THE BRITISH ON HOLIDAY

Many British people have decided that it is not worth spending money on holiday in Britain because the weather is so un reliable. They prefer their money on a package holiday in southern Europe. A package holiday is a cheap form of group travel. You pay a travel agent a sum of money and he arranges a (light, hotel, food and entertainment. All you need is pocket-money when you get to the foreign country. It is sometimes cheaper to go abroad with a package holiday than to stay in England. In spite of this, seaside holidays in Britain are still the most popular and traditional form of holiday for the majority of British people.

Because Britain is quite a small island, no one lives farther than 75 miles from the sea. As soon as the summer weather begins, thousands of people in cars make their way to the coast. Many parents are willing to sit on crowded beaches, in traffic jams, and — sometimes — in bad weather to give their children a seaside holiday. Many of the towns and villages on the south of England are still very beautiful, but oil pollution in the water has become a problem over the last few years.

Many of the larger holiday resorts have piers. Brighton has a famous pier. It is a long platform which stretches out into the sea. You have to pay to go on the pier. On the pier you'll find restaurants, small shops, a theatre or a concert hall, amusements stalls and a fortune-teller. A pier is a very good place when it is too cold to sit on the beach.

The seaside is a place for a family holiday. Many teenagers prefer to go youth-hostelling and hitch-hiking around the country-side. Youth hostels are cheap, but the accommodation is simple. Hitch-hiking is a very cheap way of travelling, but sometimes you have to wait for hours at the side of the road before you get a lift.

A lot of people enjoy active, open-air holidays such as walking or mountaineering, although British mountains are not spectacularly high, there are many rocks and cliffs in Wales and Scotland that are difficult to climb. Professional mountaineers have trained there before going on expeditions to Tibet or South America.

A holiday camp is a complete contrast to this kind of independent, outdoor holiday. It's not a holiday in caravans or tents. It's a holiday at a special camp where people live in small chalets; special staff look after their children; games are organized; entertainment of all kinds is provided and everyone eats in a large dining-hall. Guests never have to leave the gates of the camp. Billy Butlin who started the first holiday camps in Britain is now a rich man. He is-now Sir Billy Butlin, he has been knighted for his services in the country.

HOLIDAY-MAKING

Normally people plan their holidays in advance. Holiday- making people, as a rule, prefer to stick to the same travel agency they have already used before and got their money's worth. On the one hand, they trust the travel agency they've got to know earlier, on the other, they expect to purchase a tour package at a reduced price as regular customers.

Suppose you are not an experienced holiday-maker. You are at a loss which travel agency to choose out of a large amount of agencies offering similar services.

You want an enjoyable holiday at some reasonable price, or at least you don't want to be trapped.

Here are some hints for you. Out of the travel agencies offering similar destinations and tours pick out 4 or 5. Their names should be familiar to you: their ads regularly appear in travelIogues and in mass media. Compare the prices: they should be neither too high, nor too low. All the ad information should be clear to you: nothing should seem odd.

Call the travel agencies you have picked out, and if you lack some information or advice, don't hesitate to ask questions. Responding to the callers' queries is a part of travel agents' duty. If you are still not disappointed, make an appointment with the travel clerk at the agency office.

Efficient travel clerks will always help you to make a decision about where to go, what to see or where to stay in each area you plan to visit. Travel agents are sure to have the most comprehensive information at hand about the destinations they offer. There are usually lots of travellogues, brochures, folders, tourist's guides and maps available for customers.

You may either choose and obtain a ready-made tour package, or ask for a tailor-made tour package. Most of travel companies are able to arrange tailor-made tours according to their customers' requests.

Purchasing a tour you should pay in cash or by credit card. You will get a voucher for the services you have paid for, air tickets and other travel documents. Travel agents may offer you to pay for your travel insurance. Bear in mind that in high season the prices are up to 25 per cent higher than in low season, party tours are cheaper than individual ones; children get discounts or even travel free.

GOING ON A TRIP

Some may be fond of travelling. For me to travel is to go through a gradual state of nerve wrecking.

Once my wife and I decided to take a holiday trip. So I went to an agency to book a cabin on a ship. While 1 was away my wife was supposed to be packing. To my astonishment it was only half done when I returned as my wife was in doubt whether to take a trunk or just a few suitcases to carry our things in.

It was no use urging her to hurry or to be ready at a certain time because she was not the person to be hurried or ordered about. To try to speed her up was to make her excited and bad- tempered.

With only an hour to spare, the packing to do and the city to cross, I could not but be impatient, so I simply began to throw the things into the suitcases without folding them. The suitcase nearly burst, but 1 was willing to burst a dozen suitcases to catch the train. I knew my wife would have to iron everything again. But I thought it would teach her not to put things off to the last moment. Within 20 minutes or so we were ready to go.

1 immediately found a taxi which seemed almost too good to be true and requested the driver to hurry and get us to the station alive in time. How the taxi-driver managed to get us to the station alive is difficult to understand because he drove at breakneck speed through the heavy traffic of the city. We got to the station, though strange to relate, quite safety to find the train still there and with a few minutes to spare. Some acquaintances were waiting on the platform to see us off, but we hardly had time to say "hello" to them. We were almost the last passengers to arrive. This was no time for me to be genteel. Up went the mountains of luggage; down sank my wife in a corner, and away went the train.

In the compartment we were not the only ones to want to put our luggage on the racks. Our fellow passengers wanted to put their as well, only to find there had been no room left to speak of. It was enough to make anyone angry. When they tried to dump their suitcases in the corridor, the conductor would not have them do it. They tried to convince him that it was nothing to make a fuss about but he replied that corridors were to walk through, not to store luggage in. In the end the conductor calmed down. But the people were just bursting to tell us a thing or two.

When we had to change stations to go aboard the ship, my wife wanted me to carry all the luggage. She didn't want to waste money on porters when she had a strong, muscular husband to do it for her. But 1 had no desire to take the risk of breaking my back and so I went on strike. In the end my wife gave in.

It took the porter three trips to transfer it all and when he had finished he had no breath left to speak of. And the beauty of it was that she had us drag all that luggage only to leave half of it unopened when we did get there.

TRAVELLING BY TRAIN IN BRITAIN (PART I)

British Rail offers high standards of fast, comfortable and easy travel. The InterCity network services operate frequently (hourly or better on many routes).

New InterCity 225 services link London with Yorkshire, the North East and the east coast of Scotland in record time. It is now possible to travel from London King's Cross to Edinburgh in as little as 4 hours 05 minutes.

On most long-distance trains seats can be reserved in advance, but it is rarely necessary except during holiday periods. Reserve when you get to Britain.

Most long-distance trains have both first and standard (economy) class carriages and InterCity trains usually have a restaurant and/or buffet car, serving hot meals, light snacks and drinks. Pullman trains offer luxury travel to the main business centers in Britain, with meal service at your seat available to first class ticket holders. Hundreds of stations also have cafes.

Overnight sleeping car-trains across the country are an ideal way to gain a day and save on hotel charges, with a supplementary charge of $25 per journey, per berth for standard class, and $30 for a single compartment, first class. Reservations should be made well in advance.

If you only want to make a few journeys, single or return (round trip) tickets can be bought in Britain at any station, British Rail Travel Centre or rail appointed travel agents. First class tickets cost about 50 per cent more than standard class. For many journeys, reduced price tickets (with limitations on times and day of travel) are often available at a considerable saving on ordinary fares. If you plan a lot of travelling, a bargain-buy is the BritRail Pass. This pass (which must be purchased from travel agents in your own country — it cannot be bought in Britain) will give you unlimited travel on all scheduled British Rail services throughout England, Scotland and Wales.

If you are touring Europe and travelling between France and Britain, why not try the Channel Tunnel. Travelling by car on "Le Shuttle" between Calais and Folkestone, it takes only 35 minutes; or by train on the high speed "Eurostar" you'll reach London's Waterloo Station in as little as 3 hours, from either Paris or Brussels

TRAVELLING BY TRAIN IN BRITAIN (PART II)

One of the first things a foreigner notices about British railways is the platforms. They are higher than in most parts of the world. The platform is almost on a level with the floor of the carriages. You do not, therefore, have to climb up into a railway carriage in Britain. This makes it a little easier to get in and out of the carriage with your luggage.

The trains that go to and from London are very crowded at the times when people are travelling to work each day. There are cheap tickets after a certain time of the day, usually about 9.30 when everyone has gone to work. These are called cheap day return tickets. It is often nearly 50 % (fifty per cent) cheaper to travel to London after 9.30 than before this time.

Many people in Britain live a long way from their work. They often travel by train from the suburbs into the town centre to work. These people are called commuters. They travel regularly a long distance between home and work. Some people travel more than 200 miles every day and spend up to two hours going to work. On some trains there are study clubs which offer language lessons to commuters on their way to and from work.

On many fast trains to London there is a dining-car in which you can buy lunch, dinner or coffee. On others there is a buffet at which it is possible to buy snacks and drinks. Sometimes a waiter from the dining-car brings round cups of coffee to the passengers.

There are only two classes in Britain — first and second. A first-class ticket costs 50 % more than a second-class ticket. On long journeys there is a ticket inspector, who visits every passenger to see if he has the right ticket and is not travelling in the wrong class.

In England train passengers seldom converse with their fellow-travellers even on a long journey — this is more a national custom than a matter of etiquette.

When the passenger reaches the end of his journey and leaves the train, he has to give his ticket to the ticket collector at the exit before he can leave the station. If he has luggage and wants someone to carry it for him to a waiting car or taxi, he must ask a porter. The porter does not make a charge for this service, but he expects a tip.

TRAVELLING BY AIR

There are four airports in London: Heathrow in the west, Gatwick in the south, Stansted in the north and the city airport in the City of London. Heathrow is the busiest international air- port in the world with more than 1000 planes taking off and landing every day. They carry over a hundred thousand people to and from 85 countries. Heathrow airport opened on the 1st of January 1946. If you are travelling into London, simply catch a FastTrain coach to Heathrow Junction outside your arrival terminal. You should look out for the posters and bus information boards. The FastTrain service uses brand new, purpose-built trains which feature air-conditioning, economically designed seating, generous luggage space, an on board information system and airline-style customer service. Tickets are available at the ticket offices at Paddington railway station, and at other outlets in London, including Rail, speedlink and selected Bureaux de Change. Tickets may also be purchased with sterling or credit/debit cards on board FastTrain. In June 1998, Heathrow Express launched with a dedicated non-stop, high-speed service linking London with the world's leading airport every 15 minutes. In addition to the full range of facilities and services already offered on FastTrain, the new service which provided an exclusive First Class option with wider seats and tables. Since 1998 there is no faster way to travel between central London and Heathrow. Within Britain there is a good network of domestic air routes. Scheduled flights connect major cities and islands. British Air- ways and British Midland operate shuttle flights between Lon- don and Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester and Belfast. Passengers on these flights need check in only ten minutes before departure. A wide range of discount fares is available — travel agents have details. For example, most airlines offer standby fares, usu- ally restricted to "off-peak" flights on weekdays and on flights at weekends.

The "Europe Airpass" is for travel on British Airways, Deutsch BA and Air UK direct flights within Europe (including the Channel Islands). It can be purchased from BA travel offices and their agents, but only in conjunction with scheduled intercontinental flights into Britain and at least seven days prior to arrival. The ticket is not available in Europe, Cyprus, Israel, Russia, Turkey, Tunisia, and Morocco. Individual sectors in Europe may not be travelled more than once in each direction, and reservations must be made when the ticket is issued. Just have your travel agent issue a ticket for your complete UK routing and book the first sector before arrival in Europe.

AIRPORT FORMALITIES

According to the international standards passengers are to arrive at the airport two hours before departure time on international flights and one hour on domestic flights. The reason is that passengers should have enough time to complete all necessary airport formalities.

At the airport passengers should check the time of the flight to make sure that it is not delayed, cancelled, or altered. This information is available on the flight information display or at the inquiry office.

Passengers are to fill in customs declarations in one of international languages or in the language of the country they depart from. They go to the Customs for an examination of their luggage. In some cases the Customs officer may ask you to open your bags and suitcases for inspection. This is one in order to prevent smuggling. After you are through with all Customs formalities the Customs officer puts a stamp on your Customs declaration, or on each piece of luggage, or chalks it off. The particular procedure depends on the country of departure.

Then passengers proceed to the check-in area. There they are to register their tickets, to weigh in and to check-in their luggage.

Most airlines have at least two classes of travel: first or business class and economy or tourist class. Business class is more expensive, while economy class is cheaper. Each passenger above two years of age has a free luggage allowance. As a rule, this limit is 20 kg for economy class passengers and 30 kg for business class passengers. Excess luggage must be paid for, but for some articles that can be carried free of charge, such as baby's food, articles of baby's care, baby's prams, wheelchairs of disabled passengers, and some personal effects.

Each passenger is given a boarding pass with his or her seat number. Passengers are asked if they want to sit by the window, and in the smoking or non-smoking area. A boarding pass is to be shown at the departure gate and to the hostess when boarding the plane.

Finally, passengers proceed to the passport control area. Passport control offices will check your passport and visa and put a stamp on them.

Customs, checking-in and passport formalities are more or less the same in all countries.

TOURING BY COACH IN BRITAIN

Sit back, relax, and watch the British countryside roll by, through big picture windows. There is an incredible variety of tours available, ranging from a one-day trip into London's countryside, to comprehensive touring holidays of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Mini-tours

If you don't want to be tried to a schedule throughout your stay, why not book a mini-tour to complement your independent sightseeing. These last from two to five days (one to four nights) and are run by many of the big coach companies.

Even shorter, are the one-day tours which go from London to popular places of interest such as Stratford-upon-Avon, the Cotswold Hills, Oxford and Windsor. Day tours also depart from other major towns to local historic and scenic attractions.

Full tours

These comprehensive tours are an ideal way of seeing a lot of Britain, visiting stately homes, cathedrals, historic cities and scenic National Parks. Everything is arranged for you — accommodation in good, normally centrally located hotels, breakfasts and dinners, and many admission charges are included in the cost of your tour.

Choose a four-day tour form London, visiting York, Edinburgh, the Lake District and Stratford-upon-Avon, or a spectacular 10-day Grand Tour of Britain, travelling from London in the south, across to Wales, and northwards as far as Grant own- on-Spey at the heart of Scotland's whisky distilling area, taking in historic places in between. Or a seven-day exploration of Scotland, visiting Edinburgh, St. Andrews (the home of golf), the Trossachs and the beautiful coastal, mountain and lakeland scenery of the Highlands, including the Isle of Skye. These are just three examples.

Whatever tour you take, rest assured that British coaches are modern, comfortable and operated by an experienced, qualified driver/courier. Hotels are carefully selected, and very often you will find a private bathroom attached to your room. Ask the British Travel Centre in London, for details on coach operators and tours

TOURING BY CAR IN BRITAIN

With its good road and motorway network, Britain is ideally suited for driving tours. Road numbers and destinations are clearly signposted and even smaller country roads are well surfaced. For quick point-to-point travel the motorway system is best, but to discover the real Britain get off the main roads and explore quiet rural lanes and hidden-away villages. When traveling around, look out for the white-on-brown signposts which indicate nearby tourist attractions.

Renting a car means that you are free to go where you choose and visit places off the beaten track.

All companies offer standard rental with unlimited mileage, large companies offer one-way rental, too. Cars can be rented at most principal railway stations via a British Rail scheme; you can make a reservation just before starting your journey and your car will be waiting on your arrival.

With so many car hire companies, it's worth shopping around to get a good value deal. Use your credit card. I f you want a car with automatic transmission you must specify it at the time of booking.

Conditions of car rental vary: most companies will not rent to those aged under 21 or 25 or aged over 70 or 75 and they usually require a visitor to have held a full driving license for at least 12 months. It is customary for the rental charge to be paid in advance.

1. Чтение и перевод текста “ Airline meals ”  с использованием словаря.

AIRLINE MEALS

Just Pie in the Sky

Did you know that a commercial jet cabin is pressurized to 8,000 feet above sea level? This low air pressure, high-altitude environment causes every part of our bodies to swell up—even our intestines. For this reason alone, if you skip all airline food, you will have an easier time with jetlag — even in first class. Not only that, airline meals are typically high in fat and preservatives — while low in carbohydrates. In my research, I've found that mountain climbers claimed carbos offered them an 'altitude advantage,' i.e., they could function more effectively and think more clearly at higher altitudes when they ate mainly carbos and avoided proteins. Besides, if you really think about it, airline meals are just frozen dinners re-heated in aluminum pans, and flight attendants are not trained chefs like those in gourmet restaurants.

Where's the appeal in that? Suppose we all stopped eating on jets. Not only would jetlag be reduced, but maybe the fares would be, too. The airlines spend a ton of money on airline meals — the majors each supposedly spend in excess of 4 mil-lion dollars a year on food. I can understand spending 4 million dollars on something enjoyable, or something that helps people, but airline meals? Hardly anyone enjoys them, and they make it harder for us to get over jetlag. Yet, many passengers feel that by ordering a 'special meal,' they can get something of a little better quality than the normal airline fare.

Special meals

Here are the special meal options that are available for passengers; not all options are available on every flight.

•        Vegetarian (no meat, fish or eggs, it usually includes

dairy)

•        Hindu (spicy, Indian-style vegetarian)

•        Kosher (the cutlery and plates have never been used before, and the meat is slaughtered, cooked and served according to Kosher law)

•        Muslim (meat is slaughtered in the name of Allah and is of permissible food source, such as beef or lamb)

•        The Prescription Diets: diabetic, low sodium, low cholesterol/fat

Order a 'special meal'

Here's how to order (and get) your special meal request.

1) Request it with your reservation.

2) Reconfirm it with Reservations 48 hours before departure.

3) Ask at check-in, "Is it in the computer?"

4) Ask the galley attendant after boarding (prior to takeoff), "Was it loaded?" At this time, to aid cabin attendants with delivery, hand over a slip of paper with your meal preference/name/seat number.

1. Чтение и перевод текста “ Business trips ”  с использованием словаря.

Business trips.

Business trips are just part of doing business. A company tries to choose only its best people to represent it. Trips can happen in or out of the country.  And there are as many reasons to go on a business as there are places to go: to sign contracts, to discuss terms of delivery, payment or shipment, to have tests, to consult, to improve one’s professional skills, to provide support. Representatives of the companies involved usually make preliminary arrangements in order to meet. Whether a long-term or short-term trip, the itinerary must be carefully planned by the head of a department or another executive.   After the trip, an employee is ordinarily expected to give a full financial accounting of the trip to his boss. Sightseeing, cultural events and just plain relaxing are a regular part of every business trip.  And no businessman would dare forget to buy gifts for relatives, friends and colleagues while on a business trip to an interesting, new location. These trips are important because they contribute to the expansion of a company’s business relationships and help that company succeed in the competitive world market.  

Business today is international in character, and business people often have to travel. On a business trip people might meet colleagues and business partners for the first time. Often, colleagues from different countries experience cultural difficulties, that is, they are surprised by strange, to them, social conventions in a new place. Different cultures do things differently! Management styles also differ from country to country. It’s often useful when doing business in a foreign land, to get some advice from a special agency which consults on questions of international business. These days business trips are very important because face to face meetings are more valuable to profitable business than any other type of strategy.

Travelling

Modern life is impossible without travelling. Thousands of people travel every day either on business or for pleasure. They can travel by air, by rail, by sea or by road.

Of course, travelling by air is the fastest and the most convenient way, but it is the most expensive too. Travelling by train is slower than by plane, but it has its advantages. You can see much more interesting places of the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have very comfortable seats. There are also sleeping cars and dining cars which make even the longest journey enjoyable. Speed, comfort and safety are the main advantages of trains and planes. That is why many people prefer them to all other means.

Travelling by sea is very popular. Large ships and small river boats can visit foreign countries and differentplaces of interest within their own country.

As for me, I prefer travelling by car. I think it's very convenient. You needn't reserve tour tickets. You needn't carry heavy suitcases. You can stop wherever you wish, and spend at any place as much time as you like.

Every year my friend and I go somewhere to the South for holidays. The Black Sea is one of the most wonderful places which attracts holiday-makers all over the world. There are many rest-homes, sanatoriums and tourist camps there. But it is also possible to rent a room or a furnished house for a couple of weeks there. Sometimes, we can place ourselves in a tent on the sea shore enjoying fresh air and the sun all day long.

As a rule, I make new friends there. In the day-time we play volleyball, tennis, swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe In the evening I like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset. I'm fond of mountaineering. So I do a lot of climbing together with my friends. Time passes quickly and soon we have to make our way back. We return home sunburnt and full of impressions.

NEW ZEALAND TRIP REPORT

Kaitlin Duck Sherwood

This all started because Mom wanted to go to Hawaii.

In the guidebook for Hawaii, I found these package bicycle tours listed. I got all excited and got Mom to agree that it sounded like fun, but by the time to commit came around, Mom waffled. I went ahead and made reservations for me, and told her that if she wanted to go, she needed to make her own reservations.

The next day, I went to where I was doing some timing analysis consulting, and mentioned this to Hala, one of the programmers there. "Yeah", I said, "I almost decided to blow Mom off completely and go to New Zealand instead, but I didn't." Hala basically twisted my arm behind my back, shook me in the air a few times, and slammed me into the floor until I agreed to go bike around New Zealand for a month with her.

So what else could I do? I cancelled the Hawaii trip (leaving me with a credit with the bike tour company that ended up turning into my Banff trip) and from Dec 12, 1993 to Jan 12, 1994, Hala and I toured New Zealand.

When you read this, it will sound like it was a bad trip. It was not. Yes, I was physically uncomfortable for large portions of the trip, but it was worth it. And you should not avoid NZ because of the weather: the rains were so heavy that there was flooding in Kaikoura, Milford, and Greymouth. (By contrast, my friend Amy went a month later and reported beautiful weather 80% of the time.) Furthermore, large portions of the discomfort could have been avoided if I had packed better wet-weather gear.

Places of Interest in Great Britain

Britain is rich in its historic places which link the present with the past. The oldest part of London is Lud Hill, where the city is originated. About a mile west of it there is Westminster Palace, where the king lived and the Parliament met, and there is also Westminster Abbey, the coronation church. Liverpool, the "city of ships", is England's second greatest port, ranking after London. The most interesting sight in the Liverpool is the docks. They occupy a river frontage of seven miles. The University of Liverpool, established in-1903, is noted for its School of Tropical Medicine. And in the music world Liverpool is a well-known name, for it's the home town of "The Beatles". Stratford-on-Avon lies 93 miles north-west of London. Shakespeare was born here in 1564, and here he died in 1616. Cambridge and Oxford Universities are famous centres of learning. Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument, presumably built by Druids, members of an order of priests in ancient Britain. Tintagel Castle is King Arthur's reputed birthplace. Canterbury Cathedral is the seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury, head of the Church of England. The British Museum is the largest and richest museum in the world. It was founded in 1753 and contains one of the world's richest collections of antiquities. The Egyptian Galleries contain human and animal mummies. Some parts of Athens' Parthenon are in the Greek section. Madam Tussaud's Museum is an exhibition of hundreds of life-size wax models of famous people of yesterday and today. The collection was started by Madam Tussaud, a French modeller in wax, in the 18th century. Here you can meet Marilyn Monroe, Elton John, Picasso, the Royal Family, the Beatles and many others: writers, movie stars, singers, politicians, sportsmen, etc.

1. Чтение и перевод текста “ Hints for motorists in the USA ”  с использованием словаря.

HINTS FOR MOTORISTS IN THE US

Travelers can find car rental advertisements under Car Rentals in the Yellow Pages. The two largest American car rental companies, Hertz and Avis, have offices all over the US, with counters at most airports and in many international cities. Other national car rental companies you can find at airports, such as Thrifty, National, Budget or Dollar, have offices in other countries too. So you may want to reserve a car through your travel agent in your own country.

In order to rent a car, you have to have a major credit card, such as MasterCard or Visa, or a credit card with the company itself. Without a credit card you may have to pay a very high deposit on the car.

It is also possible to rent used cars rather than new ones. Rent-A-Junker and Ugly Duckling, which have offices in 40 states, are two of the many used car rental companies. Their rates are often lower and they don't always demand a credit card. Sometimes they have special offers that make the total cost of renting a car even lower.

Americans like to do business without leaving their cars. You'll see drive-in banks, drive-in restaurants, drive-in churches and drive-in movies.

When driving in the US, it's a good idea to have an international drivers' license if you don't have a state license. Each of the fifty states has its own traffic laws. (For example, in some states drivers can pump their own gas at "self-serve islands", while in others this is not allowed.) Drivers are expected to know and understand the laws even if they don't live in the state. Get information when you cross the border into a state at a tourist information center.

There is a national speed limit of 55 miles per hour, or about 80 kilometers per hour. Americans usually start and stop slowly and are generally polite about letting cars enter busy streets. They usually stop for people who are walking to let them cross the street. In many states you may turn right after stopping at a corner, even if there is a red light. On some roads there may be a minimum speed.

If you rent a car, ask the company w hat to do in case your car breaks down. Some companies will ask you to call a special number. Others will want you to have the car repaired. They will deduct the cost of the repair from your bill.

"Mileage" can mean two things. It may mean the total number of miles a car has been driven. On the other hand, "gas mileage" is the number of miles a car can travel on one US gallon of gas.

If you want to rent a vehicle you can sleep in, you should ask about RVs recreational vehicles. You don't need a car to pull an RV— you can drive it! Yet it's as big as a house trailer. You can also rent a camping trailer.

1. Чтение и перевод текста “ Germany vacation on the waterside ”  с использованием словаря.

GERMANY VACATION ON THE WATERSIDE

Coasts and Islands

The rugged North Sea, the gentler Baltic, life at an island pace, bracing air, more than 1,000 kilometres of beach and plenty of sun. Add to that, a never-ending choice of sports, spectacular events and nightlife into the early hours. Towns and cities with a traditional maritime feel, culture that stimulates and new trends that excite.

Or peace and quiet at last, time to enjoy a good book, swim or just do nothing. No end of sand for building castles and burying your parents up to their neck. All the ingredients for a fantastic holiday by the sea. And Germany has it all, two times over: once on the North Sea and once on the Baltic. Ready to get your feet wet?

River Scenery

For nature-lovers, who are interested in river scenery, Germany is definitely the place to be! There is a wide variety of dif

Ferment landscapes to experience, such as the Middle Rhine Valley, which celebrated its 200,h birthday in the year 2002, forms part of the UNESCO world heritage. But there are also several other rivers, which are all worth a visit. While the character is always changing, the romantic atmosphere stays the same. Enjoy Germany on a journey, following the flow of the rivers.

Relax Scenery

Germany's lakes are as diverse as the countryside which surrounds them. Some are very well known; others are hidden gems that only reward people who trouble to seek them out. Large, small, with green water or blue, all Germany's lakes have a lot in common: they offer opportunities for sports and fun, together with fresh air and fantastic natural scenery — and the quality of the water is carefully monitored. Just a few clicks will help you discover what Germany's lakes have to offer in terms of beauty, walking, swimming, windsurfing, canoeing or just relaxing.

Waterway Networks

The fantastic network of navigable waterways that runs through Brandenburg — from Berlin to Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania — will give anyone who loves boating a huge adrenaline rush. There are around 4,000 lakes, countless rivers, streams and canals, making this region one of the most remarkable inland waterway systems in Europe. Countryside that is untouched and quite deserted stretches for miles, just waiting to be discovered. There are cultural riches to enjoy here too. Whether you prefer a houseboat or a canoe, a motorboat or a sailing yacht — in many parts license-free — why not experience a whole new way of looking at the world?

Water Travel

Germany's rivers and lakes could almost have been designed with touring in mind. Whether it's a taste of canoeing adventure you're after, a touch of speed on a motor yacht or the tranquility of a house boat — the next few pages are full of ideas and information about Germany's regions, marinas, mooring places, hire regulations, legal requirements, consideration for others on the water and nature conservation.

1. Чтение и перевод текста “ Travelling/Holidays ”  с использованием словаря.

Travelling/Holidays

. Modern life is impossible without travelling. Thousands of  people travel every day either on business or for pleasure.

They can travel by air, by rail, by sea or by road.

Of course, travelling by air is the fastest and the most convenient way, but it is the most expensive too. Travelling by train is slower than by plane, but it has its advantages.

You can see much more interesting places of the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have very comfortable seats. There are also sleeping cars and dining cars which

make even the longest journey enjoyable. Speed, comfort and safety are the main advantages of trains and planes. That is why many people prefer them to all other means.

Travelling by sea is very popular. Large ships and small river boats can visit foreign countries and different places of interest within their own country.

As for me, I prefer travelling by car. I think it's very convenient. You needn't reserve tour tickets. You needn't carry heavy suitcases. You can stop wherever you wish, and spend at any place as much time as you like.

Every year my friend and I go somewhere to the South for holidays. The Black Sea is one of the most wonderful places which attracts holiday-makers all over the world. There are many rest-homes, sanatoriums and tourist camps there. But it is also possible to rent a room or a furnished house for a couple of weeks there. Sometimes, we can place ourselves in a tent on the sea shore enjoying fresh air and the sun all day long.

As a rule, I make new friends there. In the day-time we play volleyball, tennis, swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. In the evening I like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset.

I'm fond of mountaineering. So I do a lot of climbing together with my friends. Time passes quickly and soon we have to make our way back. We return home sunburnt and full of impressions
