CROCROSSWORDS
The crossword (puzzle) first appeared on December 21, 1913. Arthur Wynne created it for the New York World newspaper. Wynne gave 35 clues and called it a word-cross. The puzzle was a great success. The cross-word, as it called today, is the world’s most popular game. Nearly 90 percent of the world’s newspapers publish them. In the United States there are nearly thirty million fans of this game.
Most forms of games require a partner. Crosswords do not. This is, perhaps, the reason why they attract so much attention.
Why do people do crosswords? Maybe for educational value. Most fans say that they play crosswords to check their abilities and their speed in doing the puzzle. The more they play, the more they become to solve the most difficult crosswords.
But most experts doubt that puzzles teach anything. They say the most evident reason why the crosswords are played is that they are done just for fun.

There was once a very rich sick lady whose husband had died, and whose children had married and gone to live in foreign countries. When she reached the age of 80 and was too old to look after herself, she went to live in an expensive and comfortable hotel near the sea in the south. This rich old lady had a pair of nasty dogs which she loved dearly. They lived in the hotel with her and went wherever she did. There was a young waiter at the hotel who did everything he could to help the old lady and be nice to her. He even pretended to like her unpleasant dogs and offered to look after them in his free time. He fed them, cleaned and looked after them, took them for daily walks for some years.
The young waiter did not doubt that when the rich widow died she would leave him a lot of money, to pay him for everything that he had done for her dogs.

Mr. Jones liked to be comfortable, so when he gets into a train he always puts his suitcase on the seat beside him and pretends that it belonged to another passenger who had gone to buy something in the station.
One day he did this when the train was very crowded. Other passengers came and sat in the train in all the other seats except the one which his suitcase was lying on. Then an old gentleman arrived, looked at Mr. Jones’ case and said, “Is this somebody’s seat?” “Yes, “Answered Mr. Jones. “ A friend of mine is travelling with me, he has gone to buy some cigarettes, he will return soon.” “All right,” said the old gentleman. “I’ll sit here until your friend comes back. And then I’ll stand somewhere.” And he sat down after he had put the suitcase on the shelf above him.
Several minutes passed, the whistle blew, and the train began to move. The old gentleman jumped up suddenly and said, “I’m very sorry but your friend seems to have missed the train. We don’t want him to be separated from his suitcase, do we?” Before Mr. Jones was able to do or to say anything to prevent him, he took his suitcase and threw it out of the open window.
Why did Mr. Jones usually put his suitcase near him?
because it was comfortable to lean on
because he was afraid that it might be stolen by another passanger
because he wanted to keep that seat for himself
Were all the seats occupied by passengers that day?
Yes, they were
No, they were not. There were some vacant seats.
There was only one vacant seat.
How long did the gentleman say he would sit beside Mr. Jones?
until the conductor
until the old gentleman’s friend came
until the end of the journey
When did the old man throw the suitcase out of the window?
as soon as the train started
before the train began to move
when the train stopped
What would Mr. Jones do if he were quick enough?
call his friend
take the suitcase from the old man’s hands
light a cigarette

1.Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие за ним вопросы, выбрав единственно правильный вариант ответа.
Fishermen and sailors sometimes claim to have seen monsters in the sea. Though people have often laughed at stories told by seamen, it is known that many of these "monsters" which have at times been sighted are simply strange fish. Occasionally unusual creatures are washed to the shore, but they are rarely caught out at sea. Some time ago, however, a peculiar fish was caught near Madagascar. A small fishing-boat was carried miles out to sea by the powerful fish as it pulled on the line. Realising that this was no ordinary fish, the fishermen made every effort not to damage it in any way. When it was eventually brought to shore it was found to be over 13 feet long. It had a head like a horse, big blue eyes, shining silver skin, and a bright red tail. The fish, which has since been sent to a museum, where it is being examined by the scientists, is called an oar-fish.
Such creatures have rarely been seen alive by men as they live at depth of 600 feet
What are the monsters which fishermen sometimes claim to have seen?
They are probably unusual fish.
They are not fish at all.
They are anything but fish.
What was the creature that was caught in Madagascar?

b) It was a half-horse, half-fish.

They lived in deep waters of the ocean.
What did the people do with the fish?
They made tasty dishes of it.
They let it go.
They used it for scientific research.
Why do people often laugh at stories told by seamen?
Their stories are too funny.
They tell lies.
The stories are too unbelievable.

TEST 13
1.Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие за ним вопросы, выбрав единственно правильный вариант ответа.
A hundred years ago, the lamplighters in London were very busy men. It was their job , every evening, to light thousands of gas lamps in the city and the gentle light from those lamps was all that lit the foggy streets of Victorian London.
Nowadays, there are electric lamps in most London. They switch themselves on and off automatically and do the job of the lamplighter.
But some parts of London still have their traditional gas lamps which look just the same, though there is an automatic clock in them for switching them on and off.
So the lamplighter has just to reset it in each lamp once a week. There are 1.100 gas lamps in London. Most of them are in the parks and outside the Royal palaces. The Queen likes to preserve certain things coming down from the old good times and has gas lights outside Buckingham Palace. Westminster, the home of the Houses of the Parliament, has 400 , more than any other part of the capital. Naturally, traditions are important in that part of London and especially at the Temple where a lamplighter still goes round every evening to light the gas lamps by hand.
1. Are gas lamps still used in London?
No, they aren't used any longer.
Yes, they are used all over London.
Yes, they are still used in some parts of London.
2. Do the modern gas lamps look like the old ones?
No, they are altogether different.
Yes, they are rather alike.
Yes, they look quite the same.
3. How many gas lamps are there in London nowadays?
half a thousand
over a thousand
about two hundred
4. What do they still keep the gas lamps for?
for lighting up the streets
for saving electric lighting
for keeping tradition alive
5. In which part of London are there more gas lamps now?
at Westminster
in the suburbs of the capital
at the temple

TEST 14
1.Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие за ним вопросы, выбрав единственно правильный вариант ответа.
Work plays a very important role in Japan. A Japanese
says, "I belong to my company" and not "I work for my company". So a Japanese child, especially a boy, must work very hard, indeed. He begins to study seriously as soon as he starts going to school because if he doesn't pass all his exams he can't go to a good school and later to a good university - and so he can't get the good job he needs!
Because of this system Japanese children don't have as much time to play as children in most Western societies.
A lot of Japanese parents "arrange" marriages for their children. This is because they feel that marriage affects not only the young people, but the whole family. They believe that young people should have the same interests and social background to be happy after their marriage.
Sometimes parents go to a "matchmaker" whose job is to find a good pair and arrange for them to meet. If they like each other they get married. A lot of arranged marriages are very successful and help the tradition of the Japanese family to continue.
1. When does a Japanese begin to study seriously?
I
before he starts going to schoolas soon as he begins to attend school
after he leaves school
2. Why does a Japanese child have to do well at school?
to pass his exams and enter a good university.
to please his parents.
to go in for sports
3. Do Japanese children have as much spare time as children in Western countries?
No, they have no spare time at all.
Yes, they have a lot of time to spare for playing.
No, they have less spare time than children in Western countries.
4. When does a Japanese marry?
when he graduates from a university
when he falls in love
when his parents find a good match for him '
5. Are "arranged" marriages successful?
Yes, in most cases, they are quite a success.
No, they are always unhappy.
No, they are not so successful as marriages for love.

Then he got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall and began climbing towards the bedroom window. He was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said: "I don't think the windows need cleaning at this hour of the night."
Henry looked down and nearly fell off the ladder when he saw a policeman. He immediately regretted answering in the way he did, but he said , "I enjoy cleaning windows at night." "So do I", answered the policeman in the same tone. "But would you mind coming with me to the station?"
"Well, I'd prefer to stay here", said Henry, "You see, I've forgotten my key".

1.Прочитайте текст и ответьте на следующие за ним вопросы, выбрав единственно правильный вариант ответа.
By midday, the small party of boys, led by their schoolmaster , had reached a height of 2500 feet. At this point the
party had to stop climbing because one of the boys became seriously ill. The only thing the master could do was to return to the mountain hut where they had spent the night. From there he telephoned the police. As no rescue party could reach the boy quickly enough, the Royal Air Force Rescue Centre sent a helicopter with a policeman and a doctor on board. The helicopter soon arrived on the scene, but the sides of the mountain were so steep that it could not land. A helicopter usually lands on four wheels , but it can also land on two. However, the slope was too steep even for that. The pilot, therefore, kept the helicopter in the air with only one wheel touching the mountain-side while the party carried the boy on board.
1. The small party of boys and the schoolmaster were
high up in the mountain
2500 miles away from the mountain hut

2. Why did the schoolmaster telephone the police ?

One of the boys needed help.
3. A helicopter was sent to them as
it would arrive on the scene sooner than anything else.

only a helicopter could take the boy to hospital
Did the helicopter land on the mountain-side ?

People who work in offices are frequently referred to as "White collar workers" for the simple reason that they usually wear a collar and tie to go to work. A great many people are often willing to sacrifice higher pay for the privilege of becoming white collar workers. This can give rise to curious situations, as it did in the case of Alfred Bloggs who worked as a dustman. When he got married, Alf was too embarrassed to say anything to his wife about his job. Every morning, he left home dressed in a fine black suit. He then changed into overalls and spent the next eight hours as a dustman. Before returning home at night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit. Alf's wife never discovered that she had married a dustman. Alf has now found another job. He will soon be working in an office as a junior clerk. He will be earning only half as much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in status is well' worth the loss of money.
Why are English office clerks described as "white collar workers"?
because they wear white shirts at work.

During a civil defence exercise in a small town in Canada most of the inhabitants were asked to take part in the exercise during which they had to pretend that their city had been bombed. Thousands of people went into special air-raid shelters. Doctors and nurses remained above ground. The police did not have much to do because the citizens took the exercise seriously. A great many people had volunteered to act as casualties. Theatrical make-up and artificial blood had been used to make the injuries look realistic. A lot of people were lying "dead" in the streets., The living helped to carry the dead and wounded to special stations. A child of six was brought in by two adults. The child was supposed to be dead.
