Strategies and useful tips

• Recommended time to fulfil is 10 minutes!
• First thing you need to do is to read the titles very carefully and translate them. Try to keep them in mind while doing the task.
• You don't need to read all the texts very carefully. Your aim is to understand the main idea.
• Most often key information can be found in the very first and last sentences of the texts.
• The heading must be the one that best covers the main topic, so you need to make sure that the heading you have chosen fits the meaning of the whole mini text and doesn't just simply use some of the same words.
• Very often you will not find the same words in the texts and titles, so pay attention to synonyms.
• If necessary highlight the keywords in the texts.
• Remember! There is one extra title that you do not use.

Charles Dickens

A. Charles Dickens wrote some of the most tender and moving love stories in XIX century English literature. He, like no one else, knew how to describe home comfort and glorified family values. But all this remained only on paper—fantasies that adorned the lives of readers. Dickens was the most popular writer of the era, but he never became a happy person, having spent his whole life in search of the ideal, as evidenced by the story of his life.

B. He was born in Landport, but soon the family moved from there to Portsmouth, and then to London. Charles remembered his biography from an early age, from the age of two. He remembered a time when their family lived well, and there were only two children in the house: his older sister Fanny and himself. But for some reason, his mother was giving birth to new babies. Two of them died, but four survived, and a total of eight children, and they began to live poorer.

C. Charles's adolescence was bleak until his father received a small inheritance, and in 1824 he was retired, besides, his brother was able to pay his debts and free the family from a debt prison. Only then was Charles able to enter a private school. Charles studied excellently in all subjects, including dancing, but most of all excelled in English literature. He became the first student. Together with a friend, he began to publish a school newspaper on pieces of paper torn from a notebook. And Charles dreamed of an interesting job.

D. But all plans were crushed. Her name was Maria Bidnell, she was the daughter of a banker, and she and Charles met at a musical evening hosted by Fannie Dickens. Maria was a desperate coquette and enjoyed playing with Charles in love, knowing full well that this poor young man could never become her husband. But Charles fell in love seriously and was ready to make any sacrifices just to unite with Mary. In the end, Maria got tired of Charles, and she rejected him.

E. Charles became friends with his new publisher, George Hogarth. The young man liked the Hogarth family so much that he decided to become one of its members and for this, he wooed the eldest of the daughters, Catherine, although he did not even really like her. But it was also important for him to take revenge on the female sex, and Charles played the lover so brilliantly that Catherine gave him in return, on her part—quite sincere. They got married on April 2, 1836.

F. Catherine was almost constantly pregnant or recovering from childbirth, or sick after miscarriages. A couch was installed for her in the living room so that she could receive visitors reclining: it was hard for her to sit, her back hurt. Charles, on the other hand, sneered at his wife's immoderate fertility. By 1852, the Dickens couple had 10 children.

G. On the recommendation of the director of the Olympic Theater, he approached Mrs Ternan and her daughters Maria and Ellen. During the first rehearsal, Charles realised that he could not look at Ellen Ternan without excitement. She was 18 years old. Ellen did not like Dickens, he was physically unpleasant to her. Exquisite declarations of love left Ellen indifferent. But she appreciated the good deeds that Dickens showered on her family, and the comfort that he surrounded her in the house rented for her, and his generosity. On June 8, 1870, during lunch, Dickens suddenly felt unwell. He got up from the table, wanting to go to his room, and suddenly fell.
