Ireland is an island to the west of Europe. It is a little smaller than Portugal and a little bigger than Sri Lanka. It is- washed by the Atlantic Ocean in the east, and the Irish sea in the west.

The island is divided in two parts. The larger part, the Republic of Ireland,

is in the south, with the population about 3.5 million people. Its capital is Dublin. The smaller part, Northern Ireland, belongs to the United Kingdom, and its big city is Belfast. There are about 1.6 million people in the North Ireland.

Ireland is a small country, but a lot of people in the world know about it.

Ireland has never been a very rich country. It is not rich in money, but it is very rich in other things — in music, in poetry, in song.

Ireland is a beautiful country, with fine lakes, tall mountains and attractive beaches. It has several rivers. One, the Liffey, flows into the sea on the east coast. The other, the Shannon, flows into the sea on the west coast. It is a very green country. Because it is so green, people call it the "Emerald Isle".

William Shakespeare

(1564-1616)

William Shakespeare was one of the greatest and famous writers. He was born in 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon. It was a small English town. His father wanted his son to be an educated person and William was sent to the local grammar school. When the boy studied at school he had no free time. When he had a rest William liked to go to the forest and to the River Avon.

At that time actors and actresses visited Stratford-on-Avon. William liked to watch them. He was fond of their profession and he decided to become an actor.

He went to London. There he became an actor. He began to write plays too. Shakespeare was both an actor and a playwright. In his works Shakespeare described important and dramatic events of life. His plays were staged in many theatres, translated into many languages and they made Shakespeare a very popular man.

The most famous plays of the writer are "Othello", "King Lear", "Hamlet", "Romeo and Juliet".

He produced thirty seven plays. He was connected with the best theatres of England during twenty five years.

William Shakespeare wrote a lot of poetry. His poems have been published in many languages. They are well known among people. We don't know a lot of facts of Shakespeare's life. We can only guess what kind of man he was, that's why there are many legends about his life.

William Shakespeare died in 1616. But his plays are popular now and millions of people admire them.

The second meal of the day is lunch. People usually have it at work. As a rule, lunch is a light meal. Dinner is the biggest meal of the day. Some people have dinner in office, others have it at home when then come from work. On week days it is difficult to gather the whole family for dinner, because people finish work at different times. But on Sunday dinner usually begins with an appetizer: a little salad, a piece offish, tomatoes or cucumbers. The main course of the dinner is soup. For the second English have roast meat with fried potatoes or sometimes macaroni or spaghetti. For the dessert they drink a glass of mineral water or juice. Supper is the last meal of the day. Supper must be a light meal. It is a long-standing tradition.
