The English had visited America at different times starting from the 15th century. Among them were John Cabot (1498), Sir Francis Drake (1577), Sir Humphrey Gilbert (1583) and Sir Walter Raleigh (1585).
The first successful English colony was founded in 1607 by a group of Englishmen who sailed to Virginia. They hoped to find riches. 105 men (there were no women or children at first) landed at a place they called Jamestown, after England’s King James I. They never found gold but the settlement survived partly with the help of Indians, partly because of their strong will and partly because they found tobacco which they sold to England at a very good price.
When King James I was rulling the country, many Englishmen did not like him. Many people also did not like the Church of England. That is why they wanted to leave the country. Puritans wanted to find religious freedom from the Church of England somewhere far away.
In 1620 some English families (about one hundred people) formed the group which they called the London Company. They left England from Plymouth on board the ship called Mayflower and sailed to America. Their harsh journey lasted for seven long weeks.
It was already winter when the ship reached the shores of America. The weather was terrible with rain and cold wind. First, 16 men landed and went ashore. They found some corn and brought it to the ship. The corn was left on that coast by the Indians.
Next day was Sunday. So, all the passengers of the ship had a rest. On Monday women went ashore to wash their clothes. Now in America Monday is "a wash-day".
Next five weeks men from the Mayflower left the ship and looked for a good place where they could live. The weather was getting colder and more and more people fell ill.
Finally, they found a place that seemed suitable. There was everything they needed — forests, fields, a small river and a harbour for ships. They started to build a village there which they later called New Plymouth.
King James I himself gave the Pilgrims the right to establish their own colony.
Horror films! I'm trembling with fear even when I hear that! I hate horrors in fact. Not because I'm too afraid of them but because I don't find any sense in these films. They make me feel sick after all. But some people like them. Different strokes for different folks as it is said. Though there was one film that I remembered. It's called "The ring". I've seen it some times and first time was in the cinema. I was there with the friends of mine. They were really scared, I would say. They sat parallized, not breathing, and when it was going to be the most frightful moment in the film I turned silently to one of them and said something in a fast way just to scare them. They jumped up to the ceiling, I bet. I liked it most of all. But the film was so-so. As for me, horrors don't impress me as I have already said and prefer more realistic films, which are closer to our life, where there's a bit of sense though.
