THE MAP OF THE WORLD
The hand of a compass always points to the north. Opposite
the north is the south. If we face the north, the east is to the right
and the west is to the left. The Sun rises in the east and sets in the
west.
If you look at the map of the
world you can see that the greatest
part of the Earth’s surface is
covered with water. There are four
oceans on the surface of the earth.
The names of the four oceans are:
the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic
Ocean, the Indian and the Arctic
Ocean. In fact, the four salt water
oceans together with fresh water
lakes and rivers cover more than
70 percent of the Earth’s surface. The five continents or land
areas of the Earth cover a much smaller area; they form only as
much as 30 percent of the Earth’s area.
If you are watchful you can certainly see that there is more
land in the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere.
The names of the five continents are Eurasia (Europe and Asia),
Africa, America, Australia and the Antarctic.
A continent is a large part of land in an ocean. The Red Sea lies
between Asia and Africa. White, black, red, yellow – all of them
are colours. Perhaps, people call these seas by the colour of their
water.
The Baikal is a very large body of water. Is it a sea? In case
you say “No”, you are right. It is very large lake. Though the
198
Baikal is much larger than some of the seas are, it is a lake
because it has no outlet into an ocean and its water isn’t salty. The
Caspian Sea has no outlet into an ocean either, but people call it a
sea and not a lake because of its salty water.
FOREIGN LANGUAGES
IN OUR LIFE
Learning a foreign language isn’t an easy thing. Nowadays it’s
especially important to know foreign languages. Some people
learn languages because they need them for their work, others
travel abroad, for the third studying foreign languages is a hobby.
Everyone, who knows foreign languages can speak to people
from other countries, read foreign authors in the original, which
makes your outlook wider.
I study English.
It’s a long and slow process that takes a lot of time and efforts.
Over 300 million people speak is as a modern tongue.
The native speakers of English live in Great Britain, the
United States of America, Australia and New Zealand. English is
one of the official languages of the United Nations Organization
and other political organizations.
English language is a wonderful language. It’s the language of
the great literature. It’s the language of William Shakespeare,
Charles Dickens and others. Half of the world’s scientific
literature is in English. It’s the language of computers
