Демченко Минск: Вышэйшая школа, 2011 TAPESCRIPTS UNIT 1 Unit 1, Lesson 1, Ex.1 WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL By Kenn Nesbitt Dear students, the summer has ended. The school year at last has begun. But this year is totally different. I promise we’ll only have fun. “We won’t study any mathematics, and recess will last all day long. Instead of the Pledge of Allegiance, we’ll belt out a rock ’n’ roll song. “We’ll only play games in the classroom. You’re welcome to bring in your toys. It’s okay to run in the hallways. It’s great if you make lots of noise. “Your video games are your homework. You’ll have to watch lots of TV. For field trips we’ll go to the movies and get lots of candy for free. “The lunchroom will only serve chocolate and Triple-Fudge Sundaes Supreme.” Yes, that’s what I heard from my teacher Before I woke up from my dream. Unit 1, Lesson 2, Ex. 2 Is your last name – your family name – Smith? Then, long ago, you had an ancestor who made things out of metal. Is your family name Fields? Then, long ago, you had an ancestor who lived near the fields. Is your name Nelson? Then, long ago, you had an ancestor whose father’s name was Nels. People didn’t always have last names. So why do we have them now? There are many different reasons. In Europe, for example, last names only became common about 800 years ago. Kings and other nobles took last names to set themselves apart from the common people. It was their way of saying, ”I’m better than you are.” It wasn’t long, however, before everyone began to take last names. Every family name is a word that means something. All family names started out in the same way. Long ago the names were words that told what kind of work a man did, or where he lived, or what his father’s name was. And sometimes they were simply names of things. The German family name Zimmerman means ‘a carpenter’ - a person whose job is making things out of wood. The French family name Dupont means ‘of the mountain’. The Russian family name Ivanoff means ‘of Ivan’. The Italian family name Fiore means ‘flower’. Family names have the same meaning in any language. Of course, they are not spelled the same. And they do not sound the same. But the meaning is the same. Smith, which means ‘metalworker’, is the most common name in English. It is also common name in other languages. If you are German, it is Schmidt. If you are French, it is Lefevre. If you are Italian, it is Farraro. If you are Russian, it is Kuznetsoff. In most parts of the world, when a woman marries, she takes her husband’s last name. When children are born, they take their father’s last name. Everyone in the family has the same last name. That’s why last names are called family names. But in Iceland, everyone in the family has a different last name. Icelandic people take their father’s first name as their last name. Boys add ‘son’ to their father’s name. Girls add ‘dottir’’. And when girls marry, they keep their last names. Suppose Jon Ingolfsson marries a girl named Thora Haldorsdottir. If they have a son, his last name will be Jonsson. If they have a daughter, her last name will be Jonsdottir. Family names aren’t always last names. In China, a boy who is born into the Wan family, and named Lung, is called Wan Lung. So, in China, family name is first. жүктеу/скачать 234 Kb. Достарыңызбен бөлісу:
