4. a

Take in with a pinch of salt - having a critical attitude a grain of truth - a little bit of truth cut and dried - straightforward give him any credit at all - acknowledge his contribution comes to mind - occurs was not willing to - don`t want the think is - in fact the chance are - very likely

b.

subjective - formed on personal opinion era - period of time blased - one sided objective - formed on facts conquered - defeated by other side voyages - trips actual - real presumably - very likely accurate - exact treaty - agreement between countries draft - not ended version of document leaders - people in control grant - allowing to have smth brutal - violent struggle - attempt to have smth approved - agreed independence - having own country version - form of smth 5.

I guess that people who has connected with writing scientific facts or materials about history is rather subjective. Their versions based on objective opinion but all writings is always subjective.

6.

I like reading history. It inspires me to create or write something new. I think it is necessary to know what happened in the past because history repeats. That`s why we can change our future if we know that past facts.

I like the history of China. We can find there a right economical way for our country and solve religious problems.

I met a strange man with red hair. He was in T-shirt with palms and green shorts. Drinking a beer he decided to tell me an interesting story.

- I have just been running across the field - began those man. - I like jogging very much after hard working day. I`ve crossed a great distance. That`s why I decided to stop and lie on the ground. Suddenly, something was ranging above my head. I.. I just saw up and seen a huge bus! Do you understand? A huge bus! With color smoke: green, red, purple colors were round of it...

Suddenly this man raised and walked away. I was waiting him 5 minutes, 10, 20. He didn`t return. It was very strange. I saw him next to his friends a week after this situation and he was silent.

I have only one thought in my head - he knew he could never tell anyone because they would never believe him...
