Famous places in Great Britain

The Royal Shakespeare Theatre was opened in Stratford in 1932. Only Shakespeare's plays are performed here.

Those who come to Oxford certainly are interested in its university most of all. It was founded in the 12th century. But there is no "university" as such in Oxford. The component parts of the University of Oxford are the colleges. Each college is practically autonomous. But they do not stand in isolation, they are mixed together with houses, shops and offices.

Cardiff is the capital of Wales and its chief port. Cardiff is also a tourist centre. There are some places of interest there. Wales is sometimes called "the land of song". One of the Welsh traditions is festivals. Song festivals are very popular.

Edinburgh is a city where the historic past lives side by side with the present. Edinburgh Castle is the most famous building in the city.

Edinburgh is especially famous for its festivals. In summer there is the Edinburgh Festival. This is Britain's biggest arts festival. Besides the official festival there is also an unofficial festival.

Deforestation (Вирубування лісів)

One of the biggest ecological problems is deforestation. It is caused by human activity. People cut down trees in rainforests (тропічні ліси) to clear (очистити) the land for farming or to build roads. Logging companies (Лісозаготівельні компанії) sell wood for furniture and building houses. All these careless actions lead (веде) to the lack (нестача) of fresh air, as less trees produce less oxygen and release more CO₂. In addition, lots of exotic animal and plant species live in rainforests and when people destroy these forests, animals lose their home and become endangered [ɪnˈdeɪndʒəd] species (стати зникаючим видом). Some trees in rainforests are a source (джерело) of important medicines which help to cure serious diseases (лікувати серйозні хвороби) and with their disappearance (зникнення) the production of these medicines will be impossible.
