I am going to tell you about my school since you are my best friend.
I returned to school again. I didn't like my first day at school. It was cold and rather boring. And the worst part of it is that my classes begin at eight o'clock. I usually come a little earlier so I have an opportunity to talk a little to my friends. We discuss the last school and home news. Soon the bell rings, and we hurry to a class. Usually I have 7 lessons a day, sometimes less. Today they ended up unusually early. During the most lessons we were only introduced to the new topics we are going to learn this year..
Два больших острова и множество маленьких расположены на северо-западе Европы. Они известны как Британские острова. Самый большой остров называют Великобританией. Другой большой остров называется Ирландия. На Британских островах расположены два государства: Ирландия и Соединенное Королевство Великобритании и Северной Ирландии. Великобритания, или Британия, - это название самого большого острова, который является восьмым по величине островом в мире. Соединенное Королевство Великобритании и Северной Ирландии — политическое название страны, в которую входят Англия, Шотландия, Уэльс и Северная Ирландия (или её ещё называют Великобритания). Люди часто называют Соединенное Королевство Великобританией или Британией, что неверно. Столицей Великобритании является Лондон. Население Великобритании составляет около 60 миллионов человек. Следует помнить, что в Великобритании живут не только англичане. Шотландцы, валлийцы и ирландцы — тоже британцы. Британцами также являются люди других этнических групп, родители которых приехали в Великобританию в 1850-х и 1860-х годах из Индии, Пакистана, Гонконга и других мест. Большинство британцев говорят по-английски, но такие языки, как валлийский, гэльский и другие, тоже используются людьми и преподаются в школах Соединенного Королевства.
