My Favorite Movie Моё любимое кино

One of my favorite things to do is to watch movies. I don’t mind spending a couple of hours on watching a really good film.

I’ve been J.R.R. Tolkien’s fan since childhood that’s why I couldn’t miss a chance to watch movies filmed by Peter Jackson, a famous Hollywood director. The last two parts of “The Hobbit” I watched in the cinema but before that I had rewatched the first part at home. After that I decided to watch “the Lord of the Rings”.

Одним из наиболее приятных способов времяпрепровождения для меня является просмотр кинофильмов. И если картина попадается действительно хорошая, то на нее совершенно не жалко потратить несколько свободных часов.

С детства я являюсь большим поклонником творчества Дж. Р. Р. Толкина, поэтому просто не мог пропустить фильмы, снятые по сюжетам его книг голливудским режиссером Питером Джексоном. Две последние части «Хоббита» я с удовольствием посмотрел в кинотеатре, предварительно освежив воспоминания о первом фильме. После я уже решился посмотреть и «Властелина колец».

Cinema is one of the best types of art and cinematography is considered to be one of the rare wonders. It has appeared in the end of the 19th century. Cinema is a combination of different types of art: music, theater, literature, painting and else.

Every decade has brought something new for the cinema. For example, in the 30-s the main genres were musicals, gangster stories, mute comedies and horror films.

Кино является одним из лучших видов искусства, и кинематография считается одним из немногих чудес света. Оно появилось в конце 19-го века. Кино представляет собой сочетание различных видов искусства: музыки, театра, литературы, живописи и прочего.

Каждое десятилетие принесло что-то новое в кино. Например, в 30-х годов основными жанрами были мюзиклы, гангстерские истории, немые комедии и фильмы ужасов.

Фильм «Зеленая миля» уже давно считается классикой голливудского кино, поэтому я чувствовал себя обязанным посмотреть его.

I have many different hobbies and interests, including good films. Watching films is one of my favourite pastimes. In my opinion, most people in the world simply can’t live without cinema, because it’s one of the best entertainment sources. That’s why, we should be grateful to Lumiere brothers. They were the first to create a three-minute film in 1895 and since then the era of cinematography has begun. Меня зовут Алёна, и мне 14 лет. У меня много разных увлечений и интересов, в том числе и хорошие фильмы. Просмотр фильмов является одним из моих любимых занятий. На мой взгляд, большинство людей в мире просто не могут жить без кино, потому что это один из лучших источников развлечения. Вот почему мы должны быть благодарны братьям Люмьер. Они были первыми, кто создал трёхминутный фильм в 1895 году, и с тех пор началась эпох кинематографа. Читать полностью>>>     My Favorite Kind of Films Мой любимый жанр фильма I like military films the most. I like the way soldiers act during the war, how they show their characters, how their personal traits of personality are shown, the good ones and the bad ones as well. When they are in the frontline of a battle they have to act the way they would never act, the way that is against human nature — they have to kill other people. Больше всего я люблю фильмы на военную тему. Мне нравится, как солдаты ведут себя в условиях войны, как проявляется их характер, как выходит наружу все их личностные качества, как положительные, так и отрицательные. Попав на передовую, человек вынужден вести себя так, как противоречит сама человеческая природа — он вынужден убивать других людей.

This TV-series has 5 episodes that tell you about a horrible tragedy that happened at Chernobyl nuclear plant, about the way they tried to eliminate the consequences and about the trial that took place. Год назад я посмотрел сериал «Чернобыль», и до сих пор считаю его лучшим сериалом, который я когда-либо смотрел. Этот 5 серийный фильм рассказывает о страшной трагедии, которая произошла на Чернобыльской атомной станции, а также о ликвидации последствий и судебном процессе по этому делу.

It’s a real magic, which is now available and affordable nearly in every corner of the world. In fact, it’s a powerful tool of influence on the society. Through the films we learn lots of interesting things about life. However, there are scenes which are never seen in real life. It is especially true about fictions and fantasy films. Я уверен, что все любят кино. Как вид искусства оно появилось в конце 19-го века. Это настоящая магия, которая теперь доступна почти в каждом уголке мира. На самом деле, это мощный инструмент влияния на общество. Через фильмы мы узнаем много интересного о жизни. Тем не менее, есть сцены, которые никогда не встречаются в реальной жизни. Это особенно верно о вымышленных фильмах и фантастике. Читать полностью>>>   The World of Cinema Мир кино

It’s been more than 100 years since the Lumiere brothers showed their famous short film «Arrival of a Train» at the end of the XIX century. Since then the cinema became part of our life and and today it’s very popular.

I think the reason for it is that the world created by the film directors, actors and film crew is something extraordinary.

Со времен создания кинематографа и знаменитой демонстрации братьями Люмьер в Париже короткометражной картины «Прибытие поезда» в конце XIX века прошло уже более сотни лет. С тех пор кино стало неотъемлемой частью нашей жизни и сегодня оно находится на пике популярности.

Думаю, причина этого в том, что мир, созданный режиссерами, актерами и съемочной группой на экране, — это нечто совершенно особенное.

They lead a busy life, travelling from one place to another to meet their fans. My favourite celebrity is Johnny Depp. Although he had starred in many interesting movies, his best role was Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean.

Почти у всех подростков есть свои кумиры или знаменитости, которыми они восхищаются. Я тоже подросток и моей любимой звездой является Киану Ривз. Он всегда был лучшим актером для меня. Мне нравятся фильмы, в которых он играл, его внешний вид и индивидуальность, его интервью и почти все, что связано с ним. На мой взгляд, он необыкновенный человек.

Horror is one of my favourite genres. I like watching horror movies and reading scary books. In my opinion, horror is thrilling and exciting. Some people don’t understand the pleasure of watching such movies, but most of my friends do. One of them even said that horror is the most typical art of the 20th century.

Many techniques in this genre were pioneered by Alfred Hitchcock. His best-known film was certainly “Psycho” filmed in 1960. Other good movies with horror elements were “The Sixth Sense”, “Jurassic Park”, “Jaws”, “I am a Legend”, ‘Ghostbusters”.

Ужасы – это один из моих наиболее любимых жанров. Я люблю смотреть фильмы ужасов и читать страшные книги. На мой взгляд, фильмы ужасов волнующи и захватывающи. Некоторые люди не понимают, какое может быть удовольствие от просмотра таких фильмов, но большинство моих друзей меня понимают. Один из них даже сказал, что ужасы – это самое типичное искусство 20-го века.

Большая часть техники в этом жанре была впервые открыта Альфредом Хичкоком. Его наиболее известный фильм был, конечно же, «Психо», снятый в 1960-м году. Другими хорошими фильмами с элементами ужасов стали «Шестое чувство», «Парк Юрского периода», «Челюсти», «Я -легенда», «Охотники за привидениями».

Since the year Harry Potter was introduced to the world, he has become one of the most popular characters in the history of literature. He is adored by everyone I know: children, adults and even some elderly people.

This orphaned boy has to live with his unpleasant relatives, because he’s lost his parents. He attends the Hogwarts School where they teach him different magical tricks. In fact, it’s a place where he studies wizardry.

Этому осиротевшему мальчику приходиться жить со своими неприятными родственниками, потому что он потерял своих родителей. Он посещает школу Хогвартс, где учат различным магическим трюкам. На самом деле, это место, где он изучает колдовство.

«My Hometown» (мой город) — одна из традиционных тем для заданий и сочинений по английскому языку. Написать такой текст на английском языке о своем городе — несложно, ведь вы имеете дело с хорошо знакомой вам темой. Тем не менее, вам может пригодиться образец ниже.

Это небольшой текст + аудио на тему «Мой город» на английском. Он построен по простейшей схеме: называем город, рассказываем самые примечательные факты о нем, пару фактов из истории города, затем чем он нам нравится и чем не нравится. Заканчивать такой текст лучше оптимистически (даже если не очень хочется).

My Hometown или My Homecity?

Отмечу такой момент. Вы наверняка знаете, что town — это маленький городок, а city — большой город. Кажется логичным, что, если вы из Москвы, то нужно писать homecity, не так ли? На самом деле, не совсем так. Слово homecity в принципе возможно и понятно, но обычно под hometown подразумевают родной город независимо от его размеров. Вот пример из Cambridge Dictionary:

He was born in Miami, but he considers New York his hometown since he’s lived there most of his life. — Он родился в Майами, но считаю Нью Йорк своим родным городом, так как прожил там большую часть жизни.

Другой вопрос, hometown — это город, где родился или город, где живу? Может быть и то, и другое. Если вы родились, выросли и живете в Челябинске, смело называйте его своим «hometown». Но бывает так, что человек родился, рос в одном городе, но давно живет в другом — этот город и будет «hometown». В общем, hometown — это тот город, который вы считаете своим home. Как в этом примере выше: человек родился в Майами, но жил в основном в Нью-Йорке, поэтому считает последний своим родным городом.

Text 12. My Favorite Book

I like reading because I learn a lot of interesting things from books. But most of all I like adventure stories.

My favourite book is «The Adventure of Tom Sawyer» by Mark Twain. It is a story about an American boy and his friends. Tom is inventive and brave. He is always full of ideas. He has a lot of adventures on the Mississippi River.

The book teaches us to be kind and friendly, honest and brave, to be a true friend.

I really enjoyed the book.

Text 14. Winter Holidays

I like winter because I have long winter holidays. They start on the 29^th of December and last till the 10^th of January.

The weather is usually fine. There is a lot of snow everywhere.

During winter holidays I have a lot of free time. I don’t have to get up early and go to school. I like to skate and ski.

Sometimes I go to my country house and meet my friends there. We spend a lot of time in the open air, go to the forest, build snowcastles and play snowballs. If it is cold, I usually stay at home. I read books, watch TV or play computer games.

Also I like my winter holidays because we have a happy day – New Year’s Day on the 1^st of January and I get presents.

Sometimes my parents and I travel during winter holidays. Last year we visited Suzdal. We stayed in a hotel for three days. I saw many places of interest in Suzdal: wooden houses, beautiful churches and monasteries. It was a very impressive trip.

I like my winter holidays very much.

MY BROTHERS

I have twin brothers, Tim and Tom. They are very similar and a lot of people don’t know which twin is twin. They both have blonde hair and blue eyes, and they always wear jeans and T-shirts. They like wearing the same things, and they like doing the same things too. For example, they both like pop music and they’re crazy about football and computers. They go to a football match every Saturday. They’d like to play computer games every night, but our mother says they can’t because they have a lot of homework. Although they are twins, they aren’t the same in every way. For example, Tim works hard at school, but Tom doesn’t. He’s a bit lazy. Our mother is often away from home because she travels a lot in her job, so we all help in the house. Most of the time it’s fine, but sometimes we fight a little! Although they are noisy and sometimes naughty, I think it’s fun to have twin brothers.

SAFARI PARKS

A safari park is like a large zoo, where the animals live in natural conditions (естественные условия). There are several safari parks in Britain and they are very popular places for visit. One of the most famous is at Windsor, which is close to London airport.

You can visit some parts of the safari park on foot. Here you can see the animals that are not dangerous: giraffes, zebras, camels and antelopes. The animals walk around as if they were (как если бы они были в…) in Africa.

Safari parks also have lions, tigers, leopards and other dangerous animals. They cannot live with the other animals, because they would (они бы…) eat them. They would also eat the visitors, so they have to drive (поэтому им приходится ездить в машине) through the parts where these animals live. You must not (нельзя) open the windows and you must not get out of the car.

Safari parks are much better than zoos, because the animals do not live in small cages.
