Holidays and their symbols
People of each country have a lot of holidays. Some holidays are public, some are religious. All these holidays are part of our culture. Holidays are always fun. We usually prepare a lot of presents and write greeting cards to congratulate our friends and relatives. All the greeting cards have pictures — symbols of every holіday. You can often see a nice cake and flowers on the cards, congratulating with birthday, and pictures of hearts on St Valentine’s cards. New Year’s tree and candles are the symbols of New Year. Santa Claus and a red stocking are the symbols of Christmas. Children prepare stockings so that Santa could put presents in them. Beautifully coloured eggs are the symbol of Easter. Pumpkin with cut eyes and mouth is the symbol of Halloween, and a roast turkey is the symbol of Thanksgiving Day in America. Spring flowers are usually in the pictures which we prepare for Mother’s Day. Be careful when you choose the greeting card, don’t mix up.

Gulliver was born in the large family of a farmer. At school the boy learned well, so his father sent him to the university, for three years. When the young man left the university, he worked with a doctor and learned the doctor's profession. Gulliver decided to learn navigation, too. After four years he began to work on the ship as a ship’s doctor. One day, when the ship was at the sea for a long
time, there was a great storm. The ship broke to pieces and only six people got into a small boat. The men were
tired and couldn’t find water. Soon the boat turned over and the men were in the water. Five of them were drowned.
But Gulliver swam well, and when he saw the shore, he swam to it. He got out of the water and slept on the shore
for many hours. When Gulliver woke up, he found that he was in a country where very, very small people lived. The name of the country was Lilliput. The little people were afraid of the Man — Mountain, as they named Gulliver. When they saw that Gulliver was a kind man, they let him go free. Gulliver lived in the
country for two years and then came back to England.
