<span>Everybody knows that the Scottish
people have 1 <u>a</u> great sense of humour and that they love to tell jokes.
In fact, Scottish jokes, especially about the English, are funnier 2 <u>than</u>
most jokes i have ever heard. Let me give you an example.
One day, a man from London, 3 <u>who</u> was on holiday, arrived in Glasgow,
Scotland. He was there to visit his cousin but when he got 4 <u>off</u> the
train at the station there was no one at the train station to meet him. The
Londoner was upset about about 5 <u>it</u> but he was even more upset because
of the weather. It 6 <u>was</u> pouring down with rain.
The Londoner waited for about thirty minutes and then decided to get a taxi to
a hotel. 7 <u>While</u> he was trying to find a taxi, he got wetter and wetter
and more and more angry. A taxi finally stopped for 8 <u>him</u> and after
putting his luggage in the boot, he climbed into the taxi. The first thing he
did was ask the driver 9 <u>how</u> long it had been raining. To his surprise,
the driver replied, "i don't know, sir. I have 10 <u>only </u>(не уверена) been living here
for twenty years."

<span>Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy was constructed as the bell tower for the city's cathedral. However, at that time the architects weren't experienced. So, it was built on soft ground and as soon as it had been built, it slowly began to lean.
Over the years, many attempts were made to stop the tower from leaning. Once, people removed stones from the bottom in order to put strong metal rods in, but the stones that were being removed were part of the foundations so the tower leaned even more! Since then it has been reinforced to correct this. Today, the tower can still be seen leaning to one side. It is covered in marble and it is very beautiful. Unfortunately, however, it was closed to the public in 1990 after it was revealed that a single busload of tourists at the top could make it fall over completely! All the same, it will be visited by tourists for many years to come.</span>
