1 Look at the map and pictures. Where is Barrow? What do you think the weather is like there?

Living in Barrow, Alaska

I'm John, from Barrow in Alaska, which is the most northern town in the USA. So what's it like living here? Well, in November, the sun goes down and it doesn't come up again until January. That means it's dark for 65 days. Of course, these are the coldest months of the year, even the highest temperature is below zero! It's also the most boring time of the year, we can't go out without our parents because it's too dark. Summer is better. In May, the sun stays up so there's no night for 85 days.

Why don't we move somewhere warmer? We love living here. I know everyone in the town, I love the school and we've got some amazing traditions and festivals. The best is Nalukataq in the spring when the fishermen return to our town with whale meat. Then, we make a special blanket. It's huge. A dancer stands in the middle of the blanket and we throw him or her into the air. When the dancer is in the air, they throw sweets to the children. It's fantastic - you should come and join us next year!

FACT! The coldest inhabited place on Earth is Oymyakon in North East Russia. On 6 February 1933, it was -67.7o C. That's freezing!

1. Посмотрите на карту и картинки. Где находится Барроу? Как вы думаете, какая там погода?

Ответ:

According to the map and the text, Barrow is the most northern town in Alaska, USA. I think the weather there is very cold. The pictures show a lot of snow, and the text says that in winter the temperature is below zero and it's dark for 65 days. In summer, the sun stays up for 85 days.

(Согласно карте и тексту, Барроу — это самый северный город на Аляске, США. Я думаю, погода там очень холодная. На картинках много снега, а в тексте говорится, что зимой температура опускается ниже нуля и темнота длится 65 дней. Летом солнце не заходит 85 дней.)
