Task 3. Use of English Rewrite the sentences, use First Conditionals. 1. you / not win / the race / if / you / not run / fas 2. we/go/ to the park / if /it/ not rain / tomorrow
2) Actions, that happening in present but not at this moment:
Now I’m living in New York but it’s temporary.
Я сейчас живу в Нью-Йорке, но это временно.
I'm working hard on my English to get into university.
Я налегаю на английский, чтобы поступить в университет.
3) Something you planned and agreed with other people
Как правило, это планы, в осуществлении которых человек на сто процентов уверен. Если вы записаны к стоматологу, созвонились с другом, чтобы встретиться ровно в пять, собираетесь сдавать экзамены, и расписание известно — смело используйте Present Continuous.
Чтобы собеседник понял, что речь идет о будущем, добавляют слова-маркеры: завтра, в следующий вторник, сегодня вечером и т.д.
I think summer is the best season of all because it is warm, the nature is beautiful and we have great opportunities for rest. Summer is a time of holidays. We can go anywhere, spend our time near a river or a lake on fresh, green grass, swim in warm water, or climb mountains, play different games, ride a bicycle and so on.
I spend my summer holidays at my granny’s. There are many things there to do. What I did most of the time - I swam in the sea and sunbathed. Sometimes I made a fire with my friends at the seaside and cooked potatoes there. It was wonderful. We told anecdotes to each other, and did everything we wanted. I also got used to walk alone in the forest.
When August was coming to its end, I went on a small voyage by ship. The ship name was “Sevastopol”.
But this summer wasn’t for me only sugar and honey. I have passed through the graduating exams after school and entering exams in the university. So the bigger part of my summer vacations I spent sitting with the books. Of course, it was not interesting, but I’m glad that I did it because now I’m a student of the best university in our country.
