GREAT BRITAIN
1. Lets talk about Britain. What do you know about this country? The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the official name of the country which comprises England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. It lies off the north-west coast of the European continent. It consists of more than 5500 islands. The biggest island is Great Britain. Among the smallest islands are the Shetland Islands, the Hebrides, the Isle of Man and others.
In England there are many picturesque lakes with green shores and grey mountains. The famous Lake District is the real tourist attraction. Wales and Scotland are mountainous areas. Scotland is a land of famous lakes as well. The largest lake is Loch Ness.
Great Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean and separated from the European continent by the North Sea, the Straight of Dover and the English Channel.
Since 1993 cars have been able to travel between Britain and France in 30 minutes through the English Channel.
2. Would you like to visit Britain? Why (not)? Yes, of course. It would be great to visit this unique country and to learn more about its geography, history and culture on the spot.
3. What would you ask a British teenager about national holidays in Britain? What is the difference between state and bank holidays in Great Britain? What is your favourite holiday? Are there any similar things in celebration of New Year in Great Britain and Belarus?
4. Give me a piece of advice on what sights to see in London. London is one the richest cities in its sights to visit. I strongly recommend you to visit the Bridge of London, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. You can go to Hyde Park just to rest and see the Poets Corner. But the best look on the city is from London Eye.
5. Do the British differ greatly from Belarusian people in character? Why? I think, its true. We differ a lot because of our different languages, customs, traditions and historical development. These are the factors which influence greatly on characters of people.
