In the first week we were there we went to an adventure park. We couldn't go on many rides because we were too young or too old or it was a water ride.

How to learn English
1. Ask your teacher to help you translate the words you don’t know or look them up in the dictionary.
2. Make lists of new words, and translate and transcribe them. Stick them up
around your home to help you learn them. Every time (каждый раз) you see your list, read five words out loud (вслух). Try to learn 2-3 words at a time (за один раз). You won’t remember more. You can also make cards. Write a word on a small card. On the other side of the card write the translation. Check yourself if you have time.
3. Ignore (не обращайте внимание) the words that you don’t need to know to understand the text. Use the context to help you guess the meaning of words. Find the verb and define its form. Use the dictionary only for important words that you can’t guess.
4. Before you listen, look for something that will help you understand the text. For example, the title, pictures. Look at the tasks and read the questions and try to guess the answers. You should have your own cassettes of this textbook and listen to them as often as you can.
5. Look at the Grammar Reference in this textbook. Your teacher will show you which pages you need to revise (повторить). If you don’t know how to say something, ask your teacher for help.
6. Revise rules of reading and the transcription symbols that will help you read any word.

Jerome K. Jerome
A comic song
We were a company of young Englishmen and one day our friend invited us to a party. It was a very nice party. We wore our best clothes, and we talked about smart things. We discussed philosophy and literature. Somebody recited a French poem after supper, and it was beautiful; and then a lady sang a ballad in Spanish that was also very nice.
We were very happy, all except two young students who had just returned from Germany. These ordinary young men found the party boring. They didn’t understand our brilliant conversation and our high-class tastes.
Then these two young men got up and said, “Our German professor, Herr Slossenn Boschen, has just come to the party. He is a famous person. He can sing the funniest comic song you have ever heard. He sang it in front of the German emperor and the Emperor had a lot of fun.”
We had never heard about Herr Slossenn Boschen, but nobody said that. The students didn’t give up. “You should listen to him,” they said. When he sings this song, his face is very serious. You may think that he is singing about something very sad. That makes it even funnier!”
1 0 Unit 4 Lessons 4, 5, 6
We wanted to have a good laugh and the students brought Herr Slossenn Boschen into the room. He came at once and sat down to the piano.
“Oh, it will be great. You’ll laugh,” whispered the two young men, as they passed through the room and stood behind the Professor’s back.
Herr Slossenn Boschen started to play. The beginning was very sad and even a bit creepy. But we just thought that it was a special German song and smiled.
In fact, I don’t understand German. I learned it at school, but forgot every word of it two years after I had left, and have felt much better since then. But I didn’t want to show my ignorance. Every intelligent person should understand German! So I had a very good idea. I looked at the German students and copied their behaviour. When they smiled, I smiled, when they laughed, I laughed too.
Very soon I noticed that a lot of people followed my example. They looked at the faces of the two young men and laughed when they laughed.
All went well, but the German professor did not look very happy. At first, when we began to laugh, he looked at us with a surprise in his eyes. But we laughed again and again and he looked more and more angry. We thought this very funny: we said his serious manner was half the humour. He finished and we cheered and applauded. We said it was the funniest thing we had ever heard in all our lives. “You should translate this wonderful song into English, so that everybody can enjoy it,” we said.
Then Herr Slossenn Boschen got up... He swore at us in German, and he danced, and he jumped and he called us all the bad words he knew. He said he had never been so angry in all his life. The song was not a comic song at all. It was a tragic ballad about a young girl who had given up her life to save her lover, but he died and met her ghost... I’m not sure of the details, but it was something very sad.
It was a bad situation. What could we say? We looked around for the two young men who had done this, but they had left the house quickly after the end of the song.
So that was the end of that party. We went home very quietly and tried not to look at each other. I have never listened to German songs since then.
In what order did the things happen?
a) Everybody laughed when the professor sang the song.
b) A friend invited a company of young Englishmen to a party.
c) Two students from Germany found the party boring.
d) After the professor had sung the song he got very angry.
e) Students discussed philosophy and literature.
f) A German professor sang a song.
g) A lady sang a ballad in Spanish.

It’s your family history book. Where did you find it?
It was in Emily's room. When her computer broke down, she was working on the book. She was so upset that she forgot about everything and ran to Andrew for help. She forgot to hide the book and lock the door.
So it’s Emily. I still don’t believe it. We must talk to her about it. I’m sure she’ll explain everything.
I’m afraid you won’t be able to talk to her.
What do you mean?
She’s gone. You won’t find her anywhere.

I think she came back to her room, didn’t find her book and understood everything. She got scared and ran away.
But before she left she had done a very good thing — she had translated the second part of our story.

Cleopatra’s Needle
A tall stone column stands by the river Thames in London. It is made of red granite, is about 21 metres high, weighs about 180 tons and is inscribed with hieroglyphs. It is called Cleopatra’s Needle because it was brought to London from Alexandria, the royal capital of Cleopatra, the Queen of Egypt.
It is the oldest object in London and it has been standing by the Thames for over a hundred years.
But a hundred years is a very small part of its long history.
The column was originally erected in the Egyptian city of Heliopolis on the orders of Thutmose III in 1450 B.C. It was put outside the temple of Osiris, the sun god.
The inscriptions were added about two hundred years later by Ramses II to commemorate his military victories. The column stood by the temple for many centuries, and time had no power over it.
But people did. Two thousand years ago they decided to move it. The Needle’s journey across continents and oceans began.
It was dragged through the desert to Alexandria in 12 B.C. when the Romans invaded Egypt and built their temples there. The column was put by the Roman temple. After three hundred years the Romans left Egypt and their great temple became a ruin, but the column wasn’t destroyed.
In 1819 the column was presented to the UK by the King of Egypt to commemorate the victory of Lord Nelson at the Battle of the Nile.
It was difficult to transport the column to England. The ships at that time were too small for the heavy column.
Finally, it was decided to build a ship around the column. A mad idea, but can you think of a better plan? The stone monument was placed in a metal tube. A deck was built on top of the tube, but there were no sails and no engine. It could only float, and was pulled through the water by a tugboat. The floating tube was named the Cleopatra.
Six brave men went to the sea on the Cleopatra. Their job was to steer and watch the tow rope.
After twenty days at sea there was a bad storm. Waves crashed high over the Cleopatra’s deck. The Cleopatra was going to sink, so people cut the tow rope and called to the tug-boat for help. The tug’s captain came just in time and saved the men. Everybody thought that the Cleopatra had been lost.
Months went by and there was no news of the monument. But the Cleopatra hadn’t sunk. To everyone’s surprise, she was found at sea, after floating on her own for three months.
In 1878 the Needle’s journey came to an end. It was put on the bank of the river Thames in London.
A collection of objects was buried under the column. The objects were chosen to show people in the future what life in London was like in 1878. Here is a list of some of the objects they bured:
1. a picture of Queen Victoria
2. a baby’s feeding bottle
3. British coins
4. a railway timetable
5. men’s clothes
6. a box of cigars
7. a cheap razor
8. the Bible
9. some women’s hairpins

A Diamond Ring
A merry group of friends was sitting on a restaurant terrace. The table was laid for four: two men and two women. The waiter was sent for and soon dinner was served. Everyone was eating fish, and when the dinner was finished, a woman said, “Diamonds and pearls are often found inside fish.” A lot of interesting stories were told until an old gentleman, who had been sitting quietly all the time, said, “Г11 tell you a story about fish.” Everyone agreed, so the old gentleman continued, “When I was a young man, I worked in a large company in New York. At that time I was in love with a pretty girl. Very soon we were engaged. About two months before our wedding I had been suddenly sent to England. I promised to write to my girlfriend because I had to stay in England longer than I had planned and I was very upset.
Finally, my work was done and 1 could go home.
I was very happy because I had bought a very expensive diamond ring for my future wife.
On my way to New York I was looking through the morning newspaper, which had been brought to me by the waiter. In the newspaper it was written that my girl was going to marry another man.
This made me so angry that I threw the ring into the sea.
A few days later when I was in a restaurant in New York, some fish was brought to the table. While I was eating, I felt something hard in my mouth. What do you think it was?”
“The diamond ring!” cried the friends. “No,” said the old gentleman, “it was a fishbone.”

This is the last story. We’re going to get the seventh key and find the treasure.
You don’t look very happy, Misha. Are you still thinking about Emily?
Yes, and I still don’t understand anything.
What don’t you understand?
Let’s start from the very beginning. Agent Cute was taking a secret note to your family when he met a woman on the train. He told the woman that the secret note was the key to the MacWizards’ treasure, and the woman stole the note from him. That’s right, isn’t it?
Yes, that’s right.
Then that’s the first problem. Agent Cute was talking to a woman on the train, and Emily is only a girl!
It’s not a big problem. Maybe she used some make-up.
OK, after that somebody broke into the MacWizards’ house to look for the old family manuscripts. The police spoke to Emily and found out that she had been in Spain at the time of the robbery.
That’s true. We didn’t think about that.
And then somebody kidnapped Rob. Do you believe that Emily did it? I don’t. Probably she had some help from her family.
I’ve checked that. Emily Wilson is American. It’s her first year in England and she has never been here before. All her family and friends are in America.
Yes, that’s very strange, but does it really matter, Misha? We have the book and we’ll soon get the treasure.
It is important. I like Emily and I want to understand what happened.

2 Read the story of a famous American writer O'Henry and answer the question; Why is the story colled "The gift of the Mogi"?
The gift of the Magi
One dollar and eighty-seven cents. That was all. Three times Della counted it. One dollar and eighty-seven cents. And the next day was Christmas. Della stood by the window of her cheap flat and cried. She had only $1.87 to buy Jim a present. Her Jim. She had been saving every penny she could for months. She had spent a lot of happy hours planning a nice present for him.
Something fine and rare and beautiful. Something worthy of her Jim. Suddenly Della ran up to the mirror. Her eyes were shining brilliantly. She pulled down her hair, and a cascade of brown waves fell to her shoulders.
Jim and Della had only two treasures in all the world. One was Jim’s gold watch, which had been his father’s and his grandfather’s. The other was Della’s hair.
Della put her hair up nervously and quickly. Then she put on her brown jacket and ran down the stairs and into the street.
Where she stopped at, the sign read: “Mrs Sofronie Hair Bought.” Della went in.
“Will you buy my hair?” asked Della.
Mrs Sofronie looked at her hair. “Twenty dollars,” she said.
“Give it to me quickly,” said Della.
The next two hours were very busy. Della was looking for a present for Jim.
At last she found one. It was surely made
for Jim. It was a platinum chain, simple and beautiful in design. It cost twenty-one dollars but it was the perfect match for the watch.
Jim didn’t look at his watch very often because he had to use an old leather strap instead of a chain, but with a new chain for his watch Jim could check the time in front of anyone.
When Della got home, she got out her curling irons and forty minutes later her head was covered with tiny curls that made her look like a schoolboy. She looked at herself in the mirror carefully and critically.
“I hope Jim won’t kill me,” she said to herself, “but what could I do? Oh! What could I do with a dollar and eighty-seven cents?” At 7 o’clock the coffee was made and the frying pan was hot and ready to cook the dinner.
Jim was never late. Della sat on the corner of the table near the door and waited. Then she heard his step, and she turned white for just a moment. She closed her eyes and whispered, “Please God, make him think I’m still pretty.”
The door opened and Jim stepped in. He looked thin and very serious. Poor boy, he was only twenty-two — and already had a family! He needed a new coat and a hat.
Jim stopped at the door. His eyes were fixed on Della, and there was an expression in them that she couldn’t read. Della panicked.
Unit 7 Lesson 6 55
It was neither anger nor surprise, neither pity nor horror.
She came up to him.
“Jim, darling,” she cried, “don’t look at me that way. I sold my hair because I wanted to give you a Christmas present. It’ll grow again, I promise. My hair grows awfully fast. Say “Merry Christmas!” Jim, and let’s be happy.”
“You’ve cut off your hair?” asked Jim.
“Cut it off and sold it,” said Della. “Don’t you like me anymore? I’m-still me without my hair, aren’t I?”
“You say your hair’s gone?” Jim whispered.
“Don’t look for it,” said Della. “It’s sold, I tell you — sold and gone. It’s Christmas Eve. Be nice to me, because it went for you. Maybe the hairs of my head were numbered,” she added, “but nobody can count my love for you.”
Jim took a package out of his overcoat pocket and threw it on the table.
“Don’t make any mistake, about me, Dell,” he said, “A haircut can’t make me like my girl any less. But if you open this box, you’ll probably understand me...”
Della took the box and looked inside. At first she screamed with joy, but then tears came to her eyes. In the box there were the combs, that Della had often looked at in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs were made of tortoise shell and were exactly the colour of Della’s beautiful hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and she never
hoped to have them. And now, they were hers, but her hair was gone.
Della looked up, “My hair grows so fast, Jim!” she said with a smile.
And then Della remembered about her present. She showed it to Jim and the platinum chain sparkled in the light.
“Isn’t it beautiful, Jim? You’ll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see them together.”
Jim didn’t say a word. He put his hands under the back of his head and smiled.
“Dell,” said he, “let’s put our Christmas presents away and keep them. I sold the watch to get the money for your combs. And now let’s have our Christmas dinner.”
The Magi were wise men — very wise men — who brought gifts to the Baby Jesus. They invented the tradition of Christmas presents. Their gifts were wise too. And here I told you a simple story of two stupid children in a flat who stupidly gave away their greatest treasures to buy presents for each other. But let me tell you just one thing, “Of all people who give gifts these two were the wisest. And people who do stupid things like that are the wisest. They are the Magi.”
O. Henry published his stories in magazines, but he was often late. One year O. Henry promised a Christmas story but he hadn’t turn up with it. The illustrator had to draw the pictures for the story but there was no story. Finally, the magazine sent the illustrator to find O. Henry. He was at home and hadn’t written anything. He hadn’t thought about the plot of the story either. But the illustrator needed to know the plot. “Give me an idea. What should I draw?” he asked. O. Henry thought for moment, then said, “Just draw a picture of a poor room with very little furniture.... On the bed, a man and a woman are sitting together. They are talking about Christmas. The man has a watch in his hand.... The woman has beautiful long hair. That’s all for now, but the story is coming.” Finally, he wrote the story in three hours. That is how one of the most magical Christmas stories in the world “The Gift of the Magi” was written.

The poem “Giraffe” is written in 1908 for another very famous poet, Anna Akhmatova. Gumilyov had been in love with her since they met in 1903 and wanted to marry Anna. But she didn’t love him and always said “no”. Gumilyov couldn’t live without her — he tried to commit suicide (совершить самоубийство). Finally, in 1910, Akhmatova agreed to marry him, but their marriage wasn’t a happy one. Soon after they got married, Gumilyov left his young wife and went to Africa. It was his first trip to Africa and he had a chance to see the places that he had described in his poem “Giraffe”.
