73 percent of people drink traditional tea, com¬pared to six percent who prefer Earl Grey tea, 53 percent of people treat their pets like a mem¬ber of the family, 39 percent think the weather is the most annoying aspect of living in Britain. People generally don't mind queuing and can be spotted abroad by their tanned skin, football shirts, wearing socks with sandals and a pint of beer in their hand. 6 A recent survey showed that 31% of British people said they were British and gave no other answer, 50% described themselves only as English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish, and 13% said both of these. In Scotland 80% said they were Scottish and 20% said they were British. In Wales 62% said they were Welsh and 35% mentioned British. In England, 67% said they were English and 48% British. The survey did not cover Northern Ireland. 7 Britain is just under 1,000 kilometers long, from the south coast to the extreme north of Scotland, and just under 500 kilometers across at the widest point. No place in GB is more than 117 kilometers from the sea. A – The nose B – English character C – Unusual gift D – What is their nationality? E – What do the British say about themselves?

It is a vast continent, made up of mainland Australia and of island of Tasmania to the south. The Australian continent is washed in the north by the Timor and Arafura Seas and Torres Strait, in the east by the Tasman and Coral Seas, of the South Pacific Ocean, in the south by Bass Strait and the Indian Ocean. Australia is the flattest of the continents. Its most important chain is the Great Dividing Range running down most of the east coast. Other mountains include the Kimberley and Hamersley Ranges in Western Australia, the Flinders Range in South Australia. The centre of the continent is taken by the deserts: Great Sandy Desert, Great Victoria Desert, and Simpson Desert. There are few rivers in Australia. Its best known river is the Murray. The longest is the Darling. 2. Great Britain is the name of the largest island of the British Isles and it is made up of England, Scotland and Wales, it doesn't include Northern Ireland. Geographically, the island of Great Britain is subdivided into two main regions — Lowland Britain and Highland Britain. Lowland Britain comprises southern and eastern England. Highland Britain consists of Scotland, most of Wales, the Pennines, and the Lake District. The Pennine Chain extends southward from the Cheviot Hills into the Midlands. The chief rivers of Great Britain are: the Severn, the Avon, the Thames and some others. There are many lakes in Great Britain. The coasts of England are washed by the North Sea, the Irish Sea, the English Channel and the Strait of Dover. Scotland includes the Hebrides off the west coast, and the Orkney and Shetland Islands off the north coast. It is bounded by the North Sea in the east. The Highlands of Scotland are among the oldest mountains in the world. Most of the population of Scotland is concentrated in the Lowlands. Here on the Clyde, is Glasgow, Scotland's biggest city. Wales is a highland country of old, hard rocks. North Wales is a country of mountains and deep valleys. South Wales is a land of high hills and wide valleys. The pride of Wales in scenery is Snowdonia, a region of high mountains. Snowdon is the highest mountain in England and Wales. 3. The USA covers 9,372,614 square kilometres. It is washed by the Atlantic Ocean in the east and by the Pacific Ocean in the west. It stretches from Canada in the north to Mexico, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Gulf of California in the south. The USA is divided into three areas: Eastern area — highland, where the Appalachian Mountains are situated, Central area — plain, and Western area which is mountainous and includes the Cordilleras and the Rocky Mountains. The north - east¬ern part of the USA is the region of the five Great Lakes. The St. Lawrence River joins the water of the five lakes to the Atlantic Ocean. In the west of the USA there is another lake called the Great Salt Lake. The main rivers of the USA are the Mississippi, the Missouri, the Yukon, the Colorado, the Columbia, the St.-Lawrence, and the Hudson. 4. Russia is washed in the north by the Arctic Ocean and its seas: the Barents, Chukchee, East Siberian, Kara, Laptev and White Seas, in the south by the Black, Azov and.Caspian Seas; in the east by the Bering Sea the Sea of Japan, and Okhotsk Sea; in the west by the Baltic Sea. The size of Russia is hard to imagine. A flight from Moscow to Magadan takes eight hours. Russia is a land of long rivers and large lakes. Among the world's longest rivers rank the North Dvina, the three mighty Siberian rivers: Ob, Lena and Yenisei, and the Amur. The largest of all Russia's rivers is the Volga. The three largest lakes in Russia are Baikal in South-Eastern Siberia and Ladoga and Onega in Northern Russia. The relief of Russia is mostly flat. It's located on two plains: the Great Russian Plain and the Western Siberian Plain. There are three main mountain ranges in Russia. The Caucasus stretchers from the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea. The highest mountain is Mount Elbrus. The Urals extend from the Arctic Ocean to the steppes. They divide the European and Asian parts of Russia. В 8.

Cruel Queen D. Meeting Royalty E. Citizens or subjects F. Holy kings G. Wrong sequence 1. Some kings were considered too holy to be seen by ordinary people. They lived hidden behind palace walls. At different times, 24 emperors lived in the world's largest palace complex, the Forbidden City, in Beijing, China. Started in the 15th century during the reign of Emperor Yongle, the city took a million men and 16 years to complete. It covers 72 hectares and has 8000 rooms! The last Chinese emperor to live in the Forbidden City was Pu Yi, who left the palace in 1924. 2. Everyone knows about Henry VIII's cruel nature. But they forget about his wives' nasty lit¬tle habits. For example, Catherine of Aragon was left in charge of England while Henry went over to France. While her husband was away, Catherine's army fought the Scottish king, James IV, and beat him. Just to show what a clever girl she was, Catherine sent Henry the blood-stained coat of the dead Scottish king. 3. Kings and queens expect to be treated different¬ly from other people. So you'd better know some simple rules in case you bump into a member of the royal family. - Women are expected to curtsy. Men are expected to bow. - Shake hands if a hand is offered. - It's bad manners to meet royalty with gloves on because, in the past, gloves were associated with warfare. - Until recently it was thought impolite to turn one's back on the Queen of England. People would walk backwards out of their presence. In certain ceremonies lords and other officials still do. 4. Other countries have ‘citizens’. But in Britain people are legally described as ‘subjects’ – subjects of Her Majesty the Queen. And criminals are sent to one of ‘Her Majesty’s’ prisons. 5. More and more immigrants arrive in Britain each year. There’s one street in London – and it’s less than 300 meters long – where all businesses are run by Arabs, Greeks, Indians, Italians, Jamaicans, Nigerians, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish. But now those who want to live in Britain will have to take a test on ‘Britishness’ to show their knowledge of British culture, history and lаws. 6. The present queen of the UK is universally known as ‘Elizabeth the Second’, although Scotland and Northern Ireland have never had an ‘Elizabeth the First’! № текста 1 2 3 4 5 6 тема Повышенный уровень В 1 Прочитайте текст и заполните пропуски 1- 6 частями предложений A - G.

Of these, probably the strangest is social class. There are three main class divisions in Britain with some 'in between' variations (such as 'upper middle'): upper, middle and lower or working class. And people in Britain are 1 …………………….. The different classes in Britain tend to eat different food at different time of the day (and call the meals by different names), they like to talk about different topics, they enjoy 2 ………………… and have different ideas about the correct way to behave. The easiest way to guess the class to which the person belongs to 3 ……………….. A person's accent in Britain is an identity card. Other people will be able to say what social background you come from, where you were born or educated, and what kind of job you do. Changing an accent is difficult, even for actors. To achieve the desired accent, a British person must 4 ………………. This is one of the reasons why people still send their children to expensive private schools. It is not that the education there is better, but because, as adults, they will have the right accent and manners. A person's vocabulary is also very important. Here is a good class-test you can try: when talking to an English person, say some¬thing too quietly for them 5 …… . A lower-middle or middle-middle person will say 'Pardon?'; an upper-middle will say 'Sorry? (or perhaps 'Sorry -what?'); but an upper-class and a working-class person will both say 'What?' The working per¬son, however, will drop the 't' -- 'Wha'?' Toilet' is another word that makes the higher classes 6 ………… correct upper word is 'lavatory' or 'loo'. The working classes all say 'toilet', as do most lower-middles and middle-middles, the only difference being the working-class dropping of the final 't'. An interesting thing about the class system in Britain is that very often it has nothing to do with money. A person with an upper-class accent, using upper-class words, will be recognized as upper class even if he or she is unem¬ployed or homeless. And a person with working-class pronunciation, who calls a sofa a settee, and his midday meal 'dinner', will be identified as work¬ing class even if he is a multi-millionaire living in a grand country house.

A VISIT TO THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT After Frank Candliti David's father and Philip Turner, the Member of Parlia¬ment for Bishopton, are old friends, and one day Mr. Turner asked David if he would like to look round the Houses of Parliament. Of course, David was very pleased, and the visit was arranged for the following Monday. The M.P. explained that the visit must be on Monday because he had got a ticket for the Stranger's Gallery on that day, so that David could listen to a debate in the House of Commons. David arrived at Westminster at half past eleven. The policeman at the door would not let him in, but when he said he was meeting Mr. Philip Turner, the M.P. for Bishopton, he was asked to wait in a little room near the door. When Mr. Turner arrived, he took David to the Stranger's Gallery from which he could look down on what was happening in the House of Commons below. Facing him was the Speaker. In front of the Speaker, clerks sat at green-covered tables, and on the seats on either side sat the Members, the Government on the Speaker's right, the opposition on his left. No king or queen of England is allowed to enter the House of Commons. David was amused to see Members on the front seats sitting with their feet on the table in front of them. Some members seemed asleep; others were talking to those sitting next to them. Members were coming in and out all the time. If the Members liked what a Speaker was saying they shouted "Hear, hear!", if they did not like it, they shouted "No!" Once the members on the other side became angry and shouted "Shame!" and "Sit down!" until the Speaker told them to stop. When there was a question to be decided all the Mem¬bers voted. То do this they went out through two doors at the side. Those who thought "yes" went through one door; those who thought "no" through the other. As they went through the doors, they were counted. Then they all came back and the Speaker was told how many there were on each side; and so the matter was decided. David listened to the debate until late in the afternoon. It was all very in¬teresting, but not quite what he had expected. As he went home by train to Bishopton he thought that he had learnt a lot about the English way of life. |
