Text 1

Once a sailor went ashore on the coast of South America. He had a number of blue woollen caps with him, which he wanted to sell. On his way to the town some distance from the coast, he had to pass through a forest in which there were great numbers of monkeys. At noon, with the sun directly overhead and the heat intense, the sailor decided to take a rest. He lay down under the shade of a large tree, took one of the caps, put it on his head, and soon fell asleep.

When he awoke, he found, to his surprise, that the caps were all gone! Soon he heard a loud noise among the thick branches above him, and he looked up. He saw the trees alive with monkeys, and on the head of each monkey was a blue woollen cap! The monkey had watched his actions, had stolen his caps while he slept and had put them on, and now they did not pay any attention to his shouts.

When the sailor saw that he could not get his caps back, he pulled off the one that he had on his head and threw it on the ground, crying out, «If you want to keep the rest, you may take this one too!» To his great surprise, the little animals did the same. Each took the cap off its head and threw it on the ground. The sailor got his caps back and went away in triumph.

I’m Sofi, and I was born in Parakar, Armenia. I just moved back to Armenia after living in America for three years. Currently, I’m studying programming because I’m really into math and English. But I also really want to study music or movie production because that is something I’m really interested in. I’ve been studying English for about 7–8 years, and after living in America for three years, English became my first language.

I have a lot of hobbies, like crocheting, reading, writing, listening to music, dancing, and even more. But there are things that I hate doing, like cooking and sports. I was just never good at those kinds of things. When it comes to my personality, I think I’m a really introverted person when I’m not with my people, and I’m also an overthinker about everything. But the good thing about myself is that I’m really organized, and if I see that someone is struggling with something, I would help them no matter what.

I feel like moving to America really changed me in a better way. It helped me become more open-minded and understand that everyone is different and deserves to be accepted, no matter their skin color, culture, or background. It also changed my personality, my style, and even my taste in music. Overall, I feel like it helped me discover a better version of myself.

I have had many people who have motivated me throughout my life. Some of the most important people are my parents, Billie Eilish, Tyler, the Creator, Taehyung, Namjoon, and some more of my favorite singers. Overall, I think all of my experiences, interests, hobbies, and the people around me have helped shape me into the person I am today.

1. Walt Disney was born in 1901 in Chicago, but soon moved to a
2. small farm near Marceline, Missouri. From this rural and rather humble
3. beginning, he later became one of the most famous and beloved
4. motion-picture producers in history. Although he died in 1966, his
5. name and artistic legacy continue to influence the lives of millions of
6. people throughout the world.
7. After several years of barely making ends meet as a cartoon artist
8. operating from his Los Angeles garage, Disney had his first success in
9. 1928, with his release of Mickey Mouse cartoon. Throughout the next
10. decade, he continued to produce a number of cartoons, and developed
11. more of his highly profitable and enduring creations, such as Donald
12. Duck and Pluto. In the late 1930s, he issued the first full-length
13. cartoon film. Snow White became an instant commercial and critical
14. success. This was only the first of many films, both animated and not,
15. produced by Disney and his studio.
16. But as renowned as Disney name is for cartoons and movies, it is
17. probably best known for a string of spectacular amusement and theme
18. parks. Starting with California‟s Disneyland in 1955 and culminating
19. with the fantastically successful Disney World and EPCOT Center in
20. Florida, Disney became a household name. In recent years, the theme
21. park concept has become international, with openings in Tokyo and
22. Paris. With the continuing success of Disney, the creation of future
23. theme parks is under discussion.

Alan didn’t dress up because he prefers casual clothes. He asked his friend Terry to pick him up and drop him off at work. He took him part of the way and Alan got on a bus. But he felt sick and thought he would pass out. He got off and walked and then ran into Amanda Mathews.

Run out of — to have no more of something

This morning, I wanted some toast but I’d run out of bread. So, I rushed out of the house and got into the car. I turned the key but the car didn’t start — I’d run out of petrol! I ran down the road to the shop but they’d run out of sliced bread. I decided to buy some rolls instead. Then I realised I’d run out of money. I’m always doing it and the shopkeeper has run out of patience with me. I came home, looked at the clock and saw that I’d run out of time for breakfast.

You can run out of food, most substances and materials, time, money, patience and luck.

What have you ever run out of?

Put off — postpone doing something

It’s my own fault — I’m always putting things off. I don’t like shopping so I put off going to the shops. I hate filling up the car with petrol so I put off going to the petrol station. I hate queuing so I put off going to the bank and now I’ve got toothache because I’ve been putting off going to the dentist for weeks.

You can put off doing most things — although it’s not a good habit!

What things do you put off?

Get back — to return

Although, I have got an excuse; I only got back last night. I’d been away on holiday and the flight got back late and it was even later by the time I got back to the house. I can tell you, I wasn’t exactly looking forward to getting back to work.

You get back to a place or activity.

Hold up — delay

The problem is that there was a hold up with my flight coming back. First of all, we were held up at the airport because of a storm and no flights could take off. Then we were held up waiting for other flights to take off. Finally, we were held up at the airport when we got back because the baggage carousel was broken. It was just one hold up after another. As you can see, hold up also exists as a noun. Apart from the meaning of delay, it can also mean stopped by a robber. Joke: a man goes to town and comes back two hours later. When he returns his wife says, ‘You’ve been a long time.’‘Yes, sorry,’he says, ‘I was held up at the bank!’

Break down — stop working

Oh, I nearly forgot, on the way home the taxi broke down. Can you believe my luck? Fortunately, we didn’t have to wait too long for the breakdown recovery vehicle to arrive but I was still worried; I don’t have any luck with mechanical things. Before I went on holiday my car, my computer and my printer all broke down. Has anything broken down on you lately?

Give in — to stop fighting, admit defeat

I used to get annoyed about it but now I just give in. With technology, I can’t win so I might as well give in. It’s like when Terry asks me stupid questions, like what’s the capital of Guatemala? ‘I don’t know,’I say, ‘I give in.’ Do you give in or fight back?

Show off — to boast and display

Oh well, I don’t care. I can’t wait to get back to work and show off my tan and the photos of the beautiful beach. There’s even a picture of me standing next to a Ferrari. I pretended it was mine — just to show off! You can also be a show off. What do you show off about? Nothing? I believe you!

Now summarise Chapter

1. Alan ran out of bread because he put off going to the shops. He hadn’t been shopping because he got back late. The flight was late because it was held up by a storm. He was also late because his taxi broke down. He doesn’t have much luck with technology so he finds it’s easier just to give in. Anyway, he doesn’t care because he can show off his tan.
