Уроки по английскому языку – Урок 137

After an hour’s walking and an hour’s culture, I felt* hungry. I looked in vain for an English restaurant but there wasn’t one in sight1. I could have eaten* pizza, crepes, hamburgers, but no English food. So I went into a pub and had a pint of beer and a sandwich. Then I continued my explorations. One thing struck* me: The theatres and cinemas were all cheaper than at home. A good seat in a theatre was about ten pounds. I made* up my mind to go and see a play before leaving*. My first day was exhausting2. I saw* so much that I can’t remember everything. I noticed how the Londoners I saw seemed calmer, even at five o’clock during the rush hour. Another thing that impressed me was the number of parks: St James, Hyde Park, Green Park – and you were allowed to walk on the grass3. I went to Speaker’s Corner and listened to somebody talking about immigration. He said the country was full of foreigners, so I went away quietly.После
часа ходьбы и часа культуры я проголодался. Я напрасно искал английский ресторан, но поблизости не было ни одного. Я мог съесть пиццу, блины, гамбургер, но не английскую еду. Поэтому я пошел в паб, выпил пинту пива и съел сэндвич. Потом я продолжал свои открытия. Одна вещь меня потрясла. Все театры и кино были дешевле, чем дома. Хорошее место в театре стоило около десяти фунтов. Я решил пойти и посмотреть пьесу перед отъездом. Мой первый день был утомительным. Я видел так много, что всего не помню. Я обратил внимание, что жители Лондона, которых я видел, казались более спокойными, даже в пять часов в час пик. Другой вещью, которая меня поразила, было количество парков. Сент Джеймс, Гайд парк, Грин парк – и было можно ходить по траве. Я пошел к Спикере Конеру и слушал, как кто-то
произносил речь об иммиграции. Он сказал, что в стране полно иностранцев, поэтому я тихо ушел.
