Rosy: Let's write a limerick.
Misha: What's a limerick?
Rosy: A limerick is a nonsense poem. It's short and funny. The first person who wrote limericks was Edward Lear, a Victorian writer. Here's one of his limericks:

There was a young lady of Niger ['naigs],
Who smiled when she rode on a tiger;
They returned from the ride,
With the lady inside,
And a smile on the face of the tiger.

Limerick — лимерик.The English like these short funny poems. Usually there are five lines in a У limerick. The first line rhymes with the second and the last
lines and the third line rhymes with the fourth line.

Victorian — викторианский. The period of time named after Queen Victoria who reigned in Britain from 1837 to 1901.

7 Put the  lines of  this limeriсk  in the  right  ordeг.

And  shе got very сold,
Thеrе Was a strangе  lady of Сoх,
But thе lady was  old,
oh, poor, strangе  lady of Coх.
Who wantеd  to  livе  in a box:
 
Guess the meaning of the underlined words.

1.    I like cakes and biscuits ['biskits].
2. Kangaroos    livе  in Australia  .

1.    Which of them did Misha write?
2.    Which of them did Robin write?
3.    Which of them did Rosy write?

Tip: There weren't any animals in Rosy's limerick. Misha's limerick wasn't about a man. Misha and Robin: Limericks are easy! We can write limericks too.
