Professor Warnock enjoys challenges. For some time she has been teaching at Oxford and working in London. Now she is about to take a new job at Cambridge. She likes the idea of (1 – to have) a new job in the year she is 60. She hates (2 – not/to have) something on to go. She prefers (3 – to ask/to do) things rather than (4 – to think) them up for herself, but she would hate (5 – to get up) in the morning and feel there was no purpose to her life. Normally she gets up at 7.30. She doesn’t like (6 – to stay) in bed much. It is no treat (7 – to tell) she needn’t (8 – to get up) until later. She likes (9 – to go) through her post first thing. If she doesn’t read her letters over breakfast she tends (10 – to lose) them. So she tries (11 – to have) a systematic routine first thing.
She still divides her time between London and Oxford. On an Oxford day she starts (12 – to teach) at nine. She has (13 – to fit) her teaching into two days so the earlier she can persuade anyone (14 – to come) the better. She remembers (15 – to think) nine o’clock was outrageously early for a tutorial when she was a student, and some of her students do too. But on the whole they are quite good.
Thank you for your letter. It was so nice to hear from you. I hope your trip was wonderful.
I also traveled a lot this summer. In August, Elena and I were abroad.
We spent two weeks in Scotland in the summer school. We lived and studied in
a good public school. Would you like to know what is there?
Well,in the morning we spent 3 hours learning English. In class we read
and discussed texts, learned poems by heart in English, played ,
asked questions, learn new words used in the computer and
wrote their own stories. But we did not do the translation in Russia, on our
the lesson because we are not done, they speak Russian. We also learned about English history and traditions.
Now we speak and read English much better, we did it last year . I have made many friends in Scotland.
We also spent 3 days in London. I tried to call you but you were not available.
Our impression of the UK and hope to visit it again.
Best wishes from all of us.
Your "lazy children."
Elena and Olga.
