II. Summarize the information learnt from the dialogue about the Queen’s family

III. Read and translate the text “What is it like to be a queen?”


 

Being Queen is a really busy job. Elizabeth П gets up early and begins the day by looking through the newspapers. Then she reads letters from the public. She gets more than 1000 each week, and tells her staff how she would like them to be answered.

The Queen has daily meetings with her Private Secretary who helps her to go through her paperwork, and lots of meetings with ambassadors, new judges, and bishops.


 

In the afternoon Elizabeth П often goes out on public engagements – she gets thousands of invitations each year. She opens new hospitals, bridges and factories.

Being Queen is not a 9 to 5 job, and Elizabeth П has to work from early in the morning until late at night. And people watch her all the time.

Of course, she has some free time, and some private life, but less than most people.

In her spare time Elizabeth П enjoys horse racing, fishing, and walking in the countryside. She also enjoys photography and likes taking photos on her travels. In 50 years the Queen has been on 251 official visits to 128 different countries.

,, A light has gone out on Earth -

Diana Spencer was born on the first of July 1961 in Sandrinham in England. She had two older sisters and a younger brother. In childhood she liked swimming, running and dancing. She wanted to become a dancer.

Diana became princess when Prince Charles asked her to be his wife. They got married. For the first time they seemed to be a happy couple but Diana wasn't happy at all. They had two sons prince William and prince Harry. Diana felt depression about her marriage because her husband didn't understand her in many ways. Why was she so famous the most beautiful and the most photographed woman in the world? Why her death did was a real shock to many people? Why did it make the whole world cry? Why do we still remember her?

The answer is so simple. She was a very kind woman. She liked ordinary people. She was always ready to help. She visited hospitals for people with AIDS, she wasn’t afraid to communicate with them. She worked on children's charities. It doesn’t mean she just wanted to give her money. She wanted to share a part of her soul. She wanted to give love because she needed love herself.

Rock and movie stars like Sting, Elton John, George Michael, Nicole Kidman and others were her closest friends plus she had many friends among ordinary people. When she died many people came to London to say goodbye to her and brought her beautiful flowers. People watched the funeral and cried. They listened to Elton John's song “Goodbye, England’s rose”
