The United States of America 
The United State of America lies in the central part of the North American 
continent with the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the Pacific to the west, Canada to the 
north, and Mexico and the Gulf(1) of Mexico to the south. The USA is one of the 
biggest countries in the world. The size of its territory places is the fourth in the 
world. Its population is over 240 million. The USA is a country, having an 
interesting history. It was originally populated (2)by different Indian tribes. In the 
17th century European colonies were founded on its territory. But on July 4, 1776 
the united colonies became independent of Great Britain and new state(3) called 
the USA was proclaimed. The further development (4) of the country was hundred 
by a civil war (5)between the North and Southern States which ended in 1865 and 
the unity of the nation was not impaired(6). During the period of its development 
the USA achieved great, successes in all fields of life – in industry, agriculture and 
art. With radical changes in production methods the productivity of labour (7) is 
increasing (8) in the country. Computers are widely used in many spheres of 
national economy and social life. It is having profound (9)economic and social 
effects. There is a variety of natural resources in the country, including the water 
recourses. The greatest rivers of the USA are the Mississippi, «the father of 
waters», the Colorado and the Columbia. One of the most widely known natural 
wonders in America is Niagara Falls, which is situated on the New York Central 
Lines, between New York and Chicago. Niagara is an Indian word and means 
―roaring waters(10)‖. The fall is of great industrial importance. The USA, being a 
federation of states, consists of 50 states and the District Columbia. The terms 
(11)Washington and District of Columbia are practically synonymous. The District 
is named in honour of Columbus. The President of the USA elected for four years 
in the head of the government. All legislative (12)power belongs to Congress, 
consisting of two Houses the Senate and the House of Representatives. The USA is 
developing as a capitalist state. Two main bourgeois(13) parties dominate(14) the 
political scene of the USA. They are: the Democratic Party founded in 1783 and 
the Republican Party founded in 1854. The capital of the USA is Washington. The 
USA is a federal republic. The President is elected for four years, and is the head 
of state and of the government. Congress consists of two houses: the House of 
Representatives and the Senate. Elections to the House of Representatives are held 
every two years, when the whole House of Representatives is replaced. The Senate 
consists of two senators from each state, elected for six years. One third of the 
Senate is replaced every two years. A senator must be 30 years old, nine years a 
citizen and an inhabitant (14) of the state which elects him. The two main political 
parties are the Republicans and the Democrats. There is little difference between 
their programs in national policies.
