Task 1: Read the film review. Variant 1
A review of War of the Worlds by Andrea
I recently went to see War of the the Worlds.It's a science fiction film starring
Tom Cruise. The film is based on a book written over 100years ago, although
It is set in modern times. The story is very gripping.It's about alien machines
from space which land on Earth. The film has a happy ending.
The acting is very good, Tom Cruise, who plays a father who is
looking for his family is excellent as usual. However I didn't think Dakota
Fanning was very convincing as his daughter. The special effects were
incredible the machines looked terrifying and there were some very scary
moments which I didn't enjoy.
This is a classic Spielberg film: fast-moving, not too violent, and full of
action. It was scary but I really enjoyed it. Go and see it if you can.

Once there lived an old man and old woman. The old man said, "Old woman, bake me a bun." "What can I make it from? I have no flour." "Eh, eh, old woman! Scrape the cupboard, sweep the flour bin, and you will find enough flour. "The old woman picked up a duster, scraped the cupboard, swept the flour bin and gathered about two handfuls of flour. She mixed the dough with sour cream, fried it in butter, and put the bun on the window sill to cool. The bun lay and lay there. Suddenly it rolled off the window sill to the bench, from the bench to the floor, from the floor to the door. Then it rolled over the threshold to the entrance hall, from the entrance hall to the porch, from the porch to the courtyard, from the courtyard trough the gate and on and on.  Жил-был старик со старухою. Просит старик: - Испеки, старуха, колобок. Из чего печь-то? Муки нет. – Э - эх, старуха! По коробу поскреби, по сусеку помети, авось муки и наберется. Взяла старуха крылышко, по коробу поскребла, по сусеку помела, и набралось муки пригоршни с две. Замесила тесто на сметане, изжарила в масле и положила колобок на окошечко остудить. Колобок полежал-полежал, да вдруг и покатился- с окна на лавку, с лавки на пол, по полу да к дверям. Перепрыгнул через порог в сени, из сеней - на крыльцо, с крыльца - на двор, со двора - за ворота, дальше и дальше.
