Question

[8after8.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the comments to my previous post.
The lesson went ok (though now I would choose another article)). The words the student didn't know were: выпуск, не обязывающий, распределение, полномочий, крупнейшая, объединение, владельцем, совместном, силовые, этапе.
I found a test for foreigners and one of the questions was:
Я всегда ... новости из Интернета
1) беру
2) получаю
3) имею
"Я всегда получаю новости из Интернета" seems not very good for me, but I can be wrong. What do you think?
(I am native Russian)

я всегда узнаю новости из Интернета.
беру/получаю/имею these words seem not correct. Ask about it in pishu_pravilno

I'd say it's the lesser of the evils:)
So your student isn't that upper in his intermediary?

I don't like "получаю", either. I'd have chosen "беру", if this sentence had been alone with no hints provided. IT-reality, heh. :)
But, I must say, that, when sentence is provided with the appropriate context, I can quite imagine any one of these three options being used. Russian is not that plain language as some test composers might want to think.

Oh, and yes, I do remember, something like that: as Putin had become the president, the word "siloviki" was introduced into english.
