FROM THE HISTORY OF ENGLAND
1 Many hundred years ago (about the 4th century before our era) the country we now call
England was known as Britain, and the people who lived there were the Britons. They belonged
to the Celtic race; the language they spoke was Celtic. Their culture, that is to say their way of
thinking
and
their
understanding
of
nature,
was
very
primitive.
2 In the first century before our era Britain was conquered by the powerful state of Rome. The
Romans lived on the peninsula, which is now called Italy and their language was Latin. They
were very clever at making hard roads, building bridges and many-storied houses. The Romans
thought a great deal of fighting and they usually managed to win most of the battles they fought.
The Romans had heard very much about Britain from travelers and among other things they were
greatly interested to learn what valuable metals could be found in Britain.
3 Finally they decided to occupy the island. The Romans sailed across the sea in galleys and
the general who commanded them was Julius Caesar.Caesar wrote many interesting accounts of
Britain. His soldiers were clever enough, but it was not so easy to conquer the Britons, and the
Romans had to encamp troops all over the country.
4 It is from these camps that the English cities later arose. Many things the Romans taught
the Britons were given Latin names. They made the Britons build roads and bridges. But the Romans and the natives of Britain did not become one nation (never mixed one with the other); all
that
the Romans
wanted
was
to make
the Britons
work
for
them.

Most of people go to school in their childhood, it is our basic education. But still there are some people who didn’t go to school, but got their education at home. This is called distant learning

Distant education also has another meaning. When we go to university or want to start some advanced courses there is an option to have distant learning. The advantage of such learning is that you can study in another country without leaving your own one. It gives you more freedom in your schedule – you don’t have to attend lessons, so one can combine studying and working. Distant learning gives you a chance to have a certificate in any field that you like and choose education you

Distant learning is when a child doesn’t go to school, but studies at home on his own or with the help of a tutor. It may be because of his health, or because his family travels a lot or for some other reasons. There are of course advantages of such learning – you can get concentrated on what you read and study, you have as much time as you need to understand the material. But on the other hand school is not only about studying, it’s about communication with other people, it’s finding your place in the society, getting friends, learning how to behave in public and so on. So I think that if it is possible a child should go to school.
