Task 1
Imagine that you are preparing a project with your friend. You have found some interesting material for the presentation and you want to read this text to your friend. You have 1.5 minutes to read the text silently, then be ready to read it out aloud. You will not have more than 1.5 minutes to read it.
Many lands that had once been swamps were drained or filled in. There are different reasons why people drained swamplands. Some were drained to fight diseases caused by insects that lived in them. Because swamps were considered unpleasant places in which to live and harmful to health, many people thought that unless they were drained the land was worthless.
Other swamps were drained to make new land. As the population grew and more land was needed, people drained swamps or filled them to make room for more farms and factories, more roads and airports.
Few people thought that it might be harmful to get rid of swamps. As swamps disappeared, other things happened. There were both more floods and more droughts than before. There were also more fires, for swamps had acted as firebreaks. Hunters noticed that there was less wild game. Wild life that once lived in the swamps was dying out, because it had no place to live.

ВАРИАНТ ОТВЕТА:
ВВЕДЕНИЕ:
I found two pictures in my album and I am going to compare and contrast them.
1. give a brief description of the photos (action, location)
In both pictures you can two see views. The first picture shows a big city with a bridge and skyscrapers. The second one depicts a countryside view with a hill, road, village houses and trees.
2. say what the pictures have in common
These pictures have some things in common. First of all, these are two kinds of settlements, a village and city ones. Second, in both pictures we can see houses. It looks like early morning. Perhaps summer.
3. say in what way the pictures are different
There are some differences as well. First, it’s a city and a village. One looks strict and official whereas the other soft and relaxing. In the first picture there are a bridge and a river, in the second one a hill and a road. The houses are different as well. One is big, concrete and high, compared to small, cozy and tranquil.
4. say which kind of life you’d prefer
Personally, I would prefer city life. I’ve been living in a big city for a long time and I feel quite comfortable there.
5. explain why
Big cities give a lot of opportunities and I like it. A lot of new and interesting events take place in big cities and I like taking part in it.
