Reading section
1. Read the text and answer the question:
Like any other country Britain has its manners and customs as well as reputation.
Foreigners often say that in English trains people never speak to each other. But this of course is not true.
Not long ago I was travelling to London. In my compartment there were many passengers and they talked to each other almost all the time. They told each other where they lived, where they were going and, of course, talked about the weather. As soon as the train started a little girl sitting by the window, called out:" We're off'. I found out that she was going to her aunt's in Chiswick. It's somewhere near the Thames but I don't know exactly where." Shall we be passing anywhere near it?" "Chiswick? That's easy to find. You can get to it on the Tube. I'll show you where to go when we arrive", I told her. "Goodness, how fast the train is going!" said an old lady. " Do they go so fast in snowy weather and at night?" Her neighbour smiled, took out a book and began to read. Here was a typical Englishman: during the whole journey he didn't say a single word. But as we arrived in London, he got up and turning to the lady he said with a strong accent:" Excuse me. I do not understand English. I am from Poland."
