  • A Message from Mayor Ronald M. Serpico Speaking of Sunny, Glorious Days and Baseball!
    The Official Newsletter of the Village of Melrose Park TheROSE Winter 2017 A Message From Mayor Ronald M. Serpico Speaking of Sunny, Glorious Days and Baseball! Dear Neighbors, This is incredible – I am writing this letter with the windows opened in my office and it's February! As I drove around town I saw people in shorts walking or biking! I felt like a bear waking up from his long winter's hibernation to a beautiful spring day, but instead of a glorious day in April the calendar staring this old bear in the face showed Feb. 22 to be the date. We have also bro- ken the 134-year-old record of 64 consecutive days without a measurable amount of fallen snow. And speaking of sunny days, I am proud to announce that one of my goals as mayor came to fruition on a bright Dec. 22 morn- ing when I helped cut the ribbon for the new 25th Avenue railroad overpass just south of Lake Street and then had the honor of driving the first car over it. That's right, the days of endless waits are finally over as we can now drive above the 59 Metra trains and 52 freight trains that Ronald M. Serpico pass through this location daily. On average, 19,000 vehicles travel this stretch of 25th Avenue each and every day. The over- Mayor pass will benefit residents by serving as a conduit for economic development, quicker emergency vehicle response times and a safer traffic flow. This is much more than a railroad overpass – this is a bridge to a better quality of life for our entire community.

  • English Grammar Practice
    English Grammar Practice Учебно-методическое пособие по практической грамматике для студентов 1 курса специальности «Современные иностранные языки» THE VERB “TO BE” “THERE IS (ARE)” CONSTRUCTION We use ―there is (are)‖ constructions talking about the existence or absence of people or things in a definite place. These constructions have the meaning «есть, имеется, находится, существует». The verb ―to be‖ in such constructions can be used in different tense forms: there is/are, there was/were, there will be, there has/have been, there had been. The verb ―to be‖ in such constructions can be used with modal verbs (can, may, must, ought to): There must be a dictionary on the shelf. We can also use some other verbs after ―there‖ – to live, to exist, to stand, to lie, etc.: There exist different opinions on the problem. In ―there is (are)‖ constructions we observe the following word order: ―there is (are)‖+subject+adverbial modifier of time/place. The corresponding Russian sentences begin with adverbial modifiers: There is a telephone in my room. – В моей комнате есть (имеется) телефон. See the difference: The telephone is in my room. – Телефон в моей комнате. If the subjects are of different number the predicate agrees with the subject that stands first: There is a table and six chairs in the room. There were some books and a dictionary on the desk. Commentary: ―There are plenty of books on the bookshelves in her study‖ is a sentence with the introductory ― there‖ which is used to point out the existence of some things in a definite place, the subject of the sentence is expressed by a countable noun in plural.

It was early evening (about half past six) : Of alcohol, he’d no doubt had a sizeable fix. A battered blue bicycle, he wheeled by his side – That battered blue bicycle, I prayed he’d not ride. Upon a wooden bench, he sat himself down, Then, from out of his mouth, came a terrible sound. I guessed that the sound was supposed to be a song, But the words were all garbled and the tune all wrong. His musical accompaniment was his bicycle bell – What song he sang, I was quite unable to tell. I doubted he’d be on The X-Factor anytime soon, As he sat on his bench beneath a crescent-shaped moon. On the opposite side of the road, I very sensibly stayed, But a smile graced my lips as I went on my way.
