> Oral presentation (Marina and me)

Hello everybody! My name's Maria and this is my friend Marina. In this oral presentation we're talking about the Transports in London.

First, I talking about supermarkets and after, Maria talking about transports in London.

SUPERMARKETS

Supermarkets are an important part of daily life in Britain.

Tesco is the most important supermarket in Britain.

You can buy everything there.

Supermarkets are on the edge of towns and most people drive to them. And the customers can buy petrol too.

People like the possibility to buy everything in one place.

The big supermarkets have started to open smalls shops in town and city centres, to offer necessary things to the customers at every moment.

TRANSPORTS IN LONDON

Have you gone with public tranport sometimes? (blah blah blah... no! Yes!)

There is no problem because Banyoles is small town and there isn't any public transports. But... Yes!! There are some transports.

In London, people usually use the public transport. (Buses, trains, bikes...). The transport is very important for people's life.

They also walk.

The public transport doesn't pollution as transport private. But some people move with their car.

The buses must be red. Normally they have two flats.

There's also underground, it works for ground and underground. It started to work in 1863. There are 274 underground opened stations and every day there are a lot of people who use it.

The buses and taxis travel more quickly because they have got special lanes on the road.

TANKS FOR YOUR ATENTION.

British healthecare system

Most of the time we feel well. We can play sports, go to work and enjoy our lives. Some people have medical insurance but most people can't afford it and rely on the National Health Service, the NHS.
You may need to go to the chemist to buy cough mixture or pills for a headache. You can get prescription for a doctor. Doctors and medical staff can cure lots of illnesses now using surgeri and treatmen with durks.
Hopefully these treatments won't be necessary. The best way to avoid getting ill is to have a healthy diet, get lots of exercise and take good care of yourself.

Computers in our lives.

Computers are a very important part of our lives. They tell us about delays to transport. For many young people, playing computer games is their favourirte way of spending spare time.
The smart home is now a real possibility. And of course you will be able to give new intructions to the computer from your mobile phone. So if your plans change, your home will react to match.


If the temperature outside changes, the smart home will adjust temperature levels inside. Another survey found that people in Britain spend so much time on the phone, texting and reading e-mails that they no longer have time for conversation.

Transport

Exploring Mars is going to be very exciting, but for now, it's easier to explore or own planet. We are going to follow Freddie as he explores all the different kinds of transport in London. He leaves his bike at the station and gets on a train.
They're very important for people who live in the suburbs or outside London and travel London for wor.For many people the journey by train takes them to a convenient Underground station.
The different kinds of transport link up pretty well but sometimes you have to walk from one point in the journey to the next. People use lots of other froms of transport in London.The buses and taxis travel more quickly because they have got special lanes on the road.

Shipping in Britain

In England no town is more than 170 kilometres from the sea. So it's no surprise that Britain has a very important history of ships and the sea. In Liverpool there is a great museum of maritime history.
In the early twentieth century there werer large numbers of very elegant passenger ships. They crossed the Atlantic from Liverpool or Southampton to New York in five or six days. One of the most famous shipping companies is Cunard.
The majority of people do travel around the world by plane but ships are still very important for moving goods. Here at the Southampton Container Terminal they unload more than one and a half million containers each year.

British horror stories

People like to be scared. They love reading horror stories and watching horror movies. Some of the most famous horror stories were written by British writers. One of them put two great horror characters toghether when Frankenstein met Count Dracula.

Bram Stoker got the idea for Dracula while he was sitting in Highgate Cementery in North London. Dracula is so popular that visitors to London can go on a guided Dracula tour.

The vampire was not drinking Mina's blood. The vampire turned his head. His eyes burned with a terrible red light. Blook was dripping from his red lips and long white teeth. The vampire had alredy taken his meal of blood!

Law

The most famous police station in Britain is New Scotland Yard in London, but there are police stations all over the country. They've all got a blue light outside to show they are police stations. We visited a new police station in Lewisham, an area in south-east London. This is the coustody room of the police station.
Next they take fingerprints to check the person's identity. They also take mouth swabs for analysis of DNA.
Next day he went to court. Here three magistrates listen to evidence from the police and witnesses. They then decide if the person is guilty or not guilty. Fingerprints are a good way of identifying people but DNA is more reliable.
A person's identity can be found from a single hair! Each person has got a unique DNA profile. DNA profiles can be matched onthese computers. Forensic scientists provide the evidence that helps the courts decide whether a suspect is guilty of a crime or not. The courts then decide on the sentence.

Supermarkets

Supermarkets are an important part of daily life in Britain. Two of them, asda and Tesco, are also the biggest sellers of clothes in Britain.

In the larger supermarkets you can buy just about anything. The very big supermarkets are usually on the edge of towns and most people drive to them. And while they are there with their car, customers and buy petrol too. People find it very convenient to do all their shopping in one place. As a result, the big supermarkets have started to open small shops in town and city centres.

Soap operas in Britain

The most popular British soap operas are Eastenders and Coronation Street. Many people are addicted to soap operas.
There also web sites for all the main soap operas. These have got information about the actors and stories from future episodes.
Coronation Street is based in Manchester and it is the oldest soap.
As well as showing everyday life in the village there are sometimes special episodes.

Scotland

There are four main regions in Britain – England, Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland.
Scotland is in the north of Britain and has got a lot of wild, mountainous cuntryside in the Highlands. It's famous for its lakes which are called lochs in Scotland.

The majority of Scottish people live in Edinburgh and Glasgow. Like most European cities they've got lots of historic buildings as well as modern shops and restaurants.
Like many parts of Britain, Scotland has also got its own traditions. The unusual instrument known as the bagpipes is also a part of Scottish tradition.

Sport is very important in Scotland. There are lots of famous Scottish people. Most of Scotland's income is from tourism. Millions of visitors come each year.
