Упр.11 Unit 1 Рабочая тетрадь ГДЗ English Михеева 8 класс

Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Михеева, Афанасьева 8 класс, Дрофа: 11. Read the text and answer the questions after it.
Hawaii
Hawaii was not always a green sunny paradise. These islands were born in fire. A chain of volcanoes came up from underwater in the Pacific Ocean. Now, millions of years later, we can see the upper part of the 132 Hawaiian islands. One or two of the volcanoes are active. On Hawaii, the largest and youngest island, the volcano often sends hot red ash into the sky.
People from many nations came to live in Hawaii. The newcomers brought new plants and animals. Foreign plants and animals have changed Hawaii little by little.
Many of Hawaii’s smaller islands are too small for people. They give home to millions of sea birds, seals and turtles. Visitors are few, and many of the birds are not afraid of people. Hawaii’s islands are famous for their beauty. It’s a wonderful warm place too. The capital of the Hawaiian Islands is Honolulu, on the Island of Oahu. It is a popular place for Americans to go on holiday.
