Номер 2, страница 40, часть 2 - гдз по английскому языку 11 класс учебник Демченко, Бушуева

2. a. Read and suggest your own way of explaining where Belarus is located. Work in pairs. Choose the better one to present for the rest of the class.

Surprisingly, one of the most popular searches on the Internet, related to Belarus, is the question “Where is Belarus?” or “Belarus map”. Thinking about it, let us ask ourselves if it is possible or if it is correct to give one definite answer, especially if we bear in mind that our mission is to unveil this terra incognita for tens of thousands, or maybe hundreds of thousands or perhaps, millions of Internet users. Belarus is a unique phenomenon, and amazingly manifold at the same time, especially its people, who are friendly, tolerant, and hospitable.

b. Can you explain where Belarus is geographically? Listen to each other in pairs.

c. 🎧 Listen to the answer (ex. 2b) and see whose explanation was closer to the recorded one.
