THE PLANETS
The Moon is made of silver,
The Sun is made of gold,
And Jupiter is made of tin,
So the ancients told.
Venus is made of copper,
Saturn is made of lead,
And Mars is made of iron,
So the ancients said.
But what the Earth was made of
Very long ago
The ancients never told us
Because they didn’t know.
Eleanor Farjeon
(Infinitive)
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily,
To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
William Shakespeare
to garnish - украшать, отделывать
A SUMMER MORNING
I saw dawn creep across the sky,
And all the gulls go flying by.
I saw the sea put on its dress
Of blue mid-summer loveliness,
And heard the trees begin to star
Green arms of pine and juniper.
I heard the wind call out and say:
“Get up, my dear, it is to-day!”
Rachel Field
pine and juniper – сосна и можжевельник
***
There was an old woman
And nothing she had,
And so this old woman
She’d nothing to eat,
She’d nothing to wear,
She’d nothing to lose,
She’d nothing to fear,
She’d nothing to ask,
And nothing to give,
And when she did die
She’d nothing to leave.
Nursery rhyme
(Participle I and II, Gerund)
You never think of worrying
What’s the use of worrying
When your bus has left the stop
You’dbetter drop your hurrying
What’s the use of hurrying
Leave me alone Mrs. Vanderbilt
I’ve got plenty of the time of my own
Just what’s the use of worrying
What’s the use of hurrying
What’s the use of anything

(The Modal Verbs)
A child should always say what’s true
And speak when he is spoken to,
And behave mannerly at table
At least as far as he is able.
Robert Louis Stevenson
(mannerly – воспитанно, учтиво)
(Стихотворение построено на разнице между тремя типами условных предложений)
Will you come? Would you come?
Will you come? Would you come
Will you ride If the noon
So late Gave light,
At my side? Not the moon?
O, will you come? Beautiful, would you come?
Will you come? Would you have come?
Will you come Would you have come
If the night Without scorning, (насмешка)
Has a moon Had it been
Full and bright? Still morning?
O, will you come? Beloved, would you have come?
If you come,
Haste and come.
Owls have cried,
It grows dark
To ride.
Beloved, beautiful, come!
Edward Thomas
(Conditional Sentences)
SCRAMBLE (Путаница)
If the zebra were given the spots of the leopard
And the leopard the stripes of the zebra
Then the leopard would have to be renamed the zeopard,
And the zebra retitled the lebra.
And wouldn’t we laugh if the gentle giraffe
Swapped his neck for the hump of the camel?
For the camel would henceforth be called the camaffe,
The giraffe designated giramel.
It would be very funny, if the ears of the bunny
Were exchanged for the horns of the sheep.
For the sheep would then surely be known as the shunny,
And the bunny quite simply the beep.
Jack Prelutsky
