British theatres (Британские театры)




 

Until recently the history of the English theatre has been build around actors rather then companies. It has been hard to find any London theatre that even had a consistent policy. There are no permanent staff in British theatres. Apply is rehearsed for a few weeks by a company of actors working together mostly for the first time and it is allowed to run as long as it draws the odious and pays it's way.

Another peculiarity of the theatres in Great Britain is an follows: there are two kinds of seats, which can be booked an advanced (bookable), and unbookable once have no numbers and the spectators occupy them on the principal: first come - first served. And ancient times plays were acted inside churches and later on the market places.

The first theatre in England "The Blackfries" build in 1576, and "The Globe" build in 1599, which is closely connected with William Shakespeare. Speaking about our times we should first of all mention "The English National theatre", "The Royal Shakespeare company" and "Covent Garden".

"Covent Garden" used to be a fashionable promenade - it was, before then, a convent garden - but when it became overrun with flower-sellers, orange-vendors and vegetable width=100%-growers, the people moved to more exclusive surroundings farther west, such as "St. Jame's Square".

The first "Covent Garden theatre" was build in 1732. It was burnt down in 1808 and rebuild exactly a year after. It opened in September 1809, with hakespeare's "Macbeth". Since the middle of the last century "Covent Garden" became exclusively devoted to opera.

Now "Covent Garden" in busier than ever, it is one of the few well-known opera houses open for 11 months of the year and it employs over 600 people both of the Opera company and the Royal Ballet.

 

 

Customs and traditions of English speaking countries (Обычаи и традиции англоязычных стран)

 

Every country and every nation has it's own traditions and customs. It's very important to know traditions and customs of different people. It will help you to know more about the history and life of different nations and countries. One cannot speak about England without speaking about it's traditions and customs.They are very important in the life of English people.Englishman are proud of their traditions and carefully keep them up. There are six public holidays a year in G.B. Christmas day is one of their favorite holidays.It's celebrated on the 25-th of December. There are some traditions connected with it. One of them is to give presents to each other. It is not only children and members of family. It's a tradition to give Christmas presents to the people you work with. Another tradition is to send Christmas cards. All these cards are brightly and colored. Most of big cities of G.B., especially London, are decorated with colored lights and Christmas trees. On Trafalgar Square, in the center of London stands a big Christmas tree. It is a gift from the people of Oslo. It is over 50 feet high. Many families celebrate Christmas day in the open air near the Christmas tree in order to catch the spirit of Christmas. Children find Christmas presents in their stockings. The traditional English dinner on Christmas is turkey and pudding. Other great holidays are: Father’s day, Mother’s day, Halloween and other.

 

 

Travelling

 

One can travel by air, by rail, by sea or by road. Those, who wish to travel, either for pleasure or on business, have at their disposal various means of transport, for instance, bicycles, motorcycles, motor-cars, boats, ships, helicopters and others. IF you need to get any place of the world in a short time, you should choose plane. Travelling by air is the fastest and the most convenient way of travelling, but it is the most expensive one. Most people prefer travelling by train, as it is cheaper and more convenient. Travelling by train is slower than by plain, but i has its advantages. You can see much more interesting places of the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have very comfortable seats. There are also sleeping cars and dining cars, which make even the longest journey enjoyable. Everyone knows the speed of sea liners is much slower than that of plains, but on board of ship there are all facilities to enjoy your trip: tennis and badminton grounds, swimming pools, cinema and dancing hall. I think that it is not an easy task to make the right choice of a job. I have known for a long time that leaving school is the beginning of my independent life, the beginning of a far more serious examination of my abilities and character.

Можно поехать воздушным путем, по железной дороге, морским путем или дорогой. Те, кто желает путешествовать, или для удовольствия или по делу, имеют в их распоряжении различные средства транспорта, например, велосипеды, мотоциклы, автомобили, лодки, суда, вертолеты и другие. ЕСЛИ Вы должны получить какое-нибудь место мира в скором времени, Вы должны выбрать самолет. Путешествие воздушным путем является самым быстрым и самый удобный способ поехать, но это - самый дорогой. Большинство людей предпочитает путешествовать поездом, поскольку это более дешево и более удобно. Путешествие поездом медленнее чем равниной, но я имею ее преимущества. Вы можете видеть намного более интересные места страны, по которой Вы путешествуете через. Современные поезда имеют очень удобные места. Есть также спальные вагоны и вагоны - рестораны, которые совершают даже самую длинную поездку приятной. Каждый знает, что скорость морских лайнеров намного медленнее чем та из равнин, но на правлении судна есть все средства обслуживания обладать вашей поездкой: теннис и основания бадминтона, плавательные бассейны, кино и танцующий зал. Я думаю, что это не легкая задача сделать правильный выбор из работы. Я знал в течение долгого времени, что отъезд школы - начало моей независимой жизни, начало намного более серьезной экспертизы моих способностей и характера.

 

 

Travelling

Almost all people are fond of travelling. It is very interesting to see new places, another towns and countries. People may travel either for pleasure or on business. The-re are various methods of travelling. For me there is nothing like travel by air; it is more comfortable, more convenient and, of course, far quicker than any other method. There is none of the dust and dirt of a railway or car journey, none of the trouble of changing from train to steamer and then to another train.

With a train you have speed, comfort and pleasure combined. From the comfortable seat of a railway carriage you have a splendid view of the whole country-side. If you are hungry, you can have a meal in the dining-car; and if a journey is a long one you can have a wonderful bed in a sleeper.

Travelling by ship is also very popular now. It is very pleasant to feel the deck of the ship under the feet, to see the rise and fall of the waves, to feel the fresh sea wind blowing in the face and hear the cry of the seagulls.

Many people like to travel by car. It is interesting too, because you can see many filings in a short time, you can stop when and where you like, you do not have to buy tickets or carry your suitcases.

A very popular method of travelling is hiking. It is travelling on foot. Walking tours are very interesting. Hitch-hiking is a very popular method of travelling among young people. But it is not so popular in our country as abroad.

Почти все люди любят путешествие. Очень интересно видеть новые места, другой города и страны. Люди могут путешествовать или для удовольствия или по делу. Есть различные методы путешествия. Для меня нет ничего как путешествие воздушным путем; это более удобно, более удобно и, конечно, намного более быстро чем любой другой метод. Нет ни одной из пыли и грязи железной дороги или автомобильной поездки, ни одна из неприятности измениться от поезда до парохода и затем на другой поезд.

С поездом Вы имеете скорость, комфорт и объединенное удовольствие. От удобного места железнодорожного вагона Вы имеете роскошное представление целой сельской местности. Если Вы хотите есть, Вы можете иметь пищу в вагон-ресторане; и если поездка - длинный, Вы можете иметь замечательную кровать в спящем.

Путешествие судном также очень популярно теперь. Очень приятно чувствовать палубу судна под ногами, видеть повышение и падение волн, чувствовать, что новый морской ветер дует в лице и слышит крик чаек.

Много людей любят путешествовать на машине. Это интересно также, потому что Вы можете видеть много регистрации в скором времени, Вы можете остановиться, когда и где Вы любите, Вы не должны купить билеты или нести ваши чемоданы.

Очень популярный метод путешествия путешествует пешком. Это едет пешком. Гуляющие туры очень интересны. Передвижение автостопом - очень популярный метод путешествия среди молодых людей. Но это не столь популярно в нашей стране как за границей.

 

Travelling

 

Modern life is impossible without travelling. People can travel by rail, by sea, by road, by air.

As for me I prefer travelling by car. Every year my parents and I go somewhere to the South for holidays.

The Black Sea is one of the most wonderful places, which attracts holidaymakers all over the world. We often go on excursions. It's interesting for me to go sightseeing and to see ancient monuments and many places of historical interest. As a rule I make new friends there. I never feel bored when I travel, because I always have good companions. Time passes quickly and soon we have to make our way back. We return home sunburnt and full of impressions. I think travelling and sightseeing help me get to know the world around us.

Modern life is impossible without travelling. Thousands of people travel every day either on bussines or for pleasure. They can travel by air, by rail, by see or by road.

Travelling by air is the fastest and the most convinient way, but it is the most expensive too. To my mind travelling by train is more interesting. You can see interesting places of the country you are travellin throught. Modern trains have very comfortable seats. There are also sleeping carriages and a dining- carrige which make even the longest journey enjoyable.

Travelling by sea is very popular. On board of ship you can enjoy your trip. There are tennis and badminton grounds, a swimming-pool, a sinema and a dancing hall there. Some people prefer travelling by car. If you heve your own car you may go to the Black Sea, where there are a lot of rest-houses, sanatoriums and tourist camps. In the daytime you can have a nice opportunity to play voleyball, swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. In the evening you like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset.

As for me I'm a hiker. I like to go on a hike to the mountins or to the forest. You go agree with me that it is pleasant to gather mushrooms and berries in the forest, swim in the river, make a fire and prepare meals on it. On my week-end I take a tent, a rucksack and go to railway station take the train. In an hour I find myself out of noisy city. The air is fresh, birds sing their merry songs. To make my long story short I'd like to say that travelling is one of my hobbies. Travelling helps me to see to coutry-side better, to know about customs and traditions of the Republic, to meet people and make friends with them.

Travelling by sea is popular mostly for pleasure trips. On board large ships and small river boats people can visit foreign countries and different places of interest within their own country. It is very pleasant to see the rise and fall of the waves, to feel the fresh sea wind blowing and hear the cry of the seagulls. Trips on the Volga, the Dnieper, the Yenisei, the Black Sea are very popular today.

Many people like to travel by car. It is interesting too, because you can stop when and where you like, you do not have to buy tickets or carry your suitcases.

The Black Sea is one of the most wonderful places which attracts holiday-makers all over the world. There are many rest-homes, sanatoriums and tourist camps there. But it is also possible to rent a room or a furnished house for a couple of weeks there. Sometimes we place ourselves in a tent on the sea shore enjoying fresh air and the sun all day long. As a rule I make new friends there. In the daytime we play volleyball, tennis, swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. In the evening I like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset.

 

 

Travelling

 

People began to travel ages ago. The very first travellers were explorers who went on trips to find wealth, fame or something else. Their journeys were very dangerous but still people keep on going to the unknown lands.

Nowadays there are a lot of companies, which can organize your tour, or voyage wherever you like. They will take care about your tickets and make all the reservations needed. If you don't speak the language of the country you'll be given interpreters.

With modern services you can go around the world you can choose the means of transport you like: plain, train, ship, bicycle or you can travel hiking.

As for me I like travelling by car. It is a very convement type because you can stop wherever and whenever you like, have a better look at the places of interest and nature. Besides you need't reserve tour tickets, carry heavy suitcase.

Every year my parents and I go to the South for holidays. The Black Sea is one of the most wonderful places which attracts holiday-makers all over the world. There are many rest-homes, sanatoriums and tourist camps there. But it is also possible to rent a room or a furnished house for a couple of weeks there. As a rule I make new friends there. In the day-time we play volleyball, tennis, swim in the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. In the evening I like to sit on the beach watching the sea and enjoying the sunset.

But the greatest dream of my life is to go to the States and see most of its cities and sights. And of course study there at the prestigious university for some time.
