«Thank you, Mother», says Bob. In the daytime Bob has no time to read the book. In the evening Bob is very sleepy. He only looks at the pictures. Then he puts the book on the bookshelf and goes to bed. And at night he has a dream. In his dream he opens the book and looks at the pictures. In one of the pictures he sees a boy.
But what is it? The boy comes out of the book and says, «How do you do? What is your name?»
«My name is Bob. But who are you?» asks Bob.
«My name is Tom», says the boy. «I have a brother Sid and a sister Mary. We live with our Aunt Polly. What about you, Bob? Have you any brothers and sisters? »

16)By the 1820s, it extended not much beyond the Appalachians. The move to the West as we now know it began in earnest in the mid-1840s when the expression Oregon fever erupted.
17)Encouraged by the government to settle the north-western territory claimed also by Britain, thousands of homesteaders were set off for a new life at the end of the Oregon Trail.
18)The peopling of the West became not just an opportunity to be seized, but a kind of mission.
19)The Oregon Trail is a somewhat misleading term. For one thing, it wasn’t a trail in the sense of a well-deTned track. It was a corridor, highly likely variable in width, across the grassy plains.
20)Moreover, after the Trst few years relatively a few of those who travelled the trail were heading for Oregon.
21)One of the great myths of the westward migration, compounded by a thousand movies, was that the immigrants lumbered over the prairies in Conestoga wagons. These sturdy vehicles were uselessly heavy for the long pull to Oregon or California.
22)They did not haul some freight west, but almost never did they transport families. Instead westward immigrants used lighter, smaller and much nimbler wagons universally known as prairie schooners.
23)These were hauled not by horses, but by mules or oxen, which could withstand the hardships of prairie crossings far better than any horse could.
24)A Tnal myth engendered by Hollywood was that wagons gathered in a circle whenever under attack by Indians. They didn’t, and for the simple reason that the process would have been so laborious to organize that the party would very probably have been slaughtered before the job was even a one quarter accomplished.
25)Wagons were covered with a canvas, as in the movies, though that word was seldom used
26)The material was more generally known in the nineteenth century as twill. Though wagon train was also used (it is Trst recorded in 1849), the term wasn’t particularly apt.
27)For much of the journey the wagons fanned out into an advancing line up to ten miles wide to avoid each other’s dust — and providing yet another obstacle to their forming into circles.
28)Many of the early homesteaders had only the faintest idea of what they were being letting themselves in for, and often through no fault of their own. Until well into the third decade of the nineteenth century ignorance of the West remained so profound!
29)Those who went west, incidentally, didn’t think of themselves as still being in America.

Read and match the paragraph titles (A–H) with the paragraphs (1–7). There is one extra title.
A. Sports and money.
B. The riskiest sports.
C. The most popular sport.
D. Sports at school.
E. Young, sporting and rich.
F. Sporting inventions.
G. The fastest-growing sports.
H. Sports to stay healthy.
1. According to recent statistics, the sport that causes most injuries is rugby, and football is a close second. Despite the popularity of these games, and although we teach school children to play them, they injure more people per 1,000 than motor-racing, skiing, or scuba-diving. Of course, people do get hurt in ‘adventure sports’ and the most dangerous is climbing, which kills eight people a year.
2. Britain does not often produce sportsmen or sportswomen who are successful in world sporting championships, but it has been good at inventing sports and writing the rules of games. Golf was first played in Scotland in the fifteenth century. Cricket was first played in England in the sixteenth century. Nineteenth-century team sports, such as football, rugby and hockey, were first played in British public schools.
3. Sport today means big business for both players and sponsors. Sporting events like the World Cup, which has a TV audience of 35 billion people, make huge amounts of money. Companies like Coca Cola and Adidas have paid more than $20 million to sponsor a sports event. They know that people all over the world will see their names and logos at the sports stadiums and on participants’ clothes.
4. Children are encouraged to participate in sports at an early age. There are children’s baseball, football, and basketball teams in almost every community. The rivalry between high schools and colleges in sporting events goes right through the school year from football in September to track and field in June. Cheerleaders and bands lead the supporters in rooting for their home team.
5. Many top stars make a fortune during their sporting careers. Tiger Woods, the professional golfer, is only 23 years old. He has already earned more than $5 million. He has won eight tournaments in his career so far, including the US Masters which he won in 1997. He reached the position of the world’s top player in the shortest time ever — just 42 weeks. He is sponsored by Nike, the sportswear company.
6. The majority of people live in towns and cities, where space for team sports is limited. Most people take part in individual sports. They usually go walking, swimming, cycling, or do aerobics. Taking part in all these sports is informal and casual. Most people just want to relax. If they do aerobics or go swimming, they usually go to the sports centre, but not many people join a sports club.
7. Britain’s national sport is football. During the football season most professional footballers play two matches every week. Many people say this is too many because the players cannot devote enough time and energy to international games. The 22 best English teams play in the Premier League, run by the Football Association. Liverpool is the most successful team and have won the most games in tournaments.

Read the text and do the task
Litter is garbage – like food, paper and cans – on the ground or in the street. Where many people live together, litter is a problem. People don’t always put their garbage in the bins. It’s easier to drop a paper than to find a bin for it. But litter is ugly. It makes the city look dirty, and it spoils the view.
The wind blows papers far away. Often they are difficult to catch. When they blow against a fence, they stay there. This fence is a wall of garbage.
Litter is a health problem, too. Food and garbage attract animals, which sometimes carry disease.
Some people want to control litter. They never throw litter themselves, and sometimes they work together in groups to clean up the city. In most places litter is against the law. The law punishes people who throw garbage in the streets. They usually pay a fine, and occasionally they go to jail.
Two famous sayings in the United States are: “Don’t be a litterbug!” and “Every litter bit hurts!”
1) Litter is a problem among people.
a) true b) false c) not stated
2) Garbage makes our cities look awful.
3) There are special bins for different garbage in the streets.
4) Papers are easy to catch.
5) Garbage attracts sick animals.
6) Groups that clean litter are in every city.
7) In some countries people are punished for dropping litter.
