Read it and say if she liked the capital of Russia. Express your own opinion about the place you have visited. A Page from a Diary When I first arrived in Moscow everything appeared to be rather grey and dark but as I came to the city centre there was a dramatic change. There were so many fantastic buildings with very interesting architecture. I found Red Square and the Kremlin very impressive and was surprised by the number of churches and cathedrals in and around Moscow. I got the impression that religion is still at the heart of the Russian culture. Although a large number of churches are not used for services they are beautifully kept. The frescoes and icons ['aikonz] are brilliant. My first journey by Metro was unforgettable. Some of the stations are beautifully decorated. At one of the stations I thought I was in a palace. There were huge chandeliers and wonderful artwork all around. I felt important. Moscow is definitely a city of contrasts. So rich in many ways, yet in other ways, quite poor. There is so much history here, you can feel it everywhere you go. Everything tells a story: demonstrators marching through Red Square, people reading books, magazines and newspapers on the Metro, modern buildings, shops and the things they sell, street markets ... the list is endless! The dramatic changes over recent years are quite evident. Russia has produced a great number of very creative and talented people. Theatrical performances, museums and picture galleries in fact all aspects of Russian life prove that. Moscow is one of the cities of the world that must be seen, I think, and this is what I'll tell my friends when I come back home.

Text №13 Look at the text, find and read out the sentences where verbs are used n the passive voice. Make up a plan that will help you to make a report about a new musical trend. Jazz Have you ever heard anything about jazz? We are sure you have. Jazz is a type of music and the only art form that was created in the United States. Jazz was created by black Americans. Many blacks were brought from Africa to America as slaves. Different native songs were sung by the black slaves and the music of their homeland was played in America. Jazz is a mixture of many different kinds of music. It is made up of the music of West Africa, the work songs of the slaves and religious music. The first jazz bands were formed at the end of the 19th century. They played in bars and clubs in many towns and cities of the South, especially New Orleans. Nowadays New Orleans is an international seaport, and people from all over the world come to New Orleans to hear jazz. Improvisation is an important part of jazz. This means that jazz music is made up or created on the spot. This is why a jazz song can sound a little different each time it is played. With time jazz became more and more popular. By the 1920s, jazz was popular all over the United States. By the 1940s, you could not only hear jazz in clubs and bars, but in concert halls too. Today jazz is played all over the world. On every continent special festivals are held where jazz musicians from the United States, Asia, Africa, South America and Europe meet and share their music. In this way jazz continues to grow and change. Let's hope that no matter what happens in music jazz will always be performed and listened to. Text №14 Read the text then answer the questions.
