1. Please read the following text:
As it is situated in the centre of the European continent, Czechoslovakia is
‘land-locked’. Communication to the sea is provided by two great rivers:
the Elbe, flowing from the western part of the country to the North Sea,
and the Danube, flowing southeast to the Black Sea and forming its
southern boundary. Bratislava, its second-largest city, is a Danube port.
Most of the Slovaks live in Slovakia, the eastern part of the country. This
area is less densely populated and industrialized to a far smaller extent than
the western part. The Slovaks are largely farmers, shepherds, or
lumbermen
