    Reading Practice:

    Match each paragraph with the most suitable title. There are two titles you do not
    need to use. 0 is the example.

    Ireland is ranked friendliest place in the world


    A. Irish oral tradition.

    B. British attitude towards the Irish.

    C. Good humour after hard times.

    D. More than you can expect.

    E. The biggest attraction in Ireland.

    F. What the Irish think of Britain.

    G. Having a nice time.

    H. Three reasons to visit Ireland.

    0. The British have rarely been complimentary about the Irish down the centuries.
    There have been the Irish jokes, insulting nicknames and the attitude that much that
    went on the neighbouring island was simply unacceptable. B (Example).

    1. Now it turns out that the friendliest country in the world is Ireland. The prestigious
    British travel guide Lonely Planet reckons that the island’s inhabitants have reverted
    to what they do best – drinking good liquor, making strangers feel at home and having
    fun.

    2. The 2008 edition of The Lonely Planet Bluelist – a guide to places you should think
    about visiting – says: “Centuries of turmoil, conquest, famine and subsequent
    immigration have left them with a deliciously dark sense of humour and a welcoming
    attitude towards strangers.”

    3. “That famous ability of the Irish means you’re always having fun. A cautious
    optimism reigns supreme, infecting the land once again with the sense that anything is
    possible.”

    4. The verdict was greeted triumphantly by tourism officials yesterday. Lawrence


    Bate, of Tourism Ireland, said: “We are delighted to have this endorsement of
    thousands of Lonely Planet readers. People have expectations that are far and away
    exceeded when they visit Ireland.”
    5. The Irish have further reason to smile after claiming a place in the Lonely Planet
    list of the world’s 10 best brewery headquarters, leased by Arthur Guinness in 1759.
    “If you don’t know what it is that makes the Guinness brewery Ireland’s number one
    visitor attraction, you must be under 18,” the book says.

    Writing Practice:

    Ireland. Write a small article (about 150-200 words), reciting your trip, the reason you
