Используя этот текст надо написать 7-8 предложений о праздниках( желательно красивые) In Britain you can hear different words about the days when
most people do not go to work and celebrate different traditions or simply relax. These days off are called common law holidays, bank holidays and public holidays. Why? What’s the
difference?
We can find an explanation in history and law.
Before 1834 about thirty-three saints’ days and religious festivals were celebrated as holidays, but in 1834
only four were left: 1 May, 1 November, Good Friday and
Christmas Day. The name “bank holidays” first appeared
in 1871 in the Bank Holidays Act, which was introduced by a
politician Sir John Lubbock – a Liberal MP.
A banker, scientist and social reformer, Sir John Lubbock
aimed to ease the life of the working class people when he suggested introducing days off, which were not religious holidays.
As banks were closed, all people had a day off. English people
were so thankful that they called the first Bank Holidays “St.
Lubbock’s Days”.
After that, public holidays were renamed or added to the
calendar of different UK countries in different years from
1903 to the present time.
Very often the two words – bank holidays and public holidays – are used interchangeably in everyday life, although legally there is a difference. Strictly speaking, bank holidays
are holidays when banks and many other businesses are closed
for the day. Public holidays are holidays, which have been celebrated for many years through custom and tradition.
In fact, whether holidays are bank or public, is written in the
Banking and Financial Dealings Act 1971, which replaced the
Bank Holidays Act 1871.
If a public holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, it is usually celebrated on the next working weekday, called “a substitute public holiday”. Extra bank holidays are created by Royal
proclamation. For example, the wedding of Charles, Prince
of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencer on 29 July 1981, the Golden Jubilee of Elizabeth II on Monday, 3 June 2002 and the wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton on 29 April
2011 were made extra bank holidays.
