farms, laboring in fields that would yield barely enough food to feed the family. New inventions and technology began to change that, however. Larger factories opened and produced new farm equipment, such as the steel plow and the tractor, which allowed farmers to cultivate bigger fields and produce more food that cost much less. Developments in the iron industry also played a central role in the Industrial Revolution. In the early 18th century, Englishman Abraham Darby (1678-1717) discovered a cheaper, easier method to produce cast iron, using a coke-fueled (as opposed to charcoal-fired) furnace. In the 1850s, British engineer Henry Bessemer (1813-1898) developed the first inexpensive process for mass-producing steel. Both iron and steel became essential materials, used to make everything from appliances, tools and machines, to ships, buildings and infrastructure. The steam engine was also integral to industrialization. In 1712,

wanted to establish new colonies with his team with three boats and Pocahontas who was later given a name Rebecca. Pocahontas was a local girl who was in an Indian tribe on an island in Virginia. Living among the Native Americans as a prisoner for an extended period, Smith was treated well and earned the friendship and respect of the tribe. Coming to admire this new way of life, he fell deeply in love with Pocahontas. She was intrigued by the Englishman and his ways. But suddenly Smith had to leave because other captain of the English said taht Pocahontas and John Smith can´t ever be together. Smith was away from the island for a long time and he asked one other settler to tell Pocahontas, that Smith had died. Pocahontas was very sad, she was broken. Soon there came another settler called John Rolfe. He helped her adapt to the English way of life. She received education,

Francisco dates to 3000 BC. The Yelamu group of the Ohlone people resided in several small villages when a Spanish exploration party, led by Don Gaspar de Portolà arrived on November 2, 1769, the first documented European visit to San Francisco Bay. Upon independence from Spain in 1821, the area became part of Mexico. Under Mexican rule, the mission system gradually ended and its lands began to be privatized. In 1835, Englishman William Richardson erected the first independent homestead, near a boat anchorage around what is today Portsmouth Square. Together with Alcalde Francisco de Haro, he laid out a street plan for the expanded settlement, and the town, named Yerba Buena, began to attract American settlers. Commodore John D. Sloat claimed California for the United States on July 7, 1846, during the Mexican-American War, and Captain John B. Montgomery arrived to claim Yerba Buena two days later
hoida võimu kauem kui kolm aastat. Üks tema poegadest oli Henry Cromwell, Iirimaa lordasemik Oliver Cromwell suri 3. september 1658 Londonis. Ajalooline hinnang Cromwell on üks kõige enam vaidlusi tekitanud kujusid Briti saarte ajaloos. Mõned ajaloolased nagu David Hume ja Christopher Hill on pidanud teda kuningatapjast diktaatoriks. Hill on kirjutanud, et Cromwelli võim "toetus tääkidele" ja oli sõjalise diktatuuri sümbol. Samas on Cromwelli portree Hilli raamatus "God's Englishman: Oliver Cromwell and the English Revolution" märksa nüansirikkam ja keerukam. Teised, nagu Thomas Carlyle ja Samuel Rawson Gardiner, on pidanud teda vabaduse eest võidelnud kangelaseks. 2002. aastal Suurbritannias BBC korraldatud küsitluses valiti Cromwell 10 kõigi aegade suurima briti hulka. Tema meetodeid võitluses Sotimaa ja Iirimaa katoliiklastega on nimetatud genotsiidiks või genotsiidilähedasteks.

In the early years of the twentieth century, the playwright and social commentator George Bernard Shaw remarked that an Englishman only had to open his mouth to make some other Englishman despise him. What was he talking about? Would he say the same thing today? 8. In the 1930s people in middle-class neighbourhoods often reacted angrily to the building of housing estates for the working class nearby. In one area they even built a wall to separate the two neighbourhoods! This could never happen today. Why not? What has changed? 9.

come haunting again and his feelings towards Alexa become stronger by the day. Everything would be less complicated if Alexa had not found herself a new boyfriend and had not moved to England. Basically the last stage of this book concentrates on his pursuit of happiness. He makes unthinkable efforts and stupidities to prove Alexa that he loves her and that he wants to be with her. He even goes back to England, but discovers that he has become more of a Frenchman than an Englishman and he starts to dislike English manners. "Merde Actually" ends with him going alone to a Christmas holiday in France, since Alexa stands him up, or that is what he thinks. Finally they still meet, because Alexa just runs late, like all the French do. It seems like a happy ending, but actually the trouble just begins, with Paul's bag and passport gone with the train. For me, it was an easy book to read, since it was really fascinating. Stephen Clarke

They brought back word that the land was "of very little use". No wonder they had that idea. The northern shores of Australia are near enough to the equator to be very hot. They get a great deal of rain. The hot, wet climate is one that white people cannot stand well. Much of the western coast is dry and barren. There is a great desert in Australia, and it comes down to the sea on the western and southern coasts. William Dampier was the first englishman to reach Australia. But captain James Cook's explorations on the southeast coast were more important. He was on his way from New Zealand and reached Australia from the southeast. The part of Australia he found was very much different from the country visited by the earlier explorers. He landed in a place of great beauty, rich in plants and flowers, which he named Botany Bay. From Botany Bay James Cook sailed along the east coast as far as the Cape York, where he put up the British flag
ease, and without any sense of guilt tempts us to believe, that his offer is untrustworthy and insincere. Actually, an attempt to apply such an absurd proposal in practice was not originally considered by the author; it is more likely a hidden satire, which is intended to draw the attention of the authorities to what is happening in the country. Alongside with the exquisite use of satire and cynicism the reader can also trace the paradoxical nature of the Swift's work. The fact that an Englishman proposes barbarous prescriptions for the Irish ridicules the highly civilized society of England. By calculating the number of children, who can become a "delicacy" for the nobility and talking that child's skin would make "admirable gloves for ladies" and "summer boots for fine gentlemen", Swift indirectly comes to the severe criticism of the ruling class. The words "admirable" and "fine", he thus uses, put even more emphasis on his negative attitude to the situation
of England. Henry VII united the two rival houses and started the Tudor dynasty. During Henry's reign the medieval period came to a close. There was a revival, or Renaissance, of learning, partly as a result of the printing press, which ended the Church's monopoly of learning. Henry's son and heir, Henry VIII created the Royal Navy, which culminated with the sinking of the Spanish Armada in 1588. One of the leaders of the English navy was Sir Francis Drake, who was the first Englishman to sail around the world. The Royal Navy also enabled England to realize her imperialistic ambitions and defy the Pope and the Catholic powers of Europe. Henry used Parliament to establish himself as the head of the Protestant Church with the Act of Supremacy (1534). His Reformation led to the creation of the religiously distinct Anglican Church. The dissolution of the monasteries provided Henry with much needed wealth.
the game, he said: "People say I'm impatient when it comes to football and they're right. I can't stand the crap that gets talked by everyone: players, fans, the media, club officials. Why should I waste my time listening to people who are clearly less intelligent than me?" Arguably such iron-clad self-confidence is a minimal requirement if Capello, every bit as elegantly turned out as his compatriots, is to succeed Sven Goran Eriksson as only the second ever non- Englishman to legacy of order national side and face the unrelenting pressure for success and glory from fans and the media alike. But while there can be little doubt about the footballing credentials and steely will of a man who has won nine national league titles in 15 seasons with four teams in Spain 1 and Italy as well as the European Champions League, his penchant for dropping

The people of the Southeast were farmers first and hunters, gatherers, and fishermen second. Legend of Pocahontas Pocahontas is most famous for saving the life of John Smith, a leader among the English colonists. In 1607, Smith was captured by Powhatan warriors and held captive for four days. When two large rocks were brought in, the legend goes, Smith had a hunch his beheading was imminent. But Pocahontas begged Powhatan not to kill the Englishman and, being her father's favorite, the chief obeyed his daughter and spared Smith. It is true that Pocahontas had acted as an ambassador for her people to the English. In the first years of the colony, she served as a courier for traded goods and as a negotiator between the two sides. But by 1609 the Powhatans' relationship with the newcomers had soured, and soon war broke out. Finally, in 1613, Pocahontas was kidnapped by the English and held at Jamestown.

For example, children aged 13 may be employed part time in Great Britain. Age 15 is legally a "young person" not a "child". Age 16 is a school leaving age. They can leave home, drive a moped, marry with "parents' consent" buy beer. Age 17 can drive a car. Age 18 can vote, get married, drink in pubs. Education is a very important part in the life of British youth. One can't become an independent person without it. When time comes to enter a college a young Englishman chooses one far away from home. It is a necessary part of becoming adult. During the last 30 years there were a lot of different trends in youth movements. All of them were characterized by their own philosophy, way of life, style of dressing. Each tendency was born by the influence of economic and political changes in the society. Those trends are known as the "hippies" the "punks" the "rockers". But certainly there are different traditional youth organizations in Great Britain. Among
much grander scale, on the Royal Albert Bridge (1859) over the Tamar at Saltash in Cornwall (Figure 8). Here, the central pier was built on a wrought-iron caisson 37ft (11m) in diameter, sunk to bedrock in 70ft (21m) of water and 16ft (5m) of mud. Another improvement in foundations in the early 19th century involved hydraulic cement. A better scientific understanding of the material by the Frenchman Vicat and the Englishman Aspdin and discovery of the material in a natural state in 1796 on the Isle of Sheppey in the Thames estuary, by Lafarge at Le Teil (France), and by Canvass White on the Erie Canal in New York in 1818, led to its use in sinking foundations by the new method of direct flow into coffer dams underwater, as at the suspension bridge at Tournon (France) in 1824. Hydraulic cement had the amazing ability to set
implicature in two ways. First, conventional implicatures are not worked out; they are grasped immediately, not on the basis of reasoning. Second, they are not cancelable (I cannot say "George is a linguist but he's smart--don't get the wrong idea, though; I didn't mean anything about linguists not being smart"). Conventional implicatures are normally carried by tendentious choices of particular words, as of "but" over "and." Grice's original example was "He is an Englishman; he is therefore brave." While I have said that he is an Englishman, and said that he is brave, I do not want to say that I have said . . . that it follows from his being an Englishman that he is brave, though I have certainly indicated, and so implicated, that this is so. I do not want to say that my utterance of this sentence would be, strictly speaking, false should the consequence in question fail to hold.

Simancas in northwest Spain. His letters home soon won him a stipend from England's Master of the Rolls to find, list, and summarize the state papers at Simancas that related to English history and to prepare a volume for the Spanish series of the endless Calendars of State Papers. He forgot his Tudor history. He arrived at Simancas in September, 1860, and established himself in a kind of hotel, the Parador della Luna, where he would do much of his cryptanalysis. An Englishman who visited him painted the scene: "Simancas is a collection of wretched hovels, half buried in dust and sand. There is not a good house in the place. The one in which Mr. Bergenroth lives belongs to a farm bailiff, consists of two storeys, all the rooms of plaster, and the floors of brick. No fireplace in any of the rooms, and, as the winter is very intense here from November to February, and the walls full of holes, nothing but the strongest desire to do service to history could reconcile
