Hi, my name is (your name). I am often asked if I believe in horoscopes? According to my horoscope, I am Aquarius, while I do not believe in all the predictions written in a magazine or a special horoscope. This is a rather boring task, I have a lot of different things to do besides reading horoscopes. I think that all the writing in the horoscope is complete nonsense, and there is no truth in this. At school, some friends advise me to do what is written in the horoscope, but I do not betray this value. I do not think that people who read horoscopes are stupid, because each person runs out what to do and no one can stop him. Therefore, I try not to argue with a person who is fond of horoscopes.

Привет, меня зовут(твоё имя). меня часто спрашивают верю ли я в гороскопы? По гороскопу я водолей, при этом я не верю во все предсказания написанные в журнале или специальном гороскопе. Это довольно скучное задание, у меня есть много разных дел по мимо того чтобы читать гороскопы. Я считаю что всё написание в гороскопе это полный бред, и в этом во всём нет никакой правды. В школе некоторые друзья мне советуют делать то ,что написано в гороскопе, но я не предаю этому значению. Я не считаю что люди которые читают гороскопы глупы, ведь каждый человек выбегает что ему делать и не кто не сможет его остановить. По этому я стараюсь не спорить с человеком который увлекается гороскопами.

Next, let's move on to the reading task.
Task: Read the statements, decide if they are TRUE or FALSE and explain your choice.
The power of advertising over kids.
1. Advertising has an influence on everyone in one way or another, but it especially has had an influence on children.
Explanation: This statement is TRUE. The text clearly states that advertising has an influence on everyone, but it particularly impacts children.
2. Advertising influences children’s choice of toys. If a television commercial displays children laughing and playing, children think it must be a great toy, regardless of the type. For example, my three-year-old desperately wants a skateboard for Christmas. Every time he sees a skateboard commercial, he gets excited. He believes that if he had a skateboard, he would instantly have the same fun and skill as the boys on television.
Explanation: This statement is TRUE. The text provides an example of how advertising influences children's choice of toys by showing them commercials of children enjoying the toys. The author's own experience with their three-year-old wanting a skateboard supports this statement.
3. Another influence advertising has had is on the clothes children want to wear. Clothes from Wal-Mart and K-Mart are no longer satisfactory. Brand names such as GAP, Tommy Hilfiger, and American Eagle are much more appealing to them. My teenage daughter is constantly looking through catalogs and magazines, examining each outfit down to the last detail. She continuously wants to change her wardrobe to keep up with the latest fashion trends and most popular brand names.
Explanation: This statement is TRUE. The text mentions that advertising influences the clothes children want to wear, with brand names becoming more appealing to them. The author's own experience with their teenage daughter wanting to change her wardrobe supports this statement.
4. Last, advertising influences the food children want to eat. Cartoon characters are placed on boxes of foods such as crackers and cereal to influence young children.
Explanation: This statement is TRUE. The text states that advertising influences the food children want to eat, using cartoon characters to attract young children to specific products.
5. As long as companies target our youth with advertising jingles, slogans, and cartoon characters, children and teenagers will continue to be influenced by the product with the most advertising appeal.
Explanation: This statement is TRUE. The text concludes by stating that as long as companies continue to target children and teenagers with advertising techniques, they will continue to be influenced by products with the most advertising appeal.
