VII.
T. What is interesting about the English Channel? Read the text about the Channel tunnel. Do the work in variants and levels.
The Channel tunnel
Throughout history, people have dreamt about link between England and France. Even
Napoleon had a plan to dig a tunnel and conquer England. One of the first people who
tried to dig a tunnel under the Channel was a French mining engineer called Albert
Mathieu. His tunnel failed.
In 1881, Colonel Beamont and Captain English from Britain also tried to dig a tunnel.
Their tunnel went six kilometers out into the Channel. Queen Victoria stopped them and
said it was dangerous to have a link with France. It was a very good tunnel, though, and
it still survives today.
The new tunnel (ready in 1993) is, in fact, three tunnels – two for trains and a
“service tunnel” for ventilation and for men who maintain the tunnels. The tunnels are
50 kilometres long, 40 metres under water. 40 kilometres of tunnel are under the sea
itself. They are the longest undersea tunnels in the world. Trains travel through the
tunnels at 160 km/h. People in cars drive their cars onto special “shuttle”trains and
the trains take them through the tunnel. Each train takes 1500 people and there are trains
every 10 minutes.
A special radio station called Channel Channel has started, because it is
impossible to receive normal radio signals when you are under the sea. The station
broadcasts news to keep people up-to-date with the “world outside” while they are in
the tunnel. (Приложение 3)
