Omsk

I live in Omsk. Omsk is situated in the south of West Siberia. It stands on the rivers Irtysh and Om.

In 1716 at the mouth of the Om river the Omsk fortress was built. Its founder was Colonel Bukhgolts. From the beginning Omsk played a great role in the development of Siberia. With the construction of the railway in 1899 Omsk became the centre of transport, trade and agriculture. Steamship navigation was opened on the Irtysh river and various industries began to develop. In 1861 Omsk was connected with Orenburg by telegraph.

Local merchants were expanding during that period. Foreign concessions and monopolies appeared. The region exported grain, butter, meat, fish, furs and leather. The town was on the rise.

One of important pages in the history of our city is the Civil War during which Admiral Kolchak proclaimed Omsk to be the capital of Russia. In 1919 the Soviet Power was established in Omsk.

By 1934 the city became one of the biggest regional centrеs in Russia, stretching from Kazakhstan in the south to the Arctic Ocean in the north. During World War II many industrial enterprises were evacuated in to Omsk from the western part of the Soviet Union, thus increasing the industrial potential of the area.

In the ‘50s and ‘60s an oil refinery plant, manufacturing, military and heavy industrial equipment were built. Today they form the backbone of Omsk industry.

Nowadays Omsk is a large city. The Omsk region is located in the southern part of the West – Siberia plane. The climate is severe continental. The main water artery is the Irtysh river.

Omsk is an important industrial, cultural and educational centre. More than 90% of industrial production is concentrated in Omsk. The leaders of Omsk exports are enterprises of refining, chemical and petrochemical industry.

I ask. (Я спрашиваю)

Глагол – сказуемое в Passive Voice показывает, что подлежащее предложения является объектом действия, выраженного глаголом.

Text I

Omsk is one of the oldest Russian towns. Omsk is situated on the banks of the Irtysh and Om rivers. The Siberian сity Omsk will celebrate its 300th Anniversary in 2016. A former small merchant town has turned for the years of Soviet power into a large industrial, scientific and cultural center of West Siberia. The city today numbers about 1200000 inhabitants.

At the beginning of the 18 century a group of Russian soldiers and Cossacks under the guidance of an officer Bukhgolts founded a fortress on the left bank of the Om river. The fortress was later renamed a town of Omsk. So Omsk was founded in 1716. At the end of 19th century the Great Trans-Siberian Railway passed through Omsk. Before the revolution Omsk was just like any other Siberian town – wooden houses, unpaved, dirty, crooked streets, no parks and gardens. Omsk was a place of exile. Decembrists and revolutionaries were exiled by the tsarist government to Omsk. A great Russian writer Dostoevsky spent 4 years in the Omsk fortress.

The city of labour produces goods in sum of more than 6 billion roubles a year. Some items are being supplied to more than 60 countries all over the world. The pride of our city is the first Oil Refinery, a giant of Siberian petrochemistry, which was put into operation in 1965. Besides the chemical enterprises of our city include Synthetic Rubber plant, the Tyre – Making plant, the Smoke – Black plant and others. Engineering, instrument making, light and building industries are developed in Omsk.

Omsk is with good reason considered a city of students, of the youth. Every the fourth of the city’s residents is studying. There are all kinds of educational institutions in Omsk. We have 14 universities, many technical schools, libraries. The A. S. Pushkin Library is the biggest of them.

The city’s history of welfare standards and culture has a particular effect on its characteristics and spirit. The lives and fates of such eminent people of the country as F. Dostoevsky and M. Vrubel, V. Kuibyshev and D. Karbyshev, P. Dravert and V. Shebalin, L. Martynov, S. Zaligin and other prominent figures in science and art are closely connected with Omsk.

There are a lot of varieties for leisure – theatres, museums, concert halls, exhibitions, gymnasiums, sports grounds, Palaces of Culture, discotheques and swimming pools – for townsfolk. For the believers there are cathedrals, prayers houses of various in the city. The best known theatres in Omsk are the Drama Theatre, the Musical Theatre, the Children’s Theatre and the Puppet Theatre. A fine Concert Hall, an Organ Hall, a Circus, the Sports and Concert Palace are at our disposal. The Omsk Folk Choir and the Omsk Symphony Orchestra are famous in the world. The Fine Arts Museum and other museums possess wide collections of exhibits and paintings. They are worth visiting. There is the Memorial Square with the Eternal Flame in the centre of the city, a lot of monuments, fine green parks and gardens with many beautiful flowers and different kinds of entertainments.

But at the same time Omsk is the city with its own unsolved problems. We live in the period of great changes. We strive to revalue many respects and start life afresh. Our energies are directed to creating required productive, living and spiritual conditions for the Omsk residents.
