Hi, Lisa! I’ve found two photos for our project «Life without gadgets» and I’d like to tell you about them.
The first photo shows a girl in a library holding a book in her hand. She might be looking for some information for her project. The second photo depicts a girl sitting on a sofa at home. She is holding an e-book in her hands and probably doing some research, too.
These photos have some differences. Firstly, the girl in the first picture is not using any gadgets, she is reading a book, while the girl in the second shot is using an e-book. Secondly, the girl in the first picture is surrounded by other people who also do without gadgets and work together in order to exchange their knowledge and experience, whereas the girl in the second picture is studying the material alone, as everything she needs is in her e-reader.
I think that both kinds of books have their advantages and disadvantages. For instance, printed books are too heavy, especially when one needs several books at once. However, they do not do any harm to people’s eyesight when used for several hours on end and this is a real benefit. As for electronic books, they have a considerable advantage – it is very convenient to search for specific information within a document, but there is a drawback – such books are not accessible if the e-reader or other gadget is broken or its battery is dead.
In my opinion, these photos perfectly illustrate our project. Firstly, we can see that life without gadgets is possible because there are plenty of books with all necessary information, as the first photo shows. Secondly, nowadays we need to have quick access to information, and in this respect the girl in the second photo definitely has an advantage over the girl in the first photo.
As for me, I wouldn’t like to live without gadgets because they help me a lot in all spheres of my life. For example, I use them to do my homework, chat with
friends who live in other cities, listen to music and watch series. Life without gadgets is my idea of hell.
That’s all for now. I’ll be waiting for your opinion about these photos!

the countryside in Zetland. I have found some data on this issue and I
am going to analyse it in this essay.
As it can from the table, the vast majority of the respondents named
less pollution as the main advantage of living in the countryside with
41%. The table also shows: a small minority mentioned that eating
healthier food is better than eating noxious food in the city with 9%,
putting this position at the bottom of the table.
Comparing the 1 st and the 2 nd data, the position «Less pollution» with
41% in total constitutes almost half the size of the position «Less noise

Изменилось условие задания
Теперь по условию задания вы вместе с другом выполняете проектную работу на какую-то конкретную тему (в демоверсии ЕГЭ–2022 приведена тема «Жизнь без гаджетов»). Вы нашли фотографии по теме вашей проектной работы и хотите рассказать о них другу, записав голосовое сообщение.
В своем ответе вам необходимо:
– дать краткое описание фотографий, объясняющее выбор фотографий для проектной работы
– рассказать о различиях между снимками, объясняющих выбор этих самых снимков для проектной работы
– Перечислить достоинства и недостатки (1–2) чего-то, что сравнивается в проектной работе (в демоверсии ЕГЭ–2022 в задании 4 сравниваются бумажные и электронные книги).
То есть, к примеру, в задании 4 демоверсии ЕГЭ–2022 вам достаточно будет привести по одному достоинству и одному недостатку бумажных книг и по одному достоинству и одному недостатку электронных (всего 4).
– Высказать мнение по теме проектной работы
Вступление и заключение
Один из пунктов, по которому будет оцениваться ваш ответ (смотрите дополнительную схему оценивания ниже): «Наличие вступления с обращением к другу и заключения, завершённость высказывания.» Поэтому в начале и в конце высказывания не забудьте добавить по 1-2 фразы со вступлением и заключением.
Важна привязка к теме проекта
Теперь, выполняя данное задание, вам необходимо помнить, что вы не просто сравниваете две фотографии, а подбираете их к вашей проектной работе (не забывайте, что по условию задания вы отправляете голосовое сообщение другу, который вместе с вами работает над проектом). Именно поэтому описание фотографий и перечисление их различий должно быть привязано к теме проектной работы.
Hi, Jack! I’ve just found two pictures for our project «Household chores in a family». Let me tell you about them.
I consider, they are quite relevant to our project, as both pictures have certain features which just perfectly illustrate the main idea of it. So, in the first picture we see a girl who is throwing away a bag of garbage. She seems to be using a special garbage bin situated in the neighborhood. In the second photo there is a girl standing at the sink and washing the frying pan. She seems to have a lot of dishes to wash.
It is necessary to mention, that these household chores have differences, which may help us illustrate the project much better. The girl in the first photo has to go outside whatever the weather in order to throw the rubbish away while the girl in the second picture is doing the dishes in a comfortable atmosphere of her family kitchen. And the second difference is that a girl in the second picture seems to feel disgusted to deal with rubbish since she is wearing a mask whereas judging by the facial expression of the girl in the second photo, she doesn’t mind doing the washing up
Using these photos, we can always show that both household chores have their advantages and disadvantages. If you are in charge of throwing out the rubbish, you do it twice or three times a week and spend just five or ten minutes on it, but at the same time you can be forced to go outside any time your bin is overfilled. As for the washing up, itis more time-consuming and tiring. It can take an hour or even more if a lot of dirty dishes are left after the meals. However, the advantage of this chore is noticeable order in the kitchen when the washing up is finished.
Personally, Ithink all family members should do their share of household chores as it reduces stress on women. Household chores are done faster that allows the family to spend more quality time together.
So, what do you think? Shall we use these photos in our project? Let me know.

The first human carrying flight technology was the hot air balloon. While unmanned balloons have been around in some form for thousands of years, the first flight with people aboard was in 1782. The large balloon on top is called an “envelope”. It holds hot air created by a heat source known a burner. The burner creates an open flame by burning a mix of propane and air. Hot air balloons are capable of floating because the hot air inside the envelope has a lower density than the colder air outside. The top of the balloon usually has a vent which allows the pilot to control the speed of ascent or descent. Passengers typically stand in a basket beneath the envelope. While most envelopes have a standard balloon shape, others are designed to look like animals, cartoon characters and other fun objects.

Many lands that had once been swamps were drained or filled in. There are different reasons why people drained swamplands. Some were drained to fight diseases caused by insects that lived in them. Because swamps were considered unpleasant places in which to live and harmful to health, many people thought that unless they were drained the land was worthless.
Other swamps were drained to make new land. As the population grew and more land was needed, people drained swamps or filled them to make room for more farms and factories, more roads and airports.
Few people thought that it might be harmful to get rid of swamps. As swamps disappeared, other things happened. There were both more floods and more droughts than before. There were also more fires, for swamps had acted as firebreaks. Hunters noticed that there was less wild game. Wild life that once lived in the swamps was dying out, because it had no place to live.

People have always told stories and legends to explain natural, but mysterious, occurrences such as the Northern Lights. The Vikings believed the Northern Lights were caused by the shining weapons of warriors. The Alaskan people thought the lights were the souls of salmon, deer and other animals. The Indians told the stories of giants living in the North and thought the lights were their torches.
The Northern Lights are actually caused by electrons from solar winds. They are attracted to the poles by the magnetic fields found there. They mix with gases in the atmosphere, which causes the gases to glow. The Northern Lights are most visible in the far north. They are typically green, purple, red or blue.

Japan is an island nation in East Asia, located in the North Pacific Ocean off the coast of the Asian continent. Japan comprises the four main islands in addition to numerous smaller islands. Tokyo is the country’s capital and largest city. Mountains dominate Japan’s landscape, covering 75 to 80 per cent of the country. Historically, the mountains were barriers to transportation, limiting the economic development of isolated areas. However, with the development of tunnels, bridges, and air transportation in the modern era, the mountains are no longer an obstacle. The Japanese have long celebrated the beauty of their mountains in art and literature, and today many mountain areas are preserved in national parks. Most of Japan’s people live on plains and lowlands found mainly along the lower courses of the country’s major rivers, on the lowest slopes of mountain ranges, and along the sea coast. This concentration of people makes Japan one of the world’s most crowded countries.

Since ancient times, humans have loved and cherished cats as their pets. Today more than 80 million cats reside in US homes, with an estimated three cats for every dog on the planet. Yet there is still a lot we don’t know about our feline friends – including what they think of their owners. After observing pet cats for several years, scientists have come to an intriguing conclusion: cats don’t really understand people the way dogs do. They tend to feel it is they who own their masters, not vice versa. On the contrary, dogs perceive people as being very different from themselves. As soon as they see a human, they change their behaviour. The way a dog plays with a human is completely different from the way it plays with a dog. Cats are independent creatures and they can easily change their owner without changing their habits.
