6. I love ____________ Spain. I find ____________ Spanish very friendly, but I can’t say much in English is an important global language, but that doesn't mean it is easy to learn. Many experts have 
tried to make English easier to learn, but they weren’t always successful.
In 1930, Professor CK Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English. It had only 850 words (and 
just eighteen verbs) and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours. The problem was 
that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple messages, but they couldn’t 
understand the answers in 'real' English! It was also impossible to explain a word if it wasn’t in the Basic 
English word list.
RE Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of English 
was spelling, so he invented a language called AngliC. Anglic was similar to English, but with much 
simpler spelling. 'Father' became ‘faadher’ 'new' became 'nue' and 'years' became 'yeerz'. 
Unfortunately, for some students of English, Anglic never became popular.
Even easier is the language which ships’ captains use: it is called 'Seaspeak'. Seaspeak uses a few simple 
phrases for every possible situation. In Seaspeak, for example, you don’t say, 'I didn’t understand, can 
you repeat that?’ it is just, "Say again.” No more grammar!
In the age of international communication through the Internet, a new form of English might appear. A 
large number of the world’s e-mails are in English and include examples of ‘NetLingo’ like OIC (Oh, I 
see) and TTYL (Talk to you later).

 Scotland: The Land Of Legends
 If we travel all over Scotland, we can see that it consists of three main parts: Lowlands, Uplands 
and Highlands with their Grampian Mountains, where the tallest mountain peak, Ben Nevis, is located.
 You are sure to enjoy the beauty of the Scottish varied landscape: the hills, covered with purple 
heather, its beautiful lakes (here they are called lochs), its green and narrow valleys.
 The biggest and the most beautiful lake in Scotland is Loch Lomond, but the most famous one is 
Loch Ness with its mysterious monster Nessie. Nessie sometimes appears to scare the tourists but only 
in fine weather!
 But what can be more curious and attractive for tourists than a man in the kilt, playing the 
bagpipes? The Celts of Scotland made the chequered pattern of tartan - the national dress of the 
country. The earliest Scots formed themselves into clans (family groups) and the tartan became a 
symbol of the sense of kinship. There are about 300 different clans in Scotland, and each has its own 
colour and pattern of tartan together with the motto.
 Scotland is a land of many famous people: writers and poets, scientists and philosophers, such as 
Robert Burns, Arthur Conan Doyle, Alexander Graham Bell, or Alexander Fleming.
