HOLIDAYS IN GREAT BRITAIN

There are fewer public holidays in Great Britain than in other European countries. They are: Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, May Day, Spring Bank Holiday and Summer Bank Holiday. Public holidays in Britain are called bank holidays, because the banks as well as most of the offices and shops are closed.

The most popular holiday is Christmas. Every year the people of Norway give the city of London a present. It’s a big Christmas tree and it stands in Trafalgar Square. Central streets are beautifully decorated.

Before Christmas, groups of singers go from house to house. They collect money for charity and sing carols, traditional Christmas songs. Many churches hold a carol service on the Sunday before Christmas.

The fun starts the night before, on the 24th of December. Traditionally this is the day when people decorate their trees. Children hang stockings at the end of their beds, hoping that Father Christmas will come down the chimney during the night and fill them with toys and sweets.

Christmas is a family holiday. Relatives usually meet for the big Christmas dinner of turkey and Christmas pudding. And everyone gives and receives presents. The 26th of December, Boxing Day, is an extra holiday after Christmas Day. This is the time to visit friends and relatives or perhaps sit at home and watch football.

New Year's Day is less popular in Britain than Christmas. But in Scotland, Hogmanay is the biggest festival of the year.

Besides public holidays there are some special festivals in Great Britain. One of them takes place on the 5th of November. On that day, in 1605, Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament and kill King James I. He didn't succeed. The King's men found the bomb, took Guy Fawkes to the Tower and cut off his head.

Since that day the British celebrate the 5th of November. They burn a dummy, made of straw and old clothes, on a bonfire and let off fireworks. This dummy is called a " guy" (like Guy Fawkes) and children can often be seen in the streets before the 5th of November saying, " Penny for the guy." If they collect enough money they can buy some fireworks.

There are also smaller, local festivals in Britain.

LESSON ELEVEN (11)
ELEVENTH ( 11TH) LESSON

Football

PART 1

 

Tim This afternoon I'm taking my cousin and my uncle to a football match. Simon's never seen a professional game. Uncle Guy hasn't seen one for years. Today's match is between Arsenal and Liverpool. Both of these teams are very good this season. I haven't seen Liverpool this season. They're often one of the best teams in the first division. I often go to football matches.

I usually go to Highbury to see Arsenal. Their games are always good. I sometimes go to see Chelsea. Some of their games are good, others are bad. Rugby's another exciting sport, but I don't usually go to rugby games. The best sport's football.

The teams

Tim Look, Simon. The teams are coming onto the field. Have you ever seen Arsenal?
Simon No, I haven't.
Tim What about Jane? Has she ever seen a football match?
Simon No, she's never seen one. She doesn't like football. Have your parents ever seen a professional game?
Tim No, they haven’t seen any professional games.
Simon Which ones are Arsenal?
Tim They're in red and white.

Simon Who's kicking off?

Tim Liverpool.

Simon Are both teams good this season?

Tim Yes.

Simon Which one's better?

Tim Oh yes. They sometimes lose but they usually win. They don't often have a bad day.
Simon Which team do you support?

Tim I've always supported Arsenal.

Simon Me too. Dad's never liked Arsenal.

A goal

Tim Liverpool haven't scored yet... what's wrong?
Mr. Hunt I'm not worried yet. They've only been on the field for half an hour. This is only the first half.

Tim Look, there's Moore. He's running up the wing. He's good.

Mr. Hunt No, he isn't; he's bad. He's worse than the other winger.

Tim He's already scored one goal for Arsenal. Oh look! He's near the penalty area.
Anil there's Blaire. He's Liverpool's worst defender. He's tackling Moore.
Mr. Hunt That's not Blaire; that's Blake. He's Liverpool's best player.
Tim Collins is better than Blake. Look! Moore's in the penalty area now. He usually scores... Yes! Look at that... a goal!
Mr. Hunt What's the score now?

Tim Arsenal two: Liverpool nil. What a game!

Hot dogs

Simon Dad, may I buy a hot dog?

Mr. Hunt Yes, you may. Buy Tim one and buy me one, too.
Simon May I have some money?
Mr. limit Here's fifty pence (50p).

Simon Thanks. Do you want mustard on your hot dog?

Mr. Hunt Yes, please, I do.

Tim No, thank you, I don't.

Mr. Hunt One with mustard, the other without mustard.

Simon May I buy an orange squash, too?

Mr. Hunt Yes... what kind do you like, Tim?

Tim I don't want any squash, thanks... I've brought us beers, Uncle Guy.

Simon Tim, which man sells soft drinks?

Tim I don't know. Some sell soft drinks; others sell hot dogs.
Simon May I buy an ice-cream, too?
Mr. Hunt Of course. Buy me one, too.
Tim Me too, please.
Simon May I have another ten pence, Dad?
Mr. Hunt Here you are.

 

The end of the game

Simon Who's winning now?

Tim Arsenal are... three: nil. They've scored another goal.
Simon Is this the last fifteen minutes?

Tim Yes, it is.

Simon Good. Liverpool can't score four goals in a quarter of an hour.
Mr. Hunt Yes, they can. Look! There's a man running up the left wing. Now He's got the ball.

Simon Yes, that's Hedge. He plays for Liverpool. He always scores.
Mr. Hunt Yes, you're right. Pass it. Hedge. No, he's trying for a goal. Shoot! Shoot! A goal!
Simon No, it isn't.
Mr. Hunt Yes, it is. What a goal!
Simon And that's the end of the game. Arsenal have won again—three: one.
Mr. Hunt Yes, and Liverpool have lost. Oh well,.. they sometimes win... other times they lose. That's football!
