Shop Assistant: Can I help you? Mother: I'd like to buy a light summer frock for my daughter. Shop Assistant (addressing Jane, a slim fifteen-years old girl): What size d'you wear? Jane: I don't know exactly. 24 or 26 maybe. Can you measure me? Shop Assistant (measures the girl): You're 24" waist. What d'you think of this pale-blue one, made of silk. It's the latest fashion. Jane: I don't think so. The frock is not bad, but it's slightly out-of-fashion. Besides, the cut is not perfect, the skirt is too long, the collar looks awful and so do the sleeves. And I don't quite like the colour. Will you please show me another dress. I'd like to have a look at this pink one. Shop Assistant: Just a moment! Well, here you are. The size is yours. Jane: Thank you greatly. Can I try it on? Shop Assistant: Certainly, you can. This way, please. (In the fitting-room Jane puts the dress on and looks at the mirror.Then she asks her mother to come in and have a look at her.) Jane: What d'you think, Mum? Isn't it terribly pretty? The cut is fantastic, the colour is raving. Mother: I'd rather say fabulous! Besides, it's a bit loose on you to my mind. You look incredibly thin as though you're dying of hunger. Jane: Mum?! Shop Assistant: Oh, please, don't say so. It fits her perfectly. Take my advice and buy it. Mother: How much does it cost? Shop Assistant: $150. Mother: It isn't very cheap, is it? Shop Assistant: But the dress is from the last fashion collection. Don't you want your daughter look smart? Mother: Do you really think so? Well, where is the cash desk? Shop Assistant: This way, please. Good luck.

The history of the USA dates back only to the 15th century. In the 15th century there was no USA at all. The present territory of the USA was divided among some countries. In the 15th — 16th centuries some territory of the USA belonged to Great Britain (northern and western lands); southern parts (California, Florida, New Mexico, Texas) belonged to Spain, then — to Mexico; the central part, the territory was called Louisiana — to France; Alaska was possessed by Russia; some territories remained to be under Indians control.In 18th century there were only thirteen Britain's American colonies and they broke with Great Britain in 1776 and later were recognized as the new nation of the the United States of America, following the Treaty of Paris in 1783. During the 19th"and 20th centuries, 37 new states were added to the original 13 as the nation expanded their frontiers across the North American continent and acquired a number of overseas possessions.There were three most dramatic experiences in the nation's history: the Civil War (1861-1865), the Great Depression of the 1930s and Vietnam War of the 1960s — 70s. After its victories in World Wars I and II and the end of the Cold War in 1991, the USA remains the world's most powerful state. The economy is marked by steady growth, low unemployment and inflation, and great advances in technology.Nowadays USA is world's third-largest country by size (after Russia and Canada) and by population (after China and India). It is about half the size of Russia or lightly larger than China or Brazil.
