Teacher: Yes, you are right. Learning English is very important nowadays. Do you agree with me?

P 5: Yes, I do. I learn English because it is the language of new technologies and computers. Certain modern professions require a good knowledge of English.

P 6: I learn English, because I understand that I can use it. For example, If I go to England I will be able to speak English there. If I go to the USA I will speak English too. English is used not only in England but also in other parts of the world.

P 7: I learn English because I want to read foreign literature in the original. I know and like such English and American writers as Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, Lewis Carroll and others. I understand that I must learn English. If I know English well I will be able to go to the library and take books by English and American writers in the original.

P 8: I like to travel. But it is difficult to visit countries, when you don't know the language of these countries, where I am going to it will be easy to travel there. If I want to ask something I can do it in English.

P 9: I like to read books. And I like to read newspapers too. If I know, for example, English I will be able to read English newspapers and magazines. Knowledge of foreign languages helps young people of different countries to understand each other, to develop friendship among them.

P 10: There are a lot of films in foreign languages. If you know them, you can understand films without any help.

Teacher: Thank you, if we learn English we should know all about the country. We know that Great Britain consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. By the way, do you know what their capitals are?

P 1: Their capitals are: London, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Belfast.

Listen, watch and then be ready to answer the questions (Вопросы по теме«Scotland» розданы учащимся перед просмотром презентации и прослушиванием информации). Let's start with you Vadim.

Слайд№1. (If we travel all over Scotland, we can see that geographically it consists of three main parts: Lowlands, Uplands and Highlands with their Grampian Mountains, where the tallest mountain peak, Ben Nevis (1343 meters), is located. It is a vast territory of about 79 00 square kilometers, but the population of Scotland is only five million people. If we compare it with Moscow, it is just half of the population of our capital.)

Слайд№2(You are sure to enjoy the beauty of the Scottish varied landscape: the hills, covered with purple heather (if you manage to find the white one, then you are lucky), its beautiful lakes (here they are called lochs), its green and narrow valleys (or glens)… Other countries might have higher peaks, deeper lakes and broader valleys, but the unique Scottish combination of mountain, loch and glen continues to capture the hearts of all who come here.)

Слайд№3(The biggest and the most beautiful lake in Scotland is Loch Lomond, but the most famous one is Loch Ness with its mysterious monster Nessie. Nessie sometimes appears to scare the tourists but only in fine weather, which is a great rarity for Scotland.)

Слайд№4(But what can be more peculiar and attractive for tourists than a man in the kilt, playing the bagpipes? The Celts of Scotland made the chequered pattern of tartan the national dress of the country.)

Слайд№5(The earliest Scots formed themselves into clans (family groups) and the tartan became a symbol of the sense of kinship. Sometimes there were fierce battles between different clans but nowadays the Macdonalds and the MacKenzies (Mac means "son of"), the Campbells and the Camerons live in peace with each other. There are about 300 different clans in Scotland, and each has its own colour and pattern of tartan together into motto.)

Учащиеся дают ответы на вопросы:

1) What does Scotland consist of?

2) What is the capital of Scotland?

3) What is the symbol of Scotland? (a thistle)

4) What do you know about the landscape of Scotland? (There are hills …)

5) What does the word "Mac" mean?

Teacher: Good of you. Now pay attention to Irina's presentation.

Irina: We will watch a presentation about famous people of Scotland.

Слайд№6(Scotland is a land of many famous people: writers and poets, scientists and philosophers. Just imagine: you are reading about far-away, rainy and foggy, mysterious and romantic Scotland and hear a telephone bell. You come up to the phone (by the way, invented by Alexander Graham Bell, born in Edinburgh) and answer it.).

Слайд№7(This is your friend who wants you to keep him company and go for a walk, but it is raining outside. No problem: you put on your raincoat invented by chemist Charles Macintosh from Glasgow and are ready to leave the house.)

Слайд№8(But your mother asks you to send a letter to your favourite auntie. So you put an adhesive stamp on it, invented by John Chalmers, bookseller and printer of Dundee.)

Слайд№9(Be careful not to get pneumonia in such weather or you will have to take injections of penicillin, discovered by Sir Alexander Fleming of Darvel, Scotland.)

Слайд№10,11,12,13(Well, in the evening, after a walk, you are eager to sit in a comfortable armchair with a cup of hot coffee and read an adventurous novel by Sir Walter Scott from Edinburgh or maybe Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson or The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, born in Edinburgh or maybe a book of poems by Robert Burns.)
