The town I live in is not very large and there are no big galleries and museums in it. But we have a good Natural History Museum in our town.
Last week I was on an excursion there. First we listened to a lecture on the history of our region which was very interesting. Then a guide showed us the exposition of the museum. We walked through its halls looking at different stands with exhibits. There were ancient vases and coins, dishes and bowls, tools and arms. The guide told us about the origin and the age of the exhibits and answered our questions. The girls asked questions about national costumes and dishes and the boys were interested in arms.
The next hall was even more interesting. There we saw stuffed animals and birds. It was a small zoo of the region nature. There was also an aquarium full of different fish, tortoises and shells. The collection of minerals was interesting, too.
I have learned very much from my visit to the museum.

Packing by jerome к. jerome holiday time was near now, and we, that is, harris and george and i met to discuss our plans. harris said that the first thing was to discuss what to take with us. he also said that we couldn't take the whole world in a boat. they could take what they really needed. "it is very important, " harris said, "to have everything we need for a long swim every morning before breakfast." he also said that a long swim always gave him fine appetite. "if you're going to eat more than you usually do, " george said, "i think we'll let you go swimming not more than once in three or four days. if you go swimming every day, we'll never have enough food for you. we won't be able to carry so much in the boat. " so we discussed the food question. "begin with breakfast, " george said. "for breakfast we must have a tea-pot, " harris said, "ham, eggs, bread and butter and jam. it's easy to prepare breakfast with such things. and for lunch — cold meat, bread and butter and jam — but no cheese. " we agreed. cheese in a boat in summer, little by little becomes the master of all the food. you may think you're eating sausage or meat and potatoes or cake, but it all seems to be cheese. choose the right variant: variant a 1. gathered to discuss holiday plans, a) two b) three c) some 2. they decided to go a) cycling b) boating c) fishing 3. harris wanted to food, a) much b) little c) no 4. was not good for travelling. a)hani b) cheese c) tea 5. jerome's friends with him. a) agreed b) disagreed c) were angry
