 BRITAIN
Complete the suitable words in the text:
Many students visit Britain every summer either as tourists, or to learn the language, or to do a combination
of the two. If you’re thinking of (1) visiting Britain, there are a few (2) things that you should be (3) ready
for. Firstly, the (4) weather can be very changeable – even in the summer – so you never (5) know what it’s
going to be like. It might be rainy or sunny, hot or cold, so you should (6) be prepared for everything and
take (7) both summer clothes and warmer ones.
Secondly, opening hours for shops, pubs, etc. can be very different from other (8) countries. Shops normally
open at 9.30 a.m. and close (9) at 5.30 p.m. with no break (10) in the middle of the day. As (11) for pubs,
their opening hours vary. Normal hours are 11.30. a.m. to 2.30 p.m. and 5.30 p.m. to 10.30 p.m., although
(12) you may find some pubs are open longer than this. You will also find (13) discotheques open quite late,
but generally speaking, night-life finishes early in Britain, and so does (14) public transport.
Finally, a (15) word about eating. If you want to eat out there are a lot of restaurants, but they (16) tend to be
expensive, unless they are Indian or Chinese. Food in these is generally tasty and good (17) value for
money. But don’t forget that you may (18) eat in pubs and there the food is often good, varied and cheap,
although if you’re under eighteen they won’t let (19) you drink alcohol with your meal.
One last thing: if you do come, have (20) a great holiday!
