I am proud of being Welsh. We have our own history, language and cul-
ture. I've got a Welsh flag on my wall and jeans with the Welsh dragons* on.
The best thing about Wales is its natural beauty. Mid-Wales, the green capital
of Wales, has the famous Snowdonia National Park. * Ten million people visit and
enjoy it every year. In Mid-Wales there are more sheep than people! Cardiff, the
capital of Wales, is famous for a few things but the most significant item is the
Millennium Stadium, * the largest football ground in the UK. And it's fun when
there are rugby and football matches and concerts. But most of all I love it when
we all get together at festivals of music, singing and poetry like the Royal
National Eisteddfod of Wales. (Robert) разбор текста
Dinosaurs
The word "dinosaur" comes from the Greek language and means "terrible lizard".
Dinosaurs lived on our planet a very long time ago. The oldest known dinosaur is Eoraptor, a meat-eater that lived 228 million years ago. People believe that dinosaurs lived on the Earth until around 66 million years ago.
Some dinosaurs ate meat and others ate plants. Most dinosaurs hatched from eggs, and they could not fly or live in water. Some dinosaurs walked on two legs, while others walked on all four legs. Some had horns and spikes, others had thick bumpy skin, and some even had feathers.
The biggest dinosaurs were over 30 metres long and about 20 metres tall. The largest dinosaur was the sauropod. The smallest dinosaurs were the size of a chicken.

Динозавры
Слово «динозавр» происходит из греческого языка и означает «ужасная ящерица».
Динозавры жили на нашей планете очень давно. Самый старый известный динозавр - эораптор, плотоядный (мясоед), который жил 228 миллионов лет назад. Люди полагают, что динозавры жили на Земле еще 66 миллионов лет назад. (потом вымерли)
Некоторые динозавры питались мясом, другие ели растения. Большинство динозавров вылуплялись из яиц, не могли летать или жить в воде. Некоторые динозавры ходили на двух ногах, в то время как другие ходили на всех четырех ногах. У некоторых были рога и шипы, у других — толстая бугристая кожа, а у некоторых даже были перья.
Самые большие динозавры были длиной более 30 метров и высотой около 20 метров. Самым крупным динозавром был зауропод. Самые маленькие динозавры были размером с курицу.
