The United Kingdom is made up of four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Their capitals are London, Edinburgh Cardiff and Belfast respectively. Great Britain consists of England, Scotland and Wales and does not include Northern Ireland. But in everyday speech Great Britain is used to mean the United Kingdom. The capital of the UK is London. The British Isles are separated from the European continent by the North Sea and the English Channel. The western coast of Great Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea.

The north and west of England are mountainous, but all the rest-east, center and south-east is - a vast plain. Mountains are not very high. Ben Nevis in Scotland is the highest mountain (1343 m). There are a lot of rivers in Great Britain, but they are not very long. The Severn is the longest river, while the Thames is the deepest and the most important one.

Read and translate the text: My meals It goes without saying that I prefer to have meals at home. At the weekend I like to get up late and have a good breakfast of scrambled eggs, or pancakes, or something like that. But on weekdays I'm always short of time in the morning. So I just have a cup of strong tea or coffee and a couple of sandwiches. As I spend a lot of time at school (usually eight or nine hours) it's necessary to have a snack at midday just to keep me going. That's why I have to go to the school canteen to have lunch. Our school canteen leaves much to be desired. It has become a tradition with our canteen to serve chops and watery mashed potatoes every day with a glass of cocoa or stewed fruit. But I enjoy my evening meal at home. My mother is a wonderful cook and her dinners are always delicious and various. To begin with, we usually have some salad - tomato and cucumber salad or mixed salad (I like it very much). For the first course we have some soup - noodle, mushroom or cabbage soup, or maybe some fish soup for a change. for the main course we have meat, chicken or fish dishes, for example, steak or fried fish with spaghetti or potatoes (boiled or fried). We also have a lot of vegetables - green peas, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers. I prefer meat to fish but my mother makes me eat fish from time to time. She says it's good for my brains. For dessert we have some fruit, fruit juice or a cup of tea with a slice of cake. On Sundays we sometimes go to McDonald's. I like everything there: cheeseburgers, hamburgers and Big Macs, apple pies and fruit cocktails. But unfortunately we can't afford to go there very often, because it's rather expensive for a family and besides, they say it's not very healthy to eat at McDonald's. Answer the questions: 1. How many meals a day do you usually have? 2. What do you usually have for breakfast? 3. Where do you have lunch (dinner)? 4. How many courses does your lunch (dinner) usually consist of? 5. What is your favourite dish? 6. What vegetables do you like? 7. What do you usually have for dessert? 8. How often do you eat out? 9. Can you cook? 10. Do you agree that the best cooks in the world are men?

Topic 6: Science Read and translate the text: Inventions and inventors The last two centuries were the epoch of scientific and technological revolution when new ideas were being born and new discoveries and inventions were being made. Man has entered space and reached out to the Moon, Venus and Mars, he has created complex cybernetic machines and made nuclear energy work for him, develop modern tools of war, predict earthquakes. Knowledge is essential for people to find their way in the changing world. Science develops more and more solutions to the energy problem. It helped people to learn to use the energy from the sun and from the atom and to share the resources The world knows the names of many great scientists, mathematicians, physicists, chemists, biologists, linguists, historians, etc. A lot of discoveries have been made by them in different fields of science and engineering, improved life for people. A lot of new inventions appear every day to make our lives easier, longer, warmer, and speedier. But only a few inventors design a new machine or product that becomes so well-known that it is named after its creator. I want to tell you about the inventors who gave their names to the thing they created. Charles Rolls was born in 1881 in Great Britain. He died in 1910. He was an aristocrat and businessman. He was especially interested in cars. Once he met another enthusiast of cars Henry Royce. Henry Royce was a famous car engineer. They decided to design the most comfortable and reliable car. At the beginning of the 20th century it seemed to be a fantasy. But they worked hard and at last in1907 they created the world-famous Rolls-Royce car. It was so comfortable and reliable that one of the models of Rolls-Royce cars "Silver Ghost" hadn't changed greatly for 20 years since 1907. Gottlieb Daimler and Charles Bens were two inventors. They lived in Germany. They were both interested in car production. At the end of the 19th century each of them designed a car. At the same time they organized two independent firms to produce them. All the cars produced by the firm of Daimler were called "Mercedes". Mercedes was a daughter's name of one of the stockholders of the firm. This man saved the firm of Daimler from the financial crisis at the beginning of the 20th century. But after the World War 1 the firm of Daimler met with financial difficulties again. This time it had to join the firm of Benz. Since that time all the cars produced by the firm "Daimler-Benz" have been called "Mercedes-Benz". Answer the questions: 1. Why is science so important in the modern world? 2. What proves that the study of science is important for understanding of the natural world? 3. Which great Russian scientist worked out the theory of space flights and designed the first rocket? 4. What achievements have been made in space exploration? 5.

Think of some interesting information about Stavropol: Stavropol Stavropol was founded in 1777 by Alexander Suvorov. Now it is the regional center of Stavropol Territory located in the South-West of Russian Federation on the North Caucasus. Originally Stavropol was a fortress and now one of the sights of the town is its ruined wall in the center of it. Historical exhibits concerning that period you can find in Prave Museum of Local Lore near the central square. It's advisable to start doing the sights just from this place. Buildings of the local government faces the square. Lermontov Library is opposite it. Next to it there's two-storied building of a bookshop and the stadium "Dynamo" is from the other side of it. Lermontov Theatre is not far from the square. It's just from the other side of the government's building. And both of them are surrounded by trees, bushes and flower-beds. The central and main shopping street is Karl Marx Street. It leads from the center to the Railway Station. Cinemas, Universities, Art Museum and Art Gallery, Bus Station, churches are also in the center of Stavropol. The building of circus is on the way to the Railway Station. The ground near the monument to the soldier of the Civil War provides a panoramic view of the suburbs. The districts in the South-West and in the North-West are rather new. In the South-West district there is a great number of schools, shops, places for rest and recreation. A large park joins the South -West and the North-West districts together. The North-west district is the industrial part of the town. There is a lot of factories, plants and works. Also some hospitals are there. Stavropol is one of the greenest towns in the country. It's surrounded by forests and also there are some green islands within it.
