Прочитайте текст, переведите его и выполните задания к нему.
The Island of Sakhalin.
When people go to bed in Moscow the people о I' Sakhalin are already up to meet the new day. The island lies in one of the most easterly regions of the USSR, just off the great Asian Continent. It is 948 kins long from north to south, 160 kms wide in its widest part and only 6 kms in its narrowest. In the north the island is washed by the cold waters of the Okhotsk. Sea and in the south by the warmer Iapanese Sea.
The climate in those regions is generally harsh, h s either too hot or too cold for the European, but not so cold as on the mainland and considerably water. August on the island of Sakhalin is the warmest month of the year and February with its high winds and heavy snowfalls, the coldest. Winds often blow in from the sea bringing with them rain clouds. The rain, which is plentiful during the summer month, makes the island very green. It's full of forests, hills and mountains and many rivers and lakes. It is rich in timber and fish, much richer then many places on the mainland.
Sakhalin has plenty of mineral resources, notably oil, coal and gas. V/e are doing much to develop the industries of the island and to make it one of the most prosperous regions of the USSR. The people of Sakhalin do not feel cut off from the mainland. Ships and planes come in every day bringing all sorts of goods lor the consumers and the developing industries. There is a regular dealy radio and TV service for the whole island with local programmes and programmes relayed from the mainland. A trip by air to any ol" the big cities on or near the eastern coasts of Siberia takes only 2 or 3 hours. By sea it takes longer, of course, as much as 50 hours by passenger ship. Man;, islanders prefer the sea passage in summer. They consider it pleasanter than the swift flight above the cloud; one can really enjoy the open sea when it is sunny with neither wind nor rain, with the water around in its purest, blues color.
The Sakhalin administrative region also includes the 2 chains of the Kuril islands that stretch out in a wiile Lire from the southernmost tip of Kamchatka to the northern islands of Japan. The largest of the Kurils are centres of the Soviet far-eastern fishing industries. There are as many as 50 islands both large and small in the 2 chains that divide the Pacific Ocean and the Okhotsk Sea on the map. There are more volcanoes are many, but they are not very high. The highest of them seach 2 or 3 kms from the sea level. The Kuril islands are realh the tops of old volcanoes jutting out from the sea and they give the island a speciiic wild beauty that is typical for this part of the world.
I. Ответьте на следующие вопросы:
;. What is the geographical position of the island of Sakhalin? 2. How long and how hide is the island of Sakhalin? 3. What do we mean when we say thai the island of Sakhalin is harsh? 4. Which is the coidest and which the warmest month on the island? 5. What are the island's main resources? 6. What are the daily connections of the island with the main kind? 7. How long is the trip to the island by air and by sea? 8. What part does the administrative region of Sakhalin include? 9. What makes the island specifically beautiful?

Exercise IX
Travel.
The Sovet Union Is a vast country where one should take travel very seriously. The distances one has to cover 1^\1*к.ед.уек. for business or pleasure are often enormous. Nowadays we can get to the farthest regions of our country in a matter of days or even hours! We can travel fast by ordinary trains and faster still by express trains. The fastest possible way to get to your destination is by the modern jet plane.
There seems to be no better way of traveling than by air. It is quick, comfortable and pleasant. In the USSR travel is cheap in comparison, say, to England. The prices for air tickets are moderate, just slightly higher than rail fares. Thanks to the good work of Aeroflot many millions of people travel by air annually. The Sovet Union has the longest air routes in the world and all the main cities are connected by air lines.
Some people still think that rail travel is more interesting than air travel. It is certainly the older mode of getting to places. The train is much slower, of course, but we have the compensation of seeing some of the land we are traveling over in the daylight hours. Most long distance trains have sleeping cars and one carriage is a restaurant on wheels. Traveling by rail is more leisurely. Passengers can sleep or read us much as they like. Many people like to spend long hours at the windows of their carriages watching the changes of scenery.
Here are some comparisons of the time necessary for air and rail travel. The distance between Moscow and Paris, the capital of France, by rail is 3,033 krns and it takes 60 hours to cover that distance. By air, on a TU-104 jet plane, it takes only 3 hours 30 minutes, using a more direct route, of course. Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, is 2,638 kms away by rail, and it takes 58 hours to get there. The IL-18 plane (turboprop) gets you there in just 5 hours. Thake your choice!
