Week 15 on one plate. Lesson 29, Monday: читать, прочитать; писать, написать; Я сдал экзамен, I passed the exam; Вчера я долго решал задачу, yesterday I worked on the problem for a long time. Lesson 30, Thursday: Когда я читал, я слушал музыку, while I was reading I listened to music; Когда я прочитал книгу, я написал письмо, when I had finished the book I wrote a letter; Я прочитаю книгу завтра, I'll finish the book tomorrow; Я должен выучить слова, I must learn the words.
