### 12-5: Song "On the Streets" #### 1. How does the picture make you feel? How can it be related to the song? * **Answer:** The picture makes me feel sad, sympathetic, and concerned. It shows a homeless person sitting alone on the street, which is directly related to the theme of the song — the difficulties, loneliness, and dangers faced by people who have nowhere to live and need our care. #### 2. How does the singer feel for those living on the streets? * **Answer:** The singer feels deep empathy, compassion, and concern for homeless people. The singer believes that they are people just like everyone else (*"they are just like you and me"*) who have faced misfortune and desperately need help, warmth, and attention (*"They need our help, they need our care"*). #### 3. THINK! Imagine yourself living on the streets. What would it be like? * **Answer:** Living on the streets would be terrifying and exhausting. It would mean constantly feeling freezing cold, hungry, and unsafe without anywhere private or warm to rest. The worst part would probably be the psychological burden: feeling completely invisible, isolated, and rejected by society. #### Proverbs (Task 4) * **A friend in need is a friend indeed.** *Meaning & Discussion:* True friends prove their loyalty by helping you when you are in trouble, not just when things are going well. * **A man's home is his castle.** *Meaning & Discussion:* Everyone has a right to privacy and security inside their own home, where they can feel safe from the outside world. * **A rolling stone gathers no moss.** *Meaning & Discussion:* A person who is always moving and changing jobs or residences avoids responsibilities and attachments, but also fails to build wealth, stability, or lasting roots. * **Beggars can't be choosers.** *Meaning & Discussion:* When you are in desperate need of help or asking for something for free, you should accept whatever is offered without being picky or complaining. * **Charity begins at home.** *Meaning & Discussion:* You should take care of your own family, friends, or local community before trying to help others far away. --- ### 12-6: Song "Is there anyone out there?" #### 1. Space words brainstorm and words in the song * **Space-related words brainstorm:** *Spaceship, galaxy, planets, universe, stars, aliens, astronaut, orbit, rocket, telescope, solar system, comet.* * **Words from the list found in the song:** *Spaceships, galaxy, planets, universe, life forms.* #### 2. Does the singer believe there is life on other planets? * **Answer:** Yes, the singer strongly suspects and hopes that other intelligent life exists in the vast universe (*"Could other life exist? Perhaps they've sent us messages"*, *"I hope we'll meet someday"*), although there is no definite proof yet. #### 3. THINK! If you could choose to live on another planet, which one would you choose? Why? * **Answer:** If I had to choose, I would choose Mars. It is the most explored terrestrial planet in our solar system and scientists believe it has resources like frozen water. Living in a futuristic Martian colony with a dome city and lower gravity would be an exciting scientific adventure. #### Proverbs (Task 4) * **Seeing is believing.** *Meaning & Discussion:* People often refuse to accept something as true until they have seen physical, visible evidence with their own eyes (just like searching for proof of alien life). * **The more one knows, the less one believes.** *Meaning & Discussion:* Gaining deep knowledge and scientific understanding makes a person more critical and skeptical, preventing them from blindly accepting unproven claims or superstitions. * **There are two sides to every question.** *Meaning & Discussion:* In almost every argument or topic (e.g., whether extraterrestrial life exists), there are valid points and perspectives supporting both viewpoints. --- ### Пояснения и разбор заданий (Explanation) 1. **Раздел 12-5 (Песня «On the Streets»):** * **Тематика:** Песня поднимает острую социальную тему бездомности (*homelessness*).
