UNIT 2. MOSCOW: THE LORD OF THE RINGS

For his epic fantasy Ronald Tolkien borrowed magic rings from ancient

myths and historical legends. As for Moscow, it had its own rings from the very beginning. In fact, it came into being as a city of rings. Like many ancient cities it

was founded as a fortress. When first mentioned in the chronicles in 1147, it was a wooden fortress on a high hill at the confluence of two rivers, the Moskva and the Neglinnaya. In the latter part of the 4th century Prince Dmitry Donskoy replaced the oak walls with white stone, and later Italian architects replaced them with the red brick walls that we admire today.

Moscow’s second ring, what is called Kitay-Gorod, has practically disappeared. Nothing is left but a fragment of the wall behind the Metropol Hotel and another fragment in Kitaygorodsky Passage near the Rossia Hotel. But if you descend into the underground crossing on Slavyanskaya Square, you will see a section of the bulky white-stone foundation of Kitay-Gorod’s biggest tower, the Varvarskaya (of St. Barbara). Kitay-Gorod was not a complete ring. Its walls, which embraced a neighborhood of wealthy merchants, adjoined the Kremlin on the side of Red Square. The fortress was built in 1536—1538 by Petrok Maly (Pietro the Minor), an Italian architect.

Moscow periodicals of the 1830s wrote: «Laying out boulevards is a happy invention. It has made our old capital incredibly beautiful.»

The Boulevard Ring, Moscow’s third ring, also began as a fortress, White City. It embraced settlements north of the Kremlin all the way down to the Moskva River.

White City was built under the eagle eye of the monarch’s expert, Fyodor Kon, in 1586—1593. Its size and beauty earned it the name of Czar’s City. This largest stone fortress in Moscow was over nine kilometers long and had twenty-seven towers, ten of which served as gates. Today, on the site of these ten gate towers are the ten squares of the Boulevard Ring. On the site of the most beautiful tower of the fortress, the Tower of Seven Peaks, now stands the Cathedral of Christ the Savior.

Moscow’s longest and shortest-lived fortress, the Skorodom («very quickly built»), was erected of logs in 1592. Two decades later it burned down during the Polish invasion. Instead of rebuilding it, Moscow erected a huge earthen wall on the site.

Two centuries have passed since the earthen walls were demolished, and a wide road appeared in their place. People who wished to build a house along the road were asked to lay out lawns and gardens before their homes. So the road came to be known as the Garden Ring. The lawns and gardens disappeared long ago. Today the avenue is lined with 20th-century buildings in the Russian Art Nouveau style and creations of Stalin’s style.

Moscow’s fifth and last defense line, the Kamer-Kollezhsky Rampart (from the Camera Collegium, the Ministry for Taxes and Fees), was built during the reign of Peter the Great in the early 18th century. It served as the city’s customs boundary, protecting it from smuggling. Only few streets have survived from the rampart and they are not connected.

Like every megalopolis, Moscow is having traffic problems which can be solved only by creating more transport rings. The map of Moscow may be compared to the cross section of a tree trunk with a series of successive growth rings, but Moscow’s rings are secular rather than annual.

In the past Moscow reduced all its medieval fortresses to ring roads. Today it continues to add ring after ring. Its administrative border is marked by the largest ring, the Moscow Outer Automobile Ring Road (MKAD), built in the 1960s. This is a 109-km highway with circular traffic.

The Third Transport Ring Road is one of the largest-scale projects of recent years. Its length is 36 kilometers; 12 kilometers represent tunnels, bridges and overpasses. The Lefortovo tunnels alone are 4.5 km long and lie deep under a historical neighborhood. The capital’s two other rings, serving as a surface railroad and an underground metro line, bring the total number of Moscow’s rings to nine. Devotees of Tolkien’s epic with its nine magic rings might have stopped at this. But Moscow keeps moving on. Now it is preparing for a fourth transport ring, for motor vehicles.

Part I. Unit 1. City or village? advantages and disadvantages of different lifestiles

The
place where you live plays a very significant role in your life.
There is a great difference between living in a city and living in a
country. The living style, the personality, the relationship between
people change according to the place where you live.

Living
in a city has both advantages and disadvantages. On the plus side, it
is often easier to get education and to find work, and there is
usually a choice of public transport, so you don’t need to own a
car.

Also,
there are many social activities to colour your life. When you are
bored you can find a lot of interesting things to do and places to
see. For example, you can eat in good restaurants, visit museums, go
to the theatre, cinema or to concert.

What is
more, when you want to relax, you can usually find a park where you
can feed the ducks or just sit on a park bench and read a book. All
in all, city life is full of bustle and variety and you need never
feel bored.

However,
for every plus there is a minus. For one thing, you might have a job,
but unless it is very well-paid, you will not be able to afford many
of the things that there are to do, because living in a city is often
very expensive. It is particularly difficult to find good, cheap
accommodation. What is more, public transport is sometimes crowded
and dirty, particularly in the rush hour, and even the parks can
become very crowded, especially on Sundays when it seems that every
city dweller is looking for some open space and green grass. Last of
all, despite all the crowds, it is still possible to feel very lonely
in a city.

It
seems that city life can be particularly appealing to young people,
who like the excitement of the city and don’t mind the noise and
pollution.

However,
many people, when they get older, and particularly when they have
young children, often prefer the life in the countryside. They make
this choice not only because of the peace and fresh air. The
relationship and the sincerity between people are more close in the
country than the city. The city people think only about money, money,
money… their goals are designed according to that reality. They are
very formal and they are very sincere only when they come face to
face with someone in the upper class. They only have dialogue if they
need help or if they want to have a profit from you. They are never
happy with what they have as they always want more and more.

The
pure country people are more reliable, helpful, sincere and
spontaneous. They like helping each other whereas the city people
never deal with the other people’s matters.

Необходимо помнить, что люди, путешествующие с личными или деловыми целями, имеют различные по­требности, так же как отличаются требования к гости­нице у групповых и индивидуальных туристов.

Гостиницы с полным набором услуг, которые могут подразделяться на отели типа люкс, высококлассные гостиницы и гостиницы с набором основных услуг, обеспечивающие самое широкое разнообразие средств обслуживания и удобств.

Время от времени все категории гостиниц с полным набором услуг подвержены избыточному предложе­нию (особенно гостиницы с основным набором услуг).

Размещение экономического класса обслуживает ог­раниченный сегмент потребителей и придает особое значение номерам, которые конкурируют с номерами гостиниц с полным набором услуг.

Службы питания и напитков, банкетинга серьезно ог­раничены, но компании подчеркивают высокое каче­ство предоставляемых услуг.

Доля государственных и бюджетных отелей среди отелей экономического класса делает акцент на низкие цены и меньшие комнаты для гостей или минималь­ные удобства. Государственные отели типа люкс ком­бинируют маленький размер номера с роскошной об­становкой комнаты для гостей.

Акцент в гостиницах типа апартаменты делается на номера, но часто предлагаются также услуги службы питания и напитков.

Финансовые результаты показывают, что гостиницам с полным набором услуг наносится очень существен­ный вред конкуренцией со стороны гостиниц с огра­ниченным набором услуг.

Гостиницы для отдыха предназначены для путешест­вия и должны предоставлять широкий спектр развле­чений и видов деятельности.

Таймшеры становятся отдельным видом услуг, пред­лагаемых гостиничными компаниями, который характеризуется большей сложностью и более длительным сроком обязательств.

Размещение в гостиницах выполняет важные общест­венные функции, но эти функции не могут быть ус­пешно реализованы до тех пор, пока гостиница не сможет работать прибыльно.

XI. Read the dialogue between two former col­leagues working in hotel business, who meet at the annual Hoteliers’ Conference.

John: Hello, Tom!

Tom: How nice to see you, John! I haven’t seen you for ages!

John: No, not since I left the Hyde Park Towers. It must be four years. You’re not still there, are you?

Tom: I’m the General Manager, actually. Congratulations! You’ve done well! Thank you. What are you doing here?

John: Oh, I’m still involved with hotels. I’m a partner in a com­pany that builds leisure facilities — swimming pools, saunas, tennis courts, that sort of thing. I can’t interest you in a pool, can I?

Tom: I’m afraid you’re too late. We’ve already got one. We’ve] made quite a few changes since you were there. We built | a large extension a couple of years age with a pool, fit-‘ ness center, solarium-and sauna. We’ve opened a couple j of tennis courts. It’s a pity we didn’t know about you. We| might have been able to give you some business.

John: Well, I’ve only been there for a little over a year. But tell me, you must be doing pretty well, then?

Tom: Yes, things are a lot better than they were four years ago, that’s for sure. You know there was a take-over about a year after you left?

John: Yes, I heard.

Tom: Well, they’ve put a lot of money into the hotel, and it really looks great now. Our rooms are far more comfortable and we offer the best facilities in the area. So of course we can charge higher prices. It’s certainly paying off— occupancy rates are right up!

John: Well, it was about time. What about those old family rooms in the annexe?

Tom: Last year, we converted them into business apartments and a business center.

John: Really? Good idea. A lot of hotels are going that way.

Tom: We’re hoping to open a suite of conference rooms in the next year or two.

John: Well, the old Towers certainly sounds a different place!

Tom: Yes. We’ve expanded the restaurant too.

John: Who’s the chef? It’s not still Jiovanni, surely?

Tom: Heavens, no! He’s gone back to Italy. No, in the end we hired a top French chef, Marcel. Have you heard of him? He’s been with us for more than three years now, and he has certainly made a difference. You must come and have a meal with us some time.

John: Yes, I must. It’s just a pity I can’t sell you a swimming-pool.
