Вариант № 3

Wales and the Welsh

A Wales is a lovely country. Though, there is no "frontier", no Customs officers, no armed guard at the boundary between England and Wales, you know immediately that you are in Wales; you soon hear Welsh being spoken and see long Welsh names on sign-posts and railway stations, most often beginning with "Llan" – Llanderis, Llandudno, Llanfair, etc.

B The countryside is lovely with great mountains, some of them beautiful and green, others are bare and wild. There are gentle valleys with little farmhouses or cottages scattered on the slopes of the mountains and quiet lakes or rivers running down to the coast which is only twenty or thirty miles away, in some places the mountains run right down into the sea.

C The Welsh people are almost purely Celtic, who escaped intermixture with the invaders and they love their country dearly. Unlike the Englishman, who has spread his empire to the four corners of the Earth, the Welshman has never been an empire-builder – in fact, he hasn't been able even to unite his own country and until 1956 there was no even the capital of Wales, as London is the capital of England, Edinburgh of Scotland and Belfast of (North) Ireland.

D The Welsh are countrymen not townsmen, they always preferred to live in small groupings. The family is the center of Welsh life, and his village is just an extended family and he doesn't generally go far away from his home. When a Welshman is away from his home he feels deep passionate homesickness for his home. Perhaps, it isn't for "Wales", it is for some small part of it, a tiny village, a hillside, where his family lives.
