University Accommodation
From: Sarah Walsh, Resident
Subject: Making the flats safer and more
pleasant
Date: 14th January
Introduction
The aim of this report is to suggest ways to
make the university accommodation a safer
and more pleasant place to live.
Security
To begin with, security doors with intercoms
and burglar alarms could be installed. Also,
security lights could be fitted for the car
park. By doing this, the outside area of the
flats would be much safer.
Facilities
Firstly, new furniture would make the
communal areas more welcoming. In this
way, students would spend more time
together. In addition, the exterior of the
building should be repainted, making it a
much more attractive building.
General Environment
In the first place, the path outside the
front door needs to be repaved. Also,
flowers and trees should be planted. If this
is done, visitors will be more impressed by
the general area.
Conclusion
If these recommendations are implemented,
I strongly believe that the university
accommodation will be a better environment
for all the students who live there.

New technologies are developing at high speed these days, and their development is unstoppable. One of the most influential technologies is the Internet penetrating into every aspect of people’s life and endangering their real-life social skills.
In my opinion, people really lose their real-life social abilities because of massive use of the Internet services. The evidence is everywhere. Firstly, when visiting a cafe or another public place, you can see a group of young people sitting together and staring into their smartphones. Instead of looking at each other and communicating, they are pushing the buttons and texting. The teenagers feel more comfortable to talk through social nets than in reality. Secondly, more people get their education online using special services. I consider it to be bad because immediate contact with your groupmates and teachers are lost in this case. To study and grow personally, it is important not only to get bare knowledge, but also to have close contacts to its bearers.
But there are people who believe that virtual Internet communication does not break any real-life social skills. They see the Internet as a copy of the reality. So, the virtual world is as rich in social interaction as the real one. People do not lose their skills, but they transfer them onto a new ground.
Nethertheless, I cannot agree with the foregoing statement, because there is no true transfer of skills. The virtual world has its own rules of communication and real-life social skills are not applicable here. They are put aside and, in the end, completely lost.
To sum it up, I want to emphasize the necessity of finding a balance between virtuality and reality, otherwise shifting to the virtual scene will inflict serious damage on people’s social life.

How to improve person’s life? Prepared by: Anysheva Dinara English teacher: Balgaliyeva A.M.
Hi, let me introduce myself..My name is Dinara. I’m a pupil of the 11th form. And I want to say that I’m a happy person and I wish other people will be happy too. I’ve chosen this theme for my presentation because nowadays there are so many people who are angry, unhappy and dissatisfied with their lives.
In my opinion, the life is given to us by the God, so we should love, respect, save and value it and accept the life as the present from the God.
I have found in the Internet so many good, right words about our wonderful life and I want to share with you.
So, I know I’m else so young girl and I mustn’t give the advices to other people how to live but I’m sure a lot of people share their opinions with me and they will agree with my advices how to improve person’s life.
So, we people, first of all should be positive in everything and even in the negative things find positive moments. Nowadays a lot of people complain about their lives, tell about their problems. But my grandma says to me that sometimes the problems are given for us to do us stronger and cleverer. I’ll never forget her words: “Never complain about your life saying it is bad because there are so many families that live worse than you. For example, in Africa many children can’t write and read because there are no schools there but you sometimes don’t want to go to school.. Even invalids, who haven’t hands or legs, are happy and love their lives. So, value it and be happy to have everything what you have today!”
Secondly, eating a tasty and healthy food is one of my main advices. My grandparents say that life today isn’t like it was before. People ate foods that were very good for their health, but these days everyone is busy and doesn’t want to cook his own food or people don’t want to spend a lot of time cooking. Therefore, people eat foods that contain little or no vitamins and minerals.
Furthermore, in order to improve our life we must to refuse from a bad habits such as smoking, drinking, eating fast food, even interrupting other people, quarrelling, nail biting and so on. For solving this problems we should develop a big will power, intention and high motivation.
Thirdly, sport is an important part of our life. It makes people more happy, healthy, keeps them feet and organized. We should walk more on foot breathing a fresh air, do morning exercises and sleep 7 or 8 hours at night. That’s why, Physical culture is one of my favourite subjects at school.
The next advice for improving person’s life is the self-education. To my mind, every person should learn something new every day for himself, should read more psychological books of outstanding and greatest people who reached a big aims in their lives.
Travelling abroad to different countries, visiting interesting famous places, meeting with a new people are also one of the ways of self-development. If some of you don’t have opportunities and can’t allow expensive trips themselves, you can just visit theatres, concerts, galleries, go to the cinemas and visit different entertainment centers.
But, unfortunately, even for these activities people say that have many reasons for not doing them: they don’t have much money or never can’t find time. I think if a man has a big will he can make his life better himself. As for me, I prefer colorful and exciting life to boring daily routines, negative thoughts and pessimistic mood.
Finally, my last advice to improve person’s life is to be KIND..kind to the family, to the friends, to the relatives, to an every day, to the nature, to the world.. Being kind allows us to love everything around, to communicate better, to respect other people, to be a positive force in people’s lives. We shouldn’t be kind for the sake of getting what we want, we should learn kindness from others, be optimistic, be a good listener, be friendly, polite, grateful, more smile, take an interest in people, love animals and the living world..
So, I think, we shouldn’t waste the time being angry with our relatives, parents, friends and so on. Life is one and short. My granny teaches me to be kind and says that nowadays there are so many people who don’t have “clean hearts and souls” and they do our world “dirty”, but we, kind people, should do everything what depends from us to bring the love and the light to this wonderful world.
I hope that all my advices will help you to improve your life, at least a little… Thank you for your attention! Have a nice day!
Virtual Internet communication results in losing real-life social skills
Internet today has become so much popular, that every pupil knows how to use it. We can order food, buy and sell clothes, transfer money, find the direction and many other things. People can even work in internet staying at home and get good money. And of course we can find friends here and communicate with them any moment.
Unfortunately the more time we stay online the less we use our social skills in real life. Instead of going out together with our friends and enjoy a real talk, we choose communication online. We can not see the face of our companion, we use virtual smiles instead of a real smile. Virtual communication is very limited, there is no soul here, I would say.
From other side, people can talk online when they can not talk face to face. Any time, from any country I can call my friends or family. We can still share any information, support each other, make video calls and send the pictures. The world is developing today and we have to follow. It’s also a good possibility to save time. If you need to send some message it’s easier to do with internet and virtual communication.
Well I definitely choose communication alive, to see the eyes of my friends, to joke with them, to see their emotions and mood at this very moment. It’s also better to understand each other, because a person is in front of you and you can see if he is happy, sad, busy or boring. I hope in future internet will not take all our life under control and we will still be able to spend time together. People always need support and it’s very important not only see this support in messages, but also to feel in reality.
Виртуальное интернет-общение приводит к потере реальных социальных навыков
Сегодня интернет стал очень популярным и буквально каждый учащийся знает, как им пользоваться. Мы можем заказать еду домой, купить или продать одежду, перевести деньги с карты на карту, найти любой адрес и много чего ещё. Люди даже работают в интернете не выходя из дома и получают хорошие деньги за это. И конечно, мы можем найти друзей через интернет и общаться с ними в любое удобное для нас время.
К сожалению, чем больше времени мы проводим онлайн, тем меньше пользуемся своими навыками общения в реальной жизни. Вместо того, чтобы выйти на прогулку вместе с друзьями и получить удовольствие от реального общения, мы выбираем разговор через интернет. Мы не видим лицо нашего собеседника, мы пользуемся виртуальными смайлами вместо реальной улыбки. Виртуальное общение вгоняется нас в определенные рамки, здесь не чувствуется души чтоли, я бы так сказала.

The aim of this report is to suggest ways of improving the flats, in a house I stay during my studying, in order to encourage more young people to live there.
Every year for about 5000 new students came studding in our university. Therefore, it would be appropriate to make repairs, namely that attracts a large number of applicants to enter to it in our university.
Some of the furniture should also be improved. Firstly, I would strongly recommend changing beds in our rooms, owing to that more students will attracts more friends to live there .Secondly, more modern appliances, such as a washing machine and a cooker will relieve students, who do not have to go to the laundry room and wait for their turn to cook food. Lastly, it would be a good idea to build a sport ground near our house; this will attracts to become a lover of healthy lifestyle.
Unfortunately, our courtyard is narrow, full of litter and old-broken cars. Therefore, the cars should be towed away, the litter will be collected. Another suggestion would be to put asphalt on road, consequently students do not have to circumvent, go around the mud and puddles.
All in all, I strongly believe that new improvement would encourage people to live there. These changes would definitely made flats more comfortable and spacious.
Целью данного доклада является предложение путей совершенствования квартиры, в доме в котором я живу в период моего обучения в университете, для того, чтобы подвигнуть молодежь жить здесь.
Каждый год около 5000 новых студентов приходят учиться в наш университет. Поэтому, было бы целесообразно, сделать ремонт, а именно привлечёт большое количество претендентов, для получения квартиры в нашем университете.
Некоторая мебель также должна быть улучшена. Во-первых, я бы настоятельно рекомендую заменить кровати в наших комнатах, благодаря этому, больше студентов привлекут друзей жить здесь. Во-вторых, более современные электроприборы, такие как стиральная машина и газовая плита избавят студентов от необходимости ходить в прачечную и ждать своей очереди, чтобы приготовить пищу. И наконец, было бы хорошей идеей, построить спортивную площадку возле нашего дома; это привлечёт студентов стать любителями здорового образа жизни.
К сожалению, наш двор узкий, полный мусора и старых, разбитых автомобилей. Таким образом, автомобили должны быть отбуксированы, мусор должен быть собран. Еще одно предложение было бы положить асфальт на дороге, поэтому студентам не пришлось бы обходить) грязь и лужи.
В конечном счете, я твердо убежден, что новое улучшение будет привлекать людей жить здесь. Эти изменения, безусловно, сделали бы квартиры ещё удобнее и просторнее.
The aim of this report is to suggest ways of improving the community centre, in order to encourage more young people to go and do classes in this centre.
There is a several shortage of modern classes you can do, for instance you will have fun visiting volleyball course or can test your knowledge in special quiz, nevertheless, in my opinion, and this is not enough for so large centre.
Some of the changes should also be done. Firstly, as I said, it would be a good idea to open some new courses, which are popular with young people, such as basketball, dancing and football. Secondly, visitors need more rest rooms with showers, in which people can take a shower after training. Lastly, I would strongly recommend refreshing your advert, as community centre will offer new activities and provide fresh information about events in the area, which people can see and became wanted to visit.
Unfortunately, some facilities need to be replaced. In particular, there is a lot of graffiti on clothes cupboards, dirty floors on gyms. The cupboard should be changed, floors swept .Another suggestion would be to make a discount card, especially for students, owing to the discount more visitors would join in your centre.
All in all, I feel that new courses, rest rooms would make the centre more popular with young people. That would definitely make the centre more pleasant for people of all ages.
Целью данного отчета является предложение путей улучшения общественного центра, с тем чтобы стимулировать молодых людей приходить и заниматься в этом центре.
Существует острая нехватка современных классов, которые вы можете сделать, например, вы будете получать удовольствие от посещения занятий по волейболу или можете проверить свои знания в специальной викторине, тем не менее, на мой взгляд,) этого недостаточно для столь большого центра.
Некоторые новшества также должны быть внесены. Во-первых, как я уже сказал, было бы хорошей идеей, открыть новые курсы, которые пользуются популярностью у молодых людей, таких как баскетбол, танцы и футбол. Во-вторых, посетителям нужно больше комнат отдыха с душевыми кабинками, в которых люди смогут принять душ после тренировок. И, наконец, я бы настоятельно рекомендовал обновить ваше рекламное объявление, так как общественный центр будет предлагать новые виды деятельности и требуется предоставлять свежую информацию о событиях, которых люди могут видеть и захотеть посетить.
К сожалению, некоторые объекты должны быть заменены. В частности, граффити, нарисованные) на шкафах для одежды, грязные полы на спортивных залах. Шкаф должен быть заменен, полы вымыты. Ещё одно) предложение — сделать дисконтную карту, особенно для студентов, благодаря скидке больше посетителей смогут заниматься в вашем центре.
В конечном счете, я считаю, что новые курсы, комнаты отдыха сделают центр популярным среди молодых людей. Это, безусловно, сделало бы центр приятным для посещения людей всех возрастов.

From: Samantha Murray
To: Ron Taylor, Mayor of
Newtown
Subject: Suggested improvements to the area
Date: 22nd October
1
The aim of this report is to suggest ways of improving the Newtown area in order to encourage more young people to live there.
2
There is a severe shortage of modem, comfortable housing in the area. Therefore, it would be appropriate to build some new apartment blocks to cater for young professionals and maybe a new housing estate for families. Space for this housing could be found by demolishing existing run-down buildings.
3
Some of the facilities in the area should also be improved. Firstly, I would strongly suggest that the council spend more money on the public transport network, so that people can commute easily to work. Secondly, more public facilities are needed, in particular a well-stocked library and a community centre offering activities and providing information about events in the area. In addition, some of the funding could also be used to create new playgrounds for children. Doing this would help to attract families to the area.
4
Unfortunately, our area has become quite run-down in recent years. In particular, there is a lot of graffiti on the walls and the streets are full of old broken-down cars and litter. The cars should be towed away, the walls repainted and the litter collected. Another suggestion would be for trees and flowers to be planted along the footpaths in order to make the streets more attractive.
5
All in all, I feel that new housing, better public transport, more public facilities, new parks and a cleaner environment would make good use of the government funding. They would definitely make living in Newtown more attractive to young professionals and families.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing this letter to express my dissatisfaction with the Economics course which I recently joined at St. Jude College. I joined this course with great interest and expectation, but it’s not engaging me since the classes are irregular.
I compared offerings from many other colleges, and finally, I decided to pursue the Economics course in your institute. Even though this college is far away from my home, I choose this college as I got the scholarship.
I travel a long distance to attend the classes. But it’s not conducted regularly. Either they are postponed or canceled for some reason.
I have few suggestions to improve the situation. Consider announcing the change in schedule to students beforehand. Also, for the classes canceled, provide compensation classes during the same week. Otherwise, the staff tends to rush on the topic to complete it few days before exams, from students perspective it is quite hard to prepare for the exam.
I hope you agree with my suggestion and consider taking the necessary action to improve the situation.
Yours faithfully,
Nakshatra

Здравствуйте, уважаемые читатели!
В этой статье предлагаю еще раз внимательно ознакомиться с типами заданий устной части ЕГЭ 2022 по английскому языку, так как в этом году формат заданий устной части существенно изменился. Экзамен по устной части проходит в отдельно отведенный для этого день, как правило, после письменной части.
Инструкция по выполнению заданий
Устная часть КИМ ЕГЭ по английскому языку включает в себя 4 задания.
Задание 1 – чтение вслух небольшого текста научно-популярного характера. Время на подготовку – 1,5 минуты. Максимальное количество баллов — 1.
В задании 2 предлагается ознакомиться с рекламным объявлением и задать четыре вопроса на основе ключевых слов. Время на подготовку – 1,5 минуты. Максимальное количество баллов — 4.
В задании 3 предлагается дать интервью на актуальную тему, развёрнуто ответив на пять вопросов. Максимальное количество баллов — 5.
В задании 4 предлагается проблемная тема для проектной работы и 2 фотографии, выбор которых в качестве иллюстраций надо обосновать, и нужно выразить своё мнение по проблеме проектной работы. Время на подготовку — 2,5 минуты. Максимальное количество баллов — 10.
Общее максимальное количество баллов по устной части — 20 баллов.
Общее время ответа одного экзаменуемого (включая время на подготовку) – 17 минут.
Каждое последующее задание выдаётся после окончания выполнения предыдущего задания. Всё время ответа ведётся аудио- и видеозапись.
К моему большому сожалению (но, думаю, не только я одна удручена таким состоянием дел!) наши уважаемые сотрудники ФИПИ не позаботились о том, чтобы разместить в открытый доступ как можно больше тренировочных вариантов для учащихся и учителей, которые готовят студентов к сдаче такого важного в их жизни испытания. Но зато очень быстро было издано пособие под редакцией М.В. Вербицкой (с явно коммерческими целями обогащения за счет бедных учеников и учителей! Ай-ай-ай, как не стыдно!!! 😡) «ЕГЭ Английский язык Типовые экзаменационные варианты Новая модель КИМ ЕГЭ 20 вариантов». Ну, что ж, будем разбирать сегодня один из вариантов этого пособия.
Сразу хочу обратить ваше внимание, что в данной статье будут представлены примерные образцы выполнения заданий 1 — 4 устной части ЕГЭ 2022, поэтому Вы можете их усовершенствовать (упростить или усилить) согласно своим предпочтениям.
Предупреждение! Во время подготовки к сдаче экзамена по устной части у учащихся не будет возможности делать какие-либо записи своих ответов на черновик! Тестируется навык спонтанной речи.
Итак, ВАРИАНТ 9 (по материалам сборника М.В. Вербицкой)
Task 1. Imagine that you are preparing a project with your friend. You have found some interesting material for the presentation and you want to read this text to your friend. You have 1.5 minutes to read the text silently, then be ready to read it out aloud. You will not have more than 1.5 minutes to read it.
Canada’s original inhabitants are Indians. The very name Canada comes from a word meaning “village” in one of the local languages of Indian tribes. These tribes lived on the territory of modern Canada before the first Europeans arrived in the 11th century. They soon left, but more Europeans came in the 16th century and were made welcome because they brought manufactured goods and traded them for furs and other native products. However, the Europeans settled down and gradually displaced Indians over the next 250 years. European settlers came in a series of waves. First were the French, followed by the English, and these two groups are considered the founding nations. France lost its part of the territory to Britain in a war in 1760, but most of the French-speaking colonists remained. Their effort to preserve their language and culture is still an issue of Canadian history and has led in recent years to a movement to become independent from the rest of Canada.
Useful vocabulary:
- Canada /ˈkænədə/ / Canadian /kəˈneɪdiən/ – Канада / канадский
- Europe /ˈjʊərəp/ / European /ˌjʊərəˈpiːən/ – Европа / европейский
- France /frɑːns/ / French /frentʃ/ – Франция / французский
- inhabitant /ɪnˈhæbɪtənt/ – житель
- language /ˈlæŋɡwɪdʒ/ – язык
- tribe /traɪb/ – племя
- century /ˈsenʃəri/ – век
- manufactured /ˌmænjəˈfæktʃəd/– произведенный
- fur /fɜː/– мех, шкура животного
- product /ˈprɒdʌkt/ – продукт
- to arrive /əˈraɪv/ – приезжать, прибывать, приходить
- to preserve /prɪˈzɜːv/ – сохранять
- to remain /rɪˈmeɪn/ – оставаться
- gradually /ˈɡrædʒuəli/ – постепенно
Keep in mind the rules of -ed reading:
- arrived, settled, followed, remained, considered → [d]
- displaced → [t]
- traded → [id]
Remember the rules of reading numbers:
- 250 – two hundred and fifty
- 1760 – seventeen sixty
- the 11th century – the eleventh century
- the 16th century – the sixteenth century

Interviewer: Hello everybody! It’s Teenagers Round the World Channel. Our guest today is a teenager from Russia and we are going to discuss extracurricular activities at school. We’d like to know our guest’s point of view on this issue. Please answer five questions. So, let’s get started.
Interviwer: What do you usually do after school? Do you attend any clubs?

Model Answer
Interviewer: What do you usually do after school? Do you attend any clubs?
Student: Frankly speaking, I’ve got a very hectic schedule. Every day I have my extra classes in different subjects where I prepare for my final exams. Also, I attend my volleyball / football training on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I joined our local volleyball / football club when I was 11.
Interviewer: What extracurricular activities did you do when you were at primary school?
Student: Well, as far as I remember we had some school sports clubs, dancing and singing clubs and a computer club. Personally, I was fond of working on a computer. Especially it was interesting to create 3D pictures in Paint. I always did it with pleasure.
Interviewer: What school clubs are the most popular with your friends?
Student: Actually, most of my classmates are members of such sports clubs as volleyball and football clubs, a weightlifting club and a martial art club. Besides, a military club called “BERKUT” is very popular both with boys and girls of my school. I am very proud of my friends as they have become winners of different sports contests many times.
Interviewer: In what ways do sports clubs benefit teenagers?
Student: In my opinion, doing sports is absolutely beneficial especially when teenagers join a sports club! First of all, at sports clubs training is conducted according to the timetable and under the supervision of a coach. I this way teenagers stay more organized, become more responsible and can avoid serious injuries. More than that, if teens play a team sport, they can develop such important skills as leadership, collaboration and problem-solving.
Interviewer: Should school clubs be run by students? Why or why not?
Student: Well, I believe it’s a great idea and I would support it. I think that high school students should run school clubs as they have enough knowledge to share with others. For example, teens can run a drawing, cooking, photography or language club for their peers or young learners. This will help them to make the right career choice, raise their self-esteem and develop independence, critical thinking and creativity.
Interviewer: Thank you very much for your interview.

Model Answer
Hi Emma! It’s Helen calling. How are you doing? I’ve got great news for you! Yesterday I found two pictures for our project “A job for life” and I’d like to discuss them with you.
In the first picture there is a doctor who is examining a baby at a health care center. The baby is sitting on his mum’s lap.They all look happy. The second photo shows us a musician who is playing the keyboard at home. He might be creating a new song. I think, both pictures are suitable for our project as they illustrate two kinds of job which are frequently chosen by people to earn their living.
The main distinction between these two pictures is that they illustrate various jobs which play their own beneficial roles in the society. For example, doctors are problem solvers helping people to take care of their health and saving their lives while musicians are entertainers who bring positive emotions and uplift their listeners. I think it’s a good idea to use both pictures in our project as they show two different but very important jobs that people can devote their lives to.
Speaking about these pictures in more detail, I’d like to point out their pros and cons. On the one hand, the profession of a doctor is noble and well-paid. On the other hand, very often doctors have to work overnight and take responsibility for their patients’ lives. As for the musicians, they can make their own schedule of performances and visit a lot of countries and cities giving concerts. But at the same time, travelling non-stop / being constantly on the go can be very tiresome and exhausting.
I’d like to say that the best job which will really make me happy during my whole life is a job of an English teacher. Firstly, English is not only my favourite school subject but it is one of my hobbies. Secondly, I get on well with children and like to help my classmates with English when they have any issues. Besides, perfect knowledge of English is great for travelling.
That’s all I wanted to discuss with you Emma. Just waiting for you to return my call. Bye!
Внимание! В ответе задания 4 устной части обязательно должно быть вступление и заключительная фраза. В случае их отсутствия, количество баллов за это задание будет снижено.
Всем желаю успехов на экзаменах!
Буду рада, если статья оказалась для Вас полезной.
