He passed 6, which was good but he failed maths. His worst result was physics - he got a grade E,which was terrible. After that he went to a sixth form college where he worked hard and did well.

My least favourite modern invention is the television, and my favourite is the radio. A televis
ion controls you and stops you from doing things,but when you're listening to a radio, you
can do all sorts of things: cooking, reading and you can listen to it anywhere. In the car, at
work, riding your bike, walking in the country. It's brilliant.
My favourite invention is very simple. It's good for your health and it's good for the environ
ment, itis fast and it is cheap to use. It's the bicycle. Everyone should have one.
My least favourite modern invention is the computer. I mean, sometimes I hate it. I want to
pick it up and throw it out of the window, but I can't do without it. The internet let's me keep in touch with everyone, which is great ' cause I don't like talking over the phone.

3.A lucky sign 4.Some tips 5.Places without rainbows 6. A personal vision 7. A bridge between worlds 8. Impossible to catch
A. Two people never see the same
rainbow. Each person sees a different one. It
happens because the raindrops are
constantly moving so the rainbow is always
changing too. Each time you see a
rainbow it is unique and it will never be the
same! In addition, everyone sees
colours differently according to the light and
how their eyes interpret it.
B. A rainbow is an optical
phenomenon that is seen in the atmosphere. It appears
in the sky when the sun’s light is
reflected by the raindrops. A rainbow always
appears during or immediately after
showers when the sun is shining and the
air contains raindrops. As a result,
a spectrum of colours is seen in the sky. It
takes the shape of a multicoloured
arc.
C. Many cultures see the rainbow as
a road, a connection between earth and
heaven (the place where God lives).
Legends say that it goes below the earth at
the horizon and then comes back up
again. In this way it makes a permanent
link between what is above and
below, between life and death. In some myths
the rainbow is compared to a
staircase connecting earth to heaven.
D. We all believe that the rainbow
is arch-shaped. The funny thing is that it's
actually a circle. The reason we
don’t see the other half of the rainbow is
because we cannot see below the
horizon. However, the higher we are above
the ground, the more of the
rainbow’s circle we can see. That is why, from an
airplane in flight, a rainbow will
appear as a complete circle with the shadow of
the airplane in the centre.
E. In many cultures there is a
belief that seeing a rainbow is good. Legends say
that if you dig at the end of a
rainbow, you'll find a pot of gold. Rainbows are
also seen after a storm, showing
that the weather is getting better, and there is
hope after the storm. This is why
they are associated with rescue and good
fortune. If people happen to get
married on such a day, it is said that they will
enjoy a very happy.
F. You can never reach the end of a
rainbow. A rainbow is all light and water. It is
always in front of you while your
back is to the sun. As you move, the rainbow
that your eye sees moves as well and
it will always ‘move away’ at the same
speed that you are moving. No matter
how hard you try, a rainbow will always
be as far away from you as it was
before you started to move towards it.
G. To see a rainbow you have to
remember some points. First, you should be
standing with the sun behind you.
Secondly, the rain should be in front of you.
The most impressive rainbows appear
when half of the sky is still dark with
clouds and the other half is clear.
The best time to see a rainbow is on a warm
day in the early morning after
sunrise or late afternoon before sunset. Rainbows
are often seen near waterfalls and
fountains. 9 Form 2016 ( Test Speaking )
№1. School
(What is your typical day like ? What is your favourite subject and why ? What do you like most about your school? )
It takes all sorts of schools. I think that my school is better than a lot of others ( I attend Gymnasia №25). Well, let me tell you about my school day.
I start school at 9 o'clock. A lesson is 45 minutes. We also have double lessons. My favourite lesson is science because I like to find out how things work. Lunch time is at half past twelve in my school. Most kids have school dinners, which are usually nice. After lunchtime we have more lessons like technology for example. Another lesson is PE. We do differerent sports there. I love gymnastics because I can do jumps and spins. My school finishes at half past fourteen. Some pupils go to after school clubs. As for me I go to music club to play the guitar.
School is O'K. I learn different things and meet my frinds there.
№2.About your school. ( 1. How long does it take you to do your homework? 2.What subjects do you usually start with and why? 3.Schould schoolchildren be given more or less homework and why?
When at school I go to all the lessons and do my homework. I usually don't spend so much time on doing homework because I go to after school music club to play the guitar. I always start doing my homework with the subjects which seem easier such as languages and math then I write essays and do tests.I should do this so that I can go to university when I am older. Teachers say I don't work hard and that is why my results aren't fantastic. However, I am good at maths, history, geography music and sport.
I would like to study at a school where the teachers don't give too much homework because homework is boring and makes school education challenging.
3. Books (Is reading still popular with teenagers and why or why not.What kind of books do you like reading? Why do many people prefer e-books to paper books? )
Reading is great!
You see everybody in my class is fond of reading that's why I think reading is still popular with teenagers. My classmates share the opinion that reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.And they do a lot of reading.They read from school books,on the Internet ,they read books ( for example Harry Potter series).
My dad often says to me : Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. I share the point and so do many teens, I believe. Yes, reading is popular with teenagers, they do a lot of it: , they read from school books,on the Internet ,they read books ( for example Harry Potter series). You see, they have various reading preferences as well as everybody in my family does.
My dad loves bestsellers, especially detective stories and my mum reads historical novels. I love fantasy, horror and science fiction, but I read anything. The last book i read was "Три Мушкетера" I read it last week. I chose this book because I saw the film. The main characters are Atos, Portos, Aramis, D'Artanian. It's an adventure book. The main characters helped the king (Ludovig 14) and the queen. The book had a happy ending. I enjoyed the book more than I expected. I would recommend this book.
As for e-books, they are cheaper and more comfortable to use than paper books that is why they are so popular. Besides, they help to increase teen's interest in reading which will never be lost.
4.My career choice.( what job do you want to do in the future;
· what two subjects do you think are the most important for your future job, and why;
· do your family approve of your career choice or not.)
Nowadays there are many kinds of jobs, so there is a
lot of choice out there.
As for my career choice, being an architect is the
most suitable job for me since I am keen on buildings. Besides, I know that there
will be many different career opportunities when I get my qualification. As a
qualified architect I can design buildings, work as an architectural journalist
or even as an architectural historian. The good news is that I can earn a comfortable salary.
While at school, I need to study maths. Art courses in
drawing, design and photography will also be helpful. Added to that, history,
English and computer studies will all be needed if I want to do my job well.
My family approve of my career choice since my granddad
used to be an architect.
5. The Internet.
(1. Why using the Internet is so popular? 2. How can the Internet help students in their studies? 3.Сan the Internet be dangerous and why?)
Indeed, the Internet is quite popular nowadays since millions of peopie
use the Internet doing different things online: they send emails, watch videos online,people have profiles on websites like Facebook to communicate, In fact, people spend o lot of time online.
As for our school studies, the Internet is really helpful for doing a project at school. Sure you can find information for your project in one second.
On the other hand the Internet can be dangerous because of some harmful sites.

2. What do you do to keep fit?
3. What sports activities are popular with teenagers in
your region?
Nowadays people seem crazy about having a healthy lifestyle.
To be in
perfect shape, I spend much time outdoors and eat a healthy diet. In fact, I am
a healthy eating fan, so I eat much fruit and vegetables but at night I dream of eating loads of fast food:
tasty cheeseburgers drive me mad but in the morning I eat porridge for
breakfast and feel quite happy.
To keep
fit, I also take some exercises. I enjoy such sports activities as swimming,
playing basketball, cross country skiing and skating. I am pretty sure these
activities are popular with other teens in my region as well.
To conclude, (I can say for sure) those people are having a healthy lifestyle who are responsible for
their health.

A talk about the place where
you live.
Remember to say:
-What is your town famous
for?
-What is your favourite
place in the city? Why do you like it?
-Are you going to stay in
your city after leaving school or move to another place?
Towns and cities
come in all shapes and sizes. I love my hometown Revda – a small town in the
Urals region.
I guess my
hometown is famous for its big and interesting museum- Demidov Centre where you
can get to know the unique history of Revda. Kabalinskiye springs is one more
favourite place of mine . It is very popular in spring and summer. My family
like to go to picnic there. In winter we enjoy cross –country skiing in the
forest.
I can’t imagine
living somewhere in another place that’s why I plan to come back after
graduating from the university.
I hope living in
my native town my entire life will make me happy.
