How many species of birds are there in Australia? Name some of them. 5. How dangerous are Australian snakes? 6. What other reptiles are common there? Task 11. Read and translate WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT DOGS? Of all animals the dog is the most companionable and the one best suited to share the life and home of its master or mistress as one of the family. This is not surprising, for the dog was probably the first animal to be domesticated by man. Throughout centuries men and dogs have walked together and shared the same food and fire; hunted side by side, and the dog guarded its master's life and property. On an Egyptian tomb fresco, there is a hunter with a hound at his side painted by an unknown artist 3,400 years ago. In ancient inscriptions carved in stone about 6,000 years ago, we can read about the Pharaohs' hounds chasing gazelles and dogs guarding flocks. To those ancient people, however, the dog was more than a household pet or assistant in the chase. Egyptians worshipped him as symbolic guide and protector in the realm of the dead. They gave their god Anubis the body of a man and a doglike head. Ancient Egyptians even mummified dogs. Romans distinguished among house dogs, shepherd dogs, hunting dogs and fighting dogs. Little dogs such as Maltese and Pekingese are among the oldest of breeds, and they lived in noble homes and royal palaces from the Mediterranean to the Orient. The dingo is the oldest living race of dog. It probably entered Australia with the first men who crossed a land bridge that once linked the island-continent to Asia Task 12.Find in the text the English for: жить вместе; делить кров; есть одну пищу; вместе охотиться; охранять жизнь и имущество; надгробная фреска; древние письмена; поклоняться кому-л.; в обители мертвых; Средиземноморье; Восток.
