V. The captains' contest.

Now it is our captains' turn. What can you tell us about Scotland and Wales? Choose any card you want and show it to everybody. So the captain of Team 1 will tell us about Scotland and the captain of Team 2 has to ask him 2 ques­tions about this country.

And now the captain of Team 2 will tell us about Wales. You'll get one point for your pronunciation, one more point-for your questions, and one more point - for your answers. For example, the questions for the captain of Team 1 are:

1. What is one of the best known monuments in Edinburgh?

2. What is the Edinburgh military tattoo?

And the questions for the captain of Team 2 are:

1. Who is the patron saint of Wales?

2. What is the national game of Wales?

VI. The symbols of the countries.

We need two artists from each team for the next contest. Do you know the symbols of England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland? Take these sheets of paper and use many-coloured pens. You must draw:

1. for Team 1-the symbols of England and Wales;

2. for Team 2-the symbols of Scotland and Ireland.

You have to write their names too.

Show us your pictures, please, and read the names of these symbols. You get 1 point for each symbol.

The symbol of England is a rose. The symbol of Ireland is a shamrock. The symbol of Wales is a daffodil. The sym­bol of Scotland is a thistle.

VII. The crossword puzzle.
