Part One – Reading – Task One. Read and understand the story. Прочитайте и поймите рассказ.

Which heart is better? Once there lived two brothers. They were very much alike, but they were quite different people. One was happy when other people were happy and sad when others were sad. The other brother never took care of other people. «You never help people, you only take care of yourself», said the first brother. «Yes, I take care of myself», said the second brother, «because I want to live a long and happy life.» One day the two brothers parted. One brother lived long. His heart never troubled him. The other brother went to many places and everywhere he went, people said: «He has left a bit of his heart with us.» Many years passed and two brothers met again. When the second brother saw his brother, he thought: «Is this young man my brother? How can it be? He is so young, his hair is not white as my hair is» It was true. The first brother looked young and his heart was stronger than before. Do you understand why it was so? Because the first brother shared the joys and sorrows of his fellow men and it made his heart stronger and stronger. The second brother did not say anything. He went slowly home. He was old and unhappy.
