1. The chemists of Louisiana State University have found that the popular supplement melatonin has the poten­tial to cause unwanted reactions in the body. Melatonin is sold as a sleeping aid, but it is needed in only low concen­trations as its secondary products which form in the body have a serious effect on health. They can change behaviour, so the use of melatonin may cause more harm than good.

2. The name "alligator" is nothing more than the English pronunciation of the Spanish name of the animal: "el lagarto". The Spaniards, who discovered and explored the warmer parts of America, were the first Europeans to see these huge creatures. For a long time after this dis­covery scientists believed that the South of America was the only place in the world where alligators lived. But in 1870 similar but smaller animals were found in the Yangtze River in China.

3. The researchers from the University of Florida who studied the influence of body temperature on post-exercise appetite said that exercise in cold water instead of warm water might increase people's appetite, making it harder tor them to lose extra pounds. Caloric intake after exer­cise in cold water was 44% higher than after exercise in warm water.

4. South Korea offered to provide its North Korean neighbour with 500,000 metric tons of rice to head off a potential food crisis. The goodwill gesture came after it had been announced that the country would participate in 6-party negotiations on scrapping its nuclear weapons pro­gramme.

5. The Svalbard Treaty was signed in Paris on February 9, 1920 between Norway, the USA, Denmark, France, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Great Britain and Sweden. It proclaimed Norway's full and exclusive sovereignty over Spitsbergen (the Norwegians call it Svalbard). Article 3 enabled all signatories to the Treaty to engage in econom­ic and commercial activities there, while Article 9 for­malized Russia's right to engage in such activities even before the Treaty's ratification. Russia took advantage of this provision, acquiring a number of land plots and launching a coal production operation.

6. Experts say that, just as in case with weather fore­casts, drivers don't fully trust the traffic jam forecasts even if they often prove to be correct. As a result, instead of a single forecasted jam several unexpected blockings occur. A solution to this situation is to have a satellite navigation system in every car. Such a system will advise everyone where to drive.

Speaker 1

Nothing has influenced the American way of life more than a car. The United States are often called a nation on the wheels. And Detroit is the centre of the American automobile industry. The health of Detroit's economy depends heavily on the fortunes of the automotive industry. When the industry suffers, Detroit struggles economically.

Speaker 2

The automobile was one of the greatest inventions. The first cars were built at the end of the 18th century in France. They burned coal and were not very safe. But cars that burned coal were used until the early 20th century.

Speaker 3

In 1885 Carl Benz built the first car in the world with a petrol engine. Benz was a German who worked as an engineer and inventor in Mannheim. His first motor car had only three wheels and passengers sat high up in the open. The speed of his first car was ten miles per hour. Moreover, it was very expensive.

Speaker 4

The car has probably changed society more than any invention in modern times. It has made people much more mobile and given them a freedom to travel that was unavailable to previous generations. It has created a need for roads, which have greatly changed the appearance of towns and cities and the countryside in much of the world.

Speaker 5

The automobile has caused a lot of problems. Millions of people driving passenger cars create huge traffic jams in major cities. The exhaust from automobiles pollutes the air. Each year thousands of people are killed or injured in automobile accidents.

Speaker 6

Henry Ford decided to make a cheap car that everybody could afford. His famous "Model T" was first built in 1908 and became the most popular American car. Henry Ford began making cheaper mass-produced cars that more people could afford.

Задание № 3

Вы услышите рассказ никарагуанского мальчика о своей жизни в Сан-Франциско. В заданиях А8—А14 обведите цифру 1, 2 или 3, соответствующую но­меру выбранного вами варианта ответа. Вы услы­шите запись дважды. У вас есть 50 секунд, чтобы ознакомиться с заданиями.

Now we are ready to start.

My name is Steve Gomez. I am 14. My parents, my sister Diane and I live in a part of San Francisco where most people are Hispanics. Our family emigrated from Nicaragua 11 years ago because of the political trouble there. Nicaragua is a poor country with a lot of unemployment and other problems. Here in the USA you can earn much better wages.

My father gave up his job as an architect, and mummy left the office where she had worked as a secretary. Since our arrival in the USA we have lived in the same part of San Francisco. Diane, who is 16 now, has been in San Francisco since her fifth birthday.

My mum was lucky enough to get a job as a secretary with a Mexican company soon after we arrived in the States. But dad had to work as a bus driver before he finally found work as an architect. He has been with the same firm for three years now.

We always speak Spanish at home. My mummy still can't speak English very well. But she doesn't have to. We have Spanish stores, Spanish newspapers and a Spanish movie theater. And of course we have Channel 14, the Spanish TV station. My father wants to move from our neighbourhood. It has got rough in the past few years. Street gangs of Mexicans and Cubans often fight each other. But my mother wants to stay. She feels comfortable here.

I go to High School. There are special bilingual classes at my school for students who have difficulties with English. In these classes subjects are taught in Spanish, not in English. I don't go to them because I speak English.

After school I go to the boys' club. It's organized by the local church. There's a gym, and we can play football, basketball and other sports. We also have a library and a games room. I go there a lot. The idea of the boys' club is to keep us off the streets while our parents are at work.

At home our parents keep a lot of old traditions and customs alive. My mum always cooks Spanish food. I prefer it to American food. We always celebrate the main Mexican holidays.

If you really want to experience Hispanic life, you should walk around our neighbourhood on Saturday. Then it's market day, and it's really interesting to see the people in the stores and in the streets.
