A. An important part of the work of the Queen and the Royal Family is to support and encourage
public and voluntary service. One of the ways in which they do this is through association with
charities. These include well-known charities such as the British Red Cross and new, smaller
charities like Kids Company. About 3,000 organizations list a member of the Royal Family as
patron or president
B. The Queen’s husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, has played an important role in
many aspects of national life. For example, from 1961 to 1982, he was President of the World
Wildlife Fund, which supports the conservation, research and restoration of the environment.
During his work, Prince Philip visited the fund’s projects in over 40 countries on 5 continents
C. Due to the great number of people who wish to contact the Royal Family, communication is
only possible via letter. Members of the Royal Family cannot be contacted directly by email or
telephone. To open the letter, people should address the Queen with the formal address 'Madam'
and close the letter with the form 'I have the honour to be, Madam, Your Majesty's obedient
servant'.
D. Members of the Royal Family carry out nearly 3,000 official journeys in the United Kingdom
and overseas every year. Over five decades the Queen has used every possible form of
transportation – from elephant to barge. But most Royal journeys use more typical forms of
transportation: traditional carriages for ceremonial occasions, the Royal Train and helicopter for
visits in the UK, and plane for overseas visits.
E. Visiting other countries, the Queen often gets presents. It is a long-standing tradition. In 1972,
for example, Her Majesty received a collection of shells from the Seychelles and in 1991 she was
presented with a pair of cowboy boots during her visit to the United States of America. The
Queen often receives ‘live’ animals – from giraffes to giant turtles and cheetahs.
F. The Royal Collection of stamps is said to be one of the greatest collections of Great Britain
and the Commonwealth. From the early nineteenth century, British monarchs continued to
preserve, develop and enjoy the Royal Collection. Today the Collection continues to grow. It
includes lots of priceless exhibits. Unlike the Crown Jewels and the Royal residences, the Royal
Collection of stamps is privately owned by the Queen.
G. With tea, cakes and a beautiful garden to stroll in, garden parties are among the most relaxed
and informal Royal events when over 30,000 people attend. Garden parties have been held at
Buckingham Palace since the 1860s, when Queen Victoria introduced what were known as
'breakfasts'. Nowadays they are attended by people from different social groups.

Florence Nightingale
Florence Nightingale was a celebrated English nurse and writer. According to a survey,
British people consider her to be one of the most famous British persons along with outstanding
scientists, writers and politicians.
She was born into a rich, upper-class family in 1820, in Italy. She got her name Florence
after the city of her birth, as there was a tradition in her family to name the children in honour of
the city they were born in. She got an all-round education and according to the family’s status
Florence was expected to become a faithful wife and attentive mother.
However, in 1844 Florence decided to become a nurse, despite the intense anger and
distress of her mother and sister. At that time nursing was seen as a job that needed neither
education nor special medical skills.
In 1854 the Crimean War broke out and Florence Nightingale offered her services to the
War Office and soon left for the Crimea with thirty-eight volunteer nurses. They began their
work in the main British camp, in the hospital. Very soon Florence found out that hygiene was
neglected, and fatal infections were common. There was no equipment to cook proper food for
the patients. Florence decided to change the situation.
Nightingale managed to found a vast kitchen and a laundry. In addition to her nursing
work, she tried to organize reading and recreation rooms for the wounded soldiers. She was on
her feet for twenty hours a day and so were the other nurses. Florence was called ‘The Lady with
the Lamp’ for her habit of making rounds round the hospital at night. She checked on her
helpless patients.
Florence remained in the Crimea until 1856, then she returned to England.
In London Florence Nightingale visited Queen Victoria and persuaded the Queen of the
need to create a military hospital system. Soon Florence Nightingale set up a training school for
nurses, the first nursing school in the world. It is now called The Florence Nightingale School of
Nursing and Midwifery and is part of King's College in London. The annual International
Nurses Day is celebrated around the world on Florence’s birthday, the 12
th
of May.
In the Crimea camp, Nightingale got ‘Crimean fever’ and never fully recovered. By the
time she was 38 years old, she was seriously ill. She left her house very rarely and had to stay in
bed most of the time. Nevertheless, Florence continued her work from her bed. She wrote many
books, some of them became the base of the curriculum at the Nightingale School and other
British nursing schools.
Florence Nightingale died in London in 1910, at the age of ninety. The government
offered to bury Florence in Westminster Abbey, but her relatives did not agree. However, the
memorial service took place in St. Paul's Cathedral.
Florence Nightingale received a lot of honorable awards. Several books were written
about the life of ‘The Lady with the Lamp’ and a few films were shot about her
