14. EKATERINBURG (Retell the text) 7 August 1723 is the official day of the birth of Ekaterinburg, the industrial and military centre of the mining administration and important stronghold set up by the government of Peter I for the colonisation of the vast expenses of the Urals and Siberia. The town owes to its origin to a metallurgical and metal-working plant which rose on the banks of the Iset river. The builders of the town worked in extremely hard conditions led by talented Russian mining experts: general Genin and captain Tatishchev. This prominent statesman and noted scientist headed the construction. The town was surrounded by wood and all buildings were wooden. But the town grew and developed and, with the time, Ekaterinburg began to play an increasingly important role as an administrative, mining and all-Urals machine-building centre, though it was a provincial town. Nowadays it is a big industrial centre of the Russian Federation. It has always been and remains traditionally the centre with dominating branches of industry as machine-building and metal-working. There are more than 100 industrial enter prises, among them the Verch-Iset metallurgical and metal-working plant the biggest in the Urals. Ekaterinburg is a scientific centre. There is the Urals branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, a lot of scientific and project institutes there. Ekaterinburg is a city of students. There are more than 15 institutions of higher education, a lot of colleges, private and state schools. The oldest is the Urals Mining Academy founded in 1912. The biggest and the most famous is the Urals State Technical University founded in 1920. Ekaterinburg is also a theatrical centre. There are many theatres, cinemas and palaces of culture and variety shows. The oldest among the theatres is the Opera House, which was built in 1912. One cannot but mention our museums and picture galleries. The Urals Geological Museum is a real treasure-house of the Urals Mountains." It enjoys truly a great popularity because it contains very rich collection of rare minerals and precious stones, which cannot be found arty where.
