Краткий пересказ на . примерно 10 предложенрйthe thameslondon would not be london without the river thames. it flows 215 miles across the english countryside and then through the heart of the great city before it reaches the sea. the thames has played an 1) extremely important part in making england what it is today.england had very few roads in the past, so the thames provided a major highway between london and many parts of the country. people could also send supplies of food and other goods to and from london by boat. in times of war, london was protected from sea attacks because they built castles and forts at the mouth of the river. people from the london area got their 2) drinking water from the thames, and 3) thirsty cows and sheep were a common sight along its banks.with the 4)industrial revolution in the 18th century, the thames became one of the busiest waterways in the world. factories made and exported goods of all kinds. so people became rich and many of them built 5) beautiful houses along the banks of the river. the 6) famous writer charles dickens spent part of his 7) childhood there and later wrote about the thames in his books. today the thames has become a symbol of london, just as much as big ben or buckingham palace. if you take a stroll along its banks, you'll have a day full of 8) pleasant surprises. you can admire bridges built in many 9) different architectural styles. the most famous one is probably tower bridge which actually opens up 1,000 times a year to let ships through. or you might be 10)lucky enough to see london's rowing event, the oxford and cambridge boat race, which takes place on the river every spring. whether you're a londoner or a visitor, the thames will always have something to offer you.
During winter holidays we celebrate the New Year’s Eve and Christmas. There are New Year parties for children at schools and theatres. Cinemas show children films and cartoons.
It is usually very cold in winter, but frost and snow can’t keep children indoors. It’s so great to go skiing down a hill. Boys like to play hockey on the ice. Many children go to the skating-rinks to skate. Small children play snowballs and make snowmen, or ride on the sledges happily.
When the weather is bad, I stay at home and watch TV. There is always something interesting on during winter holidays. Sometimes my friends come to see me and we play computer games or listen to music. There is also more time for reading, drawing, making model planes and other hobbies.
Holidays pass quickly and soon it’s time to go to school again.

Зимние каникулы короче, чем летние. Они начинаются в конце декабря и продолжаются около двух недель. Это так приятно отдохнуть от школы.
Во время зимних каникул мы празднуем Новый год и Рождество. В школах и театрах проходят новогодние елки для детей. Кинотеатры показывают детям и мультипликационные фильмы.
Зимой обычно очень холодной, но мороз и снег не может держать детей в помещении. Ведь это так здорово покататься на горных лыжах. Мальчики любят играть в хоккей на льду. Многие дети ходят на катки кататься на коньках. Маленькие дети играют в снежки и лепят снеговиков или весело катаются на санях.
Когда погода плохая, я сижу дома и смотрю телевизор. Во время зимних каникул всегда показывают что-то интересное. Иногда мои друзья приходят ко мне и мы играем в компьютерные игры или слушаем музыку. Существует также больше времени для чтения, рисования, изготовления моделей самолетов и других увлечений.
Каникулы проходят быстро и скоро пора идти в школу.
