Задание 1. Read the text.
Valentine’s Day.
In the UK it’s the most romantic day of the year! February 14th is traditionally a celebration of love, so how do people in the UK mark the occasion?
Cards. Sending a Valentine’s card to a loved one is a custom that started more than a century ago. Couples give cards to each other, but it is also traditional to send an anonymous card to anyone you secretly love. This practice is particularly common in schools and can be a source of great amusement and embarrassment as everyone tries to work out who sent a card and who has a secret admirer! Valentine’s Day symbols on cards include hearts designs, doves, and the figure of the winged angel, Cupid.
Poems. The card might also feature a poem. Probably the most famous lines from a Valentine’s Day poem are:
Roses are red, violets are blue, Honey is sweet, and so are you.
There are some ironic variations on this poem such as: Roses are red, violets are blue,
You look like a monkey and smell like one too!
Mobile love. Millions of people use digital means of creating and sending Valentine’s Day greeting messages such as ecards, social media posts or printable greeting cards. Texting your Valentine message is an easy (although maybe not very romantic!) option. Valentine’s Day text messages include:
WUBMV – will you be my Valentine
xoxoxoxoxo – hugs and kisses
LUWAM<3 – love you with all my heart
ImRdy4Luv – I’m ready for love
:'-) – I’m so happy, I’m crying
ILUVU – I love you
Flowers and chocolates. As well as cards, February 14th is also a day for giving gifts. Traditionally, men give chocolates or flowers to their wives or girlfriends. There are lots of websites offering advice on which Valentine’s present to buy. Popular choices include red roses, a box of chocolates, romantic songs, a phone, jewellery, a photo frame or perfume.
Unusual gifts. Some people think that flowers and chocolates seem a little ordinary and so they look for a more unusual gift. For romantic people with plenty of cash, these gifts could include a helicopter flight, a balloon ride, the chance to test-drive a Ferrari or an all-day session at a health club. Others, however, complain that Valentine’s Day is yet another opportunity for ever-increasing commercialism. For true romantics, the gift of love is enough. Valentine's Day is a popular day to either propose or get married – you’d never forget your wedding anniversary!
