CINEMAIn England the cinema is usuallycalled the pictures . In America the word the movies is often used.Cinema-going is a favourite pastime in Britain.People go to the cinema once ortwice a week. Cinema-going is more popular in industrial towns in the North ofEngland and Scotland than in the South. However, especially if it is cold andwet outside, many people like to stay at home to watch TV.Cinemas in England are usually largeand more comfortable than the theatres. Often there is a restaurant, so that itis possible to spend an afternoon and evening there if you have enough money,of course . Behind the cine-ma screen there is a stage, so that the buildingcan be used for concerts and other performances.British cinema-goers see mainlyEnglish and American films, though many of the foreign films are often shown inLondon and in the South of the country.In our country cinema-going is not sopopular now as it was earlier.
People prefer to stay at home and to watch TV orvideo.I like to watch films very much. Iprefer thrillers, comedies and horror movies, but I do not like tragedies andmelodramas very much, and I hate soap operas, although they are becoming verypopular in our country.
My favourite film is with starring. It isreally wonderful from the beginning to the end. There are a lot of films whichare worth seeing, but this one is the best one to my mind.
