III. Reading comprehension

London, the capital city of the United Kingdom, has a population of about 7 million. It lies on the River Thames, where the Romans
landed 2 thousand years ago. From about 1800 until World War II, London was the biggest city in the world, but now there are many
cities which are much bigger. London is famous for many things. Tourists come from all over the world to visit its historical buildings,
such as Buckingham Palace, where the Queen lives, and the Houses of Parliament, where you can see and hear the famous clock,
Big Ben. In the centre of the city there is beautiful St Paul's Cathedral, which was built after the Great Fire of London. It destroyed
the whole town in 1666. Most of tourists visit the Tower of London, the fortress, which was built in the 11 century by William the
Conqueror. Now you can see the famous crown jewels there. On the River Thames you can also see the famous king's Hampton
Court Palace with impressive gardens built by King Henry VIII. In London there are some world famous museums. The British
Museum was the first museum in the world. It opened in 1773. About 6 million visitors a year come there to admire pieces of ancient
Greek and Egyptian art and king's treasures. The Tate Gallery and the Natural History Museum also attract many tourists. Foreign
tourists love visiting Madame Tussaud's, a museum where you can see wax models of famous people from the past to the present
day. And of course they want to ride on the big wheel, the London Eye, next to the river, opposite the Houses of Parliament. Like
many big cities, London has problems with traffic and pollution. It has a fantastic underground system. The London Underground is
the oldest in the world and about 2,5 million people use these trains every day. But there are still too many cars on the streets, which
pollute the air and cause traffic jams. The city is famous for its black taxis and red double-decker buses. There are five large
beautiful parks in the city center. Perhaps Hyde Park is the most famous.
