Упр.5a Уроки 1-2 Юнит 2 New Millennium English 11 класс

5 A. In pairs exchange your ideas about the following:

1. What makes London unique today?
2. What are the roots of this “uniqueness”?
3. Why is it difficult to bring together tradition and a modern multicultural centre?

1. London is unique today because it is a modern global city with a rich mix of cultures, languages, traditions, and lifestyles.

2. The roots of this uniqueness go back to London’s long history as the capital of a powerful country, a major trading centre, and a place that has always attracted people from different parts of the world.

3. It is difficult to bring together tradition and a modern multicultural centre because old customs and historic buildings must be preserved, while the city also has to develop, change, and meet the needs of people from many cultures.
