A      Hundred of years ago there were stories about a large continent in the Southern Hemisphere. People called it "terra australis incognita", or "the unknown southern land". But no one could say what it was like and whether it was inhabited until the Dutch discovered it in 1606. Willem Jansz was the first European known to sight the continent.

В       The Welsh are known in Great Britain for their singing. They like singing together. Choral singing is a national art and every village has more than one choir. The Welsh sing everywhere - in competitions, on holidays, in a bus. People like to sing loudly. There are singing competitions in a festival of Welsh culture.

С       The East End is especially famous as the centre of clothing industry in London. For centuries people from abroad have come to find work there. Traditionally someone born in the East End is known as a cockney although this name is now given to anyone who speaks like a Londoner. Typically they change certain vowel sounds and have a few problems with 'th' and use 'f' instead.

D       John Trumbull (1756 - 1843) was the first American artist to produce history paintings dealing with contemporary American events. His work "The Declaration of Independence" is a painting of particular historical significance. Of the forty-eight figures crowded into the canvas, thirty-six were painted from life. Standing at the table before John Hancock are John Adams, Roger Sherman, Robert R. Livingston, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin.

E       There are two main kinds of buses in London: the red double-decker and the single-decker. The single-decker buses travel between the main stations and stop at fewer stops than the double-deckers. The double-deckers have seats for 65 people. Only five people are allowed to stand when the seats are full. So the conductor may stop you getting on the bus if there are five passengers already standing.

            Harold Scott sold cheap shoes. He had a small lorry, and he bought the shoes from the factory and took them from one house to another and tried to sell them to people.

            He sold a lot of his shoes in small villages, because there were not many shops there, and people did not want to go to the town and buy their shoes there.

            One day Harold drove along the street of a village and stopped in front of one of the houses. There was a small boy beside the door. Harold opened the window of his lorry and called the boy, “Hello. Is your mother at home?”

After a minute, Harold knocked at the door again and waited for two minutes, but again the door did not open.
