 Card № 10  

You are to give a talk about Scotland. 

Remember to say: 

 - where Scotland is situated and what parts it consists of;  

  - what symbols of Scotland you know;  

 - why Scotland is visited by millions of tourists.    

     I'd like to give a talk about Scotland. Scotland is part of the United Kingdom. It is situated on the greater of the British Isles - Great Britain to the north of England. The country is divided into Highlands and Lowlands. The capital of the country is Edinburgh. There is another important city in Scotland. It is Glasgow. Glasgow is the largest and busiest town in Scotland. Edinburgh is known as the Athens of the North. It is an ancient city where you can feel history at every step. Edinburgh is famous for its Castle. The Castle looks just like a castle in a fairy tale. It attracts a lot of tourists. 

    I know some symbols of Scotland. One of them is the thistle. The patron saint of Scotland is St. Andrew, so the national flag of Scotland has the cross of St.Andrew on it. Another symbol is the Royal Banner of Scotland. It is called the Lion Rampant.The National Anthem of Scotland is Flower of Scotland.  

    Scotland is visited by millions of tourists every year as it is a really beautiful country with picturesque scenery and famous sights. Among the sights is Holyrood House that is a big royal palace which is the residence of the Queen when she is in Edinburgh. I would like to visit Scotland to see the famous Edinburgh military tattoo. It is a festival of performances that started in 1947. That's all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.
