Почитаем забавный рассказ на английском языке о школьнике Саймоне Керроте, который совсем не любит учиться.
First I must tell you about myself. I am thirteen and I am in the third form at a school in Manchester. I have a little sister Bess, who is very silly and I have a very clever dog. His name is Pal.
What a bad day Monday was for me! I woke up late and did not have time to eat my breakfast. I did not see my books and my school cap in their places. I looked in my room. I looked in the diningroom. Then I looked into the bathroom and saw my books there. Then I saw my dog Pal under the table with my cap. I put my books into my bag, took my cap and ran very quickly to school.
The first lesson on Monday is maths. What a difficult subject to begin the week with! Mr. Green, the mathematics teacher, took our homework. He saw that my exercise-book was dirty. He gave me a bad mark for it. Then he gave us tasks to do. I sit behind Jane, who is fat and silly. But she likes maths very much and has good marks for it. I asked her to tell me the answers, but she didn’t want to.
The second lesson on Monday is French. I like French. It’s nice to talk to your friends at the lesson in another language. Then it was eleven o’clock — time for break. Nell gave me a piece of cake to eat with my milk and then gave me her homework to copy. I think Nell likes me, and she is a nice girl.
After break we had two lessons of Latin! They are bad lessons: I do not like Latin. I talked to Nell at the lesson and Mr. Williams gave me a hundred words to write in my exercise-book after school. I wrote those words at the lesson when the boys and girls read a Latin book.
Переведем с английского:
И вторая часть рассказа про Саймона Керрота:
В половине первого началась большая перемена для обеда. Я побежал в столовую и сел за стол. Нам давали мясо и овощи на обед. Я не люблю овощи и я ел очень мало в обед. Потом я ходил на игровую площадку со своими друзьями Питом Шарпом и Джоном Фордом и мы играли в футбол.
После обеденного перерыва у нас был урок истории. Обычно я не люблю историю, но этот урок мне очень понравился. Мы изучали битву при Гастинге в 1066 году. Летом мы были в Гастинге и видели все места, о которых рассказывал нам учитель истории.
В три часа у нас был урок, который мне очень нравится. Это игры. Мы ходили на игровую площадку и играли в футбол! Пит ударил Джона, но мистер Темпл, учитель по играм, не видел этого.
После школы, в четыре часа мы с Питом купили мороженого и я пошел к нему домой слушать его новые пластинки. Это хорошие пластинки, и я хочу купить их, но сейчас у меня нет денег.
Я пришел домой в половине восьмого. Мама не разговаривала со мной. Она не любит, когда я прихожу поздно домой после школы. Я получил холодный ужин на кухне. После ужина я сделал свою домашнюю работу по французскому, но я не сделал домашнюю работу по истории, потому что я смотрел телевизор. Я могу сделать ее в школе во время перемены.
Ну, в этом рассказе хоть действительно описали нормального ребенка. А то только какие-то идеальные дети во всех английских текстах:)

First of all, I must tell you about myself. I am thirteen and I am in the third class at a Grammar school in Manchester.What a terrible day! I woke up late and didn’t have time to eat my breakfast. I couldn’t find my books or my school cap. At last I found my books in the bathroom; and at last, I found my cap — my dog was playing with it! I was nearly late for school.
Then he gave us some tasks to do. I sat next to Jane, who was fat and not very pleasant — but very good at Maths. I asked her to tell me the answers, but she didn`t want.
The next lesson was French. I like French. It’s nice to be able to talk to somebody in another language.
At last, it was eleven o’clock: time for break. Nell gave me a piece of cake to eat with my milk. She also gave me her Latin homework to copy. I think she likes me and she’s a nice girl.
After break, we had two lessons of Latin! They are bad: I hate Latin!

I don’t usually like History.
I came home at half past six.
Mum didn’t speak to me.
Schools in England
Schools in England are not the same as in our country. Children begin to go to school when they are five years old. From five to seven they are in infant schools An infant school is like a kindergarten. The children draw and paint, they sing and listen to stories which the teacher reads to them. They also play games. In these schools they begin to learn to read and write.
From seven to eleven children in England go to a junior school. Here they all learn to read and write and do mathematics.
From eleven to sixteen boys and girls in England go to a secondary school. They begin to learn in form one. The sixth form is the last form in this school. They have many subjects in their time-table.
In England schoolchildren do not go to schools on Saturdays and Sundays.
Lena Describes Her Classroom
I am in the sixth form. Our classroom is on the second floor of the school. There are twenty-one desks in the classroom and two pupils sit at each desk.
The teacher’s desk is in front of the pupils’ desks. The blackboard is on the wall on the teacher’s left. The chalk and the duster are in a box near the blackboard.
There are four very large windows on the side of the room opposite the door. We open the windows during the break between lessons.
There are portraits on the wall over the blackboard. There are pictures and maps hanging on the walls in the classroom.
There are lamps hanging above the desks. In winter it is dark early. Then we turn on the light and the classroom is light.
We begin our lessons at half past eight in the morning. We have four or five lessons a day. We have a short break of ten minutes between lessons, but between the second and third lessons we have a long break of twenty minutes. During the long break we go to the dining-room and have lunch. We finish our lessons at ten minutes past twelve.
Five years ago my grandparents lived in the village of Smalville in Florida. We visited them every summer. Every day we helped with their farm. They didn’t have a car, but they had
a brown horse and a cart. They also had two cows and a very big bull. I wasn’t afraid of him because he was good. He was three years old and was born on the farm. My grandparents had some hens and sheep too and a beautiful dog, Ted, but they didn’t have any cats. Near their house there was a river. My grandad swam but I didn’t because I was too small. We liked the farm. We were very happy there. Last year my grandparents sold their house and some of their animals and moved to a village near Los Angeles. I am glad they didn’t sell their horse or their dog. Last month we visited them. Their new house and village are beautiful. I want to visit them again soon.
