…British Isles.
…British Isles lie off…north-west coast of…continental Europe. They are made up of…Great Britain (…England,…Scotland and…Wales) and…Ireland (…Northern Ireland and…Independent Irish Republic) and about 5,500 smaller islands. The territory of…British Islands is 244,000 square kilometers.
We will not find…high mountains or…large plains in…Britain. Everything occupies little place. The nature, it seems, has carefully adapted things - …mountains, …plains,…rivers, …lakes – to the size of…island itself. …mountain 12,000 feet high would be ..wonder there. So would be …plain 400 miles long,…river as wide and deep as…Mississippi. Most of …plains lie to…east; …west is hilly or mountainous. …mountains even in the highest part of…England are only a little over 3,000 feet high. . …highest mountain in…British Isles is …Ben Nevis in …Scotland, 4,406 feet high. …longest river is …Severn, about 2000 miles long. …highest waterfall is 370 feet high. Often visitors who have only a few days to spend see only…Lowland England, and so they can’t see…contrasts between… wild fiords of…Scotland, …rocks of…North Wales, …smiling orchardland of…Kent, and…open moorland of…Sutherland. These contrasts are often not far from…big cities.
…climate of…British Isles is influenced by…Atlantic Ocean. …winters are not so cold as they can be on…continent, but…summers are not so warm as they are usually on…other side of…Channel. So, …Great Britain has…mild climate, but because of…length of…British Isles…temperatures differ from…district to…district. …North is certainly colder than…South, but in …winter…coldest districts are…eastern ones. …climate here is more like that in…Central Europe. On the whole…weather changes very often and there are…few sunny days. Britain has…rain in every month of…year. …rainiest months in …Britain are…November, …January, and…February. Usually there is…little snow in…winter.
