозначения действия, которое началось в прошлом и продолжается в момент речи (I have had these gloves for two years.). Данная глагольная форма часто используется с теми глаголами, которые в своём основном значении не имеют продолженной формы: to be, to have, to know, to own, to want, to love. Нередко эта глагольная форма встречается в предложениях с предлогами since (с определённого времени) и for (в течение опхюдслённого времени). При этом на русский язык подобные предложения переводятся при помощи глагола в настоящем времени: John has been in Moscow since last Sunday. (Джон находится в Москве с прошлого воскресенья.) We have known the truth for a long time. (Мы уже давно знаем правду.) Кроме рассмотренного выше сл^’чая, с1)орма present pei'fect durative служит для описания действия, которое началось в прошлом, продолжалось какое-то время в прошлом и только что закончилось. We have lived in this town for 5 years. (Мы прожили в этом городе 5 лет, но больше не живем.) Where have you been? (Где ты была?) § 6. Во времени present perfect фразы She's been to the shop и She's gone to the shop имеют разный смысл. В первом случае речь идёт о том, что кто-то побывал в магазине и вернулся, а во втором — о том, что кто-то отправился в магазин, но пока не вернулся обратно. § 7. Очень важно уметь различать случаи употребления времён present perfect и past simple. Время present perfect не используется, если в тексте есть указание на то, когда и где проходило действие. В этих случаях пользуются глагольной формой в past simple: The girl has just been to the zoo. — The girl was in the zoo last week. They have never sung this song. — They sang this song five minutes ago. Заметьте также, что, если ситуация начинается во времени present per fect^ её продолжение зачастую следует в одном из прошедших времён. Например: I have just seen а very good film. It was alx)ut a group of travellers. They were crossing the Atlantic. Или: — Will you believe it? WeVe won the game! — Really? What was the score? Who played best in your team? Вопросы, начинающиеся со слова when, никогда не строятся во времени present perfect, но обычно имеют гла1ол во времени past simple, например: When did you see James last time? When did they begin the show? § 8. Английские наречия just и just now являются маркерами разных грамматических времён; если just указывает на время present perfect, то just now на время past simple. Where is Peter? He’s just gone out. I talked to Sarah on the phone just now. § 9- Ho своему смыслу форма глшюла в present perfect durative весьма близка к глагольной форме present perfect progressive. Однако present per feet durative подчёркивает законченность действия, a present perfect progres sive — его продолжительность. Сравните: We have played 3 games this season. (B этом сезоне мы сыграли три игры.) We have been playing football since 4 o’clock. (Мы играем в футбол с четырёх часов.) Вопросительные предложения в форме present perfect progressive образуются с помощью изменения порядка слов в предложении и соответствующей вопросительной интонации. При этом вспомогательный глагол have или has выносится на первое место и ставится перед подлежащим: Has he really been doing lessons for an hour? (Он действительно делает уроки целый час?) В специальном вопросе предложение начинается с вопросительного слова или слов: How long have you been cooking? (Сколько времени ты готовишь?) В отрицательных предложениях к вспомогательному глаголу добавляется отрицание not {n't): They haven’t been talking to each other for years. (Они не разговаривают друг с другом много лет.) § 10. В английском языке существует такое явление, как фразовые глаголы, т. е. глаголы в сочетании с определёнными послелогами. Фразовые 131 132 глаголы весьма многочисленны и представляют определённую трудность для изучающих английский язык, так как значение фразового глагола далеко не всегда можно вывести из значений его составляющих. Видимо, по этой причине учащиеся зачастую стараются избегать их употребления. Однако обойтись без фразовых глаголов в современном английском языке невозможно: они широко используются в разговорной речи, в .электронных посланиях, технических текстах и т. д. Устная речь, лишённая фразовых г.чаголов, звучит неестественно. В учебнике для 7 класса вниманию учащихся предлагаются следующие фразовые глаголы: give away, give back, give out, give up hand in, liand back, hand out, hand over make up, make out, make off stay away (from), stay off, stay together, stay up take down, take in, take off, take up talk back, talk over, talk into, talk out of § 11. В современном английском языке глаголы часто образуются при помощи приставок: dis- (disagree, disappear, djsobey) i*e- (reread, rewrite, reopen) THE ADVERB (НАРЕЧИЕ) § 1. В предложении наречие может зггочнять а) глагол (Му granny doesn’t hear well.), б) имя прилагательное (She is rather small.) и в) наречие (Не didn’t sleep very well.). § 2. Русское наречие ещё в английском языке может быть представлено двумя словами: still и yet. Still обычно используется в предложении, чтобы передать значение « всё ещё»: It is still raining. She is still at school. Yet обозначает «ещё не» и используется в отрицательных предложениях: Не hasn’t done it yet. They haven’t come back yet. § 3. Наречия hard (тяжело, сильно) и hardly (едва) нужно уметь различать при употреблении. Сравните: to work hard, to fight hard. It was raining hard last afternoon. He hardly ever speaks English. I could hardly breathe. § 4. В речи слово enough может использоваться с различными частями речи. В предложении оно всегда употребляется перед именами существительными, но после имён прилагательных, глаголов и наречий. Сравните: enough + noun We don’t have enough time. They have got enough money. You haven’t made enough sandwiches for everybody. adjective 4 enough The skirt is not long enough. The boy is not strong enough to carry this box. ad verb + enough Jack never runs fast enough. I don’t think you work hard enough. verb + enough The pupils don’t practise enough to know English better. In my view nowadays children don’t read enough.
