Task: read the text; translate, be ready to answer the questions and retell the text
Burrhus Frederic Skinner was born March 20, 1904 in the small Pennsylvania town. His father was a lawyer, and his mother a strong and intelligent housewife. His upbringing (воспитание) was old-fashioned and hard-working.
Burrhus was an active, out-going boy who loved the outdoors (свежий воздух) and building things, and enjoyed school.Burrhus received his BA in English from Hamilton College in New York. However, he did not enjoy college life very much. He was an atheist in a school that required daily church attendance
He wanted to be a writer and did try, sending off poetry and short stories. When he graduated, he built a study (кабинет) in his parents' attic (чердак) to concentrate.
After some traveling, he decided to go back to school, this time at Harvard. He got his master's degree in psychology (MA) in 1930 and his doctorate (Ph.D) in 1931, and stayed there to do research until 1936.
Also in that year, he moved to Minneapolis to teach at the University of Minnesota. There he met and soon married Yvonne Blue. They had two daughters, the second of which became famous as the first infant to be raised in one of Skinner's inventions, the air crib (колыбель). Although it was nothing more than a combination of crib and playpen (детский манеж) with glass sides and air conditioning it looked like keeping a baby in an aquarium.
In 1945, he became the chairman of the psychology department at Indiana University In 1948, he was invited to come to Harvard, where he stayed for the rest of his life. He was a very active man, doing research and guiding hundreds of doctoral candidates as well as writing many books. While not successful as a writer of fiction and poetry, he became one of our best psychology writers, including the book Walden II, which is a fictional account of a community run by his behaviorist principles.
August 18, 1990, B. F. Skinner died of leukemia after becoming one of the most famous psychologists after Sigmund Freud.

Kherson is the southern Ukrainian city. It is built on the right bank of the river Dnieper. If you want to go to the Black Sea it will take you 1,5 hours by car or 2 hours by bus. The climate here is dry. Winters are cold and summers are hot, and the winds often blow. In summer many people go to the river bank or to the Black Sea, and there are many fruit and vegetables: apples, cherries, strawberries, peaches, grapes, tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, etc.
Population of Kherson is nearly 360, 000 people. Today it is a large sea- and river-port. There are two bridges over the Dnieper which join Kherson and a smaller town Tsurupinsk. There are wonderful views of the river and the countryside. There is fresh air and good climate, so many tourists visit Kherson in summer. Kherson is over 200 years old. Admiral Ushakov and his soldiers built many ships here in the 18th century and fought with Turkish army. Russian army won.
10 years ago the main branches of industry here were ship-building, textile and building of agricultural machines. But there is an economic crisis in Ukraine nowadays, so many factories closed down. Nowadays the main branches of industry are ship-building and tinned food factories, but there is not enough work for all people. Those who work don’t earn much. There are many good colleges and universities such as the Kherson State University, the Technical University, the Shipbuilding University and the Agricultural University.

Famous psychologist. Jean-Martin Charcot
Jean-Martin Charcot was born in Paris on November 29, 1825. He received his Master's degree at the University of Paris in 1853. In 1860 he became a professor at his alma mater. Two years later, he began to work at hospital as well. In 1882, he opened a neurological clinic and became known throughout Europe. Students came from everywhere to study the new field. Among them were Alfred Binet and a young Sigmund Freud.
Charcot is well known in medical circles for his studies of the neurology of motor disorders, resulting diseases and localization of brain functions. He is considered the father of modern neurology.
In psychology, he is best known for his use of hypnosis to successfully treating women suffering from the psychological disorder then known as hysteria.
Charcot believed that hysteria was due to a congenitally (врожденно) weak nervous system, combined with the effects of some traumatic experience. Hypnotizing these patients brought on a state similar to hysteria itself. He found that, in some cases, the symptoms would actually lessen after hypnosis, although he was only interested in studying hysteria, not in curing it. Others would later use hypnosis as a part of curing the problem. Charcot died in France, on August 16, 1893.
