Olga: Sorry to interrupt you.
Frank: That's all right. Can I help you?
Olga: It seems to me that I've just lost my way. Can you tell me how to get to
the Washington Monument?
Frank: Don't worry! It's as easy as ABC. Go along this street, then turn to the
right and go down the street until you get there. You can't miss it.
Olga: Thank you very much.
Frank: Excuse me, you are from Russia, aren't you?
Olga: Yes, you are right. You have certainly heard about St. Petersburg. This is
the city I live in.
Frank: Of course I have. I visited your wonderful city last year. Our cities have
much in common, don't they?
Olga: You don't say so!
Frank: If I'm not mistaken, the place for St. Petersburg was chosen by Russian
Tsar, Peter I.
Olga: Exactly. As far as I remember, George Washington chose the place for
your city, didn't he?
Frank: Right you are. And St Petersburg was named in honour of the greatest
Russian Tsar.
Olga: And Washington D. C. was named after the first President of the USA. By
the way, did George Washington live and work in the White House?
Frank No, he didn't. It was built from 1792 to 1800 and Washington died in
1799, but he took part in its building. Have you visited the White House yet?
Olga: No, we haven't. But we are going there tomorrow. Thanks.
Frank: Not at all. All the best!
