Текст аудирования:
This is what Irene Slatter, a teacher of Russian from England, writes about travelling to Russia.
There are various ways to travel to Russia. Flying is the quickest way, but if you have more time, you may consider a train journey, which takes about two-and-a-half days. There are also Russian ships, which in Europe leave from Copenhagen, Stockholm or Helsinki; this is a very different sort of journey which can be very interesting and a good introduction to Russian food.
On arrival in Russia, the traveller is supposed to fill in a customs declaration which should be done very carefully. You hand the form in to the customs officer, who usually stamps it as correct and hands it back to you. Keep it in a safe place, for you will need it on your way back from the country.
If you want to “discover” Russia, there are various options. You can go as an individual tourist. Your travel agent will book a hotel for you and think over the details of your travel. This is usually a very expensive option.
Alternatively, as most people do, you can go as a member of an organized group, where you pay a sum of money to the travel firm and everything is done for you. This is by far the easiest and most popular way to travel to Russia.
It is helpful if a visitor to Russia can read and speak a few common phrases of Russian. On the other hand, many Russians, especially the younger generations, speak European languages and are very helpful to foreigners.
Do not be discouraged if officials at airports and customs points seem unfriendly and unhelpful. Officials in such jobs are not noted for their welcoming friendliness anywhere. Individually, Russians are very relaxed and welcoming by nature. In fact, it is sometimes said inside Russia that hospitality is a Russian invention!
