It was interesting to know about St Paul’s Cathedral.
I think the most interesting fact for me was that it took thirty-five years to build the Cathedral.

ST PAUL’S CATHEDRAL
In the West End of London one can see the famous St Paul’s Cathe- dral, the masterpiece of the well-known English architect Christopher Wren. The old building of the Cathedral was sadly in need of repair and Christo- pher Wren was called on to carry out repairs and alterations, but he was pre- vented from doing this by the Great Plague and the Great Fire of London that destroyed the old cathedral. Nearly eight years passed after the fire be- fore the ruins of the old building were cleared away and the new work was begun. When Wren made a start, he picked out a stone from the heap of ru- ins and found on it a word in Latin which meant «I shall rise again». So he made that the first stone of the new Cathedral. That was on June 21, 1675.
It took him thirty-five years to build the Cathedral. All that time, while doing many other things besides, he laboured at this – his greatest
work. He was very poorly paid. He didn’t always get his wages. But in spite of these difficulties all was splendidly finished.
The Whispering Gallery which is over 100 feet above the floor of the Cathedral, is remarkable for its acoustics. A person standing at the en- trance of the Gallery can hear clearly what is said on the opposite side, 107 feet away. Beneath the centre of the dome is the tomb of Lord Nelson killed at the battle of Trafalgar.
Sir Christopher Wren, the great architect of St Paul’s, died in 1723, aged 91, and was buried in the building which his genius and toil had created.
1. В Вест-Энде Лондона можно увидеть знаменитый собор Святого Павла, шедевр известного английского архитектора Кристофера Рена. К сожалению, старое здание собора нуждалось в ремонте, и Кристоферу Рену пришлось провести ремонт и переделку, но ему помешала Великая чума и Великий лондонский пожар, уничтоживший старые здания b кафедральный собор. Прошло почти восемь лет после пожара, прежде чем развалины старого здания были расчищены и начались новые работы. Когда Рен начинал, то он выбрал камень из кучи руин и нашел на нем слово на латыни, означающее «Я воскресну». Итак, он сделал это первым камнем нового Собора. Это было 21 июня 1675 года.
2. На постройку собора у него ушло тридцать пять лет. Все это время, занимаясь многими другими делами, он трудился над своим величайшим произведением. Ему очень плохо платили. Он не всегда получал зарплату. Но, несмотря на эти трудности, все закончилось прекрасно.
3. Галерея Шепота, которая находится на высоте более 100 футов над полом Собора, отличается своей акустикой. Человек, стоящий у входа в Галерею, может ясно слышать, что говорят на противоположной стороне, на расстоянии 107 футов. Под центром купола находится могила лорда Нельсона, убитого в битве при Трафальгаре.
4. Сэр Кристофер Рен, великий архитектор собора Святого Павла, умер в 1723 году в возрасте 91 года и был похоронен в здании, построенном им самим.

The History of Cambridge University

Задание: прочитайте текст и сформулируйте одним предложением главную мысль.
The two «ancient universities» have many common features and are often jointly referred to as Oxbridge.

 

The University of Cambridge is a collegiate research university in Cambridge, England. It was founded in 1209. It is the second-oldest univer- sity in English-speaking areas, and the world’s third-oldest surviving univer- sity. The university grew out of an association of scholars that was formed in 1209, early records suggest, by scholars leaving Oxford after a dispute with townsfolk. The two «ancient universities» have many common features and are often jointly referred to as Oxbridge.
Today, Cambridge is formed from a variety of institutions that in- clude 31 colleges and comprehensive academic departments which are or- ganized into six Schools. All these organizations occupy different locations in the town including purposely-built sites and the student life is found in the arts, sport clubs and societies.
