Summative assessment for the module "Food and drink"за 4четвнрть 8класс​

Every person has imagination. Thanks to this ability we can dream. At first, our dreams are small and simple. For example, every kid dreams to have a candy or to get a small toy as a present. When people grow up, their wishes change so their dreams change with them. We realize that to make our dreams come true we have to be smart, a little bit witty, successful and to work hard as well.

So let me tell you about the evolution of my dream. When I was 4 or 5 I dreamed of riding my own bike. At the age of 8, I dreamt of a kitten. Then my dream was to attend ballet classes. At the age of 14, my ultimate dream was to visit a concert of my favourite band. Nowadays, my dream is to travel. I’d like to see other countries and to explore them. I’ve always been keen on learning new languages, cultures and traditions.

I wish to visit Scotland. It is a land of highlands. Scotland is a part of the UK and it borders with England at the south. It is washed by seas, channels and the Atlantic Ocean. Edinburgh is the second largest city of the country but it is the most visited place. People say it’s a beautiful city worth seeing. The national symbol of Scotland is the floral emblem of thistle. And, the national flag of Scotland with St. Andrew’s Cross.

I’m especially interested in seeing the Scottish Highlands as I know it’s a magnificent place. The highest mountain in the British Isles Ben Nevis is located there. While being in Scotland, I would also try to improve my English speaking skills. However Scottish people speak with a distinct dialect and accent, I would very much like to hear their speech. I would also like to visit the country during the annual Edinburgh Festival. I think this way I can learn more about the culture of local people. I have some other minor dreams as well. But а travel to Scotland is my biggest.
