Talking about family and friends (рассказывая о своей семье и друзьях)
I've got two brothers and a sister. My brothers are twins (= two children born to one mother at the same time), and they are three years younger than me. I'm the oldest a take after my father (= I am similar to him in appearance and/or character). My sister takes after my father in some ways, but she looks like my mother (= her appearance similar to my mother's). We're a close family (= we have a good relationship/see each other a lot). My best friend Pete is an only child (= without brothers or sisters); he spends a lot of time with us and he's almost one of the family.
Family names (имена)
Your parents give you a first name, e.g. James and Sarah are common first names in Britain. Your family name, usually called your surname, is the one that all the family have e.g. Smith and Jones. Yourfull name is all the names you have, e.g. Sarah Jane Smith.
Changing times (времена меняются)
In some parts of the world, couples may live together but do not get married. In this relationship they often call each other their partner. Where the child or children live(s) with just one parent, especially after the parents have separated (= they don't live together any more), these are sometimes called single-parent families.
Friends (друзья)
an old friend (= someone you have known for a long time)
a close friend (= a good friend/someone you like and trust)
your best friend (= the one friend you feel closest to)
classmates (= other people in your class)
flatmates (= people you share a house/flat with, who are not your family)
colleagues(= people you work with; they may or may not be friends)
Ex-(бывший)
We use this for a relationship that we had in the past but do not have now:
The children stay with my ex-husband at the weekend. I saw an ex-girlfriend of mine at the disco last night.

What does a "Healthy Life" Mean?
1) _____________________________________________________. Those who pursue the latest fitness fashion are convinced that staying in good physical form requires much more than regular exercises and balanced meals. For anyone who really wants to be healthy, fitness has become an integral part of their lives. A lot of health and fitness clubs and public leisure centers that were created in many countries indicate the popularity of sports during the past thirty years.
2) _________________________________________________. First of all, it's necessary to do exercises. People of different ages can design exercises that will fit them. Running, jumping, swimming, bending and stretching are among the most popular exercises. Many people prefer jogging which is the cheapest and the most accessible sport. Walking is a very popular activity too. A healthy body becomes a fashion, an ideal of the life today. Even moderate physical activity can protect against heart disease and strokes as well as improve general health and the quality of life. Everyone can benefit from being a little more active, healthier and enjoyable life.
3) _____________________________________________. Another activity that is popular in our country is roller-skating. Today it has reached its peak in our country. At present the lack of facilities make enthusiasts use city pavements or parking lots.
4) ______________________________________________. According to the statistics, nowadays 60% of men and 91% of women are overweight. That's why I think that everybody must do exercises, don't smoke, eat healthy food, lots of fruits and vegetables. And if people take care of themselves, everybody will be healthy.

You are the best student in your Academy and you are absolutely sure that this language will be very useful for your future career. You friend doesn't care about this. So, try to find another reason to convince him to learn English.
2. Two teachers are discussing the problem of learning foreign languages in kindergartens. The first thinks that it is very early to master any foreign language. The second believes that every kid should start learning foreign language as early as possible.
3. Do you think that the use of English words is dangerous for the purity of our native Russian language.

TAPESCRIPTS
Speaker 1
Well, to be honest, learning English isn’t my idea of fun. I mean, rock concerts are fun. Моtorbikes are fun. Snowboarding is fun. Learning English isn’t fun. It’s hard work. But it’s worth it. I don't need English every day in my job right now. Bur if I want to get on my career, I know I’m going to need it more and more. English is where the money is, so I just think of it as an investment in my future. We Swiss are very practical like that.
Speaker 2
Hm, well, I accept that English is the language of the media, but I’m not so sure about business. Реrsonallу, I know a lot of business people who speak almost no English at all. Twenty-five per cent of the world speaks English. OK, but that means 75 % don’t. The way I see it, if I'm trying to sell you something, I should speak уour language. But if you come to Ecuador to sell me something, then you should speak Spanish.
Speaker 3
Coming from a tiny country like the Netherlands means we’ve always had to speak foreign languages. So it’s nothing new for us. The same goes for people from Luxemburg, Belgium, Scandinavia. Eighty per cent of Dutch people speak English. Most of us speak some German too, or French. We certainly don't expect anybody to speak Dutch! In fact, the firm I work for recently introduced English as the official company language. So now I speak English all day – to other Dutch people!
Speaker 4
I’m afraid I really don't like English that much. I find the pronunciation difficult. It’s certainly not as beautiful a language as my language, which is Italian. And, anyway, I think it’s more difficult as yon get older to learn foreign languages. But my company wants me to learn English, so I don’t really have much choice. If a quarter of the world speaks it, I suppose I must to. But I’ll always think in Italian. My brain works in Italian.
Speaker 5
I don't know why people who speak European languages complain about learning English. Try learning it when your native language is Korean! Actually, I find I can speak English OК, if I’m doing business with other non-native speakers, like Argentinians or Japanese. But with native English speaker, I do feel at a disadvantage. I've heard that 66% of British people don’t speak a foreign language at all. Hardly, surprising when so many of us have tо learn English.
Speaker 6
Well, actually, I love English. It's true the pronunciation is quite hard to get right, but the grammar is much simpler than my language, Hungarian – at least at the beginning. That’s the thing about English – it’s easy to speak a little quite quickly. It gets harder later, of course. Frankly, I don’t know why some French and Germans are against using English words. It seems to me that English is full of foreign words – especially French and German!
