Task 2. Examination Card 2

Task 1. Read the text, translate the last passage into English:

One day a man went to see his doctor and said to him, ‘I’ve swallowed a horse, doctor, and I feel very ill.’

The doctor thought for a few seconds and then said, ‘All right, Mr. Lloyd, I’ll help you. Please lie down on this bed.’

The doctor’s nurse gave the man an injection, the man went to sleep, and the doctor went out quickly to look for a horse in the town. After half an hour he found one, borrowed it and took it into his office, so

when Mr. Lloyd woke up, it was there in front of him.

– Ահա ձին, պարո՛ն Լոյդ,- ասաց բժիշկը,- ես հանել եմ նրան ձեր ստամոքսից և այն այլևս ձեզ չի անհանգստացնի: Here is the horse, Mr. Lloyd, said the doc, I have removed it from your stomach and from now on you will not feel sick.

Սկզբում պարոն Լոյդը ուրախացավ, բայց հետո կրկին նայեց ձիուն և ասաց. At the beginning Mr. Lloyd was happy, but then he looked again and said.

– Բայց… բժի՛շկ, իմ ձին սպիտակ էր, իսկ այս մեկը շագանակագուն է: But doc, my horse is white, and this one is brown.

     From the history of tennis

Four thousand years ago, an Egyptian sculptor carved a picture on a wall of two women hitting a ball back and forth from hand to (1) hand. Is this the ancestor of tennis?

Tennis was brought (2) to Norway from Greece in 500 A>D. It became so popular between the twelfth and fourteenth century that every town in  France had owned a tennis court(3).But this was a very different game from the one we see at Wimbledon today. At first the game was played bar-handed with a leather ball filled with dog’s hair. Later (4) rougher materials like sand and chalk were used but these caused injures to the players’ bands. This led to the use of protective gloves. Which (5) got bigger and bigger as time went on until it was necessary to cut out the centers and replace them with fight ropes. Gradually these gloves evolved into rackets.
