4) Now we are at Heathrow Airport, the biggest international airport in London. And I offer you to play a role game and become the participants of the excursion. Some of you will be a group of Russian tourists (I suppose Julia, Lera, Anna and Halida) (RT) who are in London for the first time. You want to see the most famous sights of London. The others (Dasha, Dasha, Sveta, Polina, Alina and Kate) (G) will be our guides from the London Tourists Information Office. I will be your Group Leader (GL).

London is a fascinating and exciting city with a very long history and a lot of beautiful attractions. And the best way to see them is a double-decker bus tour. Our trip will include visiting the Tower of London, the Houses of Parliament and famous Big Ben, Westminster Palace and Westminster Abbey, Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery. And in the end of the trip we will have an opportunity to walk in Regent's Park and in Hyde Park.

So, we start our tour and now are going along Tower Bridge. Until 1747 there was only one bridge over the Thames. Now there are 29: for cars, for trains and for pedestrians. But this one is among the most famous of them.

Далее выступает G6 и рассказывает о парках.

So you see, my friends, there are lots to see and to do in London. Here you can always have a good time.

Once an American writer Henry James described London like this: “You cannot call it the most beautiful place, and a comfortable place it can't be called either. It is definitely far from the ideal. And I do not know why but despite everything this place is lovely!” Однажды американский писатель Генри Джеймс описал Лондон так: «Его не назовешь самым прекрасным местом, да и удобным местом его тоже не назовешь. Ему безусловно далеко до идеала. Сам не знаю почему, но несмотря ни на что, это место прекрасно».

1)Одна из студенток выступает в роли стюардессы.

At 10 o'clock every evening the guards lock the big doors of the Tower for the night.
