Текст:
Olga: Welcome to Washington, D.C. (1), my friends. The city stands on the Potomac River (2) and is bordered by the state of Maryland to the north and Virginia to the south.
Misha: So what state are we in now?
Olga: We're not in a state, Misha, but in the District of Columbia. That's what the letters DC in the name of the city stand for. As Washington is the capital of the country, it's not in any state in the United States. That's logical, isn't it?
Misha: But why?
Olga: Washington is the home of all the government institutions for the whole country: Congress, the White House, the Supreme Court (3). All the foreign embassies are here too.
Emily: I think you're right, Grandma.
Mark: Look, everyone, the city is so beautiful! It doesn't look like a capital city at all.
Olga: Yes, there's a lot of green here, so many parks and lawns. Wait until this evening when the whole city turns into a big fitness club. Everywhere people will be jogging (4), playing football or volleyball, or riding their bikes. The climate is not too severe here, although it can be too warm in the summer. Sometimes they even advise children not to go outside. Because government is the city's only industry, the level of pollution can be quite low, especially in the cooler months.
Misha: That's really interesting! It's so different from Moscow, where we don't have nice weather very often.
Rob: It's different from London too. In our capital city the level of pollution is so high that it's really horrible for people who go jogging in the streets.
Olga: OK. I need your attention now, my friends. This isn't just another park we're passing. It's Capitol Hill, and the white building up there is the Capitol (5), where laws are passed. The Capitol has housed chambers of the Senate and the House of Representatives (6) for almost two centuries. The cornerstone of this impressive building was laid by George Washington himself. If you want to see it from the inside, we can go on a tour round.
Emily: Oh, no, thanks. We don't have very much time here, so I think we'd prefer to see the White House first.
Olga: Well, let's leave the car here then. The place we're looking for is world famous. It's the White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20500 . So if you want to write to the American President, now you know the address. Here we are. Look (7), isn't it beautiful?
Mark: It's not as big as I thought it would be. Let's hurry! We want to go in.
Olga: I'm sorry, my dear, but there are no regular tours of the White House. If you really want to go inside, you have to plan the whole thing well in advance and buy special tickets.
Emily: Oh... I didn't know. But why?
Olga: Because the President and the First Lady live here. It's their home and they need some peace and quiet. Did you know that all the Presidents of the United States have lived here (8)?
Rob: Yes, we did.
Olga: There is one exception, however: George Washington never lived in the White House. It was finished after his death.
Misha: Oh, we didn't realise that. We were wrong all along. This isn't the meeting place of our four presidents.
Mark: At least we know that there's no hidden treasure here, so we don't need to go in. Are there any other places in Washington that are connected with the presidents?
Sure, there are lots of them. For example, look at this four-sided stone structure which looks like an Egyptian obelisk (9). It honours
