III Read the article about how to deal with “know-it-alls”. For questions 1-5 choose the correct answer A, B, C or D.
You know them. That friend who always likes 1)… their unsolicited advice, who always has an opinion. Someone who always knows 2)… you do, even when they don`t. And, while dealing with these people can be a little bit overbearing, there are some things you can do. First, you might want to try showing these people a little attention; after all, attention is what they`re really after! And usually, when they receive the attention they want, they will be happy.
Be careful, though – if you make a habit of showing them too much attention, they might not stop bothering you until they`re satisfied. Which, of course, will take a lot more attention that it would have before you tried this method.
Another method is a bit different – try to understand 3)… person. If these people knew how difficult they were being, they would act much differently! As such, honesty may be a good approach to dealing with these people. Make an effort to understand this person and how they feel. And then, respectfully share with them how they are making you feel.
Again, be careful here. If they become upset, remind them that if they had been more understanding, you wouldn`t have needed to talk to them like this. And, moreover, if they had been more respectful, you wouldn`t need to be so direct now. After the conversation, give them some space – they will probably be unhappy, and they will need time 4)… their feelings. Afterward, if they still 5)… how you feel, just repeat to them that if this behaviour didn`t make you angry, you wouldn`t have needed to talk about it.

IV In your English class you have been discussing different ways of studying English. Your teacher has asked you to write a composition with the following title “The Advantages and Disadvantages of Learning English Abroad Compared to Learning it in Ukraine.
Education is what a modern person cannot do without becoming a successful person, businessman, professional specialist in his field, namely professional, and not just what you are in the diploma.
But is there enough knowledge that gives: a school, college, institute, etc. No, of course. To become truly a professional, in addition to what a particular educational institution gives us, additional knowledge is needed that a person can get. A person’s education is not only what they give you in finished form, but also what you yourself get, that is, self-education.
it’s narrow, from the primitive to go to work, a low-paid employee to the point that you can go “downhill.” The level of education is determined not only by the fact that you graduated from college or university, etc. Education is determined by the person himself, that is, whether I have enough knowledge in any field or do I want to know more so as not to fall for “laughter to people”, or a trick for a fraudster, etc. However, the level of education in the career ladder is important, when applying for a job, the employer can hire a person with a higher education than a person with a secondary specialized education, although the knowledge and skills of the second may be higher than that of the first.
We learn not for grades, but for life. Education is sometimes like money: you need to have a lot of it, otherwise you will look poor anyway. To become a truly educated person, you need to constantly develop yourself, and not stop there. Education is like a goal, in order to get something - you need to achieve it, but not reached, stopped, then you are doomed to failure, and in education. It is not for nothing that there is a proverb: “Live and learn.” Education does not consist only of knowledge gained in books, it is also collected on the basis of a person’s life experience.
In my life, education is one of the foundations of my future career ladder. Now I am studying in college, gaining knowledge in my specialty, but in addition to college I am engaged in self-education, I try to learn something new from experienced teachers. But, this will not end my education, I will continue to develop both in the profession and in self-education, without which, in principle, it is impossible to become a professional in my field. But besides education, it is important to have a good upbringing and, of course, talent, because good education along with upbringing is a “talent” that every professional should have.
