But I didn’t do my homework. I played my favourite computer game, you know, it was so amazing!

Brett: Oh, I see! That’s really bad! You are really wasting your time playing computer games. I think you should tell your mum the truth and promise that you’ll never lie again.

Alice: Oh, it’s so difficult! But, you are right I must do it.

Brett: Begin with your homework and get a good mark as soon as possible.

Alice: Thank you very much, Brett. You’ve really helped me.


PROGRESS CHECK

Part I. Listening

Задание 1. Послушай четыре рассказа юных путешественников. Установи соответствие между рассказом каждого говорящего и названием его увлечения. В задании дано одно лишнее название. Ты услышишь каждый рассказ дважды. Занеси свои ответы в таблицу.

Speaker 1: People have different hobbies: travelling, sports or computer games. My hobby isn’t very popular among modern teenagers. I like ballet and I want to become a famous ballet dancer. I work hard and I’m sure that when I grow up, I’ll travel all over the world and appear in the best theatres.

Speaker 2: Not long ago, most people spent their holidays in the country or stayed at home. Nowadays, people can go anywhere on the planet. I like exploring new places and meeting new people and my dream is to visit South America. I have read plenty of books about the continent, its history and its modern life.

Speaker 3: I have an unusual hobby — Chinese. You are surprised, aren’t you? My granddad spent 10 years in China; he’s a doctor. He told me a lot about the country and its traditions and culture, but to speak Chinese I have to work hard. Next year, I’m going to travel to China and I hope I’ll be able to speak Chinese then.

Speaker 4: Some of my friends say that they like sport, but in reality, they miss PE lessons and spend weekends watching TV. I don’t think it’s healthy to do that. I am going to be a pilot because I’d like to see different countries and you have to be very fit to be a pilot, so I play football and basketball. I also go swimming three times a week.


Задание 2. Послушай разговор Эндрю и Джессики. Отметь картинки, которые соответствуют рассказу Джессики. Ты услышишь разговор дважды.

Andrew: Hi, Jessica! I am pleased to see you again! You spent your holidays in Britain, didn’t you?

Jessica: Hello, Andrew! Yes, I did. But I didn’t only travel in Britain, but also in Northern Ireland. So, it was a big trip round the United Kingdom.

Andrew: That sounds great. Where did you go first?

Jessica: We spent a week in Wales.

Andrew: What did you like most of all in Wales? The fields of daffodils? The famous Mount Snowdon?

Jessica: No, I went in September and you can only see daffodils in the spring. Snowdon is a great mountain, of course, but I like waterfalls. There were plenty of lovely waterfalls. Believe me, they’re worth seeing!

Andrew: Where did you go then?

Jessica: To the north, to Scotland. We spent a week there, too.

Andrew: What did you do there?

Jessica: We took part in a cycling trip round the Lowlands.

Andrew: Wow! Did you stay in tents and make fires to get warm at night? Or did you spend nights in old castles with ghosts?

Jessica: Oh, no. No tents, no fires, no ghosts. We stayed in small hotels each night and after Scotland, we went to Northern Ireland. It’s a nice place to spend a holiday. Especially for people who are fond of gardening.

Andrew: Really? Why?

Jessica: The winter is warm and the summer is sunny. Perfect weather for plants, isn’t it?

Andrew: And then you went to England, didn’t you?

Jessica: You’re right. We went to London, Cambridge and Stratford-Upon-Avon. We visited lots of museums and enjoyed walking in the royal parks.

Andrew: And what did you do in the evenings? Watch TV? Play computer games?

Jessica: No, my new friends taught me how to play different board games and we played Scrabble and Monopoly.

Andrew: I enjoy playing these games too. Come to my place tomorrow. We’ll have a game night.

Jessica: Sure, sounds fun.
