ЭТО СООР даю 50 балов READING Task1. Read the text carefully and answer the questions. Hurricanes Have you ever been to a hurricane? Hurricanes are serious weather storms. They can do a lot of damage. But what is a hurricane? Another name for a hurricane is a tropical cyclone. A hurricane consists of thunderstorms, torrential rains, and waves with winds up to 75 mph or higher. A hurricane is a tropical storm that starts out in the ocean and gathers speed and strength as it travels. When the winds inside these storms reach 39 mph, they are given names. An international committee developed the list of names. Hurricanes alternate back and forth between male and female names. Giving the hurricanes names makes it easier for meteorologists to identify and track certain storms. This makes it easier to announce hurricane warnings, as well. The best place to be during a hurricane is indoors and away from windows and doors. If the hurricane is very bad, you will probably be asked to evacuate and move to safer ground. It is important to keep a bag ready that contains fresh water, long-lasting food, first aid kit, flashlight, rain gear, and other items that would be useful if you had to leave your home for a few days.

WRITING Task:

Title: My Favorite TV Program

1. I enjoy watching a variety of TV programs, but my favorite is documentary series. I find them fascinating because they provide valuable information on different subjects, cultures, and historical events. They not only entertain me but also educate me at the same time.

2. I don't agree with the statement that "Watching TV makes a person lazy." It depends on what you watch and how you manage your time. If you spend all your time on mindless entertainment, it can make you lazy. However, if you choose educational and informative programs like documentaries, you can expand your knowledge and stay engaged.

3. If I were a TV producer, I would create a documentary series that explores the wonders of the natural world. I would travel to exotic locations and capture the beauty of wildlife, ecosystems, and the impact of climate change. I believe such a program would not only be visually stunning but also raise awareness about the importance of protecting our planet.

4. The genre of my show would belong to the documentary category. It would be a mix of adventure, education, and environmental awareness. By presenting real-life stories and facts, it would engage viewers with a sense of wonder and a desire to learn more about the world around them.

In my essay, I have expressed my preference for documentary programs, disagreed with the idea that TV makes a person lazy when used wisely, shared my vision of a documentary series, and defined the genre of my show.
