Diary of Camp Pineland 3 June London_____________
Do you ever get the feeling that your life is just about to begin? Гт feeling like that right now as my younger brother Dima and I are standing in London’s Heathrow International Airport. Dima and I are spending the summer at an American summer camp. Yes, that’s right. London is just a stopover in our trip. It’s also the meeting point for some campers who are flying to the USA from Europe.
At the moment we are waiting for our counsellor. He or she is going to come and take us to our plane to California. We are here sitting at the meeting point, wearing the T-shirts we have received from the camp so that the counsellor can recognize us easily.
The idea for our great trip started with a film I saw about a summer camp in America one winter evening. That’s when I got the dream to go to one of those camps. Normally I do the same things every summer: I spend June with my granny in Saratov, then in July my parents and I go to Turkey and in August I get a lot of time to go out with my friends and get ready for the next school year. If you say, “That’s not so bad,” I’ll tell you, “It’s boring.” It took me two years to make my dream happen — I found the camp, talked to my parents, saved up and then found out that I still didn’t have enough money. Then I talked to my parents again. Finally, Dad offered to pay for most of the trip on condition that Dima could come with me! Dima is fourteen and this year our parents had nothing but trouble with him. He got involved with some bad kids at school, so no wonder Mum and Dad wanted to send him as far away from home as possible. Call me a bad sister, but I wasn’t excited. I didn’t want to spend this summer babysitting my bro, but that was the deal with Dad, so I had to live with it.
After all, it was going to be my perfect summer anyway, so I knew nothing could spoil it.
Unit 1 Lessons 1, 2, 3
When we arrived in London two days ago, I was ready for my big adventure. I wanted to visit new places, improve my English and make new friends. Our mother’s old friend works in London, so she gave us the opportunity to see this great city. We enjoyed every minute and didn’t feel homesick at all. After all, London is only about a four-hour flight from Moscow. It’s round the corner in comparison to California. But now as we are waiting in Heathrow, I’m starting to ask myself some scary questions. Will I be able to understand American English? What if I don’t make any new friends? Will there be any wild animals in the woods around our camp? What if our counsellor doesn’t turn up today?
Dima; Are you OK, Lisa? You’re not acting like yourself.
Lisa: I know. I’m nervous. Where is our counsellor?
Dima: Just relax. Somebody will come soon. Do you want to read my magazine? It’s cool.
Lisa: Thanks, little bro. I’m fine. I’m reading a very interesting book in English, but I just can’t concentrate right now. Do you see those guys over there? They’re wearing the camp T-shirts too.
Dima: Yeah, I see them. And they are looking for somebody also. Oh, look! They are coming over here now.
First boy: Excuse me, are you waiting for us? We are catching a flight to San Francisco.
Lisa: So are we. But we are waiting for our counsellor. By the way, my name is Lisa Korolyova. And this is my brother Dima. We are from Russia.
Unit 1 Lessons 1, 2, 3
First boy: Pleased to meet you. I’m David Hunt.
I’m not your counsellor. I’m a camper just like you, but I’m responsible for taking you to California. And this is my friend Charlie Rose.
Charlie: Hi, guys. Nice to meet you.

At Heathrow Airport 1
David: Hey, how much baggage have you got? Shall I get you a trolley?
Dima: No, you needn’t, thanks. We can do without one.
David: Well, we must get organized. Have you got your tickets and passports? Lisa: Yes, we’ve got everything.
David: Great. Our flight number is 4495. Let’s go to the check-in desk. I’m afraid we’ll have to join this huge queue. Heathrow is known for its queues. Charlie: What kind of ticket have you got?
Dima; Just a standard one. Why? Are there different types?
Charlie: Yeah. See, I’ve got an electronic ticket. It’s got a lot of advantages. For one thing, it’s always in the airline’s computer system, so you can’t lose it.
Great, isn’t it? *
Dima: But how do you get an electronic ticket?
Charlie: Well, you don’t even have to leave the house to get one. You can do it all online. Go first to the airline’s site and make a reservation.
Then if you are happy with the price, you pay for your ticket with a credit card. In the end they send you a written confirmation to your e-mail address, and you’re done.
David: Another advantage of the electronic ticket is that there are often many special offers from different airlines online, so your ticket may be really cheap.

Thank you. I’m just looking for your US visa... OK, here it is. That’s fine. Have you got any baggage to check in?
Just this suitcase.
Please put it on the scales for me. (after a pause) Right. Twenty-six kilos! I’m afraid our weight limit is twenty-three kilos per person.
I’ve got two really heavy books which I’m taking as souvenirs.
Unfortunately, we’ll have to charge you 25 pounds for your excess weight. Please go to that desk over there to pay the extra charge, (after a pause) Would you like to sit in the aisle or by the window?
I don’t mind. I’m travelling with my friends, so I just want to sit together with them.
Oh! In that case, let me check you in all together. And why don’t you put your heavy books in your friends’ bags? Then you won’t have to pay the extra 25 pounds.
Unit I Lessons4, 5, 6 17
Lisa: Thank you very much. This is very kind of you.
Member of the airport staff: Not at all. Here are your boarding passes. You are

Right. Where do we go from here?
Here is the sign for Departures. Let’s follow it.
How about a coffee before we go? I’m still not awake.
No, let’s hurry up! There are a lot of shops and cafes everywhere in Heathrow. We’ll be able to have a coffee later. Remember, security checks take forever!
Yes, the security check may take us a long time and I want to be able to do my duty-free shopping. Things are a bit cheaper there and I need some souvenirs for my American friends.
Here we are. Oh, no. There’s another queue here.
We must get ourselves ready while we are waiting. We don’t want the other passengers to have to wait for us! Take off your jackets! Empty your pockets! Get rid of all liquids.
Dima: Uh-oh. I’ve got a small bottle of Juice. Do I need to get rid of it? David: Yes, you do. No liquids are allowed in the hand baggage. So drink it up. Has anyone got any sharp objects?
Lisa: I’ve got a pair of scissors.
18 Unit] Lessons4, 5, 6
David; I’m afraid you’ll have to throw them away. You’ll be able to buy
another pair when we get to California. Right, and I’ve got a laptop which I must unpack. They may want to examine it.
Charlie: Yes, and you may have to take off your shoes. These security officers are a real pain in the neck, aren’t they?
David: You mustn’t say that! These people work hard to make sure that your flight is safe and nobody tries to blow up the plane. After the security check, we go to passport control. It’ll be quick. Then everybody may go where they want, but remember, we must get to our gate on time. We mustn’t be late for boarding.
Lisa: Oh, no. Look at the information board! Our flight is delayed.
David: That’s too bad. Let me find out how long the delay is.

What’s “Murphy’s Law”?
It’s a saying that means “If anything can go wrong, it will go wrong.” But we don’t know if he’ll come back in five minutes or in an hour and I’m hungry. Doesn’t anybody want something to eat?
I’d like a sandwich, but I haven’t got any cash on me.
I can lend you some money if you want.
Thank you, but my brother and I try not to borrow money from people. In fact. I’ve got a credit card. I just don’t know how to use it.
I’ll show you how to use it if you come with me.
That’ll be great, thanks.
Right. Here is the machine. Insert your card into the machine. Choose the language. Now enter your PIN code. Do you remember yours?

You should remember your PIN by heart. If somebody finds it in your notebook, they can take your money. Now I’ll look away and you enter your PIN. And don’t forget to press the confirm button at the end.
Right. I’ll tell you as soon as I’m ready... Oops! I’ve made a mistake.
The machine is asking me whether I want to try again.
Say yes, just try again, but be very careful this time. If you enter the wrong PIN number three times, the cash machine won’t return your card.
But I’m afraid to try again. If the machine swallows my card. I’ll have no money at all.
But you haven’t got any cash. What will you do when you need to buy something?
All right, all right. I’ll try again. (A minute later) They accepted my PIN. What do I do next?
Choose the sum of money you want to take out. Then wait for your card and your cash.
(collects the cash) Wow, that was easy! Let’s go and get something to eat.
I think it’s too late. “Murphy’s Law” is at work.
Why? What’s happened?
Well, it’s good news. Our counsellor has arrived and has brought four more campers with him.
I’m sorry you won’t have the time to buy a snack because of me.
Never mind. Let’s hope they’ll give us some dinner when we get to the camp.

On the way to Camp Pineland..
4 June Somewhere in California
“We strongly recommend to take our bus to the camp since lifelong friendships sometimes start there and then.” This is what our camp brochure said. So when we got to the bus, Dima and I sat in the very centre and got ready to make new friends. “ ^
Four new campers introduced themselves to us. There was Daniel from Australia, Pauline from New York, Lukas from Germany and Mary from Canada. We talked about our flights to the USA for a while but soon everybody got quiet. David and Charlie were still talking to each other in very fast English while Daniel was sleeping in the corner. A German boy was sitting in the front of the bus. He was obviously enjoying the
Unit 2 Lessons 1, 2 49
breathtaking views of the mountains. Mary, the Canadian, was listening to her MP3 player and Pauline was reading a teen fashion magazine. I waited and waited, but nothing, absolutely nothing interesting happened on the bus. Dima was sitting next to me. He was listening to his favourite pop music which drives me mad, but still I was glad he was there with me. It’s strange, but I was thinking about my best friend back home and how much I was already missing her.
My best friend is Natasha. We didn’t click straight away. I still remember the first day she came to school really well. Our first lesson was Literature. I was in the middle of answering a question when the door opened and Natasha came in with our school director. 1 immediately forgot what I wanted to say and got a bad mark. 1 was very angry with this new girl and became even angrier when I was told I had to share a table with her. I like to sit alone, but I soon realized that it was lucky to have the new girl nearby.
Natasha was very smart and got really good marks from the start. However, she didn’t show off. In fact she seemed to feel awkward about her good marks. She often whispered the right answer to me when I turned to her for help. I was very grateful to Natasha, but when I tried to talk to her about her good marks and how cool she had been, she just nodded and walked away.
I think Natasha felt a bit lonely. The other girls didn’t bully her, but they didn’t ask her to join our games either. Natasha spent every break alone in the classroom. She read books and ate her usual sandwich. It was that sandwich that actually started our friendship.
50 Unit 2 Lessons 1, 2
Natasha’s mum made her a huge sandwich every day. She put a bit of everything from the fridge in it: sometimes a bit of egg, some cheese and ham, some tomatoes, onions and cucumbers and a bit of mayonnaise. Once I even noticed some potatoes in it. Some of the girls found those sandwiches very funny and giggled behind Natasha’s back. I feel ashamed of myself now when I remember that I often giggled with them.
I was really good at drawing. I always drew little pictures for our class’s poster. They were usually very funny and they weren’t supposed to be mean. So that month I drew a big picture of our class. I drew myself in my usual outfit which was already too short for me, and I drew my friend Sveta with mice on her head because she loves animals, and of course I drew Natasha with her big sandwich and a book. During the break my classmates were having a laugh at my picture and I noticed that Natasha was laughing with them too. She obviously had a good sense of humour.
The next day I was the first to come to school. As I was passing my poster, I noticed that somebody had changed it. Natasha’s sandwich had been filled with rubbish: fish tails, bones, tins and plastic bags. I needed to do something before anyone else could see it. But just as I was about to change it with my pencil, Natasha walked into the classroom. She looked at the poster and then at the pencil in my hand and ran out of the room.
She didn’t come to school the next day, so I decided to phone her. But she hung up on me when she heard my voice, so I called her again “Natasha, please listen to me. I didn’t draw all that rubbish,”
I started to say quickly.
“It doesn’t matter, Lisa,” she answered sadly.
“It matters to me,” I said. “It’s OK,”
Natasha said. “I believe you. I have to go now. Bye!”
I felt disappointed, however I didn’t want to hang up. “Wait!” I said. “If you believe me, there is a chance that one day we will be friends.”
Natasha was really surprised with my words and slowly she started getting really interested in the conversation. On the phone she was more relaxed and we talked
Unit 2 Lessons 1, 2 51
for the whole evening. Now I realize that on that day I found my best friend in the world. It’s not that we always agree with each other about everything — of course not. We sometimes fall out over the smallest thing, but then we can’t go to sleep until we make up. I know that I can always rely on Natasha and that she will never let me down. We’ve always stuck together since that day. That’s what matters.
And then my thoughts were interrupted. The bus stopped. We had arrived at Camp Pineland.

“Dima and I got split up the moment we arrived. To make it worse, they’ve taken away our mobile phones. Why? Because they think it’ll help us fit in more quickly. It’s one of the most important rules of the camp. So now Dima and I won’t even be able to exchange text messages to cheer each other up. And how will I know if he gets in trouble?”
64 Unit 2 Lessons 6, 7, 8
This is what I was thinking to myself as one of the camp girls was taking me to my cabin. It’s called “Cherokee” after the Indian tribe. I was getting really tired of walking when we finally stopped at the door of a rather shabby-looking cabin. Behind the door I heard two loud voices talking excitedly.
— Oh, no! What have they done?
— They’ve split us up!
— They’ve put Jennifer in the Mohicans and we’ve got a new girl in our cabin!
— It’s Meredith Nutt who did this.
— Yes, that woman has hated us since we met years ago.
— How could she do this? We have been going to this camp since we were ten and we have always been together.
— Calm down. Belle. The camp can’t always do what we want. I’m sure they tried their best.
At that moment, the girl who had taken me to the cabin, pushed the door open. I walked in and looked at the girls — my cabinmates. A very pretty African-American girl was sitting in the corner. Next to her there was a very tall and thin girl in pyjamas. She had a long nose, a big mouth and very clever eyes. The bed at the window belonged to a very beautiful blond who hardly turned in my direction and then, to my surprise, the fourth girl in the room was Mary, the Canadian. She grinned nervously when she saw me.

It’s OK. I understand.
Well, meet my friends then. This is Cindy, our pretty genius from South Carolina. And this is Arabella, but we call her Belle because she is our blond beauty. Belle is the only local girl in this cabin, the rest of us have travelled thousands of miles to spend this summer here together. And this is Hailey who is obviously ready for bed since she is in her pyjamas. Hailey is from Boston. So that’s everyone!
Now tell us about yourself.
My name is Lisa and I’m fifteen years old. What else can I say?
Have you really come all the way from Russia?
Yes, I have.
That’s exciting. My parents used to tell me that there were bears in the streets of Russian cities and towns. Is this true?
No! We don’t have bears in our streets.
Well, the funny thing is that here we do — at least at camp sometimes.
Are you joking?
Not at all. Have you had a look at the camp yet?
Not yet. It had got dark by the time we arrived.
But hasn’t the Crunch spoken to you?
Do you mean Mrs Nutt, the head counsellor? No, she hasn’t. When I saw her, she just told me to go to this cabin.
That was it.
Well, just wait for tomorrow. She is going to make her big speech about all the dangers at camp. She’ll frighten you to death, trust me on that, (yawns) And now it’s time for me to go to bed. It was a really big day today.
Umm... is this really where we... sleep?

The dining hall was full of people. Everybody was hugging, shaking hands, and clapping each other on the back. I got the impression that all the campers had known each other for a long time. I felt very lonely.
After a very basic breakfast of eggs, orange juice and hot chocolate,
I decided to wait for Dima and discuss how we would meet, but instead I bumped into David. He told me that Dima had finished his breakfast earlier, but he hadn’t had time to wait for me. I got a bit upset. My little bro had never been my best friend, but he was the only person I knew in this camp. I wondered how he was feeling. Didn’t he want to talk?
Obviously I looked totally miserable, so David smiled and sat down next to me.
David: Look, Lisa. Let me tell you about your brother. He is in one of the boys’ cabins called Dakota and you can visit him in your free time. Follow his example — look for friends. I myself have spent every summer of my life in different camps since I was seven. So I know it’s hard in the beginning. May I give you some advice? Lisa: Thanks, David, I’d like that.
David: OK, so here goes piece of advice number 1: Don’t worry about your brother — he’ll be fine and if he gets in trouble, you can be here to sort his problems out. Think about the fact that you are lucky to have him so near, and don’t get jealous if one day you’ll find out that your little brother has become the most popular guy in camp.
Of course. I’d be so happy for him. I’m really not a jealous type, you know.
Lisa:

David: OK. Good for you. Piece of advice
number 2: Say “hello” to everybody.
I know it’s hard to believe, but if you just say “hello” and introduce yourself, it can be enough to start a new friendship. Other campers are feeling the same way and are looking for new friends too. So don’t wait too long. Start now or it’ll be a lot more difficult later. And that brings us to piece of advice number 3: Start looking for friends in your cabin. You are going to spend most of your time at camp with your cabinmates, so do your best to get to know them. Try to find things that you have in common: tell your cabinmates about yourself and ask them questions. Be sympathetic, be friendly, be easygoing, be trustworthy and most of all — be fun to be around.
But here is the problem, David. My cabinmates aren’t so happy to have me in the cabin. They have known each other for many years.
Were they nasty or unfriendly to you?
No, they were nice. One of them even lent me her sleeping bag. You see? By the way, my piece of advice number 4 is: Accept help. If you let somebody help you, you may become friends later because of it.
But all my cabinmates are already friends and they don’t need any new ones.
I’ve seen situations like this all the time. You can’t have too many friends. Piece of advice number 5: Always be yourself. I’ve only known you for a day, but I have noticed that you are smart and fun to be around. I’m sure you have a lot of talents. Your personality is what will help you make friends, so don’t be shy. Yeah, I know. I’ll try to follow your advice, but I’m still not sure. Even if you don’t find close friends in your cabin, there are always other people in other cabins. So piece of advice number 6 is: Catch the spirit. Sign up for different activities and take part
74 Unit? Lessons9, 10
in all the cool games that Pineland offers. There are a lot of clubs for you to join: “Newspaper”,
“Nature”, “Football”, “Art”,
“Music”, “History”, wild animals and others. Be in the centre of all the events: when people do something together- and have common interests, they usually get along and become friends.
Lisa: But I get the impression that
everybody in this camp has known each other forever.
David: Oh, but this is not true. Last year I myself came here
for the first time but I made great new friends and kept in touch with them during the school year. Now, listen. My final and very important piece of advice number 7 is: When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Find out about the history and traditions of Camp Pineland. Learn the camp songs, the camp jokes and the camp dances. And most importantly, learn the unwritten rules: be loyal to your cabin, never speak badly about them and never praise another cabin, be prepared to share your clothes and snacks, and don’t even think of smiling at somebody else’s boyfriend. That would be the WORST MISTAKE EVER.
When David finished this last sentence, we both noticed Belle and the rest of my cabinmates. The shocked expressions on their faces let me know that I had probably just made the WORST MISTAKE EVER.
“Oh, hi. Belle,” said David with surprise, “Hi, girls. Where’ve you been?”

1 ! Read the page from Lisa's diary and put the verbs in brackets in the right form.
5 June Camp Pineland
I spent the rest of the day alone. The idea of going back to my cabin was scary. Surely Belle and her fiends wouldn’t want to talk to me after they (see) me with David.
1 (return) to my cabin just before the opening ceremony to change my clothes. When 1 entered the room, Mary (run) up to me. “Finally!” she (exclaim).
“Where you (be)? We (wait) for you. C’mon, get dressed and don’t forget to wear something warm. There’ll be a cookout instead of our usual dinner.” To my surprise, all my cabinmates were quite friendly and even (give) me advice on what to wear. 1 (not understand) anything, but 1 (have) no time to think. We (have to) hurry up and go to the ceremony.
The ceremony (take) place just outside the dining hall. It (start) with raising the flag which (remind) me of our summer camps in Russia where we (use to) do the same thing. And then everybody (start) singing.

It (be) a camp song and most of the campers (know) it by heart. I (look) around to see how many new people there (be) and soon (realize) that I was not the only one. I (cheer) up and (decide) to ask Mary to write the words of the song down for me. Then the camp director (step) into the centre and (welcome) everybody to a new year in Camp Pineland. I (like) his speech. It (be) short and witty. When the director (finish) his speech, a tall woman with grey hair (take) his place. She (look) familiar and I (remember) that I just (see) her yesterday. It (be) Meredith Nutt, the head counsellor. I (hear) a sigh next to me. It was Mary. She (whisper) into my ear; “We call her the Crunch. She is the most pompous person I ever (know) and her speech is always the longest. So prepare to sit here for a while. Every year we (play) a little game. Each of us (write) one of the Crunch’s favourite words on a list and we (count) how many times she (say) them during her big speech. The one whose word (get) mentioned the most times is the winner. My pick this year is: pride. Just count the words with me. Belle (choose) lifelong friendships, Hailey (take) supervision, and Cindy, safety.’’

And then there came the speech. It was a bit long and very boring, but for new campers it was also very informative. The worst thing about it was that there were some words that I didn’t understand.
***
“Hello boys and girls! Welcome to another wonderful and unforgettable summer at Camp Pineland. I have no doubt that each and everyone of you will make us proud this year.
I am aware that this year we’ve got a lot of young adults from all over the world. So let me fill you in on some very important camp information.
Pineland was founded in 1950. (1) Tradition is what we value most of all. Many of the campers’ parents used to be Pineland campers themselves. Some of our camp songs have been a tradition for nearly 60 years.
Pineland consists of 40 cabins. (2) Notice that there is no electricity in your cabins. We believe that campfires and flashlights will make your
82 Unit 2 Lessons 11,12
camp adventure even more exciting. Our small cabins are a part of the camp’s philosophy. Each summer a cabin becomes a nev^ family under the supervision of a counsellor who helps the campers start lifelong friendships. Boys’ and girls’ cabins are located on different sides of the camp. I’d like to warn our senior campers that regular inspections will be carried out to make sure that nobody goes out for romantic walks in the darkness.
Camp Pineland is located in a unique and beautiful place. (3) However, be reminded that the lake is out of bounds for everybody without a counsellor and anybody caught there alone will be sent straight back home. As usual, this summer you’ll have a chance to hike in the mountains. (4)
I would like to draw your attention to the fact that Camp Pineland is in the Sierra Nevada which means that black bears still live here. So I am personally going to teach the campers some safety rules. (5)
Camp Pineland’s administration has always had traditional camp values. (6)
We are proud to inform you that we understand how much fun it is for a camper to receive a box of cookies or sweets from home. (7) So be aware that I am personally going to collect all your parcels and make sure that only healthy snacks in safe quantities are given to you on special occasions.
Your days at camp will be busy and structured and I hope that as always this summer we’ll see a lot of personal growth.”
As soon as the Crunch finished, the campers started moving impatiently. It was time for the cookout and nobody wanted to wait any longer. And then I saw Dima. He was talking to some other boys, using gestures when he didn’t know the right word. His new friends seemed to understand him really well. Dima noticed me and gave me a big smile. He was obviously enjoying the camp more than I was.

7 June Camp Pineland
It’s been two days since I came to camp. And things are getting better. I’m totally amazed by the beautiful natural wonders of California.
I’ve swum in the lake and I’ve been fed a ton of American snacks. However, a lot of important things still haven’t been done. This morning all the campers were asked which clubs they wanted to join. Everybody in our cabin knew the answer, but I didn’t. So I was advised to visit a couple of clubs and see what they are like. Today all the international campers are invited to the Geography Club. We have been asked to give a talk about our countries. I don’t know what topic to choose. Our country is so big that I’ll need a whole evening to cover everything. I wanted Dima to help me get ready for our presentation, but he’s got no time. He has already joined the Climbers Club, so right now he is being taught how to climb a tree. Do you think that’s an interesting activity? I don’t.

Read the story for detail. As you read, try to be the first to guess what country is being described. Then try to guess what names of places are missing and fill in the gaps.
Hi, everyone. I’m from...
My country is huge. You just have to think of its territory, the size of its great lakes, the volume of its world-famous ... Falls, the height of its mountains or even just the size of the whales that live there.
It’s very rich. And I’m talking about both the natural resources and the people. Think of the oil, gas, timber, gold, nickel, aluminum and lead — we’ve got them all, and in huge quantities. Besides, we produce 15% of the world’s diamonds. So our citizens have a very high standard of living.
It’s full of contrasts, with one of the largest territories in the world and a very small population, polar bears and blooming gardens, igloos and skyscrapers.
It’s got something for everyone. Try to live in the rhythm of the crazy heartbeat of cities like T... and M..., which offer the world’s best quality of life. If that’s too fast for you, go for a quiet history tour of St John’s in Newfoundland. Are you a sports type? Then choose between hiking, skiing or snowboarding in the mountains of our national parks.
We are multicultural. Since our country welcomes immigration, more and more people come to live here every year. You can eat in a Russian restaurant in our capital or get a hot Sicilian pizza in the snow-covered Yukon. And you will feel as if you are in Russia or in Italy. Oh, and I forgot to tell you; in our country, you can speak either English or French. Both languages are official.
Would you like to know why? Then let me tell you about some of the facts from our history.
In spite of the fact that the climate is so cold, the aboriginal people, or First Nations, had lived there for thousands of years before the Europeans came. A lot of
Unit 3 Lessons 3, 4 97
the names of our cities and lakes came from their language. The name of our country ... comes from the Iroquoian word kanata which means villages. The name of one of our Great Lakes, Ontario, means “beautiful lake” in the language of the Iroquoian. Two other Great Lakes were called ... and ... after the tribes that used to live in that area. A similar story can be told about our capital which was called ... after the tribe of Odaawaa.
In 1603 the French explorer Samuel de Champlain arrived and started the colonisation of the country. As the colonists were helped by the Indians, they managed to survive. Their territory was called New France and they established some of our major cities: ... and ....
The English were generally uninterested in this country. They were more attracted to the warmer lands in the south, which later became the first thirteen colonies of the USA. But in 1756 the colonies had to enter the Seven Years’ War which started in the Old World. As a result New France fell, and the British General Wolf established British rule there. Although my country became a British colony, the first wave of British immigration didn’t come until the American Revolution. After the Thirteen Colonies declared their independence from Britain, about 50,000 people who stayed loyal to the British crown (we call them Loyalists) moved here. Later the British started a very active exploration of the new land. In 1787 they founded ... (from the Iroquois word tkaronto, meaning “place where trees stand in the water”).
98 Unit 3 Lessons 3, 4
Oh, I completely forgot to tell you about our capital city, ... . It was chosen by the English Queen Victoria on December 31, 1857. At that time it was neither big nor important. The choice surprised the people so much that they made a lot of jokes about it. One joke has it that when the Queen was asked to make her choice, she simply stuck a pin on a map halfway between the most important French and English cities ... and ... and announced the place for our capital. Thus the capital became a good compromise between the French and English population. Unfortunately, I must also tell you that this English-French problem has still not been solved since a lot of people in the French province ... still want to gain independence from the rest of the country. In ... they made French the only official language. I think it’s because our country is still a British dominion. The ties between my country and Great Britain are not only historical. Look at our money or our stamps and you will be reminded of Great Britain. We even have a queen. You’ll probably be surprised if I tell you that her name is Queen Elizabeth II. Yes, the English Queen, not another one. Thus, our country is both a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy. Our form of government and its legislative system came from Great Britain too.
In spite of all our disagreements, there are more things that unite us in this country, and this idea is symbolised in our flag. A red maple leaf between two red stripes symbolizes the unity of all our citizens regardless of their race, religion or beliefs.

Unit 3 Lessons 5, 6, 7 105
I come from Toronto, the home of the Toronto Maple Leafs, our famous hockey club. The Toronto Maple Leafs is one of the Original Six professional teams of the National Hockey League, and their old arena was called Maple Leaf Gardens. It was this hockey temple that brought our Leafs eleven Stanley Cups. Unfortunately, the last game was played there in 1999 and then it was closed. My father was there, but he doesn't like to talk about it as the Leafs lost that game. I still see tears in his eyes when he remembers the emotional closing ceremony when our national song "The Maple Leaf Forever" was performed.
This brings us to another association with the maple leaf. "The Maple Leaf Forever" is a song, which, I think, should be our national anthem. It was in 1867, the year of Canada's Confederation, that the song was written by a school teacher from Toronto. His name was Alexander Muir. A song was needed to unite the nation, so a patriotic poetry contest was held. Although "The Maple Leaf Forever" got only the second place, it became very popular with English Canada and for many years, it was used as an unofficial national anthem.
Alexander Muir became famous as well. He always said that it was a big maple tree next to his house that gave him the idea. It was not until 1980 that another song,
"O Canada", was proclaimed the national anthem of the country.
Give the Russian equivalents for the following sentences.
1. It is in Canada that 85% of the world’s maple syrup is produced.
2. It was this hockey temple that brought our Leafs eleven Stanley Cups.
3. It was in 1867, the year of Canada’s Confederation, that the song was written by a school teacher from Toronto.

The Maple Leaf Forever
1. In Days of yore, from Britain's shore,
Wolfe, the dauntless hero came.
And planted firm Britannia's flag.
On Canada's fair domain.
Here may it wave, our boast, our pride.
And joined in love together.
The thistle, shamrock, rose entwine,
The Maple Leaf foreverl Chorus:
The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear.
The Maple Leaf forever!
God save our King (Queen), and Heaven bless, The Maple Leaf forever!
2. At Queenston Heights and Lundy's Lane,
Our brave fathers, side by side.
For freedom, homes, and loved ones dear.
Firmly stood and nobly died;
And those dear rights which they maintained.
We swear to yield them never!
Our watchword evermore shall be.
The Maple Leaf forever!
3. Our fair Dominion now extends From Cape Race to Nootka Sound;
May peace forever be our lot.
And plenteous store abound:
And may those ties of love be ours Which discord cannot sever.
And flourish green o'er freedom's home The Maple Leaf forever!
4. On merry England's far-famed land.
May kind Heaven sweetly smile;
God bless Old Scotland evermore.
And Ireland's Emer'Id Isle!
Then swell the song, both loud and long.
Till rocks and forest quiver,
God save our King (Queen), and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf forever!

For your information___________________________________________________
The term "political correctness" or PC is not new to Western and particularly American society. To be politically correct means to behave and speak in such way that you don't offend anyone. For example, as a man you wouldn't tell a dirty joke about women in front of a woman or you wouldn't make fun of a particular ethnic group to a person who was part of that ethnicity. In the past we called this politeness but nowadays it's called "political correctness". The idea to show respect to everybody is good, but as it so often happens, people soon started to overdo it. Many American men never open a door for a woman, or offer to pay for her in a restaurant anymore because they don't want to offend her. You may ask: How can opening a door offend anybody? Some women think that if a man opens a door for a woman, he demonstrates to her that he thinks she is weak and can't take care of herself.
Political correctness has changed the language too. Older people are not called "old" anymore because it may offend them, so they are officially called "senior citizens". But a lot of people think political correctness is nonsense. In fact, the term is sometimes used ironically, especially when somebody uses awkward language instead of more traditional words to describe someone.
10 This is a list of politically correct expressions which are generally used in modern English. Try to match these expressions with their more traditional equivalents.
Model: an old person — a senior citizen
1. a peacekeeper a) a soldier on a mission abroad
2. a rainforest b) a postman
3. an African American c) an invalid
4. a law enforcement officer d) a slow learner
5. a differently abled person e) a mad person
6. a Native American (US) 0 a Negro
7. a differently sized person g) a jungle
8. a mentally challenged person h) a fat person
9. an intellectually challenged person i) an Indian
10. a letter carrier j) an immigrant
11. a newcomer k) a policeman / a policewoman

Read the dialogue and check your answers to the questions in Ex. 1.
Daniel: Hi, everybody. My name is Daniel. I’m going to represent a country, an island and a continent all at the same time. You are very welcome to ask questions as I speak, because 1 only want to tell you about things you really want to c know, not bore you to death. Let me start with our flag. In my
opinion, it gives you all the basic information about my country.
A boy: I see that the British flag is on it, so does it mean that Australia used to be a British colony?
Daniel: It certainly does. Australia was discovered by the British explorer James Cook in 1770. By the way, Australia is still a monarchy and our head of state is the British monarch.
A girl: I have always been quite fascinated by the strange snowflakes on your flag. What exactly do they mean?
Daniel: That’s a good question. Actually, they aren’t snowflakes — they are stars. They form the Southern Cross which emphasizes the fact that Australia is situated in the Southern hemisphere.
The largest star, which has seven points, represents all Australian states and territories.
Unit 3 Lessons 8, 9 115
А boy: So does it mean that it is freezing
cold in Australia now when we’ve got summer in the Northern hemisphere? ^ -
Daniel: Not exactly. The climate in Australia is rather mild, so it’s never
very cold, but yes, it is winter in Australia between June and August.
A boy: But then mustn’t you be at school now? We’ve got school in winter.
Don’t you?
Daniel: You are absolutely right. I did stay at home in June, July and August until I left school last year. Summer holidays in Australia start in December and our school year starts in February, so Australian school children don’t have a lot of opportunities to travel in your summer months.
A boy: In the USA they say that about 22 million Americans are related to the first 102 Pilgrims who arrived on the Mayflower. Who are the Australians related to?
Daniel: It’s very interesting. A lot of Australians are related to convicts. At the
time when Australia was discovered, crime was a big problem in Britain, so prisons were packed with people. The solution they found was to send prisoners to the far colonies. On 26 January 1788 the First Fleet of 11 ships arrived in Sydney Harbour with 1,500 people, half of them convicts. Nowadays this day is celebrated as Australia’s National Day.
For me that shows that Australians are proud of their background, not ashamed of it. By 1868 160,000 men and women had come to Australia as convicts. There were free settlers too, but most of them had been so poor and unhappy in their own countries that they had nothing to lose there. So we do have a very tough background.
116 Unit 3 Lessons 8, 9
А boy:
So maybe it is this rebellious and tough background that makes Australians so good at sports. Every Olympic Games the whole world admires Australian athletes.
Daniel: If you ask me, when people say that Australians like sports, it is a huge understatement.
A lot of Australians are practically born in the water as most of the country is a huge beach. As soon as they learn to walk, they glue themselves to surfboards or jump into kayaks and boats and spend hours or even days in the water. When they get older, they need more of a challenge. So they dive into the Great Barrier Reef and swim together with crocodiles, huge sharks and giant sea snakes. Some Australians prefer to risk their life in the rainforests which, by the way, are not populated just by koalas. In the Australian woods you can come across by far the most dangerous snakes and spiders in the world.
Whatever you can think of: parachute jumping, cycling on mountain bikes, walking in the outback — Australians do have their own extreme way of doing it all.
Right... are you still with me? Let’s go on then.
A boy: I have heard that Australians have their own meaning for the word “outback”. Can you tell us what it is?
Daniel: The Australian Outback or the Australian Bush is a vast territory beyond the urban areas. The heart of the Australian Outback is called the Red Centre which takes its name from the red soil of the desert. It is in the Red Centre that you can find Uluru, our most famous rock monolith. Uluru, which used to be better known as Ayers Rock, is an iconic image of the Australian Outback located in the Northern Territory in the very heart of the continent.
A girl: Oh, that reminds me of the book “The Thorn Birds”.
I read it a couple of years ago. It’s written by Colleen McCullough if I’m not mistaken. I was particularly impressed by the description of the bushfire which brought so much death and destruction. Hopefully these fires are something of the past.
Daniel: Unfortunately, this isn’t true. In fact, we do have to deal with bushfires nearly every summer when temperatures rise and rain is rare. I myself live in Sydney, so bushfires don’t usually affect me. I didn’t use to give them much thought. But last year I spent my holidays in a small town in the Yarra Valley. Soon
Unit 3 Lessons 8, 9 117
after I returned home, news came that this town had been completely destroyed by a bushfire. About ten people were killed. I was horrified as I remembered the nice owner of our hotel and how she had looked after us in her house. Then I thought about the friendly family who lived next to the hotel. All of them could be dead. So I started listening to the news really carefully.
I was relieved when I heard that the people I knew were alive. I suppose it shows that when something happens in a place you know, you take other people’s problems much closer to heart.
A boy: Look, you still haven’t told us anything about your city, Sydney. I’ve heard it’s awesome. I suppose it is also the capital of Australia, right?
Daniel: It is indeed Australia’s oldest and largest city. Nearly a quarter of all Australians live there. However it is not the capital. The capital of Australia is Canberra.
A girl: So does life in Sydney resemble life in the Yarra Valley?
Daniel: Not at all. Sydney, of course, is a very Australian city with its amazing beaches and bright sun, but it offers a lot more than that. In my city you can always leave a sandy beach and dive into the world of museums, theatres, festivals and galleries, or choose among the thousands of fantastic restaurants and bars which are open round the clock. Sydney is world famous for its architecture. I’m sure you’ve seen pictures of our impressive Sydney Harbour. The Sydney Opera House, which is situated there, is to me by far the most unusual opera house in the world. However, you shouldn’t judge Sydney just by its appearance. Sydney’s people are the proud descendants of British convicts who built this beautiful city and started new lives here, not as convicts but as Australians.
Well, I think that covers everything. Thank you for listening. Have you got any more questions?
11 8 Unit 3 Lessons 8, 9
4 j a) Read the grammar explanation.
Эмфатические конструкции (продолжение)
Эмфатические конструкции используются и в том случае, когда нужно подчеркнуть значимость действия, выраженного основным глаголом. В таких случаях в the Present Simple перед основным глаголом употребляется форма do или does, а в the Past Simple — did; основной глагол ставится в форме инфинитива без частицы to. В этом случае на do, does и did падает ударение. В соответствующих русских предложениях выделение действия передается с помощью слов же, ведь, на самом деле, а также интонации:
Why didn’t you phone me yesterday? — Почему Вы не позвонили мне вчера?
But I did phone you. You were not in.— Ho я же звонил, но Вас не было на месте.
It’s а pity you don’t know Gregory.— Жаль, что вы не знаете Грегори.
But I do know him.— Но я ведь знаю его.
Выделение действия, выраженного основным глаголом, стоящим в форме времен, которые имеют в своем составе вспомогательный глагол, возможно с помощью интонации. Ударение падает на вспомогательный глагол:
Why haven’t you read this text? — Почему Вы не прочитали этот текст?
But I have read it.— Но я же читал его.
Ь) Write the Russian equivalents for the following sentences.
1. You are absolutely right. I did stay at home in June, July and August.

to wipe smth out — стирать, уничтожать что-либо to integrate — интегрировать legal / illegal — законный / незаконный shameful — постыдный equal — равный a touchy subject — больной вопрос
Counsellor:
The game is called “My country has done it”. Each player gets 5 stones. Every person must say something that his/her country has done which makes him/her proud. However, it should be something that they think other countries haven’t done. So if another player can say, “My country has done it as well, he/she can keep the stone. But if another player’s country hasn’t done it, he/she must put one of the stones into the centre. When a player has got no more stones, he/she is out of the game. The player who still has the stones when everybody else doesn’t is the winner.

5 Read the conversation and say what Mary, David, Belle and Lisa are proud of. Who is ashamed of some of the events in his / her country? What are they ashamed of?
Counsellor: Let’s start with you, Lisa.
Lisa: Russia has got a lot of achievements which are
recognized all over the world, but I think the most wonderful thing we have done was to build the first spaceship and to send a man to space.
Belle: You were the first, of course, but the USA has done it too. So I’m keeping my stone.
David: My country hasn’t done it yet. But I don’t think we need so many spaceships anyway.
It is much wiser to spend money on health and education. Here is my stone.
Mary: We haven’t done it either. Here is my stone.
Daniel: Take mine too. Australia hasn’t built a
spaceship yet either. And I think we should.
You’ll be surprised, but the Russian scientist ‘ ~
Sergey Korolyov is my role model. He had a
dream to fly to the space and he fulfilled it, although
nobody believed it was possible. His story is fascinating.
Belle: OK. My turn. A citizen of my country first landed on the moon.
Lisa: Here is my stone. We haven’t done it yet.
David: Nobody else has done it, right? So each of us should put in a stone.
Now it’s my turn. Although my country is an island, we, together with France, have made a tunnel connecting Britain to the continent. The Channel Tunnel which was opened in 1994 is the second-longest tunnel in the world. Amazing, isn’t it?
Lisa: I couldn’t agree more. This is a real wonder. We haven’t got a tunnel like that. Here is my stone.
Belle: We haven’t done anything like that either, and I agree it was an awesome project.
Mary: Neither has Canada, but not everybody needs a tunnel like that. Daniel: That’s exactly what I think. I don’t think we need a tunnel like this. Here’s my stone.

Counsellor:
Daniel:
David:
Mary: All the achievements that have been mentioned are great. I’d like to speak about something which is less impressive, but not less important. I think the greatness of a country is also in how it treats the old, the poor and the weak. I’m proud that my country didn’t only free its slaves but also gave them equal rights. Moreover, it helped the slaves from the USA in times when slavery there was still legal. To me this shows that Canada is a real democracy which has true respect for everybody’s rights and freedoms.
The USA also freed its slaves, but it didn’t happen until after the Civil War. I come from South Carolina, one of the Southern states. My great-grandfather used to have slaves. He was not a very good master and his slaves often tried to run away to Canada. I think this is a very shameful part of our family history. Here is my stone.
We didn’t have many slaves from Africa in Russia, but a lot of Russian people themselves used to be slaves until 1861. Although slavery was abolished in Russia, in my opinion, it happened too late. Here is my stone.
1 believe there wasn’t any real slavery in modern England. However, I’m sure there’s also some law which makes slavery illegal. So I think 1 can keep my stone.
May 1 interrupt here? I’m not sure I agree with you.
What about the British colonies? Those colonies had slavery and they were part of Great Britain. I think you need to give us your stone, David. Now what about you,
Daniel? There weren’t any real slaves in Australia, were there?
We didn’t have real slavery, it’s true.
But what we had was probably in some ways worse. Have you ever heard about the stolen generations?
Yeah, I’ve read something about aboriginal children who were brought up by church missionaries, but that was ages ago, right?
128 Unit 3 Lessons 10, 11
Daniel: The truth, that not everybody knows, is that a large number of aboriginal children were taken from their own parents until 1970. By that time about 100,000 aboriginal children had been either taken away by government officials, or simply stolen from their own families. When the children were removed from their homes, they were usually very young, so they didn’t remember their parents. They were told that that they had been orphans. Later those children were raised by foster families or church missionaries.
Mary: But how could the government explain these actions?
Daniel: The Australian government said that it was trying to help. The
European Australians had decided that the abuiigiiial peuple weie not fit to raise their own children. The government also said that this policy would help the aboriginal children to integrate into Western society. However, in reality the government just wanted to wipe out the aboriginal culture.
Lisa: And the easiest way to kill a culture is to interrupt the connection between generations.
Daniel: Exactly. Children of the stolen generations didn’t know their own
language and didn’t even remember the faces of their own mothers.
Belle: But what happened to these children when they grew up? Anyway when those children grew up, they all got a good education, good jobs and became useful members of society.
Daniel: I can’t agree with you here. What you are talking about is our
Western values. But we need to understand that our values are NOT universal. I’ll tell you one story that happened to me. Before we moved to Sydney, our family had lived in the outback.
One day I was playing in the garden when an old aboriginal woman came up to me. She smiled and started to sing. I jumped on my feet and ran away. “Mum, help!” I shouted, “There is a dark, scary woman in the garden!” Mum hurried to the garden while I stayed inside.
That night Mum cried a lot, but she refused to tell me why.
Only years later she told me that the woman had been her mother, my Granny.
Belle: That’s awful! But why didn’t she introduce you to each other?
Units Lessons 10, 11 129
Daniel: It was the first time they had ever met. When my mother was two, she got ill and Granny brought her to the hospital. Later Granny was told that her daughter had died, but she didn’t believe it. She started looking for her child and she didn’t give up even 30 years later. When they met on that day, they couldn’t even talk to each other properly because Mum didn’t speak a word of her mother tongue and Granny’s English was very poor. Soon after that, we left for Sydney. That’s the end of my story. Here is my stone.
Counsellor: Thanks, Daniel. It is obviously a touchy subject for you. (pause) Well, it looks like it’s time for dinner. Hurry up, everyone, or we’ll be late.

20 June Camp Pineland
I don’t know how my first two weeks at camp have flown by so quickly.
Now I am absolutely sure that to go to this camp was the best decision I have ever made.
Our days are packed with fun activities that are all different.
I can’t say that I’m the most popular girl in the camp but I’ve got to know quite a lot of people and Mary and I are becoming close. Cindy and Hailey are also all right when Belle is not around. Belle rules our cabin. When she laughs, the other girls laugh with her. And when she is unhappy with something, my cabinmates gather round her and ask her what’s wrong and try to make her feel better. At first
Unit 4 Lessons 1,2 135
I thought Belle was a show off and a pain in the neck, but now I really don’t think so.
You have to be a really amazing person for everybody to like you so much. And Belle is amazing. The only thing is: she doesn’t want to be friends with me. It’s probably because of David, whom she really likes, although Belle is not his girlfriend. Nobody is. When I casually chatted with David on our flight to California,
little did I know that I was enjoying the David, the famous heart-throb of Camp Pineland. When I realised who he was, I felt angry with myself, because I too had started to like him and though we might go out, I was mad to think so. David is too cool to go out with me. Anyway I didn’t need his attention, so I decided not to talk to him. He didn’t seem to care, and all was fine until we found ourselves in the same club.
The clubs and how to select them are a very important part of life in Camp Pineland. There was a real battle to get into the popular ones. We were given forms to fill in. In these forms we had to tick which clubs we wanted and then we were informed whether we got what we chose. Nature is by far the most interesting club. It is also the most difficult club to get into. At first I didn’t understand why all campers wrote down Nature Club as their first choice. Were all the campers interested in flowers and trees? I was lucky to have Mary nearby. “Don’t be silly! Choose Nature!” she whispered to me. “People wait forever to get into that club. You may get it because you are new.” So I ticked Nature and Newspaper. Newspaper was actually my first choice.
136 Unit 4 Lessons 1, 2
When I got my form back, I saw that I was given Drama, the least popular club, and Nature, probably to make up for Drama. I sighed with disappointment and my bunkmates asked me what I got. When I told them, Cindy got excited. “I got Newspaper and Native American Art,” she said. “So we can swap if you want.” I opened my mouth to agree, but Mary dragged me aside.
“What are you doing?” she asked. “The main thing about Nature Club is that its members go hiking. And it isn’t just a one-day picnic — it’s a cool four-day adventure in the Yosemite wilderness, one of the most beautiful national parks in the world. Nature Club includes a lot of activities: horse riding, swimming, Native American history and even newspaper. It is the highlight of the whole camping season. Don’t give it away! Besides, I got Nature Club too, so we can be in it together,” she said.
So I agreed to be a part of the Nature Club and went to the first club meeting. I was delighted to see my brother Dima there. There were also a few other people I knew: Daniel from Australia, Claudia from Italy and Lukas from Germany. The counsellor was about to start the meeting when the door opened again and David and Belle entered the room and greeted everybody with their famous million-dollar smiles.
The Infinitive (Инфинитив)
Инфинитив представляет собой неличную форму глагола, которая только называет действие, не указывая ни лица, ни числа, ни наклонения. Инфинитив соответствует в русском языке неопределенной форме глагола:
to play — играть, сыграть, to send — посылать, послать Формальным признаком инфинитива является частица to, которая не имеет самостоятельного значения:
Не likes to travel,— Он любит путешествовать.
Отрицательная форма инфинитива образуется с помощью частицы not, которая ставится перед ним:
“То be, or not to be: that is the question.” — “Быть или не быть — вот в чем вопрос”.
Look through Ex. 1 and the story and find the sentences which contain the infinitive.
Unit 4 Lessons 1, 2 137
функции инфинитива в предложении
В предложении инфинитив может выполнять следующие функции:
• подлежащего
То sleep in the open air is very useful.— Спать на открытом воздухе полезно.
• части составного именного сказуемого
His task was to help them.— Его задачей было помогать им.
• дополнения
Не promised to come in time.— Он обещал приехать вовремя.
• обстоятельства цели
She took а taxi to be on time.— Она взяла такси, чтобы не опоздать.
• обстоятельства следствия со словами too (слишком), enough (достаточно) Your tea is too hot to drink now.— Ваш чай слишком горячий, чтобы пить его сейчас.
I’ve known him long enough to trust him.— Я знаю его достаточно давно, чтобы доверять ему.
• определения
В этой функции инфинитив всегда стоит после определяемого существительного:
Гт looking for а book to read.— Я ищу книгу, которую можно почитать.
Перевод предложений, содержащих инфинитив, на русский язык
Инфинитив в функции подлежащего, части составного сказуемого, дополнения, обстоятельства цели, следствия в большинстве случаев передается в русском языке существительным или инфинитивом:
То read is the best way to learn about the world.— Чтение — лучший способ узнавать об окружающем мире.
Оиг plan is to go to Spain.— Наш план — поехать (поездка) в Испанию.
Не went to the shop to buy a present for his wife.— Он пошел в магазин, чтобы купить подарок для своей жены.
Однако инфинитив в функции определения чаще переводится определительным придаточным предложением с глаголом долженствования, а также прилагательным, причастием, существительным или личной формой глагола (в зависимости от контекста):
138 Unit 4 Lessons 1, 2
She’s got a small flat to sell.— У нее есть маленькая квартира, которую нужно продать.
Гт going to the party. Can you recommend a dress to wear? — Я иду на вечеринку. Ты можешь порекомендовать мне платье, которое можно надеть?
I’ve got а lot of work to do.— У меня много работы, которую надо сделать.
This stone is hard to find.— Этот камень трудно найти.
Ask Mr Help _____ ____________________
Вопрос: Как же правильно перевести предложение: То sing
is а very interesting hobby? Петь — это очень интересное хобби, или Пение — это очень интересное хобби?
Ответ: По сути верны оба перевода, но предпочтение надо отдать тому, которое лучше звучит по-русски: Пение — это очень интересное хобби.
Как видно из предыдущих примеров, перевод предложений, содержащих инфинитив, в большинстве случаев возможен с помощью неопределенной формы глагола, однако иногда требуется изменение структуры всего предложения. Например: You are foolish to believe her.— Ты глупец, если веришь ей.
Определите функцию инфинитива в этих предложениях.

Lesson 3
Lisa gets the letter
Инфинитивный оборот Сложное дополнение / Complex Object
Инфинитив в сочетании с существительным или местоимением в объектном падеже образует инфинитивный оборот — сложное дополнение.
Сложное дополнение состоит из существительного в именительном падеже или местоимения в объектном падеже, за которыми следует инфинитив:
His mother wants Peter to help her in the garden.— Мама хочет, чтобы Питер помог ей в саду. (Сложное дополнение состоит из существительного Peter и инфинитива to help.)
His mother wants him to help her in the garden.— Мама хочет, чтобы он
142 Unit 4 Lessons 1, 2 and 3
помог ей в саду. (Сложное дополнение состоит из местоимения him и инфинитива to help.)
На русский язык сложное дополнение переводится придаточными изъяснительными предложениями, которые вводятся союзами что, чтобы, как. При этом местоимение в объектном падеже переводится на русский язык местоимением в именительном падеже:
Jack didn’t want them to know the truth.— Джек не хотел, чтобы они узнали правду.
I would like him to translate this text by himself.— Я хотел бы, чтобы он перевел этот текст сам.
Сложное дополнение употребляется:
• после глаголов, выражающих желание:
to want — I want you to learn English.— Я хочу, чтобы ты изучал английский.
to expect — I expect her to come on time.— Я ожидаю (надеюсь), что она придет вовремя.
to like в сочетании с would — Не would like us to read this book.— Он хотел бы, чтобы мы прочитали эту книгу.
• после глаголов чувства и восприятия:
to hear — Mother heard her son get up.— Мама услышала, как ее сын встал с кровати.
to see — We all saw you leave.— Мы все видели, что ты уехала, to watch — Friends watched their train arrive at the station.— Друзья наблюдали, как их поезд прибывает на станцию, to feel — Ann felt something touch her leg.— Анна почувствовала, что что-то коснулось ее ноги.
Обратите внимание на то, что после этих глаголов инфинитив употребляется без частицы to.
Инфинитив также употребляется без частицы to:
• после глаголов to make (заставлять) и to let (позволять);
She makes her son clean his room every day.— Она заставляет сына убирать комнату каждый день.
Don’t let your daughter come home late.— He позволяйте Вашей дочери приходить домой поздно.
Однако если глагол таке стоит в страдательном залоге, то инфинитив употребляется с частицей to:
Helen was crying because she was made to come back.— Хелен плакала, потому что ее заставили вернуться.

21 June Camp Pineland
I got the letter and I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw “D” at the end. Could it really be from David?
I wanted it to be from him so much! I decided to meet him.
There was only one problem. Our counsellor Jenny doesn’t let anybody go out of the cabin after lights out (после отбоя). What I was going to do was very wrong ... and Jenny was so sweet — she didn’t expect me to let her down and deceive her in this way. If I got caught outside the cabin at night, she’d be in deep trouble with the Crunch. On the other hand, David expected me to come. I couldn’t let him down, could I?
That night I put on my best outfit and went to bed early. Everybody thought I was asleep, but I wasn’t. I watched all my bunkmates go to their beds, I heard them talk in sleepy voices and finally everything got quiet. I still had time, so I decided to wait a bit more just to make sure everybody was really asleep. Then I saw Belle get out of her bed. She was fully dressed as well!
144 Unit 4 Lesson 3
Where was she going? Belle looked round and quietly walked out of the cabin door. I thought it was time for me to go too, so 1 followed her after a few minutes. I didn’t want Belle to see me, so 1 watched her leave until she was out of sight. Then I ran straight to the lake. I sat under a huge tree and waited for David. Suddenly I heard somebody. My heart fell when I saw Daniel, the guy from Australia. A lot of girls like him, but I think he is too tough. Dima told me that Daniel once made him swim across the lake, and my brother is not a very good swimmer. At first I didn’t want him to see me, so I tried to hide myself behind the tree, but Daniel noticed me right away and came up to me. “Hi,” he said. To be honest, he looked really surprised. He probably didn’t expect me to come when he wrote his stupid letter. “What are you doing here after lights out? Your counsellor wouldn’t like you to be here, you know?” he went on. “Besides, it might be dangerous because this area is full of wild animals. I’ll walk you back to your cabin.” Before I had the time to think of a good answer, Daniel took my hand and made me follow him. We hadn’t walked a few steps when I saw David. He was walking in our direction, but then he stopped half-way and turned around. He was obviously looking for Belle, and I certainly wasn’t going to help him. I was heartbroken and needed some time alone. A few minutes later we bumped into Charlie who also looked a bit nervous. The lake shore was a surprisingly busy place after dark.

Yosemite is a place of wilderness. We do our best to protect it. A small fee is charged to enter the park. Be sure to make a reservation for the campgrounds if you want to spend the night in the park.
Pets, cars and bicycles are not allowed on wilderness trails.
All visitors are required to respect the rules and regulations in order to enjoy the wilderness safely,
a) Planning your hike:
• Evaluate your abilities honestly. Make plans that will suit the weakest members of your group.
• Be sure to carry a map and compass with you at all times.
• Plan a lot of time for rest, food preparation and storage, and campsite selection.
• Always check weather conditions and be ready for sudden changes. You should be prepared for extreme cold, sudden rain, strong wind, morning or evening fog and high temperatures regardless of the season.
• Think carefully about what equipment you are going to need. Always carry extra food and water.
b) In the park it is illegal:
• to feed wild animals
• to hunt animals
• to collect plants or cones
• to camp outside of camping areas
• to collect reptiles or insects, particularly butterflies
• to pick up or use wood from the surrounding area
• to make any permanent changes to campsites
Because of fire danger, campfires are permitted ONLY from 5.00 p.m. to 10.00 p.m.
Quiet hours are between 10.00 p.m. and 8.00 a.m.
Because of bears, proper food storage is necessary 24 hours a day.
c)
Drowning is believed to be the number 1; cause of death in national parks. Be especially careful near rivers and streams. The riversj may seem safe, but if you fall in, it will soc prove to be nearly impossible to get out. The= water is very cold and the current is strong. I It can quickly drain all your strength even if you are a good swimmer.
152 Unit 4 Lessons 4, 5
d) ...
"The weather in California is supposed to be good all the time". Please beware that this misconception can cost you your life. Afternoon thunderstorms are not rare, so don't get caught in one by accident. As soon as you see dark clouds or hear distant thunder, find shelter immediately. Do not try to hide under a tree — get inside a building. If you are out in the wilderness, find a cave. It is as dangerous to stay in open meadows as it is to stay in the forest. You should also stay away from any body of water and all open metal construction which can attract lightning from a distance.
e) ...
Ticks are common in the forests of the Sierra Nevada. You should wear clothing that covers your arms and legs and check yourself carefully. Tick bites can be dangerous, as some of them are known to carry Lyme disease. Although ticks of this region of the US are unlikely to be infected, you should still tell a doctor immediately if you find a tick on your body.
f) ...
Watch where you step and what you touch. In the Sierra Nevada, you are likely to come across a rattlesnake, a protected species in Yosemite. Although thought to be aggressive, these snakes are unlikely to attack if you don't provoke them. You must get immediate help if you get bitten. If you are near a pay phone, call 911.
g) .....
Mountain lions, sometimes called cougars, live in this area. You are unlikely to see one, but if you do, be on your guard. Mountain lions have been reported to attack people, especially children. Don't hike alone. Be
aware of what is around you at all times. If you come into contact with a mountain lion, you need to show it that you are not prey or can be dangerous. First, try to give it a way to escape. If it stays, don't try to run away but back away slowly. A mountain lion is likely to follow you if you run. If you are with other people, stay together to look bigger and don't try to hide. If the mountain lion shows signs of aggression, shout and throw stones and sticks at it. If it attacks, fight back!
h) ...
Yosemite National Park is home to a large black bear population. Bears are naturally afraid of people, but unfortunately, their natural instincts have been changed by easy access to human food in the park. In the past tourists used to leave their rubbish all over the area and the bears proved to be very quick learners. They liked human food so much that they lost their natural fear of us and started behaving aggressively. In order to find our food, bears have been known to break into cars, trailers, tents, and other camping equipment.
Each year black bears have to be killed in Yosemite National Park as a result of human mistakes. You can save a bear's life if you follow some simple rules. Get special metal boxes to store your food. Don't leave any food in the car. Even if your food is in unopened boxes, cans or packages, a bear is likely to smell it. Dispose of your food into the special bins. Keep ail the doors and windows of your cabins closed. Don't let a bear approach your food. If you are near a bear, shout and make large gestures with your arms. If a bear does happen to get your food, don't try to take it back.

Wawona Campgrounds
It finally happened! All of us Nature Club members have gone to hike in Yosemite National Park, one of the most beautiful national parks in the world. I’m writing this from the Wawona campgrounds where we have come to stay after a long day, one of the most wonderful days of my life. Today we visited just the heart of the park, Yosemite Valley, and some of the sights around it. I’m going to write about everything I have seen here for my friends to read when I get back home.
a) Yosemite Valley is a magical place. Once a visitor enters, he finds himself in a dreamlike world.

The sun is warm, and the air is so fresh and crisp that it seems to be sparkling.
The bright blue sky is filled with the colours and songs of 247 species of birds. When you raise your face to the clouds, ancient mountains greet you.
When you look straight ahead, you see rainbows in the many waterfalls of Yosemite. When you look down, you find yourself on a beautiful carpet of a thousand wildflowers. The unearthly beauty of this place made our group cry with excitement. Later our ranger told us that the first Europeans who saw this valley are said to have reacted in exactly the same way. It happened in
1851 when the Mariposa Battalion, which had been following an Indian tribe, got over the mountains and entered the valley.
People from the battalion never forgot what they saw and soon stories of Yosemite Valley’s beauty spread all over the country. People started to come especially to visit this place. A lot of them liked the place so much that they decided to stay. Soon houses were built and the wild meadows became home to cattle and orchards.

b) In 1868 a young Scottish immigrant, John Muir, arrived in San Francisco and asked for the way to “anywhere that’s wild”. People told him about the magical valley in the mountains of the Sierra Nevada and so he went there. He is believed to have shouted with joy when he first saw Yosemite, and this place became the love of his life. During the next several years, he took any job that would take him there. He went everywhere and noticed everything. His observations were recorded in his diaries. Later these diaries were published and made the valley

even more popular. Muir was happy for people to come, but he also got worried about whether the next generations would be able to see this unique place. A lot of land seemed to have been taken by gold prospectors and land speculators. More and more land was occupied by cattle. Muir wanted the Yosemite he loved to be preserved in its original state. He wrote about the problem and managed to attract public attention to it. A few years later the federal government established Yosemite National Park to protect the unique nature of this place. So it is thanks to Muir’s work that today we are able to see this magical wilderness. Our guide called Muir one of the founders of the American conservation movement. He explained to us that conservationists work to protect nature which includes animals, plants and natural resources for future generations. A lot of famous people from Christopher Columbus and Theodore Roosevelt to Bill Clinton and Leonardo Di Caprio have been conservationists.

c) We entered the park through the Arch Rock Entrance and soon found ourselves in Yosemite Valley. This is where tourists can get everything they need: shops, restaurants, cabins, visitor centres and picnic facilities.
Our first stop was Glacier Point, From there we had a fantastic view of the whole of Yosemite National Park. The scene was dominated by Half Dome, which is said to be the most recognized natural wonder of Yosemite. It is a huge granite mountain which looks like half of it has been cut away. Everybody started making jokes about where the other half had gone, however our guide told us that Half Dome was believed to have never been a complete dome. Then we noticed some rocks overhanging from the cliff next to us. It was prohibited to step

Unit 4 Lessons 6, 7 8 163
on them. The guide told us that a lot of people have been known to have posed on them. It used to be a kind of a tradition. As it is over 1,000 metres above the valley { floor, I thought this tradition was crazy. So I was glad for modern tourists to have been warned of the danger.
d) Then we hurried to see the famous Yosemite Falls. We learned from our guide that these falls are the fifth tallest in the world, so I expected to see something really impressive.
The waterfalls were beautiful indeed, but they didn’t seem so tall to me. I was much more impressed by Bridal Veil Falls. These falls are famous for their mist which seems to be floating in the air. It is a fantastic sight, especially in the early afternoon when the falls are lit by direct sunlight.
e) After the beauty of Bridal Veil Falls, 1 thought nothing could surprise me more, however, I was wrong. The guide kept the park’s most amazing secret until the end when we finally entered Mariposa Grove
and saw THEM. I have to use capital letters here because I don’t know how to describe what we saw. Think of the largest living things on the planet which are also the oldest and the rarest. Can you guess what they are? I’m talking about the Giant Sequoias, a type of redwood tree. These huge trees grow only on the west coast of the US and in one valley in China. They are as high as a 35-storey building and grow as straight as a flagpole. That’s why they are sometimes called “God’s flagpoles”. A mature tree can weigh more than 3,000,000 kilograms. A single branch of a Giant Sequoia is larger than most trees.
164 Unit 4 Lessons6, 7, 8
These trees are ancient. Some of them were believed to have been more than 4,000 years old when they were cut down. It was exciting to think that the trees that we saw were already big when Christ was born and that their seeds already existed when the Egyptian Pharaohs ruled the Nile Valley. Everybody in our group wanted to know why so few trees are left. Our guide told us that there used to be more. In fact, modern civilization have only known about Giant Sequoias for 200 years, but in that short time, people discovered the value of this wood and quickly cut down 99 per cent of them. Its wood is known to have been valued for its beauty, light weight, resistance to fire and decay. So my grandmother’s redwood antique armchair is probably made of sequoia. I’ll have to ask her when I get back.
Although sequoias seem magnificent and powerful, these trees are very fussy when it comes to climate. They need a lot of moisture and an even temperature. It mustn’t be too hot or too cold for sequoias to survive. The guide said that sequoias produce millions of seeds, however very few seeds become trees. A seed can be eaten by a squirrel or it can even get burnt by a forest fire, but most often a cone with good seeds is taken home by tourists. Our guide was likely to have been watching us the whole time because his words made a few people blush. Obviously, these people were embarrassed to have taken some cones. I later watched them put the cones back on the forest floor.
They would have made great souvenirs, but everybody wanted a new tree to be given a chance. Wasn’t that much more important?
We took a lot of pictures of the Giant Sequoias and walked through the California Tunnel Tree. This tree had been cut to allow horses and carriages to ride through in the old days. Nobody wanted to leave, but it was time to go to our campground. Our first day in Yosemite was coming to an end.

3 July Yosemite National Park 7 a.m.
Today we are rafting on the Merced River.
Rafting may be a very exciting activity, but you must learn a bit about the sport before you go. That’s why all of us have had to practise before the trip, and I’ve learnt just enough to be terribly unsure of myself. I may get hit in the face by a large wave. And what do I do if I fall out of the raft in the rapids? The water is very cold, even in summer, so I may freeze to death. I am watching my friends and my brother right now. Dima is really excited. He must be looking forward to it. But my friend Mary is very pale. She may be thinking about all of the terrible things that could happen, but she will never admit it. Belle is not in a good mood at all. Can she have changed her mind about the rafting trip? David looks quiet and upset. He can’t be afraid. It must be something else that’s worrying him. Only Daniel looks like he usually does — enthusiastic. After all, Australians like the water, so he may be good at rafting even if it’s his first time.
12 p.m.
The first part of the day is over. We are now on the bank of the Merced River just where we started — behind the Ned’s Gulch rapid. The bus took us back here for lunch. The morning session wasn’t bad at all. This part of the river is considered easier than both the upstream and downstream stretches, so we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and still experience some
Unit 4 Lessons 9, 10, 11 175
Class II rapids. None of us fell out of the raft, so the boys must be a bit disappointed. Now they want the instructor to take us further down to a more difficult stretch of the river, but the instructor refuses. He says that none of us is ready for a lot of the Class IV rapids and even one Class V rapid, so he says there is nothing further to discuss. But suddenly we hear loud cries from the river. A man is running along the bank and shouting...
14 p.m.
In minutes, the river quickly became a scene of disaster. An overturned canoe passed us. The canoe was followed by an empty raft which had been attached to it by the rope. Three people were hanging on to the canoe, but they looked unconscious. And that wasn’t all.
In about ten metres from the canoe somebody in a yellow life jacket was drifting. The person was trying to move, but the river current was too strong.
Before anybody could say anything, Daniel took the rope, jumped into a tiny kayak and paddled to the canoe. Our instructor cried with horror and followed Daniel to the edge of the river. He was shouting, “It’s useless! Your kayak is too light! You won’t be able to pull them out! Your kayak will turn over!
You’ve got no life-jacket!” But Daniel wasn’t listening. He made it to the raft and then tied it to his kayak. It was the only right decision in that situation. Daniel couldn’t pull out three people and a heavy canoe which was filled with water. But he could pull out a light empty raft and that was just what he did.
Daniel paddled back to the bank, and tied the rope round a tree. Thus the raft and the canoe were secured.
The instructor was already there to help Daniel and started to pull the raft and canoe towards the bank. Other people from our group also rushed to help him. The three men saved by Daniel were half-conscious when he brought them to the bank, and we had to unclasp their frozen hands and take off their life-jackets. And then came more cries of horror.

While we were watching Daniel and the instructor help the three men, nobody noticed that David had jumped into the river seconds after him. We only noticed him when he had already reached the person in yellow life-jacket and was pushing him or her towards the bank. When this person got to the bank, it turned out that it was a young woman called Lily. Lily was suffering from shock, but on the whole, she was fine. She hadn’t got frozen in the river. A man in wet clothes and a life-jacket ran to Lily. It was her friend Jack who had raised the alarm. Three canoers were tired but recovering. Meanwhile all our group gathered round Daniel and congratulated him for his bravery. But where was David? They can’t have forgotten about him. But he wasn’t there. I went looking for him and found him near the river. It looked like he had been sitting there the whole time. He smiled when he saw me and it made me feel terribly awkward. “You have done a very brave thing, David,” I said finally. “You must be proud of yourself.” “I don’t know. It was scary, Lisa,” David answered with a sigh. “I didn’t even know if that woman was alive until I got her back to the bank.” Everything I could think of at that moment seemed stupid, so I just said, “Okay, well, you must be tired. I guess I should go.” “Sure, I’ll see you around,” he answered and walked away.

July 3 Yosemite National Park
After an exciting day I must have fallen asleep in my tent. When I woke up, I realized that it was still light outside and most of the campers had gathered around the campfire. I heard people laughing. “They must be having a great time there,” I thought to myself and so decided to join them. There was Dima and Daniel, Mary and Luke and it didn’t surprise me when I saw that the life and soul of the party were David and Belle. David seemed to have been telling a joke because Belle laughed loudly. When I sat down by the fire. Belle picked up the guitar and started singing.
It was, of course, a love song: the words were simple and a bit naive, but her beautiful voice made up for it. She stared at David as she sang and when she finished, he was the first to applaud. I was about to leave and had already stood up when David took the guitar from Belle. I heard him say that he would like to sing a song which he had written himself.
I have remembered every word of it. Here it is:
We have already gone out.
I held your hand and we kissed.
I've stolen you from the crowd.
But... it happened just in my dreams.
It happened just in my dreams.
Unit 5 Lessons 1,2 185
Refrain: Just in my dreams you trust me again,
Just in my dreams I don't feel the pain.
Just in my dreams we aren't so apart Just in my dreams you let me into your heart.
You let me into your heart.
I thought I could be your friend.
I always tried to be near.
But there's no sense to pretend and now I want you to hear.
Refrain
We'll never have a first dance.
There'll be no letters, no dates.
Unless you give me a chance.
Unless I finally say...
That all I can think of is you and your eyes.
I've never felt that before, it even makes me surprised.
That all I can wish for is two simple things.
Please just look at me and let me into your dreams.
Oh, let me into your dreams.
As he was singing I was struck by the sadness of the song. Could David be suffering? I was too scared to look at him and find him staring at Belle. I turned my head back only when David had finished his song. But he was looking at me! Nobody moved or said anything, then suddenly Belle started to applaud. I felt sick and thought that I should have left before the whole serenade business.
No, I shouldn’t have come at all. I got up and started walking towards my tent when I heard Daniel’s voice. “Lovely evening, isn’t it, Lisa? Why don’t we go for a walk?” I was happy to be as far away from the campfire as possible, so 1 just nodded. After walking a little, we sat on a fallen tree and talked about camp, our new friends and our friends at home until it got dark. When I returned to my tent, most of the girls had already fallen asleep. Mary opened her eyes and looked at me , but 1 didn’t want to talk to her about it just then. I collapsed on my bed and hid myself under the blanket. 1 lay there, thought about David and his song and cried myself to sleep.

4 July Yosemite National Park 3 a.m.
Lisa: I was woken up by our counsellor, who asked me to go with her quickly. I got out of the tent and realized it was still night. My counsellor led me straight to the hospital tent. All of the counsellors and the camp ranger had been waiting for us there.
I panicked. Who was hurt? Was it Dima? I walked into the tent and saw my brother on a bed. He was very pale, there were bandages on his hand, and his eyes were closed. My heart fell as I rushed to the bed, but Dima had already opened his eyes and smiled.
188 Unit 5 Lessons 1, 2
“Гт OK,” he whispered. And then Daniel, David, all of the counsellors and the camp ranger came in. “Well, Lisa,” the ranger said. “Let’s talk all of us together. We must find out what had happened.” We sat down next to Dima’s bed and listened. This is what he told us.
“We had all been asleep when Daniel came back. But David must have been awake. He must have waited for Daniel, because the moment he turned up, David asked him something in an angry voice. His voice woke me up and I started to listen. They were talking very quietly, so I wasn’t able to hear them very well, but it was obvious that they were arguing. Then I saw the two of them leave the tent and head for the forest. I got up and followed them. But they ran really quickly and I lost them for a minute or two. When I finally caught up with them, they had stopped and were talking in angry voices again. I was lying in the bushes and watching them when I felt something touch my hand. I thought it was a tree branch and tried to move it away. Suddenly I felt a terrible pain in that hand and saw before my own eyes a huge bear. It must have scratched me. I cried out and after what seemed like a lifetime, I saw Daniel. I was paralyzed with horror and must have lost consciousness, because I don’t remember anything else. When I opened my eyes, Daniel was still next to me and the bear was gone.”
When Dima finished his story, I turned to Daniel and hugged him. “Thank you, thank you,” was all I could say. Daniel looked totally embarrassed. He was so modest. When the ranger asked him about what had happened, he said that he couldn’t really remember any detail and
Unit 5 Lessons 1,2 189
blushed. Then it was David’s turn. I noticed a strange expression come over his face. David looked as if he was about to make some important decision. Then he started to talk:
“Daniel and I had had a small disagreement and went to the forest to discuss it. Then suddenly we heard someone cry out. We rushed to the bushes and saw that Dima was lying on the ground and a bear cub was standing over him.
There was blood all over Dima and he wasn’t moving. This must have saved him because the bear didn’t move either. Then Daniel took a big stick and threw it at the bear and I ... left to check on something important.”
“You can’t have gone away!” I interrupted him. “But I had to! I told you— I had to check on something important.” David answered and suddenly his face relaxed as if he finally made up his mind. “I can’t believe you left them. Please tell me you didn’t,” I whispered. “There may have been the cub’s mother nearby,” said David quietly.
And then I started to shout: “Of course you left, David! Daniel made the choice for you as usual. He stayed with my brother and fought. Why is it that the more dangerous task is always taken by someone else?”
“Tm sorry that you are upset, Lisa. But believe me, I did what I thought was right,” said David firmly. He didn’t look me in the eyes. What a coward he was! And I went on, “I don’t believe you! Just admit that you got scared and ran away! Won’t it be so much more honest? Just say that you were a coward!”
David’s face blushed with anger, but when he spoke his tone was calm but firm. “I didn’t run away Lisa, but you can think whatever you want. I don’t really care.”
12 Do you think Dima, Daniel and David are telling the truth? Why?/Why not? Describe what you think really happened and try to answer these questions.

Употребление артиклей с существительными, обозначающими времена года: spring, summer, autumn, winter

It’s been a week since ... night when Dima was attacked by the bear. I will always remember that night now when I stayed with Dima and we talked until ... morning. I had never felt so close to my brother before. I was surprised to find out how much he had grown up and changed during ... summer. Dima told me everything he had heard in the forest. He said that David and Daniel both liked me and that I had been the reason for their fight. It turned out that Dima had always known that David had written that letter to me and he had even helped him with some of the Russian words. However, because I hadn’t mentioned it, my brother had kept his mouth shut too. But he should have told me. Everything would have been different then. Anyway, it was too late now. I told Dima it didn’t matter to me and he dropped the subject.
Dima was able to get back to his tent before ... dawn, so that no questions about his absence were asked. He still had to wear the bandage on his hand, but he made up a good story about a fight to explain it. ... next day was the last day of our trip. On ... Sunday evening we returned to camp and our life got back to almost normal. I say “almost” because the more I think about it, the more I understand how I was unfair to David. Now I realize that he has always liked me and tried to show me, but I refused to believe it. When I think about how badly I hurt him, I want to kick myself. Even if he had done something wrong, how could I have called him a coward? After all, what would I have done in a situation like that? My hero Daniel has been very quiet since we got back. When somebody tried to write an article about his heroism on the river, he got really angry. He also stays away from Dima and me, as if we had done something wrong. And David pretends I don’t exist. So by ... day I try to play it cool but by ... night I stay awake and try to think about what I could have done differently. ... most interesting summer of my life isn’t making me happy anymore. I’m looking forward to ... autumn, because in ... autumn I’ll be home.

All of these problems with David and Daniel were getting on my nerves so much that I decided to give up on Nature Club. Instead I concentrated on my other club — Drama. It isn’t the most popular club in the camp and most of the members are girls, but that’s fine with me.
Our director, Jasper Willoughby, is a retired actor and a real enthusiast. He always finds something interesting for us to do. One day he arranges master acting classes, the next day we get singing rehearsals. He also tells us a lot about the world of actors and playwrights, theatre and music. When he found out that I come from Russia, he was delighted. He turned out to be a big fan of Russian theatre. He told us that even at the time of the Cold Wax he used to come to Moscow just to see a new performance at the Taganka Theatre or to listen to an opera at the Bolshoi Theatre.

Не talked about so many playwrights, actors and directors, and even ballet dancers, all of whose names I hardly recognized. I knew who Visotsky, Lyubimov, Bulgakov, Dyagilev and Vishnevskaya were. But who Marius Petipas, Vasiliy Kachalov, Evgeniy Vakhtangov, Galina Ulanova were, I had no idea. I never expected to learn so much about Russian theatre in America. But Jasper was sad because he had been so busy lately that he hadn’t had time to fly to Moscow and catch any of the latest premieres. So I wasn’t surprised when he asked me to make a report on a play or a musical I had seen recently.

Lisa: So, Dima, Jasper from the Drama Club
asked me to make a report on an interesting Moscow theatre premiere. Which one should I tell him about?
Dima: Oh, I think you should talk about the Bolshoi or the Moscow Art Theatre, don’t you? They are world famous.

Dima:
No, I think he wants something new. Besides, he knows more about the Bolshoi than I do. I have only been there once and I thought the opera I saw was a bit of a drag.
Yes, that’s true. Wait a minute. Just before we left for the US, you went to a play at the Peter Fomenko Workshop Theatre, didn’t you? I remember you were really impressed.
Wait, how did you know? 1 wanted to tell you about it, but you didn’t want to listen.
Oh, yeah. That’s right. Sorry about that. I still want to know what made such a great impression on you.
What was it called?
It was called “The Fairy tale of the Forest of Arden” and was based on Shakespeare’s famous play “As You Like It”L Peter Fomenko and his friend Yuli Kim wrote the script. They took Shakespeare’s play and retold it in their own words. Peter Fomenko, one of today’s best theatre directors, also staged it.
What’s the plot? Is it a comedy or a drama?
It’s a comedy and full of witty remarks and funny situations.
One of Shakespeare’s most famous speeches, “All the world’s a stage” is in it. The main character is Rosalind, the only daughter of a duke. Her father, the duke, loses his throne to his younger brother and flees to the Forest of Arden. Rosalind has to follow him, as she is unhappy in her uncle’s court. She is accompanied by her loving cousin Celia and a court clown. Touchstone. Before she leaves, Rosalind falls in love with Orlando. Orlando goes to the forest to look for Rosalind. Celia’s father, the new duke, finds out that his daughter is gone and sends his servants to the forest to find her. In the end everybody finds their happiness in the Forest of Arden and even the two dukes make up.
But how did they manage to retell Shakespeare’s version?
What they did sounds great. Peter Fomenko wrote the rhymed text and Yuli Kim wrote a lot of witty and beautiful songs. The music is not pre-recorded and the actors sing without microphones.
How is it possible? Were you able to hear anything at all?

The theatre itself is very small. It’s not like a usual theatre with stalls, dress circle, upper circle and balcony. It only has stalls with two, three or four rows which are situated around the stage.
Dima: Why is their theater so tiny?
Lisa: I think the small size allows for interesting experiments with stage design.
Dima: What do you mean by interesting experiments?
Lisa: Well you sit so close to the actors that you can actually look into their eyes. This is unusual. Then since there is no real stage, the action takes place right in front of you, so you get the illusion of being a part of the performance.
The decorations are simple and even primitive but perfectly functional. The illusion is so strong that soon you forget that the duke’s castle is just a velvet armchair, the forest spring is just a bowl with water and the forest itself is just a couple of room plants in pots. The actors speak and sing in very natural voices as if they were simply talking to you.
Dima: And what about the actors’ performances?
Lisa: Very good indeed, although there are very few stars. The main parts are played by very young actors and some of them are just beginners. More than three hours of the performance flew by. The play stays with you after it’s over and makes you smile whenever you think about it.
Unit 5 Lessons 5, 6 203
Dima: It sounds amazing. I should have gone with you. Is it still on?
Lisa: I think so. But as far as I know, the tickets are usually sold out
months in advance. The audience always receives Fomenko’s work really well.
Dima: Oh, well. In any case, this is just what Jasper wants. It’s a successful premiere, it’s unusual and it’s based on Shakespeare, so it’s classic too.
Lisa: You’re right. I won’t find a better performance to write about.

falls in love with his own work. He is so much in love that he prays to Aphrodite to bring the statue to life and the goddess grants his wish. This myth inspired hundreds of poets and playwrights and each of them had his or her own interpretation of the events. Some of them believed that Pygmalion and his Galatea lived happily ever after, but some thought that Galatea, who became a real woman, disappointed Pygmalion. Her personality was not as beautiful as her face and body. And Bernard Shaw had his own version too.
Do you think the campers are going to enjoy a Greek myth?
Oh, no. Shaw just took the idea of the myth. His play is about the people who lived in London at the beginning of the 20th century.
And what is it about?
It starts with early evening in Covent Garden. People are on their way home after the theatre. They are caught in a heavy summer rainstorm and take shelter under the portico of St Paul’s Church in Covent Garden. A Cockney flower girl called Eliza Doolittle tries to sell some flowers to the ladies and gentlemen there. Henry Higgins, a professor of phonetics, makes a record of Eliza’s accent. He finds it totally disgusting, and tells the girl that her accent will keep her in the gutter for the rest of her life. It turns out that one of the people in the crowd is Colonel Pickering, an expert in Indian dialects, who has come all the way from India to meet the famous Henry Higgins, the author of “Universal Grammar”. The two men are delighted to meet each other and leave together.
Unit 5 Lessons 7, 8 209
Lisa: Well, Гт afraid I don’t understand. What is “Cockney” anyway? And why is Eliza’s accent disgusting? She is a Londoner, after all, so what problems can she possibly have with English?
Jasper: Let me explain. It is important to understand that at that time in English society, the way a person spoke was a symbol of their social status. There were different accents used on the British Isles, but only one variety was considered correct. Nowadays we know this variety as the Queen’s English or RP, short for “Received Pronunciation”. Received in this expression means “received in the best society”.
RP was typically used by graduates of Cambridge and Oxford, most of whom belonged to the aristocracy. So the moment one opened his / her mouth, the person was immediately placed, that is his financial status, place of birth, education and position in society became clear. The accent put very strict limitations on people’s lives. Those whose English accent was not good enough couldn’t hope to get good jobs. Even to work in a shop a girl was expected to have a proper accent. As Bernard Shaw wrote, “It is impossible for an Englishman to open his mouth without making some other Englishman hate or despise him.” The hated accent was, of course, the RP, and one of the most despised accents was the so-called “Cockney English”, spoken by the people who lived in the poor quarters of London’s East End. It used to be referred to as unworthy of being the speech of any person in the capital city of the Empire. Nowadays RP is still considered the accent of Standard English. Although it has lost its critical importance, accent still acts as a class barrier.
Alice: This is all very interesting, but what’s the message of Bernard
Shaw’s play then? Did he support all that snobbery? Aren’t personal qualities much more important than a person’s accent?
Jasper: Of course, they are. Bernard Shaw would agree with you, and this is exactly the message of his play. He showed that anyone can learn to speak correctly, but really important qualities like kindness, honesty and dignity cannot be taught.
Mary: I like this idea. Let’s stage “Pygmalion”. Besides, we’ve already got our Eliza.
Jane: Really? Who are you talking about?
210 Unit 5 Lessons 7, 8
Mary: Our Lisa Korolyova, of course. Her Russian accent sounds funny anyway, so she will be perfect for this part.
Lisa: But I’m not sure...
Jasper: I think Mary is right. You’ll make a good Eliza.
Mary: But we also need Henry Higgins and Colonel Pickering, and there are no boys in our club.
Jasper: Leave it to me. I think I know two guys who would be glad to help. Lisa: Who?
Jasper: You’ll see. It’s a surprise.
Read the Greek myth again and discuss it. What's the main idea of this myth? Why has it inspired so many playwrights and poets over the years?
Read the part about RP and explain the meaning of the following sentences.
1. The way a person spoke was a symbol of social status.
2. It is impossible for an Englishman to open his mouth without making some other Englishman hate or despise him.
3. Although it has lost its critical importance, accent still acts as a class barrier.
Read the part about RP and mark these statements true, false or not
(If there is not enough information in the text).
1. In the beginning of the 20th century one’s accent played a very important role in one’s future.
2. At the time of Bernard Shaw’s play, most people had an RP accent.
3. Nowadays very few people in Great Britain pay any attention to accent.
4. RP stands for “Received Pronunciation”.
5. Oxford and Cambridge graduates typically used RP.
6. RP is the same as the Queen’s English.
7. Cockney English is an accent used outside the UK.
8. Cockney English is respected by people from other areas of Great Britain.
9. The way Queen Elizabeth speaks is an example of a perfect RP accent.

16 July Camp Pindand
Jasper kept his word and next day he proudly presented his surprise: David as Higgins and Daniel as Pickering! The moment I saw David again, I knew I would have to leave the play. I wouldn’t be able to spend all this time with him. I decided to wait until the end of the rehearsal to tell Jasper that I wouldn’t be able to play the part of Eliza. He could easily replace me...
And then something strange happened. While Daniel was turning the page of his script, he cut his finger. Then his finger started bleeding. As in a kind of trance, Daniel watched the drops of blood and suddenly fell to the floor. I couldn’t believe my eyes. Our macho Daniel had fainted!
The whole scene was so unexpected that some girls even started to giggle. After Daniel was taken to see the doctor, Jasper explained to us that a lot of people can’t stand the sight of blood (не выносят вида крови) and that there is nothing funny about it — it’s something a person can’t control. And then suddenly another scene came to my mind.
212 Unit 5 Lessons 7, 8
That night when Dima was attacked by the bear, my brother was covered with blood and Daniel was the first to reach him. But Daniel must have fainted then too. So it couldn’t have been him that saved Dima, and there was only one other person there...
I looked over and saw David. He was standing in the far corner of the room, trying to pretend that he wasn’t there at all. I marched across the room and stopped right in front of him. But I didn’t have the courage to look him in the eyes. “I’m so sorry,” I whispered. “I have been selfish, unfair, egoistic...”
I was trying to think of more words to describe my stupid behaviour, but he interrupted me. “No, Lisa. I’m the one who has to apologize, not you. That night when Dima was attacked, Daniel fainted when he saw your brother, but he never asked me to lie for him. It was all my idea. I saw his embarrassment and thought it would be better if nobody found out. So I tried to protect Daniel and made him hate himself even more. He felt so guilty that he couldn’t even talk to you. You must have missed his company. It’s all my fault.”
He turned away to leave, but this time I was ready to say something. “Do you know that I have always dreamt about an acting career?” I said cheerfully. “I am going to need a lot of help to learn my part. Will you help me?” David nodded and smiled, and then he nodded again and then we started to laugh.

PYGMALION by George Bernard Shaw (Extract from Act II)
The next day at 11 a.m. Higgins’s laboratory in Wimpole Street. Pickering is seated at the table. Higgins is standing near him. He is of the energetic, scientific type, heartily interested in everything that can be studied as a scientific subject, and careless about himself and
other people, including their feelings. He is so entirely frank and void of malice that he remains likeable even in his least reasonable moments.^
MRS PEARCE: [Hesitating] A young woman wants to see you, sir.
HIGGINS: A young woman! What does she want?
MRS PEARCE: Well, sir, she says you’ll be glad to see her when you know what she’s come about. She’s quite a common girl, sir. Г1)
HIGGINS: Oh, that’s all right, Mrs Pearce. Has she an interesting accent?
MRS PEARCE: Oh, something dreadful, sir, really. I don’t know how you can take an interest in it.
HIGGINS: [To Pickering] Let’s have her up. (2)
MRS PEARCE: [Returning] This is the young woman, sir.
The flower girl enters in state. She has a hat with three ostrich feathers, orange, sky-blue, and red. She has a nearly clean apron, and the shoddy coat has been tidied a little.
HIGGINS: Why, this is the girl I lotted down last night. (3) She’s no use. [To the girl] Be off with vou: (4) I don’t want you.

HIGGINS: Good enough for what?
THE FLOWER GIRL: Good enough for ye-oo'^. Now you know, don’t you? I’m come^ to have lessons, I am. And to pay for em too: make no mistake.
HIGGINS: Well!!! [Recovering his breath with a gaspM What do you expect me to say to you?
THE FLOWER GIRL: Well, if you was^ a gentleman, you might ask me to sit down, I think. Don’t I tell you I’m bringing you business?
HIGGINS: Pickering, shall we ask this baggage to sit down or shall we throw her out of the window?
THE FLOWER GIRL: [Running away in terror to the piano, where she turns at bay.] Ah-ah-ah-ow-ow-ow-oo! I won’t be called a baggage when I’ve offered to pay like any lady.

MRS PEARCE: How can you be such a foolish ignorant girl as to think you could afford to pay Mr Higgins?
THE FLOWER GIRL: Why shouldn’t I? I know what lessons cost as well as you do; and I’m ready to pay.
HIGGINS: How much?
THE FLOWER GIRL: [Coming back to him, triumphant] Now you’re talking!
HIGGINS: What’s your name?

HIGGINS: [Walking up and down the room.] You know, Pickering, if you consider a shilling, not as a simple shilling, but as a percentage of this girl’s income, it works out as fully equivalent to sixty or seventy guineas from a millionaire^^ PICKERING: How so?

HIGGINS: Somebody is going to touch you, with a broomstick, if you don’t stop snivelling. Sit down.
LIZA: [Obeying slowly] Ah-ah-ah-ow-oo-o! One would think you was^^ my father.
HIGGINS: If I decide to teach you, I’ll be worse than two fathers to you.
Here! [He offers her his silk handkerchief]
LIZA: What’s this for?
HIGGINS: To wipe your eyes. To wipe any part of your face that feels moist. Remember: that’s your handkerchief; and that’s your sleeve. Don’t mistake the one for the other if you wish to become a lady in a shop. [Liza, utterly bewildered, stares helplessly at him.]
MRS PEARCE: It’s no use talking to her like that, Mr Higgins: she doesn’t understand you. Besides, you’re quite wrong: she doesn’t do it that way at all. [She takes the handkerchief]
LIZA: [Snatching it] Here! You give me that handkerchief. He give^^ it to me, not to you.
PICKERING: [Laughing] He did. I think it must be regarded as her property, Mrs Pearce.

HIGGINS: [Carried away^^] Yes: in six months — in three if she has a good ear and a quick tongue — I’ll take her anywhere and pass her off as anything.^^ We’ll start today: now! This moment!

LIZA: You’re no gentleman, you’re not, to talk of such things. I’m a good girl, I am; and I know what the like of you are, I do.
HIGGINS: We want none of your Lisson Grove^^ prudery here, young woman. You’ve got to learn to behave like a duchess. Take her away, Mrs Pearce. If she gives you any trouble wallop her.

HIGGINS: Put her in the dustbin.
LIZA: Ah-ah-ah-ow-ow-oo!
PICKERING: Oh come, Higgins! Be reasonable. MRS PEARCE: [Resolutely] You must be reasonable, Mr Higgins: really you must. You can’t walk over everybody like this.
HIGGINS: [With professional exquisiteness of modulation.^^] I walk over everybody! My dear Mrs Pearce, my dear Pickering, I never had the slightest intention of walking over anyone. All I propose is that we should be kind to this poor girl. We must help her to prepare and fit herself for her new station in life.
(Liza, reassured, steals back to her chair.)
HIGGINS: [Patiently] What’s the matter?
MRS PEARCE: Well, the matter is, sir, that you can’t take a girl up like that as if you were picking up a pebble on the beach.
HIGGINS: Why not?
MRS PEARCE: Why not! But you don’t know anything about her. What about her parents? She may be married.
LIZA: Garn!27

LIZA: I got my feelings same as anyone else.
HIGGINS: [To Pickering] You see the difficulty?
PICKERING: Eh? What difficulty?
HIGGINS: To get her to talk grammar. fl5^ The pronunciation is easy enough.
LIZA: I don’t want to talk grammar. I want to talk like a lady.
MRS PEARCE: Will vou please keep to the point. fl6~) Mr Higgins. I want to know on what terms the girl is to be here. And what is to become of her when you’ve finished vour teaching? (17') You must look ahead a little,
HIGGINS: [Impatiently] What’s to become of her if I leave her in the gutter? Tell me that, Mrs Pearce,
MRS PEARCE: That’s her own business, not yours, Mr Higgins.
HIGGINS: Well, when I’ve done with her, we can throw her back into the gutter; and then it will be her own business again; so that’s all right.
LIZA: Oh, you’ve no feeling heart in you: you don’t care for nothing but yourself. [She rises and takes the floor resolutely] Here! I’ve had enough of this. I’m going. [Making for the door.] You ought to be ashamed of yourself, you ought.
PICKERING: Excuse me, Higgins; but I really must interfere. Mrs Pearce is quite right. If this girl is to put herself in your hands for six months for an experiment in teaching, she must understand thoroughly what she’s doing.
LIZA; Ah-ah-ow-ool
HIGGINS: There! That’s all you get out of Eliza. Ah-ah-ow-oo! No use explaining. As a military man you ought to know that. Give her orders: that’s what she wants. Eliza, you are to live here for the next six months and, learning how to speak beautifully, like a lady in a florist’s shop. If you’re good and do whatever you’re told, you shall sleep in a proper bedroom, and have lots to eat, and money to buy chocolates

and take rides in taxis. If you’re naughty and idle, you will sleep in the back kitchen among the black beetles, and be walloped by Mrs Pearce with a broomstick. At the end of six months you shall go to Buckingham Palace in a carriage, beautifully dressed. If the King finds out you’re not a lady, you will be taken by the police to the Tower of London, where your head will be cut off as a warning to other presumptuous flower girls. If you are not found out, you shall have a present of seven-and-sixpence to start life with as a lady in a shop. If you refuse this offer, you will be a most ungrateful and wicked girl; and the angels will weep for you. [To Pickering] Now are you satisfied, Pickering? [To Mrs Pearce] Can I put it more plainly and fairly, Mrs Pearce?
MRS PEARCE: [Patiently] I think you’d better let me speak to the girl properly in private. Of course I know you don’t mean her any harm; but when you get what you call interested in people’s accents, you never think or care what may happen to them or you. Come with me, Eliza.
HIGGINS: That’s all right. Thank you, Mrs Pearce. Bundle her off to the bathroom. Q8^
LIZA: [Rising reluctantly and suspiciously.] You’re a great bully, you are. I won’t stay here if I don’t like. I won’t let nobody wallop me. I never asked to go to Bucknam Palace, I didn’t. I was never in trouble with the police, not me. I’m a good girl — ?

The Verb (Глагол)
Глагол — это часть речи, которая обозначает действие и отвечает на вопросы что делать? что сделать?
Английский глагол имеет три основные формы:
I форма — инфинитив (the Infinitive)
II форма — прошедшее неопределенное время (the Past Simple Tense)
III форма — причастие прошедшего времени (the Past Participle)
The Present Progressive Tense^ (Настоящее длящееся время) Употребление the Present Progressive Tense
Глаголы в форме the Present Progressive употребляются:
• для выражения длящегося действия, которое происходит в точно указанный момент в настоящем:
She is reading а book now.— Сейчас она читает книгу.
• для выражения длящегося действия, которое происходит в настоящий период времени, но не обязательно в момент речи:
They are moving to a new flat.— Они переезжают на новую квартиру. (Переезжать можно в течение недели, месяца. Процесс этот длительный, но не постоянный.)
• для выражения заранее запланированных действий, которые произойдут в будущем:
I am leaving tomorrow.— Я уезжаю завтра.
We are going to the cinema tonight.— Мы идем в кино сегодня вечером.
• для придания эмоциональной окраски действиям, которые вызывают раздражение, критику, насмещку. В этом сл)^ае в предложении всегда присутствует наречие always (вечно), constantly (постоянно):
You are always being late.— Вечно ты опаздываещь.
Не is constantly phoning me when Vm busy.— Он постоянно звонит мне, когда я занята.
Справочник с грамматическим материалом, изученным во 2-9-х классах, помещен в рабочую тетрадь № 1 для 10-го класса.

Во временах группы Progressive обычно не употребляются глаголы, которые выражают не действия, а состояния, отношения между предметами или людьми. Такие глаголы называются статическими (state verbs). Такие состояния не поддаются непосредственному наблюдению. Статические глаголы не могут употребляться в целом ряде видовременных форм, в частности в форме Progressive (Continuous). К статическим относятся глаголы:
1) обозначающие восприятия, ощущения: to hear, to see, to feel, to smell, to sound, to taste, to look;
2) обозначающие эмоции: to love, to like, to dislike, to respect, to hate, to adore, to care (for);

5) выражающие отношения: to be, to belong to, to concern, to consist of, to contain, to depend on, to deserve, to differ, to have, to include, to involve, to owe, to own, to possess, to remain, to require, to resemble, to result, to suit;
6) некоторые другие: to agree, to allow, to astonish, to claim, to consent, to envy, to fail, to forbid, to forgive, to object, to prefer, to prevent, to puzzle, to refuse, to remind:

Ho в форме the Present Progressive употребляются глаголы:
to think — в значении „думать"
to look — в значении „смотреть"
to see — в значении „встречаться"
to have — в составе устойчивых выражений:
to have breakfast/lunch/dinner — завтракать, обедать, ужинать; to have a bath / a shower — принимать ванну, душ

Образование the Present Progressive Tense
am/is/are + Participle I
The Present Progressive Tense образуется c помощью вспомогательного глагола to be в the Present Simple (am/is/are) и основного глагола в I форме с окончанием -ing. Такая форма называется Participle I (причастие настоящего времени).
Если глагол оканчивается на -е, то при прибавлении -ing она отбрасывается: take — taking, give — giving.
Конечная согласная удваивается, если ей предшествует ударная гласная, стоящая в закрытом слоге, и прибавляется -ing: cut — cutting, begin — beginning.
Если буква 1 является конечной, она удваивается и прибавляется -ing: travel — travelling.

Модальные глаголы
В английском языке есть глаголы, выражающие не действие, а отношение к действию. Они называются модальными. К модальным глаголам относятся глаголы сап, must, should, may. Они обозначают возможность, способность, вероятность, необходимость совершения действия, выраженного основным глаголом:
Не сап play tennis.— Он умеет играть в теннис.
You must help him.— Ты должен ему помочь.
She should eat more vegetables.— Ей следует есть больше овощей.
You may phone те tomorrow.— Вы можете позвонить мне завтра.
Модальные глаголы имеют не все формы, которые имеют другие глаголы.
236 Grammar Reference
Инфинитив, следующий за этими глаголами, употребляется без частицы to.
В 3 лице ед. числа настоящего времени модальные глаголы не имеют окончания -S.
сап
Модальный глагол сап выражает умение, способность совершить действие:
Не сап swim.— Он умеет плавать.
She could sing very well when she was twenty.— Она могла очень хорошо петь, когда ей было двадцать лет.
Модальный глагол сап имеет два времени: настоящее и прошедшее — форму сап для всех лиц единственного и множественного числа настоящего времени и форму could для всех лиц единственного и множественного числа прошедшего времени.
Вопросительная форма образуется без вспомогательного глагола, причем модальный глагол ставится перед подлежащим:

Отрицательная форма образуется с помощью частицы not, которая ставится непосредственно после модального глагола и пишется с ним слитно:
She cannot (can’t) swim.— Она не умеет плавать.
Для выражения способности совершить действие также употребляется словосочетание to be able to (быть в состоянии). Это сочетание употребляется в разных временах:
Не is able to translate the text.— Он может перевести текст.

Придаточные предложения времени и условия
В английских придаточных предложениях времени и условия для выражения будущих действий употребляется the Present Simple, а не the Future Simple.
Английские придаточные предложения времени присоединяются к главному предложению с помощью союзов when (когда), till/until (до тех пор пока (не), as soon as (как только), after (после того как), as (в то время как), while (в то время как, пока), before (прежде чем):
Не will send an e-mail as soon as he gets the parcel.— Он отправит сообщение (когда?), как только получит посылку.
When they arrive. ГИ phone you.— Когда они приедут, я вам позвоню.
Ги wait till he comes back.— Я подожду до тех пор, пока он не вернется. We’ll watch TV after we do our homework.— Мы будем смотреть телевизор после того, как сделаем уроки.
We’ll have to clean his room before he arrives.— Надо убрать его комнату до того, как он приедет.
Английские придаточные предложения условия присоединяются к главному предложению с помощью союзов if (если), unless (если не), in case (в случае, если), on condition that (при условии что), provided that (при условии что):
If he asks, she’ll tell him the truth.— Если он спросит, она скажет ему правду.
Союзы unless, till, untill имеют отрицательное значение, и, поскольку в английском предложении возможно только одно отрицание, в придаточном предложении больше отрицания не нужно. Предложение Я не смогу
244 Grammar Reference
ничего сделать, если он не согласится помочь переводится на английский язык следующим образом: I won't be able to do anything unless he agrees to help.
Нельзя сказать: I won't be able to do anything unless he doesn’t agree to help.

Нельзя сказать: They won't send us the book until we don't pay for it.
Придаточное предложение может стоять как после главного предложения, так и перед ним. Если придаточное предложение стоит перед главным предложением, оно отделяется запятой:
We'll go to the theatre if my friend phones me.
If my friend phones me, we’ll go to the theatre.
Важно различать виды придаточных предложений, которые присоединяются к главному предложению с помощью союзов when и if.
Если это изъяснительное придаточное предложение, то употребляется the Future Simple Tense:
I don't know when he'll come.— Я не знаю (чего?), когда он придет.
Не asks her if she'll go to the cinema.— Он спрашивает ее (о чем?),
пойдет ли она в кино.
Если это придаточное предложение времени, то употребляется the Present Simple Tense:
When he comes, he'll help you.— Когда он придет, он поможет тебе.
Ifl go to the cinema. I'll phone you.— Если я пойду в кино, я позвоню тебе.

The Present Perfect Tense (Настоящее совершенное время)
Употребление the Present Perfect Tense
Глаголы в форме the Present Perfect употребляются для выражения действия, которое произошло (завершилось) до настоящего момента, но результат этого действия видим сейчас, то есть своим результатом действие, совершенное в прошлом, связано с настоящим временем:
Where is your money? — I have lost it.
Где твои деньги? — Я их потерял. (Деньги пропали раньше, неважно когда. Важно то, что у меня их нет сейчас.)
Vve cut ту finger. I can't write.— Я порезал палец. (Палец я порезал раньше, а сейчас у меня есть след от пореза.) Я не могу писать.
The Present Perfect Tense употребляется без указания времени, поскольку для говорящего важно не время совершения действия, а сам факт его совершения:
Grammar Reference 255
Гт cold. Somebody has opened the window.— Я замерз. Кто-то открыл окно.
The Present Perfect Tense часто употребляется с наречиями: just (только что), already (уже), yet (еще), ever (когда-нибудь), never (никогда), lately (за последнее время):
Не has just phoned.— Он только что позвонил.
Наречие yet употребляется в вопросительных и отрицательных предложениях:
Have you spoken to her yet? — Ты уже с ней разговаривал?
I haven't seen him yet.— Я еще его не видел.
Наречие ever употребляется в вопросительных предложениях, never — в отрицательных. Место этих наречий между have (has) и основным глаголом:
I have never played golf.— Я никогда не играл в гольф.
Have you ever been to New York? — Вы когда-нибудь были в Нью-Йорке?
The Present Perfect Tense употребляется:
• с обстоятельствами, обозначающими еще не истекший период времени: today (сегодня), this week (на этой неделе), this month (в этом месяце), this year (в этом году):
I haven’t seen her today.— Я не видел ее сегодня.
• с предлогом since — с (с какого-то прошлого момента до настоящего времени):
/ have known her since 1974.— Я знаю ее с 1974 года.
• с союзом since — с тех пор, как (который вводит придаточное предложение, где должно употребляться the Past Simple Tense):
The haven’t met since they finished school.— Они не встречались с тех пор, как закончили школу.
• с наречием since — с тех пор:
I have never written to him since.— Я никогда не писал ему с тех пор.
• со статическими глаголами для выражения процесса, который начался в прошлом и все еще продолжается:
I have known ту best friend since we were children.— Я знаю своего лучшего друга с тех пор, как мы были детьми.

Различия в употреблении the Present Perfect Tense и the Past Simple Tense
The Present Perfect Tense The Past Simple Tense
I can't unlock the door, because I have lost my key.— Я не могу отпереть дверь, потому что я потерял ключ. (Ключ потерян в прошлом, неизвестно когда, но сейчас я не могу отпереть дверь. Важен факт отсутствия ключа.) I lost my key two weeks ago.— Я потерял ключ две недели назад. (Ключ потерян две недели назад. Для говорящего важно, когда он был потерян.)
I have visited ту granny twice this year.— Я посетил бабушку дважды в этом году. (Год еще не закончился.) I saw them today at 10 o'clock.— Я видел их сегодня в 10 часов. (Есть уточнение, когда закончился упомянутый отрезок времени.)
I have never seen а UFO.— Я никогда не видел НЛО. (Я пока еще никогда не видел НЛО, но моя жизнь продолжается. Возможно, я еще его увижу.) Queen Elizabeth I never saw a car.— Королева Елизавета I никогда не видела машину. (Говоря о Елизавете I, мы говорим о законченном периоде времени в прошлом, поскольку она давно умерла.)
The Present Perfect Tense не употребляется с обозначением места или времени совершения действия и, следовательно, не употребляется в вопросах, начинающихся с When и Where.
Исключение составляет вопрос Where have you been? — Где ты был?, если он задается в начале разговора.

The Present Perfect Progressive Tense (Настоящее совершенное длящееся время)
Употребление the Present Perfect Progressive Tense
The Present Perfect Progressive Tense употребляется для выражения длящегося действия, которое началось в прошлом, все еще продолжается в настоящее время и определенным образом подводит итог продолжительности этого действия:
/ have been reading this book for a week.— Я читаю эту книгу уже неделю.
Grammar Reference 259
в предложениях с the Present Perfect Progressive Tense, как правило, указывается период времени, в течение которого происходит действие. Период времени может быть выражен:
• обстоятельствами времени типа: all my life (всю жизнь), all these years (все эти годы), lately (в последнее время):
/ have been working longer hours lately.— В последнее время я остаюсь на работе дольше.
• обстоятельствами времени, вводимыми предлогом for (в течение): for а week (в течение недели), for five years (в течение пяти лет), for а long time (в течение длительного времени):
Lena and Sveta have already been talking on the phone for half an hour.— Лена и Света разговаривают по телефону уже полчаса.
• обстоятельствами времени, вводимыми since. В зависимости от контекста since переводится по-разному: с; с тех пор; с тех пор, как:
She has been dreaming about a dog since she was a child.— Она мечтает о собаке с детства.
Jane gave те this CD on Monday. I have been listening to it since then.— Джейн дала мне диск в понедельник. С тех пор я его слушаю.
She has been sleeping since she got back from her trip.— Она спит с тех пор, как вернулась из поездки.
Таким образом, since используется для обозначения момента начала действия.
The Present Perfect Progressive Tense может употребляться без указания на период времени, в течение которого происходило действие. В таких случаях из контекста понятно, что действие только что закончилось и оставило своеобразный „след“, который служит объяснением положения вещей в момент речи:
Уои look tired.— I have been working on a report.
Ты выглядишь усталой.— Я работала над докладом.
The Present Perfect Progressive Tense не употребляется:
• со статическими глаголами.
Вместо the Present Perfect Progressive Tense эти глаголы употребляются в the Present Perfect Tense:
/ have known my best friend since we were children.— Я знаю своего лучшего друга с тех пор, как мы были детьми.
• если имеется полное отрицание действия:
I haven’t played the guitar since I broke my arm.— Я не играю на гитаре с тех пор, как сломал руку.

Способы перевода предложений в страдательном залоге на русский язык
Предложения в страдательном залоге на русский язык переводятся:
• с помощью глагола быть и краткой формы причастия страдательного залога
Обратите внимание, что глагол быть в настоящем времени опускается:
The letter is written.— Письмо написано.
The letter was written.— Письмо было написано.
The letter will be written.— Письмо будет написано.
• неопределенно-личными предложениями:
The room is cleaned every day.— Комнату убирают каждый день.
The room was cleaned every day.— Комнату убирали каждый день.
The room will be cleaned every day.— Комнату будут убирать каждый день.
• с помощью глаголов, которые оканчиваются на -сл, если предложения стоят в the Present Progressive Passive и the Past Progressive Pa.ssive:
The house is being built.— Дом строится.
The house was being built, when I was a child.— Дом строился, когда я был ребенком.
The house will be built.— Дом построят.
Особенности употребления страдательного залога
Одной конструкции в действительном залоге в английском языке могут соответствовать две конструкции в страдательном залоге, то есть прямое и косвенное дополнение действительного залога могут стать подлежащими страдательного залога со следующими глаголами:
to give smb smth/smth to smb — давать кому-либо что-либо/ что-либо кому-либо
to send smb smth / smth to smb — посылать кому-либо что-либо / что-либо кому-либо
to pay smb smth/smth to smb — платить кому-либо что-либо/ что-либо кому-либо
to promise smb smth / smth to smb — обещать кому-либо что-либо / что-либо кому-либо
to offer smb smth/smth to smb — предлагать кому-либо что-либо/ что-либо кому-либо
to leave smb smth / smth to smb — оставлять кому-либо что-либо / что-либо кому-либо
264 Grammar Reference
to show smb smth/smth to smb — показывать кому-либо что-либо/ что-либо кому-либо
to tell smb smth/smth to smb — рассказывать кому-либо что-либо/ что-либо кому-либо
Рассмотрим предложение в действительном залоге:
The teacher gave him a book.— Учитель дал ему книгу.
В этом предложении два дополнения him и а book.
him — косвенное дополнение, так как отвечает на вопрос кому?
а book — прямое дополнение, так как отвечает на вопрос что?
Оба эти дополнения могут стать подлежащими предложений в страдательном залоге.
The Active Voice The Passive Voice
The teacher gave him a book.— Учитель дал ему книгу. The book was given to him./He was given a book.— Ему дали книгу.
Му friend told те а funny story.— Друг рассказал мне смешную историю. A funny story was told to me. I was told a funny story.— Мне расказали смешную историю.
В страдательной конструкции с предложным дополнением предлог сохраняет свое место после глагола:
They sent for the doctor.— Они послали за доктором. (Active Voice)
The doctor was sent for.— 3a доктором послали. (Passive Voice)
Наиболее употребительные глаголы с предлогами: to send for smb/smth — посылать за кем-то/чем-то to object to smb/smth — возражать кому-то/чему-то to insist on smth — настаивать на чем-то to refer to smb/smth — ссылаться на кого-то/что-то to laugh at smb/smth — смеяться над кем-то/чем-то to listen to smb / smth — слушать кого-то / что-то to wait for smb/smth — ждать кого-то/что-то
They often refer to this writer. He is very famous.— This writer is often referred to.
Look! Everybody is laughing at Peter. He has made the same mistake again.— Peter is being laughed at.
Everybody is waiting for you! Don’t be late again! — You are being waited for.
Mary insisted on this plan. I couldn’t disagree with her.— This plan was insisted on.
