Hello, People of Thailand!
Whatever country we come from, whatever colour our skin is, we all have one thing in
common: weare all people of the world.
Thailand is a beautiful country with a rich culture, just south of China. People call it the
jewel of south-east Asia for a good reason. Its tropical climate, white sandy beaches and
ancient templesmake it a perfect holiday destination. What makes it really special, though, is
its people.
Thai people are good-looking. They are short with delicate features. They have got black hair,
dark eyes and light brown skin. The Thais are friendly people who are well known for being
generous and kind. „We are happy people who have strong wills and are especially proud of our
history,“ says
Kasem from Bangkok.
Most people in Thailand live in villages. A typical Thai village consists of wooden houses, a
school and a Buddhist temple. Most of the people in the villages are farmers and fishermen.
The men usually work in the fields or catch fish in the rivers, and the women plant the crops.
Family life is very important in Thailand, and families often eat together. Thai food is very
spicy and includes curries, fish, seafood, soups and noodles. „We eat rice with our meals and
use a lot of strong spices in our cooking,“ explains Kasem.
Thai people love to enjoy themselves. Popular free-time activities include Thai boxing and
watching traditional dance shows. Thais also celebrate many festivals throughout the year. „My
favourite holiday is Surin, in November, when we always have elephant football matches,“ says
Kasem.
Thailand is a wonderful country. Its fascinating sights, rich cultural history and warm-hearted
peoplemake it unique.

and I haven’t visited the Egyptian Museum. We are going on a boat trip tomorrow and we are
going to visit the museum one of these days to see the exhibits. We are also going to visit Luxor.

Reading Task 5
Read the report and then mark the sentences below: "True" or"False".
Introduction
The purpose of this report is to assess the new Blue Moon restaurant in Abbington’s city
centre,which I visited on 14th May.
Food and Prices

The menu at the Blue Moon is rather boring for vegetarians as there are only a few salad and
pasta dishes to choose from. However, there are plenty of delicious dishes for those who eat
meat. I ordered the grilled chicken with Basmati rice. The chicken was very tasty, but the rice
was rather cold. I also thought that the Blue Moon was rather expensive.
Service
The staff at the Blue Moon was friendly and helpful. Even though my guest and I asked a lot
of questions, our waiter remained polite and patiently explained many dishes to us. Although
it wasvery busy on the night I visited the Blue Moon, the service was still fast.
Atmosphere
The comfortable seating, lovely furnishings and live piano music helped to give the Blue
Moon a relaxing atmosphere. The excellent food and service definitely made our evening
pleasurable.
Conclusion
The new Blue Moon restaurant in Abbington’s city centre is, on the whole, a wonderful place to
dine. However, I think the manager should make a few changes. Firstly, she should have a wider
selection of vegetarian dishes, so that all customers are satisfied. Also she should make sure that
all hot dishes are served hot.
Finally, she should lower the prices to give everyone a chance to visit this fabulous new restaurant.
1. The menu is great for vegetarians.
❏ True
❏ False
2. The restaurant was rather expensive.
❏ True
❏ False
3. The staff was rude.
❏ True
❏ False
4. The restaurant is a wonderful place to dine
❏ True
❏ False
5. All hot dishes were served hot.
❏ True
❏ False
