Сопоставьте заголовки и тексты: a. the creator of the christmas card d. the ancestor of the christmas card b. the place of creation e. what are christmas cards like? c. displeasure of some people f. christmas cards for children 1. today, we send millions of christmas cards every year. but in fact the christmas card is a relatively modern invention. in the middle ages, european wood engravers produced prints with religious themes. but the first real christmas card, as we understand the term today, was designed in london, england in 1840. it went on sale in 1843. 2. the designer was john callcott horsley, a well known british painter and member of the royal academy. he designed the card at the suggestion of his friend sir henry cole, who was the first director of the victoria & albert museum. horsley produced 1,000 cards and offered them for sale at is (one shilling) each. 3. they were printed on stiff card and coloured by hand, with the greeting: «a merry christmas and a happy new year to you». the card showed three pictures: in the centre, a family party; to one side the hungry receiving food; to the other side the poor being clothed. puritans immediately denounced the card, since it showed people drinking in the family party. but with most people the idea was a great success and the christmas card quickly became very popular. 4. christmas cards were not the first greetings cards. since 1796, with the improvements in printing, merchants had been sending cards to their customers offering «best wishes» for the new year. in many countries, christmas cards gradually became even more popular than new year's cards. 5. as christmas is the birthday of jesus christ, cards often show scenes of his nativity. others show images associated with christmas such as wintry scenes of snow-laden pines, father christmas (santa claus), stars, candles or holly. the traditional greeting written on a christmas card is «merry christmas», but many other greetings are also used, such as «happy xmas» or «happy noel».

he United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated on the British Isles. The British Isles consist of two large islands, Great Britain and Ireland, and above five thousand small islands. Their total area is over 315 000 square kilometers. The United Kingdom is made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Their capitals are London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast respectively. 

The British isles are separated from the European continent by the North Sea and the English Channel. The western coast of Great Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea. The surface of the British Isles varies very much. The north of Scotland is mountainous and is called Highlands, while the south, which has beautiful valleys and plains, is called Lowlands. The north and west of England are mountainous, but all the rest - east, center and southeast - is a vast plain. Mountains are not very high. Ben Nevis is the highest mountain. (1343)
