Hi, my name is Jennet. I’m a teenager and I have got some nice friends. We go to the same school, and some of them are actually my classmates. None of us is picky and we are all loyal to each other. Usually I share hobbies and interests with my friends, but, as they say, no one in the world looks exactly the same. So we are both different and alike. What makes us different and what makes us alike? The main thing that makes us different is how we look. Most of my friends have brown hair, but my hair is dark. Our eyes are round and big, but I am not as tall as my friends. I am a little bit shorter than them.
Sometimes we may have different hobbies. Most of my friends are good at practical things, but I am a bookworm and like English literature very much. Recently I have joined the English club at our school, but some of my friends do tennis.

Examination questions №5

1. Read the first paragraph of the text “Travelling round the city” and ask special questions. Pg. 36. (English 7, 2019).

I think the best way to travel is to walk. When you go on foot you do not need any kind of transport. You can look around and watch the beauty of the buildings and landscapes. But it takes a lot of time to get somewhere on foot. If you don’t have much time and you are in a hurry it is better to use public transport. If you live not far from the underground, I advise you to use this means of transport. First of all, it's the fastest. Underground trains run every 3 to 5 minutes. It's a little more expensive than trams and trolley-buses but cheaper than most buses and minibuses. Moreover, you can choose to travel by trams, trolleybuses or buses as well. Besides you can also travel along the city by car if you have one. If you need to get somewhere in a short period of time you can order a taxi by telephone. But it can be expensive. I wish you to have a good time and nice impressions of the city.

me watch one or two cartoons or play a game on my tablet for an hour, but then make me read or make a craft. They say that too much screen time is bad for my health and won’t help me become smarter.

Though my friends and I sometimes complain, we think that it’s good that our parents limit our technology time because sometimes we might stay inside all day watching TV and forget to do our homework. It is true that TV, tablets, and computers are fun, but we shouldn’t forget to play outside, read a book and help about the house.
