Задание 1. Прочитайте и переведите диалог (30минут):
-Do you like travelling?
-Yes, I do. I like to travel with my family or friends, it's fun and useful.
-Why is it useful?
-You can see the world and visit museums. You also get closer together.For example, this year our form master has organized an excursion to Novgorod. He contacted a school in Novgorod, it was agreed we would live in the school building during the spring holidays. We visited the Saint Sophia Cathedral, the Novgorod Kremlin, museum in the open air «Vitoslavlitsy», Jaroslav Courtyard marketplace and luriev monastery. We have learnt a lot about history of Russia before the Tartar invasion and yoke. But we have also all become better friends, because we have spent much time together.
-Where have you travelled?
-I have visited several Russian cities situated not far from St. Petersburg (Novgorod, Pskov, Luga) with my classmates and I have spent a fortnight with my parents in Sochi.
-How did you travel?
-To Novgorod, Pskov and Luga we went by local trains. But Sochi is far away. We went there by a far distance train, though we could fly as well. But to go by air is more expensive.
-Have you ever travelled by sea?
-Yes, two times. The first time it was an excursion from Sochi to Novorossiysk, a City-Hero. The second time it was a trip from St. Petersburg to the Valaam archipelago. I have not got the sea legs, that's why I did not enjoy the trips very much.
-What was the most exotic trip?
-I can name two of my trips exotic, though they were very short. The first I made on a horseback and the other - by helicopter!
- Tell about your trip to the Valaam archipelago in more detail, please.
-My mother bought two tours on a boat, so we did not have to book any tickets. The departure was at 8 in the morning so we packed the day before. It is always colder in the open sea or a big lake that's why we took sweaters, warm jackets and caps. On the day of departure we got up early and by the time of the embarkation we had come to the port. We went on board and came to our cabin. It was small but cosy, there were two berths, a folding table and a small wardrobe in it. We spent the day on deck looking at the seascapes, in the evening went to bed very early because we were tired. Early in the morning we reached the destination. When the boat landed, we had a tour around the main island and visited the cathedral. After dinner we had some spare time to walk about by ourselves. In the evening we came on board and I went to the disco, my mother stayed in the cabin. We slept very well, and in the evening of the third day we were at home.
-Have you ever travelled abroad?
-No, I haven't. I hope when I am at the university, I will earn some money for a trip at least to Finland or Turkey. It'll help me improve my English, because there I shall speak mostly English.
-Why do people travel?
-There are many reasons for traveling. There are business trips, when commercial travellers have some mission to execute; or there are merchants who want to sell their goods. Many people travel for pleasure to restore their health during their holidays and to learn about the world.
-Do you prefer traveling in a group to traveling alone?
-Yes, I do, because when you travel in a group of people you are sure to get help if needed. It is more fun as well. When you are alone, that's dull.
-What English-speaking countries would you like to visit?
-I'd like to visit Great Britain and the USA, of course. I have seen many sights in the pictures but I think that in the flesh they will be even more appealing. I'd take my camera with me to take photographs. I think souvenirs are good things but photos stay with you and you can prove everybody that you have been there. Photos also help you remember all the moments of an exciting trip.
-What other countries would you like to visit?
-France, because of its beautiful scenery and wonderful museums. I would also be happy to see Paris with the Louvre and other famous buildings.

The Stogovs left their flat early in the morning and went by bus to the country. Pyotr Nikolayevich and his family met them at the bus stop and took them to their house.
On the way, Pavel and Natasha showed Boris and Lena the fields of wheat and vegetables and the cattle-farm. Lena and Boris saw fields of green grass and flowers. In the fields there were many cows and sheep.
They went into the house and had dinner. After dinner they all went for a walk. Pyotr Nikolayevich showed the Stogovs the tractors and other machines. Natalia Alexandrovna took them to the cattle-farm. From the cattle-farm they went to the pig-farm. There were many large pigs, and many little ones.
