Слайд 9The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is
situated on the British Isles. The British Isles consist of
two large islands, Great Britain and Ireland, and above five thousand small islands. Their total area is over 244 000 square kilometers. The United Kingdom is made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Слайд 10The British isles are separated from the European continent by
the North Sea and the English Channel. The surface of the
British Isles varies very much. The north of Scotland is mountainous and is called Highlands, while the south, which has beautiful valleys and plains, is called Lowlands. The north and west of England are mountainous, but all the rest - east, center and southeast - is a vast plain. Mountains are not very high. Ben Nevis is the highest mountain.
