According to the narrator, what is one the best university in the world? 10. What have the Brits and the Americans got in common? The Americans and the British. What do we really think of each other? Before 1 went to the States for the first time, I used to think that the Americans were a crazy gang of people who ate huge hamburgers, drank lots of Coke and had no proper education. I thought that they spent most of their time in front of the TV. I also couldn’t forgive the Americans for buying up a lot of the nice buildings and structures in Europe. Did you know, for example, that the Americans bought our London Bridge? I used to think the Americans were secretly jealous of the British, that they wanted to have the quiet and peaceful lifestyle that we have, our traditions, and even our accent. My grandfather is a gardener and one day he was approached by a man from the States. The guy was admiring the grass on my grandfather’s lawn and asked him for some seeds. My grandfather was happy to help and gave the seeds to the man. A year later my grandfather received a letter from him. The American wrote that he had done everything properly and had cut and watered his lawn regularly, but it didn’t look as good as the English lawn. The man wanted to know what he was doing wrong. My grandfather smiled and wrote a quick answer. “Nothing wrong, my friend. Just keep working on your lawn for the next five hundred years.” I found it very funny, probably because it was true. ознакомительная копия - frenglish.ru Unit 3 Lessons 12, 13 17 Anyway, I finally went to the States and was surprised at how wonderful and warmhearted the Americans were. In fact, a lot of my ideas were wrong: these people do know how to have fun, and can make good and reliable friends. A lot of them watch what they eat and don’t eat hamburgers at all. And as far as their education, Harvard University is actually one of the best universities in the world. And yes, they do like our British accent, although, very often they make fun of it. I also found out that we have a lot in common. Both the Americans and the Brits are very sentimental about their animals, traditions, and their history. And finally we share a common language, so we can’t be so different, can we? Change these sentences using the Passive Voice. Use different verbs where necessary. 1.

Jerome PARTI T here were four of us — George, and William Samuel Harris, and myself, and my dog Montmorency. We were sitting in my room, smoking, and talking about how bad off we were* — bad from a medical point of view, of course. We sat there for half an hour and described our diseases to each other. I explained to George and William Harris how I felt when I got up in the morning; and William Harris told us how he felt when he went to bed; and George gave us a clever piece of acting which illustrated how he felt in the night. George IMAGINES he is ill, but there’s never anything really wrong with him, you know. However, I have really suffered from bad health since childhood. When 1 was a boy, the disease hardly ever left me for a day. My parents did not know then that it was my liver, and so they used to think it was laziness. “You lazy little devil,” they would say, “get up and do something for your living!” since they didn’t know that I was ill. And they didn’t give me pills; they gave me clumps* on the side of the head. And strangely, those clumps on the head often cured me ... for a while*. Those clumps had an amazing effect on my liver, and made me go straight away then and there, and do what was wanted to be done, without further loss of time. Maybe there was something to those simple, old-fashioned remedies after all.'* At this point Mrs Poppets knocked at the door to know if we were ready for supper. We smiled sadly at one another, and said we supposed we could try to swallow a bit. ' как плох каждый из нас ^ они давали мне подзатыльники ’на время * В конце концов, может быть, что-то было в этих простых старомодных средствах. 20 Unit 3 Lessons 16, 17, 18 ознакомительная копия - frenglish.ru [ 1 ]| Read Part II of the extract from the book by Jerome K. Jerome "Three Men in a Boat: To Say Nothing of the Dog" and answer the questions. 1. Who went on a sea trip to improve his health? 2. What did the man want to do when he got to Liverpool? 3. Who bought the return ticket? What for? 4. Is it possible to enjoy sea trip? How? 5. Why did a person on board a ship feel like Captain Cook, Sir Francis Drake, and Christopher Columbus? 6. Have you ever done a sea trip? Did it do you any good? iMO PART II и Wha. we want is rest,” said Harris. “Rest and a complete change,” said George. “Well, if you want rest and change, you can’t beat a sea trip,”® said Harris. I objected to the sea trip strongly. A sea trip does you good when you are going to have a couple of months of it, but, for a week, it is a waste of time. You start on Monday with the idea that you are going to enjoy yourself. You wave a casual goodbye to the boys on shore, light your if you were Captain Cook, Sir Francis Drake, and Christopher Columbus all rolled into one. On Tuesday, you wish you hadn’t come.® On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, you wish you were dead.'' On Saturday, you are able to swallow a little tea, and to sit up on deck, and answer with a weak smile when kindhearted people ask you how you feel now. On Sunday, you begin to walk again, and take solid food. And on Monday morning, with your bag and umbrella in hand, you wait to step ashore, you begin to really like it. My brother-in-law once went for a short sea trip to improve his health. He took a return ticket from London to Liverpool; and when he got to Liverpool, the only thing he wanted to do was to sell that return ticket. It was offered to everybody and was eventually sold for eighteen pence to a young man, who had just been advised by his doctor to go to the seaside, and take exercise. “Seaside!” said my brother-in-law and pressed the ticket into his hand. “You’ll have enough to last you a lifetime.” He himself ^— my brother-in-law — came back by train. He said the Northwestern Railway was healthy enough. * Если уж нам нужен отдых и перемена обстановки, то лучше всего морское путешествие. * Во вторник вы жалеете, что отправились в плавание. ^ В среду, четверг и пятницу вы жалеете, что не умерли. ознакомительная копия - frenglish,ru Unit 3 Lessons 16, 17, 18 21 So 1 was against the sea trip. Not, as I explained, because of myself. I have never been seasick, but I was afraid for George. George said he would be all right, but he would advise Harris and me not to think of it, as we would both be ill. But then George said: “Let’s go up the river.” He said we would have fresh air, exercise and quiet; the constant change of scene would occupy our minds (including what there was of Harris’s)®, and the hard work would give us a good appetite, and make us sleep well. Harris said he didn’t think George ought to do anything that would make him sleepier than he always was, as it might be dangerous. He said he didn’t very well understand how George was going to sleep any more than he did now, as there were only twenty-four hours in each day. Harris said, however, that the river would suit him. It suited me too, and Harris and 1 both said it was a good idea of George’s. We made a list of the things that we were going to need. On the next day, which was Friday, we got all of the things from the list together, and met in the evening to pack. “ включая и ту малость (разума), которой обладал Гаррис 2 What are the people in these pictures saying?

(It surprises me myself, sometimes, how many of these sub jects there are.) I impressed the fact upon George and Harris’, and told them that they had better leave the whole matter entirely to me*“. They agreed to the suggestion with extraordinary readiness. George lit his pipe and spread himself over the easy-chair, and Harris put his feet on the table and lit a cigar. This was not what I intended. My intention had been, of course, that I should be the boss, and that Harris and George should follow my instructions. The fact that they had misunderstood my plan in such a way irritated me. There is nothing that irritates me more than to see other people sitting and doing nothing when I’m working. However, I did not say anything, but started the packing. It seemed a longer job than 1 had thought it was going to be; but I got the bag finished at last, and I sat on it and strapped it. ^ Я убедил в этом Джорджа и Хэриса, им бы лучше предоставить все мне Unit 3 Lessons 16, 17, 18 23 ознакомительная копия - frenglish.ru “Ain’t you going to put the boots in?” said Harris. And 1 looked round, and found I had forgotten them. That’s typical Harris. He doesn’t say a word until I’ve actually shut the bag and strapped it. And George laughed. It made me mad. I opened the bag and packed the boots in; and then, just as I was going to shut it again, a horrible idea occurred to me. Had I packed my toothbrush? I don’t know how it is, but I never know whether I’ve packed my toothbrush. My toothbrush is a thing that haunts me when I’m travelling, and makes my life a misery. I dream" that I haven’t packed it. 1 wake up in a cold perspiration, and get out of bed and hunt for it. In the morning, I pack it before I have used it, and have to unpack again to get it. And it is always the last thing I take out of the bag and then I repack and forget it, and have to rush upstairs for it at the last moment. Of course I had to turn everything out now, and, of course, I could not find it. Of course, I found George’s and Harris’s eighteen times over, but I couldn’t find my own. I put the things back one by one, and held everything up and shook it. Then I found it inside a boot. I repacked once more. When I had finished, George asked if the soap was in. I said I didn’t care whether the soap was in or whether it wasn’t; and I shut the bag and strapped it, and found that I had packed my tobacco pouch in it, and had to reopen it. I finished at 10.50 p.m., and then there remained the baskets to do. Harris said that he and George could do them, and I agreed and sat down, and they started. They began in a light-hearted spirit. I made no comment; I only waited. When George is hanged, Harris will be the worst packer in this world; and 1 looked at the piles of plates and cups, and kettles, and bottles and jars, and pies and cakes, and tomatoes, and felt that the thing would soon become exciting. It did. They started with breaking a cup. That was the first thing they did. They did that just to show you what they COULD do, and to get you interested. Then Harris packed the strawberry jam on top of a tomato and squashed it, and they had to pick out the tomato with a teaspoon. And then it was George’s turn, and he stepped on the butter. I didn’t say anything, but I came over and sat on the edge of the table and watched them. It irritated them even more, I felt that. It made them nervous and excited, and they stepped on things, and put things behind them, and then couldn’t find them when they wanted them; and they packed the pies at the bottom, and put heavy things on top, and smashed the pies in. They upset salt over everything*^ and as for the butter! I never saw two men do more with a cube of butter in my whole life. After George had got it off his slipper, they tried to put it in the kettle. It didn’t go in, and what WAS in didn’t come out. They did scrape it out at last, and put it down on a chair, and Harris sat on it, and it stuck to him, and they went looking for it all over the room. “I know I put it down on that chair,” said George, staring at the empty seat. “I saw you do it myself, not a minute ago,” said Harris. Then they went round the room again looking for it; and then they met again in the centre, and stared at one another. “Most extraordinary thing I ever heard of,” said George. “So mysterious!” said Harris. Then George saw the back of Harris and noticed it. 'Why, here it is all the time,” he exclaimed. Where?” cried Harris, spinning round. “Stand still!” roared George, running after him. And they got it off, and packed it in the teapot. Montmorency was in it all, of course. If he can get anywhere where he is not wanted, and make people mad, and have things thrown at his head, then he feels his day has not been wasted. He came and sat down on things just ii-' <4^ Мне снится... Они все засыпали солью... 24 Uni(3 Lessons 16, 17, 18 ознакомительная копия - frenslish.ru i ! ! s 1 ,p I < > ?

He put his leg into the jam, and he pretended that the lemons were rats, and got into the basket and killed three of them before Harris could land him with the frying-pan.

I t was Mrs Poppets that woke me up next morning. She said: “Do you know that it’s nearly nine o’clock, sir?” “Nine of what?” 1 cried, starting up. “I thought you wanted to get up at six?” I woke Harris and George. Together we went downstairs to breakfast. Montmorency had invited two other dogs to come and see him off, and they were fighting on the doorstep. We calmed them with an umbrella, and sat down to breakfast. George got hold of the paper, and read us out the weather forecast, which promised “rain, cold, wet to fine.” I do think that this “weather-forecast” fraud is unbearable*®. It “forecasts” precisely what happened yesterday or at the day before, and precisely the opposite of what is going to happen today. U К $ 13 Мне думается, что то, что называют “предсказание погоды”, — это мошенничество 26 Units Lessons 16, 17, 18 ознакомительная копия - frenglish.ru -у>: I remember a holiday which was completely ruined one late autumn by the weather report of the local newspaper. “Heavy showers, with thunderstorms may be expected today,” it would say on Monday, and so we would give up our picnic, stay indoors all day, and wait for the rain. And people would pass the house, jolly and merry, and the sun would shine, and the sky would be cloudless. “Ah!” we said, as we watched them through the window, “they will all come home soaked!” And we chuckled about how wet they were going to get, and came back and stirred the fire, and got our books and made ourselves comfortable. By twelve o’clock it got really hot, and we wondered when those heavy showers and occasional thunderstorms were going to begin. “Ah! they’ll come in the afternoon,” we said to each other. “Oh, those people WILL get wet!” At one o’clock, the landlady would come in to ask if we weren’t going out, as it seemed such a lovely day. “No, no,” we replied, with a knowing chuckle. “WE don’t mean to get wet — no. no. And when the afternoon was nearly gone, and still there was no sign of rain, we tried to cheer ourselves up with the idea that it would come down all at once, and people would get more soaked than ever. But not a drop ever fell, and it finished a grand day, and a lovely night after it. The next morning we would read that it was going to be a “warm, fine day, much heat;” and we would dress ourselves in light clothes, and go out, and, half an hour later, it would start to rain hard, and a cold wind would blow, and both would keep on for the whole day, and we would come home with colds and rheumatism all over us, and go to bed. The weather is a thing that is a mystery to me. I never can understand it. (T\ Write out these sentences with would and then translate them. How does would change the meaning of the sentence?

There was a taU plate of fhiit in front of him, and veiy carefully, in his “special” way, he was peeling an orange. He must have felt that shock of recognition in her as he looked up and met her eyes. Incredible! He didn’t recognize her! She smiled, he frowned. She came towards him. He closed his eyes, but as he opened them his face lit up. He laid down the orange and pushed back his chair, and she took her little warm hand out of her muff and gave it to him. “Vera!” he exclaimed. “How strange. Really, for a moment I didn’t recognize you. Please sit down? You’ve had lunch? Won’t you have some coffee?” She hesitated, but of course she meant to. “Yes, I’d like some coffee.” And she sat down opposite him. “You’ve changed. You’ve changed very much,” he said, staring at her. ‘You look so well. I’ve never seen you look so well before.” “Really?” She raised her veil. “I don’t feel very well. I can’t bear this weather, you know.” “Ah, no. You don’t like the cold...” “Hate it.” She shuddered. “And the worst of it is that the older one grows...” He interrupted her. “Excuse me,” and tapped on the table for the waitress. “Please bring some coffee and cream.” To her: ‘You are sure you won’t eat anything? Some fruit, perhaps. The fruit here is very good.” No, thanks. Nothing.” Then that’s settled.” And smiling just a bit too broadly he took up the orange again. “You were saying — the older one grows...” “The colder,” she laughed. But she was thinking how well she remembered that trick of his. How he used to interrupt her and how it used to exasperate her six years ago. She used to feel then as though he, quite suddenly, in the middle of what she was saying, put his hand over her lips, turned from her, attended to something different, and then took his hand away, and with just the same slightly too broad smile, gave her his attention again.* a- (4.1 ' Тогда она чувствовала себя так, как будто он внезапно в середине того, о чем она говорила, приложил палец ей к губам, отвернулся, занялся чем-то другим, а потом убрал свою руку и с той же самой, слегка преувеличенно широкой улыбкой вернул ей свое внимание.

And there is another thing about you that is not changed at all — your beautiful voice — your beautiful way of speaking. You have only to say one word and I would know your voice among all other voices. I don’t know what it is — I’ve often wondered — what makes your voice such a haunting memory... Do you remember that first afternoon we spent together at Kew Gardens? You were so surprised because I did not know the names of any flowers. I still hear your voice say: ‘Geranium, marigold, and verbena.’ And those three words are all I recall of some forgotten, heavenly language... You remember that afternoon?” “Oh, yes, very well.” Yet, what had remained in her mind of that afternoon was another scene. A great many people were taking tea in a Chinese pagoda, and he was behaving like a maniac about the wasps — he tried to wave them away, flap at them with his straw hat. The sniggering tea drinkers had been delighted. And she had suffered. But now, as he spoke, that memory faded. His memory was the truer. Yes, it had been a wonderful afternoon, full of geranium and marigold and verbena, and — warm sunshine. And then another memory came. She saw herself on a lawn. He lay beside her, and suddenly, after a long silence, he rolled over and put his head in her lap. “I wish,” he said, in a low, troubled voice, “I wish that I had taken poison and were about to die — here now!”* She leaned over him. “Ah, why do you say that? I could not say that.” But he gave a kind of soft moan, took her hand and held it to his cheek. “Because I know 1 am going to love you too much — far too much. And I shall suffer so terribly, Vera, because you never, never will love me.” ^ -Ж ^ ✓ ^ Хотел бы, чтобы я принял яд и умирал бы прямо здесь и сейчас. ознакомительная копия - frenslish.ru Unit 4 Lessons 16, 17, 18 49 He was certainly far better looking now than he had been then. Now he looked like a man who has found his place in life. He must have made money, too. His clothes were of very good quality, and at that moment he pulled a Russian cigarette case out of his pocket. Won’t you smoke?” Yes, I will.” “They look very good.” “I think they are. They are made for me by a little man in St. James’s Street. I don’t smoke very much. I’m not like you — but when I do, they must be delicious, very fresh cigarettes. Smoking isn’t a habit wdth me; it’s a luxury—like perfume. Are you still so fond of perfumes? Ah, when I was in Russia...” She broke in: “You’ve really been to Russia?” “Oh, yes. I was there for over a year. Have you forgotten how we used to talk of going there?” “No, I’ve not forgotten.” He gave a strange half laugh and leaned back in his chair. “Isn’t it curious? I have really carried out all those journeys that we planned. Yes, I have been to aU those places that we talked of. In fact, I have spent the last three years of my life travelling all the time. Spain, Corsica, Siberia, Russia, Egypt. The only country left is China, and I mean to go there, too.” As he spoke, she felt the strange beast that had slept so long within her soul wake up, jump to its feet and fix its hungry stare upon those far away places.® But all she said was: “How I envy you.” He accepted that. “It has been,” he said, “very wonderful — especially Russia. Russia was all that we had imagined, and far, far more. I even spent some days on a river boat on the Volga. Do you remember that boatman’s song that you used to play?” “Yes.” It began to play in her mind as she spoke. Do you ever play it now?” No, I’ve no piano.” He was amazed at that. “But what has become of your beautiful piano?” She made a little grimace. “Sold. Ages ago.” He let it go at that.*' “That river life,” he went on, “is something quite special. After a day or two you cannot realize that you have ever known another. And it is not necessary to know the language — you eat with them, pass the day with them, and in the evening there is that endless singing.” As he spoke she heard the boatman’s song, loud and tragic, and saw the boat floating on the darkening river... “Yes, I should like that,”® said she, stroking her muff. u и ^ Пока OH говорил, она почувствовала, как странный зверь, который так давно спал в ее душе, проснулся, вскочил на ноги и голодным взглядом уставился на все эти далекие места.

And then the peasants are so splendid. They are such human beings — yes, that is it. Even the man who drives your carriage has some real part in what is happening. 1 remember the evening a party of us, two friends of mine and the wife of one of them, went for a picnic by the Black Sea. We took supper and champagne and ate and drank on the grass. And while we were eating the coachman came up. ‘Have a dill pickle,’ he said. He wanted to share with us. That seemed to me so right, so — you know what 1 mean?” And she seemed at that moment to be sitting on the grass beside the mysteriously Black Sea, black as velvet. She saw the carriage, and the little group on the grass, their faces and hands white in the moonlight. Apart from them, with his supper in a cloth on his knees, sat the coachman. “Have a dill pickle,” said he, and although she was not certain what a dill pickle was, she saw the greenish glass jar and sucked in her cheeks; the dill pickle was terribly sour... “Yes, I know perfectly what you mean,” she said. “What a marvelous listener you are,” he said. “When you look at me with those wild eyes 1 feel that I could tell you things that I would never breathe to another human being.” Was there just a hint of mockery in his voice or was it her imagination?^ She could not be sure. “Before I met you,” he said, “I had never spoken of myself to anybody. How well I remember one night, the night that I brought you the little Christmas tree and told you all about my childhood. And of how 1 was so miserable that I ran away and lived under a cart in our yard for two days. And you listened, and your eyes shone, and 1 felt that you had even made the little Christmas tree listen too, as in a fairy story.” But of that evening she had remembered a little pot of caviar. It had cost seven and sixpence. While she ate it he watched her, delighted and shocked. “No, really, that is eating money. You could not get seven shillings into a little pot that size.” And he had begun some complicated calculations... But now goodbye to the caviar. The Christmas tree was on the table, and the little boy lay under the cart with his head on the yard dog. “The dog was called Bosun,” she cried delightedly. But he did not follow. “Which dog? Your dog? I don’t remember a dog at all.” “No, no. I meant the yard dog when you were a little boy.” He laughed. “Was he? Do you know I had forgotten that. It seems such ages ago. I cannot believe that it is only six years. 1 was such a kid then.” He Был ли в его голосе намек на насмешку или ей показалось? - . ♦'ь ознакомительная копия - frenglish.ru Unit 4 Lessons 16, 17, 1 8 51 j 'j j y^ drummed on the table. “IVe often thought how I must have bored you. And now I understand so perfectly why you wrote to me as you did, although at the time that letter nearly finished my life. I found it again the other day, and I laughed as I read it. It was so clever, such a true picture of me.” He glanced up. “You’re not going?” “Yes, I am afraid I must,” she said, and managed a smile. Now she knew that he had been mocking. “Ah, no, please,” he pleaded. “Don’t go just for a moment,” and he caught up one of her gloves from the table and clutched at it as if that would hold her. “I see so few people to talk to nowadays, that I have turned into a sort of barbarian,” he said. “Have 1 said something to hurt you?” “Not a bit,” she lied. But as she watched him draw her glove through his fingers, gently, gently, her anger really did die down, and besides, at the moment he looked more like himself of six years ago... “What I really wanted then,” he .said softly, “was to make myself into a sort of carpet for you to walk on so that you need not be hurt by the sharp stones and mud that you hated. And one day I wished to turn into a magic carpet and carry you away to all those lands you wanted to see.” As he spoke she lifted her head as though she drank something; the strange beast in her bosom began to purr... “I felt that you were more lonely than anybody else in the world,” he went on, “and yet, perhaps, that you were the only person in the world who was really, truly alive.” He murmured, stroking the glove. Ah, God! What had she done! How had she dared to throw away her happiness like this? This was the only man who had ever understood her. Was it too late? Could it be too late? She was that glove that he held in his fingers... “And then the fact that you had no friends and never had made friends with people. How I understood that, for neither had I. Is it just the same now?” “Yes,” she breathed. “Just the same. I am as alone as ever.” “So am I,” he laughed gently, “just the same.” Suddenly with a quick gesture he handed her back the glove. “But what seemed to me so mysterious then, is perfectly clear to me now. And to you, too, of course. ... It simply was that we were such egoists, so wrapped up in ourselves that we hadn’t a comer in our hearts for anybody else. Do you know, I began studying a Mind System when I was in Russia, and I found that we were not peculiar at all. It’s quite a well-known form of... ” She had gone. He sat there, thunder-struck...
