Hi, Violeta! It is very nice to see you on the Forum!
Your homework is very good!
I only don't agree with the 4th sentence in the exercise True or False:
Yes, it is true, there are two different types of sugar - glucose for blood and fructose for the liver, but
"sugar is sugar" - it is the same in fruit and in junk food and it adds weight to your body just the same.

We are learning how to talk about future:
will / won't - staigiai šovusioms mintims ir savo spėlionėms, nuomonėms apie ateitį (opinions about future, predictions, promises):

The weather presenter said it is going to rain tomorrow.
I'm going to move to a new flat next month.

(to be) +____ing - priimtiems sprendimams, nutarimams (arrangements), labai greitai netrukus vyksiantiems planams:
I'm not coming to you tonight. I'm having dinner at my parents'. Neateisiu pas tave šįvakar. Vakarieniausiu pas tėvus.
What are these tickets for? -It's for our holiday. We are staying in an Italian resort this summer. Kam šie bilietai? Mūsų atostogoms. Mes gyvensime Italijos kurorte šią vasarą

Kalbant apie planus - ar ateities, ar netrukus vykstantiems - galima vartoti bet kurią iš šių dviejų formų: (to be) going to +_____ arba (to be) going to +_____ :

LISTENING 6:
Listen to the couple's conversation and write on the Forum:

What is the main reason (priežastis) for Terry (the husband) to move in with his parents ?
Why doesn't Jane (the wife) want to live with her in-laws?

That's settled - nuspręsta
It'll get easier; It'll get better - bus lengviau; bus geriau
I suppose so - Manau (sutinku), kad taip

Vilma's and Arvydas' homework

Terry wants to live with his parents because he thinks they'll have more time to be together without their children. But Jane doesn't agree with his idea because she thinks they wouldn't have any privacy.

I totally agree with you, Simona! The husband wants his parents to look after his children sometimes and that's the main reason he wants to live with his parents. I suppose for his wife it is not very acceptable

The main reason of Terry to move in with his parents is that they never have time for each other. They are always with the children..Terry would like to go out in the evenings without the their childrens.
Jane think that would be more people in the house and would be more work to do.Would not have any privacy.

Write on the Forum:
Which child in the family are you?
Do you find that the book "Birth Order" is true for you? What isn't true?
Can you give a short description of your and your siblings (brolių ir seserų) personalities?

Vilma's homework
I'm the first born. I think the book „Birth Order“ is true: our birth order influences our characters.
I have personal traits like all first borns: I'm responsible, sensible, patient, ambicious and anxious.
My brother is more rebellious, also he is charming, sociable.

Arvydas' homework
I'm the youngest child in my family. I agree with the information in the book „Birth Order“ but I think every character depends on the education in the family.
I'm very outgoing, charming, kind, self confident.
My brother is the first born. He is sociable, calm, responsible, sensible.

I think about my siblings. What are they like?
The first- born child was sensible, responsible. This child behaved like a second mother.
The second-born child was sociable, friendly, reliable and often were not=was not at home.
The third-born child was charming, spoilt and jealous. This child sometimes was angry with others.
And the fourth- born child was wise, hard-working and independent. This child was very good at learning and perhaps most of all reached=succeeded most of all in life.
Which child in the family am I?

Wonderful ! reached netinka todėl, kad reiškia siekti fizine prasme - pvz., tiesti ranką; reikia vartoti succeeded - pasisekė, pasiekė

I guess you were the third -born child. Am I right?
I think so, because you used the most of negative characteristics (apibūdinimų) when describing them.

I love your homework, Janina

It's only my opinion. Another person would describe them differently.
I'm the second-born child.

I am the youngiest child in family.I have older brother.I think our personalities is diferent.
I am sensitive,sociable,anxious and outgoing.My brother is mature,self-confident and sensible.
What is written in this book "Birth Order" everything is true.I am absolutely agree,because it is discribe mine personality!

And I was the only child in my family. I don't have any siblings. I am surprised how much the characteristics in the book fit me (tinka man).
Like they say in the book about only children, I was good at school. That's because I got a lot of support from my Mom. I'm also self-confident and impulsive. For example, I do as I think is sensible to do without listening to others. I'm not affraid to tell my opinion out loud. I also like sorting out problems with others. I prefer to deal with difficulties on my own.
The only thing from the book that doesn't fit me is about being organized. I'm disorganized. Maybe because I was spoilt by my Mom and by my grandparents. I was always the baby child for them.
