SAFARI PARKS

A safari park is like a large zoo, where the animals live in natural conditions (естественные условия). There are several safari parks in Britain and they are very popular places for visit. One of the most famous is at Windsor, which is close to London airport.

You can visit some parts of the safari park on foot. Here you can see the animals that are not dangerous: giraffes, zebras, camels and antelopes. The animals walk around as if they were (как если бы они были в…) in Africa.

Safari parks also have lions, tigers, leopards and other dangerous animals. They cannot live with the other animals, because they would (они бы…) eat them. They would also eat the visitors, so they have to drive (поэтому им приходится ездить в машине) through the parts where these animals live. You must not (нельзя) open the windows and you must not get out of the car.

Safari parks are much better than zoos, because the animals do not live in small cages.

MY BROTHERS

I have twin brothers, Tim and Tom. They are very similar and a lot of people don’t know which twin is twin. They both have blonde hair and blue eyes, and they always wear jeans and T-shirts. They like wearing the same things, and they like doing the same things too. For example, they both like pop music and they’re crazy about football and computers. They go to a football match every Saturday. They’d like to play computer games every night, but our mother says they can’t because they have a lot of homework. Although they are twins, they aren’t the same in every way. For example, Tim works hard at school, but Tom doesn’t. He’s a bit lazy. Our mother is often away from home because she travels a lot in her job, so we all help in the house. Most of the time it’s fine, but sometimes we fight a little! Although they are noisy and sometimes naughty, I think it’s fun to have twin brothers.

One day his three sons gathered in his room to hear the reading of the will*.

“I leave to my sons my garden and the treasure which lies buried there.

The three sons looked at one another. “Treasure!” they exclaimed. “Treasure buried in the garden! If we hire* others to dig there, they may steal* our treasure from us. We must work in the garden until we find it.”

So the sons divided the garden into three parts and began to work harder than ever before. The dug from one end of the garden to the other end, but they could not find the treasure.

That year, however, the fruit trees brought so much fruit, that when the three sons sold* the fruit they got much money. It seemed to be a fortune*.

English people say “Other countries have a climate, in England we have weather”. The weather changes more often in England than in other countries. British winters are mild and springs are cool because of the winds from the Atlantic Ocean. They blow two days out of every three.

In spring sunshine often changes for showers during the day. So in spring one must have an umbrella or a raincoat in England. Spring is the season when nature awakens from its long winter sleep. Everything is full of new life again. The days grow longer and warmer; the ground gets covered with green grass. Summer is the hottest season in England. It’s time for holidays, when people go to the seaside for sunbathing and swimming. It usually gets hot in July. The summer nights are short, but they are wonderful.

As for autumn it isn’t so nice. It’s a season of winds and beautiful sunsets. The leaves turn yellow and reddish and fall to the ground and the birds migrate to warm countries. In autumn the days become shorter. There is a short period of sunny weather in September called Indian summer. In England September and October are warm and dry, but November is the foggiest month. Nobody likes late autumn. Everything looks gloomy (мрачно). In winter it sometimes rains and sometimes it snows. The rivers in England never freeze, that’s why children there go skating very seldom.

1. This big tropical country is famous for its different climate in different regions. The main factor forming the climate here is monsoon. The monsoon, also known as the rainy season, starts in June and finishes in September. The rainfall starts at the end of May. The post-monsoon season spans the months of October to December. The months of November and October normally have a bright weather.

2. This large island continent is in the southern hemisphere. So the seasons are opposite from the northern hemisphere. The temperature contrast between summer and winter is small here. It is one of the driest continents on earth. The dry climate, especially in the northern region leads to droughts, heat waves and bushfires. The inland deserts can remain totally dry for years whilst rains can produce floods in some of the regions.

3. Because of the Gulf Stream, this northern country has a friendlier climate than the other northern territories like Alaska, Greenland and Siberia. Temperatures in July and August can reach 25°C — 30°C. In the autumn the landscape is beautiful, all in golden colours. This is a good season for berry and mushroom picking. In winter much of the country is usually transformed into a snow-clad paradise. Winter temperatures can reach below -40°C. The weather in spring can be very varied.

4. It is a very big country, so the climate differs: there is a cold arctic climate in the north Siberia and there is a subtropical hot climate near the Black Sea. The climates of both European and Asian parts are continental with warm summers and very cold winters. Summers can be quite hot and humid, even in Siberia. Because of the global warming winters became warmer, there is less snow. In the south of the country there is a subtropical climate.

October comes and Halloween quickly approaches. This holiday is an old Celtic tradition. It is the time when people gather the harvest. Legends say that the worlds of the living and the dead come close during this time. The spirits of the dead, fairies, witches and goblins have a celebration in the night. The children spend time preparing for Halloween. They take pumpkins and carve (вырезают) jack-o-lanterns (фонарики) out of them. They listen to the stories of the mischievous goblin that sneaks into homes and puts salt in the sugar bowls, opens all the windows and hides everyone’s clothes. The children learn that people use the jack-o-lanterns to scare off the mischievous goblins; they place them at the doorsteps and in the windows! On the day of the festival, classrooms in England are magically transformed and there are a lot of jack-o-lanterns. The children are surprised to find a witch at school. The witch tells them stories.

My Holidays

After each term at school we have holidays. It’s fun to have holidays, you can do whatever you like, you don’t have to get up too early, do your homework or think of troubles at school. Most of all I like summer holidays, they are the longest ones, though, when winter is snowy and frosty, I enjoy my winter holidays. I like skating and skiing, sledging and making a snowman or having a fight with snowballs.

Last summer we went to Sochi. First, we travelled to Odessa by plane and from there we got to Sochi by boat. We stayed in Odessa for three days. Our relatives live there and we stayed with them. We had an excellent opportunity to go round the city, to see beautiful monuments to famous people, museums and the Odessa Opera House.

We enjoyed our trip from Odessa to Sochi. The Black Sea was calm. We sat on deck looking at the sea. I liked Sochi very much. We went boating and swimming, lay in the sun on the beach. In the evenings we went for a walk or dropped in at a cafe to have ice cream or juice. My father showed us the famous Botanic Gardens, we went hiking in the mountains, and we saw the magnificent Augura Waterfalls.

Its name comes from the bell’s commissioner of works, Sir Benjamin Hall, or Ben. The tower is 98 metres high. The bell inside the tower is 14 tons. The clock on the tower is also huge.

Тест по чтению для 5 класса по теме School

Предлагаю Вам тест по чтению для 5 класса. Тест посвящен теме школа. Выполнение теста предусматривает несколько этапов.

• Первый этап: знакомство с лексикой.
• Второй этап: чтение текста 2 раза. Ребята читают текст, сдают его учителю, после чего получают задания.
• Третий этап: выполнение заданий. Задания выполняются без наличия текста перед глазами, так как в 5 классе ребята уже должны читать и понимать простые тексты, иначе они найдут похожие предложения и просто спишут ответы, не вникая в суть текста.

Данный текст можно использовать и для 4 класса, но тогда задания выполняются при наличии текста перед глазами.

I Like Learning at School.

A Week at Wendle School

We arrive at school every morning before 9 o’clock. We bring our homework with us and give it to the teacher. When we are late, there’s trouble! On Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays our first lesson is Maths. We have Maths after break on Fridays, too. We learn Geometry, Algebra and Arithmetic. Our teacher is Mr. Stern. We learn French at 10 o’clock on Tuesdays and at 2 o’clock in the afternoon on Wednesdays and Fridays. We learn grammar in class. We try to speak French in the language laboratory. It’s fun — but we can’t say much! Geography lessons are on Mondays and Thursdays at 11.10. We’re learning about Japan. It’s interesting. But we’d like to go to Japan! Every day at 12 o’clock, we have games or gymnastics. When it rains, we do gym indoors. When the weather is good, we play football or netball outside. After that, it’s dinner time. We’re always hungry! After dinner, three times a week, we do cookery or woodwork. Most of the boys do woodwork and some of the girls do, too. But some of the boys do cookery. It’s nice for their mothers! Everybody does art at 2.40 on Fridays. We paint and draw and some people learn pottery, too. We do art for one hour and twenty minutes. School finishes at 4 o’clock.
