MY NATIVE TOWN
My native town is Gomel. I was born here and I’m a resident of this
city. I’m fond of this place and always talk willingly about the town and
wonderful people who live in it.
Gomel is situated in a picturesque place in the south-east of the Republic.
The landscape in this part of the country is very beautiful – a wide river Sozh
with sandy banks and large forest areas is stretching for many kilometers.
81

Gomel is a regional city. It is the second largest town in our Republic. It
covers an area of about 120 square kilometers and has a lot of suburbs. The
population of the town is about 550 thousand citizens.
Gomel is an ancient town and has a long history. It was fi rst mentioned
in the chronicles in 1142. During the period of World War II the city was
destroyed but rapidly was rebuilt anew by hands of careful and loving citizens.
Today Gomel is an important industrial centre of the Republic of
Belarus. Over one hundred thirty enterprises of mechanical engineering,
light, food, chemical and other industries function here. Forage and grain
harvesters, metal-working machine tools, measuring instruments, cable,
chemical fertilizers and constructional details, radio equipment, footwear
and knitted wear, furniture and confectionary, tableware and toys, diamond
processing products are produced in Gomel. Such companies and enterprises
as “Kristall”, “Spartak”, “Gomselmash”, “Gomeldrev”, “Gomel Chemical
Plant”, “Komintern”, “Gomelsteklo”, “8 Marta” and others are known far
away from Belarus.
Much attention is paid to the professional training of experts in various
branches of science, culture and production. About 35 thousand students
study in seven higher educational establishments. Young citizens are provided
with special, professional and secondary education in 15 technical schools,
16 technical training colleges, and 72 establishments of secondary education.
Gomel has always been a cultural centre. Here one can fi nd a great amount
of culture centres, libraries, musical schools and art schools. We also have
the Drama Theatre, regional philharmonic, state and social museums. Bright
performances under the dome of Gomel Circus bring great happiness both to
children and adults.
But the beloved place of Gomel citizens is our park. A shady park where
a number of rare exotic trees grow alongside with oaks, limes, maples and
elms, which are very popular in our country, stretches around a marvelous
building – the Palace-Park Complex of the Rumyantsevs and the Paskeviches.
It is the main place of historical importance. The Palace is one of the most
beautiful examples of architecture in Belarus. Currently the unique museum
complex in central Gomel unites the palace, the chapel and the burial vault,
the winter garden, the watchtower and the picturesque old park. I’d like to
admit that nowadays Gomel park as well as the Palace Complex is under
protection of UNESCO.
And in the end I’d like to say I consider Gomel one of the best towns in
our Republic. It’s a wonderful and beautiful place to live in, so I don’t want
to change it for another place of living.
Note:
willingly – охотно, с готовностью.

READING AND SPEAKING PRACTICE
23. Прочитайте и письменно переведите на русский язык текст А,
пользуясь словарем.
Text A. The House
Man has always been a builder. The kind of house he built depended upon
the climate, upon his enemies, and upon the building materials at hand. The
fi rst houses in many parts of the world were made of wood, for in those days
the greater part of the Earth was covered with forests. Men tied together
the tops of several trees and covered them with the skins of animals or with
leaves and grass. So, a tent or hut, was the fi rst house of the primitive people
who lived where there was much wood.
In Africa and some islands of the South Pacifi c they used grass or leaves
that grew nearby. In the south-western part of the United States the Pueblo
Indians used sun-dried bricks to build their houses.
In other regions the most convenient building material was stone. Men
began building houses out of stone very long ago. Although they were built
without cement, the remains of a few of them still exist.
Even though today you can transport materials all over the world, it is still
easier and cheaper to use the materials that are at hand. There are four basic
kinds of material that are used today.
In the northern part of North America and in northern Europe wood has
been the main building material for many centuries. Early settlers in America
built log cabins and in Scandinavia people designed wooden houses with
large beams and balconies.
89

Brick is among the oldest and most popular building materials. It lasts
long and is easy to get. Brick is often used to build row houses. Early Dutch
settlers brought bricks across the Atlantic to build their fi rst houses.
Stone is the longest lasting of all building materials. Weather cannot
destroy it so much and insects and animals cannot bore into it as they can into
wood. Stone has been used for many centuries because it cannot be destroyed
by fi re. It has been used for all sorts of houses, from palaces to farmers’
cottages.
In modern buildings we use concrete instead of stone and brick. It is
cheaper and can be produced almost everywhere. Concrete is a mixture of
sand, broken stones, water and other materials. Cement is added to hold it
together. Steel rods are often put into the concrete to hold it together when
buildings get higher.
The world’s tallest buildings are skyscrapers. They fi rst appeared in New
York and Chicago at the end of the 19
th
century. Skyscrapers are often like
small cities. They off er space for offi ces, apartments, shops, hotels, restaurants
and other services. Thousands of people live and work there.
Skyscrapers have two parts: the foundation is the part below the ground
and the superstructure is the part above the ground. Both sections hold the
weight of the building.
A skyscraper needs careful planning before it can be built. First a big hole
a few storeys deep is dug into the earth. Sometimes this foundation reaches
into solid rock. Then steel and concrete beams and columns are placed into
it. They carry the weight of the superstructure.
When the foundation is fi nished, cranes are used to raise a steel frame up
into the sky. The pieces of this frame are bolted together. As it moves upward
other workers lay fl oors and hang in the outside walls. The complete structure
of the skyscraper must be fi nished before the inside systems can be installed.
A skyscraper must also be able to hold off strong winds. Modern buildings
are able to swing a few metres in each direction, like a tree, without damaging
the structure. Sometimes a steel core rises upwards from the inside of the
building to give it better support.
Note:
the Pueblo Indians – индейцы Пуэбло.
