TOP TIPS FOR TRAVEL

Whether you’re studying, working or on a vacation, traveling can be one of the most rewarding and educational experiences in life. But there are also a few challenges that every traveler will face, so we’ve prepared some helpful tips to make things easier.

Learn about the transport system.

Every country is different, but your needs will always be the same: you need to move around quickly and easily. So study the transport system in your destination before you visit. Sometimes it’s really simple: a single metro system for the whole city. Great! Sometimes it’s more complicated: a mixture of public and private train lines, multiple bus companies and different kinds of taxis. Either way, find out about it before you travel.

Download a good map app.

Prepare all you want, but sometimes you’ll get lost. It’ll happen. A few years ago, this might have been a problem, but these days there’s an easy solution: download a good map application to your phone. If you get lost, just turn on GPS and you’ll fi nd your destination in no time. The joys of modern technology, eh?

Learn to say ‘hello’, ‘sorry’ and ‘thank you’.

You don’t always need to learn the entire language of the country you’re traveling to, but you should learn three key words: ‘hello’, ‘sorry’ and ‘thank you’. These words will bring friendly smiles from locals, they’ll get you out of trouble, and they’ll get you help when you need it. Most of all, they’ll make you sound lovely and polite. Learn them!

1. Which types of travel are mentioned?

☐ work, business and study

☐ study, work and vacation

☐ vacation, business and study

3. What can you do if you get lost?

☐ Learn about the transport system.

☐ Use a map application.

☐ Turn off GPS.

2. According to the article, what is an example of a simple transport system?

☐ a single, citywide metro system

4. Which reason for learning to say ‘hello’, ‘sorry’ and ‘thank you’ is not mentioned?

☐ It will help you make friends.

☐ It will get you help when you need it. ☐ It will make you sound polite.

8. Read the text about the Trans-Siberian Railway and do some exercises.

There’s no doubt that the most famous railway in Russia is The Trans-Siberian Railway. It’s short name is the Trans-Sib. It was called The Great Siberian Way in the past. And it really deserves to be called great. This railway passes through whole Russia.

It plays a very important role for the country. Don’t forget about its economic importance. The Trans-Sib connects the Central part of Russia with the Eastern part of the country. This helps quicker development of the Siberian territories.

Look at the map and you’ll realize what a distance the trains covers travelling by The Trans-Siberian Railway. It connects Moscow and Vladivostok. Also this way it passes many Russian cities and towns. Yaroslavl, Yekaterinburg, Omsk, Irkutsk, Chita are among them. The Trans-Siberian Railway is the longest in the world. Its length is 9288.2 kilometers.

There is no other Railway that crosses practically 2 continents of the world. By the way, 20 per cent of The Trans-Siberian is in Europe and 80 per cent is in Asia. On the board between these continents, there is a sign outside the window of the train going on the Trans-Siberian Railway. It’s called “The board of Europe and Asia”.

There are some special excursion tours along The Trans-Siberian Railway. They are very popular among foreigners. They suit those who are interested in going through all the country. You can see how rich and diverse nature and geography of Russia. Here you’ll be able to feel how tremendous its territory is. This is a very exciting and unusual tour.

Those who will decide to go through The Trans-Siberian Railway will have visited 87 Russian cities and towns. Monuments and signs installed near the railroad will inform about coming from one region to another. I think it’s enough big experience. Apart from the cities you’ll find a lot of interesting things during the trip. For example, you will pass the Urals. They divide Europe and Asia. You’ll see a lot of Russian rivers. For example the Volga, the Ob, the Irtish, the Yenisey, Amour and many others.

Of course, Lake Baikal is one of the main sightseeing attractions, which you can see during your trip on the Railway. Lots of people overcome hundreds of kilometers especially to see it. This lake is unique. This is the deepest lake in the world (its deepness achieves 1637 meters). And it’s also the purest one. Going through The Trans-Siberian Railway, you get an opportunity to have a look at this lake. The train goes about 200 kilometers parallel to the lake. Sometimes the road goes very close to the bank. And this makes an unforgettable impression.

The Trans-Siberian Railway crosses 8 time zones. So be attentive or you’ll get lost in time. If to note that the road takes about 10 days then you’ll have to correct your watches practically every day.

The choice of the trains going on the Railway is quite big. But the most comfortable are of course the firm trains. There are air conditioners and television. Such trains make fewer stops. Sometimes they even go 400 kilometers without stopping at any station. This class is often used by foreigners and Russians for traveling.

Sheldon Cooper is known for his love of trains. He decided to take a journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway. After reading the travel blogs, he learned that the most authentic way to travel is a second-class carriage. Sheldon does not yet know what awaits him. Let’s help him and write short life hacks that will help him survive.

Life hack to survive in Russian train

1. The most important thing to take with you is a passport. Seriously, in Russia you cannot feel safe if you do not have a passport with you. A train ticket, as well as medical insurance is naturally needed.

2. Remember that the roads in Russia are incredibly long – In fact for some time you will find your second home on the train. Therefore, in addition to a passport and a ticket, you must take with you déshabillé (especially socks!), flip-flops, hygiene items, lots of food, books and crossword puzzles.

3. ….

4….

Sheldon Cooper is also known for his love of writing paper letters. Imagine that he is writing a letter to his friends in Pasadena. What remarkable things will he tell? You can use the text as a source of information or use the Internet. Describe Sheldon’s observations as a list of facts (remember that the third thing Sheldon loves is making lists). Below is the beginning of the letter.

Dear Leonard, Penny, Howard and Rajesh,

I hasten to tell you that everything is fine with me. There is the fourth day of my journey to Russia. The conditions are almost unbearable, but I have the example of Dr. Spock in front of my eyes and internally fasten. I began to eat this strange Russian food that babushkas constantly offer me. I think now I am 90% boiled eggs, grilled chicken, cucumbers and pirozhki. I almost spent my supply of wet wipes and soon begin to smell like everyone on this train. However, the difficulties of the road are compensated for by the wonderful views of the cities and the countryside outside the window.

But let me put my notes in order:

1. …..

2. …..

3. …..

During his journey, Sheldon has seen many geographic objects. Remember which ones are used with the and which ones are not:

Russia Lake Baikal Novosibirsk Irtish Soviet Union Asia Urals Central Part Irkutsk Chita Siberia Ob Yaroslavl Yekaterinburg Eastern part Moscow Yenisey Europe Vladivostok Russian Federation Omsk Volga Russian Far East Amour
