the British Isles. The British Isles consist of two large islands, Great
Britain and Ireland, and about five thousand small islands. Their total
area is over 244,000 square kilometres.
The United Kingdom is made
up of four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Their capitals are London, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Belfast respectively.
Great Britain consists of England, Scotland and Wales and does not
include Northern Ireland. But in everyday speech "Great Britain" is used
to mean the United Kingdom. The capital of the UK is London.
The
British Isles are separated from the continent by the North Sea and the
English Channel. The western coast of Great Britain is washed by the
Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea.
Shakespeare called Britain a
"precious stone set in the silver sea" because of its natural beauty. It
has a varied countryside where you can find mountains, plains, valleys
and sandy beaches. Ben Nevis in Scotland is the highest mountain, but it
is only 1343 metres high.
There are a lot of rivers in Great
Britain, but they are not very long. The Severn is the longest river,
while the Thames is the deepest and the most important one.
The
mountains, the Atlantic Ocean and the warm waters of Gulf Stream
influence the climate of the British Isles. It is mild the whole year
round.
The UK is one of the world's smaller countries. Its population is over 58 million. About 80% of the population live in cities.

The UK is a highly developed industrial country. It is known as one of
the world's largest producers and exporters of machinery, electronics,
textile, aircraft and navigation equipment. One of the chief industries
of the country is shipbuilding.
The UK is a constitutional monarchy. In law, the Head of State is the Queen.

In practice, the Queen reigns, but does not rule. The country is ruled
by the elected government with the Prime Minister at the head. The
British Parliament consists of two chambers: the House of Lords and the
House of Commons.
There are three main political parties in Great Britain: the Labour, the Conservative and the Liberal parties. Перевидите пожалуйста

shopping all morning and you' re starving! But where are you going to eat? There’s а good chance that you' ll go to а fast food restaurant like Pizza Hut, Burger King or Wendy’s. The biggest problem is choosing one because there are so many.

In the last thirty years fast food has become а major part of our diets. Fast food is cheap, easy to find and easy to eat. You can even eat а burger while you are

driving. Try doing that with а bowl of spaghetti! Families stop at Pizza Hut on the way home from а day trip. Teenagers meet at McDonald s for а burger at lunchtime. Busy office workers buy tasty sandwiches at Subway. It s so quick and easy.

But is fast food healthy? Richard Benton is а nutritionist and he says that fast food can be healthy food. 'Most fast food restaurants have healthy choices like salads and lean chicken sandwiches,' he says. 'Fast food is ОК as long as you don' t eat too much of it.'

People who do eat too much fast food can have health problems. In the United States, 300,000 people а year die from illnesses related to obesity. Twenty per

cent of children in the United States are overweight. The problem has spread as Western fast food has become popular in countries like China, India and Japan. Five to ten per cent of Chinese children are now overweight.

Also, some fast foods contain а lot of fat and sugar. Some health experts believe that high-fat and high-sugar foods change children s behaviour. А recent

survey in Japan found that badly behaved children ate more fast food than well-behaved children.

The good news is that fast food is changing. It is becoming healthier. Thai, Turkish, Japanese and Filipino fast food is becoming popular in the United States.

You can have а quick snack in Elephant Jump (Thai), Jollibee (Filipino) or Yoshinoya (Japanese) if you don' t want а pizza.
