We shall speak about our dream vocation, about advantages and disadvantages of travelling, about London, its history and sights. So, let\u2019s begin our lesson.<\/p>\n

II. Brainstorming.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

First of all, let\u2019s speak about your dream vocation. Where do you want to go? What do you want to see? And with whom do you want to go? Use the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

III. Travelling: Pros and Cons.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Teacher: Well done. The next part of our lesson is called \u201cTravelling: pros and cons.\u201d<\/p>\n

Every year a lot of people from different countries all over the world travel abroad for their holidays. What do you think about tourism. Share your opinions about travelling.<\/p>\n

St 1: I think it is wonderful to discover new places. Travelling is a part of people\u2019s education. You meet new culture, new traditions, new people. To go abroad you must know foriegn languages.<\/p>\n

St 2: Sometimes your holiday won\u2019t be as you expected. You can\u2019t speak your own language. You must change your customs.<\/p>\n

St 3: Frankly speaking tourism is a basis of the biggest business. Tourists spend a lot of money. You don\u2019t have to go to work or to school. Because you are on holiday! And you are happy!<\/p>\n

St 4: Unfortunately, the real life differs from your dreams. You must stay in a long queus. You can lost you luggage. And if you don\u2019t buy tickets beforehand you may stay at the stations or airports for a long time.<\/p>\n

St 5: Going abroad you can choose different cuisine. You can try different food: Italian or Chinese, French or Brazilian.<\/p>\n

St 6: To my mind the best place is your home. It is comfortable. Your friends and your family are near you. You can watch your favourite videos. You can choose your favourite food. You can speak your own language. Home is a fantastic place.<\/p>\n

Teacher: I quite agree with you. \u201cEast or West, home is best\u201d say the Englishmen. And today we, sitting at home, in Kazakhstan, can make a sightseeing tour to the United Kingdom. We shall speak about the capital of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is London. On the map you can see that London is situated on the River Thames. First of all let\u2019s read the words that help us at the lesson.<\/p>\n

    St 1: Ladies and gentlemen! I welcome you to London. Let me introduce myself. I\u2019m your group leader. I\u2019m glad to meet you on this double-decker bus.<\/p>\n

    We start from Trafalgar Square. It is the heart of tourists\u2019 London. This is where public gathering and political demonstrations take place. The tall column in the centre of the square commemorates Admiral Nelson\u2019s victory in the Battle of Trafalgar, where the British Navy defeated the Navy of Napoleon in 1805.<\/p>\n

The Greek God of Love. London\u2019s best-known theatres and cinemas and most famous restaurants are on Piccadilly Circus. In the square you can see people of many nationalities and hear a lot of different languages. Look right! We are passing Hyde Park.<\/p>\n

    St 3: Hyde Park is the largest park in the West End of London. In the 19th century it became a popular place for public meetings.

It was a fortress, a royal palace and later a prison. It is a museum now. The black ravens live in the gardens. A man looks after the ravens and give them meat in the morning and in the evening. At ten o\u2019clock every evening the guard lock the big doors for the night.<\/p>\n

    XIV. Travelling: Pros and Cons.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

    Teacher: Well done. The next part of our lesson is called \u201cTravelling: pros and cons.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Every year a lot of people from different countries all over the world travel abroad for their holidays. What do you think about tourism. Share your opinions about travelling.<\/p>\n

    St 1: I think it is wonderful to discover new places. Travelling is a part of people\u2019s education. You meet new culture, new traditions, new people. To go abroad you must know foriegn languages.<\/p>\n

    St 2: Sometimes your holiday won\u2019t be as you expected. You can\u2019t speak your own language. You must change your customs.<\/p>\n

    St 3: Frankly speaking tourism is a basis of the biggest business. Tourists spend a lot of money. You don\u2019t have to go to work or to school. Because you are on holiday! And you are happy!<\/p>\n

    St 4: Unfortunately, the real life differs from your dreams. You must stay in a long queus. You can lost you luggage. And if you don\u2019t buy tickets beforehand you may stay at the stations or airports for a long time.<\/p>\n

    St 5: Going abroad you can choose different cuisine. You can try different food: Italian or Chinese, French or Brazilian.<\/p>\n

    St 6: To my mind the best place is your home. It is comfortable. Your friends and your family are near you. You can watch your favourite videos. You can choose your favourite food. You can speak your own language. Home is a fantastic place.<\/p>\n

    Teacher: I quite agree with you. \u201cEast or West, home is best\u201d say the Englishmen. And today we, sitting at home, in Kazakhstan, can make a sightseeing tour to the United Kingdom. We shall speak about the capital of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is London. On the map you can see that London is situated on the River Thames.
