6. T: Unlike other English-speaking countries Canada has two official languages. What is the French-speaking province of Canada? P_1, will you tell us a few words about the province of Quebec.

P₁ : Canada's beginnings were French; and even now French is the language spoken by about one fifth of Canadians. Canada has two official languages - English and French. The St. Lawrence Valley was the heart of the French colony in North America up to the middle of the 18^th century.

The St. Lawrence River, from Montreal to the Gulf of St. Lawrence, may still be called a French river.

Quebec is the home of the French Canadian nation, and Quebec City is the capital of the province. Quebec is Canada's largest province. More than a quarter of all the population of Canada lives in this province. Montreal, the main St. Lawrence port, is the second largest French city in the world - after Paris.
French Canada still keeps some of its old traditions, but it is a mistake to say that Quebec is very different from the rest of Canada; every year the difference becomes less.

7. T: After the discovery of Canada many kings and navigators began to dream of the riches in this new country. But as for Australia, it was first used as a colony for convicts. They worked hard to make this country better.

P_{2 ,} will you recite a poem about their hard labour and then the translation into Russian made by some pupils of your class?

Old Botany Bay (By Mary Gilmore)

I'm old
Botany Bay
Stiff in the joints,
Little to say;

I am he
Who paved the way
That you might walk
At your ease today;

I was the conscript
Sent to hell
To make in the desert
The living well;

I bore the heat,
I blazed the track
Furrowed and bloody
Upon my back.

I split the rock
I felled the tree:
The nation was
Because of me!

Old Botany Bay
Taking the sun
From day to day…
Shame on the mouth
That would deny
The knotted hands
That set us high!

Я старый Ботани Бэй,
Крепкий как сталь,
Не гнусь, хоть убей.

Это я мостил дороги,
Чтобы вы, потомки,
Не сломали ноги.

Я - каторжник,
Посланный в ад,
Чтобы сделать из пустыни
Цветущий сад.

Мой тяжкий труд,
Как в страшном сне
Оставил след кровавый
На моей спине.

Я скалы взрывал,
Деревья срубал,
И, если б не я,
Не было б и тебя.

Старый Ботани Бэй
Живуч, хоть бей иль не бей.
Позор тому,
Что вдруг забыл,
Кто эту жизнь
Ему добыл.

Canada

Canada is the second largest country in the world. Only 48* Russia has a greater land area. Canada is situated in North America. Canada is slightly larger than the United States, but has only about a tenth as many people. About 28 million

people live in Canada. About 80% of the population live within 320 km of the southern border. Much of the rest of Canada is uninhabited or thinly populated because of severe natural conditions.

Canada is a federation of 10 provinces and 2 territories. Canada is an independent nation. But according to the Constitution Act of 1982 British Monarch, Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom is recognized as Queen of Canada.

This symbolizes the country's strong ties to Britain. Canada was ruled by Britain completely until 1867, when Canada gained control of its domestic affairs. Britain governed Canada's foreign affairs until 1931, when Canada gained full independence. Canada's people are varied. About 57% of all Canadians have some English ancestry and about 32% have some Frenchancestry. Both English and French are official languages of the country. French Canadians, most of whom live in the provinces of Quebec, have kept the language and customs of their ancestors. Other large ethnic groups are German, Irishand Scottish people. Native people - American Indians and Eskimos - make up about 2% of the country's population. 77% of Canada's people live in cities or towns. Toronto and Montreal are the largest urban areas. Ottawa is the capital of the country.

Today, maintaining a sense of community is one of the major problems in Canada because of differences among the provinces and territories. Many Canadians in western and eastern parts of the country feel that the federal government does not pay enough attention to their problems. 80% of Quebec's population are French Canadians. Many of them believe that their province should recieve a special recognition in the Canadian constitution.

Questions:

1. Where is Canada situated?

2.How many people live in Canada?

3. Where do most Canadians live?

4. Who is the head of state in Canada?

Канада

Канада - это вторая по величине страна в мире. Только Россия имеет большую площадь. Канада находится в Северной Америке. Канада немного больше Соединенных Штатов, однако в ней живет в десять раз меньше людей. В Канаде - около 28 миллионов жителей. Около 80% населения живет в пределах 320 км от южной границы. Большая часть остальной территории Канады не заселена или мало заселена из-за суровых природных условий. Канада является федерацией 10 провинций и 2 территорий. Канада - это независимое государство. Но согласно Конституционному акту 1982 года английская королева Елизавета II признана главой государства Канады. Это символизирует прочные связи страны с Британией. Британия правила Канадой вплоть до 1867 года, когда Канада получила контроль над своими внутренними делами. Британия управляла иностранными делами Канады до 1931года, когда Канада получила полную независимость.Население Канады разнообразно. Около 57% канадцев имеют английское происхождение и около 32% жителей - канадцы французского происхождения. Как английский, так и французский являются государственными языками страны.

Французские канадцы, большинство из которых живет в провинции Квебек, сохранили язык и обычаи своих предков. Другими большими этническими группами являются немцы, ирландцы и шотландцы. Коренные народы, аме-риканские индейцы и эскимосы, составляют около 2% населения страны. 77% населения Канады живет в большихи малых городах. Торонто и Монреаль - самые большиегорода. Оттава - столица страны.Сегодня сохранение чувства общности является главной проблемой в Канаде из-за различий среди провинций и территорий. Многие канадцы в западных и восточных

областях страны считают, что федеральное правительство не уделяет достаточно внимания их проблемам. 80% населения Квебека - французские канадцы. Многие из них считают, что провинция должна получить специальное признание в канадской Конституции

History of Canada

Canada's history is an exciting story of development of a vast wilderness into a great nation. Most experts believe that the first people who lived on this land came from Asia about 15000 years ago. They came over a land bridge that once

connected Asia and North America. Their descendants are known today as Indians. The ancestors of the Eskimos came to Alaska after them probably about 5000 years ago. In 1497, John Cabot, an italian navigator in the service of England, found rich fishing grounds off Canada's southeast coast. His discovery led to the European exploration of Canada. France set up a colony in eastern Canada in the early

1600's. Great Britain gained control of the country in 1763, and thousands of British emigrants came to Canada. In 1867, the French and English-speaking Canadians helped to create a united colony called the Dominion of Canada. Two groups worked together to settle the country and to develop its great

mineral deposits and other natural resources. Canada gained its independence from Britain in 1931. During the middle of 20th century hard-working Canadians

turned their country into an economic giant. Today Canada is a leading producer of wheat, oats, and barley. Canada also ranks among the world's top manufacturing countries, and it is a major producer of electric power. Throughout its history, Canada has often been troubled by lack of unity among its people. French Canadians, most of whom live in the province of Quebec, have struggled to

preserve their own culture. They have long been angered by Canadian policies based on British traditions. Many of them support a movement to make Quebec a separate nation. People in Canada's nine other provinces also frequently favour localneeds over national interests.

Questions:

1. Who were the first people to live in Canada?

2. How did they come to Canada?

3. What countries took part in exploration of Canada?

4. When did Canada gain it's independence?

5. Is Canada a developed country now?

6. What problems does Canada face today?

Vocabulary:

vast - обширный

wilderness - пустыня

land bridge - перешеек

descendant - потомок

Indians - индейцы

ancestor - предок

Escimos - эскимосы

navigator - мореплаватель

fishing grounds - рыбные места

История Канады

История Канады - увлекательная история превращения обширной пустыни в великое государство. Многие эксперты считают, что первые люди, которые жили на этой земле, пришли из Азии около 15 000 лет назад. Они пришли по перешейку, который некогда соединял Азию с Северной Америкой. Их потомки сейчас известны как индейцы. Предки эскимосов пришли на Аляску за ними, вероятно, около 5 000 лет назад. В 1497 году Джон Кэбот, итальянский мореплаватель, состоявший на службе Англии, обнаружил рыбные местау юго-западного побережья Канады. Его открытие привело к исследованию Канады европейцами. Франция основала колонию на востоке Канады в начале XVII века. Великобритания получила контроль над страной в 1763 году, и тысячи английских эмигрантов прибыли в Канаду. В 1867-м канадцы английского и французского происхождения помогли создать объединенную колонию, названную доминионом Канада. Обе группы работали вместе, чтобы заселить страну и разработать ее большие

залежи полезных ископаемых и другие природные ресурсы. Канада получила независимость от Британии в 1931году. В течение полувека прилежные канадцы превратили свою страну в экономического гиганта. Сегодня Канада - ведущий производитель пшеницы, овса и ячменя. Канада также находится среди ведущих стран-производителей и является главным поставщиком

электроэнергии. На протяжении своей истории Канада часто сталкивалась с проблемами единства среди ее населения. Французские канадцы, большинство которых живет в провинции Квебек, стремились сохранить свою собственную культуру. Они уже давно недовольны политикой Канады, основанной на британских традициях. Многие из них поддерживают движение, целью которого является сделать Квебек отдельным государством. Люди в остальных девяти провинциях Канады также часто предпочитают местные
