Easter is one of the most important Christian holidays. The exact date of the holiday changes from year to year but it usually falls on April. Preparation for Easter starts seven weeks before the actual holiday. It’s called the advent of Lent. Many Christian people don’t eat meat and animal products during this period. The week before Easter is quite busy because people start thoroughly preparing for the holiday. The traditions of Easter celebration vary from country to country. For example, in our country the Sunday before Easter is called a Willow Sunday. On this day people bring home some willow branches which have been blessed in church. Thursday before Easter is called Clean Thursday. Traditionally people should bathe before sunrise on this day. Houses and flats should be cleaned too. There is also a Good Friday. It’s the day when women bake Easter bread called “paska” or “paskha”. On Saturday children dye Easter eggs, which are called “pysankas”. In the evening people go to church for the Easter mass, which lasts all night. Sunday is the actual day of Easter. People visit each other on this day and exchange colourful “pysankas”. In English-speaking countries the official symbol of this holiday is Easter bunny. Children are especially fond of this day because they get lots of chocolate and fluffy bunnies as a present.
The text begins with description of a very famous store Harrods in London. In the beginning it was just a small grocer's shop that was opened in 1849 and run by Charles Henry Harrod. Even after a fire, two World Wars, two bombings Harrods survived and moved abroad, then opened a branch in Japan and some in other countries. Today a lot of people visit Harrods and remain speechless because of it's sizes: the store got 300 departments and employs over 4000 stuff. Harrods sells almost everything from clothes to caviar. There you can find bars, restaurants, bank, travel agency and beauty salon. January and July are very busy months for Harrods because they are sale times. The store's motto is "All things, for all people, everywhere" and that's why it's a fascinating place to visit.
