Task 1. Read the letter to a friend:

Chrummwisstrasse 47 8702 Kuesnacht Zurich 17th September Dear Mark, Thanks so much for your card. I really loved the party last week and I was quite sad at the end. I’m going to miss all the wonderful friends I made at the company. How are things without me? I started work at my new place on Monday. The commute is a lot shorter. I catch a train near my house and I'm at work in fifteen minutes. It’s amazing! I have time to play with Maggie before she goes to bed! The house is nice - see the pictures. But we’re really busy at the moment. A lot of things are still in boxes - including the computer - so I can’t email at the moment. We’re enjoying learning a new language. The first time Maggie heard some children talking she cried. Then she said 'Daddy! What's wrong with them?' In fact, many of the Swiss speak English (and French and Italian!) so communicating in shops isn't difficult. Television is a bit harder! I watched the German "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?' the other night. I think I got two questions correct, but I don't know! Victoria sends her love – she’s cooking something Swiss at the moment. Remember: the flight is only 40 minutes! You, Таmsin and the children are always welcome. Anyway, that’s about it for the moment. Look after yourself and keep in touch. All the best, Rich PS I'm in London for a meeting at the end of October. Do you want to meet for dinner?

Imagine you have moved to another country. Decide what country / city you live in now. Do you live in a flat or in a house now? Why have you moved?

Write an informal letter (230-250 words) to a good friend about your new life:

• 
  Use your ideas
  
• 
  Use the organisation of an informal letter in the given example
  
• 
  Use the clichés:
  

Dear Rich,

Thank you for your letter!

I was glad to receive it. I was very busy because I decided to move to another country. Are you surprised? Can you imagine what the country is? Of course, it is Spain. How is everything?

I live in a house now. I am absolutely happy and glad . I am deeply convinced that living in a house is much better and more comfortable of course. I have more space. But I have a garden and I will have to work here. By the way, Ann sends hi to you and Jane.

I know that you are interested in my reasons of moving to Spain. First of all, Spain is a country of smiling people, not burdened with stress. Family members in Spain are very close to each other. Secondly, Spain, and especially its southern coast, pleases with warm weather for 9 months a year, this is the westernmost point in Europe, the sun shines here until 10 pm. Unforgettable summer evenings. On the beach you can sunbathe until 8 to 9 pm, and then enjoy the sunset in the beach cafe. Thirdly, Spaniards are very friendly and sociable people. Yes, emotional, noisy, sometimes even violent. However, for the most part, Spaniards are very friendly and hospitable.

Anyway, that’s about it for the moment. Look after yourself and keep in touch.

Best wishes,

Mark

17 сентября

Дорогой Марк,

Большое спасибо за вашу открытку.

Мне очень понравилась вечеринка на прошлой неделе, и мне было очень грустно в конце. Я буду скучать по всем замечательным друзьям, которых приобрел в компании. Как дела без меня?

Я приступил к работе на новом месте в понедельник. Поездка намного короче. Я сажусь на поезд возле своего дома и через пятнадцать минут буду на работе. Это потрясающе! У меня есть время поиграть с Мэгги перед сном!

Дом хороший - смотрите фото. Но сейчас мы очень заняты. Многое еще лежит в коробках, в том числе и компьютер, так что сейчас я не могу писать по электронной почте.

Нам нравится учить новый язык. Когда Мэгги впервые услышала детский разговор, она заплакала. Тогда она сказала: «Папа! Что с ними не так?' На самом деле, многие швейцарцы говорят по-английски (а также по-французски и по-итальянски!), поэтому общаться в магазинах несложно. Телевидение немного сложнее! Смотрел немецкий "Кто хочет стать миллионером?" вчера вечером. Кажется, я правильно ответил на два вопроса, но я не знаю!

Виктория шлет привет — она готовит что-то швейцарское в данный момент. Помните: полет всего 40 минут! Вам, Тамсин и детям всегда рады.

Во всяком случае, на данный момент это все. Следите за собой и оставайтесь на связи.

Всего наилучшего,

Рич

PS Я в Лондоне на встрече в конце октября. Хочешь встретиться за ужином?
Dear Rich,

Thanks for your letter! You should write to me more often because I miss you. Why do not you come and see me in London? We should go to the café. You should not worry that you do not know London. I will show you around. You should visit a lot of sights of interest. It will be wonderful and great. Do you like this idea? I will be looking forward answering from you and take care!

Best wishes,

Mark

Task 2. Write an assay on the following topic: The best way to find a job. (150–200 words).
There is no doubt that it is not difficult to find a job. There are some efficient ways to do it. My goal is to tell you about the most efficient one. I am deeply convinced that work search in the Internet communities and telegram-canals are becoming more and more popular. Professional online communities are popular with both job seekers and companies. People subscribe to such channels to find useful information about the field, improve skills and meet colleagues. Companies understand that it is easy to find an employee in a vibrant professional community, so they post vacancies there.

---

Job search in social networks is most popular among young audiences under 35, because this method allows you to save time and immediately start communicating with a company representative without unnecessary officialdom. It is worth considering certain nuances. Its main advantages are direct communication with employers, fast access to vacancies. Its main disadvantage is a great risk to meet bad people there. To sum up, I can say that it is necessary to take into account its pros and cons and think about efficiency of this method.

Task 1. Read the email:

Dear Poppy, How are you? Sorry I didn't reply to any of your emails, but I only checked today. Last week was a busy and very exciting week. Ollie and I went out for dinner on Friday. We were celebrating our anniversary – we started going out four years ago. Four years! I can't believe it. He wanted to surprise me and he did - we went to Fifteen - Jamie Oliver's new restaurant! The food was amazing. It's also cheaper than I thought. However, that's not the reason I'm writing ... After the meal, we were having coffee and Ollie asked for the bill. When it came, he gave it to me. I laughed, but then I saw a lot of waiters looking at me. What's more, they were all smiling. I didn't know what was happening. When I looked at the bill, I knew. It just said Will you marry me. Katy?' in Ollie's handwriting Then Ollie gave me a small box. It was a ring! I put it on and very nervously said yes. The waiters started clapping and I went very red! Someone in the restaurant gave us a bottle of champagne. We didn't drink it, though. We can have it when you next come to London. And we can also go shopping! I need a wedding dress and someone to help me choose it! Love, Katy

I am so happy because I am pregnant. We are very excited. Besides, we worry a lot. Can you give us some advice? What should we do? Of course, we know, we should visit a doctor at first? What should we do next? You are experienced parents therefore we appreciate your answer. By the way, Ben says hi to you and your husband as well. I am sure they will meet soon and become best friends like us.

That is all with this information. Take care and I will be looking forward hearing from you as soon as possible.

Дорогая Поппи,

Как дела? Извините, я не ответил ни на одно из ваших писем, но я проверил только сегодня. Прошедшая неделя была насыщенной и очень интересной.

Мы с Олли поужинали в пятницу. Мы отмечали нашу годовщину – мы начали встречаться четыре года назад. Четыре года! Я не могу в это поверить. Он хотел сделать мне сюрприз, и он сделал — мы пошли в Fifteen — новый ресторан Джейми Оливера! Еда была восхитительной. Это также дешевле, чем я думал. Впрочем, я пишу не об этом...

---

После еды мы пили кофе, и Олли попросил счет. Когда оно пришло, он отдал его мне. Я рассмеялся, но потом увидел множество официантов, смотрящих на меня. Более того, все они улыбались.

Я не знал, что происходит. Когда я посмотрел на счет, я знал. Он гласил: “Ты выйдешь за меня замуж. Кэти? “ почерком Олли Потом Олли дал мне маленькую коробочку. Это было кольцо! Я надела его и очень нервно сказала да. Официанты начали хлопать, и я сильно покраснела!

Кто-то в ресторане дал нам бутылку шампанского. Но мы его не пили. Мы можем выпить его, когда вы в следующий раз приедете в Лондон. А еще мы можем пройтись по магазинам! Мне нужно свадебное платье и кто-то, кто поможет мне его выбрать!

С любовью,

Кэти

Dear Kate,

Thanks for your letter so much. I am sorry that I have not relied for a long time but I was very busy at my work. I am surprised to know that you get married.

Take care and I will be looking forward hearing from you as soon as possible.

Best wishes,

Poppy

Task 2. Write an assay on the topic: Unemployment in my country (150–200 words).

There is no doubt that unemployment is a great problem in Russia.
Therefore we can do our best to solve this problem in Russia. The relevance of the topic lies in the fact that the problem of employment and unemployment today is becoming an integral element of the life of Russia, which has a significant impact not only on the socio-economic, but also on the political situation in the country. Also, unemployment is inextricably linked with ongoing structural changes in the national economy and the world economy. As a complex and controversial macroeconomic phenomenon, it remains in the center of attention of both the population and the scientific community.

The government has considerable financial resources in the form of the National Welfare Fund now. What can be done? Taking into account the experience of previous years, it is necessary to create a mechanism for subsidizing enterprises. Subsidies can be allocated on the condition of maintaining employment and organizing retraining at the workplace, improving the production process. To sum up, it is necessary to take measures to make this problem weaker and tend to a better living of standard among people.
