EX3.READ AND TRANSLATE THE TEXT: «ULYANOVSK».

I live in Ulyanovsk. It is quite an old town. It was founded in the middle of the 17-th century in 1648 by Bogdan Chitrovo. At that time its name was Simbirsk. Our town is famous for the fact, that V.I.Lenin was born here. The Ulyanov s family lived in our town for a long time. So Simbirsk was renamed in Ulyanovsk in 1924 after Lenin s death.

Our town is worth seeing. There are many monuments in honour of V.I.Lenin and many tourists visit them with great pleasure, especially the Lenin Memorial, which was built in 1970.

In front of the Memorial one can visit a house, where Volodya Ulyanov was born.

Tourists of our town visit the house in Lenin Street, where the Ulyanovs family lived and I think I would show all these sights to our guests.

Ulyanovsk is situated on the both banks of the Volga river. It is the longest river in Europe. My favourite place in our town is embankment of the river. It is so pleasant to stand at the very top of it and watch the beauty of the river.

The Lenin Memorial, the new building of the Pedagogical University, the Museum of Regional Studies form the harmonious complex and the embankment of the river attaches special colour to it. There are many beautiful trees, flowers, bushes there and young people like to walk there.

I think Ulyanovsk is rather big industrial centre.

There are many plants here. The famous «AVTOUAZ» produces a lot of good cars, which are known all over Russia. “Volzhanka” s sweets get a lot of prizes for their quality. I am fond of its producion very much. “AVIASTAR” is famous all over the world for its producing of transport planes.

Our town is the town of youth. There are many universities, schools, technical schools and colleges in Ulyanovsk. A lot of pupils and students get their knowledge there.

I can add I want our ton to be nice, clean and always beautiful.
