READING
SCHOOLS TEACH IN FOREIGN LANGUAGES
Many Russian schools teach some subjects (предметы) in foreign langua-ges. These schools opened not only in such big cities as Moscow and St. Peters-burg but also in smaller towns.
Geography, history, European literature are some of the subjects which the boys and girls study in these schools in English, French or German.
These schools have twice as many (вдвое больше) hours for the study of languages other schools.
HISTORY
Pony Express (1)
In 1870 there were no railways west of the Missouri River, North America. Very few people lived there. Mountains, deserts and great canyons (каньон, ущелье) made the country almost impassable (непроходимый). Many wild animals made it their home. How could people who lived there send letters to other parts of the country? The Pony Express made it possible. This was a post service the agents of which went on horseback in relays (2). The agents were brave men, cool in moments of danger. They rode at full speed, regardless of (невзирая на) cold or heat or danger. When a tired man on his tired horse rea-ched the station, he gave his mail-packet (почтовый мешок) to the next agent, and fresh man on his fresh horse went on without a moment's delay (задержка).
Примечания
(1) Pony Express - "экспресс на лошадках". Значение этого названия вы узнаете из рассказа.
(2) went on horseback in relays - ехали верхом на лошадях посменно Сравните on horseback верхом с horse лошадь и back спина. Relay в технических текстах значит реле.

QUOTATIONS
Men are what their mothers made them.
R.W. Emerson (USA, 1803-1882)
Language is not an abstract construction of the learned, or of dictionary-makers, but is something arising out of the work, needs, ties, joys, tastes of long generations () of humanity, and has its bases broad and low, close to the ground.
Walt Whitman (USA, 1810-1892)
