Масленица отмечается во многих странах мира: Великобритании, США, Ирландии, Австралии, Бразилии, Греции, Швеции, Германии, Франции, Исландии. В отличие от России, этот праздник в Европе и Америке длится всего один день. Он проходит во вторник, называемый: Блинный вторник. Есть много традиций празднования этого дня. В Англии блинные гонки проводятся по всей стране. Мужчины и женщины, принимающие в них участие должны надеть фартук и шляпу или шарф. Каждый из них имеет сковороду с горячим блином. Они должны бросить его три раза во время гонки, длиной 375 метров. В конце гонки блины должны выглядеть такими же круглыми и красивыми, как в начале гонки! Это не так просто!
The London TubeHave you ever wondered what strange things lurk within the London Underground (or "Tube") system? The first things people usually think of are the mice that you can occasionally see running along the tracks. (run) In tact, mice arent the only strange things in the Underground system. Passengers leave behind thousands of objects. Items that were once theirs now reside in London Transport's lost property office. (they) The collection is not open to the public, but a wedding dress, sets of false teeth, artificial limbs and a metre -high Mickey Mouse statue are just some of things people could see if they visited the office. Objects that are left in the office for more than three months are donated to charity or sold at auction. (leave)
Found money Shelley was reading an article about some money a builder had found in an old house. He'd gone to the police with $64,000. She asked her friend Paul what he would do if he found a large amount of money. (find) "Oh, the same thing he did", Paul didn't hesitate to respond. "It's not right to keep that kind of money. It's not just $20, you know." (not hesitate) Shelley thought about it for several moments. She couldn't help wondering how the police would know whose money it was. (who) "Apparently", she said, reading the article further, "if nobody claims the money after a certain period of time, the police RETURNS???/слово не даноб но в любом случае оно должно быть в простом настоящем(present simple) it back to the builder". She wondered whether the builder would be lucky on this occasion.
