1. England was a part of

the Roman Empire.

2. The wall went from one side of England to the another.

3. Building the wall helped to stop the soldiers from thinking about home.

4. The wall showed how powerful the Roman people were.

5. None ( ничего ) of the wall has survived to the present day.

6. There is a large collection of Roman objects at Chesters House.

In 122 AD, the Roman Empire stretched across Europe, the Middle East and north Africa. In Britain, it reached the far north of England. However, many Scottish tribes ( племена ) didn’t want the Romans. So, in that year, Emperor Hadrian decided to build a huge wall across the island.

The wall ran across England, from the west to the east – 73 miles in total. It was built by Roman soldiers, and was a useful way of keeping them busy. To stop them missing home too much, it was important to give them something to do, and building a ten-foot-wall certainly did that. Local people also benefited, as the soldiers working on the wall needed to buy some tools ( инструменты ). It took six years to build the wall and it was a clear symbol of the strength of the Romans.

Today, this wall is known as Hadrian’s Wall and, though most of it has disappeared, it is still possible to see parts of it. The Romans built forts along the wall for the men to live in and some of these buildings have survived. The best example is the fort at Chesters House on the River Tyne, in an area which the Romans called Cilurnum. The soldiers living here did not come from Rome. They also came from modern-day Germany and areas of central Europe, which at the time the wall was built were under Roman control. Visitors to the fort today can see a small number of everyday objects in the museum and get an idea of what life was like in the Roman world.

2. The Incan Empire included all the territory of modern Chile.

3. The Incas lived in a simple society and only had basic skills.

4. We know why the Incas disappeared.

5. Pizzarro asked Atahualpa to join his army.

6. The Spanish defeated the Incas because they had better weapons.

High in the mountains of Peru can be found the ruins of the city of Machu Picchu. It was built in 1440. People lived there for nearly a hundred years, then it was forgotten until it was discovered in 1911. What is the story behind this amazing “lost city”?

Once there lived people called the Incas. The Incas started as a small group of people in the 12 th century AD. From the middle of the 15 th century the Incas began to take control of other areas. They built a large empire, which included the modern-day countries of Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and parts of Argentina, Chile and Colombia. They had a very developed society and were efficient builders, engineers, artists and farmers. There was one reason why they never grew further as a civilization and why they disappeared: the Spanish arrived in South America in 1532.

Francisco Pizzarro, a Spanish explorer, landed in Peru with two hundred men to invade the Incas. He invited the ruler of the Incas, Atahualpa, to a meeting and then captured him, later killing him and many members of the royal family. More people joined Pizzarro’s army and the Incas were gradually defeated. They lasted for 40 years and fought against the Spanish, but the Incas couldn’t beat the European technology. They had never seen guns and cannons and had nothing similar. The last Inca leader, Tupac Amaru, was finally killed in 1472.

When the Incas left Machu Picchu, nobody else knew it was there. In 1911, an American historian Hiram Bingham discovered this place. Today, so maby tourists visit Machu Picchu each year that there is a real chance that this amazing place could be damaged.
