The western coast of Great Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea.

The country is ruled by the elected government with the Prime Minister at the head. The British Parliament consists of two chambers: the House of Lords and the House of Commons. There are three main political parties in Great Britain: the Labour, the Conservative and the Liberal parties.

Incorrectly and clumsily chosen texts in English and able to discourage desire to learn the language in the most persistent and stubborn. It is important not only to choose the right texts, but also the right to work with these texts. The basic principle of work with texts in English is, and it's not a secret in their reading. But the reading of texts may be different, both in their goals and methods by which these objectives are achieved. The most common objectives sought by the reader of texts in the English language are: the completion of a general or thematic vocabulary, learning and training in the pronunciation of English words and expressions, binding rules of English grammar by parsing the typical examples in the text and their repetition in order to remember and etc. It is clear that to achieve them is necessary to select relevant to these goals texts in English.

Another criterion that must be chosen texts for reading in English, is their complexity (lexical, grammatical). For beginners learning the language required texts easier and shorter to not have time to dispel their attention and not tire too soon. For advanced learners, respectively, need a large variety of complex texts grammatical forms and lexical material. The choice of English texts can be read independently - empirically, or by the teacher. The second method is preferable as a professional teacher can more accurately determine your level of knowledge of the language and choose appropriate texts. If you are engaged in learning English on their own, then you should choose texts in English for the following reasons - the number of unfamiliar words in the English text should not exceed 10-15%. Reading English texts with lots of new words will be time-consuming to access the dictionary and reduce the effectiveness of the learning of new words. A good way to work with texts in English is to read the small fragments given at the end of the most complex translation of words and phrases. Translating words to save time to appeal to the dictionary and spelling will help to learn how to pronounce the word.

Source texts in English may serve English textbooks from the course of high school. They are good in that English texts they are usually arranged in order of increasing complexity, training material carefully dosed, and at the end of the text are usually given tasks and exercises to read the text. They help to better assimilate new lexical material. For beginners learning English are ideal for the old Soviet textbooks, which differ from modern samples are very careful study of educational material and the high quality of its submission.

Newspaper articles may also be used as sources of educational material. However, note that the language of the press is different specificity, there are a lot of abbreviations, a little artistic revolutions, and in general it is for a brief presentation of information to the reader, light of certain facts and events with minimum deviations and maximum savings print space.
The best source texts in English are artistic works of English prose. Stories in English, the head of the novels are an excellent source of new words. Переведите плиз*
