pecial game from the time they had met each other. The goal of their game was to write the word "SHMILY" in a surprise place for the other to find. They took turns leaving "SHMILY" around the house, and as soon as one of them discovered it, it was their turn to hide it once more. They dragged "SHMILY" with their fingers through the sugar and flour containers to await whoever was preparing the next meal. They smeared it in the dew on the windows overlooking the patio where my grandma always fed us warm, homemade pudding with blue food coloring. "SHMILY" was written in the steam left on the mirror after a hot shower, where it would reappear bath after bath. At one point, my grandmother even unrolled an entire roll of toilet paper to leave "SHMILY" on the very last sheet. There was no end to the places "SHMILY" would pop up. Little notes with "SHMILY" scribbled hurriedly were found on dashboards and car seats, or taped to steering wheels. The notes were stuffed inside shoes and left under pillows. "SHMILY" was written in the dust upon the mantel and traced in the ashes of the fireplace. This mysterious word was as much a part of my grandparents' house as the furniture. It took me a long time before I was able to fully appreciate my grandparent's game. Skepticism has kept me from believing in true love - one that is pure and enduring. However, I never doubted my grandparents' relationship. They had love down pat. It was more than their flirtatious little games; it was a way of life. Their relationship was based on a devotion and passionate affection which not everyone is lucky enough to experience. Grandma and Grandpa held hands every chance they could. They stole kisses as they bumped into each other in their tiny kitchen. They finished each other's sentences and shared the daily crossword puzzle and word jumble. My grandma whispered to me about how cute my grandpa was, how handsome an old man he had grown to be. She claimed that she really knew "how to pick 'em." Before every meal they bowed heads and gave thanks, marveling at their blessings: a wonderful family, good fortune, and each other. But there was a dark cloud in my grandparents' life: my grandmother had breast cancer. The disease had first appeared 10 years earlier. As always, Grandpa was with her every step of the way. He comforted her in their yellow room, painted that color so she could always be surrounded by sunshine, even when she was too sick to go outside. Now the cancer was once again attacking her body. With the help of a cane and my grandfather's steady hand, they still went to church every Sunday morning. But my grandmother grew steadily weaker until, finally, she could not leave the house anymore. For a while, Grandpa would go to church alone, praying to God to watch over his wife. Then one day, what we all dreaded finally happened. Grandma was gone. "SHMILY." It was scrawled in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmother's funeral bouquet. As the crowd thinned and the last mourners turned to leave, my aunts, uncles, cousins, and other family members came forward and gathered around Grandma one last time. Grandpa stepped up to my grandmother's casket and, taking a shaky breath, he began to sing to her. Through his tears and grief, the song came, a deep and throaty lullaby. Shaking with my own sorrow, I will never forget that moment. For I knew then that, although I couldn't begin to fathom the depth of their love, I had been privileged to witness its unmatched beauty. S-H-M-I-L-Y: See How Much I Love You.

Как болеют за футбольные клубы в Англии?Англичане очень гордятся тем, что именно они придумали футбол. Однако помимо этого они превратили игру в настоящее шоу, своеобразную религию. Традиционной составляющей турнира являются преданные болельщики. Культура боления за футбольный клуб считается едва ли не частью системы воспитания детей в английской семье. Командные приоритеты ребенка зачастую заранее определяются пристрастиями его отца, который, в свою очередь, унаследовал их от деда. Главным условием для каждого английского болельщика является верность. Для них не так важны материальные результаты команды, которые выражаются в приобретенных трофеях, гораздо важнее, чтобы игроки всеми силами отстаивали честь клуба, а награды воспринимаются как бонус. Несмотря на то, что сборная Англии последнюю свою победу на чемпионате мира одержала в 1966 году, тысячи фанатов отправляются поддержать своих героев на очередной турнир. Кроме того, англичане с огромным трепетом относятся к своей Премьер-Лиге. Матчи между лидерами чемпионата (Арсеналом, Манчестер Юнайтедом, Ливерпулем) привлекают такое внимание, что отодвигают на второй план митинги или концерты.Английских болельщиков боятся во всем мире, ведь за ними прочно закрепилась слава хулиганов. Конечно, среди них есть и те, кто ведет себя агрессивно по отношению к фанатам соперника, однако тот факт, что в Англии на стадионы ходят целыми семьями говорит о многом. Здесь своя религия, свои традиции, и по большей части английский чемпионат не вызывал бы такого огромного интереса во всем мире, если бы не болельщики, которые превращают каждый матч в фееричное действо.
Помогите, пожалуйста, нужен пересказ текста, на английском языке.Вот текст, примерно 9 предложений должно получиться в пересказе, заранее благодарю:
In the room where Mr Small. Dr Foam and Mrs Bulmer were talking to the children, there were some really old people. Mr Small went up to one of them. "I see that you're a very old man." he said.
"Yes. I am. I'm 90." the old man replied.
"Could you give the children here some advice about a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle?" Mr Small asked.
"Sure. Follow my example. Don't smoke, don't drink, don't eat too much sugar or fat and drink lots of water."
At that moment Dr Foam found another old man. who looked older than the first one. He was sitting in a wheelchair, but his eyes were merry and bright.
"How old are you, sir?" Dr Foam asked.
"I'm ninety-five." the man replied.
"Can you tell us why you have lived so long?" Doctor Foam asked.
"It's easy. I always do exercise, and I don't smoke or drink. I spend a lot of time in the open air and I'm a vegetarian." Just then Mrs Bulmer decided to join in the conversation. She saw a very, very old man in the corner of the room. He had no teeth or hair and he couldn't see or hear very well, so she had to come very close to him. The children followed her.
"May 1 ask you a couple of questions, sir," she shouted.
"Yes." the old man whispered.
"Why have you lived so long, sir?" Mrs Bulmer asked.
"I don't know." the man replied.
"Tell us about your lifestyle," Mrs Bulmer continued.
"OK, then. I smoke thirty cigarettes a day and drink a bottle of whisky every day. Sometimes I also have two bottles of beer. I never eat vegetables or fruit and I live on chocolate and cakes."
"How old are you, sir?" Mr Bulmer exclaimed.
"I'm forty." the "old" man replied.

How to grab a better iPhone deal
Apple's new iPhone 5 handset may be in the spotlight, but older smartphones and special tariffs can signal great value
If you don't want to pay the price demanded for the new iPhone 5, but still want to get your hands on an all-singing, all-dancing smartphone, you may be wondering how long it will take for the price of existing models to start coming down.
With Apple reporting more than 2m first-day pre-orders for the latest version of the handset, which went on sale in stores on Friday, savvy shoppers are already looking forward to snapping up a bargain older model at a discounted price. The good news is that the big phone networks have already started cutting the upfront cost of the usurped iPhone 4S as attention shifts to the new handset.
Seasoned industry analysts are predicting that the iPhone 4S will be available "free" to those signing two-year contracts at around £25 a month "within the next three to six months". Hold your nerve for at least six weeks and you should be rewarded with a much better deal: £25 a month is considered by some as the price at which many consumers who want a high-end big-name phone, but won't pay sky-high launch prices, can be lured back into the market.
"Prices for the older models are already coming down as retailers make room for the new Apple device, and if you are prepared to wait a bit, you will be rewarded with some great handsets at significantly lower prices," said uSwitch's technology analyst Ernest Doku.
Kate Murphy, mobile spokeswoman at MoneySupermarket, agrees that buyers who are happy to take an iPhone 4S will be in luck. "Orange, T-Mobile and Vodafone have already slashed the prices, with O2 and Three likely to follow suit. Two weeks ago someone looking for a £31 a month tariff with Orange for the 4S (16GB) would have needed to make an upfront payment of £169.99. Now it would cost just £49.99 on a 24-month contract."
Murphy warns that those hoping to resell a 4S to help with the cost of upgrading can expect less than they would have received before Apple launched the iPhone 5: "Just two weeks ago, recycling a 16GB 4S with Mazuma would have earned you £275. Now you will be offered more like £230. Owners of the 32GB model were getting £300 two weeks ago compared with £255 now."
To get an indication of how prices tumble, you only have to look at previous models. Apple has been remarkably successful at keeping the price of outgoing models high, but even the US giant is not immune to market economics. The iPhone 3GS, the hottest thing going in the summer of 2009, cost £96 to buy back then for someone taking on a mid-sized tariff costing £35 a month over 18 months. Until a few months ago that same smartphone could be had with an all-you-can-eat data package with no upfront fee on a £15 a month contact. Now it has all but been withdrawn.
