Teacher says (English): “Good morning! Listen to a short story. Yesterday I saw a beautiful rainbow after rain. I remembered that rainbows appear because of photosynthesis of light in water droplets. Do you agree? What’s wrong with my sentence?” Учитель говорит (русский): «Доброе утро! Послушайте короткую историю. Вчера я видел красивую радугу после дождя. Я вспомнил, что радуга появляется из‑за фотосинтеза света в каплях воды. Вы согласны? Что не так в моём предложении?» Teacher waits 30‑40 seconds, then asks: “Which word is wrong? What is the correct term?” (Refraction, not photosynthesis.) Ключевой ответ: «Фотосинтез — это процесс у растений, а преломление света — refraction. Учитель ошибся, чтобы мы заметили.» |
