Dear friends,
take a glance at the flower! This sort is called ""Duchess of Edinburgh", but actually it has nothing to do with our new topic, it can just help You deal with Ur stress,
and the keys to Ur home task are following below:

to shake hands in disbelief          to clench fists angrily
to shrug shoulders indifferently               to stamp feet angrily
to tap fingers nerviously on the table        to fold arms and wait patiently
to blush in cheeks with embarrassment     to tremble in fear

lots of love, NA

 International Translation Day is celebrated every year on 30 September on the feast of St. Jerome, the Bible translator who is considered the patron saint of translators. The celebrations have been promoted by FIT (theInternational Federation of Translators) ever since it was set up in 1953. In 1991 FIT launched the idea of an officially recognised International Translation Day to show solidarity of the worldwide translation community in an effort to promote the translation profession in different countries (not necessarily only in Christian ones). This is an opportunity to display pride in a profession that is becoming increasingly essential in the era of progressing globalisation

 Dear friends, did you see what all of us would like to see once in a 18-year period, a really historic event in the Universe?

A lunar eclipse (also known as a blood moon) occurs when the Moon passes directly behind the Earthinto its umbra (shadow). This can occur only when the sun, Earth and moon are aligned  exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle. Hence, a lunar eclipse can occur only the night of a full moon. The type and length of an eclipse depend upon the Moon's location relative to its orbital nodes.

Unlike a solar eclipse, which can be viewed only from a certain relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of the Earth. A lunar eclipse lasts for a few hours, whereas a total solar eclipse lasts for only a few minutes at any given place, due to the smaller size of the Moon's shadow. Also unlike solar eclipses, lunar eclipses are safe to view without any eye protection or special precautions, as they are dimmer than the full moon.

Oh, my god!
we almost missed the great day, the 26th of September, which was observed as...

Hi, everybody and everyone!
here is the story of a spacesuit to be recorded.
and....for the 8th formers, there is a basic story about our city, just turn to the COUNTRY STUDY PAGE on this blog.
Thank U! Best wishes!

********************
A spacesuit is really three suits worn at the same time. The inner suit is made of fabric woven of plastic tubes and nylon thread. Water pumped through these tubes cools the spacesuit.
The next layer is a pressure suit. This garment prevents the astronaut’s blood from boiling when there is no air pressure. Air inflates the suit like a balloon. Special joints help the astronaut move in this stiff suit.
The outer suit repels tiny bits of flying rock. These particles might damage the pressure suit. The outer suit also protects the astronaut during the extreme temperatures of lunar days and nights. 
Like a snail, an astronaut carries his or her home- in a spacesuit.

Dear friends,

´По­яс­не­ние.

´По­лез­но вна­ча­ле про­чи­тать текст зада­ния про себя; вы­де­лить труд­ные для про­из­но­ше­ния слова; раз­ме­тить ин­то­на­цию; про­чи­тать текст ше­по­том, а потом вслух, об­ра­щая вни­ма­ние на слит­ность и бег­лость речи.

´Читая текст, из­бе­гай­те не­обос­но­ван­ных пауз в речи, верно рас­став­ляй­те уда­ре­ния и пра­виль­но ис­поль­зуй­те ин­то­на­цию, не на­ру­шай­те нормы про­из­но­ше­ния слов.

The day begins early  at the Zoo. At 5 A.M. even the birds are still asleep. But the  lights shine in the Bird House kitchen as a keeper starts his or her work. Many used feeding pans wait by the sink to be cleaned.Pans washed, the keeper starts to prepare the day’s food.  Apples, oranges, bananas, and kale wait for chopping. Cans of sweet potatoes and fruit are opened. Meat and fish are set out to defrost. By this time, birds are beginning to wake up. The keeper goes on with his  or her work as the sounds of the birds grow louder and louder.The keeper has to chop some apples into small pieces. Other apples are minced. Kale goes through the mincing machine. It comes out like ground parsley. Fish and meat are sliced.
