Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Биболетова, Бабушис 9 класс, Дрофа:
97 Find out more about why our Motherland was originally called Great Rusl Do you think Rustask is a poetic or an historic name for our country? Does it sound respectful and proud at the same time? Write an essay about our country according to the example.
Example: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland was often known as BRITAIN. This name is historic, it sends us back to the time of the Roman invasion. The Romans gave the name of Brittania to their southern British province. Now it is used for the larger island of the British isles and even for the whole country because of the political and economic dominance of this part.
The poetic name of the country ALBION is also closely associated with the Romans, it comes from the Latin word "albus", meaninag "white" and reminds us of the white chalk cliffs around Dover on the south coast. The Romans saw the white cliffs when crossing the sea from the continent.
