Text 1. My visit card
My name is Peter. My second name is Nikolaevich. My surname is Smirnov.
So, my full name is Peter Nikolaevich Smirnov. I am 17 years old. I was born in
21
2003, in the Russian city of Omsk. My family is rather small. I have a mother, a father and a sister. My mother is a teacher of chemistry. She works at a college. She likes her profession very much. She is a good-looking, slim woman with black hair and blue eyes. When my mother has free time she goes to sport club to train herself. She says that sport helps to keep our health.
My father is a doctor. He is very talented and experienced in this field. He is a broad-shouldered tall man with fair hair and green eyes. His hobby is playing piano. My sister is two years older than me. She is a third-year student of the Omsk State Medical University. She dreams to become a children’s doctor. She is very interested in learning foreign languages. At present time she is learning French and Italian. She says they have much in common.
I started school at the age of 6 and I finished it at the age of 17. After finish­ing school I decided to enter the Siberian State University of Physical Education and Sport. My choice is not sudden: I have always wanted to study here. My uncle is a merited master of sport. He graduated from this university with honour. His specialization is swimming.
I began to go in for sport early. During all my childhood I attended swimming pool where I trained hard. Besides, my uncle taught me to train properly. Now, I
don’t mean to boast, I am a very good swimmer. I am a candidate to the Master of
sports. Before entering the Siberian State University of Physical Education and Sport I wrote an application. Then I had to pass my entrance examinations and then I was admitted! Now I am a first year student and my specialization is swimming. After graduating from the university I would like to become a very good coach. I am planning to do sport all my future life and I wish my children to take it up. I have already taken part in a lot of swimming competitions where I took the first, second and third places. Now my aim is to get higher education and to become a good specialist in my field.

Text 2. My Working Day
On Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday my alarm-clock wakes me up early in the morning (at 7 o’clock) and my working day begins. I am not an early bird. I would rather say that I am a night owl that is why it is very difficult for me to get up. So I stay in bed for 10 or 15 minutes more, get up, make my bed, switch on the radio and do my morning exercises. I feel much better after my daily dozen. Then I go to the bathroom, take a cold shower, clean my teeth, comb my hair and go to the kitchen to have my breakfast. Usually I make breakfast
27
myself. I don’t eat much in the morning. For breakfast I usually have a cup of strong
coffee and a sandwich. Then I get dressed and leave my house.
I study in the Siberian State University of Physical Education and Sport. I am a first year student and my specialization is gymnastics. As I live far from my university I usually get there by bus or taxi (if I am very late). It takes me about 30 or 40 minutes. Our lessons begin at 9. During our lessons we sometimes have a short 5-minutes break. Frankly speaking, it helps us to relax. At about 12 o’clock we have lunch-time. There is a big nice canteen in our university where most of our students and teachers have lunch. After lunch our lessons go on again. Sometimes we have 4 or 5 lessons a day. We usually have lectures, seminars and physical training lessons, of course.
After my study I usually get very tired. I come home at about 6 or 7 o’clock in the evening and have supper. Then I have a short rest and do my homework. As I go in for sport professionally, I train 5 times a week: on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. Sometimes it is very difficult for me to combine my study with my trainings, but I have to: sport is my life.
I usually have free time on Saturday evening and Sunday. I have a lot of friends and I try to spend my free time with them. My friends are well-bred and friendly, ready to help and support in a difficult situation so I value them all.
I usually go to bed at 11 o’clock in the evening. I fall asleep very fast and so
my working day is over.
Ex. 4. Answer the following questions.
1. What time do you usually wake up?
2. Do you wake up yourself or with the help of your alarm-clock?
3. Do you do your daily dozen in the morning?
4. Speak about other things you do in the morning (First I …, then I … and…).
5. Do you always have breakfast in the morning?
6. Do you prepare your breakfast yourself?
7. Do you live far from your university?
8. How do you usually get to your university?
9. How many lessons a day do you usually have?
10. Do you go in for some sport? How many times a week do you train? Do you have a coach or do you train yourself? Do you get tired after your trainings? Is it difficult for you to combine trainings and study?
28
11. What do you do when you have free time?
12. What time do you go to bed?
Ex. 5. Are you an early bird or a night owl? Do the questionnaire to find it out!
1. When I get up in the morning … . a) I am always happy and I have a lot of energy. b) I am sometimes happy and sometimes I am not.

2. At the weekend … .
a) I always wake up before 9 a.m. b) I sometimes wake up before 9 a.m. and sometimes sleep till noon. c) I hardly ever wake up before 9 a.m.

6. When a friend phones me before 8 a.m. … . a) I am always happy to talk to him/her. b) I am sometimes happy to talk to him/her. c) I never answer the phone at such time.
If you have the majority of «a» answers it means that you are a typical early bird. The majority of «b» answers shows that you are neither an early bird, nor a night owl. Your regimen is not stable and you should change it to avoid problems with your health. And the majority of «c» answers means that you are a night owl.
29
Do you agree with the conclusion? Do you think it is possible to become a night owl if you are an early bird and visa versa? Do you want to change your regimen?
Ex. 6. Read the following situations. Choose one of them and role-play it.
1. You are a night owl. Yesterday you went to bed at 2 o’clock. And today, in the early Sunday morning your friend is phoning you to invite you for a run. Refuse your friend but be tactful with him/her.
