Max: Hi guys! I’ve just bought a new e-book reader. It’s so cool! I have hundreds of books in my pocket now. Which do you prefer: e-books or classic print books?
Anna: I definitely prefer print books. For me, the smell of paper and the feeling of turning pages are very important. I love seeing my books on the bookshelves in my room. It feels more "real," don't you think? Shkola.in.ua
Denys: I’m somewhere in the middle. I like print books for studying because I can make notes easily. But for traveling, e-books are much better. They are light, and you can change the font size if your eyes are tired.
Max: That’s exactly why I like e-books! You don't need a lamp to read at night because the screen is bright. Also, it’s better for nature because we save trees.
Anna: I understand, but e-books need charging. If your battery dies, your story ends! Plus, a beautiful print book is a great gift. You can't really "gift" a digital file the same way.
Denys: You both are right. Print books are great for the soul and home libraries, but e-books are about comfort and modern reality. Maybe the best way is to have both!
Max: Agree! The most important thing is that we still enjoy reading, no matter the format.

10: Find several blurbs for 3-4 books on the Internet. Decide which blurb attracts you to each book the most. Explain your choice. Знайдіть декілька анотацій для 3-4 книг в інтернеті. Поясніть, яка анотація найбільш приваблива для кожної книги. Поясніть свій вибір.
1. "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins
Blurb: In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem. Every year, the Capitol forces its twelve districts to send one boy and one girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen steps forward to take her sister's place. But winning means making choices that weigh survival against humanity.
2. "Wonder" by R.J. Palacio
Blurb: August Pullman was born with a facial difference that, up until now, has prevented him from going to a mainstream school. Starting 5th grade at Beecher Prep, he wants nothing more than to be treated as an ordinary kid but his new classmates can’t get past his extraordinary face. A story about kindness, courage, and friendship. Shkola in ua
3. "The Hobbit" by J.R.R. Tolkien
Blurb: Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on his doorstep to whisk him away on a journey 'there and back again.' They have a plot to raid the treasure hoard guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon.
The blurb for "The Hunger Games" is the most attractive to me because it creates an intense atmosphere and a high-stakes conflict right from the start. I am impressed by the main character’s sacrifice for her sister, and the phrase "survival against humanity" makes me want to find out how the story ends. While the other blurbs are interesting, this one feels the most modern and exciting for a reader of my age.

Zendaya’s Lifestyle: A Day in the Life of a Star
Zendaya is a world-famous American actress, singer, and dancer. She is well-known for her roles in movies like Spider-Man and the series Euphoria. She is a very busy person with a very successful career.
Zendaya has a very fast-paced lifestyle, especially when she is filming a movie. She usually wakes up early, around 7:00 or 8:00 am, to start her day. Her timetable is often full of filming, photo shoots, and interviews. She can work for more than 12 hours a day. She always takes a break to eat and socialise with her team on set. After work, she likes to go home, relax, and spend time with her dog, Noon. She usually goes to bed around 11:00 pm. Shkola.in.ua
Zendaya tries to keep some healthy habits, although her schedule is difficult. She is a vegetarian and does not eat meat, but she sometimes eats "junk food" like ice cream or ramen. She is a professional dancer, so she is used to being active and moving a lot every day. She loves to draw and listen to music to stay relaxed and avoid being stressed. Interestingly, she does not drink coffee because it doesn't help her energy.
I think Zendaya's lifestyle is very interesting but also quite hard. I admire that she works so much and still finds time for her hobbies. However, I wouldn't want to have such a busy timetable every day because it's easy to overwork. I prefer a more rural or quiet way of life where I have more free time.
9: Ask your friend and report back to the class.
1 Do you usually go to bed late?
– Yes, I usually go to bed around midnight because I like to play games or chat with friends.
2 Is it hard for you to get out of bed in the morning?
– Yes, it is very hard. I often feel tired because I overslept or didn't get enough sleep.
3 Do you use social networks or watch TV late at night? Shkola.in.ua
– I am used to using social networks and watching videos on my phone late at night.
4 Are you often in a bad mood in the morning?
– Sometimes I am in a bad mood because I have a headache when I don't sleep enough.
5 Do you think your classes start too early in the morning?
– Yes, I think 8:00 am is too early for my daily routine.
6 What would be a good time for you to start school? Why?
– A good time would be 10:00 or 11:00 am because then I can wake up later and feel better.
I interviewed my friend Maksym about his lifestyle. Here is my report:
Maksym usually goes to bed late because he uses social networks or watches movies at night. As a result, it is very hard for him to get out of bed in the morning. He is often in a bad mood because he feels tired or has a headache.
Maksym thinks that his classes start too early. In his opinion, a good time to start school would be 11:00 am. This way, he could have a better daily routine and more energy for lessons.
10: Agree or disagree with the statements below. Discuss them with your partner. Give examples to illustrate your opinion. Погодьтеся
не погодьтеся з наведеними нижче твердженнями. Обговоріть
Наведіть приклади, що ілюструють вашу
1 Teenagers eat too many unhealthy snacks.
– I agree. Many teenagers prefer junk food because it is tasty and easy to buy. For example, like Alison in our lesson, some students skip breakfast because they oversleep and then eat snacks at school to feel better. Instead of healthy nutrients, they choose crisps or sweets.
2 Parents are to blame when children eat too much fast food. Shkola.in.ua
– I partly disagree. Parents should buy healthy food, but teenagers also make their own choices. For example, even if parents provide a good dinner, a student might go to a fast-food restaurant with friends. However, parents should teach children about the digestive system and why fast food is bad.
3 A lot of people eat their dinner and watch TV at the same time.
– I agree. This is a very common habit nowadays. Many busy people watch their favourite shows or films in the evening while they have dinner. The problem is that when we watch TV, we don't focus on our food, which can be bad for our health.
4 Not many people sit down together and eat as a family.
– I disagree. In many families, having a meal together is a tradition. Even if people are busy with a fastpaced lifestyle, they usually try to have dinner together to talk about their day.
5 Cooking could be one of the school subjects.
– I strongly agree. I think it is a great idea because cooking is an essential skill. If we have cooking classes, students can learn how to prepare healthy meals with many nutrients instead of buying readymade food. It would help us to overcome the habit of eating junk food.
11: Work in pairs. Think about a healthy lifestyle. Note the points that are important to live a healthy, happy and long life. Make a list of The Rules of a Healthy Lifestyle' and present it in class.
The Rules of a Healthy Lifestyle
– Eat a balanced diet: Make sure your meals are full of nutrients like vitamins and minerals.
– Have breakfast every day: Do not skip the first meal of the day, or you might get a headache or feel tired at school. Shkola.in.ua
– Drink plenty of water: It is essential for your digestive system and overall health.
– Avoid junk food: Try to stop eating too many unhealthy snacks and fast food.
– Stay active: Be used to doing sport in your free time, such as swimming, jogging, or playing football.
– Follow a strict daily routine: Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day to have more energy.
– Limit screen time: Spending too much time on gadgets can be bad for your eyes and back.
– Get enough sleep: Try to sleep at least 8 hours a night so you are not in a bad mood in the morning.
– Socialise with friends: Spending time with people face-to-face helps you to be relaxed and not stressed.
– Spend time outdoors: A rural environment or a simple walk in the park is great for your mental health.
12: Do your project.
Project Report: Healthy Lifestyle in My Class
I interviewed 10 students from my class about their daily routine and habits. Here are the results:
– Daily Routine: Most students (7 out of 10) are used to waking up at 7:30 am. However, almost everyone thinks that school starts too early.
– Eating Habits: Only 4 students have a healthy breakfast every morning. The others often skip breakfast and eat unhealthy snacks like crisps or sweets during breaks. Shkola.in.ua
– Sport and Activities: 6 students are very active. They are used to doing sport in their free time, such as football, dancing, or swimming.
– Gadgets and Sleep: 8 students spend more than 3 hours a day on their gadgets. Many of them go to bed late because they chat with friends online. As a result, they often feel tired or have a headache in class.
Conclusion: I think my classmates should try to overcome their bad habits. They need to eat more food with nutrients, spend less time on gadgets, and get more sleep to be happy and healthy.

POPULATION OF AUSTRALIA
The original inhabitants of Australia are the Aborigines, who have lived on the continent for about 40,000 years. However, since the 18th century, many people from Europe and other parts of the world have moved there. Today, Australia is a very multicultural country. The main ethnic groups are English, Australian, Irish, Scottish, Italian, and Chinese. There is also a growing number of immigrants from India and Vietnam. The population of Australia today is about 27 million people. Most people live in big cities along the coast, like Sydney and Melbourne, because the center of the country is a very dry desert.

Canada is the second-largest country in the world, but its population is only about 41 million. What makes them special is their multiculturalism. Unlike some countries where everyone tries to be the same, Canada is like a 'mosaic' where every culture keeps its own 'colour'. If you meet a Canadian, you will notice they are incredibly polite. They value personal space, wait patiently in lines, and love to talk about the weather. They are also very active. In the winter, almost everyone plays or watches ice hockey, and in the spring, they visit 'sugar shacks' to eat fresh maple syrup on snow. Canadians are very protective of their nature. With beautiful places like the Rocky Mountains and Niagara Falls, they spend a lot of time outdoors. So, if you want to be like a Canadian, remember to be kind, stay active, and always say 'please' and 'thank you'! Shkola.in.ua
