Translate the situations into English: 1. В Англии есть дети, которые не ходят в школу, а выбирают домашнее обучение/образование. Большинство родителей таких
1. In England some children don’t go to school, they choose home education. Most of the parents of such children are teachers but it isn’t so important, as they use online school. The Internet gives them a chance/an opportunity to gain knowledge, test themselves, study/prepare for exams. Different computer programs help them to revise material. There are dozens of training courses on the Internet, children can focus/concentrate on the course they like and keep learning through new courses /that are/ offered by university professors. Nevertheless a lot of teachers think that the greatest disadvantage is that children get used to computers, more and more chat online, play computer games, text friends and seldom meet friends, so to speak, face to face. Scientists are worried by the amount of time schoolchildren spend using their computer/ that schoolchildren spend more time../, but we can’t do without electronic media nowadays.

- Hi, Volodya. How did you do at Maths?
– I was lucky, the questions that I knew came up. How about you?
– Not very good. I messed up two questions. I knew well only the third.
– How come?
– I’m not very good at Maths and I had little time to revise everything.
– There’s no point worrying now. Our next exam is Physics, you are fond of it and you will prepare better for it.
