Culture and the arts 4, Climate in Bath 8. Bath's ancient history A. Bath is a world famous city known for its thermal baths, which are a major tourist attraction. The city is situated in the southwest of England, near the country’s west coast and about 150 kilometres from London. Bath is in the area of England that is known as Somerset, a county bordered on the north by the Bristol Channel B. The baths for which Bath is known were built around the year 60. It was the Romans who established the city as a spa. They did so about 20 years after they arrived in England. They constructed the baths, along with a temple, on a hillside near hot springs. Over the next 300 years, structures would be added to the baths, making them grander. C. Over the years, Bath slowly became an important city. Wealthy people began moving there in the 1500s. In 1767, construction began on the Royal Crescent, a group of buildings that form a semicircle and look out onto a park, The buildings were constructed in the Georgian style. Afterward, more buildings were builtin the same styl, giving Bath the character it has today. D. Bath is situated in the Avon Valle. The city is built on and surrounded by hills, which have a maximum height of 238 metres. The valley, which is about 18 metres above sea level, runs through the city centre. ‘The River Avon runs through this area, and because it is a low-lying area, the city sometimes suffers from floods during rainy seasons. E, Presently, there are just over 80,000 people living in the city itself. The greater region of Bath, which includes nearby parts of Somerset, has a total population of around 160,000. The majority of people living in Bath are of English birth, with just under 3% of people being from places outside the UK. A resident of Bath is known as a Bathonian. FAs it is located in the southwest of England, Bath generally has winters that are warmer than other parts of the country. Its summers are usually cool and rainy, and the temperature doesn't go much over 20°Celsius. Average rainfall is 700 millimetres, which is spread out evenly throughout the seasons. Its windiest period is inthe winter, while suramers tend to have light breezes. | G. The city of Bath has five theatres, and performances are put on by both national and international ‘companies. There are also important concerts that take place in Bath, as well as literature and film festivals. One such festival decides who in Bath is that year's greatest poet, singer or storyteller. These various events attract thousands of people to the city Orner: ‘Texeret A B c D E F G SaronoBKn Test 1 | Tpoxumaiime mexcm.

Inthe autumn of 1900, a team of Greek sponge divers were returning from the coast of Africa. A dangerous storm started, which forced them to take shelter near the small Greek island of Antikythera. While the crew ‘waited forthe storm to pass, the captain ofthe boat sent one of his divers to search the seabed for sponges. ‘The diver, lias Stadiats, discovered the remains of a 2,000-year-old shipwreck atthe bottom of the sea, 60 metres below. When he returned to the surface, he was so excited about what hed found that the captain thought he had been affected by too much carbon dioxide. But when the captain himself went down to take a Jook, he saw that his crewman really had found ancient treasures, He immediately told the Greek authorities, and the sponge divers, with the assistance of the Greek navy; began to recover the wonderful things. In the following months, using only very basic diving equipment, the divers managed to bring to the surface an amazing number of ancient artefacts, including bronze and marble statues, delicate glassware and gold jewellery. All of this had remained undisturbed for nearly two thousand years. The operation only stopped because conditions became too dangerous to continue. (One of the items that was discovered was a piece of bronze. It was in such poor condition that no one ‘was sure what it was. One archaeologist suggested that it was some kind of clockwork mechanism, but no cone believed him and it was put away for storage in a museum. It was nearly fifty years before anyone else took any interest in the item, In 1951, a British scientist called Derek Price began to investigate the item. He discovered that it contained «a complex gear mechanism and suggested that it was used to make calculations about the position of planets. This regarded asthe world’ frst example of an analog computer. Today, itis world famous, and isknown asthe Antikythera mechanism Before the discovery ofthis mechanism, it was believed that no complex clockwork. ‘machines had been invented until the 14th century. Scientists continue to investigate just how it was used, The site of the shipwreck continues to fascinate modern archaeologists, who are keen to make further diving expeditions in the area, But diving in dangerous waters at depths of between sixty and seventy metres is expensive and difficult, so there have been only afew expeditions over the last hundred years or so. fit difficult now, just think how much harder it was for a team of Greek divers over a hundred years ago.

Types of digital cameras | 3. Operating a digital camera 7. Professional uses today | 4, Features of digital cameras 8. An immediate advantage ‘A. Cameras have come a long way since the time of our grandparents, The days of using film cameras are almost gone. Even the digital camera has come far since its beginning, Now there are digital cameras that fit in your pocket, and there are those for use among professional photographers. Even the movie industry has taken to using a kind of digital camera for shooting films. B. Digital cameras perform a wide range of functions. They can zoom in on an object, just like a film ‘camera, but they can also zoom in digitally for an even closer shot. They can make the colours brighter or darker, and they can make the image sharper. They can even make the photo come out in black ané white, for a more artistic look. C. One great feature of a digital camera is the ability to delete unwanted photos. As soon as you take 1 photo, you can view it on the camera screen and decide if you want to keep it. Ifnot, you can erase it from the camera's memory and take another photo, Its better than having the photo developed from film, which takes time and money. D. A digital camera records an image in basically the same way as a film camera. The difference is that, with a film camera, a chemical process occurs to create the image. With a digital camera, the process is electronic. A sensor records the colours and details of an image, which then appear on the camera's screen. E, You can use a digital camera just as you would a film camera, An obvious difference is that with 2 digital camera, you don't have to load film. You basically just point and shoot. As with any other ‘camera, though, you have to use the flash in dark places, and you can adjust the lens to take photos from far away or up close F. You can attach extra lenses to digital cameras to take special pictures, just as you can with a film ‘camera. Unlike film cameras, though, a digital camera also has a cable that you can use to attach it to ‘a computer, to save your images for emailing and storing on your computer’ hard drive, or sending to printer for easy printing, G. The first digital cameras were used in military and scientific settings. This was around the time of their invention in 1975, These early cameras weighed about 3 kilograms and took black and white photos. ‘A few years later, digital cameras were used in medical facilities. It wasn't until the early 1990s that digital cameras were made available to consumers. Orper: ‘Texerpt A B c D E F G SaronoBKst a3 aP Tlpouumatime mexcm.

Richard III was an English king who ruled England from 1483 until his death in battle in 1485. He is, ‘one of the most famous people in English history ~ so how i it possible that, after being king for only two years, he is still so widely remembered? In the years after his death, much was written about the character of Richard III, Some of this shows 4 positive side of the man and his period as king, but most was rather negative. Why? Firstly the man who defeated Richard in battle became king next, and his family ruled England for much of the next 120 years. Also, many people hated Richard while he was alive. Since historians of the time often wrote histories based on opinions rather than facts, they made sure his name was remembered for negative reasons. They wrote about Richard's desire for power, claiming it was something he would {all for, and perhaps this was true. It didnt help that Richard III had a physical condition that gave him a strangely twisted back and one shoulder much higher than the other. ‘That i the description of Richard III which is shown in William Shakespeare’ 1592 play, Richard II. The brilliant play isa large part ofthe reason why we rememiber Richard II today. Shakespeare created his character as an incredibly evil but intelligent and funny king who, in the end, died for wrongly claiming power. Richard III came to power after his brother, Edward IV, suddenly died. Edward IV's young son, Edward ‘V, was supposed to become king, but a group of powerful people decided the young boy did not have the right to rule, and so Richard II became king, Edward V and his younger brother were never seen again, leading people to believe - rightly or wrongly - that Richard III had the two boys killed. ‘Today we are more aware of the positive things that Richard III did in his short time as king. For example, he created a court where poor people could have legal cases heard for a low cost. He also had English laws, which were written in traditional French, translated into English ‘Another reason we know of Richard III today was the recent discovery of his bones beneath a car park in Leicester, in central England. After his defeat and death on the battlefield, he was buried nearby, with no official ceremony, in an old church which was later destroyed. Five hundred years later, after years of searching through historical records, a team of archaeologists began digging where they believed he was buried. On the very first day, they found the bones of a man with a twisted back and battle wounds. Further research and tests proved that the bones were those of Richard IIL After Richard III died, people only said bad things about him. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Richard’s right shoulder was higher than his left shoulder. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated In Shakespeare's play, we find out why Richard III was evil. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Richard III did not want his brother's son to become king. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated It’s possible Richard III was responsible for the deaths of his nephews. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Before Richard, English laws were usually written in French. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Richard was buried a long way from where he died. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated It took archaeologists years of digging to find the bones of Richard III. 1) True 2) False 3) Notstated ° ayer sadaHu0 B4-B12.

Exercise and health 4. Preventing health problems 8. Work and health A. Staying healthy is just as important as getting help when you do fall ill. Doctors recommend getting vaccinated against certain diseases at a young age, or perhaps when there isa flu epidemic and many people suffer from and spread the disease. ‘Prevention is better than cure, as the old saying goes. Itis ‘easier to get ill than itis to get better, so take care B, Healthy food is essential for the body and the mind. You are what you eat, so if you eat junk food or rink a lot of sugary drinks, think what itis doing to your body. Another old saying is ‘an apple a day keeps the doctor away; pointing out the benefits of eating simple, healthy food. . A good work-out can keep you fit and healthy, but too much can cause problems. There are two forms of exercise, resistant and aerobic, and both have their advantages, but doctors recommend combining both forms for maximum benefit. It can be difficult to find time to go to the gym, because of work or family obligations, but just a few minutes a week can work wonders. D. It is not so easy to combine healthy living with your everyday routine, and sometimes a person's job ‘can present problems. For example, if you work long hours, you can become over-tired and your body gets run down, Other jobs involve alot of pressure, which can cause stress, leading to various illnesses. As always, moderation and care are the best defence against the threat of illness. E, Some groups of peopleare especially vulnerable to illness. Babies, for example, need. clean environment as their bodies cannot yet deal with certain germs or bacteria, and can catch all sorts of diseases very «easily. They need a lot of sleep and a special det, oo, to ensure healthy growth, Each new family should «get the best advice they can from an expert on how to raise a healthy child, F. Both the young and the elderly are high-risk groups. Age brings wisdom, but it can also bring health problems. As your body grows older, it naturally grows weaker, and special care must be taken at this stage in life. Perhaps some gentle exercise or a change in diet becomes necessary, on the advice of your medical consultant. G. If you do become ill, you must act quickly. You could make an appointment with your doctor, or if it is more serious, visit the local hospital. Your doctor might refer you to a specialist if the problem requires expert attention, or your hospital visit might turn into a longer stay if you need an operation. ‘The important thing is ~ seek help!

This is the day when the Russian people celebrate the beginning of modern Russian democracy. On that date in 1990, a document declaring Russian state sovereignty was signed by the country’s leaders, marking the start of the ‘new’ state of Russia as a nation, 12th June was declared a public holiday in 1994, and three years later someone suggested changing the name ofthe day, from the original ‘Day of Signing the Declaration of State Sovereignty’ This was finally done in 2002, and to this day 12th June is known as ‘Russia Day’ Because it isa national holiday, most banks, schools and public offices are closed. Public transport stil runs, but with reduced timetables in most places. The Russian flag is flown and the two-headed eagle, the symbol of the Russian Federation, is displayed everywhere. As you would expect, the state puts on. ‘ magnificent display, and around the country various official events take place to celebrate the day. In the capital, Moscow, there’ a big parade through the streets, and sporting events often take place outside the Kremlin. The President of Russia addresses the nation and takes the opportunity to present ‘medals and awards to important and famous people inthe arts and sciences. Perhaps because itis such a new national holiday, some people are a little confused how it should be celebrated. Musical events and firework displays are common across the country. Some people take advantage of the day to celebrate their cultural heritage by dressing in traditional clothesand demonstrating the traditional dances of the various regions. A more modern way of celebrating may include attending Pop concerts or going for a picnic in the countryside. Environmentalists have sometimes used the day to draw attention to green issues while still expressing their national pride. Some Russian communities abroad also celebrate the day. For example, in 2012 a formal dinner in Chicago, USA was attended by various VIPs representing both America and Russia, and included 4 speech given by the Russian Ambassador to the US. Russian classical music was performed and the dinner featured traditional Russian dishes, while soldiers from both countries were honoured. This celebrated Russia Day and helped to bring Russians and Americans closer together. Despite this variety of focus, the true meaning of the day is clear. No matter how people celebrate ‘on 12th June, they are celebrating the relationship of a country to its past, present, and future, and - above all - its people. No other country celebrates a National Day on 12th June. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated In 2002, ‘Russia Day’ was on a Saturday. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Buses and trains operate as usual in most places on 12th June. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated On 12th June, the Russian President gives a speech at midday. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated ‘There are only a few firework displays on 12th June. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Some people in other countries also celebrate Russia Day. 1) Tre 2) False 3) Not stated ‘The dinner in 2012 helped make some people become better friends. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated People celebrated Russia Day more in the past than they do now. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated 8 Pasycn 3 (3aqaHma lo rpamMatuKe M eKcuKe) sadanu0 B4-B12.

Dmitri Mendeleev was a Russian chemist and inventor who developed the Periodic Law and a periodic table of chemical elements. This allowed him to predict the properties of elements that had not yet | been discovered atthe time. He is internationally recognised as one of the greats ofthe world of science and scientific research. e Dmitri Mendeleev was born in 1834 in the village of Verkhnie Aremzyani near the Siberian city of ‘Tobolsk. He was the youngest child ina very large family. Although the exact number is not known, he had between eleven and sixteen brothers and sisters. In his early years, the family was quite well-off, as ‘Mendeleev’ father was a teacher of fine arts, philosophy and politics. C. The Mendeleev family fortunes changed when Dmitri’ father became blind and had to give up teaching. His wife was now forced to work to support the family, and she re-opened an old glass factory which. belonged to her family. But later, the factory was destroyed in a fire and, because of poverty, the family hhad to move to Saint Petersburg D. Dmitri Mendeleev began his scientific career teaching chemistry, and by 1864 he had been made a professor at Saint Petersburg State University. He soon began to be noticed by chemists around the world, and it wasnt long before he had turned Saint Petersburg into an international centre of ‘excellence in the field of chemistry research. E, Mendeleev was not the first to work on a periodic table of elements. Another scientist, Lothar Meyer from Germany, published an almost identical table a few months after Mendeleev. However, only Mendeleev’ table contained predictions of undiscovered elements, Many scientists did't believe hi predictions, but two of the missing elements were later discovered, establishing without doubt the accuracy of his table. F. Apart from his work in the field of chemistry research, Mendeleev was a founder member of the Russian Chemical Society. He also helped establish the frst ol refinery in Russia and was, at one time, director of the Russian Bureau of Weights and Measures. Finally, Mendeleev is also credited with having introduced the metric system into Russia. G. Mendeleev died at the age of 72 in 1907. His life is commemorated with a museum in his honour at Saint Petersburg State University. A street in Saint Petersburg is named after him, as well as a crater ‘on the far side of the moon. The Russian Academy of Sciences annually awards the Mendeleev Gold Medal for achievements in chemical science and technology. Omer: Texermt A B c D gE | F G | Sarononxit Tipoxumaiime mexcm.

The Maya are a group of people living in Central America and southern Mexico, whose history dates back an incredible 4,000 years. The height of their civilisation is sometimes known s the Classic perio This lasted from about 300 to 900AD, and then suddenly ended, Archaeologists today stil ask, ‘Why did this happen?” ‘There are many possible explanations forthe end of the Classic Maya civilisation, but no-one knows for sure exactly what happened. One possibility is that some groups of foreigners invaded and destroyed some of the most important Maya cites. However, most archaeologists and historians who have studied this subject think this explanation is unlikely Another possibilty involves the expansion ofthe civilisation during the 700s, Some buildings from that period remain unfinished, Why? The suggestion is that poor Maya citizens were forced to carry out the hard building work. Because they were badly treated, they fought back. This would explain why the buildings were never completed. However, scientific research has shown that the buildings werent actually very difficult to build. What’ more, other civilisations that experienced problems like these didnot just disappear. A third possibilty involves the collapse of trade. Some archaeologists believe that the Maya were closely connected tothe city of Teotihuacin by trade. Tis great city ruled central Mexico, and ts collapse in 750AD changed trade routes. However, it has been discovered that the Mayas connection with this city was strong around S00AD. ‘This means that by the time Teotihuacén fell, the Maya were already independent ofthe city’s influence. One of the most likely explanations is a change in the weather, with not enough rain leading to an extremely bad drought. Scientists have been able to work out rainfall amounts at the time from soil samples. It appears thatthe area suffered from a ‘mega-drought and the severe lack of water was enough tostarve the Maya of food. Critics of ths ide say that only the northern regions have been studied and the ‘Maya civilisation was stronger inthe south. Also, certain Maya cities in the north survived until 900AD or even later, but this is possibly because they were located closer tothe sea and could survive on fish Whatever its cause, the end of the Maya Classic period did not bring a complete end to its people. “Today, there are still still in existence lions of them living in the area, speaking one or more ofthe 21 Mayan languages ‘The ‘Classic period’ lasted for more than 4,000 years. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Archaeologists often have meetings with historians to discuss the Maya civilisation, 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Not all of the buildings the Maya started building in the 700s were finished. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Maya buildings were usually very expensive to build. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Around 500AD, the city of Teotihuacén ruled over the Maya civilisation. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Scientists have no idea how much rain fell during the Classic period. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated sme Maya cities continued after the end of the Classic period. a) True 2) False 3) Not stated yya people today all speak the same language. )) True 2) False 3) Not stated Pasgen 3 (3aqaHua 10 rpaMMaTuke M MeKcuiKe) | Tpowumaiime npusedénnesit nuxe mexcm.

Astandard British meals often described as being simple to prepare with afew high-quality ingredi ‘There is typically a main dish, baked or possibly fried, with one or two kinds of vegetable. There i oft a sauce to accompany the meal, and dishes generally consist of foods grown within the country. B. Over the centuries, British cuisine has changed to include foods from other countries, especially Ind large parts of which were ruled by Britain until 1947. Indian food slowly made its way into Brit cuisine, and there are combinations of British and Indian dishesin the UK. The same is true in Gibralta | a British territory at the tip of Spain, which has British food with a strong Spanish influence. . Some common British dishes have direct links with a particular area ofthe country. Yorkshire puddis for example, is often served with meat dishes and Christmas dinner. It comes from the town of Yor in the north of England, A tasty meat pie known as a Cornish pasty originates from Cornwall, in th south-west of England, D. As with other cuisines, locally-grown food is mainly used in British cuisine. Agriculture in Britain long centred round growing potatoes and green vegetables, and producing high-quality beef. Like the British fishing industry has made fish and chips one of the most popular meals. E, People around the world know one or two British dishes. These include the ‘full English bre ‘complete with bacon, eggs and sausage, and Sunday roast, which has roast beef, potatoes, vegetables and Yorkshire pudding, Perhaps a lesser-known type of British food is kippers ~ a small type of fish salted and smoked, which is often served for breakfast F, Afternoon tea, consisting of a cup of tea served with biscuits or scones, has long been a part of Brti cuisine, Catharine, the Portuguese wife of King Charles Il, introduced the idea of drinking tea in afternoon to the English court in the 17th century. Aristocratic ladies soon copied this, and eventual both upper and middle classes in Britain began doing it. G. Christmas dinner, a special meal eaten in many parts of the English-speaking world on Christm Day, is another traditional part of British cuisine. It consists of turkey, stuffing, and a variety of sauces and vegetables. The meal did not always consist of turkey. This began in the 16th century, and King. Henry VII is thought to have been the first monarch to eat turkey for his Christmas meal. Texcrst A B c D E F G SaronopKit | | | | Orer: Test 5 Tpowimaline sailme mexem.

Conservation efforts began in the early 1990s, and in 2005 there were nearly 400 Siberian tigers living. in their natural habitat.

The two governments work together to raise awareness about the difficulties the animal faces and both send police protection to the tigers’ habitat isan area also including small parts of Various ideas have been suggested for increasing the population of the Siberian tiger. One is that a home could be made for them in Central Asia, the natural habitat of the Caspian tiger, since it is avery close relative ofthe Siberian tiger. However, the problem with this suggestion is that there is not a large ‘enough habitat available in this area to support them. Another idea isto introduce the tigers into a wildlife park being setup in Russia. Unfortunately, the park is inthe planning stages and it could be several years before the tigers would be able to live there ‘Although there are few Siberian tigers located in the wild, there are about a thousand living in 2008, around the world.

Saharan watering holes 7. Very hot and very cold 4. Getting around in the Sahara 8, Crossing the whole Sahara ‘A. The Sahara is the one of the world’ hottest and largest deserts. Although it stretches the whole widl of Africa, there are few routes that go all the way from one side to the other. Its possible to travel alo the western edge, from Morocco to Senegal, or the eastern edge, through Egypt and Sudan, A thi route goes right through the centre, from Algeria into Niger. B. Many people who visit the Sahara start in North Africa. Few people travel deep into the desert, those who do can stay in desert camps organised by travel groups. During the day you can explore desert on the back of a camel, or stay in your tent until the temperature drops, which happens wi the sun goes down. C. Daytime temperatures in the Sahara are often well over 40°C, so obviously you must wear cl to protect yourself from the sun, and you need to keep plenty of water handy. Surprisingly, thous you also need blankets and extra clothing to stay warm at night, as the thermometer can drop to nes freezing D. ‘There are very few places to satisfy your thirst in the Sahara, It is not completely dry, though. The are small lakes that support a little plant life and a few nearby tribes. Some are large enough to sup} thousands of people. These areas are often far from one another; travelling between them can take day on camel. E, ‘There are some towns and cities in the Sahara. One is El Oued, Algeria, whose people use water from) an underground river to grow food. Timbuktu, Mali, was once part of a 14th century empire ani is now a UNESCO world heritage site. Beni-Izguen, Algeria, isa religious centre surrounded by high walls that protect brightly-coloured homes. F Its possible to drive in the Sahara by car. However, none of the roads goes very far. One of the oldest ‘ways is by camel, Of course, it is not wise for tourists to use this method to cross the entire Sahara, but for daily trips from desert camps, it’s a smart way to explore places with a guide. G. Winter is the best season to visit the region, as temperatures are slightly easier to handle. It is even possible to experience a rain shower, or (in extremely rare cases) snow. For this reason, most tourists choose to visit the Sahara during this time of the year.

Wales has ‘wo official Ianguages, English and Welsh, Welsh is spoken by slightly fewer than 600,000 people, which Js about 20% of the population of Wales. Why don't more people use the language to communicate? ‘There area few reasons which help to explain this, In the past, Welsh schoolchildren were punished for speaking any language other than English at school. The result of this was that Welsh gradually came to be used less and less. It wasnt until the 1960s that things began to change in its favour. In 1962, the Welsh Language Society was formed, and fought hard to increase the use of Welsh in ‘Wales. It did a number of things to try to achieve this. Sometimes these were illegal, but they were never violent. They wanted two main things. The first was for Welsh to be taught in schools, The second was to set up a radio station and a television station that would broadcast in Welsh. Eventually, the Welsh radio station Radio Cymru was created. After afew more years, a Welsh-language television channel was, started. Then, Welsh children began taking lessons in the language at school, and street signs are now in both English and Welsh, Much of this is due to the Welsh Language Society’ efforts In spite of this, however, fewer and fewer people speak Welsh nowadays. ts a struggle to keep the language alive. While there are more places where Welsh is spoken, its not completely a part of daily life, Private businesses are not required to offer services in Welsh. This means, for example, that Welsh- speaking citizens may not be able to use Welsh when they need to deal with a mobile phone company. ‘They cant always arrange holidays in Welsh either, and it isnt possible for them to use Welsh when they shop in certain supermarkets Another problem i that Wales has a high unemployment rate, which forces young people to move to another part of the UK in order to find job, or even to go abroad, When this happens, they generally have ‘no need to speak Welsh at all. They might know the language asa part oftheir history and culture, but tis. of little or no use in their jobs or daily life The Welsh Language Society has done a lot to make sure Welsh remains a living language. In fa ‘Welsh has become a semi-oficial language of the European Union. This means that people are allowed to speak Welsh if they want to in some EU meetings around Europe. ‘The average person in Wales can speak Welsh, 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Fora long time, education in Wales was given only in English. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated At one point, the Welsh language nearly died out. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated ‘The Welsh Language Society sometimes hurt people during its actions. 1) True 2) False 3) Not stated Traffic police are required to speak both English and Welsh. 2) True 2) False 3) Not stated jany common activities in Wales today are carried out in English. )) True 2) False 3) Not stated »ple who leave Wales to find work still make good use of Welsh, ) True 2) False 3) Not stated ple have to speak English in all EU meetings.
