Английский язык для школьников №23 1. Прочтите текст "The Pilgrims" и выберите единственно правильный ответ. THE PILIGRIMS The Pilgrims were puritans, that is to say, people of England who objected to the form of religious feelings shown to God and religious services used in the Church of England. King James punished all who refused to follow laws and traditions of the Church of England and to give money to support it. These people had to leave their country and went to Holland trying to find religious freedom there. But they were not allowed to own land in Holland and, besides, they did not want their children to grow up and become Dutchspeaking people. They wanted to remain English; so, they soon returned to England with the idea of leaving for America. There, where the lands were still wild, they hoped to build homes for themselves and start a new life based on their own ideals of religious an

Английский язык для школьников №21 1. Прочтите текст "What Happened to the Dinosaurs" и выберите единственно правильный ответ. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DINOSAURS? Science may never answer the most puzzling question. What killed these mighty creatures? One of the most popular theories about the death of the dinosaurs is that the world just grew too cold for them. Indeed, for large, cold-blooded creatures, even a few nights of cold could spell death. Not everyone agrees that a change in weather would have been enough to kill the dinosaurs. The latest development in the debate amongst scientists about what killed the prehistoric dinosaurs is the suggestion that acid rain was the cause. Some geologists suggest that a large meteor hitting the earth at 65 kilometres per second would have led to strongly acidic rain falling all over the world. These geologists calculated that if an ice-rich meteor weigh

But it's not fun or exciting if you get ill. You may think, "Not me. I won't fall ill on my holiday!" But, for many people, that is what happens. Of course you do not want to spend your holiday ill in bed. If you have heart trouble, you don't want to make it worse. So what can you do to stay in good health? There are three things you should remember when you travel: relax, sleep and eat well. A holiday is supposed to be a time for relaxing. But to our regret very often it is not.

A STORY ABOUT FORKS In 1608 an Englishman whose name was Thomas Coryate visited Italy. He liked the country and noted down every interesting thing he found.

At home Thomas gave a dinner party to show the invention to his friends. When the servants brought the steak, he took out a fork and began to eat like they did in Italy. Everybody looked at him in surprise. When he told his friends what it was, they all wanted to take a good look at the strange thing. All his friends said that
