III. Фонетическая разминка

   - ,Now you know a,lot about your textbook. Let's pass over to our ,    today's topic "After Rain Comes Fine Weather".

 [w]

- What sounds are they? Pronounce them. Name the words with these sounds. (We, why, when, where, what, weather, etc.)

—  We need them today at the lesson. Let's train to pronounce them in the correct way. The poem on the blackboard can help you.

 Whether the weather be fine

 Or whether the weather be not,

 Whether the weather be cold

Or whether the weather be hot,

 We'll weather the weather

 Whatever the weather

 Whether we like it or not.*

—  Translate the poem, read it after me.

—     Now read the poem in pairs. Listen to each other and correct the mistakes if there are any. Read it in a natural manner. Who wants?

IV. Активизация лексики в речи

I see that you can pronounce the sounds [w] and [6] really well. As you know we are going to speak about the weather. Look at the photos on p. 6. You see seven different symbols. What do they mean? (The first symbol means sunny weather. The second symbol means cloudy and sunny weather. The third symbol means rainy weather. The forth symbol means stormy weather. The fifth symbol means snowy weather. The sixth symbol means windy weather. The seventh symbol means cloudy weather.)

The first symbol means. . . weather.

- What about the weather today? What is it like? Is it rainy, snowy or sunny? (It is sunny today. The sun is shining brightly. It is stormy today. The strong wind is blowing. There is a thunder storm. It is snowy. It's snowing heavily. It is cloudy. There are a lot of clouds in the sky. It is rainy. It's raining heavily. It is cloudy and sunny today. The sun is shining but there are also some clouds in the sky. It is windy. The wind is blowing.)

—  You know that in different countries the weather is different. First of all learn to pronounce the names of some European countries to prepare for the discussion. See ex. 2 on p. 6. Repeat the names of the countries. Say which of them were not mentioned on the tape.

—  If you want to know the typical European weather then prepare a report about it for the next lesson.

—  And now we shall discuss the typical Russian weather. You know our country is the largest in the world. That 's why the weather can differ in its different parts. Ex. 3 will help you. I would like you to work in groups of four. Discuss the weather using the example.

- Do Russian people often talk about the weather? (No, they don't.)

— What about British people? Look and read the information from ex. 4 on p. 7. Remember it. Let's learn to talk like British people.

Work in pairs and make up a dialogue using exercises 4 and 5. Present your dialogues to the class. (— It's a terrible day today, isn't it? — Yes, it's awful, isn't it?

—  It's a wonderful day for playing golf today, isn't it?

-  Yes, it's beautiful, isn't it?

—  It's miserable weather today, isn't it?

—  Yes, it's terrible.)

-  I see that you are tired. Let's have a rest.

VI. Развитие коммуникативных навыков

—  Are you sad or angry when the weather is bad? What is sung about the weather in a song from the famous Russian film "The Official Romance"? (У природы нет плохой погоды. / Каждая погода — благодать.)

—  Do you agree with these words? Why? Let's learn a poem about what you should do when the weather is awful. Read it in ex. 6. Say what mustn't we do when it is wet, cold or warm. What must we do? (We must not fret when the weather is wet. We must not scold when the weather is cold. We must not storm when the weather is warm. But we must be thankful whatever the weather.)

—  I would like to know what you usually do on different days. Answer the questions from ex. 7, p. 7.

Work in groups of three. Tell each other about the weather in your European city. Listen very attentively and prepare to report to the class about the city described by your partners.

The weather was fine yesterday. It started to rain but we still were walking in the street. It is surprisingly warm today.-What wonderful weather!

expressions from ex. 26.

(I'm surprised that in Australia it's mid-summer in January. I think it is interesting that the words "Life is a beach " mean that everything is great and surprising. I can't believe that in North America in summer it could be hot: +35 C. In my opinion, it's surprising that when it's cold outside in North America you can go to the shops, see a film or have a meal without going outside. I'm surprised that in Britain the weather is so changeable.) — Now you try to have a talk about weather in your country. Study the situation in ex. 27, p. 11.

 Текст открытки:

Dear Polly,

I live in Russia. The weather is different here in different seasons. It is usually warm and even hot in summer. The sun shines brightly, the sky is blue, and it rains but not much. In autumn you can't be sure of a warm day. The early autumn is usually warm, but then it is quite cold. The temperature is from 3 degrees below zero to 10 degrees above zero. Then winter comes and everything gets its white clothes. It is snowy, cold and even frosty. In early spring the weather is usually quite cold. It sometimes snows. Then there come warmer days. The sun begins shining more brightly. So, if you want to come to my country, be sure of the season you choose.

Best wishes,

Mary.

Варианты текстов:

Every Cloud Has a Silver Lining

One day I was trying to get to the University from one end of the city to another. There was a car accident on the road. I saw an old man who was at the helm and a young woman with a baby in the car. I rushed to the car to help the passengers. I let the woman with the baby out quite quickly. It was rather difficult to help the driver. Suddenly I saw the petrol flowing from the car. There was no time but I made all my forces to save the man. When everything was over I understood that I had missed my lectures. Two days later I had a phone call. It was that man from the car. He invited me to visit them and thanked for saving their lives. Now I have my new friends. Every cloud has a silver lining.

To Everything There Is a Season

Our neighbours were so loud. They are young people. They always listened to loud music even at night. We were so tired. We could never have a rest. My parents often visited them to say they should stop listening to music, but it was no use.

A month ago the young couple had a baby. The loud music stopped. At last we have time to relax. One day we had a party. The next day mother was talking to the neighbour. She told mother that they were not sleeping the whole night as their baby couldn't sleep. Mother answered: "Now do you see that you shouldn't have listened to music so loudly all day long? To everything there is a season".

It Never Rains but It Pours

There are sometimes days when we have a trouble after trouble, and it seems to have no end. I had one of such days yesterday. First of all I overslept as my alarm-clock stopped. Then I went to the bathroom to have a shower but they switched off the hot water. While I was dressing my bus went away. I had to get to school by taxi. So, as you could understand I was late. We had a test on Maths that day. My teacher was angry. Due to this I had to stay after classes to finish my test. People are right to say that it never rains but it pours.

One Cloud Is Enough to Eclipse the Sun

Our class is quite good. Nevertheless we couldn't win the school competition to be called the best class. There are 25 students in our class. We all try to study well, but there is one student in our class who is often not ready for classes. Besides, he is always late for classes and rude with our teachers. So, everybody at school thinks that our class is bad. I think the proverb "One cloud is enough to eclipse the sun" is about that student.

After Rain Conies Fine Weather

Our class is quite good. Nevertheless we couldn't win the school competition to be called the best class. There are 25 students in our class. We all try to study well, but there is one student in our class who is often not ready for classes. Besides, he is always late for classes and rude with our teachers. So, everybody at school thinks that our class is bad.

But not long ago we had a council. We decided to organize help to that our student. We hope to win in the competition next year. After rain comes fine weather.

IV. Обучение чтению

—  A new topic we start to discuss is "We're a Part of the Universe". As you may understand we are going to discuss space and our planet the Earth. What do you know about it? (The Earth is round. It is big. It moves around the Sun. It's a blue planet. There are a lot of oceans, seas, rivers, mountains and lakes on the Earth.)

A small satellite was coming towards us. - Маленький спутник приближался к нам .

Something was scraping on the metal of the spacesuit. - Что-то скреблось о металл моего космического костюма.

And it was trying to get into my spacesuit, I thought. - И оно пы­талось забраться в мой космический костюм, думал я.

 

Was his ghost trying to get back into my spacesuit? - Пытался ли это его призрак забраться ко мне в космический костюм?

But they weren't looking at me. They were looking at something more interesting. — Но они не смотрели на меня. Они смотрели на что-то более интересное.

The doctors were playing with three kittens. - — Врачи играли с тре­мя котятами .

- Why is the Post Continuous tense used here? ( The Past Continuous

When people don 't know something they are afraid of it. )

-  I think it's time for you to retell the story. Ex. 17 on p. 35 will help you. Use these words and write the story from the point of view of a man working at the station or one of the doctors.

Примерный рассказ

—  Let's speak about space exploration. Listen to the teenagers speaking about space exploration. Complete the sentences from ex. 66, p. 20. The first letters of the missing words will help you.

—  Listen to them again and say who you agree with. Explain why. What is your opinion about space exploration? Ex. 67 on p. 20 will help you. First read the given word expressions. Do you understand all of them?

Bapuaнm 1. Work in pairs. Share your opinions then say what your partner thinks of space exploration.

omвem:

It seems to me that space exploration is very interesting. For thousands of years people have been dreaming of travelling through space, of researching and touching the stars, of communicating with bejngs from other planets. They have always wanted to find a planet to live on. We could learn a lot from space research, solve different medical and scientific problems, and make progress in science. In my opinion, it's worth trying because space research can change people's life" the better.

I believe that space research is a waste of money. We should spend money on other (medical, scientific) research. There are a lot of serious |problems on the earth (dangerous diseases, pollution, a lot of crime and  wars) So, space is not a key problem for people nowadays.

Besides, space research can ruin another planet. It's a chance in million that we will have a success.

As for me, I have no idea about space research. It's useless to dream 'about space travel. Don't care. People must solve everyday problems.

Вариант 2 Devide into 2 big groups. The first group thinks that exploring space, the second group thinks it isn't. Give your arguments . After that we'll make a c conclusion.

 

—  I see that most of the students in our group are (are not) interested in space. But if you were a correspondent what questions would you ask an astronaut to learn more about space exploration?

Listen to such interview and say how long the astronaut has been in space centre.

- Now open ex. 68, p. 20. Translate the dialogue.

—  Listen to it again, mind the stresses and intonation. At home get ready to act it out.

—  Open your books at p. 27. See ex. 93. In pairs discuss what sentences are true. Prove your answers with the examples from the text.

Примерный ответ:

 

1 . It's true, because it is said in the text that "tornadoes are the most violent of all storms" .

2. It's false, because it is said in the text that "nobody can predict what they might do. Tornadoes destroy houses, carry away cars and telephone boxes".

3. It's false, because it is said in the text that "tornadoes occur in the spring. A hot day in the afternoon or in the early evening is the most likely time for this dangerous storm".

4. It's true, because it is said in the text that "the violent winds of tornadoes blow down almost everything on their way".

5. It's false, because it is said in the text that "fortunately tornadoes can be predicted".

VI. Обучение речи

 

You see that the author wants us to understand different problems.

Let us discuss them. Divide into three groups. See ex. 34 on p. 49.

Every group must answer their own question and the last fourth

question. Discuss them in groups. Give the examples from the

text.

1. There was no word which means "telling lies" in the fairytale country because they used language in the country in order to understand each other and to give and receive information. I think (to my mind, in my opinion), people can't live without telling lies  because there are sometimes situations when we need tell lies. as for me, I don't often lie. I think it is bad to tell lies.

2. There were no wars in the fairytale country. To my mind, it is possible to avoid wars in our world, but people can't do it because they often argue and quarrel.

 I would. I would like to live on the island with Houys because they look like horses, they are kind and friendly, they don't tell , and they like to get along with their neighbours. I would like : world to become similar to theirs. It is possible, I think, if pie stop telling lies and arguing.

Today you will continue discussing the ecological problems and the ways out of the situation. That's why you need to learn some more new words. Then we read some interesting information about the environmental problems.

II         Фонетическая разминка

But before it do some phonetical exercises. Open your workbooks at p. 31, ex. 1. Pronounce the words correctly. Use the transcription. P1, P2, P3.

-  Consult your vocabularies to translate the words. The words "kilogram" and "polythene" are international words. We can easily translate them without a dictionary.

3.Our family throws the rubbish into the bins. My father usually takes the rubbish out.

4.Yes, we do. (No, we don't.)

5.Yes, I do. I have heard that it is possible to recycle the rubbish, but it needs a lot of money. Besides, the products are not sometimes recycled, they are simply burried.

6.Many products are recycled in Russia, such as waste paper, саns, bottles, metal and plastic.

-   Let's read the useful expressions at the end of the exercise.

IV.      Обучение лексике

-     We need more words to speak about the rubbish. First look at the words in ex. 38, p. 50. Listen to them and learn to pronounce

-     Are they international words? (Yes, they are.)

-     Why? {Because we can translate them without a dictionary.)

-     Study the words from ex. 39, p. 50. Translate the won! combinations. Read them after me first.

T-Ps;Pl,P2, P3.

-  Translate the words in a chain. Keys:

Can you help me to collect them? - He могли бы вы помочь мне собрать их?

A can of drink/food can - банка напитка/коробка с едой.

-  Learn to use these word combinations. Work in pairs and make up your own sentences.

Учитель распределяет словосочетания между парами.

-   Now read your sentence in English, other pupils will translate it. 

 Примерные предложения:

Smoking in public places is strictly prohibited. The parliament voted for the prohibition of it. Most of the goods are recyclable. Recycled paper can be used again. The process of recycling wastes is very important. I he rubbish can be recycled in the recycling centres. People drop litter everywhere. We try to clear litter away. Mother bought two packs of biscuits yesterday. We have visited the factory, now we know how they DO packaging. Some people don't use the bins, they just throw litter аway. Human beings can protect their fragile planet. Can you help me to pack my things? There were a million of cans of drink.

-   I see that you are tired. Have a rest.

V.Физкультминутка

VI.Обучение чтению

-  We are going to read the texts "Why Throw away so Much?" and "Packaging". Look at the photos. Say what you think these texts are about. Use the new words. (To my mind (in my opinion), in the first photo we see a recycling centre, where they recycle the rubbish. In the second photo we see a lot of litter. I'm sure, the text is about why people throw away the rubbish.)

In pairs read only one of the texts and say if you were right. Prepare questions to your partner about what he has read. The first question may be "What is the main idea of the text?" Look at the blackboard. Use the schemes and think of other questions. Запись на доске:

What is the main idea of the text?

How many (much)... throw away (produce)?

What is...?

What can...?

Is it expensive?

Примерные вопросы:

What is recycling (packaging)?

I low many cans do people throw away in one year?

I low much plastic waste do people produce?

What can we do to solve the problem?

Now report to the class what you have learnt about your partner's

 Примерный рассказ:

The main idea of the text "Why Throw away so Much?" is that people throw away too much rubbish. But still we can recycle it. Recycling is the process after which the rubbish can be useful again. People throw away 174 cans in one year. To solve the problem we must recycle the litter. It is expensive but it saves trees and energy.

The main idea of the text "Packaging" is that some packaging is not necessary. Packaging is paper or plastic containers used to pack food. People produce about 57 kilograms of plastic waste. To solve the problem we must throw the packaging into the bins and clear the rubbish away. It is expensive but it helps to protect the environment.

-  Read both texts and find out if you have understood everything There are some words that you don't understand. Work on them at home. Use the strategies from ex. 41, p. 51.

VII. Подведение итогов урока

-  What new words have you learnt? Can people protect the Earth from the rubbish? How? Do you throw away packaging? You have done much work today. The lesson is over, you may go
