TRAIN TRAVEL IN BRITAIN

4.1.

Trains in Britain are quick, comfortable and safe. There are a lot of trains on the main routes,
especially to and from London. Unfortunately, tickets can be expensive and, in bad weather, trains are
often late or don’t run at all. Finally, trains to London in the morning are very crowded because of
people going to work.

4.2.

There are many websites which show timetables and sell tickets. It is worth looking at more than one
as prices are often different. You can also ask about train times and prices at stations, where you can
also find free timetables and maps. However, at smaller stations, ticket offices often have very limited
opening hours.

4.3.

Buying tickets in advance is much cheaper than buying them on the day of travel. Trains to London are
cheaper if they arrive after 10 a.m. and a day return is about the same price as a single ticket. Family
tickets are also a bargain as children often only pay £1 for any length of journey.

4.4.

There are a number of different train companies in Britain. Make sure you can use your ticket on the
train you catch or you will have to pay again when the guard checks. Also, if the ticket office is closed,
you have to buy a ticket from a machine and they don’t always offer the best prices.

Tekst A
London River Thames Cruise
If you want to see London from the River Thames, this cruise is ideal for you. You will see all the most
important landmarks on your way from Westminster to Greenwich in just 1 hour. You can spend more
time at Greenwich Pier and see Greenwich Market, the ship Cutty Sark and visit the Royal Observatory.
First cruise at 11:30 a.m., last cruise at 4:50 p.m.

An amateur journalist collected information at Heathrow Airport from over 500 tourists flying back
home from London. Here are the results.
What place/places in London is/are a must-see for a tourist?

Big Ben
70 Buckingham Palace
60 Westminster Abbey
50 Houses of Parliament
40 Trafalgar Square
London Eye
30
National Gallery
20
West End Theatres
10
Tower Bridge
0 Picadilly Circus
10 places you must see in London

Tekst C
There’s no business like show business.
This phrase is definitely true for London. If you can’t find what you want in London, then you don’t
know what you want!
From the classic musical My Fair Lady to Shakespeare’s King Lear, from the Lion King to Harry Potter,
you mention the title of a play and they’ll have it. Tickets start from £30 and can go up to £150 but
they are worth every penny. Our recommendation today is Fantastically Great Women Who Changed
The World at the Rose Theatre Kingston. It’s an amazing show and includes some great stories by Frida
Kahlo, Marie Curie and Rosa Parks, to name just a few.
Buy yourself a present and spend a wonderful evening at the theatre!
Book your tickets here.

Tekst D
Ann: Hi Christine! Would you believe it? I’m in London! But I don’t know where to start. Tom
says the trip is my present and I can decide what to do.
Christine: Well, perhaps start with the London Eye. The views of London from above are amazing!
Ann: I don’t know, I was thinking of a cruise on the River Thames.
Christine: Good idea. Another option is a bus trip around London. In one day you’ll see all the city
and go as far as Windsor Castle.
Ann: I’m not sure. Maybe on my first visit I should see more of London itself. I wouldn’t like to
miss the most important sights, like the Tower of London or the cigar-shaped skyscraper
at St Mary Axe.
Christine: Well, I think what you need is a plan. Decide what’s the most important for you now, and
we’ll see the rest next year when we go there together!
Ann: Right, a plan seems like a good plan 
Christine: Cool! We’ll definitely go to a theatre to see a play by Shakespeare when we go there next
summer!

Hi Christine,
Here’s my plan – please let me know if you think I should change anything!
So on day 1, which is Thursday, we’re going on a cruise along the River Thames. There will also be a

A VOLUNTEER ABROAD
It was eight o’clock in the morning and I was wide awake. The other people in the hostel room were all
asleep and I got dressed quietly because I didn’t want to wake them up. I don’t know why. I would
never see them again. Half an hour later, after a quick coffee and roll in a baker’s near the hostel, I was
at the volunteer worker office with three other hopeful volunteers. We sat there, silently, looking at
each other, knowing we were in competition for the same jobs.
My turn for an interview came and I answered a few questions. The three interviewers looked
carefully at my clothes and hair to see what kind of worker I might be. Back outside, I waited while
more backpackers arrived. Finally, three hours later, they called five of us back in to the room. They
told us we could start work on a farm immediately. They gave us some maps and instructions for a
bus, although not tickets, and we left. The other four were two couples, one from Australia and the
other from New Zealand. They soon got to know each other and talked together like old friends while I
stood alone. On the bus, there were four seats together for them and one for me six rows behind
them. I sat next to a local returning from a day’s shopping.
I sat and watched the landscape through the window. There were green fields and fruit trees at first
but, as we travelled south, the land grew drier. It wasn’t very pretty, with brown hills, no trees and
rubbish by the side of the road, but I loved it. It was fascinating because it was nothing like the
landscape back home.
It was dark when we arrived on the farm. A group of farmers welcomed us and decided who should
work with whom. A man called Kostas took the Australian girl, Josie, and me. He spoke almost no
English but we understood that we should follow him to our volunteer home. We entered a small,
white house and Kostas opened the first door on the right. It was empty except for two small
mattresses on the floor, each with a thin sheet and blanket. Josie went in and I waited outside ready
to see if my room was any better. Impatiently, Kostas, indicated that this was also my room. Josie and I
looked at each other in shock. A room together? I knew what she was thinking. Her partner, Gavin,
was somewhere else in the village sharing a similar room with another, unknown volunteer.
With more sign language and broken English, Kostas told us that work would begin at 5 a.m. the next
day. He told me to drive his tractor to the fields. He didn’t ask if we had driving licences. I was a man
and, in his opinion, I could drive. Driving was the man’s job and, we guessed, there would be similar
differences in duties to come.

6.1. In the morning, the writer


A. went to the volunteer office with three people from his hostel.
B. woke up before anyone else in the room.
C. ate a small breakfast in the hostel.
D. met some friends at the volunteer office.

6.2. Which sentence is true?


A. All of the people at the office found work.
B. The Australians and New Zealanders knew each other before getting work.
C. The writer couldn’t travel on the same bus as the other volunteers.
D. The volunteers had to pay for their own transport to the farm.

WALK YOUR WAY TO HEALTH


In the last ten years, more and more people have taken up Nordic walking. It’s a healthy and easy way
to get fit. All you need are two sticks, or Nordic poles. 7.1. ________ You can also do the sport at any
time of the year.
So, why is Nordic walking so much better for you than normal walking? There are several reasons.
Firstly, when you do Nordic walking properly, you use about 90 per cent of your muscles.
7.2. ________ You lose more weight doing Nordic walking and it is also very good for your heart. In
fact, just three hours Nordic walking a week will make you feel healthier and fitter.
To get the maximum benefits from the sport, there are a few things to learn. You have to hold the
poles correctly. 7.3. ________ Most importantly, when one leg goes forward, you push with the
opposite pole. That means, when your left leg is in front, so is your right arm.
Don’t worry. It isn’t difficult. You just need to practise. You can buy DVDs or watch online videos to see
how to hold the poles properly. Or why not join a local club? Expert instructors will show you what to
do. 7.4. ________ As well as this, you will have other people to talk to while you are walking.
Nordic walking. It’s easier than jogging, it’s healthier than normal walking and it’s cheaper than going
to a gym. Get your Nordic poles today and walk your way to health.

B. Normal walking only uses about 70 percent.
