Az igaz, hogy a sportkocsit nem az angolok találták fel, ám mégis Anglia volt az els? ország, ahol sok és olcsó ilyen autót gyártottak. A '30-as években az MG, aZ '50-60-as években pedig az Austin-Healey, a Jaguar és az MG & Triumph mindent megtett azokért az autóbolondokért, akik szeretik, ha lobog a hajuk a hajuk a szélben. Az els? sportautók kicsik, fürgék, merész vonalvezetés?ek voltak és a fény?zés minden kellékével ellátták ?ket. Költségcsökkentés céljából a futóm?vet nagyrészt a szériakocsikból vették át, persze kissé módosítva. Az MG-vel rivalizálva a Singer kihozta a Le Mans modelleket, a Triumph pedig gyártott néhány csinos Southern Crosst, de az áraikkal már baj volt. S az olyan márkák, mint a Fraser Nash, az Aston Martin és a Lagonda, még azoknál is drágábbak is voltak. Biztos sokan éltek volna az ,autó hitel vagy autófinanszírozás lehet?ségével, hogy könnyebben hozzájuthassanak h?náhított álomautóikhoz!
I suppose the main causes for hunger are partly bad geographical conditions like droughts, natural catastrophes like floods and earthquakes, and partly the high amount of debts to other countries. There is also armed fighting, which makes the situation even worse.
In fact there is not much we can do to help the Third World. There are charitable organisations to raise money for them, there are emergency relief programmes as well as long-term aid projects to help them but still a lot has to be done to stop so many people dying of hunger day by day.
I live in the country and I don't think it is a privilege to live in a town. I wouldn't move to one for all the tea in China.The place where I live is a long way off from the capital, it is a remote, out-of the way village whose population is about 800.The people here are very friendly(except, my neighbour) and are close to nature.I appreciate the gentle pace of living and clean atmosphere.In the town people lose touch with nature, they rush to work in the morning and come home dead tired in the evening.I admit there are more shops in a town but we are on very friendly terms with the shopkeepers and they always sell us fresh food and meat. We grow our vegetables ourselves and gardening is another relaxing form of entertainment. The nearest town is about 50 kilometres away and if we need some other kinds of entertainment we can easily reach it by auto. In fact some of my friends work there and are very unhappy about having to commute. Of course, there are disadvantages of village life too. Services are less efficient and we have only got one school and one general practitioner. Our streets are not all tarmacked and on a rainy day one can easily get stuck in the mud.At the same time the people here are much healthier than town people. If I were offered a flat in a town I would refuse to move there. Nothing can be compared with the sight of green trees and pastures, the sound of twittering birds and silent nights when the cock crow is the first sound that disturbs serenity. All this can work wonders for people's mental and physical well-being, while in a town there is crowd, noise and pollution.
