A. Thanks to television and films, Scotland is often seen by the rest of the world as a magical country, a land of misty mountains and the home of a lake creature called Nessie. This is the image most people have in mind. The truth, however, is completely different from the way the world thinks of Scotland. You may be surprised to find out that most Scots live in the lowlands and don’t believe in Nessie.
B. Scottish heather, a small bush with flowers, is the floral symbol of the country. The colour of the flowers usually varies from purple to lilac, but they can also be white. In the past, the Scots believed that they would never be captured by enemies and would win victories if they wore white heather. Today, when getting married, girls add white heather to bouquets to bring fortune to their family.
C. Heather has grown in Scotland as far back as its history goes. This has turned it into a kind of household good. Heather honey is rich in minerals, and was traditionally used in medicinal drinks. Thousands of years ago, dried heather was used to make perfumes, and the tough stems were used to make ropes. On many of the northern Scottish islands, heather played a major role in the construction of houses.
D. Scotland is an excellent destination for open-air activities all year round. Its lakes and coastline are ideal for boating and rowing and have some of the best sea-kayaking in the world. The rivers are perfect for fishing and the mountains are wonderful for hill climbing and skiing. Scotland is also good for walkers. You can enjoy easy family walks or more difficult mountain hikes.
E. The Highland Games in Scotland date from long before Scotland’s written history. The various athletics allowed men to demonstrate their physical power and the skills needed for battle and survival. The Games today still include the athletic competitions in their original form together with dancing contests. All the competitors wear kilts. Traditional bagpipe music accompanies all the events.
F. Scotland is a country that is part of the United Kingdom, occupying the northern third of the island of Great Britain. Edinburgh, the country's capital and second largest city, is one of Europe's financial centres. The population of the country is a little over 5 million people. The currency is the pound sterling although the Bank of Scotland issues its own notes and coins.
No doubt we using the earth’s natural resources faster than ever. The use of natural resources adversely the ecology of the earth and our lives. Imagine how many trees die for the sake of what you would have had notebooks… Just think how many animals we have left without a home, and for what? We do not appreciate nature, and yet it is not infinite. At this rate we soon will destroy the whole of nature, everything that surrounds us. We must learn to use natural resources wisely, and recever them. Look around, look at the natural beauty that is dying because of us. And how much is pumped out of the natural resources of the earth for profit…
Only we can stop it! Imagine that you child see? And see if he do something?
Образование за рубежом имеет много преимуществ, но также в свою очередь и ряд недостатков.
Из основных преимуществ зарубежного образования нужно отметить следующие. Во-первых, это хорошая возможность овладеть иностранным языком посредством постоянного общения, пребывания в языковой среде. Во-вторых, это хорошая перспектива дальнейшего трудоустройства за границей и более благосклонное отношение отечественного работодателя. И, в-третьих, это ознакомление с культурой и традициями зарубежных народов в процессе получения образования.
Главными недостатками обучения за рубежом являются многочисленные трудности, с которыми будет сталкиваться студент. Первая и одна из самых главных трудностей – это сложность общения на иностранном языке при низком уровне его знания. Вторая неизбежная трудность – это психологический стресс и социальный дискомфорт в первое время обучения за границей. И третья основная трудность – это банальная нехватка общения, поскольку в первое время обучения за границей многие чувствуют себя одинокими. Это относительно недолгое чувство для некоторых, для других же это может продлиться весь период обучения.
