However, it does nothing to relax us – we just feel cautious and nervous. It can also make us feel isolated and withdrawn. Therefore, we should think carefully about our colour schemes when the time comes to redecorate because different colours can affect how we feel in a number of ways. That said, though, we should rely on our own taste and surround ourselves with the colours we like and feel comfortable with. Use your favourite colours to create a colour scheme you know you can live with. Exercise 6. Using the vocabulary on the previous page and the text above about the colour psychology, answer the following questions: o Will you describe your ideal/present home, please. Frankly, I find my present home to be quite close to my ideal home. It’s a small one-bedroom apartment with a little kitchen and a tiny garden. I love having my tiny garden, sitting there and drinking coffee in
universities. But it is not an easy thing to choose a profession out of more than 2,000 existing in the world. Some pupils follow the advice of their parents, others can't decide even after leaving school. As for me, I made my choice long ago. I want to become a teacher of the Ukrainian language and literature. My choice of this occupation didn't come as a sudden flash. During all school years literature was my favourite subject. I've read a lot of books by Ukrainian and foreign writers. I understand that reading books helps people in self education and in solving different life problems. I would like to teach my pupils to enjoy reading, to encourage them to learn our national language and literature, which is the source of national culture. It is known that teaching is a very specific and difficult job. It shouldn't be taken easily. The teacher is a person who is learning as well as teaching all his life.
