Text № 1 Another Day in the life of the Queen

Queen Elizabeth II wakes up at seven o'clock in the morning, has a cup of tea and reads the "Times". Then she has a bath and gets dressed. At eight o'clock she listens to BBC news and has breakfast with Prince Philip. After breakfast she rings up the Queen Mother. Then she reads letters and has an important business consultation with Private Secretary and works at government documents. At one o'clock she has a quick lunch in her private apartment in Buckingham Palace and at two o'clock leaves the Palace to open a new hospital. There she makes speeches, shakes hands and has a cup of tea. At four she is back at the Palace and works in her office.

At five o'clock she receives foreign visitors and then has the final meeting with her Private Secretary. In the evening she goes to St. Jame's Palace where she has a reception party and talks with a group of businessmen.

At ten she watches television news, reads the official papers and telephones some members of the Royal Family. At about eleven o'clock she goes to bed.

Text № 2 The Daily Life in London

Here we are in Cheapside. This famous London place is only a quarter of a mile long, and yet, there are a lot of business offices and important shops here. The whole street is full of life. Taxi-cabs, motor-vans, lorries, cars and buses pass up and down, from morning till night.

Although there is so much traffic we notice that there is little dust. The roads and the pavements are of stone, and when it rains, there is no mud.

From eleven to one o'clock the traffic is very busy. It is very dangerous to cross the road from one side to the other.

Soon we come to the Bank Square, where the main building of the Bank of England stands on one side of it. Besides there are the important buildings of the Royal Exchange and the Mansion House, the official residence of the Lord Mayor of London.

The busy people who hurry to and fro are businessmen and shopkeepers, but also we notice faces of tourists. They visit the famous public buildings: the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, the British Museum, the National Gallery, Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, and the bridg­es over the Themes.

Close to the Houses of Parliament stands Westminster Abbey. In this lovely building we can learn much about the history of England. Most of the kings and queens of England were crowned here.

St. Paul's Cathedral is a magnificent church. Sir Christopher Wren was the designer of many buildings in the City after the Great Fire of London, including St. Paul's Cathedral.

Londoners and tourists enjoy expeditions by steamer down the Thames from Westminster to Greenwich. We pass under the bridges, and see the grim walls of the Tower of London.

It was a fortress and a prison for hundreds of years. When a ship moves under Tower Bridge a bell rings

Our steamer continues on its way to Greenwich. We hear the Greenwich time signal on the radio. Greenwich Time is the standard time.

Text № 1

Philip Blake is the eldest son in his family. He does not live with his parents. He has got a comfortable house in a small town near London. Philip is 30 years old, and he is not married. He works in London. He is a manager at a plant. Philip always goes to London on week-days. Sunday is his day off, that's why he does not go to his office on Sunday.

Philip is really a very busy man. His day begins rather early. As usual the alarm clock rings at six o'clock in the morning. He gets up, washes, dresses, has breakfast and leaves home. Philip has a car, so it takes him about thirty minutes to get to his work. At nine o'clock he is in his office. He looks through newspapers because he is interested in the latest political and business events. Then he is busy with the mail.

Philip usually has lunch in a cafe, but sometimes he stays at the plant and has lunch with his colleagues in the canteen. He leaves his office at about six o'clock in the evening. Sometimes he has a lot of work to do and works till seven o'clock. Three times a week Philip has French lessons. He learns the French lan­guage with pleasure. From time to time Philip goes to other cities to discuss business with the customers.

Text № 2 The English Cities

Stradford is a very interesting town, right in the centre of England. There are no mountains or deep valleys near Stradford, but there are a beautiful wood, green fields, a quiet river - the Avon, and lovely houses.

Stradford is a busy city, especially on market days. The first place we go to is Shakespeare's birthplace, a small house with small rooms in the centre of Stradford.

Then we go to the church where Shakespeare is buried. There is a bust of Shakespeare here. We also visit Anne Hathaway's Cottage, about a mile out of Stradford. Anne was Shakespeare's wife, and the cottage is just as it was in their time.

We have a look at the Shakespeare's Memorial Theatre. How nice it is to see a play here! They are doing "A Midsummer Night's Dream" this evening, but we have no tickets.

The city of Bristol, the capital of West Country, is a living text-book of En­gland's history. It was already important as early as the reign of Ethelred (978-1013). It had its own mint. Today it is one of the most prosperous centres of commerce and industry in modern England.

Here the river Avon flows into the mouth of the river Severn, and the city looks westword, the Atlantic Ocean.

City Docks, a very old part of the dock system, lie in the heart of the city itself. The port plays a very important role in the prosperity of Bristol.

Besides Bristol's diverse industries, shipbuilding and repairing, the city is famous for aircraft and aero-engines industry. Another large industrial group in­cludes production of fertilizers, chemicals, and paints.

Bristol is a city of wide cultural interests, and drama, ballet and music are very important here. Education is a strong feature, and in addition to the Univer­sity there are numerous schools of high standing.

The city is rich in lovely parks and open spaces.
