ЯЗ. реферирование и Аннотирование The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, to give it its formal title, is a highly centralised and unitary state, and its main component, England, has been so for almost a thousand years, longer than any other European country. As a political entity, however, Britain (as the United Kingdom is loosely called) is less than 300 years old, being the state which emerged from the union of the ancient kingdoms of Scotland and England in 1707. 1. Write out two examples of comparison / contrast sentences and underline the markers of comparison / contrast. 2. Write an expanded definition of Britain answering the question: What kind of state is it? 3. Find the false statement and correct it. a) England has been a unitary state longer than other European countries. b) The United Kingdom appeared as a result of the union of England and Ireland in 1707. c) The official name of Britain is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Parliament is the supreme legislative body of the state. Free from the constraints of a written constitution it may make any laws it pleases. It could even prolong its own life without consulting the electorate, if it chose to do so. Thus Parliament, rather than the will of the people, is clearly the real sovereign power in the state. The only guarantee against parliamentary tyranny is the sense of tradition and reasonableness of its members. 1. Write a formal definition of Parliament. 2. Rewrite the formal definition you have written as a naming definition. 3. Fill in the gaps with suitable linking words. (a) the government machinery is frequently referred, to (b) “Whitehall”, Parliament is known (c) “Westminster” (d) it is housed in the palace of Westminster. All British citizens (including citizens of the Irish Republic resident in the UK) may vote, provided they are aged eighteen or over, are registered, and are not disqualified by insanity, membership of the House of Lords or by being sentenced prisoners. Voting is not compulsory, and a general election normally attracts about 75 per cent of the electorate, a decline in participation of about 8 per cent since 1945. The candidate in a constituency who gains most votes is returned as Member to the Commons. In this ‘first-past-the-post’ system, other candidates, even if they come close to the winner, will not get a seat in Parliament. 1. Write out two examples of condition and underline the markers of condition. 2. List the conditions of which British citizen can vote. 3. Find the false statement and correct it. a) Members of the House of Lords can’t take part in a general election. b) Fewer people participate in general election nowadays then in the forties. c) Two candidates who gain most votes become MPs. The legal system for England and Wales (there are separate ones for Scotland and Northern Ireland) does not have a criminal or civil code, but is founded upon two basic elements: Acts of Parliament or statute law, and common law which is the outcome of past decisions and practices based upon custom and reason. Common law has been slowly built up since Anglo-Saxon times one thousand years ago, while Parliament has been enacting statutes since the thirteenth century. Generally speaking, almost all criminal law is now set out in Acts of Parliament, while the greater part of civil law still depends upon common law, the weight and guidance of previous similar decisions. 1. What sort of paragraph is it? a) description; b) comparison; c) classification; d) definition. 2. Fill in the boxes with suitable words and expressions. [pic] 3. Write a formal definition of common law. A Crown Court is presided over by a judge, but the verdict is reached by a jury of twelve citizens, randomly selected from the local electoral rolls. The judge must make sure that the trial is properly conducted, that the ‘counsels’ (barristers) for the prosecution and defense comply with the rules regarding the evidence that they produce and the examination of witnesses, and that the jury are helped to reach their decision by the judge’s summary of the evidence in a way which indicates on which they must decide in order to reach a verdict. Underlying the whole process lies the assumption that the person charged with an offence is presumed to be innocent unless the prosecution can prove guilt “beyond all reasonable doubt”. 1. Write a formal definition of a judge and a naming definition of a jury. 2. Write in suitable words. [pic] 3. Read these notes taken while reading the paragraph. Find the false statement and correct it. a) A Crown Court is presided over by a judge who makes sure that the trial is properly conducted. b) A jury is composed of twelve barristers, solicitors and senior judges. c) Underlying the British trial lies an assumption that the person charged with an offence is presumed to be innocent unless the prosecution can prove guilt “beyond all reasonable doubt”. A person convicted in a magistrates’ court may appeal against its decision to the Crown Court. An appeal against a decision of the Crown Court may be taken to the Court of Appeal (Criminal Division), but it is seldom successful. The Court of Criminal Appeal dislikes overturning a Crown Court decision unless the evidence is overwhelming or there has been some error of legal procedure. The highest court in the land is the House of Lords, which will consider a case referred from the Court of Appeal where a point of general public importance seems to be at stake. In practice the Lords are represented by five or more of the nine Law Lords. 1. Write in suitable words and expressions. appeal appeal appeal 2. List the conditions on which the Court of Criminal Appeal overturns a decision of a Crown Court. 3. Write a definition of the House of Lords answering the question: How does it function as a court? Many small businesses fail to survive, mainly as a result of poor management, but also because, compared with almost every other European Community member, Britain offers the least encouraging conditions. But such small businesses are important not only because large businesses grow from small ones, but also because over half the new jobs in Britain are created by firms employing fewer than 100 staff. 1. What sort of relationship is the paragraph concerned with? Prove your point of view: underline the markers of this relationship in the paragraph. 2. List the reasons why small businesses in Britain are not highly successful. 3. List the reasons why small businesses in Britain are important. The British population is already one of the oldest in Europe, and it is slowly getting older. In 1990 the median age in Britain was thirty-six but it will rise to forty-one by 2020. At the end of the 1990s the number of pensioners will begin to rise rapidly, and the workforce will shrink. One result will be that by 2020 there will be twice as many people aged eighty-five or over as in 1990. A disproportionate number of the old, incidentally, choose to retire to the south coast and east Anglia, creating regional imbalances. 1. What sort of report does the paragraph come form? 2. Fill in the table with the data form the paragraph. [pic] 3. Write out an example of comparison / contrast and underline the marker of comparison / contrast. The nuclear family is usually pictured as a married couple, with two children, ideally a girl and a boy, and perhaps their grandmother, or ‘granny’, in the background. As a picture of the way most British live, this become increasingly unrealistic each year. If the picture includes the traditional idea of the man going out to work while the wife stays at home, it is probably true of less than 10 per cent of the country. Even without such a limited definition, only 42 per cent of the population live in nuclear family households, and even within this group a considerable proportion of parents are in their second marriage with children from a previous marriage. 1. Complete the spidergraph. [pic] 2. Fill in the blanks with words from the paragraph. a) The traditional picture of a _____ British family becomes increasingly unrealistic every year. b) A lot of British parents are in their second ________ . c) The traditional idea of a family includes the man going out to work while his ______ keeps the house. 3. Find and correct the false statement. a) A traditional nuclear family can be rarely seen nowadays. b) The ideal picture of a nuclear family includes five people: a married couple and their three children. c) A considerable proportion of people are not in their first marriage with children from a previous marriage. Since the days of Shakespeare, the English of south east England has been considered the ‘standard’, for no better reason than that the south east is the region of economic and political power. The emergence of an upper and upper-middle-class mode of speech, ‘received pronunciation’ (RP), was systematically established through the public (in fact private) school system attended by the boys of wealthier families. RP persists as the accepted dialect of the national йlite. 1. What type of relationship do the underlined words express? 2. Write a naming definition of RP. 3. Find and correct the false statement. a) It is prestigious to speak RP. b) RP appeared on the base of the south-eastern accent. c) The south-eastern dialect is considered the standard because it is the closest to the language of Shakespeare. One of the most striking aspects of popular mainstream culture in Britain is the love of the countryside. Many people, whether they live in a suburban house or in a flat in a high-rise block, would say their dream home was a country cottage with roses growing over the door. As a nation, the British have made a mental retreat from the urban environment. They have a deep nostalgia for an idealised world of neat hedgerows, cottages and great country houses, surrounded by parkland, that clever eighteenth-century style of gardening that looked ‘natural’. The nostalgia stems partly from a sense of loss which has lingered since the Industrial Revolution two centuries ago, and from a romantic love of nature which has been such a powerful theme in English literature. 1. What sort of report does the paragraph come from? 2. Note-taking. List the reasons for the British nostalgia for rural life. 3. Which of the following is the part of “the English dream”? Roses, sky-scrapers, stately homes, big cars, computers, cottages, palm- trees, parks. A basic reason so many town dwellers wish to live in the suburbs is to have a garden in which to grow flowers. Indeed, many suburban houses imitate a cottage style. Even in the heart of London, its great parks, such as St. James, Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, are informal, recreating rural ideal, and city-dwelling children often know the names of wild flowers and birds. 1. Note-taking. Find the examples which prove that British town dwellers have a nostalgia for rural life. 2. Find the synonyms of the following words in the paragraph. a. resident b. country (adj.) c. сentre 3. Put the parts of a sentence in the correct order. of the countryside (A) aspect of popular mainstream (B) culture in Britain (C) one of the most striking (D) is the love (E) Over a century ago, the novelist Anthony Trollop listed the sports “essentially dear to the English nature”. These included hunting, shooting, rowing and horse racing. He was, of course, referring to the ‘gentleman class’, which through the public school system established football, rugby and cricket as national games. But hunting, rowing and horse racing, because of the expense involved, have remained primarily upper-class pastimes. Attendance at Henley Regatta, the high point of the rowing season, and Royal Ascot, for horse racing, remain the pinnacles of the upper class summer season. 1. Write out an example of cause / effect relationship and underline the marker of cause / effect. 2. Fill in the table with the data from the paragraph. [pic] 3. Note-taking. a. List the most popular sports in Britain in the XIX century. b. List the sports (included in 3a) which are still popular among the upper-class. Theatre is a powerful instrument … education as well as art and culture. Another significant feature of British theatre is the way … which actors have taken drama … young people, even into primary schools. This has broken … some of the traditional barriers … formal stage drama and the community. 1. Fill in the gaps in the paragraph with suitable prepositions. 2. Note-taking. List the significant features of modern British theatre. 3.Put the parts of a sentence in the correct order. that some of the most painful (A) the way we live (B) questions can be asked about (C) and as a community (D) it is on the stage (E) both as individuals (F) A Canadian touring Britain in 1989 discovered, in his own words, “There’s no such thing as the British, only English, Irish, Welsh and Scots”. There is considerable truth in his remark. The sense of difference from the English is more than a thousand years old. It dates from the time when Anglo-Saxon invaders from the European continent drove the Celtic people out of what we call England today and into what we now call Ireland, Scotland and Wales. In fact, almost one in five of today’s British is not English. 1. Complete the diagram. [pic] 2. Fill in the blanks with suitable words from the paragraph. a. Nowhere has the sense of conflict with the English been stronger than in Northern ___________ . b. The sense of _________ from the English is still strong in Scotland and Wales. c. Famous ________ festivals of literature and music are called eisteddfods. 3. Find and correct the false statement. a. the Scots, Welsh and Irish have a Celtic origin. b. The Anglo-Saxon invasion took place more than a thousand years ago. c. The Scots, Welsh and Irish like being called English. Schooling is compulsory for twelve years, for all children aged five to sixteen. There are two voluntary years of schooling thereafter. Children may attend either state-funded or fee-paying independent schools. In England and Wales the primary cycle lasts from five to eleven. Generally speaking, children enter infant school, moving on to junior school at the age eleven. Roughly 90 per cent of children receive their secondary education at ‘comprehensive’ schools. Secondary school lasts either until the end of the compulsory attendance cycle, or includes the two final years of secondary education, generally known in Britain (for historical reasons) as the ‘sixth form’. 1. Fill in the table with the data from the paragraph. [pic] 2. Find the antonyms of the following words in the paragraph. a. voluntary b. secondary c. to leave school 3. Find and correct the false statement. a. Independent schools are fee-paying. b. Children go to the sixth form after they have finished infant school and junior school. c. Comprehensive is the most widely spread sort of school in England and Wales. Nevertheless, there are approximately 130 daily and Sunday papers, 1,800 weekly papers and over 7,000 periodical publications. More newspapers, proportionately, are sold in Britain than almost any other country. On average, two out of three persons over the age of fifteen read a national morning newspaper. Three out of four read a Sunday paper. The national newspapers, both on weekdays and on Sundays, fall into two broad categories: the ‘popular’ and ‘quality’ press. 1. What type of paragraph is it: definition, description, classification, argumentation? 2. Make a tree diagram to illustrate the classification of the British national newspapers. 3. What do the following numbers refer to? Answer in full sentences. a. ѕ b. 130 c. 15 In 1936 the government established the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) to provide a public service in radio. Since then the BBC has been most affected by the invention of television, which changed the entertainment habits of the nation, and the establishment of independent and commercial radio and television, which removed the BBC’s broadcasting monopoly. 1. What sort of relationship do the underlined words express? The government established the BBC to provide a public service in radio. 2. Note-taking. List the events which have had the greatest influence on the BBC since it was established. 3. Find and write out two examples of time relationship and underline the time indicators. Television is the single most popular form … entertainment in Britain. … the late 1980s the average adult spent twenty-five hours, and children eighteen hours, … the television set each week. They had four channels to choose …: BBC1 and BBC2, ITV (Independent Television) and Channel Four. Channel Four, which was established in 1982, specialises …. minority interest programmes, but has proved highly successful. 1. Fill in the gaps with the suitable prepositions. 2. Find and correct the false statement. a. Adults watch television less than children. b. Television is the most popular pastime in Great Britain. c. Channel Four is successful. 3. Note-taking. List the TV channels available in Great Britain. Had the First World War been lost, Britain, like Russia, Austria and Germany, might well have lost its monarchy. In fact, the monarchy emerged from this trial strengthened as the anchor of the nation. George V attended the first football Cup Final at Wembley and made skilful use of radio to become a truly popular monarch. George VI made the monarchy yet more popular by his refusal to leave London during air attacks on the capital during the Second World War. By remaining in Buckingham Palace after it was itself hit, and by tours of the most badly bombed parts of London, George VI and his consort, Elizabeth (the Queen Mother), became the most loved people of Britain. 1. Which relationship does the underlined word express? Britain, like Russia, Austria and Germany, might well have lost its monarchy. 2. Find and correct the false statement. a. Britain is still a monarchy. b. Queen Elisabeth II ruled Britain during the Second World War. c. King George VI stayed in London during air attacks on the capital. 3. Complete the diagram with the words. George V, London, Queen Mother, air attacks, Buckingham Palace, the First World War, Consort, Capital, football Cup Final. [pic] Whenever you see an old film, even one made as little as ten years ago, you cannot help being struck by the appearance of the women taking part. Their hair-styles and make-up look dated; their skirts look either too long or to short; their general appearance is, in fact, slightly ludicrous. The men taking part in the film, on the other hand, are clearly recognisable. There is nothing about their appearance to suggest that they belong to an entirely different age. 1. Complete the table. [pic] 2. Write comparative sentences using the words. a. men, women, fashion-conscious. b. men’s, women’s change, fashions, quickly. 3. Find and write out an example of contrast. Underline the marker of contrast. Old people are always saying that the young are not what were. The same comment is make from generation to generation and it is always true. It has never been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom. They grow up more quickly and are not so dependent on their parents. They think more for themselves and do not blindly accept the ideals of their elders. Events which the older generation remembers vividly are nothing more than past history. This is as it should be. Every new generation is different from the one that preceded it. Today the difference is very marked indeed. 1. Write the opposites. a. the same. b. false. c. to follow. 2. Write the words to match the definitions. a. The whole body of people born at the same time. b. An important thing that once happened. c. Personal liberty and independence. 3. Note-taking. List the points in which the young generation is different from the one the preceded it. It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man’s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognisable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They swear, they are ill-mannered and aggressive, wilful as two-year-olds and utterly selfish. All their hidden frustrations, disappointments and jealousies seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving. 1. Find and write out an example of comparison. Underline the marker of comparison. 2. Complete the table. Qualities brought out by the act of driving. [pic] 3. Paraphrase the sentences using the words in brackets. a. A man’s worst qualities become visible when he is driving. (bring out) b. It’s hard to recognize a man when he is behind a steering-wheel. (unrecognizable) We live in a materialistic society and are trained from our earliest years to be acquisitive. Our possessions, ‘mine’ and ‘yours’ are clearly labelled from early childhood. When we grow old enough to earn a living, it does not surprise us to discover that success is measured in terms of the money you earn. We spend the whole of our lives keeping up with our neighbours, the Joneses. If we buy a new television set, Jones is bound to buy a bigger and better one. If we buy a new car, we can sure that Jones will go one better and get two new cars: one for his wife and one for himself. The most amusing thing about this game is that the Joneses and all the neighbours who are struggling frantically to keep up with them are spending borrowed money kindly provided, at a suitable rate of interest, of course, by friendly banks, insurance companies, etc. 1. Find and write out two examples of condition relationship. Underline the markers of condition. 2. The expression ‘to keep up with the Joneses’ is an idiom. Explain its meaning. 3. Find and correct the false statement. a. Our society is materialistic. b. We measure success in terms of the money we earn. c. People spend the money they have saved. You will say that is one thing to exercise censorship where children are concerned and quite another to do the same for adults. Children need protection and it is the parents’ responsibility to provide it. But what about adults? Aren’t they old enough to decide what is good for them? The answer is that many adults are, but don’t make the mistake of thinking that all adults are like yourself. Censorship is for the good of society as a whole. Highly civilised people might find it possible to live amicably together without laws of any kind: they would just rely on good sense to solve their problems. But imagine what chaos there would be if we lived in a society without laws! Like the law, censorship contributes to the common good. 1. Find and write out the sentence where law and censorship are compared. Underline the marker of comparison. 2. Fill in the gaps with the words from the paragraph. a. It’s the parents’ _______ to protect their children from undesired influence. b. Only highly _______ people can live relying on common sense and not laws. c. There would be ______ if there were no laws. 3. Put the parts of the sentence in the correct order. A. that censorship does is B. by corrupting the minds of others C. to prevent certain people D. one of the great things E. from making fat profits It is a fallacy to suppose that all men are equal and that society will be levelled out if you provide every body with the same educational opportunities. (It is debatable whether you can ever provide everyone with the same educational opportunities, but that is another question.) The fact is that nature dispenses brains and ability with a total disregard for the principle of equality. The old rules of the jungle, ‘survival of the fittest’, and ‘might is right’ are still with us. The spread of education has destroyed the old class system and created a new one. Rewards are based on merit. For ‘aristocracy’ read ‘meritocracy’; in other respects, society remains unaltered: the class system is rigidly maintained. 1. Find and write out an example of condition relationship. Underline the marker of condition. 2. Translate into Russian. a. Nature dispenses brains and ability with a total disregard for the principle of equality. b. It is debatable whether you can ever provide everyone with the same educational opportunities. 3. Write the words to match the definitions. a. Government by persons selected according to their results in competition. b. To distribute among a number of people. c. The same in size, value, degree, rank etc. In societies wholly dedicated to the principle of social equality, privileged private education is forbidden. But even here people are rewarded according to their abilities. In fact, so great is the need for skilled workers that the least able may be neglected. Bright children are carefully and expensively trained to become future rulers. In the end, all political ideologies boil down to the same thing: class divisions persist whether you are ruled by a feudal king or an educated peasant. 1. Write a definition of private education. 2. Which type of relationship does the underlined word express? In some societies private education is forbidden. But even here people are rewarded according to their abilities. 3. Paraphrase the sentences using the words in brackets. a. So great is the need for skilled workers that the least able may be neglected. (because) b. Class divisions persist whether you are ruled by feudal king or an educated peasant. (to destroy) English has become a world language because of its establishment as a mother tongue outside England, in all the continents of the world.

The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. This is one of the chief functions of satire and irony. Human pain and suffering are so grim; we hover so often on the brink of war; political realities are usually enough to plunge us into total despair. In such circumstances, cartoons and satirical accounts of sombre political events redress the balance. They take the wind out of pompous and arrogant politicians who have lost their sense of proportion. They enable us to see that many of our most profound actions are merely comic or absurd. We laugh when a great satirist like Swift writes about war in Gulliver’s Travels. The Lilliputians and their neighbours attack each other because they can’t agree which end to break an egg. We laugh because we are meant to laugh; but we are meant to weep too. It is no wonder that in totalitarian regimes any satire against the Establishment is wholly banned. It is too powerful a weapon to be allowed to flourish. 1. Identify the controlling idea. 2. Is the following an example of argumentation? Carry out the for /so test. Political fanatics lock humour.

We are often told that technological know-how, acquired in attempting to get us into orbit, will be utilised to make life better on earth. But what has the space race done to relieve the suffering of the earth’s starving millions? In what way has it raised the standard of living of any one of us? As far as the layman is concerned, the practical results of all this expenditure of money and effort are negligible. Thanks to space research, we can now see television pictures transmitted live half- way across the globe and the housewife can use non-stick frying-pans in the kitchen. The whole thing becomes utterly absurd when you think that no matter what problems man overcomes, it is unlikely that he will ever be able to travel even to the nearest star. 1.

In the old days, large armies were essential. There was strength in numbers; ordinary soldiers were cannon fodder. But in these days of inter-continental ballistic missiles, of push-button warfare and escalation, unskilled manpower has become redundant.

Write the words to match the definitions. a. compulsory enlistment for military service b. state of war c. to be no longer needed 3. Complete the table. Armies [pic] Camping has so much to offer. You enjoy absolute freedom. You have none of the headaches of advance hotel booking or driving round and round a city at midnight looking for a room. There are no cold hotel breakfasts, no surly staff to tip. For a ludicrously small sum, you can enjoy comforts which few hotels could provide. Modern camping sites are well equipped with hot and cold running water and even shops and dance floors! Low-cost holidays make camping an attractive proposition.

When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By travelling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveller on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him travelling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound, satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travellers. 1.

The judge must make sure that the trial is properly conducted, that the ‘counsels’ (barristers) for the prosecution and defense comply with the rules regarding the evidence that they produce and the examination of witnesses, and that the jury are helped to reach their decision by the judge’s summary of the evidence in a way which indicates on which they must decide in order to reach a verdict.

Although seat belts have been shown to save lives, people give a number of reasons for not using them. First, many people think they are a nuisance. They say the belt is uncomfortable and inhibits freedom of movement. Second, many people are lazy. For them it is too much trouble to put on and adjust a seat belt, especially if they are only going a short distance. Third, some people don’t believe they will have an accident because they are careful and experienced drivers. They think they will be able to respond quickly to avoid a crash. Finally, some people are afraid the seat belt will trap them in their car. If they have an accident, they might not be able to get out of a car that is burning, or they might be unconscious and another person won’t be able to get them out.

While on the one hand society provides them with better educational facilities, on the other it does its best to exclude them from the jobs that really matter. There are exceptions, of course. Some young people do manage to break through the barrier despite the restrictions, but the great majority have to wait patiently for years before they can really give full rein to their abilities. This means that, in most fields, the views of young people are never heard because there is no one to represent them.

For example, the upper and upper middle classes tend to dress ‘safely’ in the well tried styles of the past fifty years or so. During the 1980s this style appealed to a wider clientele which, inspired by the romance of the upper classes, particularly by the Royal Wedding (Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer) in 1981, began to imitate them.

When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By travelling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveller on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him travelling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound, satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travellers. 1.

I mean, different people have different opinions, obviously, and it doesn’t matter whether you ask people here or outside, they all have their own opinions about whether it’s a good idea or not. And since you get so many different opinions, it’s not easy for a committee to come to a final decision, but we have done what we think is right, and we hope that if anybody is not completely happy, they won’t take our ideas personally. Since 1976 everybody in this firm has worked 40 hours per week – previous to that the total was 44 hours for some people and 42,5 for others - and we have no intention of changing the total. In any case, a change in the total number of hours would only be possible after proper negotiations between management and union representatives, and this is not the place to anticipate any such negotiations in the near or distant future. This report concerns the feasibility of allowing members of staff to start and stop work at the times that suit them best; the obvious proviso is, of course, that everyone should still work a total of 40 hours per week, as we do now. The suggestion of flexible working hours was put forward to the directors by certain members of staff, particularly those who have young children at school. 1. Identify the controlling idea. 2.

РЕФЕРИРОВАНИЕ И АННОТИРОВАНИЕ Билет № 20 19) Large modern cities are too big to control. They impose their own living conditions on the people who inhabit them. City-dwellers are obliged by their environment to adopt a wholly unnatural way of life. They lose touch with the land and rhythm of nature. It is possible to live such an air-conditioned existence in a large city that you are barely conscious of the seasons. A few flowers in a public park (if you have the time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are at a premium. Tall buildings blot out the sun. Traffic fumes pollute the atmosphere. Even the distinction between day and night is lost. The flow of traffic goes on unceasingly and the noise never stops. 1.
