💃"Gulliver's travels"😜 💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫 I saw a caricature of Gulliver in Lilliput when I was a tiny child and had firmly formed the impression, as do many others, that this was a children's novel. After reading the book, I can say that it is the most un-book children's I have ever read! Jonathan Swift, a priest, wrote Gulliver's Travels in 1725 as a parody of the popular romantic trip journals of the time. This was one of his assignments as part of a writer's group that crafted a spoof of popular genres. Because of its magical features, it quickly became renowned as a children's novel after its release, but the Whig party was outraged when they realized it was political satire. Gulliver goes on four journeys in the book. When we think of this novel, the first and most famous journey is Lilliput. Gulliver meets an extraordinary culture on each of his journeys, which he describes in detail before making e

 My introduction to the school of tutor😱  Yesterday, together with my classmates, I went to our first meeting at the school of tutors🎓. It was a very interesting experience as I had never been on anything like it before💹. We were told about our future responsibilities and what we would learn. At the very beginning of the meeting, we all stood in a large circle and began to take turns talking about ourselves and answering random questions that helped us get to know each other better😍. Then we played games like a broken phone📴, which was also a lot of fun. Towards the end, we passed the kahoot test for our knowledge of the education of the Moscow State Pedagogical University🌁. And in the end we all drank tea together, ate cookies and took many cool photos, one of which I will attach below. I want to express special thanks to the organization of this meeting and to all the guys💞💕💝

  Modal Verbs 💆 Here's a list of the modal verbs in English: can could  may  might  will would   must shall  should  ought to Modals are different from normal verbs: 1: They don't use an 's' for the third person singular. 2: They make questions by inversion ('she can go' becomes 'can she go?'). 3: They are followed directly by the infinitive of another verb (without 'to'). Probability:😲 First, they can be used when we want to say how sure we are that something happened / is happening / will happen. We often call these 'modals of deduction' or 'speculation' or 'certainty' or 'probability'. For example: It's snowing, so it  must be  very cold outside. I don't know where John is. He  could have missed  the train. This bill  can't be  right. £200 for two cups of coffee! Click here to find out more about probability. Ability🙇 We use 'can' and 'could' to talk about a skill or ability. For e
