Project "Travelling in Russia " (слайд 2)

P1. There are many ways of travelling in our country. First of all, if you want to walk, to see the beautiful countryside, to meet people, you may have long walks in the country. Such walks are called hikes. Take your rucksacks, don't think about tickets, don't hurry and walk a lot. During such hikes you see a lot of interesting places, somet­imes you meet interesting people.

You may travel by car. It is interesting too, because you can see many things in a short time. When you go by car, you don't take tickets too, you put all the things you need in a car.

It's comfortable to travel by train and by plane. When you travel by plane, you don't spend a lot of time going from one place to another.

,'If you want to go to the seaside, you may trav­el by ship.

It is warm, you can swim and enjoy watching white ships.

I think that travelling is a very useful thing and you will enjoy all kinds of travelling very much.

Russia is one of the biggest countries in the world. It has its own national symbols, emblems. It is a country of very old tradi­tions. I think that before planning travelling to Russia foreign friends would probably like to get as much information as possible.

Project "Russia" (3 слайд)

Russia is one of the biggest countries in the world. It is situated in Europe and Asia. Its total area is over 17 million square kilometers. The pop­ulation of Russia is about 150 million people.

Russia has a double-headed eagle as its sym­bol. It was introduced in Russia in 1497 by Tsar Ivan III.

The national flag of Russia is made up of three stripes: white, blue and red. The white stripe sym­bolizes nobility and revelation. The blue stripe symbolizes courage, generosity and love and the red stripe symbolizes loyalty and honesty. Besides, there are other national symbols, such as St. Andrew's flag and St. George the Victorious.

According to old traditions, a guest should always be welcomed with the symbol of lifegiving food - bread and salt.

The beauty of the ancient towns, their histori­cal and architectural monuments, the gilded domes of the cathedrals, and the autumnal gold of the forests attract tourists from all over the world.

The singing of chastushkas used to be an impor­tant part of Russian rural holidays and parties. In many places they are still popular.

As a rule people have breakfast at 7 or 8 o'clock in the morning. Children and grown-ups are fond of pancakes. Then you have a cup of tea with milk or lemon or coffee and a ham and cheese sandwich.

At about 1 or 2 p.m. we have dinner. It often con­sists of three courses. For the first course we eat chicken soup, cabbage soup (shchi), borshch, mushroom soup or fish-soup. For the second course Russians eat different kinds of salad (meat salad, fish salad, vegetable salad), fried, boiled or stewed meat or fish. For the third course we have a glass of juice, a piece of cake or a pie.
