О книгах и чтении (B1-B2 диалог на английском)
| (1) | How important are books to you? — Насколько важны для вас книги?Books are important of course. Reading good books makes us smarter. Unfortunately, it’s not so popular nowadays because of the Internet. |
| (2) | What would life be like without books? — Какой была бы жизнь без книг?We would know nothing about our history. Our life would be more boring and we would have less subjects to talk about. |
| (3) | What kinds of books do you like? — Какие книги тебе нравятся?In childhood I liked adventures and detectives. Now I’m more interested in history. |
| (4) | Do you prefer paperbacks or hardbacks? — Вы предпочитаете мягкую или твердую обложку?For me it’s not that important. If I buy a book for myself I prefer paperbacks, they are cheaper and more convenient. If I need a book as a present, a hardback is more appropriate I think. |
| (5) | If you wrote a book, what would you write about? — Если бы вы написали книгу, о чем бы вы написали?That’s an interesting question. I like learning foreign languages and a few years ago I wrote a book about my experience of learning English with some useful information for learners. When I’m older and have time, I would write some adventure story or a detective. I think it would be quite interesting. |
| (6) | If you could have only one book for the rest of your life, what would it be and why? — Если бы вы могли иметь только одну книгу на всю оставшуюся жизнь, что бы это было и почему?This is a hard question. I have a few favorite books. If I have to choose only one, I would take “Three Comrades” from Erich Maria Remark. This is a very interesting and deep story about love and friendship. I like to read about people, about their lives, about how they help each other and what they do in hard situations of life. |
| (7) | Do you think the Internet will make books disappear? — Как вы думаете, Интернет заставит книги исчезнуть?I don’t think so. People will always read books. The problem is that children read less, because of the Internet and computer games. |
| (8) | What do you think of the idea of E-books? — Что вы думаете об идее электронных книг?It’s very convenient and I’m glad that E-books exist. However, when I’m at home I prefer reading a real book. I like to have a good book in my hands, turn the paper and so on. There is something pleasant in it. |
| (9) | What book would you recommend for children? — Какую книгу вы порекомендовали бы детям?I’d recommend Oliver Twist by Charls Dickens. |
| (10 | How many books have you read in English? — Сколько книг вы прочитали на английском языке?About ten I think. It was a long time ago when I just started learning English. I prefer reading books in my mother tongue, in Russian. |

| (1) | Who is your favorite author? — Кто ваш любимый автор?I can’t choose only one author. |
| (2) | What do you think of Google’s idea to put all the world’s books on the Internet, accessible for free? — Как вы относитесь к идее Google разместить в Интернете все книги мира бесплатно?I think it’s not bad, if they are still available in shops as an option. Some people don’t like E-books. |
| (3) | Why doesn’t everybody enjoy reading? — Почему не всем нравится читать?They didn’t find their book I think. When you start reading a good book you usually can’t stop. And after you finish it you look for another one. |
| (4) | Do you prefer to keep the books you read? — Вы предпочитаете оставлять книги, которые читаете?I like to exchange them. |
| (5) | What’s the most number of times you have read the same book? — Какое наибольшее количество раз вы читали одну и ту же книгу?I’ve read “The Insulted and Injured” by Dostoevsky two times, because I forgot what it was about. After I read it the second time, I was impressed again. |
| (6) | Which is better, the book or the movie? — Что лучше: книга или фильм?It’s definitely the book. |
| (7) | Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction? — Вы предпочитаете художественную литературу или нет?I prefer reading fiction, but now I’d like to read something about the history of the Second World War. |
| (8) | Do you spend a long time browsing in bookshops? — Вы проводите много времени в книжных магазинах?Not much. I always have a list of books I want to buy. When I don’t know what kind of book I want, I go to the section of classics. It’s always good. |
| (9) | Do you ever read the last page before you start reading a book? — Вы когда-нибудь читали последнюю страницу перед тем, как начать читать книгу?Never! I like reading one chapter by another. It’s much more interesting. |
| (10 | How often do you want the story in a book to never end? — Как часто вы хотите, чтобы история в книге никогда не заканчивалась?Very often. After I finish the book, I start missing the characters and the story. That’s why I always begin looking for a new book. |
