My dialogue
Passenger:
Flight attendant:
A trip around the world is a great opportunity to forget about the routine for a while and meet every morning
in a new city with new adventures. At first glance, such an idea seems a bit adventurous, and immediately the
rather difficult and sometimes dangerous travels of Phileas Fogg from 80 Days Around the World come to
mind. But, fortunately, we live in the 21st century and we have a completely safe way to go around the world.
The world tour will cover 375 ports in 135 countries. Tourists will
be able to visit 13 of the 14 wonders of the world, and they will
spend a third of the nights in hotels on land during stops of 2-
3 days. The cost of the cruise starts from USD 30 thousand per
year, meaning that the entire tour will cost almost USD 90
thousand.
The cruise organizers claim that this tour is ideal for digital
nomads who will have a unique opportunity to travel the world
and work at the same time, paying a little more than $80 per
day for "rent".
Would you go on such a trip if you had enough money for it?
Would you be able to survive 3 years on a cruise?
In theory, does your job allow you to work online and travel?
What countries would you like to visit the most?
Is 90 thousand dollars too much for such a trip?
What exactly would you like to do on this cruise? Describe
your day
Why do you think people take these trips?

Reading Try to describe these hobbies verbally and explain what people do during them
MIKE
My hobbies are reading books and working out. Along
with this, I also like cooking. While researching the
company, I got to know about the in-house gym.
Having a gym in the workplace is a great idea as
employees can get to know each other better on a
casual level apart from their designated roles.
KATE
I usually spend my leisure time reading books or
playing badminton. I like reading new and trending
novels and my favourite genres include suspense,
horror and thriller novels. Being a voracious reader, I
believe that I have a strong vocabulary and
knowledge of grammar. My zeal for writing gets its
flair from my passion for reading books.
VICTORIA
I have a pet dog named Cookie and spending time
with him is one of my favourite things to do. I also
love to travel and I often plan trips with my family. But
solo travelling gives me the bliss that I crave for. Every
year I look forward to exploring new places and
catching up on some lifetime memories.
NATALY
I like learning new skills and recently I have been
interested in exploring different languages as they
help me explore new cultures around the world. I
started learning Spanish online and I have already
cleared the beginner level. I generally spend my
weekends focusing on exploring new Spanish words
and watching Spanish movies to strengthen my
grasp over the language.

Carving on books
This is an unusual art called book-carving. Someone admires it,
and someone calls it savage, considering it a mockery of books.
But many of the richest galleries in the world are chasing these
extraordinary "sculptures" and recognize that it is a
contemporary art form. Book carving is popular all over the
world, but it requires patience, hard work and accuracy. It is a
hobby for hardworking people with an artistic mindset.
Nail paintings
If you know how to hold a hammer, try creating paintings from
nails. The British artist Marcus Levine has been doing this for a
long time, and exhibitions of his work attract crowds of people
who want to see the result of an unusual hobby.
Street art is another unusual drawing that uses nails, but here
the nails are connected to each other with threads, creating a
very effective panel. With the help of colorful threads, it is easy
to create a cheerful picture for a good mood.

TASK
MAKE UP
GUESS WHAT THING IS DESCRIBED IN THE TEXT
1 The makeup base is applied according to your skin type. Using the concealer, we mask all
bumps, hide minor imperfections or skin rashes. The medium-density texture of the
foundation is evenly spread over the entire face.
To give the skin a light shimmering effect, apply highlighter to all prominent parts of the
face. Use your fingertips to apply the product to the center of the nose, the line under the
eyebrows and the cheekbones.
2
3 The cheekbone line is highlighted with blush. Apply a natural bronze blush to the
cheekbones with a beveled brush. Blend the blush towards the corners of the lips. The
borders of the blush should be invisible, the transition to the main skin tone blurred.
Peach and golden shades of eyeshadow are used in the eye makeup. With a fluffy brush,
the shadows are evenly spread over the entire upper eyelid, and a line is made at the lower
eyelid. The shadows are slightly blended, giving a slightly almond-shaped shape. Often the
singer uses a combination of golden and pink shades, as a result, we get a wet eye effect.
4
5 We go through the eyelashes with mascara, comb through and separate the lashes glued
together with a brush. Draw eyebrows with a pencil, fill in all the gaps with thin strokes.
Fix the result with gel.
Red lips have become the main accent in the star's makeup. With a pencil, you need to
walk along the contour of the lips and fill them with color, then blend the lines. Apply red
lipstick with a brush. The lipstick must be matte, and to keep the color intense for longer, it
is applied directly to the pencil.
6
At the end of the makeup, powder with a matting effect is applied to the T-zone of the
face.

Amancio was born in 1936. His father was a railway worker and didn’t earn much
money. The family sometimes couldn’t afford food and his mother used to ask for
credit at the grocery store, but one day they said no. That was the moment Amancio
decided to leave school and get a job. He was just 14. Amancio’s first job was in a shirt
shop.
He used to fold the shirts and deliver them to customers on his bike. Then he moved
to another shop, where he learned a lot about the industry. Clothes used to be quite
expensive and there wasn’t much choice, so customers didn’t use to buy many.
Amancio realized that if he could produce more attractive clothes more cheaply,
people would spend more money
So, at the age of 27, and with just a little money that he’d saved, Amancio started his
own business making pyjamas, which he sold to local shops. After borrowing some
money from a bank, he began making other types of clothes and the business grew.
In 1975, Amancio opened his first Zara shop and the company soon opened more
shops in Spain.
Today, you can find Zara and the other fashion companies Amancio owns in 88
different countries around the world, but he still lives in Galicia, where he grew up.
