The months of the Year
January comes with frost and snow
February brings us winds that blow,
March has winds and happy hours,
April brings us sun and showers,
Pretty is the month of May,
June has flowers sweet and gay,
July begins our holiday,
August sends us all away,
September takes us back to school,
October days begin to cool,
November brings the leaves to Earth,
December dying sees the birth
Of the New Year and all its mirth.

Wales-A Land of Song.
In the west of Britain lies one of the most beautiful parts of the British Isles-Wales. The mountains and valleys in Wales are very beautiful. There are many sheep- and cattle-farms in the green valleys. Central and North Wales are farming regions, while the valleys of South Wales are the industrial part of the country. They are rich in coal. There are many busy towns around with iron, chemical and oil works there Cardiff, the capital of Wales, is also a big port. It exports a lot of coal.
Wales is a very popular place for spending holidays. Every year, thousands of people take their holidays at the seaside. If they prefer, they enjoy peace in villages far from town life. Some people choose Showdonia. This is a national park around Showdon, the highest peak in the Welsh mountains, and it is ideal for walking or hiking holidays. Wales is a Land of Song. The Welsh people are famous for their good voices and it is difficult to find a village where there is not at least one choir. Singers, dancers, musicians and poets come from all over the world to compete for the music festivals in Wales. They often wear their national dress- a tall black hat, a red skirt and a white apron. In summer, the streets of this small country are full of visitors speaking many languages. One of the foreign languages heard will be English, because in North Wales many of the people speak Welsh as their native language, but many more who use English can understand Welsh as well. The Welsh people are proud of their national language. They now use and teach their national languages in many of their school.
