The difference between so and such
Наречие so переводится “так”, “такой” . Оно употребляется только с прилагательным или другим наречием (без существительного).
Например: This film is so interesting. He speaks so slowly.
Часто so употребляется с конструкцией “so … that”: The book is so interesting that I can’t stop reading.
So употребляется также в so many / so much (так много); so few / so little (так мало).
Прилагательное such переводится “такой, -ая, -ое, -ие). Such употребляется в словосочетании “such + прилагательное + (артикль) + существительное”: It is sucha beautiful dress! Также such может употребляться только с существительным: Such people are always boring.

Part 3
Let’s go to the Moon, shall we? Let’s go to the Moon!
And as we fly so high above the trees
We’ll see if the Moon is really made of cheese.
So let’s go to the Moon, shall we? Let’s go to the Moon!
Helen: They are flying on and on. Do you think they’ll land on the Moon? We’ll see later. But first let’s have a look at some pictures from our story. Here’s the rocket. It’s remote controlled. Come and speak with me: remote controlled. It does everything automatically. Jill was a bit afraid. But Jack said, “We’ll be quite safe.” There is an automatic snack bar on board. Jack said, “We won’t get hungry or thirsty.” And here’s the green light. Jack said, “We’re ready for take-off.” When Jack was counting down Jill asked another question. Jack gotangry and said, “Don’t interrupt me. I’m counting.” And I won’t interrupt you while you watch our story again.

Let’s go to the Moon, shall we? Let’s go to the Moon!
And if a little moonman we should see
We’ll knock at his door and ask him home for tea.
So let’s go to the Moon, shall we? Let’s go to the Moon!
Jack: The engine has stopped.
Jill: Are we on the Moon?
Jack: Yes, we are. Look, what a fantastic sight! Let’s get off the rocket.
Jill: There are footprints.
Jack: Somebody must have been here before us.
Jill: Welcome to the Moon. You’re 240.000 miles from the Earth.
Jack:Fancy, Jill, we’re walking on the Moon.
Helen: Once upon a time there were two children called Jack and Jill. They were up to (готовы к) all sorts of mischief while they lived on Earth. One day a rocket landed in their garden. They climbed into that rocket and wentoff (отправились) together to explore the Moon leaving all their friends back on Earth. Let’s hope nothing ever happened to them.
I’m sorry but I must say goodbye to all our Playtime friends.
