F **Объяснение для учеников:** В этом задании вам нужно было внимательно прочитать текст и определить, какие из утверждений соответствуют тексту (True), какие противоречат (False), а о каких в тексте ничего не сказано (Not Stated). * **True (T)**: Утверждение верно, если оно прямо указано в тексте или логически следует из него. * **False (F)**: Утверждение неверно, если оно противоречит тому, что сказано в тексте. * **Not Stated (NS)**: Утверждение нельзя подтвердить или опровергнуть, опираясь только на текст. Информации об этом нет. Пример: В первом утверждении говорится, что Иван любит природу. В тексте сказано, что он любит кататься на велосипеде и видеть парки, пруды, реки и поля за городом. Это значит, что он любит природу, поэтому ответ True. В седьмом утверждении говорится, что Алекс хорошо разбирается в фотографии и принимает участие в выставках. В тексте сказано, что Алекс увлекается фотографией и фотографирует всё, что видит. Но нет информации о том, участвует ли он в выставках. Поэтому ответ Not Stated. Важно опираться только на информацию, представленную в тексте, и не додумывать.
