A man was wandering around
A man was wandering around a fairground and he happened to see a fortuneteller's tent.
Thinking it would be good for a laugh, he went inside and sat down.
"Ah..." said the woman as she gazed into her crystal ball.
"I see you are the father of two children."
"Some fortuneteller," scoffed the man, "I'm the father of THREE children."
The woman grinned and said, "That's what YOU think!"

The Tramp
A tramp was sleeping on a park bench late at night.
A man and woman were walking past.
One of them tapped him on the shoulders and asked:
"Excuse me!
What's the time?"
The tramp was very annoyed at being woken up.
"I don't know!”
He said angrily. “I haven't got a watch."
And he went back to sleep.
Sometime later another man was passing.
He woke the tramp up and said:
"I'm sorry to bother you, but I wonder if you could tell me what time it is."
Again the tramp said that he didn't know.
By now he was very fed up, so he got a pen and a piece of paper and wrote I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TIME IS on it, and went back to sleep.
Half an hour later a policeman was passing.
He read the sign, woke the tramp up and said: "It's 2.30, sir."

Как научиться понимать английскую речь на слух: несколько полезных советов
1. Слушайте различные аудиоматериалы регулярно
Невозможно научиться танцевать, наблюдая, как пары кружат в вальсе, нужно самому пуститься в пляс! А как понимать английский на слух, не прилагая усилий? Скорее переходите от теории к практике, от слов — к делу. Слушайте аудиоуроки, подкасты, песни, смотрите фильмы и сериалы на английском языке (ориентируйтесь на свой уровень знаний). Главное — подобрать увлекательный для себя материал. Попробуйте пробудить в себе интерес, полюбить аудирование, тогда заниматься им будет намного проще.
Еще один важный момент: занимайтесь регулярно. Если вы будете уделять хотя бы 20-30 минут ежедневно прослушиванию различных аудиозаписей, то уже через пару недель почувствуете небольшой прогресс. Если это станет вашей хорошей привычкой, через несколько месяцев можно улучшить восприятие английского на слух (срок зависит от ваших способностей и наличия музыкального слуха).
2. Занимайтесь по аудиокнигам Аудиокниги сами по себе — отличный ресурс для развития навыка аудирования.
Однако если вам сложно понимать речь диктора, то прослушивание может превратиться в настоящие муки. В таком случае мы рекомендуем использовать замечательную технику работы с аудиокнигами. Найдите текст записи и читайте его про себя параллельно с диктором. Минут через 10-20 вы привыкните к темпу речи и голосу спикера, вам будет легче распознавать слова на слух. Закройте текст и слушайте аудиозапись. Может быть, вы не поймете каждое слово, но заметите, что улавливаете большую часть того, что говорит диктор. А если слушать книгу каждый день, то через некоторое время вы будете спокойно обходиться без текста.

Two young women
Two young women were out walking in the country on a hot summer’s day when they saw a beautiful lake close to the road.
‘It’s so hot! Let’s go for a swim in that lake to cool down!’ suggested the first woman.
‘But we haven’t got any swimming things to put on,’ said the other, ‘ We can’t swim naked!’
‘Oh, don’t worry about that!’ reassured the first woman, ‘ There’s nobody here to see us.’
So they took off all their clothes and got into the lovely cool water for a swim.
After only a few minutes they noticed a farmer walking towards the lake carrying a large bucket.
‘Are you here to ask us to get out of the lake?’ the first woman asked.
‘I think he’s here to look at us!’ said the second woman.
The old farmer frowned and held up the bucket for them to see.
‘No, I’m not here to tell you to get out of the lake and I didn’t come here to watch you ladies swim naked.’ he replied.
‘I’m just here to feed the alligator.’
Reassured - to make someone feel less worried about something
