Вы проводите информационный поиск в ходе выполнения проектной работы. Определите, в каком из текстов A–F содержатся ответы на интересующие Вас вопросы 1–7. Один из вопросов останется без ответа. Занесите Ваши ответы в таблицу.
| 1. | What did prehistoric people’s homes look like? |
| 2. | What places did ancient people choose for their homes? |
| 3. | When did the profession of an architect appear? |
| 4. | What materials do people choose to build their houses? |
| 5. | What are the most exotic houses in the world? |
| 6. | What are the most ambitious architectural projects of our time? |
| 7. | In what houses will people be living in 100 years? |
| A. | As people say, tastes differ! The diversity of weather conditions, traditions and practical needs leads to a great variety of home designs. In Mongolia, people still live in round tents called yurts. In the snowy Arctic, the Inuit have traditionally built igloos from blocks of ice. In some tropical regions, houses are built on stilts above the water. Modern architects promote futuristic designs, such as underwater hotels, and alsocreate eco-friendly treehouses. |
| B. | Thousands of years ago, amazing temples, pyramids, and amphitheatres were built in Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The people who designed them were skilled and smart. They were often priests or high officials. Architecture as a respected profession officially appeared in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, when great masters like Brunelleschi and Michelangelo began to design buildings that combined beauty and function. |
| C. | In comparison to other living beings on the planet, people are obviously the most disadvantaged. Humans have neither warm fur nor sharp claws and they are not able to fly or even run fast enough to escape danger. To survive, people need a warm place to hide in – a home. At the dawn of civilization, caves protected early humans from wild animals, cold, and rain. Later, people began to build huts from branches, grass, bones, and animal skins. |
| D. | The homes of our grandchildren will probably look very different from today’s. With climate change and new technologies, people may build floating cities, underground houses, or even homes in space. The designs may be various, but all houses will likely be smart, where artificial intelligence will save energy and improve comfort. Hopefully, they will also be eco-friendly, using solar panels, wind energy, and sustainable materials. |
| E. | Besides safety and access to water,people have to consider many other factors when building a home. Climate and weather conditions are very important. In cold areas, wood and stone houses have always been much in use. In hot, dry regions, people traditionally build houses from clay, mud bricks, or even sand. Today’s technology widens the choice, and architects often design houses from concrete, steel, and glass. |
| F. | As societies developed, people started to settle in one place. They usually built their homes on fertile land near rivers and lakes because they needed water for drinking and farming. Safety was also very important – the settlers wanted to protect themselves from dangerous animals and aggressive tribes. The location of a home was a matter of survival. That is why many towns and villages were built on hills or surrounded by walls. |

The Isle of Man is located in the Irish Sea.
Прочитайте текст. Определите, какие из приведённых утверждений 13–19 соответствуют содержанию текста (1 – True), какие не соответствуют (2 – False) и о чём в тексте не сказано, то есть на основании текста нельзя дать ни положительного, ни отрицательного ответа (3 – Notstated). Запишите в поле ответа цифру 1, 2 или 3, соответствующую выбранному Вами варианту ответа.
The Isle of Man
In the Irish Sea about 20 miles away from the UK you will find a beautiful island. This is the Isle of Man. The people of the island are called Manx and they speak the Manx language. The island occupies a mid-point in the Irish Sea and the British Isles – right between England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
The scenery of the Isle is varied. There are ranges of hills with green valleys between them. There are sandy beaches in the north which contrast with the rocky cliffs along the coasts. The island's only mountain is slightly over 600 metres high. An old legend says that from its top on clear days you can see six kingdoms: the island itself, Scotland, England, Ireland, Wales and Heaven.
The Isle of Manhas the oldest parliament in the world. It is called Tynwald and it has met regularly since 979. Tynwald usually meets in the capital of the country. However, for one day every summer the Manx parliament gathers in a small village to celebrate Tynwald Day. It is the only day of the year when parliament is held in the open air. On this day government officials read a summary of all the laws that have been passed during the year in both the English and the Manx languages. There is entertainment before and after the ceremony and it is a real community event. In addition to that, an open air market is organised and different concerts are held in the evening. At the conclusion, the Manx national anthem is played and there is a firework display.
Another thing that attracts tourists to the Isle of Man is its rich and unique culture. Any visitor to the island will be particularly fascinated by the legends, folklore and the ancient traditions that are still kept alive today. Most tourists are happy to participate in the folk programmes.
In Manx mythology, the island’s name comes from the name of a Celtic sea god. He ruled the kingdom and protected the land from invaders by covering the island with mist and thick fog.
The island is also reputedly home to fairies who are very special. The Manx fairies are described as small and human-like. They wear red caps and green jackets and are naughty and wicked. There’s even a bridge called Fairy Bridge. Those who cross it are advised to say ‘hello fairies’ in order to get good fortune. If the person doesn’t greet the fairies, the fairies will become angry with him and may play a nasty trick on him.
If you love reading about King Arthur and his knights, then a must-see place is Peel Castle. It was constructed in the 11th century by the Vikings and has a fascinating history. It is believed that Peel Castle was the location of Avalon – the legendary island where King Arthur’s sword was made and where King Arthur was taken after being wounded.

If you love reading about King Arthur and his knights, then a must-see place is Peel Castle. It was constructed in the 11th century by the Vikings and has a fascinating history. It is believed that Peel Castle was the location of Avalon – the legendary island where King Arthur’s sword was made and where King Arthur was taken after being wounded.

Hi Lily,
Thanks a lot for your email! I'd love to see the photos from your holiday, rainy days are definitely much better with such good memories.
I spent my last summer holidays at my grandparents' house in the countryside, near a big beautiful lake. During my holidays I went swimming, rode a bike, picked berries in the forest and read a lot of books outdoors. I like the summer holidays most of all, because they are the longest and I can relax without any homework at all.
By the way, what do the photos from your holiday show?
Best wishes,
Dasha

Task 1. You are going to read the text aloud. You have 1.5 minutes to read the text silently, and then be ready to read it aloud. Remember that you will not have more than 2 minutes for reading aloud.
In 1642 a French student invented the first mechanical calculator. He was only 18 and the counting machine was a present for his father. The father worked as a tax collector and the young man wanted to make his job easier.
The talented inventor made several machines, but nobody was interested. The young man was ahead of his time. Many years passed before people realized how useful these machines could be and started mass producing them.
Today most mechanical calculators have been replaced with electronic models. These small devices can perform a lot of mathematical operations. You just need to enter the numbers by pressing the keys and you’ll see the final result on the screen in no time.

The father worked as a tax collector and the young man wanted to make his job easier. The talented inventor made several machines, but nobody was interested. The young man was ahead of his time.

These small devices can perform a lot of mathematical operations. You just need to enter the numbers by pressing the keys and you'll see the final result on the screen in no time. Эксперт слушает фонетическую сторону речи: верное произношение звуков, фразовое ударение на значимых словах, падающую интонацию в повествовательных предложениях, смысловые паузы и беглость без сбоев.

Mathematical — сочетание th читается как глухой звук /θ/, ударение на слоге -mat-. Several — слово читается в два слога /ˈsevrəl/, средний слог не растягивается в три. Operations — сочетание ti читается как /ʃ/.

Решение
Разбор. Монолог должен раскрыть по порядку все четыре пункта плана карточки, начинаясь со вступления и заканчиваясь заключением. Полный текст: I would like to tell you about my school and my everyday life there. What I like most about my school is the friendly atmosphere, because my classmates and teachers are always ready to help each other. I also enjoy the modern computer room, where we have interesting IT lessons. The most difficult weekday for me is Monday, because we have five lessons in a row without a break for extra activities, and it is hard to get back into the school routine after the weekend. By Friday I usually feel much more relaxed, since the lessons are easier and shorter. If I could change something in my school life, I would like to have more sports lessons during the week. I would also add more time for creative subjects such as art and music. My attitude to my school life is positive overall, because I get a good education and make new friends every year. Sometimes school can be stressful because of tests and homework, but I try to organise my time well. I think a good balance between studying and rest makes school life much more enjoyable. To sum up, my school life has both easy and difficult sides, but I generally enjoy going to school.
Эксперт проверяет, раскрыты ли все четыре пункта плана в заданном порядке, есть ли чёткое вступление и заключение, связность и логичность речи, а также достаточный объём высказывания без грубых лексико-грамматических ошибок.
Ответ: Вступление; больше всего нравится дружеская атмосфера в школе; труднее всего — понедельник из-за плотного расписания; хотелось бы больше уроков спорта и творчества; отношение к школьной жизни — в целом положительное; заключение.
