Book Synopsis Mark Twain, the Globetrotter: Complete Travel Books, Memoirs & Anecdotes (Illustrated Edition) by : Mark Twain
Download or read book Mark Twain, the Globetrotter: Complete Travel Books, Memoirs & Anecdotes (Illustrated Edition) written by Mark Twain and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-17 with total page 3262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though best known for his adventure novels and humorous stories, Twain was a passionate world traveler and he recorded his journeys in several travel books which were all very popular at the time: "The Innocents Abroad" humorously chronicles Twain's "Great Pleasure Excursion" on board the chartered vessel Quaker City through Europe and the Holy Land in 1867. "Roughing It" follows the travels of young Mark Twain through the Wild West during the years 1861–1867. The book illustrates many of Twain's early adventures, including a visit to Salt Lake City, gold and silver prospecting, real-estate speculation and a journey to the Kingdom of Hawaii. "Old Times on the Mississippi" is a short account of Twain's experiences as a cub pilot, learning the Mississippi river. "A Tramp Abroad" details Twain's journey through central and southern Europe with his friend. As the two men make their way through Germany, the Alps, and Italy, they encounter situations made all the more humorous by their reactions to them. "Life on the Mississippi" is a memoir by Mark Twain of his days as a steamboat pilot on the Mississippi River before the American Civil War, recounting his trip along the Mississippi River from St. Louis to New Orleans after the War. "Following the Equator" – In an attempt to extricate himself from debt, Twain undertook a tour of the British Empire in 1895, a route chosen to provide numerous opportunities for lectures in English. The book is a social commentary, critical of racism towards Blacks, Asians, and Indigenous groups. "Some Rambling Notes of an Idle Excursion" presents a series of stories about a trip that Twain and some friends took to Bermuda from New York City. "Chapters from my Autobiography" comprises a rambling collection of anecdotes and ruminations of Mark Twain, assembled during his life. Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910), better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher, and lecturer.
Download or read book Globetrotter written by Mark Jacob and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Read the captivating biography of Abe Saperstein, originator of the Harlem Globetrotters, which is called "meticulously researched and written in an easy and entertaining style" by Booklist in a starred review. The original Harlem Globetrotters weren’t from Harlem, and they didn’t start out as globetrotters. The talented all-Black team, started by Jewish immigrant Abe Saperstein, was from Chicago’s South Side and toured the Midwest in Saperstein’s model-T. But with Saperstein’s savvy and the players’ skills, the Globetrotters would become a worldwide sensation. Globetrotter: How Abe Saperstein Shook Up the World of Sports is the fascinating biography of Saperstein, a five-foot-three promoter who made an amazing impact in a sport where height is at a premium: basketball. After Saperstein founded the team in the 1920s, they battled everything from blizzards to bigotry, steadily building a reputation for talent and comedy until their footprint covered the entire world. Abe Saperstein’s impact went well beyond the Harlem Globetrotters. He helped keep baseball’s Negro Leagues alive, was a force in getting pitching great Satchel Paige his shot at the majors, and befriended Olympic star Jesse Owens when he fell on hard times. When Saperstein started the American Basketball League, he pioneered the three-point shot, which has dramatically changed the sport. Globetrotter reveals the tireless work and impressive achievements of a man and a basketball team that made millions of people laugh, gasp, and applaud at their astounding performances.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eleven-year-old Mary Tucker dreams of visiting the Amazon. But if her father, a museum curator, has his way, she will be well into old age before she ever gets the chance. One day, while mischievously exploring the museum's warehouse with her brother Ike and best friend Helen, Mary stumbles across an old travel trunk belonging to her grandfather. Inside, they discover a nondescript glass globe. Curious about the simple object, Mary touches the globe, and is shocked when the room is suddenly consumed by the most amazing view of Earth. The magnificent globe lets the friends zoom closer and closer toward the earth's surface, eventually bringing them close enough to touch the trees. That's when the globe entirely disappears, and they find themselves falling. Suddenly, they're far from home in a place that's either paradise or the place where they will die. Sleep, water, and food become precious and scarce. A native tribe may hold the keys to their survival as well as clues to help them get back home. But it won't be easy. The rain forest is a big place, and when others find out what the globe can do, Mary, Ike and Helen will need a plan, allies, and a little luck in order to get out alive.

Book Synopsis Практичний курс англійської мови. 2 курс. Intermediate by : Черноватий Л. М.
Download or read book Практичний курс англійської мови. 2 курс. Intermediate written by Черноватий Л. М. and published by Нова Книга. This book was released on with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Вперше у практиці видання подібних підручників його зміст та структура відповідають рекомендаціям Ради Європи та орієнтовані на Кембріджські тести. Автори намагалися врахувати новітні досягнення філології та методики навчання іноземних мов. Зокрема, в підручнику застосовуються автентичні тексти з американських та британських ЗМІ, комбінаторні таблиці для засвоєння сполучуваності лексики, систематичне введення та опрацювання ідіоматичних зворотів і фразових дієслів, елементи проблемного навчання, англо-українські та українсько-англійські словники до кожного уроку, порівняльні таблиці українських і англомовних реалій, сучасні фото та малюнки. До відмінностей підручника слід також додати урахування вікових особливостей студентів та афективних чинників навчання, дозоване застосування гумору, фабульну презентацію матеріалу. Сучасна система вправ передбачає паралельний розвиток усіх видів мовленнєвої діяльності (аудіювання, говоріння, читання, письма). Спеціальні вправи для розвитку перекладацьких навичок та умінь (на компресію тексту, засвоєння елементів перекладацького скоропису, розвиток умінь роботи зі словниками) сприяють ранньому формуванню фахової компетенції. Для студентів вищих навчальних закладів, що спеціалізуються у галузі іноземної філології, студентів перекладацьких відділень (факультетів) університетів, фахівців, які прагнуть вдосконалити власні навички та вміння практичного володіння англійською мовою та перекладу.
