    Coventry
    Dear Sir or Madam,
    In reply to your advertisement in "The Star" on Monday, November 14th, I would like to apply
    for the position of social worker with your Council.
    As you can see from my enclosed curriculum vitae, I am a twenty six year old graduate from
    the University of Cambridge, where I read the social sciences.
    Since graduating I have had considerable practical training in dealing with handicapped children
    of all ages. During the two years in which I was employed as a teacher in Paris, 1spent my vacations
    in a holiday centre which had been established especially to cater for the needs of the mentally and
    physically disabled. I feel that the experience I gained there has furnished me with an insight into the
    problems such people face.
    Since returning to England 1 have been engaged in doing voluntary social work at local schools
    in Northampton, and am now extremely keen to broaden my horizons at an establishment such as
    yours.
    Should you wish to pursue my application, 1 would be available for an interview at your
    convenience. Perhaps you could contact me at the following phone number: (052) 62743892
    Yours faithfully,
    John Brown

    I've been afraid of heights since
    my early childhood, and I don't know
    how to overcome it.
    When did you collect those leaflets?
    This is an off-season ticket, so it's cheaper.
    Tpresume they're going to launch
    the campaign tomorrow.
    This is the height of the season, so you may
    have trouble getting a vacant room in a hotel.
    You are an idiot because you've missed
    such a splendid opportunity.
    I'll walk out on you if you
    don't buy me that ring.
    Even though I work so hard,
    I can hardly make both ends meet.
    I don't want to come to termS with it.
    I must do something to change it.
    As a civil engineer you shouldn't
    complain about your salary.
    What a scrooge you are!
    Why are you lying you're short of money?
    Is his decision final?
    The product is good, and moreover,
    its price is reasonable.
    Don't exaggerate the difficulties!
    We will handle them.
    -De mic copil mi-a fast

    -Cand ai strans pliantele acelea?

    Veli intelege ell l l ~ u r n l dialogul care urmeaza. John ~ Ann ~ fae planuri pentru vacanla de
    vara. Sa eitim eu atentie conversalia lor:
    John and Ann are talking about their summer holidays.
    Ann: John, I'd like to go to some really interesting place this summer.
    John: Aren't we going to the Lake District, as usual?
    Ann: You know very well I hate climbing. Moreover, I'm afraid of heights.
    John: Have you got any better ideas?
    Ann: Why don't we go abroad? I haven't been at the seaside for ages. 1 was at a travel agency
    today, where I collected a few leaflets. Here's an interesting one: "Holidays in a
    four-star hotel in Niece, with the sun, the sea, in an ideal climate. Reduced price." If you're
    not too busy, could you have a look at it now?
    John: I can have a look at the leaflet, but I don't think we can afford to go abroad this year.
    Ann: If we saved a little harder, we could just manage, couldn't we?
    John: Well, I think we could.
    Ann: That's lovely, John. I'll phone the agency immediately and have them book the hotel for the
    first two weeks in July.
    John: Just a minute. I'm afraid we didn't look at the leaflet very carefully: "special reduced
    off-season price". I presume the hotel will cost much more at the height of the season.
    Ann: Oh, John, you can spoil everything. We can't miss the opportunity. We've never been to
    France. If we don't go there this year, I'll walk out on you.
    John: You know well that recently we've been finding it difficult to make both ends meet. I hate to
    say that, but we can only afford to spend our holidays in England. You must come to terms
    with it.
    Ann: Don't exaggerate. I said: "Ifwe saved a little harder..." and you said: "...we could". Moreover,
    I don't complain about my salary. As a civil engineer you earn quite a lot, too. But you're a
    scrooge. Last summer we didn't go anywhere because you claimed we were short of money.
    I am not going to the Lake District. And that's final.

    in aceast:l parte a leqiei ne vom concentra asupra a trei adverbe: aetuany, eventually, hardly. Ele
    sunt adesea folosite incorect de cei care i'nvata engleza.
    Vom discuta despre cele mai uzuale despre folosirea corect:l a acestor cuvinte. Vom
    analiza mai intiii "actually" "eventually", iari apci "hardly".
    Actuany
    Eventually
    Aceste cuvinte sunt adeseafolosite il/corect din cauza asenn/Ilarii lar eu euvintele romalleifti "actual"
    "eventual ".
    Actually inseamna "intr-adevar, de fapt, iar eventually
    tnseamna "'in cc1c din urma, pana la urma".
    Utilizarea incorecta a euvantului actually:
    We need to export more than we do
    in acest caz, tn foeul lui actually ar trebui folosite cuvintele at prescnt sau currently ele s-ar
    traduce prin: "til prezent. acum" Deci, forma corecta a propozi{iei de mai sus ar fi urmdtaarea:
    Could you lend me 10 dollars, please?
    in aceastd propozifie, 1/1 lac de eventually ar trebui folosit cuvdntul possibly, care fnseamna:
    "se roate, cumva ".

    We need to export more than we do


    at present/currently.
    Utilizarea eorecta a lui actually:

    Hardly
    Modul ill care este format CUVQlltul hard + ly poate duce fa illterpretiiri utiliziiri ca
    de exemplu: "cu greutate, cu dificuftate ".
    Utilizarea incorecta a lui hardly:
    Don't punish him
    I've been working too
    Propozitiile de mai sus ar trebui sa arate dupa cum urmeaza:
    Don't punish him too hard,
    I've been working too nard.
    Utilizarea eoreeta a lui hardly:
    I hardly know the people I work with.

    Ann ~ John sunt deja la Nisa. Sa citim dialogurile cu aten\ie ~ vom afla cum ~ petrec el
    vacan\a:
    Ann and John are in a four-star hotel in Niece.
    Ann: There we arc, at last. The suite is really nice. It is air-conditioned. We have a TV-set and
    satellite TV. There's also a double bed in here. The hotel is within walking distance of the
    beach. Do you mind if we go to the beach this afternoon?
    John: That's a mllrvellous idea!
    Ann: After sunbathing and swimming in the sea, we can go for a stroH towards the evening.
    John: Are you going to be on the beach all day? That's boring! We must move a little bit outside
    the beach. Why don't we visit the Old Town or go shopping?
    Ann: Oh, John. Old Towns are the same everywhere. I'm not here to do shopping. Tdo it all the
    year around. I'll never get a nice tan in England.
    John: All right, all right.
    ***
    Ann: Oh, John, what a trial you arc! You've been dragging me along the coast, trying to find the
    best beach. We've already wasted a lot oftime. I'm not going any further - I'm staying here.
    John: OK. Look at the notice over there. It says: "Guarded Beach". Thars what we need. I must be
    sure there are life-guards on the beach to keep a watchful eye on us when we're in the water.
    Ann: Oh, John. You're always so careful.
    Ann: We've had a wonderful time here. I'm only sorry we can't stay here any longer.
    John: Yeah, the region is great, local people are so friendly, and you look gorgeous with your tan.
    We can return here next year.

    Vom veri fica aeum cat de bine ne-am cuvintele noi. Vom din nOLI propozi!iile din textul
    nostru Ie vom i'mpar!i in fragmente mai scurte. Completa!i eu euvintele lipsa:
    It is generally accepted that violence on
    television can harm children psychologically.
    It is also conceded that violence is offensive
    to most adults to some degree and therefore
    must be duly controlled.
    But until recently there has been little
    willingness to acknowledge the most
    powerful reason for concern: the fact that
    violence on the screen may encourage real
    violence.
    Some television producers claim that in
    certain particular cases where crimes of
    violence were said to have been a reaction
    to fictional violence, no such direct
    relationship existed or was provable.
    However, concern about social effects of
    television violence rests on the fact that
    realistic simulations of ferocious violence
    made possible by the use of film turn the
    viewer into a witness of, and an accomplice
    to, acts which in real life are never likely to
    be seen.

    Television - "one-eyed monster"
    Television is one of the most popular mass media in the
    contemporary world. It reaches a great number of viewers at the
    same moment, using both pictures and words. Television appeals
    to literate and illiterate viewers.
    Some people claim that it is, however, detrimental, calling it "a one-
    eyed monster". It occupies a good deal of our spare time. Children,
    for instance, are addicted to the telly. They are unwilling to do their
    homework, read books, or go outside because they must watch
    their favourite programmes. Adults neglect their duties because of
    television. When watch television, they do l10ttalk with each
    other, they do not exchange the news of the day because television
    demands absolute silence.
    Moreover, the quality of some programmes is very low. Viewers are
    often exposed to rubbishy cartoons, films, shows, commercials, or
    violence.
    In conclusion, one can say that television is a method of conveying
    words and pictures but it can also prevent people from
    communicating with each other.

    cartoons, films, shows, commercials,
    or violence.
    In conclusion, one can say that tele\ ision

    Sa citim dialogul. Mary se cu John Ii 0 intamplare ciudata.
    Mary is telling John about a strange adventure
    M: I haven't told you yet what happened to me last Saturday.
    J: Go ahead. I love listening to your incredible stories. I'm all ears.
    M: As you know last Saturday I was on my way to see my uncle George. I was a bit in a
    hurry because I had overslept. To make things worse, I couldn't get my car started.
    Suddenly, 1saw a little creature asleep in the driveway. Do you know what it was?
    J: I haven't got the slightest idea.
    M: It was a puppy. It was lying asleep. I got out of the car and picked it up. When I
    touched it, I felt it shivering with cold. I felt sorry for it, but I was already late and
    couldn't take it home, so I put it in my shopping bag.
    J: What happened next?
    M: I put the puppy in my bag and drove off to see uncle George.
    J: There's nothing exciting about that.
    M: Hold on a minute. On my way to my uncle's place I stopped at a petrol station to buy
    some petrol. I went to pay for the petrol, leaving the puppy in the car. In the meantime
    I spotted a nice photo album and decided to take a peek at it. When I got back, my
    bag and the puppy were gone.
    J: You must be kidding!
    M: No, it's all true. Cross my heart! I looked around, but I couldn't find it anywhere. I
    searched my car and the petrol station, but my search was futile. You can imagine how
    I was feeling at the moment.
    J: You must have felt pangs of conscience.
    M: Exactly so. Anyway, I rushed to my uncle to tell him about it. When I was driving back
    home, I couldn't help thinking about that poor little creature. I was overcome with a
    sense of guilt.
    J: I'd have felt the same.
    M: When I got back it was dark and foggy. I stopped the car and got out. It was so dark
    that when I came near the street door I could hardly find the keyhole. Finally, I opened
    the door. When I was crossing the threshold, I heard a faint sound. I got back to my
    car and saw my puppy wagging its tiny tail. I was overcome with joy.
    J: Do you know how it got there?
    M: I think this will presumably remain an unsolved mystery.
    J: Incredible. Still, it makes a good story.

    Sa repetam inca 0 data:
    intotdeauna
    Pentru a forma propozitii in limba engleza, avem nevoie de cuvinte ca:
    in fiecare dimineata
    Cuvintele "often, always, seldom" stau intotdeauna intre verb
    pronumele personal, pe cand expresiile "every day, every morning" stau
    la inceputul sau la propozitiei.
    in fiecare zi
    I often enter the church_
    We always see the train.
    You open the door every day.
    Exersati cuvintele noi:
    (eu) vad > I scc >[al Sl:]
    (tu) deschizi > you opcn >[iu: aupnJ
    (noi) intram > we entcr > [Ui: cnta']
    (ei, ele) viziteaza > they VISit >[O'ei viZl!]
    Acum vom construi cateva propozitii simple. Fiti atenti la pronuntie:
    rar
    They seldom visit
    the tower.

    In prima parte a lectiei am clarificat regulile de formare a intrebarilor raspunsunlor cu ajutorul
    verbului to be. lnversiunea nu poate fi folosita in toate cazurile de formulare a intrebarilor.
    in propozifiile aflrmative intalnite pana aeum, verbul era folosit la timpul prezent simplu -
    (the Simple Present Tense [DZa simpl prezant tens]). in propozi{iile interogative, toate verbele
    cu exceptia lui to be, sunt illsofite de auxiliarul verbul to do [tu du]. in aeest caz verbul to do
    [tu du] sta inaintea subiectului dupa care urmeaza verbul de conjugat.
    We seldom see the buildings. - What >do we seldolll see? - Ce vedem rar?
    acum, prin intennediul exemplelor urmatoare yeti vedea cum folosim verbul auxiliar "does":

    Propozi!ie interogativii folosind "who":
    Who likes cars?
    Who seldom sees
    the station?
    Who opens the door
    every day?
    Constructia interogativului fonnulata cu ajutorul cuvantului "who"
    ("cine?") este asemanatoare cu cea a propozitiei afirmative, numai
    ca pronumele personal sau substantivul este inlocuit de cuvantul
    "who". In acest caz, verbul va fi conjugat la persoana a treia
    singular, deci va primi intotdeauna tenninatia ,,-s".
    Do you like the girl? Yes, I do. - Da.
    Does she live in Bucharest? Yes, she does. - Da.

    punem pronumele personal corespunziitor, apoi verbul auxiliar. in eazul raspunsurilor seurte

    They seldom see
    the station.
    You like cars.
    John opens the door
    every day.
    !ntrebarea se formuleaza altfel cu ajutorul cuvfmtului who.
    Acum sa folosim formele prescurtate. Dati raspunsuri negative la urmatoarele intrebari:
    >Where do you want to go by bus?
    > 1)0 you know the hotel in Station Street?
    > Do you want to go there in the afternoon?

    >Where do you often go')
    >No, he doesn't.
    >No, we don't.
    >No, she doesn't

    Fonna prescurtata a lui "do not" este "don't" [daunt], iar a lui

    Sa ne intoarcem din nou la utilizarea timpului Present Perfect Tense. Folosim acest timp pentru
    descrierea evenimentelor petrecute in trecut care includ mai mult sau mai putin momentul actual,
    alaturi de always, ever, never just, precum alaturi de urmatoarele complemente de timp:
    recently >
    [ri:sntli]
    - recent, de curand
    lately >
    [ leltli]
    - recent, de curand, in ultima vreme
    already >
    [o:lredi]
    - deja
    yet >
    [ iet]
    - inca, deja
    so far >
    [sau fa:
    f
    ]
    - pana acum, deocamdata

    Complementul de timp "yet" se afla intotdeauna la propozitiei, "so far" la


    inceputul sau la propozitiei, iar celelalte complemente de timp se gasesc
    inaintea formei a Ill-a a verbului sau la propozitiei.
    Cititi cu voce tare complementele de timp care se folosesc alaturi de Present Perfect:
    ever >
    [eva']
    - vreodata, candva
    already >
    [0: lredi]

    always >
    [o:l"eiz]
    - intotdeauna

    My sister works at the airport. She must get up early, when it is still dark.
    Does she like this work?
    I think she does. She likes to watch the planes when they rise into the sky.
    Where did she work before?
    Yes, I know a lot of them. They are always in a hurry. And some ofthem smoke too much,
    too.
    So it was easy for her to leave the butcher's for the airport?
    Yes, it was. But it was difficult to find this new work. I helped her. She will never return to
    the butcher's shop.
    At the butcher's. And she wanted to change her work, because she had to clean many
    things there. She didn't like it.
    Do you like clothes which are out of fashion?
    No, I don't. I never buy them.
    But they are not so expensive as other clothes. And sometimes I have little money.
    Last week I spent a lot of money on a new coat. Another coat was cheaper, but it wasn't
    waterproof. And when I tried it on it did not fit.

    Barbara: How did she help you?
    John: You know I wanted to buy a car after I had earned more money. But I was still short of
    money and she gave me some.
    Barbara: Today we must go to the supermarket to do some shopping. There are many things on my
    shopping-list. Now you can return this money!
    John: Why must we go to the supermarket all the time?
    Barbara: Because the shop-assistants are very polite there and they stock almost everything. And
    today they have sales there.
    Mary, have you heard that a lot oflabourers don't like their jobs?
    No, I haven't. And why don't they like their jobs?
    They say their wages are too low and they must often apply for a raise.
    Well, I have heard about that. But the management has refused their applications so far.
    Hardly any employees like the management.
    And the other problem is that there is unemployment in our surroundings. Even John has
    hardly worked this summer. The trade-union wants to negotiate about the strike.
    And all our employees are members of this trade-union. The management already knows
    about it and wants to fire some of the employees. Do you know how many people they
    want to fire')
    No, I don t. I think there must be a few. But there are many unskilled workers and they
    will not get a job.
    I must give my thanks to your mother because she has helped me.
    Good. today I'll take you to the supermarket in my new car.
    33
    Mary, today we have a lot of work to do.
    I know. I must dust the tables, empty the rubbish-bin and iron my father's shirts.
    And I must place the gas-cooker somewhere else, because it cannot stand next to the
    fridge.
    But you can't do it today. All of our electric tools are out of order.
    I almost forgot about that. Then I'll go and buy a new electric oven to the kitchen.
    But Tom, we must pay for it in cash and right now we are short of cash.
    Then I will peel the vegetables for dinner.

    pe deplin pronuntia intonatia.
    Peter, have you ever been in an accident?
    No, I haven't, but my brother was yesterday afternoon.
    How did it happen?
    My brother was on a zebra-crossing at the traffic-lights and a cab was
    coming from the right.
    And... what happened?
    The cab didn't stop in time and my brother was hit by it.
    Was your brother injured?
    Yes, he was, but fortunately not seriously.
    I am glad he wasn't seriously injured. Were there any witnesses who saw
    the accident?
    There were many onlookers, and the witnesses say my brother did not
    cause the accident.
    I feel so tired after a hard day of work.
    People are tired when they get home from factories and offices.
    And they do nothing only go to bed early because they are sleepy.
    When it is too noisy outside they wake up.
    I usually wake up even when it's only a little noisy.
    But when you have a nightmare you are glad when you hear the alarm
    clock.
    Peter. do you travel mainly by underground to your office?
    Yes, J do. You travel by underground fast and easily.
    Yes, but it has become very expensive. Do you have a time-table?
    There are so many underground trains that you don't need a time-table.
    And a modem underground is not noisy or dirty.
    - 31 -
    Have you heard the news that yesterday a pedestrian was hit by a car at the
    traffic-lights?
    No, I haven't, but some pedestrians think they always have the right of
    way.
    But everybody knows that it is not true.
    Yes, everybody knows it only the pedestrians don't. We must all try to
    prevent accidents.
    You are right. Policemen cannot do everything.
    I think it is better when there are also traffic-lights.

    Peter, don't you think that we still have time for shopping?
    I don't know. The streets are still full of traffic and you cannot drive very fast.
    And something is wrong with the car. It didn't accelerate well when I was driving home.
    And you don't know what the trouble is, so you have to ask a mechanic to check
    everything.
    If the trouble is serious I have to call a breakdown van.
    Peter, the mechanic just called and said that he had to put a new engine in our car, but is
    that true?
    I don't know. You know that some people are not reliable. They only want your money.
    But we don't have enough money right now to pay for a new engine.
    Then we have to borrow money, at a high rate of interest.
    This shows how one bad thing can cause another.
    Well, it is better not to worry too much.
    People try to write very fast because they have little time.
    But when you do the necessary things you leave the bank in a hurry.
    Yes, many people want to make a withdrawal or a deposit.
    I think so. Why do you ask that?
    Dar mie imi plac cele bune.

    Peter, did you listen to what Barbara and John have just said?
    Yes, I did. The weather is something to talk about every day and everywhere.
    When people meet, they like to talk about the weather.
    They are glad when they can sit in the sun for example.
    Sometimes the weather can give us beautiful things.
    A lightning can be very impressive, but it also scares some people.
    Is there anybody who doesn't enjoy looking at a rainbow? And what about a beautiful
    sunset?
    Even a thunderstorm or a shower can be beautiful.
    The best thing is to be satisfied with the weather, for there is nothing that we can change
    about it.
    Barbara, I just read in the newspaper that to people who live in the country and earn their
    money in agriculture, the weather is much more important than to those who live in a town
    or city.
    That's right, favourable weather is necessary for a good crop.
    But sometimes it is too dry and at other times it is too wet.
    There has to be enough sun, too.
    Yes, but if it is too dry for too long, the crop will not grow fast enough.
    But we know that farmers are not easily satisfied.
    Ei s-au oferit (singuri) sa reeolteze secara.
    El ma duce acasa cu diseara.

    Of course there are happier things to talk about than crime, such as weddings.
    Yes, just tell me please who isn't happy himself when he sees other people happy on their
    wedding-day.
    Even if you prefer to stay single you can imagine that this is a day they will never forget.
    We must hope that life will always bring us more to be happy about than to be sad about.
    Speaking about crime you know that people have always said that crime doesn't pay.
    But in some countries crime seems to be profitable because the criminals are not sufficiently
    punished.
    I agree, and if a prisoner is convicted of a crime, he often doesn't have to go to prison for
    a long time.
    How true it is. They say this is because the criminal didn't know what he was doing when
    he commited the crime. Don't ask me how they know.
    And if a prisoner's behaviour is good he is released.
    I think the only thing we can do to change this situation is to punish the people who don't
    want to punish the criminals.

    What John was saying was true. But don't other people feel bad when there is nothing for
    them to do, or at least they think there is nothing?
    Yes, I think so. Usually these people are wasting their time or choose to listen to the radio
    or watch television.
    And these people are very happy when friends come to visit them so they can talk about
    the news or whatever is worth talking about.
    Wouldn't it be difficult to say which of these is the better way of spending time?
    Well, it's hard to say. We are always ready to say that we are doing things the right way
    and other people are not.
    But how can we be sure?
    It is a good thing that we are all different.
    John! Clever people say time is an important thing in our lives.
    Of course. To do the things we have to do we need time.
    When there is too little time we cannot do things as well as we want to do them.
    Yes, but there are people who always know what to do with the time.
    You are so right.They go for a walk or read a book or make all kinds of things that are
    useful or beautiful.
    Sometimes they sell these things, which is their way of showing that time is really money.

    York to London. When I was boarding the plane l saw the cockpit. The door was wide
    open so I could look at all the instruments, I was a little afraid before take-otr I tried
    not to think about collisions on the runway and hijackers. A few minutes after take-off
    all my fear was gone. I had a window seat and could watch the beautiful views. The
    journey was nice. I once flew by helicopter and it was horrible. Helicopters are so

    SPACE
    Man has always been interested in space and has always wanted to find
    out whE?ther there was life on other planets. The first artificial Earth satellite
    was put into orbit in 1957. Four years later the first astronaut was sent into
    space in a spacecraft. In 1969 the first astronauts landed on the moon. In
    the early 1980s Americans built the first space shuttle. A space shuttle is
    launched as a rocket and it re-enters the Earth's atmosphere and lands
    like an aeroplane.

    LIFE IN THE ZOO
    Zoos have existed for many years. Many people are against them because animals
    are caged there. They say it is cruel to keep savage animals in cages. Some
    animals get restless having such a little space to live in. They don't have to hunt for
    food and tear their prey into pieces. They feed on what is given to them as regular
    meals. If they were set fretthey wouldn't know how to'stalk their prey. Animals
    that were born in polar regions don't feel well when they're moved into a zoo in a
    warmer climate. And what about the fastest of all animals? If a cheetah were set free
    after a few years in a zoo it would be difficult for it to outrun its prey.

    TRADES
    We all know that computers are more and more important in the life of modern man. However,
    our world cannot be imagined without the work of tradesmen. Carpenters and plumbers are
    tradesmen who work in the construction of new houses. Painters also work in the building
    trade: they do the finishing tasks with the help of their different kinds of brushes. In heavy
    industry, a docker's job is to load and unload ships white factory workers produce anything
    Iromcars to TV sets. We send most 01 our messages by mail. Apostman's job is very important
    but it is not an easy one; it needs much patience and honesty. Shoemakers work in light
    industry and they produce and repair shoes, Many 01 them are independent tradesmen.
    Nowadays young people are less and less interested in becoming tradesmen. The constant
    worry 01 discharge has become a major problem: it can happen to all who work in whatever
    prolession. That is why learning a trade now may be useful one day.

    Hi Chris! There is some post in your letterbox.
    Thanks, Laura. I'll go and get it later. By the way, do you know how much the postage is for
    a postcard to France?
    I'm not sure. All the mail-services are getting more and more expensive. I never remember
    how much they are.
    Well. I have to go to the post-office anyway, so I'll ask a counter clerk there.
    Actually, I should go to the post-office too. I need to send a telegram and a few letters.
    We can go together then.
    All right, let's go! I must remember to buy some envelopes as well.
    Look, here is a pillar-box. You can put your letters there. It says that the next collection is
    at half past ten, that's just in five minutes.
    OK. Let me check if I wrote the name of the addressee on each letter. Oh, this one needs
    a stamp and I also forgot to write who the sender is.
