The New Londoners

1. I was born in India and then lived in many different parts of England. I moved to London fourteen years ago and I feel more at home in London than in any other place. What I like about London is that it is a multicultural place. The fact that I am from another country doesn’t mean (не означает) that I have to forget my own culture. Ethnic (национальный) festivals , markets, centers are as much part of London as Big Ben and the Tower of London.

2. I came to London from Australia to study. London is great! It got everything: nice shopping centers, convenient eating-places, beautiful and elegant architecture. But above all, I like the people there, who are ready to help.

3. I moved to London from Canada ten years ago because I got a job at one of the London universities. I love this city because I enjoyed the theatre, cinema, concerts, restaurants with food all over the world. It’s a pity that people move in and out of the city a lot. You make new friends all the time, but also “lose” friends all the time as well.

4. I’m a businessman from Poland. My favourite thing about London is that museums (not all but most of them) are free, so you can see works of art if you like and you don’t have to pay for expensive tickets.

5. I am Greek and I’m a travel agent. My office is far from the place where I live, so what I most dislike about London is that underground doesn’t operate during the night. This means that when I am coming back late from work, I have to take a bus, so it takes a lot of time to get home.

Which of these “ new Londoners”…?

A. likes exotic food

B. is a student.

C. dislikes the city transport

D. feels in England at home

E. enjoys free museums

F. doesn’t say anything about his job

Grandfather

How old is Grandfather? I don’t know. He never talks about his1. He’s about seventy, maybe seventy-five. Years ago he was a 2 man. He was a farmer, a soldier and a sportsman. His village was 3 of him.

Now he’s getting old. He doesn’t see without his 4, and he can’t hear well. His hair is thin and almost 5 . But he has a strong face.

Grandfather loves his store. He needs his store. It’s his only 6 . He has friends, but they are all 7. Oh, yes, he has us, the family, and I guess he loves us, but he doesn’t show it.

He lives in the past. All of his friends are living in the 8. At least the past can’t change. It’s always there, and you can close your 9 and see it. Grandma was a kind lovely 10, and grandfather’s world is not the same without her.
