VI. D. Read the text Washington, D.C. (from Easy English № 92)
Washington, D.C., (D.C. stands for the District of Columbia) is the capital of the United States of America. It lies on the Potomac River between the states of Maryland and Virginia. It was chosen as the capital in 1790, and the headquarters of the president and Congress moved there a few years later.
Today it is a major cultural centre, home to seven universities, including Georgetown University and Howard University, as well as important national monuments like the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, and the Lincoln Memorial. Of course, Washington, D.C.’s most famous buildings are the White House, which dates back to the end of the 18th century and the official residence of the U.S. president, and the Capitol (Капитолий - здание конгресса США) – the American Congress building.
If you are going to visit Washington, D.C., its best to go there in July because of the 4th of July’s Independence Day Parade. The parade takes place in late morning along Constitution Avenue and attracts thousands of spectators, who come to see specially invited bands, military units and VIPs. Independence Day is a holiday for all Americans, and the bands are specially selected on the basis of quality and ethnic and cultural diversity. In the evening everyone goes to watch the fireworks near the Capitol – one of the country’s largest firework displays.
