The London TubeHave you ever wondered what strange things lurk within the London Underground (or "Tube") system? The first things people usually think of are the mice that you can occasionally see running along the tracks. (run) In tact, mice arent the only strange things in the Underground system. Passengers leave behind thousands of objects. Items that were once theirs now reside in London Transport's lost property office. (they) The collection is not open to the public, but a wedding dress, sets of false teeth, artificial limbs and a metre -high Mickey Mouse statue are just some of things people could see if they visited the office. Objects that are left in the office for more than three months are donated to charity or sold at auction. (leave)
Found money Shelley was reading an article about some money a builder had found in an old house. He'd gone to the police with $64,000. She asked her friend Paul what he would do if he found a large amount of money. (find) "Oh, the same thing he did", Paul didn't hesitate to respond. "It's not right to keep that kind of money. It's not just $20, you know." (not hesitate) Shelley thought about it for several moments. She couldn't help wondering how the police would know whose money it was. (who) "Apparently", she said, reading the article further, "if nobody claims the money after a certain period of time, the police RETURNS???/слово не даноб но в любом случае оно должно быть в простом настоящем(present simple) it back to the builder". She wondered whether the builder would be lucky on this occasion.
The Thanksgiving Day is a national american celebration. It originates long time ago. If I`m not mistaken, When the first people started began to settle the land of America, they didn`t have any food and probably they would deie because of hunger. If not the indians, who gave them food. It is assumed that the first food that people got from them was turkey, corn, pumpkin and maple syrup. In our days people in America still celebrate Thanksgiving day, mentally thank the God and that indians and eat turkey as a traditional meal on this day.
День Благодарения - национальный американский праздник. Он берёт начало с давних пор. Если я не ошибаюсь, когда первые колонии стали заселять Америку, у них совсем не было еды и, возможно, они бы умерли от голода. Если бы не индейцы, которые дали им еду. Принято считать, что первая еда, которую получили люди - это индейка, кукуруза, тыква и кленовый сироп. В наши дни люди в Америке до сих пор празднуют День Благодарения, мысленно воздают благодарность Богу и тем индейцам и едят индейку в качестве традиционного блюда в этот день.
