                                                   About a wild animal

I would like to tell you about a sloth whose name is Cloddy. It is a wild animal, which lives in rainforests of South America. It seems that this mammal looks like the slowest animal in the world, but it could be extremely fast if there is any danger. It has thick brown fur and it is a size of a cat. The fur is full of insects and sometimes is quite dirty. Cloddy has a funny mask with a cute smile, but the long claws could look unpleasant. This creature usually hangs on a tree and eats many leaves every day.

В тексте упоминается: название животного - sloth (=ленивец); имя - Cloddy; цвет животного - brown (= коричневый); как выглядит - the slowest animal in the world (= самый ленивый в мире), it could be extremely fast if there is any danger (= может быть очень быстр, если есть какая-либо опасность), it has thick brown fur (= у него толстый коричневый мех), it is a size of a cat (= он размером с кота), the fur is full of insects and sometimes is quite dirty (= мех полон насекомых и иногда очень грязный), a funny mask with a cute smile (= смешная мордочка с милой улыбкой), the long claws could look unpleasant (неприятно могут выглядеть его лапы с когтями).

Tom, Thanks for offering to chair tomorrow’s meeting for me. Apart from Sally and Dave, the sales staff …needn't.. attend, but the Personnel people …mustn't.. miss it, as several matters concern them. You …needn't.. mention the new offices – we can deal with that later and you …needn't.. discuss the changes in the computer course timetables since they’re not urgent. Don’t forget that you …mustn't.. mention the visit by inspectors – we don’t want people panicking. You …mustn't.. forget to bring up the matter of the Smithson contract, and you also …mustn't.. leave out the new manager’s appointment. You …needn't.. go into details unless people have questions. But remember you …mustn't.. give anyone the idea that their job is at risk because of this. Make it clear that employess …needn't.. speak unless they want to. Last but not least, you …mustn't.. mention the staff-party Mr. Jones wants to announce that himself. By the way, you …needn't.. take notes, as my secretary will be there to do that. Thanks, Laura.
