Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday in the USA. Its celebration goes back to the 17th century when the first Europeans left England to travel to the New World. They called themselves Pilgrims and most of them left their motherland because they didn’t agree (to agree - соглашаться) with the official religion in their country.
After the long and difficult journey on the Mayflower across the ocean, the Pilgrims found a place with fields and a stream of fresh water to drink and a lot of tall trees to use for house building. They gave the place the name of Plymouth and made their first colony there.
The first winter and spring in the new country were very hard for the Pilgrims. There was little food and the Pilgrims had great problems. Help came from the Indians who lived nearby. They taught the Pilgrims how to grow corn (кукуруза), how to gather food and dry some of it for winter use. With the Indians’ help the Pilgrims planted a lot of Indian corn. They worked hard and in autumn they had food for winter ahead. The Pilgrims decided to celebrate it and to thank God for helping them. The women got the food ready: prepared ducks and geese and fish from the stream, made some salads. Twenty Indian friends came and stayed there three days. That was how the tradition of celebrating Thanksgiving Day started.

Task 2: Read the text and answer the questions after it. Write down your short answers.
Destroying the Rainforest
Why are people destroying rainforests? There is a short answer to that question: money. Countries with rainforests cut down about 50,000 km2 (square kilometers) of trees every year, and sell the wood (древесина, дрова) to the rich countries of the world. International business buys rainforests in Latin America where land is very cheap. They cut down trees, sell the wood, and then use the land for feeding.
Japan doesn’t cut down the trees, which grow in Japan – but forty per cent of all the world’s rainforest wood goes to this country. Switzerland stopped buying rainforest wood in 1982. But have many countries done the same? If we want to help the rainforest, we must never buy furniture made of rainforest wood.
Many countries cut down rainforests and plant coffee and sugar, which they can sell to rich countries. Not many insects and animals can live in coffee and sugar plantations. A lot of them become endangered and die in the end.
We need to learn more about the trees of the rainforests, before we destroy them. For example, one famous tree is the petroleum nut tree, from Philippines. This tree makes oil, which we can use for fires for cooking or lighting. One of these trees can make fifty litres of oil every year.
People make roads in rainforests. Without the trees to protect the ground, the heavy rain quickly washes away the soil near the roads and nothing can grow there again. Once in Madagascar there were thousands of trees in the mountains and thousands of animals lived there. Nothing can grow there now, and no animals can live there.
Are we to destroy all the rainforests of the world? We must begin thinking of other ways to get money, we should begin planting young trees in the rainforests. We must think twice before cutting down trees in the rainforests. Certainly people will use the rainforests but they should protect them too.

Some Important Rules
Colds make more pupils miss classes that any other illnesses. Most teenagers get between two and four colds a year. No one knows why some people often get down with colds at certain times or why some do not get running noses, cough and headaches even if they sit or sleep in a cold room, do not dress warmly when it’s cold, or go outside with wet hair. But sooner or later everybody catches a cold.
The best plan to cure yourself of a cold is to drink plenty of water or juice and not coffee, tea, or cola drinks to keep enough water in your body. Think of what your body is telling you when you have a cold: sleep if you want to, have a warm bath to make aches and pains in the bones easier. And because you know how bad you can feel when you have a cold, protect the people around you by staying at home and coughing and sneezing into a handkerchief (носовой платок) and washing your hands often with warm water and soap.
Teens who catch colds usually don’t get very sick and don’t need to see a doctor. But you must see your doctor if you’re getting worse instead of getting better three days later after the beginning of the cold. Your doctor can examine your throat and ears to make sure you do not have another illness or develop complications and it is time for you to take antibiotics. Remember, you must not take aspirin or antibiotics without doctor’s recommendations.
If your doctor prescribes antibiotics, be careful to take the medicine exactly as he prescribes. If you stop taking it too soon – even if you start feeling better – the infection may not go away and you can develop other problems.
1)It is ________________ to say why and when people get colds.
