Сегодня мы поработаем с текстом о промышленности и экономике в целом в Великобритании и закрепим новую лексику в упражнениях.

Прочитайте текст. (Постарайтесь сделать это без словаря. Вам нужно общее понимание текста.)

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is located in the North West of Europe. It is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the English Channel and the North Sea. The geographical position has made the U.K. a commercial and maritime power.

Nowadays Great Britain is one of the highly developed mixed private-and public enterprise economies. The state sector was reduced during the 1980s and 1990s owing to the policies of privatization or denationalization of publicly owned corporations. There was also an improvement in standard of living. Unemployment and inflation rates were gradually reduced but remained high. The British government controls the production of coal, steel and ships; it also runs certain utilities, the railway and most civil aviation.

Britain lives by industry and trade. The country is one of the world’s biggest importers of food and raw materials. In return Britain exports its manufactured goods such as china, automobiles and other vehicles, wooden goods, steel, electrical and mechanical machinery, tractors, instruments, chemical and petrochemical goods and petroleum. Invisible exports – shipping, insurance, aviation, tourism, etc. – earn nearly as much as commodity exports. The USA, Canada, Australia, India, New Zealand and the Federal Republic of Germany are among Britain’s main trading partners.

Britain is a major financial and commercial centre of the capitalist world. With its many famous institutions such as the Bank of England, the Stock Exchange and Lloyd’s, and its international markets for such commodities as rubber, metals and tea the City of London has always been and still remains the most important financial and commercial centre in the world.

Britain has always been a manufacturing country. Manufacturing industries account for one-fifth of the GNP(Gross National Product – валовой национальный продукт). Most of the companies in industry are small, though companies with 500 or more employees employ a larger percentage of the work force. Major manufactures include motor vehicles, aerospace equipment, electronic data processing and telecommunication equipment, metal goods, instruments, petrochemicals and other chemicals. High-technology industries are being intensively developed now.

Agriculture accounts for less than 2 percent of the GNP and employs about 2 percent of the work force. Farming is highly mechanized though farms are not very large, and is dominated by raising of sheep and cattle. Chief crops include barley, wheat, sugar beets, and potatoes. The United Kingdom is not self-sufficient and it imports a lot of food products.

The extracting industry accounts for approximately 6 percent of the GNP but employs less than 1 percent of the work force. Production from oil fields in the North Sea has allowed the United Kingdom to become self-sufficient in petroleum. The United Kingdom’s coal industry, despite its steady decline since the early 1950s remains one of the largest and the most technologically advanced in Europe.

Just under half of the total population is in the labour force. The highest proportion of employees (more than two-thirds) are in the service sectors, financial services and distribution. Manufacturing, although it has declined, employs more than one-fifth of all workers. Smaller numbers are in construction, energy, agriculture, forestry and fishing.

Though Great Britain has lost its former position as the leading industrial nation of the world it still ranks among the top industrial countries in growth rates, productivity and competitiveness. The United Kingdom is the 5^th in size of its GNP among capitalist countries of the world.
