A.  Which place did Fiona (Alec, James, their par­ents) like most of all? Why do you think so? (Give ex­amples from the text.)

B.  Which of these places would you like to visit? Why?

Part I

1. "Fiona, we're going on holiday. We're going to drive along the coast (побережье) and stop at all the little towns on the way!" My Mum came into my room and she was so excited! I wasn't. I don't think it's fun driving for a week with the boys. I know James will cry a lot and Alec will try to hit (попытается бить меня) me. At least we'll stay in a hotel and go swimming and eat out all the time.

2. It took us a whole day to pack the car. Mum wanted to take all of James's toys, but Dad didn't let her. She took some toy cars and rattles (погремушки) for him. When our things were in the car, we all got inside and were ready to leave. As usual, James sat in his car seat between Alec and me. Dad drove the car for a long time before (до того как) we stopped. The stars and moon (луна) were out. Mum made (заставила) Dad stop at a motel (гостиница) for the night. I was glad (рада)!

3. The next morning we drove again. We didn't drive all day. We stopped at a beach (пляж). Dad let us run around. I picked up three seashells (морские ракушки). Alec picked up some little stones (ка­мешки). James liked to chase (гонять) sea birds into the water. Sometimes he fell down, but he enjoyed it very much. So he got sand in his mouth and wet (мокрые) shoes. Mum took his shoes off and we got back in the car.

4. We ate out all the time at restaurants. James cried because he wanted a peanut butter sand­wich. One night we had lobster. Dad dipped (макал) his lobster in melted (топлёное) butter, but Mum didn't. James ate fish and chips. Alec ate scal­lops (морской гребешок). I don't know what a scallop is but I know that it lives in the sea. One day we ate pizza, Alec's favour­ite. Mum said she couldn't wait to go home and eat home-cooked food.

Part II

One day we went to a museum. It had fishing boats in it. Some were old and broken (поломаны). 

A man told us about a storm that killed (убил) a lot of fisher­men. Next to the museum was a lighthouse. We climbed to the top and looked out. The man told us that the lighthouse had candles (свечи), but now they have electric lights. I liked the museum. I learned a lot of things about the sea.

The amusement park was a lot of fun. We went on the big wheel, on the merry-go-round and on other rides too. Mum didn't want to go on the big wheel, be­cause it's very high. So Dad took me and Alec, while Mum took James on the merry-go-round. I thought it was fun to go on the horses. They went up and down and played loud music. But Alec thought it was for little kids and he wanted to go on the big wheel again. Dad said no, and Alec cried. Instead they went on a ride that turned in circles and Alec got sick.( Вместо этого они катались на аттракционе, кото­рый вращался кругами, и Алека затошнило)

We had to (должны были) drive a long way to get home. It was a fun trip. We saw a lot of beaches and I collected a lot of shells. James was naughty and cried a lot on the way home. Mum got a headache. Dad wasn't happy when we got a flat tire (лопнуло колесо). Everyone had to get out of the car and wait while he changed it in the rain. I'm glad we are home now. I hope that next time we go on holiday James will be bigger and we won't drive so far.
