Making music

1.Complete the text with the words in the list.
When Mick Jagger started a band called The Rolling Stones in 1962 with a few friends, he had no idea how successful they would become. The Stones recorded their first single, Come on, a song by the singer Chuck Berry, and released it on 7 June, 1963. They never performed it when they played gigs because it wasn’t their song. But their fans found out about the record, and so many people bought it that it entered the charts in the UK and went to number 21. Of course, in those days, fans had to go to record shops; they couldn’t jast download music from the Internet! Mick Jagger and Keith Richards wrote a lot of songs that became very famous. In 1964, The Rolling Stones went on their first tour of the US. When they came back, they had their first number one hit in the UK,. ‘It’s All Over Now’.

Հոլիվուդի կյանքը և պատմությունը․ թարգմանություն

Hollywood — its life and times

20-րդ դարի սկզբին հարավային Կալիֆորնիայում ծովի կողքին մի հարթ մակերևույթի սկսվում էր նոր քաղաքի կյանքը։ Դրա անունն էր Լոս Անջելես՝ կոչվել է Իսպանական հին հանձնարարության անունով, որն այդտեղ էր երկար տարիների ընթացքում։

Նույն ժամանակին ծնվում էր նոր ճյուղ՝ կինոն։ Ամերիկայում նրանց անվանում էին «շարժանկարներ», ինչը շուտով փոխվեց և կոչվեց «ֆիլմեր»։

Ամերիկայի ֆիլմերի կյանքը սկսվեց Նյու Յորքում։ 1910 թվականին ֆիլմեր ստեղծողները տեղափոխվում էին Լոս Անջելես։ Նյու Յորքում ամեն ինչ չափազանց թանկ էր՝աշխատողները, տարածքը, հարկերը։ Բացի այդ նաև բարդ էր ձմռանը ֆիլմեր սարքելը, քանի որ շատ ցուրտ էր։

Համեմատաբար Լոս Անջելես տարածաշրջանը ուներ բազմաթիվ առավելություններ։ Կալիֆորնիայում կարելի էր ֆիլմեր պատրաստել ամբողջ տարվա ընթացքում, և ամեն ինչ ավելի էժան էր։ Մասնավորապես այդտեղի շատ տարածք վաճառվում էր։

Ֆիլմեր ստեղծողները հասկացան, որ նրանց նաև մի քանի կիլոմետր է պետք Լոս Անջելեսից դուրս, և քիչ ժամանակ անց, չոր բլուրների մոտ՝ Հոլիվուդ կոչված տարածքում, կառուցվում էին հսկայական կինոստուդիաներ։

Ֆիլմերը շատ արագ հանրաճանաչ դարձան, մանավանդ, երբ 1925 թվականին հայտնվեցին խոսուն շարժապատկերները։ Այնուամենայնիվ ֆիլմեր ստեղծելը շատ ծախսեր էր պահանջում, և ֆիլմերի կազմակերպություններին գումար էր պետք, շատ գումար։ Այդ պատճառով Հոլիվուդը արագորեն անցավ մեծ կազմակերպությունների՝MGM, 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros, իշխանությանը։

Այդտեղից սկսած մեծ կազմակերպություններն ունեցել են իրենց վերելքները և վատ իրավիճակները, սակայն նրանցից շատերը դեռ կան։ Որոշ հին անուններն այլևս չկան, բայց նորերն են ավելացել,՝ կազմակերպություններ, ինչպիսիք են Walt Disney և Սթիվեն Սփիլբերգի կազմակերպություն Amblin-ը։

Բնականաբար Հոլիվուդն ունեցել է իր փոփոխությունները վերջին 80 տարիների ընթացքում։ Այսօր մեծագույն կինոստուդիաները պատկանում են հսկայական միջազգային ֆիրմաներին։ Օրինակ՝ News Corporation-ին, որին հիմա պատկանում է Fox-ը նաև պատկանում են լրագրեր երեք մայրցամաքներում(հաշվի առնելով Times of London-ը) և հեռուստատեսության ցանցեր Ամերիկայում, Եվրոպայում և Ասիայում։

Միայն Fox-ի պես հսկայական կազմակերպություններն են կարող իրենց թույլ տալ պատրաստել այսօրվա շատ թանկ ֆիլմերը։ Նույնիսկ «Տիտանիկ»-ի համար՝ որն այդ ժամանակ եղել է ամենաթանկ ֆիլմը, Fox-ին օգնություն էր պետք մեկ այլ մեծ կազմակերպությունից՝ Paromount-ից։

Առաջ Հոլիվուդը միայն կարող էր ֆիլմեր պատրաստել Ամերիկայի համար։ Այսօր այդ նույն ֆիլմերը պետք է պատրաստել ամբողջ աշխարհի համար։ Լոս Անջելեսի արվարձանը դարձել է համաշխարհային երազանք-սարքի կենտրոնը։ Գուցե առաջ մենք երազում էինք այլ կերպ։ Այսօր՝ Հոլիվուդի շնորհիվ, ամեն վայրում ապրող մարդիկ ունեն նման երազանքներ։

Հիմա մենք ապրում ենք ոսկե մշակույթի դարում։ Հոլիվուդը չէ ստեղծել այս մշակույթ, բայց թե՛ լավ, թե՛ վատ կողմից այն դարձել է դրա ամենահզոր մասնիկներից մեկը։ Ուզենք, թե չուզենք, մենք հիմա ապրում ենք Հոլիվուդ մոլորակում։

The Internet in my life. The advantages and disadvantages of Media education.

I find it interesting, how people of different age groups use internet for different purposes. My generation uses internet, social media for entertainment and education, while older generations use it as a source of information. In my life the internet is very important. I try to get only the useful things out of it, even though sometimes I use it just to kill time.

When it comes to education the internet has a lot of advantages, but it also has many disadvantages. The biggest advantage is that you can find anything on the internet. It’s a huge place with endless sources of information. But on the other hand not everyone uses it correctly. You can use it for learning, for watching movies, listening to music and so many other things. But you have to be careful with what you watch, read or do.

Media has been very useful during the past year in our country, especially for students. The virus, the war were two big challenges, which made it hard to continue going to school, but with the help of the internet we moved it to a place, where physical connection wasn’t necessary. Of course, it had its own issues, but that was the best we could get.

In conclusion I can say that the internet has a very big impact on everyone and every year we need it more and more. The important thing is to know what you want from it and not forget about the real world.

My school Trips

On January 13, we traveled to Ashtarak together with the founding director Mr. Bleyan. Miss. Azniv and Miss. Julie were with us. We left by bus in the morning. We were traveling on the road adjacent to the newly built north-south highway, as it has not been put into operation yet. It is true that we met Miss. Azniv in Ashtarak, near the statue of Nerser Ashtaraketsi, but then we started the joint march from the square. We learned about many things and discussed them together with Mr. Bleyan. We discussed how to change fences, stone houses and recreation areas. We crossed the bridge over the Kasakh River. I must say that I liked the sound of the river very much, because hearing it reigned inside me. We visited Spitakavor, Karmravor and Tsiranavor churches
