К учителю
В связи с переходом образования от знаниевого к компетентностному, встает
вопрос о такой организации учебного процесса, который позволяет сформировать
компетентностные умения учащихся. Механизмом организации такого процесса могут стать методики коллективного
способа обучения (КСО). При такой организации учебного процесса каждый ребенок
включен в учебный процесс в зоне ближайшего развития. На уроках английского языка
реализуется основное предназначение языка – средство межличностной коммуникации и
речевого взаимодействия с целью обмена и приобретения информации.

London, Capital of Great Britain London is the capital of Great Britain, its political, economic, and commercial centre. It is one of the
largest cities in the world and the largest city in Europe. Its population is about 8 million.
London is divided into several parts: the City, Westminster, the West End, and the East End.
The heart of London is the City, its financial and business centre. Numerous banks, offices, and firms are
situated there, including the Bank of England, the Stock Exchange, and the Old Bailey. Few people live here,
but over a million people come to the City to work. There are some famous ancient buildings within the City.
Perhaps the most striking of them is the St. Paul's Cathedral, the greatest of English churches. It was built in
the 17th century by Sir Christopher Wren. The Tower of London was founded by Julius Caesar and in 1066
rebuilt by William the Conqueror. It was used as a fortress, a royal palace, and a prison. Now it is a museum.
Westminster is the governmental part of London.
Nearly all English kings and queens have been crowned in Westminster Abbey. Many outstanding
statesmen, scientists, writers, poets, and painters are buried here: Newton, Darwin, Chaucer, Dickens,
Tennyson, Kipling, etc.
Across the road from Westminster Abbey is Westminster Palace, the seat of the British Parliament. The
Clock Tower of the Houses of Parliament is famous for its big bell, known as "Big Ben". Buckingham Palace
is the official residence of the Queen.
The West End is the richest and most beautiful part of London. It is the symbol of wealth and luxury. The
best hotels, shops, restaurants, clubs, and theatres are situated there.
The Trafalgar Square is the geographical centre of London. It was named in memory of Admiral Nelson's
victory in the battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The tall Nelson's Column stands in the middle of the square.
On the north side of the Trafalgar Square is the National Portrait Gallery. Not far away is the British
Museum — the biggest museum in London. It contains a priceless collection of ancient manuscripts, coins,
sculptures, etc, and is also famous for its library.

The Geographical Position of Great Britain
There are two large islands and several smaller ones, which lie in the northwest coast of Europe.
Collectively they are known as the British Isles. The largest island is called Great Britain. The smaller one is
called Ireland. Great Britain is separated from the continent by the English Channel. The country is washed by
the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Great Britain is separated from Belgium and Holland by the North Sea, and
from Ireland by the Irish Sea.
In the British Isles there are two states. One of them governs of the most of the island of Ireland. This state
is usually called the Republic of Ireland. The other state has authority over the rest of the territory. The official
name of this country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. But it is usually known by
a shorter name "The United Kingdom". The total area of Great Britain is 244,000 square km.
They say that the British love of compromise is the result of the country's physical geography. This may or
may not be true, but it certainly true that the land and climate in Great Britain have a notable lack of extremes.
The mountains in the country are not very high. It doesn't usually get very cold in the winter or very not in the
summer. It has no active volcanoes, and an earth tremors which does no more than rattle teacups in a few
houses which is reported in the national news media. The insular geographical position of Great Britain
promoted the development of shipbuilding, different training contacts with other countries.

English Meals
The English proverb says: every cook praises his own broth. One can not say English cookery is bad, but
there is not a lot of variety in it in comparison with European cuisine. The English are very particular about
their meals. The usual meals in England are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner.
Breakfast time is between seven and nine a.m. A traditional English breakfast is a very big meal. It consists
of juice, porridge, a rasher or two of bacon and eggs, toast, butter, jam or marmalade, tea or coffee.
Marmalade is made from oranges and jam is made from other fruit. Many people like to begin with porridge
with milk or cream and sugar, but no good Scotsman ever puts sugar on it, because Scotland is the home of
porridge. For a change you can have sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms, cold ham or perhaps fish.

But nowadays in spite of the fact that the English strictly keep to their meals many people just have cereal

The two substantial meals of the day are lunch and dinner. Lunch is usually taken at one o'clock. For many
people lunch is a quick meal. Office workers usually go to a cafe at this time. They take fish, poultry or cold
meat (beef, mutton, veal and ham), boiled or fried potatoes and all sorts of salad. They may have a mutton
chop or steak and chips, followed by biscuits and a cup of coffee. Some people like a glass of light beer with
lunch. Pubs also serve

jam
toast
or
or good, cheap food. School children can have a hot meal at school. Some of them just bring
a snack from home.
Tea is very popular among the English; it may almost be called their national drink. Tea is welcome in the
morning, in the afternoon and in the evening. The English like it strong and fresh made. The English put one
teaspoonful of tea for each person. Tea means two things. It is a drink and a meal. Some people have
afternoon tea, so called «high tea» with sandwiches, tomatoes and salad, a tin of apricots, pears or pineapples
and cakes, and, of course a cup of tea. That is what they call good tea. It is a substantial meal.
Cream teas are also popular. Many visitors, who come to Britain, find English instant coffee disgusting.
Dinner time is generally between six and eight p.m. The evening meal is the biggest and the main meal of the
day. Very often the whole family eats together. They begin with soup, followed by fish, roast chicken,
potatoes and vegetables, fruit and coffee.
On Sundays many families have a traditional lunch consisting of roast chicken, lamb or beef with salads,
vegetables and gravy.
The British enjoy tasting delicious food from other countries, for example, French, Italian, Indian and
Chinese food. Modern people are so busy that they do not have a lot of time for cooking themselves. So, the
British buy the food at the restaurant and bring it home already prepared to eat. So we can conclude that take
away meals are rather popular among the population. Eating has become rather international in Britain lately.

The Problem of Environmental Protection in Great Britain
Environmental protection is an international issue of great importance and Great Britain pays much
attention to it. There are nearly 500 000 protected buildings and 7000 conservation areas of architecture of
historical interest in Britain. The Government supports the work of the voluntary sector in preserving the
national heritage.
Total emissions of smoke in the air have fallen by 85 per cent since 1960. Most petrol stations in Britain
stock unleaded petrol. The Government is committed to the control of gases emission, which damage the
ozone layer.
They also contribute to the greenhouse effect, which leads to global warming and a rise in sea levels.
Britain stresses the need for studying the science of climate change.
Green belts are areas where land should be left open and free from urban sprawl. The Government attaches
great importance to their protection. National parks cover 9 per cent of the total land area of England and
Wales. The National Rivers Authority protects island waters in England and Wales.
In Scotland the River purification authorities are responsible for water pollution control. Great Britain takes

Great Britain
The full name of the country the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The United
Kingdom is situated on the British Isles. The British Isles consist of two large islands, Great Britain and
Ireland, and a great number of small islands. Their total area is over 314 000 sq. km. The British Isles are separated from the European continent by the North Sea and the English Channel. The western coast of Great
Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean
and the Irish Sea. Northern Ireland occupies one third of the island of Ireland. It borders on
the Irish Republic in the south. The island of Great Britain consists of three main parts:
England (the southern and middle part of the island), Wales (a mountainous peninsula in the West) and
Scotland (the northern part of the island).
There are no high mountains in Great Britain. In the north the Cheviots separate England from Scotland,
the Pennines stretch down North England along its middle, the Cambrian mountains occupy the greater part of
Wales and the Highlands of Scotland are the tallest of the British mountains. There is very little flat country
except in the region known as East Anglia. Most of the rivers flow into the North Sea. The Thames is. the
deepest and the longest of the British rivers. Some of the British greatest ports are situated in the estuaries of
the Thames, Mersey, Trent, T Clyde and Bristol Avon. Great Britain is not very rich in mineral resources, it
has some deposits of coal and iron ore and vast deposits of oil and gas that were discovered in the North Sea.
The warm currents of the Atlantic Ocean influence the climate of Great Britain. Winters are not severely
cold and. summers are rarely hot. The population of the United Kingdom is over 58 million people. The main
nationalities are: English, Welsh, Scottish and Irish. In Great Britain there are a lot of immigrants from former
British Asian and African colonies. Great Britain is a highly industrialized country. New industries have been
developed in the last three decades. The main industrial centres are London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds,
Liverpool, Glasgow and Bristol. The capital of the country is London. The United Kingdom is a parliamentary
monarchy.

monarchy монархия The Climate of Great Britain
Great Britain is situated on islands. It is washed by seas from all sides. That's why the climate and the
nature of Great Britain is very specific. The popular belief that it rains all the time in Britain is simply not true.
In fact, London gets no more rain in a year than most other major European cities. Generally speaking, the
further west you go, the more rain you get. The mild winters mean that snow is a regular feature of the higher
areas only. The winters are in general a bit colder in the east of the country than they are in the west. While in
summer, the south is slightly warmer and sunnier than the north. Besides Britain is famous for I fogs.
Sometimes fogs are so thick that it is impossible to see anything within 2 or 3 metres.
Why has Britain's climate got such bad reputation? Maybe it is for the same reason that British people
always seem to be talking about the weather. There is a saying that Britain doesn't have a climate, it only has
weather. You can never be sure of a fry day, though it may not rain very much altogether. There can be cool
and even cold days in July and some quite warm days in January.
The weather changes very often. Mark Twain said about America: "If you like the weather in New
England, just wait a few minutes" but it is more likely to have been said about England. The lack of extremes
is the reason why on the few occasions when it gets genuinely hot or freezing cold, the country seems to be
totally unprepared for it. A bit of snow, a few days of frost and the trains stop. working and the roads are
blocked. If the thermometer goes above 2ГС, people behave as if they were in Sahara and the temperature
makes frontpage headlines. These things happen so seldom that it is not worth organizing life to be ready for
them. Everyone who comes to Great Britain says that it looks like one great beautiful park. The British people
love their country and take care of it.

1. Why is the climate and the nature of Great Britain very specific?
2. What is Britain famous for?
3. Why has Britain's climate got such a bad reputation?
4. The weather in Britain is very changeable, isn't it?
5. Does it rain often?

The Weather in England
The English say «Other countries have a climate, in England we have weather*. It happens because the
weather changes more often than in other countries. British winters are mild and springs are cool because of
the winds that blow from the Atlantic Ocean. They blow 2 days out of every 3.
In spring sunshine and showers follow each other so often during the day that an umbrella or a raincoat is
absolutely necessary in England. The weather changes so frequently that it is difficult to forecast. It is not
unusual for people to complain that the weathermen were wrong.
The weather in spring is generally mild but sometimes the days are really fresh. Spring is the season when
nature awakens from its long winter sleep: the temperature grows, the sky becomes blue, and the sun grows
warmer. Everything is full of new life again. The days grow longer and warmer; the ground gets covered with
green grass.
Summer is the hottest season in England. The sunrays become hot, the days are long, and the nights are
short and warm. It's time for holidays, when people go to the seaside for sunbathing and swimming. It usually
gets hot in July. The summer nights are short, but they are wonderful.
As for autumn it isn't so nice. It's a season of winds and beautiful sunsets. The leaves turn yellow and
reddish and fall to the ground and the birds migrate to warm countries. In autumn the days become shorter. A
spell of sunny weather in September is called Indian summer or «Golden Autumn». In England September and
October are warm and dry, but November is the foggiest month. Late autumn is generally an unpleasant season. Everything begins to take a different colour. The trees look bare. The flowers have faded away. The
sky is overcast with low clouds. Everything looks gloomy.
In winter in England they can hardly forecast their weather. Sometimes it rains and sometimes it snows. In
England it isn't so cold in winter as in our country and they don't get so much snow as we get here in Ukraine.
The rivers in England never freeze, that's why children there go skating very seldom. When there are 8
degrees of frost in England everyone complains of hazards.
Questions:
1. What do the English say about their weather?
2. What winters and springs do the English have?
3. Are umbrella and raincoat absolutely unnecessary things in England?
4. What is the hottest season in England?
5. What people do in summer?
6. What happens in autumn?
7. What weather do the English have in winter?
8. Is it as cold in England as in our country?
