POLITICAL COMMENT

Tony Blair — then and now

When Tony Blair was young, was there any indication that he might, one day, be one of Britain's longest serving Prime Ministers? At his public school, Tony Blair ¹was always challenging (always challenge) and breaking the rules. He ² __________ (often go) to the pub with his friends and ³ __________ (hate) some of the, as he saw them, pointless and old-fashioned rules. However, he ⁴ __________ (justify) his opinions through clever and passionate debate.

At Oxford University, he formed a rock band, Ugly Rumours, with some other students. One of his fellow band members remembers that he ⁵ __________ (be) confident, ambitious and charming and ⁶ __________ (not do) anything if it wasn't done well. After graduating, with a degree in law, Tony Blair and his wife Cherie moved to Hackney in East London.

A friend and neighbour remembers that he ⁷ __________ (always read), he ⁸ __________ (sit) for hours at home or on holiday with a good book. He ⁹ __________ (also be) a real ‘early bird’ getting up at dawn while everyone else was asleep.

Today we can see a lot of these characteristics in Tony Blair the politician. He is still charming, ambitious and confident. He ¹⁰ __________ (still debate) passionately and he ¹¹ __________ (constantly fight) against rules and regulations that he sees as being wrong for today’s society. The difference is that now people listen to him.

Когда Тони Блэр был молод, были ли какие-либо признаки того, что он однажды может стать одним из самых долгослужащих премьер-министров Великобритании? В своей государственной школе Тони Блэр всегда бросал вызов (всегда бросал вызов) и нарушал правила. Он 2 часто ходил (часто ходил) в паб со своими друзьями и 3 ненавидел (ненавидел) некоторые из, как он их считал, бессмысленных и старомодных правил. Однако он 4 оправдывал (оправдывал) свои мнения в умных и страстных дебатах. В Оксфордском университете он сформировал рок-группу Ugly Rumours с другими студентами. Один из его коллег по группе помнит, что он 5 был (был) уверенным, амбициозным и обаятельным и 6 ничего не делал (не делал), если это не было сделано хорошо. После окончания учебы со степенью в области права Тони Блэр и его жена Шери переехали в Хакни на востоке Лондона. Друг и сосед вспоминают, что он 7 всегда читал (всегда читал), он 8 сидел (сидел) часами дома или в отпуске с хорошей книгой. Он 9 также был (также был) настоящей «ранней пташкой», вставая на рассвете, пока все остальные спали. Сегодня мы видим много этих черт в Тони Блэре-политике. Он по-прежнему обаятелен, амбициозен и уверен в себе. Он 10 по-прежнему страстно дебатирует (по-прежнему дебатирует), и он 11 постоянно борется (постоянно борется) против правил и положений, которые он считает неправильными для современного общества. Разница в том, что теперь люди его слушают.
