Ex.3. Watch the film once more and tell in Russian what places the following statements refer to

v This square was transformed into a battle field when in 1989 a peaceful students’ and workers’ demonstration was suppressed by the army.

v The entry to this part of the city was forbidden for guests. Any person trying to enter this part of the city was executed. It was opened to the public in 1912.

v Remarkable ritual is taking place in front of this building. A pianist is welcoming guests to this building. Very rich people are regular clients here.

v It is the final destination of the journey. It is a city of skyscrapers. It is one of the major financial centers in the world. Last century the English used this territory as the base for opium trade. The Chinese didn’t like it and declared an anti-opium war, but they lost this territory to Great Britain in this war. The Chinese leased this place to the British under duration of 99 years. This term ended in 1997; at present the territory is under Chinese rule. The Chinese-British declaration guarantees that this place continues its capitalist development for at least 50 years.
