Queen and Parliament
It's hard enough to understand the way the British government. In Britain, the Queen - the head of state, but in fact it does not run the country, and has no power. Queen is the symbol of the country, its history and traditions. It is very rich. She travels to the kingdom, meeting people and visiting schools, hospitals and other places. So do all the members of the royal family: the husband of Queen, her son Prince Charles, Princess Anne, daughter of Queen and Princess Margaret, sister of the queen.
In the early twentieth century, many countries around the world ruled by Britain. Among were British colonies, and they were part of the British Empire. India, Pakistan, Ceylon, for example, were also part of the Empire. Now these countries are independent states. But in 1949, Britain and its former colonies formed the Commonwealth of Nations. Commonwealth includes many countries, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand and others. British Queen is also head of the Commonwealth and the Queen of Canada, Australia, New Zealand.
The real power in the country belongs to the British Parliament and the British government. The British Parliament consists of two houses: the House of Lords and House of Commons. in the House of Lords a little power, but it is of great importance , as it can offer and change the laws, and to delay them. The House of Commons makes the laws of the country's politics, taxes, and many others.
Members of the House of Lords are not elected but selected. are permanent members. Often it is the aristocracy, church people, lawyers and former politicians or life peers.
Members of the House of Commons select. Britons choose 650 members of the House of Commons every five years.

Let me introduce myself. My
name Vlad and I’m 14 years old. I live in one of the largest and most
beautiful cities in the world, in Moscow. My parents are both doctors,
and they want to see me as a doctor in the future. We live in a
three-bedroom flat on the outskirts of the city. My school is situated
within a walking distance from our block of flats, but my parents take a
subway to work every day, except weekends and holidays. We have a
lovely country house in Podmoskovye. It’s the territory that surrounds
Moscow. We usually spend weekends at this place. If we go by car, it
takes us about two hours to get there. We all love the surrounding
nature at that area. It’s simply wonderful. Our country house is
situated next to the lake and the forest. In autumn my parents often
pick mushrooms and berries in this forest. I prefer the summer weather.
When it’s warm enough, I go swimming in the lake with my friends, who
are also there for the weekend. Speaking about the structure of our
house, I should mention that it’s a two-storey brick building with many
windows and the front door. There are three bedrooms and a bathroom
upstairs. There is a kitchen, a dining-room and a living-room
downstairs. You can see vast expanses of land behind the house. My
parents grow fruit and vegetables there. Each year, we have our own
harvest of potatoes, cabbages, apples and pears. When it’s someone’s
birthday, my father makes barbeque and we invite our friends and
neighbors over. What I especially like about our country house and the
area, where it is situated, is the peaceful atmosphere. There is neither
city noise nor traffic jam. It’s one of the calmest and most beautiful
places in Moscow region.
Позвольте мне представиться. Меня зовут
Влад и мне 14 лет. Я живу в одном из самых больших и красивых городов
мира, в Москве. Мои родители оба врачи, и они хотят видеть меня врачом в
будущем. Мы живем в трехкомнатной квартире на окраине города. Моя школа
находится в нескольких минутах ходьбы от нашего дома, но мои родители
ежедневно пользуются метро, чтобы добраться до работы, кроме выходных и
праздничных дней. У нас есть прекрасная дача в Подмосковье. Это
территория, которая окружает Москву. Мы обычно проводим в этом месте
выходные. Если мы едем на машине, дорога туда занимает у нас около двух
часов. Мы все любим окрестную природу этих мест. Она просто потрясающая.
Наш загородный дом расположен рядом с озером и лесом. Осенью мои
родители часто собирают грибы и ягоды в лесу. Я предпочитаю летнюю
погоду. Когда достаточно тепло, я купаюсь в озере с друзьями, которые
тоже приезжают туда провести выходные. Говоря о постройке нашего дома,
нужно отметить, что это двухэтажное кирпичное здание с множеством окон и
входной дверью. Наверху располагаются три спальни и ванная комната. А
внизу кухня, столовая и гостиная. За домом можно увидеть обширные
просторы земли. Мои родители выращивают там фрукты и овощи. Каждый год у
нас свой собственный урожай картофеля, капусты, яблок и груш. Если у
кого-нибудь день рождения, мой отец делает шашлык, и мы приглашаем наших
друзей и соседей присоединится. Что мне в особенности нравится в нашем
загородном доме и в области, где он расположен, так это спокойная
атмосфера. Здесь ни городского шума, ни дорожных пробок. Это одно из
самых спокойных и красивых мест в Московской области.</span></span>
