ПрочитайтетекстпроОмск. OMSK A vast area known as Western Siberia lies to the east of the Urals. Omsk Region with Omsk as a center covers nearly a quarter of its territory. Nowadays' Omsk is a large city. It stands on the rivers Irtysh and Om. The climate is severe continental. The main water artery is the Irtysh River which flows through the city and gets frozen in winter up to late spring. The Irtysh River divides Omsk into two parts known as the Left Bank and the Right Bank. In the earlier part of the 20th century, Omsk was a small, sleepy, provincial town. The famous Russian writer F.M. Dostoyevsky described it as small and nasty. In 1716 the Omsk fortress was built at the mouth of the Om River. Its founder was Lieutenant colonel Buchholtz. From the beginning Omsk played a great role in the development of Siberia. With the construction of the railway in 1899 Omsk became a centre of transport, trade and agriculture. Steamship navigation was opened on the Irtysh River and various industries grew. In 1861 Omsk was connected with Orenburg by the telegraph. Local merchants were expanding during that period. The region exported grain, butter, meat, fish, furs and leather. The town was on the rise. One of the important pages in the history of our city is the Civil War during which Admiral Kolchak proclaimed Omsk the capital of Siberia. In 1919 the Soviet Power was established in Omsk. By 1934 the city had become one of the biggest regional centres in Russia stretching from Kazakhstan in the south to the Arctic Ocean in the north. Omsk boomed during World War II when many industrial enterprises were evacuated to it from the western part of the former Soviet Union thus increasing the industrial potential of the area. In the 50s and 60s an oil refinery and plants manufacturing military and heavy industrial equipment were built. Today they form the backbone of Omsk industry. Today's Omsk is an important industrial, cultural and educational centre. The leaders of Omsk exports are enterprises of refining, chemical, petrochemical, aerospace and agricultural industries. Omsk is a nice city. It has a lot of parks and squares to have rest in. Omsk is pretty green: almost all the streets are lined with bushes and trees. Omsk used to be called a garden-city and it can be called so today, for sure. The main streets are getting wider and wider. Omsk is divided into several districts. Its boundaries spread more and more as new housing blocks appear rapidly in the outskirts of the city. Some houses in the centre are small, one- or two-storied buildings. Big buildings are usually various offices. But small houses are gradually pulled down and big modern multi-storied buildings appear on their places. The city of Omsk includes the suburbs and much land that still looks more rural than urban. One must confess that Omsk is being changed: modern trade centres built in unusual and up-today style appear here and there, old buildings are being reconstructed into modern ones in glass and steel, little shops and boutiques can be seen, little cosy cafes and restaurants are glad to meet you and your friends. Omsk is a city of students. There are Academies, Universities, Institutes and many special secondary schools in the city.There are a lot of students from all over the country especially from the north cities, as well as from the other countries (the Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia, Korea, Belarus, the Ukraine, etc.), who come to study in Omsk. Omsk is not only a provider of employment for the region. It is a center of entertainment, culture, shopping and sport. There are many theatres in Omsk: the most popular - the Drama Theatre, the Music Theatre, the Theatre for Young Spectators, the Puppet Theatre “Harlequin”, the Fifth Theatre, etc. We also have the Omsk Philharmonic Company which has a great popularity both in Russia and abroad. Citizens of Omsk are proud of their Folk Choir, symphony orchestra, a nice Concert Hall and wonderful museums. The two branches of power of the Omsk region are legislative and executive ones. The former is the Legislative Council and n is the Administration of the Omsk region. In 1992 the German District was founded. Now the population of Omsk is over 1 million people and the population of the Omsk region is over 2 million people. 3. Ответьте на вопросы, используя информацию в тексте.
