Text A

So Mary and David had been engaged for a year before their wedding. It was a special time. Both of them tried to do their best at their University and did even better than before. They had very little time to spend together, that's why those short periods which they could devote to each other were particularly valuable to them. The parents also had to give in. The date of the wedding was fixed and all the necessary arrangements were under way. They did not mean to have a lot of guests, they wanted to see only those whom they loved, but their parents made them do it in the way which they considered reasonable, as they did not want to hurt any relatives' feelings. In due time the invitation cards were sent out to the distant and close relatives and friends. The young couple chose the catholic church of St. Charles' for the ceremony. The fiancée was busy preparing her wedding gown. She wanted to look her best as any girl would on her wedding day. The fiancé also took care of his outfit.

The night before the wedding David decided to celebrate his last evening as a bachelor in the company of his close friends. So they went to a pub and drank a lot of beer there. You know, David is keen on beer and knows a lot about it.

The church ceremony was fixed for eleven in the morning. So the bridegroom hired a Rolls Royce for the occasion and all the other relatives and friends arrived in their own cars. When the bride got out of the car, she walked to the church on her father's arm. Mary was strikingly beautiful in her white dress and looked so fresh and tender that the guests could not take their eyes off her.

The organ played a ceremonial melody. The beautiful couple stood before the altar. The priest delivered his sermon and the faces of the bride and the groom were as solemn as the moment itself. The ceremony was over within an hour.

When the newly married couple were leaving the church, there were cheers and shouts and a storm of confetti.

At five o'clock all the guests got together at a small restaurant in Prescott Street. The tables at the restaurant were beautifully laid, they were full of delica­cies, champagne in buckets and a huge wedding cake, which looked like a work of art. There were a lot of witty speeches, good wishes and all the evening the guests enjoyed the Beatles' music. The bride and groom cut the cake together reluctant to destroy this creation. The cake was extremely delicious as all the other food. So all the guests enjoyed the meal and the atmosphere of the wedding.

At about nine o'clock the young couple bade good-bye and left for Speke air­port. From there they would fly to Heathrow and then on to their honeymoon to Malaysia.

1. Mary and David had been engaged for two years before their wedding.

Appearances are deceptive, as the English proverb says. Are our appearances really so deceptive? Can we judge about a person by his or her appearance? There are special people who can say about a person by the shape of eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, lips, chin, etc., but this question is still highly disputed amongst psy­chologists and other specialists.

It goes without saying, that we like everything beautiful, and try to surround ourselves with beautiful things. We take care of our appearance and try to look our best to be liked by other people and particularly by people of the opposite sex. It is very important for us to look modern (up-to-date) and young, because if we want to have a good and prestigious job, we should look up to the minute, have pleasant manners, particularly if our work deals with other people. On the one hand we think that it is easier to look attractive nowadays, as we have a lot of cosmetics at our disposal which can help us to improve our looks. And various fitness clubs can help us to correct our figures. On the other hand we realize that requirements to a modern person's appearance are much higher. So, a modern person must look at­tractive, slender and self-reliant.

Our heroes, Mary and David are a very beautiful couple. Mary is a young fair-haired woman, very slender. Any Hollywood star could envy her figure. Besides, her face is very nice with blue eyes, a straight nose, and a fair com­plexion. Her lips are pink and fresh. Without any exaggeration we can say that she looks like a morning flower, fresh and beautiful. The main point about her is her smile — open and charming. And as a matter of fact, she uses very little make-up to look better. Sometimes she uses mascara to make her eyes look more expressive.

David is a perfect match. He is also tall and slender, broad-shouldered, very masculine, and strong. You can guess at once that he goes in for sports. He is also blue-eyed, his hair is curly and auburn. A typical handsome young English­man.

But if you ask Mary what it is she loves about David she usually answers that David is handsome, but the main thing is he is unique in every way, in his attitude to her, in his love for her. He has a sense of humour, he is a good mixer and a reli­able friend. She feels he is the man who can devote all his life to her and their would-be children. David, answering the same question, says that Mary is a real find, besides being extremely attractive she is very intelligent, sincere, tender and caring. Sometimes she is a bit too hot-tempered and straightforward, but David treats these qualities as purely female tricks. He is a bit snobbish at times, but not to Mary. Both of them are a little jealous of each other, Mary more than David, as she is more emotional. She is usually jealous of his past, but then she understands that our past cannot be remade and calms down. David is also suspicious when other men (strangers) stare at Mary too long or too frankly. In these cases David usually takes Mary away or tries to do everything so that she could not feel un­comfortable. Sometimes David feels like hitting the man who stares at Mary, but then he understands that it is not a way out. But really it is not a problem and David feels flattered that he possesses such a beautiful wife.

Render the following text in English. Think of the ending of the story.

Я никогда не забуду тот день, когда я познакомилась с Майком. Его внешность и манеры произвели на меня достаточно сильное впечатле­ние. Если честно, то с первого взгляда он показался мне некрасивым, так как у него неправильные черты лица, нельзя сказать, что он крепкого те­лосложения. Но пообщавшись с ним полчаса, понимаешь, насколько он обаятелен. Глядя в его большие серые доверчивые глаза, создается впе­чатление, что он не способен обмануть. Глаза, пожалуй, то, что делает его лицо особенным. Они мечтательные, и в них можно прочесть какую-то тайну. Выражение его лица настолько детское, что с трудом можно поверить, что ему уже тридцать. Нос немного великоват для его неболь­шого лица, губы слишком пухлые для мужчины, но они говорят о чувственности его натуры. Подбородок решительный, это подсказывает, что он обладает волей и добивается того, что хочет. Цвет лица слегка заго­релый, что придает ей здоровый вид. Волосы русые, вьющиеся, но не слишком густые. Обычно люди с такими волосами рано лысеют. Но об этом пока не думаешь. Он несколько хрупок для своих лет, и не слиш­ком высок, точнее среднего роста. Когда он улыбнулся, а улыбка была очень искренней и немного детской, то обнажил ряд белых ровных зу­бов, что придало его лицу еще большее обаяние. Одет он был несколько не по возрасту. Так обычно одеваются подростки: поношенные джинсы, кроссовки, футболка и куртка. Может быть, ему нравилось выглядеть моложе. Поговорив с Майком однажды, я мечтала о следующей встрече. Я тогда не думала, что последующие отношения с ним могут меня раз­очаровать...

 

Read and translate the text «John Lennon»:

John Lennon

With the thirtieth anniversary of the launch of his first record coming up this year, PLAYBACK looks at the amazing and sometimes controversial life of one of the greatest figures of pop history.

John Lennon was shot and killed outside the apartment block where he lived on December 8th 1980. People all around the world felt a terrible loss. They had grown up with this man's music, and everything he had done had affected their lives. Now it was all over.

The group he had formed, The Beatles, had changed pop music forever. From their first single, «Love Me Do», in 1962, people heard something different to the usual pop music of the time. Their songs seemed more musical than others, and more exciting than the kind of thing most artists were then recording. The Beatles also looked nicer than anyone else. Many more people began to listen to pop mu­sic than before. Soon the following that the group had was like nothing anyone had ever seen: a hysteria that the newspapers called «Beatlomania» swept Britain and soon America.

John Lennon was born in Liverpool on October 9th 1940, and formed his first group when he was still at school. He certainly took more interest in music than he did in schoolwork. His report books can still be read and are full of angry com­ments by his teachers. In 1956 he met Paul McCartney, and McCartney joined Lennon's group, The Quarry Men. The two began to compose songs together, and it was these songs that drew people's attention to them. But their first professional concerts were in Hamburg, Germany, and it was here that they perfected their sound. They had to play night after night, and by the end of their two years there, they had become an exciting band to watch. Lennon was always the rebel and made an impressive figure on stage.

When they moved back to Liverpool, they began to play at the Cavern Club, where all the new bands were playing. But their songs and their professionalism set them apart. They acquired a manager, Brian Epstein, who gave them a new «clean» image. He tried to get them a record company deal, but at first no one would take them on. Finally it was a small label, Parlophone, who released «Love Me Do», a Lennon-McCartney composition.

Their next single, «Please Please Me» reached number one in March 1963. When the media focused on the new group, it soon became obvious that Lennon was not like other pop stars. His answers to reporters' questions showed an unusual intelli­gence and wit. His character soon shone out: he always kept his rebellious streak, and hated pretension. He was never quite comfortable with the Beatles' «nice» image.

In fact it was Lennon who began to break away from this image, and change the public perception of the Beatles. His remarks began to offend some people. His and McCartney's music changed and became more psychedelic. The Beatles grew beards and long hair. They were no longer those four clean-cut young men that even parents liked.

In 1966, Lennon met Japanese artist Yoko Ono. She was not beautiful in the glamorous way many of the Beatles' followers were, but he fell in love with her. To his surprise he found he loved listening to her views on art, and admired her independence. She brought something new to his life, and soon he found there was more he wanted to do on his own, or with Yoko, than he wanted to do with the Beatles. In 1968 he told the other Beatles of his decision to leave, although the real split did not come until 1971, when Paul McCartney also decided their partnership should end. Lennon married Yoko Ono in 1969.

Of all the former Beatles, Lennon made the most promising start as a solo art­ist. In 1971 he recorded the song by which most people remember him, «Imagine». But in 1975 he stopped making records. For a while he and Yoko separated, partly because of the problems he was having with drugs and alcohol, but even­tually he settled down with her again in New York. He devoted himself to look­ing after their son, Sean, becoming a «house husband» while Yoko was the «power wife», going out to work. He also spent time trying to become an Ameri­can citizen, something which was difficult because of his drugs convictions and unpopularity with the government. But John and Yoko were together for good now, even looking forward to old age together. In 1980 he released a new album that celebrated their lives, Double Fantasy, and it and the single «Just Like Starting Over» seemed to signal a new, positive phase in both his private life and in his musical career. But that came to its end too soon on the street outside his home in December 1980.
