ENGLISH COUNTRY GARDENS

As well as being the most visited gardens in Britain, the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kow are also a world renowned botanical research centre and a place of training for professional gardeners. The massive 300-acre site has three huge glasshouses containing an astonishingly rich variety of plants.

Many of the buildings at Kow Gardens are as interesting as the plants. There is a large Chinese pagoda built in 1762 and a model of a Japanese temple. Also of interest are the Palm House, a beautiful Victorian iron and glass building, and the Temperate House, which is the largest Victorian glass structure in the world. And let's not forget Kew's library which has one of the largest botanical collections in the world including books, drawings and photographs.

The Eden Project is a large-scale environmental project set up to show the close relationship between people and plants. It also aims to educate people about the need to protect the earth to ensure humanity's survival. Visitors enter the site along a winding path that takes them through a variety of gardens to the two plastic domed structures called biomes. The biomes reproduce the climate conditions of tropical and Mediterranean regions, allowing visitors to see a wide range of plants from these arcas. As it is an environmental project, most waste and water is recycled and power is provided by local wind farms.

Compton Acres, which overlook Poole Harbour, consist of ten separate areas, each of which shows a different garden style from around the world. The paths and terraces separating the gardens are designed so that only one garden can be experienced at a time. The gardens include a Roman Garden, an Italian Garden and an lodian Garden and the Japanese Garden is said to be the only genuine Japanese Garden in Europe. In order to fully appreciate the gardens, visitors are able to rent a cassette audio tour which provides them with information about the history of the gardens as they walk around them. There are also tea rooms, restaurants and an ice cream parlour.

Set in a huge park, Chatsworth House is one of the most popular country houses in Britain. Its fabulous gardens were gradually shaped over a period of six centuries. There is a cottage garden and a kitchen garden growing vegetables as well as a garden containing many fragrant plants which was specially designed to be fully accessible to disabled visitors. There are also a number of fountains. These include the Willow Tree Fountain, which looks like a real tree and sprays water at visitors when they aren't expecting it. There is also the Emperor Fountain, which has a water jet that reaches up to 200 feet in height. The power generated by this fountain is used to supply some of the electricity for the house.

The poet and gardening writer Vita Sackville West and her husband bought the ruins of the Elizabethan manor house, the Sissinghurst Castle, in the 1930s. They then began to restore the buildings and ultimately created one of the most impressive gardens in Britain. While her husband designed the layout of the gardens, Vita chose the plants. The Sissinghurst Castle Garden is designed as a series of 'rooms' separated by high hedges and pink brick walls. Each room' represents a different theme or colour scheme. The gardens are now owned and maintained by the National Trust, an organisation that protects special places in Britain.

THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW

6_______

The valley known as Sleepy Hollow hides from the world in the high hills of New York State. A small river runs its clear water through the valley, and the only sounds ever heard are those of a lost bird looking for its home in the hills.

7_________

There are many stories told about the quiet valley, but the story that people believe most is about a man who rides a horse at night. The story says the man died many years ago during the American Revolutionary War. His head was shot off. And every night he rises from his burial place, jumps on his horse, and rides through the valley looking for his lost head.

8_________

Near Sleepy Hollow is a village called Tarry Town. It was settled many years ago by people from Holland. The village had a small school and one teacher named Ichabod Crane. Ichabod Crane was a good name for him because he looked like a crane. He was tall and thin like a crane bird. His shoulders were small, joined to long arms. His head was small, too, and flat on top. He had big ears, large glassy green eyes, and a long nose. Ichabod did not make much money as a teacher. He was tall and thin, it is true, but he ate like a fat man. To help him pay for his food, he earned extra money teaching young people to sing. Every Sunday after church Ichabod taught singing.

9__________

Among the ladies Ichabod taught was one, Katrina Van Tassel. She was the only daughter of a rich Dutch farmer. She was a girl in bloom much like a round rosy-red apple. Ichabod had a soft and foolish heart for the ladies, and soon found himself interested in Miss Van Tassel.

10_________

Ichabod's eyes opened wide when he saw the riches of Katrina's farm - the miles of apple trees and wheat fields and hundreds of fat farm animals. He saw himself as master of the Van Tassel farm, with Katrina as his wife.

RECYCLING

In the 21st century the ecological problems have become especially actual and painful. Our cities and towns suffer from a huge amount of waste of different kinds. Cans, bottles and paper don't make the place we live in attractive. Besides, the waste also pollutes the soil. The best solution of this problem is recycling, which means collecting waste or used materials and reusing them to produce new products. The items that are typically recycled are glass and plastic bottles, aluminium cans, paper and things made of wood and plastic, etc.

11

So, we recycle many different materials now. One which we are all familiar with is paper. To save energy, trees and all the animals that depend on the trees it is imperative that recycled paper become the norm of our life.

Placing the paper in the recycle bin helps re-create paper from existing resources. This diverts the waste meant for landfills into usable products which uses less energy, water and material to produce.

12

Metals can be recycled without losing any their key properties. Copper, nickel, brass, lead, gold, silver, etc. can all be recycled. Since these metals are all quite valuable only a smaller quantity is in circulation. The recovery of these metals is sometimes ignored especially when they are used in households and these items are disposed of by the householders. Recycling aluminum can reap great benefits thus, reducing monetary as well as environmental costs. To make cans from recovered aluminum, for example, requires 10% of the energy needed to 

make them from virgin ore. Steel recycling, especially from cars and trucks but also from food cans, is very economically as well as environmentally advantageous.

13

Plastic recycling is key in reducing waste. Recycled plastic can be used in many applications and products, such as packaging, construction or automobile components. Plastic film from sources such as pallet wrap, carrier bags, and agricultural film are made into new film products such as bin liners, carrier bags and refuse sacks on a large scale. Use of recycled plastic helps demonstrate a brand image towards commitment to sustainable resource use.

14

Man has found ways to recycle glass. This in fact, is highly recommended and beneficial to the manufacturing line as it is easier to produce and cost less. Crushed glass known as cullets, melts easier and faster and cost less than the raw materials used to produce glass. This practice is endorsed by the US Environmental Protection Agency as a better and greener way to produce glass. Recycled glass is widely used for various purposes, among them construction.

15

We are all familiar with recycling newspapers, aluminum cans, glass and plastic bottles, but many of us are not even aware of the efforts carried out by giant petroleum industry to promote used motor oil for recycling, for example, providing convenient collection sites for the purpose of keeping used motor oil out of our water supplies and making sure that the oil goes back into the recycling cycle. Oddly enough, even after it has been drained from an engine, motor oil retains some of its value. The oil collected can be recycled to save energy. Many institutions, schools or plants process the used oil for electricity generation. Some plants even process it to be used for engine oil again.

16

It is necessary to recycle rubber as it increases landfill pollution. It is used all around the globe in many things, most importantly the tires of vehicles. The rubber takes a very long time to decompose and when it is burnt, poisonous and carcinogenic gases are released increasing the pollution. So rubber is recycled in industries to assist the economy and it also saves energy recycled rubber has many uses. In addition to tires, it is also remade into roofing material, floor mats, garden hoses, and shoe soles, among other uses.

Thus, the development of modern technologies and equipment allows recycling the waste and produce new goods which are necessary for people. Recycling also helps to save energy and important resources and reduce the amount of rubbish. Recycling is important in today's world if we want to leave this planet for our future generations.

What materials can be recycled?

A rubber is recycled in industries

B the oil collected can be recycled

C recycling should start from home

D recycled paper should become the norm of our life

E recycled glass is widely used for various purposes

F we do not think of recycling as a norm of life

RECYCLING

In the 21st century the ecological problems have become especially actual and painful. Our cities and towns suffer from a huge amount of waste of different kinds. Cans, bottles and paper don't make the place we live in attractive. Besides, the waste also pollutes the soil. The best solution of this problem is recycling, which means collecting waste or used materials and reusing them to produce new products. The items that are typically recycled are glass and plastic bottles, aluminium cans, paper and things made of wood and plastic, etc.

11

So, we recycle many different materials now. One which we are all familiar with is paper. To save energy, trees and all the animals that depend on the trees it is imperative that recycled paper become the norm of our life.

Placing the paper in the recycle bin helps re-create paper from existing resources. This diverts the waste meant for landfills into usable products which uses less energy, water and material to produce.

12

Metals can be recycled without losing any their key properties. Copper, nickel, brass, lead, gold, silver, etc. can all be recycled. Since these metals are all quite valuable only a smaller quantity is in circulation. The recovery of these metals is sometimes ignored especially when they are used in households and these items are disposed of by the householders. Recycling aluminum can reap great benefits thus, reducing monetary as well as environmental costs. To make cans from recovered aluminum, for example, requires 10% of the energy needed to make them from virgin ore. Steel recycling, especially from cars and trucks but also from food cans, is very economically as well as environmentally advantageous.

13

Plastic recycling is key in reducing waste. Recycled plastic can be used in many applications and products, such as packaging, construction or automobile components. Plastic film from sources such as pallet wrap, carrier bags, and agricultural film are made into new film products such as bin liners, carrier bags and refuse sacks on a large scale. Use of recycled plastic helps demonstrate a brand image towards commitment to sustainable resource use.

14

Man has found ways to recycle glass. This in fact, is highly recommended and beneficial to the manufacturing line as it is easier to produce and cost less. Crushed glass known as cullets, melts easier and faster and cost less than the raw materials used to produce glass. This practice is endorsed by the US Environmental Protection Agency as a better and greener way to produce glass. Recycled glass is widely used for various purposes, among them construction.

15

We are all familiar with recycling newspapers, aluminum cans, glass and plastic bottles, but many of us are not even aware of the efforts carried out by giant petroleum industry to promote used motor oil for recycling, for example, providing convenient collection sites for the purpose of keeping used motor oil out of our water supplies and making sure that the oil goes back into the recycling cycle. Oddly enough, even after it has been drained from an engine, motor oil retains some of its value. The oil collected can be recycled to save energy. Many institutions, schools or plants process the used oil for electricity generation. Some plants even process it to be used for engine oil again.

16

It is necessary to recycle rubber as it increases landfill pollution. It is used all around the globe in many things, most importantly the tires of vehicles. The rubber takes a very long time to decompose and when it is burnt, poisonous and carcinogenic gases are released increasing the pollution. So rubber is recycled in industries to assist the economy and it also saves energy recycled rubber has many uses. In addition to tires, it is also remade into roofing material, floor mats, garden hoses, and shoe soles, among other uses.

Thus, the development of modern technologies and equipment allows recycling the waste and produce new goods which are necessary for people. Recycling also helps to save energy and important resources and reduce the amount of rubbish. Recycling is important in today's world if we want to leave this planet for our future generations.
