5 A. Say what you know about primates ['praimeɪts].

B. Listen, read the text. Say what new information you've got from it.

Our Close Relatives

Apes are the closest relatives of humans. For a long time, people thought that monkeys and apes belonged to the same species of animals but, scientifically speaking, it is not so. Monkeys are smaller than apes and they have long tails which they often use as an extra "hand". They easily use both their hands and feet if they want to take something.

Monkeys and apes are primates. They live in the tropics, especially in rainforests. Apes and monkeys are common in tropical Africa and Asia. Monkeys also live in South America.

Probably the most interesting of all are great apes. This group [gru:p] includes the chimpanzee [ˌtʃɪmpæn'zi:], gorilla and orangutan [ɔ:ˌræŋju:'tæn]. Apes are the only primates that are humanlike. They look like us, are tailless and have the same diseases as people. All apes sleep at night. Some of them make platforms in the trees, others make nests on the ground. Apes mostly eat plants and sometimes kill small animals, like insects, for food. Chimpanzees and gorillas spend more time on the ground than in the trees and walk on all fours.

Apes have just one young or, from time to time, twins. They travel in family groups of 30 or 40. Apes live 30 years or more. They carry their babies in one arm like human mothers or place them on their backs. Chimps are very curious and often friendly and peaceful. Gorillas become aggressive [ə'gresɪv] only when they defend their territory.

Apes are very clever animals, second only to humans. They can understand the vocabulary of up to several hundred words and symbols. Chimps often use branches, stones and boxes on which they stand to get their food. Some scientists even believe that apes can count.

A. Расскажите, что вы знаете о приматах.

Ответ:

I know that primates are a group of mammals that includes monkeys, apes, and humans. They usually live in trees in warm countries. They are very smart and have hands that can grab things. I also know that monkeys have long tails, which they use to help them climb.

Я знаю, что приматы — это группа млекопитающих, в которую входят обезьяны, человекообразные обезьяны и люди. Обычно они живут на деревьях в теплых странах. Они очень умные и у них есть руки, которыми они могут хватать предметы. Я также знаю, что у обезьян есть длинные хвосты, которые помогают им лазить.

B. Послушайте, прочитайте текст. Скажите, какую новую информацию вы из него почерпнули.

Ответ:

Для ответа на часть вопроса, связанную с прослушиванием, недостаточно данных.

From the text, I learned that apes are the closest relatives of humans, not monkeys. A big difference is that apes are tailless. I also found out that they are very smart, second only to humans, and can understand several hundred words. It was interesting to learn that some scientists believe that apes can even count. Also, I didn't know that gorillas are generally peaceful and only become aggressive when defending their territory.

Из текста я узнал, что человекообразные обезьяны — ближайшие родственники человека, а не мартышки. Большое отличие в том, что у человекообразных обезьян нет хвоста. Я также выяснил, что они очень умны, уступая только людям, и могут понимать несколько сотен слов. Было интересно узнать, что некоторые ученые считают, что человекообразные обезьяны даже умеют считать. Также я не знал, что гориллы в основном миролюбивы и становятся агрессивными, только когда защищают свою территорию.
