		+	Many people in the world think that Russia is a big, snowy and very cold place- and in the winter, that isn’t far from the truth. A Russian winter brings thick snow, frozen lakes and rivers and freezing cold weather. The “pole of cold”, the place with the coldest temperatures in the world, is Oimyakon, in Yakutia. There, in January, the temperature is –50 C, with the record temperature of –71.2 C in 1926. But Russia is very big  and in Sochi, on the Black Sea coast, the average temperature in winter is about 6 degrees.
		+	Traditionally, popular Russian winter sports are cross-country skiing and skating, but more people now are doing new sports such as snowboarding, or ice diving in the White Sea. Ice diving is very exciting- you can see strange and beautiful sea animals in the water under the ice.
		+	Every winter in Murmansk there is a ten-day Festival of the North, a “mini winter
		+	Olympics”. There’s an ice hockey tournament, Russia’s famous 50 kilometer skiing
		+	marathon and reindeer racing . It’s fantastic. Don’t miss it!

		+	<center>'''Winter in Great Britain.'''</center>
		+
		+	The climate in the UK is generally mild and temperate due to the influence of the Gulf Stream. The climate in Britain is usually described as cool, temperate and humid.
		+
		+	The weather is so changeable that the English often say that they have no climate but only weather. The most characteristic feature of Britain’s weather is its variability. The English also say they have three variants of weather: when it’s rains in the morning, when it’s rains in the afternoon or when it’s rains all day long.
		+
		+	Rainfall is more or less even throughout the year. The average range of temperature (from winter to summer) is from 15 to 23 degrees above zero. Winter temperatures below 10 degrees are rare. It seldom snows heavily in winter, the frost is rare. January and February are usually the coldest months.
		+
		+	So, we may say that the British climate has three main features: it is mild, humid and
		+	changeable. That means that it’s never too hot or too cold. Winters are extremely mild. Snow may come but melts quickly. In winter the cold is humid cold, not the dry one.
		+
		+	In winter boys play football or Rugby, while girls play netball or hockey. Netball is similar to basketball. They are 7 players (usually girls) in each team. They throw the ball through the net at the top of three-metre post. In some schools boys and girls play tennis.
		+
		+	New Year’s Eve is a more important festival in Scotland than in England, and it is called
		+	Hogmanay. It was believed that the first person to visit one’s house on New Year’s Day could bring good or bad luck. In England the most important holiday is Christmas.

Winter in Russia.

Many people in the world think that Russia is a big, snowy and very cold place- and in the winter, that isn’t far from the truth. A Russian winter brings thick snow, frozen lakes and rivers and freezing cold weather. The “pole of cold”, the place with the coldest temperatures in the world, is Oimyakon, in Yakutia. There, in January, the temperature is –50 C, with the record temperature of –71.2 C in 1926. But Russia is very big and in Sochi, on the Black Sea coast, the average temperature in winter is about 6 degrees.

Traditionally, popular Russian winter sports are cross-country skiing and skating, but more people now are doing new sports such as snowboarding, or ice diving in the White Sea. Ice diving is very exciting- you can see strange and beautiful sea animals in the water under the ice.

Every winter in Murmansk there is a ten-day Festival of the North, a “mini winter Olympics”. There’s an ice hockey tournament, Russia’s famous 50 kilometer skiing marathon and reindeer racing . It’s fantastic. Don’t miss it!

Winter in Great Britain.

The climate in the UK is generally mild and temperate due to the influence of the Gulf Stream. The climate in Britain is usually described as cool, temperate and humid.

The weather is so changeable that the English often say that they have no climate but only weather. The most characteristic feature of Britain’s weather is its variability. The English also say they have three variants of weather: when it’s rains in the morning, when it’s rains in the afternoon or when it’s rains all day long.

Rainfall is more or less even throughout the year. The average range of temperature (from winter to summer) is from 15 to 23 degrees above zero. Winter temperatures below 10 degrees are rare. It seldom snows heavily in winter, the frost is rare. January and February are usually the coldest months.

So, we may say that the British climate has three main features: it is mild, humid and changeable. That means that it’s never too hot or too cold. Winters are extremely mild. Snow may come but melts quickly. In winter the cold is humid cold, not the dry one.

In winter boys play football or Rugby, while girls play netball or hockey. Netball is similar to basketball. They are 7 players (usually girls) in each team. They throw the ball through the net at the top of three-metre post. In some schools boys and girls play tennis.

New Year’s Eve is a more important festival in Scotland than in England, and it is called Hogmanay. It was believed that the first person to visit one’s house on New Year’s Day could bring good or bad luck. In England the most important holiday is Christmas.
