Lessons 1-2

Unit 18                                                            City and Country

 

Lessons 1-2

A. Listen, read and say.

 

 

City streets and country roads by 

Eleanor Farjeon

 

The city has streets-

But the country has roads.

In the country one meets

Blue carts with their loads

Of sweet-smelling hay, 

And mangolds, and grain.

Oh, take me away 

To the country again!

 

 

 

In the city one sees

Big trams rattle by, 

And the breath of the chimneys

That blot out the sky.

And all down the pavements 

Stiff lamp-posts one sees-

But the country has hedgerows,

The country has trees.

As sweet as the sun 

In the country is rain:

Oh, take me away

To the country again!
