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

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 singledecker.
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. НУЖЕН ПЕРЕВОД ДАМ МНОГО БАЛЛОВ
