1 In 2008, Alex Lenkei had a problem with the bone in his arm and he needed a serious operation. Normally, with an operation like
5 that, the doctor gives the patient an anaesthetic so that he or she doesn't feel any pain. But Lenkei refused the anaesthetic. Instead, he hypnotised himself and simply told himself that
10 he could not feel any pain. That took about thirty seconds. Then the operation started. According to Mr Lenkei, pain signals do not reach his brain when he is hypnotised.
2 The doctor, David Llewellyn-Clerk, was a bit worried. He had to take some bone from Lenkei's arm. He watched Lenkei carefully during the operation, as he wasn't sure that Lenkei could feel no 20 pain. 'I didn't think Mr Lenkei could hear us,' said Dr Llewellyn-Clerk, 'but half way through the operation, he said "How's it going?" That's when the doctor realised that Lenkei was not 25 in pain. The operation lasted 83 minutes.
3 Mr Lenkei started hypnotising people when he was sixteen and is now an expert. It wasn't
30 his first operation without anaesthetic. In 1996, a friend hypnotised him before a thirty minute operation on his stomach. Both operations were successful, 35 so Lenkei had a third operation without anaesthetic in 2013, this time on his ankle, which also went well.
This folk tale is about grandfather and grandmother, who formed round creature Kolobok from dough. He runs away and meets different animals starting with hare and ending with fox. Kolobok managed to pass through animals because he sang to them. At the end of the tale he meets the fox and she eats Kolobok, because he is not careful. To my mind, the text teaches people to be always careful, even if everything around you is okay. You shouldn’t’t lose your mind because of success.
Объяснение:
Эта народная сказка о дедушке и бабушке, которые создали круглое существо Колобок из теста. Он убегает и встречает разных животных, начиная с зайца и заканчивая лисой. Колобку удалось пройти через животных, потому что он пел им. В конце рассказа он встречает лису, и она съедает Колобка, потому что он неосторожен. На мой взгляд, текст учит людей быть всегда осторожными, даже если все вокруг вас в порядке. Вы не должны забываться из-за успеха
