Задание 1.

Поставьте наречия и прилагательные в правильные формы.

My cousin Joe likes small villages far more than I do. He says that life there

is much more.relaxed and people are friendlier than in the city. I don’t agree. After all people who live in the country have a lot more problems. Many young people, like me, can hardly stand living in the country. Life is

just not as exciting for us as in the city. But the worst thing of all, when you look at the problem more closely, is that there are far fewer jobs there rhan in the city. But what annoys me most of all is that people are too romantic about country life. And my cousin

always speaks warmly of village life.I think it sounds foolish. But then, of the two of us I am the elder and the more experienced and I have been living in the country twice as long as he has. So I know what I’m talking about. I’m dead certain he will see my point when he has lived in.the country as long as I have. The more I live here,   the more depressed I become.

“Yеs? Don’t stop…” Gabе implогеd hеr. “Just sаy whаtеvеr comes into your head”.

“Now…I am begining to wonder…”

“Wonder what?’

‘If maybe it’s possible”, she whispered, overcome by a sudden new bashfulness, her chin lowered so that she was looking only at the table.

“How would I know? Why do you expect me to know everything?” Jazz said, lifting her head.

“Because I am crazy in love with you, I have been since the minute I saw you and it doesn’t seem possible, it has never happened to me before, so you have to tell me, it’s true”.

“Oh …” Jazz said.

“Are you just going to sit there and say “oh”?

Jazz nodded, incapable of speech. She couldn’t even make a gesture. She just sat there, immobile, knowing that it was enough for her to accept these words and wait. Her hands were trembling as badly as his, but his were warm and hers were cold.

“So that is settled. Love at first sight that’s what it’s called, that’s what has happened to us.”
