It happened while Mr Harris and his wife sitting on the tandem behind him (0) __were cycling__ (to cycle) through Holland. As the roads (1) _were stony, Harris asked his wife to sit tight. She (3) _could not explain later why she (4) _thought her husband (5) had ordered her to jump down. And she did so. Harris (6) went go on without turning his head. He (7) believed his wife (8) was sitting behind him.
Mrs Harris (9) found herself on the road alone.
At first, she (10) supposed her husband (11)wanted simply to show his skill and he (12) would return) soon when he (13) reached the hill. But her husband (14) disappeared in the wood.
She (15) began to cry as she (16) had no money, and she (17) did not know Dutch.
People (18) thought she (19) had lost something so they (20) took her to the police station.
Meanwhile, Harris (21) was cycling with great pleasure. But soon he (22) felt wrong. He (23) looked back but (24) saw nobody there.
While thinking how to find his wife he (25) met some local people. They (26) were sure he (27) would find his wife at the police station. There he (28) was asked when, where and why he (29) had lost his wife.
The meeting of Mr Harris and his wife (30) was not a tender one.
In our city there are many streets, boulevards, avenues, many of which are named after prominent figures of the past or present. Agree, because sometimes it happens that we pass by, work or even live on a street named after such a person, but sometimes we know absolutely nothing about him, his life and activities, and why this street or Avenue was named after this person.
To know about the people whose names the streets of the city are named after means to remember those who glorified our city, region, our country, and therefore means: to know the history and culture of your region, your homeland.
This page of the site contains information about those people whose names are the streets of Kemerovo. These are people who have done a lot not only for our city, but for the whole of Russia. These are participants in wars, statesmen, military leaders, doctors, scientists, business leaders and many others whose courage, intelligence, dedication and work have made them an example for new generations of people.

В нашем городе есть множество улиц, бульваров, проспектов, многие из которых названы в честь видных деятелей или современности. Согласитесь, ведь иногда бывает, что мы проходим мимо, работаем или даже живем на улице, названной в честь, такого человека, но, порой, совершенно ничего не знаем о нем, его жизни и деятельности, и почему именно в честь этого человека была названа эта улица или проспект.
Знать о людях, именами которых названы улицы города, значит помнить тех, кто прославил наш город, область, нашу страну, и потому означает: знать историю, культуру своего края, своей Родины.
На этой странице сайта собрана информация о тех людях, чьи имена носят улицы города Кемерово. Это люди, которые сделали много не только для нашего города, но и для всей России. Это участники войн, государственные деятели, полководцы, врачи, ученые, руководители предприятий и многие другие, чье мужество, ум, самоотдача и труд сделали их примером для новых поколений людей.
