Task 1. Reading.
Samantha: Good morning. I had a few questions about buying a bus ticket. Do I need to buy one In advance?
Agent: You can, but it’s not necessary. You just need to arrive at the Terminal at least an hour before the scheduled departure time to buy your ticket. Boarding begins about 15 to 30 minutes before departure.
Samantha: Can I reserve a seat?
Agent: No, seating is on a First-come, first-serve basis. I recommend getting there early during Peak times, but getting a good seat isn’t usually a problem with the Night service buses.
Samantha: I want to go from Charlestown to Myrtle Beach. Do you know how
many Stops the bus will be making?
Agent: I think that bus makes six stops to pick up passengers En route, but you can check the schedule to be sure. That doesn’t include Rest stops and meal stops. If you want to make fewer stops, you can buy a ticket for one of our Express buses.
Samantha: How many bags can I bring On board? I’ll have two big pieces of luggage.
Agent: You’re allowed two bags. The Handler can help you Load them upon boarding, but you’re responsible for Retrieving them when you get off. Can I help you with anything else?
Samantha: No, thanks.
Agent: Thank you for calling and Have a safe trip.

This folk tale is about grandfather and grandmother, who formed round creature Kolobok from dough. He runs away and meets different animals starting with hare and ending with fox. Kolobok managed to pass through animals because he sang to them. At the end of the tale he meets the fox and she eats Kolobok, because he is not careful. To my mind, the text teaches people to be always careful, even if everything around you is okay. You shouldn’t’t lose your mind because of success.
Объяснение:
Эта народная сказка о дедушке и бабушке, которые создали круглое существо Колобок из теста. Он убегает и встречает разных животных, начиная с зайца и заканчивая лисой. Колобку удалось пройти через животных, потому что он пел им. В конце рассказа он встречает лису, и она съедает Колобка, потому что он неосторожен. На мой взгляд, текст учит людей быть всегда осторожными, даже если все вокруг вас в порядке. Вы не должны забываться из-за успеха
Today we are preparing for Thanksgiving - it is always the fourth Thursday in November. Thanksgiving is a kind of harvest festival. This is a very old tradition in the USA. Families always spend the day together, so tonight my older sister is returning from college. Now dad is decorating the house and mom is making pumpkin pie. Tomorrow we'll have a big traditional Thanksgiving dinner with roast turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce. And tomorrow afternoon we visit our cousins to give them presents. here in the USA. Did you know that people eat 46 million turkeys every Thanksgiving?
