American National No Housework Day

No Housework Day is one of those days you see on calendars on the Internet but don’t know where it came from. It is always on April 7th. It is one day of the year when it is OK to do nothing in the house. Everybody has the day off from doing the household chores. It’s OK to let the dishes and washing pile up; it’s no problem to let another layer of dust settle on top of the TV; and it’s absolutely fine to leave the vacuum cleaner in its corner for the day. The laundry will be just fine in the basket until tomorrow. And as for cooking, make sure you have a home-delivery phone number handy. Or even better, get yourself off to a restaurant. This is also a good day for those who never do anything around the house, who never lift a finger, to appreciate those who do the housework.

You could celebrate it a little differently; if you’re not the person who normally does the housework, why not take over just for today? Or if you have an elderly neighbour, how about offering to help out with chores this No Housework Day?

What is housework, exactly? If you never do it, you probably never think about this. It is a lot of hard work and someone does it every single day. It starts while the rest of the house is still asleep. Next time you wake up, listen to see if you can hear the washing machine working or smell the coffee machine. It happens while you are still trying to open your eyes at the breakfast table. Then while you are at school, the breakfast dishes are magically cleaned, the tables wiped and the dishes all put in their place. You come home from school and the bath is clean, again. Your shirts are washed, ironed, and hanging in your closet, again. The toothpaste tube in the bathroom is never empty. Who does all this invisible housework?

A recent study conducted at the University of Michigan found that the average married American woman does 17 hours of housework per week! After a long day at school or work, housework is the last thing anyone wants to come home to do.

Doctors say that it is essential for people with busy lifestyles to relax. Relaxation can lower heart rate and blood pressure, reduce headaches, and improve concentration.

Celebrate National No Housework Day by ignoring the dirty dishes in the sink and the piles of laundry that need to be done and just relax. You deserve it!

    1. National No Housework Day was founded by American doctors.

    2. April 7th is the day off in the USA.

    3. Home-delivery from restaurants is free on No Housework Day.

    4. Some people who don’t usually do any household chores prefer to do them on this day.

    5. Those who do housework get up earlier than the rest of the family.

    6. Special robots are available to do all the household chores.

    7. Housework is a popular hobby for American teens.

    8. Regular relaxation is necessary for health.

    Sweden's ICEHOTEL Opens for the 24th Year

    1. Construction of Magic

    2. 2. An Accidental Start

    3. 3. The First is the Best

    4. 4. Modernized Every Year

    5. 5. Enjoy a Cool Night!

    6. 6. Ice Rooms to any Taste and Budget

    1. A. Sweden's ICEHOTEL is known for many things: its 'out of this world' location, great architecture and even freezing comfort, but not for longevity (долговечность)! The hotel is located in the village of Jukkasjarvi. It has to be rebuilt every year because it is carved entirely from ice blocks. They melt when the summer comes along. Each time the building gets increasingly better!

    2. B. 23 years ago, a local company looking for the ways how to attract tourists to Jukkasjarvi during the freezing winter months, decided to host an art exhibition inside an igloo built on the frozen Torne River. The 5,6 square meters structure was a huge success attracting many day visitors. One day a group of brave people arrived with sleeping bags and announced their intention to spend the night inside the igloo. After that the idea of constructing the ICEHOTEL was born.

    3. C. The hotel has come a long way since its beginnings. Constructed from 1000 tons of ice and 30,000 tons of 'snice' (a mixture of ice and snow), it now covers 5,500 square meters. The construction process begins in March and April, when about 5,000 tons of ice is harvested from the river and transferred to a cold storage where it sits till the beginning of winter. Building the hotel begins in November when about 100 workers, half of them artists invited to design special sections, come to the region. By December, it is ready and open for business.

    4. D. Each version of the hotel is unique, more a work of art than a structure made from frozen water. Its 47 rooms built to accommodate visitors on all kinds of budgets vary from luxurious suites to rooms that are furnished with just an icy bed and a reindeer skin.

    5. E. But no matter what room the guests are in, the temperature is the same - -5°C! Guests are advised to use thermal sleeping bags and keep their gloves and winter hats on all night. No wonder that most end up spending just one night in this freezing environment before moving to more conventional warmer cabins nearby. But the guests all agree that it is an experience like none other.

      6. 5. Space for Privacy

      7. 6. International Home

      8. 7. Work Out at the Space Gym!

      1. On November 20th, 1998, a Russian rocket launched off with an unusual piece of cargo - Zarya ('sunrise' in

      1. Russian), the module that became the first piece of the largest manmade structure ever built in airless space - The International Space Station (ISS). Designed to be the power source for the ISS, it orbited earth for two weeks, before being joined by Unity.

      2. B. Launched by the US Space Shuttle Endeavour on December 6th, 1998, Unity arrived with a crew of six American and Russian astronauts. A few days later, the American module was successfully attached to the Russian module. On December 11, 1998, at 2.54 pm, the astronauts made history by becoming the first humans to board the newly established International Space Station.

      3. C. Over the years, the ISS has grown to the size of a football pitch with about the same amount of livable space as a normal six-bedroom house. So it’s big enough for hosting teams of astronauts from around the world, for as long as six months at a time. What's even cooler is that this large construction project is a never before seen international cooperation. Five different space agencies - NASA, Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA and CSA, representing 15 countries have come together to make the ISS a reality.

      4. D. Over the last 15 years, astronauts have made174 spacewalks and spent 1,100 hours or nearly 46 days on

      5. different missions in open space. With over 1,500 experiments done in the five research modules, the station has

      6. been responsible for many important scientific discoveries and breakthroughs.

      7. E. Besides performing experiments, all astronauts that reside at the ISS are living experiments themselves. That's because they allow scientists to monitor the effects of zero gravity on the human body and seek out solutions to fight them. For example, one of the biggest illnesses suffered by astronauts used to be weakened bones and muscles. Today, the effects have been reduced by changing their diets and adding a gym to the ISS.

      8. F. Psychological health which is as important as physical well-being, has also been improved by providing the astronauts with tiny cabins that allow for some time to be alone and the opportunity to talk to their loved ones in private. These improvements are very important for the scientists that visit the ISS for short or longer periods of time.

      Nature’s joke? - the strange and wonderful PLATYPUS

      The platypus is a strange little creature found only in Australia. When the first platypus was sent to Europe in the 19th century, the scientists who examined it just could not believe their eyes. They believed the platypus was a joke, 41) ....... .They thought some fun-loving Australian had put the feet and nose of a duck onto the body of a rat, 42)……..

      But platypuses are real, 43) ............... . Platypuses have a nose like a duck, webbed feet like a duck, soft brown fur on their body and a long, flat tail like a beaver. As if that weren't strange enough, even though they are mammals (which means they feed their babies milk), platypuses don't give birth to live babies 44) ...............! No wonder scientists couldn't decide for a very long time if platypuses were birds, reptiles or mammals.

      But the platypus has even more wonderful characteristics. Platypuses find their food in rivers by using electric fields. And, if they are in danger, male platypuses have sharp hooks on their feet 45) ............... .It's no surprise then, that this special, shy little animal is one of Australia's most famous creatures. A picture of the platypus appears on the Australian 20 cent coin. Australians are very proud of their unique platypus.

      1. Read the article and mark the sentences T (true) or F (false).

      Anti-fur protestor Heather Mills McCartney is threatening to stalk actress Jennifer Lopez. The wife of ex-Beatle Sir Paul McCartney has targeted Ms Lopez because of the singer-actor’s love of fur. Ms Lopez often attends movie premieres and awards shows wearing expensive fur coats. She says she wants to be “educated” as to why she should not wear them. She has angered animal rights activists for many years. They accuse her of making fur fashionable. She has made it an attractive item for the young and wealthy to want to buy.

      Ms McCartney’s latest stalking attempt ended painfully when she lost her prosthetic leg in a fight with security guards at the New York offices of Ms Lopez’s fashion company. Ms McCartney wanted to deliver a DVD to Ms Lopez, which contained a documentary of animals pain. Ms McCartney had to replace her artificial leg in a stairwell, as the guards refused her entry to a restroom. She promised to continue her crusade against Ms Lopez, and to “show up” at her home or “get a hold of her at her premieres”.

      Jennifer Lopez has been arrested for wearing fur coats.
