Упр. 8. Вы получили эту открытку от своих родных. Прочтите ее.

Dear Vera,

At last I am in London. I like everything here, especially the red buses and telephone booths. Here you can see both single and double deck buses. At the bus stop you read the routes, the numbers and their times. The sign ‘Request stop’ means that buses stop only if your hold out your hand.

The traffic in London keeps to the left and you must be very careful when you cross the street.

Yours, Mila.
