Sports is an important part of cultural tradition in Great Britain.
There are two especially well known national sports which are liked by everybody - tennis and football.
World Football Championship which takes place every four-year is an important event.
This event is not only a possibility to watch top class football, it is also an opportunity to see some of the most well known players of the world.
Wimbledon, which world tennis competition takes place every June is the event which is paid much attention. It is not only a sporting event – it is a culture event.
It is not uncommon for tennis fans to take a small holiday so that they can watch the matches undisturbed. While some tennis lovers watch the games in comfort in their living-rooms, others are happy to brave the unpredictable June weather to watch the games live.
There are some discussions why the professional sportsmen are extremely highly paid, but many fans think that the big pleasure which they receive of watching a true professional action is worth any price.
Yesterday our class went to the museum of history. The museum building is large, old and beautiful. In the lobby of the museum was a tree, because it was winter break, has just entered a new year.
We went up the stairs into the hall, about the life of ancient people. On the walls were located paintings depicting hunting scenes of ancient man on mammoths, bears and bulls. And the company has also demonstrated spears, arrows, tools used by people in the Stone Age. All this is very interesting, because people had to fight for its existence, hiding from the cold and predators in caves, learn how to use fire. The farther we went through the rooms, the development is a human society. Now and XVI centuries. During this period, people are aware of the structure of the universe and the solar system. Architects have learned to build stone houses, in Russia there are pre red temples, painted by Theophanes the Greek and Andrei Rublev, begin in monasteries written record.
Learned a lot of new dates and facts, and all the rooms do not end, they remain the same as passed. No, all at once to understand and remember not. We will still come here, to learn more and more facts of history. Is a start, we do not say goodbye to you, the history museum. We say, "Bye, see you soon bye!"
Вчера наш класс ездил в музей истории. Здание музея большое, старинное и красивое. В вестибюле музея стояла елка, потому что были зимние каникулы, только что наступил Новый год.
По лестнице мы поднялись в зал, рассказывающий о жизни древних людей. По стенам располагались картины, изображающие сцены охоты древнего человека на мамонтов, медведей, буйволов. А на стендах демонстрировались копья, стрелы, орудия труда, которыми пользовались люди в каменном веке. Все это очень интересно, ведь людям пришлось бороться за свое существование, прятаться от холода и хищников в пещерах, учиться пользоваться огнем. Чем дальше мы продвигались по залам, тем развитее становилось человеческое общество. Вот уже и XVI век. В этот период люди знают строение Вселенной и Солнечной системы. Зодчие научились строить каменные строения, на Руси появляются пре красные храмы, расписанные Феофаном Греком и Андреем Рублевым, начинают в монастырях писаться летописи.
Очень много узнаешь новых дат и фактов, а залы все не кончаются, их осталось столько же, сколько Нет, все сразу понять и запомнить нельзя. Мы еще будем приходить сюда, узнавать все новые и новые факты истории. Это самое начало, мы не прощаемся с тобой, музей истории. Мы говорим: “До свидания, до скорого свидания!”
