49 (6) My mother is a kind-hearted and understanding woman. My father is very hard working and brave. My brother is reliable and cheerful, but he tends to be a bit selfish sometimes.

49 (7) 1. Sleep is extremely important for teenagers because it is while they are sleeping that they release a hormone that is essential for their growth. They need more sleep than both children and adults. 2. They play computer games until late at night but can’t find the energy to get out of bed in the morning. 3. New research suggests that the reason for such behaviour maybe the hormonal changes of puberty. 4. Melatonin is ’darkness hormone’ which helps us to fall asleep. 5. Teenagers start to produce the hormone at 1 a.m. So, most teenagers do not get enough sleep. This results in bad moods and sometimes depression. 6. In America, some schools have decided to start their classes later in the morning to give their teenagers some extra time in bed. Students started studying much better in class.

50 (8) 1. No, I don’t. I usually go to bed early. 2. No, it isn’t. 3. Sometimes I watch TV late at night. 4. No, I don’t. 5. Do you think your classes start too early in the morning. Yes, I do. 6.1 think that 9.30 is the best time for me to start school. I’d have enough sleep.

It is typical for a lot of my friends. But they do not understand that it is not so good for their health. 5.1 agree. It is a problem of taste or maybe health problems. I don't eat rice, because I don’t like its taste. My friend doesn’t eat oranges and lemons because she has allergy to them. 6. I agree. Nowadays people have different schedules and come home for dinner at different times. 7. It is a nice idea. A special teacher could teach us to cook a tasty and healthy food.

56 (3) I don’t agree with the Miller. I think we must help people when they are in trouble.

They need our help and support.

56 (4) 1. Every day Hans worked in his garden. His friend, the Miller would always have plums and apples from Hans’ garden if it was the fruit season. 2. The Miller wasn’t really the most devoted friend, because he was a selfish man. 3. Yes, I agree. But they must have common troubles, too. A friend in need is a friend indeed. 4. І think the Miller was a man of his words, but Hans was the man of actions. By his actions he showed his kind and giving nature. 5. Hans proved to be a devoted friend. He was caring, generous, unselfish and kind. He shared his harvest with Hugh, the Miller and wanted nothing in return. 6. A true friend always cares about you and helps when you need it.

57 (5) 1. The proverb means that a person must show how to be a real friend. Do not expect to have many good friends if you aren’t a good friend by yourself. 2. You shouldn’t search for many reasons why not to visit your friend, why not to help him. Instead, you must always be ready to help your friends and to spend your time with them. 3. When you are in trouble, you’ll see who you real friends are.

57 (6) a) Hans: I have many friends, but the most devoted friend is Hugh, the Miller. He says such nice things about friendship. I’m proud of having a friend with such noble ideas.

b) One of the neighbours: Our Hans is very kind and generous man, but he is not very good at choosing friends. The Miller uses him. He doesn’t help Hans with the garden, but he always fills his pockets with fruit. Why doesn’t he give Hans a sack of flour instead?

Hugh, the Miller: Hans is lucky to have me as his best friend. He can share his harvest with me. And I explain him what real friendship is.

57 (7) I like Hans more, because he is a kind-hearted, unselfish, open-hearted man. He is also very generous and devoted to his friends.

The Miller is very selfish, greedy and unable to be thankful. He uses Hans work and gives nothing instead.

57 (8) I think selfish people can never be true friends, because at first they think about their benefits and they do not think about other people at all.
