Short text. English character and traditions.    


A nation is born from its land, its history, its art, its traditions and its institutions. These things work together to make people what they are.      ,  ,  ,    .    ,  , ,   .

But above all, a nation is made up of people, and although there are things they all share, all of those people are different.   ,     ,    ,   ,   ,    .

We can say there is still a British nation, and one of the most characteristic features of Englishmen is their traditions, which they respect, and which they have kept for centuries.   ,     ,           ,   ,     .

The traditions dont only accumulate the experience and wisdom of many generations, but they bring some stability into the rapidly changing world.         ,         .

British people keep their old traditions and are very proud of them. They are famous for their sense of humor. English people show a great love for animals.         .       .      .

And, of course, English people are fond of sports.To many Englishmen cricket is both a game and a standard of behavior. When they consider something unfair, they say That isnt cricket. , ,   .         ,    .    - ,       .

Some people believe the English eat porridge for breakfast and read the Times every day. It also depends on the person and his habits.   ,           .        .

The traditional love of English people for tea is well known. They like to drink tea with milk. They have their five-oclock tea not only at home or in offices, but also in tea-rooms and tea-shops, which can be found in every town.       .      .             ,        ,      .

Foreigners have many ideas about what the English are like. For example, some people say the English are always cold and reserved, which means that they dont talk much to strangers, and dont show much emotion.      ,     . ,  ,        ,  ,            .

It is not true. Most part of the people is openhearted, kind and likes to talk. But it is true that English people are famous for their habit of politeness.  .   ,    .   ,       .

Short text. The main towns of Scotland.   


Glasgow and Edinburgh are two great centres of Scotland. There are only 45 miles between them; and, although it only takes an hour to get from Glasgow to Edinburgh, the cities are very different. Glasgow is its largest and busiest town, and Edinburgh is its capital.        .     45 ,     ,      ,    .       ,     .

Glasgow is the heart of industry. It is a center of business and trade. It is very busy, prosperous, and is typically industrial in appearance.    .     .   ,       .

Edinburgh is rather cold but attractive. When you walk around the city, every step is a step in history. Practically every building has a tale to tell.    ,  .     ,        .       .

The two most interesting parts of the city are the Old Town and the New Town. The Old Town lies between the Castle and Holyrood Palace.            .        .

The Castle, in fact, is older than the city. No one can exactly say when the first settlers arrived at the huge rock that stands high above Edinburgh. Later they built a castle here. , ,  .      ,       ,    .     .

It looks beautiful in all weather, but at night, when lights are shining on it, it looks just like a castle in a fairytale. It is not surprising that the Castle attracts a lot of tourists.      ,  ,    ,      . ,     .

One of the most modest, and yet one of the best known monuments in Edinburgh, is a monument to a dog called Bobby. The dog belonged to John Gray. When John Gray died, Bobby lived near his grave for twenty-six years. Later Bobby was buried near his master and his statue in Old Town has become a symbol of devotion.    ,                 .    .    ,         26 .        ,         .

Old Town is a striking contrast to New Town with its white and beautiful streets. Princes Street is the most beautiful street of New Town. It is Edinburghs popular shopping center.             .        .     .

Princess Street lies between New Town and Old Town. The modern part is on the lower side, and the older part is on the upper side. The old and the new look at each other across the valley, under Scotlands blue sky.         .        ,      .               .




Short text. British group Dire Straits.    


Dire Straits are a British rock band, formed in 1977 by Mark Knopfler (guitar and vocals), David Knopfler (guitar), John Illsley (bass) and Pick Withers (drums), and managed by Ed Bicknell. Dire Straits   -,   1977    (  ),   (),   ()    ()    .

In an era when punk rock reigned, they played subdued, almost old-school rock and roll. Despite this complete antithesis to popular culture at the time, Dire Straits still became hugely successful.  ,   -,   ,   --.         , Dire Straits     .

Dire Straits recorded and released their first, self-titled album in 1978 to little fanfare but five months later a single release, Sultans of Swing became an unlikely chart hit and album sales took off. Dire Straits         1978    ,           ,      .

The second album followed soon afterwards; these first two albums featured a stripped-down band sound.      ;        .

The third album Making Movies marked a move towards more complex arrangements which would continue throughout the bands career.          ,        .

The bands 1985 release Brothers in Arms was an international hit and spawned several singles including the number one hit Money for Nothing.  1985           ,        .

Aiding the success of Brothers in Arms was the fact that it was one of the first fully digitally recorded and produced albums available in the new Compact Disc format.        ,            ,    ,     -.

This had the accidental side effect of making it one of the must buy albums for consumers wishing to demonstrate the new technology.     ,     ,    ,    .

Partly as a result of this Dire Straits were the biggest selling band in the world in the mid 1980s.  -  Dire Straits         1980-.

The popularity of the band extends beyond the UK and US: in many parts of the world including India, Southeast Asia and Africa, Dire Straits has been one of the most well-known and admired western bands.        :    ,  , -   , Dire Straits         .

The bands line-up changed over the years, but one constant was Mark Knopfler, who wrote most of the bands songs and acted as clear leader of the band.     ,     ,           .

Dire Straits were active from 1977 to 1988 and again from 1991 to 1995. Dire Straits are one of the worlds best-selling music artists, with album sales of over 100 million. Dire Straits    1977  1988    1991  1995 . Dire Straits         ,    ,   100 .

Dire Straits sound draws from various influences including country, folk, the blues rock and jazz. Their stripped-down sound contrasted with punk rock and demonstrated a roots rock influence that emerged from pub rock.   Dire Straits   ,  , , -  .      -     ,   -.

Called the biggest British rock band of the 80s by Classic Rock magazine, their 19851986 world tour, set a record in Australia.        - 80-,    19851986 ,    .

Their final world tour from 1991 to 1992 sold 7.1 million tickets.
