About Myself and My Family
Before I start talking about my family let me introduce myself. I am Sveta Petrenko. I am 17. I left school in June. I was born in Kyiv, and I have been living in Kyiv since my childhood.
And now I am going to tell you about my family. We are a family of five. We think we are a large and friendly family. So we are happy to be living together and are getting on all right.
To begin with, I am going to talk about my father. His name is Serhiy, he is 45. He works as a surgeon at a hospital. He is neither old, nor young. He is a good-looking man, handsome, rather thin with dark brown hair just beginning to go grey. He is a very sociable person. What I don't like about my dad is that he is always busy. Very often he works overtime. He is a breadwinner in our family. He is fond of going to the country at weekends, because he enjoys working in the garden.
My mother's name is Halyna. She is three years younger than my father. She works as a teacher at a nursery school. My mother is rather slim and pretty, she is always elegant and smart. In short, she is a pleasant-looking woman of about 40. She always has a lot of work to do both at school and about the house. She is fond of her work and spends a lot of time there. But she has to cook the food for the whole family at home. Shopping and cooking is nearly half a day's work for her. But my granny and I are in the habit of helping her about the house.
Boris is my elder brother. He is six years senior to me. So he is 23 already. He has graduated from university and he is an economist by profession now. Boris is married. His wife is a journalist. They have got a child, my nephew. He is a lovely little boy of two with golden hair and dark brown eyes and a spirit that is always bright and happy, full of joy and gaiety.
And finally a few words about my granny. To tell you the truth, she is my best friend. She always listens to my endless stories about my friends and my school life. She is retired now but in her youth and her older age she worked as a teacher in school. I must admit, she is a very understanding person.
To put it into a few words, we are a united and friendly family.

We don’t sound rich enough. You know what I mean. There’s too much beat and not enough tune. You can’t play the guitar, can you, Jane? Jane: No I can’t.

Граматичний матеріал: Іменник. Однина і множина іменника.
These words are plural, so they take a plural verb:
• My trousers are too long. (not my trousers is)
You can also use a pair of + these words:
• Those are nice jeans. orThat's a nice pair of jeans.(not a nice jeans)
• I need some new glasses. or I need a new pair of glasses.
Some nouns end in -ics, but are not usually plural.For example:
athletics economics electronics gymnastics maths(= mathematics) physics politics
• Gymnastics is my favourite sport. (not Gymnastics are)
News is not plural:
• What time is the news on television? (not are the news)
Some words ending in -s can be singular or plural. For example:
series a television series two television series
species a species of bird 200 species of bird
Some singular nouns are often used with a plural verb. For example:
audience committee company family firm government staff team
These nouns are all groups of people. We often think of them as a number of people (= they), not as one thing (= it). So we often use a plural verb:
• The government (= they) want to increase taxes.
• The staff at the school (= they) are not happy with their new working conditions.
In the same way, we often use a plural verb after the name of a sports team or a company:
• Italy are playing Brazil next week • Shell have increased the price of petrol.
A singular verb (The government wants ... / Shell has ... etc.)is also possible.
We use a plural verb with police:
• The police are investigating the murder, but haven't arrested anyone yet. (not The police is ... hasn't)
Note that we say a police officer / a policeman / a policewoman (not a police).
We do not often use the plural of person ('persons'). We normally use people (a plural word):
• He's a nice person. but They are nice people. (not nice persons)
• Many people don't have enough to eat. (not Many people doesn't)
We think of a sum of money, a period of time, a distance etc. as one thing. So we use a singular verb:
• Twenty thousand pounds(= it) was stolen in the robbery. (not were stolen)
• Three years(= it) is a long time to be without a job. (not Three years are)
• Six miles is a long way to walk every day.
Ex. 1. In each example the words on the left are connected with an activity (for example, a sport or an academic subject). Write the name of the activity. The beginning of the word is given.
| 1. calculate algebra equation 2. government election minister 3. finance trade employment 4. running jumping throwing 5. light heat gravity 6. exercises somersault parallel bars 7. computer silicon chip video games | mathematics p________________ e________________ a________________ ph_______________ gy_______________ el________________________ |
Ex. 2. Most of these sentences are wrong. Correct them where necessary.
| 1. Three years are a long time to be without a job. 2. The government want to increase taxes. 3. Susan was wearing a black jeans. 4. Brazil are playing Italy in a football match next week. 5. I like Martin and Jane. They're very nice persons. 6. I need more than ten pounds. Ten pounds aren't enough. 7. I'm going to buy a new pyjama. 8. The committee haven't made a decision yet. 9. There was a police directing traffic in the street. 10. What is the police going to do? 11. This scissors isn't very sharp. | Three years is a long time.

Kherson
Kherson is the southern Ukrainian city. Kherson is the region capital, a large sea and river port and railway junction. It is situated in the steppe of the Black Sea Lowland on both banks of the Dnieper River directly north of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. If you want to go to the Black Sea it will take you 1.5 hours by car or 2 hours by bus. The city was founded by Prince Potemkin on June 29, 1778, on former fortification Oleksandrivskyi Shanets ruined by the Turks. It was named in honor of Chersoneses of Taurus founded by Greeks in the 5th century B.C. The first mention of Kherson in the chronicles occurred in 1737.Admiral Ushakov and his soldiers built many ships here in the 18th century and fought with Turkish army. Russian army won. In 1803 the town became the center of Kherson Province. In 1944 the city became the capital of Kherson region. Among the city's architectural monuments are the remnants of the fortress walls and gates, the Black Sea Hospital, the naval arsenal (18th century), and the Cathedral of the Transfiguration (1781), the Greek-Sophia Church (1780), the Gates of the fortress (18th century), the Holy Spirit Church with a Bell Tower (1836). The climate here is dry. Winters are cold and summers are hot, and the winds often blow. In summer many people go to the river bank or to the Black Sea, and there are many fruit and vegetables: apples, cherries, strawberries, peaches, grapes, tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, etc. Population of Kherson is nearly 360, 000 people. And they work on the city's enterprises. Ocean tankers, freighters, agricultural machinery, electric machines, glass products are produced there. There is an oil-refining plant, fat-processing plant, and many wine-making factories. Highways, air and railway lines connect the city with all other cities of Ukraine and Russia. Today it is a large sea- and river-port. There are two bridges over the Dnieper which joins Kherson and a smaller town Tsurupinsk. There are wonderful views of the river and the countryside. There is fresh air and good climate, so many tourists visit Kherson in summer. Kherson is over 200 years old.
It is a large educational center. It has 4 higher educational institutions, 14 technical secondary schools and several research institutes. The total area of Kherson is more than 200 km; the most part of it is covered with parks and public gardens. There are two arboreta and the Botanical Gardens. 10 years ago the main branches of industry here were ship-building, textile and building of agricultural machines. But there is an economic crisis in Ukraine nowadays, so many factories closed down, Nowadays the main branches of industry are ship-building and mined food factories, but there is not enough work for all people. Those who work don't earn much. There are many good colleges and universities such as the Teachers' Training University, the Industrial University, the Shipbuilding University and the Agricultural University. There is a good drama theatre and a puppet-show. If you like palming you can listen to the philharmonic orchestra; can go to the Art Museum. There are good pictures of the painters of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. There are also many bars, cinemas, clubs, gyms and a swimming-pool. People sometime call Kherson a green city because there are many parks. The Kherson Region includes 18 districts, 9 towns, 30 settles, 677 villages.

Music in Our Life
Can you think of a day without music? There is music everywhere: home, in a concert hall, in parks, at the seaside and even in the forest. People cannot live without music. They listen to music, they dance to music, and they learn to play musical instruments. But what is music? Specialists explain it very well. Music isn't combination of pleasant sounds only. It is an art, which reflects life. Music reflects people's ideas and emotions. Music is also a weapon. It fights for light against darkness, for freedom against tyranny, for humanism against barbarity ("Seventh symphony" by Shostakovich, "Sixth symphony" by Tchaikovsky and so on). When speaking of different forms of music I'd like to mention first and foremost classical music. I prefer different musical genres: symphony, concerto, chamber music, vocal music, opera, and ballet. Classical music gives me delight, pleasure, partly sensual, partly intellectual. Classical music is always a complex of emotions, excitement and at the same time, love for others and a desire to do something for them. When listening to classical music I have to combine all my feelings into one and to give it name it will be happiness. Classical music contains the powerful appeal for listeners. It addresses both our senses and intellect. We are lucky to have such a famous orchestra, which executes music by Beethoven and Mozart, Britten and Gershwin. It is famous all over the world of its original interpretations of classical music. As for me I prefer such musical pieces which are based on the theme of straggle of good against evil. Also I like quiet lyrical piano pieces by Chopin and Prokofiev which are full of enchanting melodies.

Look at these examples:

Quickly and seriously are adverbs. Many adverbs are formed from an adjective + -ly:

Not all words ending in -ly are adverbs. Some adjectives end in -ly too, for example:

reasonablycheap (adverb + adjective)
terribly sorry (adverb + adjective)

Bologna process
The purpose of the Bologna process(or Bologna accords) is to create the European higher education area by making academic degree standards and quality assurance standards more comparable and compatible throughout Europe. It is named after the place it was proposed, the University of Bologna with the signing, in 1999, of the Bologna declaration by ministers of education from 29 European countries in the Italian city of Bologna. This was opened up to other countries signatory to the European Cultural Convention of the Council of Europe, and further governmental meetings have been held in Prague (2001), Berlin (2003), Bergen (2005) and London in spring 2007.
Before the signing of the Bologna declaration, the Magna Carta Universitatumhad been issued at a meeting of university rectors celebrating the 900th anniversary of the University of Bologna - and thus of European universities - in 1988. One year before the Bologna declaration, education ministers from France, Germany, Italy and the UK signed the Sorbonne declaration in Paris 1998, committing them to "harmonizing the architecture of the European Higher Education system". French officials in particular therefore often refer to the La Sorbonne/Bologna process.
The Council of Europe and UNESCO have jointly issued the Lisbon recognition convention on recognition of academic qualifications as part of the process, which has been ratified by the majority of the countries party to the Bologna process.
Ex. 1. Answer the following questions.
1. What is the Bologna process?
2. Why is it called “Bologna process”?
3. What was the year before the Bologna declaration?
