Task 1. Read the text, translate the last passage into English:
Miss Green was very fat. She weighed 100 kilos, and she was getting heavier every month, so she went to see her doctor.
He said, ‘You need a diet, Miss Green, and I’ve got a good one here.’ He gave her a small book and said, ‘Read this carefully and eat the things on page 11 every day. Then come back and see me in two weeks’ time.’
Miss Green came again two weeks later, but she wasn’t thinner: she was fatter. The doctor was surprised and said, ‘Are you eating the things on page 11 of the small book?’
‘Yes, doctor,’ she answered.
Հաջորդ օրը բժիշկը ճաշի ժամին այցելեց օրիորդ Գրինին: Օրիորդը շատ զարմացավ՝ տեսնելով նրան:
-Օրիո՛րդ Գրին,- ասաց բժիշկը,- ինչո՞ւ եք կարտոֆիլ և հաց ուտում: Դրանք ձեր դիետայի մեջ չեն մտնում:
-Բայց, բժի՛շկ,- պատասխանեց օրիորդ Գրինը,- ես նախաճաշին եմ հետևել իմ դիետային: Սա իմ ճաշն է:

Carol Roberts left school when she was seventeen and then thought, ‘What’s going to happen now? I want to marry a nice, young man and have children, but no nice, young men have asked me yet. Will I meet one soon, and will he want to marry me?’
She spoke to her best friend about these questions, and her best friend said.
‘Go and ask a fortune-teller. Perhaps she’ll give you the answers.’’
So Carol went to see a fortune-teller. The fortune-teller said to her, ‘I’ll give you answers to two questions. It’ll cost you five pounds.’
