Взгляните на памятники на этих фотографиях. Знаете ли вы, в каких странах были сделаны эти фотографии?
a) These are pyramids. Pyramids are graves where Egyptians buried their kings. That means that the photo was taken in Egypt.
b) This is a statue of a pharaoh. Pharaohs were the kings of Ancient Egypt. It means that this photo was taken in Egypt too.

b) Хотели бы вы оказаться в Древнем Египте с помощью машины времени? Почему?
I would like to travel to Ancient Egypt in the time machine because I am very interested in history and Egypt is the place were one of the oldest civilizations was bom. I would like to know exactly how pyramids were build, because I can’t imagine, how people could build them out of such heavy blocks if they didn’t have the necessary equipment.
a) Прочитайте один из текстов (А, В или С) о Древнем Египте. Есть ли в тексте новые для вас факты?
A) Люди в Древнем Египте верили в магическое животное, у которого была голова человека и тело льва — Сфинкса. Каменный монумент Великого Сфинкса высотой 20 метров расположен возле пирамид у Гизы. Сфинкс был создан 4, 500 лет назад.
B) Иногда фараонов хоронили в каменных пирамидах — огромных конструкциях, которые строились древними египтянами. Эти древние могилы были такими большими, чтобы люди могли видеть, насколько великими были фараоны. Самая большая пирамида, Великая Пирамида, до сих пор стоит на плато Гиза, возле Каира, современной столицы Египта.
C) Одним из самых молодых фараонов Египта был Тутанхамон (он стал королем в возрасте 12 лет — приблизительно в вашем возрасте). Король Тутанхамон умер в возрасте 18 лет. Он был похоронен в могиле в Долине Фараонов, недалеко от древнего города Фивы. Эта золотая маска была найдена среди сокровищ в могиле Тутанхамона.

Tourist: Good afternoon! I have heard that your agency offers travelling in time tours. I want to know more about these tours. What exactly do you mean when you offer your time-machine tours?
Travel agent: Good afternoon! Yes, we have some so called time machine tours. They are tours to Ancient Greece, Ancient Egypt, Medieval France and Medieval Italy. The tours specialize on historic past of the countries. You’ll see nothing but historical monuments and museums. In the evening you’ll see special performances actors in national costumes of the epoch will represent celebrations and everyday life activities of the times. Our guides are professional historians and archaeologists. If you take a tour to Ancient Greece or Ancient Egypt you can also visit and even participate in archaeological excavations.
Tourist: Sounds interesting! But I haven’t decided yet what tour to choose.
Travel agent: I would choose the Ancient Egypt tour. You know, Egypt has a great history. Do you know that Egypt is the birthplace of one of the first civilizations on Earth? The Egyptian civilization is much older than the Greek one.
Tourist: But I don’t really know a lot of things about Ancient Egypt. Perhaps, it will be more interesting to visit Greece and see things I have heard about.
Travel agent: I assure you, if you take our tour to Ancient Egypt you will never regret. You’ll see the stone monument of the Great Sphinx that was built 4, 500 years ago.
Tourist: But who was the Great Sphinx?
Travel agent: It was a magic animal that had a man’s head and the body of a lion. People in Ancient Egypt used to believe in it. The monument has the height of 20 metres and it is quite impressive. You will also see pyramids, including the Great Pyramid and the Tutankhamen pyramid.
Tourist: Excuse me, but what are the pyramids?
Travel agent: They are huge constructions that were built by people of Ancient Egypt to bury their kings, or pharaohs.
Tourist: Ok, you have almost persuaded me to take the Ancient Egypt tour. How much does it coast?
Travel agent: The coast depends on the number of days and additional services included in the tour. I would recommend you to take our special trip for 6 days in October. It’s not expensive. And the guide there is really great!
Tourist: Ok, I’ll take this tour.
