Answer the questions : Why did the Italians eat with the forks?
What did he give at home to show the invention of the Italians?
Why did his friends begin to laugh?
When did people in England begin to use forks?
Текст : In 1608 an Englishman whose name was Thomas Coryate visited Italy.
He liked the country and noted down every interesting thing he found.
But there was one thing which he found more interesting than the others.
In his diary Thomas wrote, "When the Italians eat meat, they use small forks.
They do not eat with hands because, as they say, people do not always have clean hands.
" Before leaving for England, Thomas Coryate bought a few forks.
At home Thomas gave a dinner party to show the invention to his friends.
When the servants brought the steak, he took out a fork and began to eat like they did in Italy.
Everybody looked at him in surprise.
When he told his friends what it was, they all wanted to take a good look at the strange thing.
All his friends said that the Italians were very strange people because the fork was very inconvenient.
Thomas Coryate tried to prove the opposite.
He said it was not nice to eat meat with one's fingers because they were not always clean.
Everybody got angry at that.
Did Mr Coryate think that people in England always had dirty hands?
And weren't the ten fingers we had enough for us?
Thomas Coryate wanted to show that it was very easy to use the fork.
But the first piece of meat he took with the fork fell to the floor.
His friends began to laugh and he had to take the fork away.
Only fifty years later did people in England begin to use forks.

Перевидите пожалуйста текст и ответе на вопросы Kino was a poor pearl diver.
One day, a scorpion stung his baby, so he took the baby to the doctor.
But Kino didn't have any money.
He only had some very poor quality pearls.
The doctor didn't want to treat the baby, so the doctor's servant lied to Kino : 'The doctor has gone out.
' Later that day, Kino went diving for pearls.
While he was diving, he saw a very large oyster.
He swam down and down and picked up the oyster.
Then he came to the surface.
He took his knife and opened the shell of the oyster.
Inside, there was an enormous, beautiful pearl - the greatest pearl in the world!
Kino and his wife Juana were very happy.
Now they would have enough money to educate their son and maybe buy new clothes and even a rifle.
The news of the pearl spread through the town very quickly.
That evening, lots of neighbours came to their house and they talked about what Kino and Juana could do with the money.
The doctor and his servant also came to the house, because they had heard about the pearl.
The doctor made Kino and Juana afraid about the scorpion sting.
He gave the baby medicine, which he said would save him.
The doctor looked around the house, because he knew that they had hidden the pearl somewhere.
In the middle of the night, while Kino and his family were sleeping, Kino suddenly heard a noise.
Someone was trying to get the pearl!
In the darkness, Kino jumped up with his knife but someone hit him on the head and ran away.
The next morning he took the pearl to the pearl dealers in the main square of the town.
There were many dealers but they all worked for one man and they always gave the divers the lowest possible price for their pearls.
Kino went to different dealers but they all said that the pearl was too big and ugly and that it wasn't worth more than 1, 500 pesos.
Kino was very angry He decided to go to the capital city because he knew that the pearl was very valuable.
But that night someone attacked him outside his house.
Juana said that the pearl was evil and that it was going to destroy them.
She tried to throw the pearl into the sea but Kino stopped her.
Soon afterwards, he was attacked in the darkness by a group of men.
He defended himself with his knife and killed one of the men.
' Kino and Juana knew that they had to get away from the town but someone had made a hole in the bottom of their canoe couldn't go by sea.
When they went back to their house, they found it in flames so they hid in Kino's brother's house.
When night came, Juana and Kino started to walk towards the mountains with their baby.
Kino was still determined to get to the capital and sell the pearl and kept making plans about the future.
During the day, they found a place to hide.
They were resting when they saw that three hunters were following them.
They hid and stayed very quiet until the hunters had gone past.
Then they ran to the mountains.
High in the mountains, they found a stream and a waterfall.
They drank water and then decided to hide in one of the caves under the waterfall.
That evening, the hunters arrived and camped next to the waterfall.
Juana couldn't keep the baby quiet so Kino decided to go down and try to kill the men.
He was just about to attack them when the hunters heard the baby.
They thought that it was a dangerous animal.
A man fired his rifle just as Kino attacked.
Kino then took the man's rifle and killed him and the other men.
But suddenly everything went very quiet and Kino knew that something was wrong.
He went back to the cave.
The baby was dead!
He had been hit by the first rifle shot.
Kino and Juana walked back to the town carrying the body of their dead baby.
They walked slowly.

It was grey and ugly, and in the pearl he could see evil faces.
He offered the pearl to Juana but she said softly, 'No, you.

THE BLACK CATMy friend and I lived in the country last summer.
We lived in a small house which stood in the garden.
Every night a big black cat came to our house and ate our fish, meat and bread.
We tried to catch him many times but we could not.
One day my friend saw the cat under a small bench which stood at the fence.
He came up to the bench with a small fish at the end of a long line and put it under the bench where the cat sat.
The cat caught the fish.
Then my friend caught the line.

A rich American went to Paris and bought a very strange picture painted by a fashionable modern artist.
The American thought the picture was very fine because he had paid a lot of money for it.
But when he came to his hotel and wanted to hang the picture up on the wall, he could not tell which was the top and which the bottom of the picture.
The American turned the picture this way and that, but still could not decide which was the top and which was the bottom.
So he thought of a plan.
He hung the painting in the dining - room and invited the artist to dinner.
When the artist came, the American said nothing to him about the picture.
When the artist began to eat his soup, he looked at the picture many times.
When he began to eat his fish, he put on his glasses and looked at the picture again.
Before he began to eat his fruit, he got up and walked over to the picture to look at it more closely.
At last when they began to drink their coffee, he understood that the picture was upside down.
"Why, my friend", he said, "my picture is hung upside down".
"Oh, is it?
" said the American.
"Why didn't you tell me so at once?
"
"Well, you see, I was not sure myself at first", said the artist.

He had so little money that he could pay only for the ticket.
As he knew that the trip would last only two days, he decided not to eat during these days.

When dinner time came, he was very hungry, but he didn't go to the dining - room.
In the evening he was still more hungry, but when the waiter came to invite him to have supper, the Englishman said that he was ill.

OF THE PARENTS OF THOMAS WINGFIELD Thomas Wingfield was born here in the very room where I write today.
My grandfather had only one son – my father.
His great wish was to make a priest of him, but my father did not like the idea.
Still he could not disobey his father and was obliged to go to a convent and prepare for his profession.
But he behaved so badly that the prior at last begged my grandfather to take his son home.
When the boy grew older my grandfather decided to send him to Spain to study at a convent.
My father agreed to go to Spain, for he wanted to see the world.
A year later a priest came from Spain and told my grandfather that his son had been fired from the convent and they had not heard anything of him since.
Two years later the news came that my father had fallen into the hands of the Inquisition and had been tortured to death.
My grandfather was very sad, though he did not really believe that his son was dead and always awaited his return.
… But it was only three years after the old man’s death that my father came home with his young wife who was a Spaniard.
My father never spoke about his life in Spain.
But once I saw white scars on his body.
I asked my father about them.
“Thomas”, he said, “There is a country called Spain where your mother was born.
There these devils live.
They torture men and women and burn them alive in the name of Christ.
The enemy of your mother betrayed me into their hands.
They made these scars on my body and did not burn me because your mother saved me.
Never speak of this, Thomas, for the Inquisition has a long arm.
