Anglistics Study Programme Prevedite teskst i obratite paznju na upotrebu inverzije Only occasionally did she find herself reading someone else’s newspaper, over their shoulder, as she sat in the station waiting room. Mostly she was just not very interested, nor was she willing to risk getting caught. Why is it so embarrassing to get caught doing that, she wonders to herself. It isn’t against the law or anything. But facing her today was something that really caught her attention. One of our greatest fears in modern life, the headline said, was having to speak in public. The article offered ways to develop your confidence. Seldom, had she ever had to speak to an audience, but it was her turn to give a ten minute presentation in her Spanish class that afternoon. Not only would she have to speak to an audience, she would have to do it in a foreign language. She felt the room getting hotter and she leaned forward to get a closer look. Suddenly blocking her view was part of a large black beard and the big nose of the newspaper’s owner. Oops. Oh, here comes my train, she said quickly, as she stood up and stumbled towards the door. Public speaking isn’t scary, she thought to herself, it is public reading that makes me really nervous.

Anglistics Study Programme TEKST 3 Patnja prouzrokovana nasilnickim ponasanjem je nesto je poynato velikom broju dece. Najcesce mesto gde se odigrava nasilnicko ponasanje je skola. Mozda pretpostavljate da bi drugi djaci mogli da primate nasilnicko ponasdanje i urade nesto po tom pitanju. Medjutim, retko se ukljucuju drugi djaci, iz straha da ce I oni postati zrtve. Ovo moze da ucni problem jos vecim jer se deca koja trpe nasilnicko ponasanje mogu osecati osetavljenim od strane drugim djaka. Cesto se zrtve nasilja osecaju bespomocno da bilo sta ucine jer im je neugodno da to podele sa bilo kim. Vise vole da se pretvaraju da je sve uredu, nadajuci se da ce problem samo da nestane. Medjutim, moraju da se pomire sa cinjenicom da se nasilnik nece zaustaviti osim ako se nesto ne ucini. Kako bi se problem u potpunosti preokrenuo, deca moraju da osecaju da mogu da razgovaraju sa drugim ljudima.

Anglistics Study Programme HOMEWORK TEKST 4 Ukraine's teen bullying drama that shattered taboos and stirred a nation It has become a TV hit, a drama that has shattered taboos and given Ukraine's teenagers the courage to open up about their lives. Early Swallows tells stories about teenagers struggling with bullying and online harassment; they question their sexual identity and even consider taking their own lives. Issues like these are rarely dealt with in Ukraine in public. Six million viewers watch the show on TV and millions more have seen it online. A key part of the programme is a nongovernmental health helpline detailed at the end of every episode. Within the first month of the drama going out, the number of calls to the helpline went up by 600%. It is based on the lives of teenagers in a secondary school class. Five teens are subjected to online harassment from an anonymous user pretending to be their friend. They struggle with various forms of bullying and lack parental support.
