Modern airports are always safe.
There are many security systems in modern airports.
There are many new rules at the international airports.
Passenger numbers are expected to grow in the near future.
Modern airports have good road infrastructure that allows reaching the airport by public transport, taxi or car fast and in time.

Exercise 18. Read and dramatize the dialogue between the stewardess and the passenger:
Stewardess: This way, gentlemen. These seats are yours. If you want anything, gentlemen, there’s a stewardess call button over there. The individual loudspeaker is at your right.
Passenger: OK. Is smoking allowed here?
Stewardess: The sign over there will answer your question, sir.
Passenger: Oh, yes. Thank you. It’ll be a good reminder.
Stewardess: The smoking-room is at the rear of the plane.
Passenger: When do we take off?
Stewardess: In ten minutes’ time. If you feel tired, you may adjust the seat in a reclining position.
Passenger: Yes, thank you.
Stewardess: If you feel hungry, you’ll be provided with a hot meal on the way.
Passenger: Oh, that’s fine! And when can we have it?
Stewardess: As soon as we reach altitude. I hope you will enjoy the flight.
Passenger: Thank you.
Exercise 19. Speak on the following situations:
1. A friend of yours is going abroad and asks you about Customs rules at the Customs. Tell him about restricted and prohibited goods.
2. You are at the information desk. Ask the clerk for information about the nearest flight to Paris; available hotels and places to change your money into the U.S. currency.
3. You are an airport agent. A tourist asks you how to get to the Don Plaza Hotel. Give him the information about public transport running to the centre of the city. Speak about the advantages and disadvantages of taking different means of transport.
Exercise 20. Act out the dialogues.
Dialogue 1
Дэниела: Привет!
John: Hi!
Дэниела: Ты знаешь, через какой коридор идти?
John: No. Let’s ask a Customs officer.
Дэниела: Извините, не могли бы Вы сказать мне, через какой коридор нам идти?
Officer: If you’ve got anything to declare you go through the red channel. If you haven't got anything to declare you go through the green channel.
Дэниела: Как мне узнать, имею ли я что-либо для внесения в декларацию?
Officer: Are you staying in Britain for more than six months?
Дэниела: Нет.
Officer: Well, the amount of goods you can bring in without paying duty depends on where you bought them. You can have two hundred cigarettes, one litre of spirits, two litres of wine and presents worth twenty-eight pounds if you bought them in a country not in the EEC...
Джон: Хорошо. У меня есть 1,5 литра бренди и 3 литра вина, которое я купил в Италии. У меня нет никаких подарков. Это значит, что я не имею ничего, подлежащего обложению таможенной пошлиной.
Officer: That’s right. You can go through the green channel.
Дэниела: У меня только две сотни сигарет и 1 литр виски, которые я купила в самолете, но у меня есть видеокамера, которую я купила в Италии за 200 фунтов. Это подарок другу моего отца.
Officer: Then you must go through the red channel.
Дэниела: Спасибо. ( Джону) Может, встретимся в магазине в аэропорту?
John: Sure.
