This year we studied the United Kingdom.
Our teacher' s presentation
The UK is made up of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.Great Britain is made up of England, Wales and Scotland.
The UK is between the North Atlantic Ocean and the
North Sea, and it is separated by northwest coast of France by the English
Channel. The Channel Tunnel, beneath the English Channel, now links the UK with
France.
The
capital of England and of the UK is London. It is built on the River Thames.
The UK Landscape is very varied. Scotland and Wales are the most mountainous parts
of the UK. The Pennine, runs down the centre of northern England,
but most of the UK is made up of hills.
The Uk's climate is very changeable because of the
surrounding sea. The main influence on British climate is the proximity to the
Atlantic Ocean, the northern latitude, and the warming of the waters around the
land by the Gulf Stream (a warm current of the northern Atlantic Ocean).
In general there are warm summers and cool
winters. However, summers are cooler than those on the continent
and winters are milder.
