Задание 1. Прочитайте и переведите текст и определите, правдивыми или ложными являются утверждения.
The Eden Project, near St Austell, is not just one of Cornwall's major tourist attractions. It is now, despite only being a few years old, one of the most popular attractions in the whole of the UK. Over a million people visit the Eden Project each year.
Tim Smit was the person responsible for turning the Eden Project from a dream into a reality. Built on the site of an old china clay quarry, the Eden Project currently consists of a Visitor Centre, which includes a cafe, gift shops and exhibition space, and two 'biomes'. Each biome is an enormous greenhouse. And they are enormous! The Humid Tropics biome, which contains plants and trees from tropical countries, is 100 metres wide, 200 metres long and 55 metres high. The second biome, which is called the Warm Temperate biome, is slightly smaller but still extremely impressive, being 65 metres wide, 135 metres long and 35 metres high. Visitors walk through the biomes looking at the thousands of plants and trees they contain. Information is given about each plant. The biomes also contain sculptures, waterfalls and birds and insects from the same environments that the plants come from.
