While you are asleep she comes to your room in the middle of the night. She is small with wings and she can fly. She takes the tooth you have left under the pillow and leaves a small amount of money. She quickly disappears with the tooth. This is the myth of the Tooth Fairy.

Children get their first visit when they are aged between 5 and 7 and losing their first teeth. Normally, by the age of 12 all of the 20 baby teeth are gone and the Tooth Fairy no longer appears.

In medieval times it was the custom m many parts of the world to celebrate the loss of a baby tooth with some kind of ritual. For example, the 8th century Vikings had a ‘tooth fee’, a small gift given to children when they lost a tooth. The tradition of the Tooth Fairy as we know it today, however, with her nightly visits, became popular m America in the early 1900s. She has been the subject of various books, films and even a radio series. In the USA Tooth Fairy Day is celebrated on 28th February.

Why is she such a popular fairy? Obviously, children love the excitement of finding money under their pillow m the morning. Not only that, but losing teeth can be a frightening experience, where the Tooth Fairy comforts the child with a little reward. Celebrating the loss of a tooth marks an important moment m growing up. For all these reasons even when children understand that their parents are the ones who creep into their room, they continue to ‘believe’ in the magic of the Tooth Fairy.

So what do you suppose happens to all those little teeth? Some people say the Tooth Fairy uses them to build a castle or make pretty jewellery, while others point to the sky, where she has placed them as stars.

1. Прочитайте информацию, которую учитель дает учащимся, впервые собирающимся в круиз по реке Темзе в Лондоне. Установите соответствие между заголовками A-F и текстами 1-5. Занесите свои ответы в таблицу. Используйте каждую букву только один раз. В задании есть один лишний заголовок.

Match the HEADINGS (A-F) with the TEXTS (1-5).

1.As you know, we are going on a river cruise on the Thames this afternoon. I would like to give you some information before we set off for central London. The Thames is the most famous river in England and is full of history. The river is tidal which means that if we travel with the flow of the water in the centre of the river we can go quite fast. For larger vessels, however, if they travel against the flow of the river, they may double their journey time. The level of water also changes according to the tides.

2.The Thames is also home to the Boat Race between Oxford and Cambridge Universities which takes place every spring. It is a very popular race with about a quarter of a million people watching from the banks of the river. The two teams race against each other by rowing their boats from Putney to Mortlake. However, they have to take into consideration how fast and rough the water is in the middle of the river. Sometimes you can go faster when you’re not taking advantage of the centre current if it is too strong.

3.The Thames harbours some historic vessels. The one we’re going to see today is a replica of the Golden Hind, a 16th century ship captained by Francis Drake. It is believed to be the first English ship to have sailed around the world, a remarkable feat considering how small the ship was. It was on this ship Francis Drake was knighted ‘Sir Francis Drake’ by Queen Elizabeth I.

4.Another famous attraction is the London Eye. It looks just like a big wheel that you find in a fairground. Basically, it is an observation wheel that revolves. The only difference is that you stand in capsules which go around with the ‘Eye’. It is 135 metres high which means that when your capsule gets to the top, you have the most wonderful panorama of the River Thames and London itself.

5.We will also be able to see the Tower of London which is a famous historic landmark. This building has been a fortress, a royal palace and even a prison — for people of status and royalty, of course. However, the Tower of London is also wellknown for two other important reasons. The first is that it has housed the Crown Jewels since 1303. The second reason is the ravens that live at the Tower. It is said that if the ravens ever leave the Tower, the British monarchy and kingdom will fall.

Sir Arthur Соnan Doyle was a Scottish doctor and author who is remembered for his stones about Sherlock Holmes. He studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh and it was during his student years that he began writing short stories. His first novel, which introduced the character Sherlock Holmes, was called A Study in Scarlet and was published m 1867.

Sherlock Holmes was the creation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, but many people of the time believed he was a real person because in the novels he lives at a realistic address — 221b Baker Street. London. He is an amateur detective, chemist and violin player. When he solves a case, he uses his excellent powers of observation and medical knowledge, assisted by his friend Dr. Watson.

Agatha Christie was an English crime writer whose detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple have earned her the title of «Queen of Crime». She also wrote short stories and plays; one of her plays, The Mousetrap, started in 1952 and is still running today in London’s West End.

Miss Marple is a sweet old lady who lives in an English village. She likes knitting and gardening and people regard her as a little confused. However, when it comes to solving a crime, she has a sharp logical mind. She often solves crimes that leave the police mystified. Agatha Christie’s other detective creation is Hercule Poirot who is from Belgium. He is famous for his moustache and his egg-shaped head; he solves crimes by using the power of his brain.
