Самым продуктивным средством развития коммуникативной и социокультурной компетенций является возможность окунуться в эту атмосферу, традиции, обычаи, нормы и модели поведения. Средствами обучения являются учебные тексты: тематические, страноведческие, художественные тексты,которые должны соответствовать интересам и возрасту учащихся, быть максимально приближённым к естественной ситуации.

The tallest
Chicago
skyscraper
At the time the Sears tower was
constructed in 1974, it was the
world's tallest building,
eclipsing New York's twin-
towered World Trade Center by 25
meters (83 ft). It would keep the title
of tallest building in the world until
the Petronas twin towers in Kuala
Lumpur, Malaysia were constructed
in 1997.

The height
There was much discussion on
whether the Petronas Towers are
actually taller than the Sears Tower
as the height of the antennas on the
Petronas Towers are included in the
total height, while the height of the
antennas are not included in the
height calculation of the Sears Tower
as they are not considered an actual
part of the building.

The Structure
With the construction of the 508
meters tall Taipei 101 in 2004 this
discussion became irrelevant.
However, when in November 2013
New York's One WTC was officially
declared taller than the Sears Tower -
grabbing the coveted title of the
tallest building in the US, the issue
was brought up once again: one
WTC's rather pathetic spire was
included in the calculation of its
height, so that even though the Sears
Tower's roof is a substantial 25 meters
(83 feet) higher than One WTC's, the
latter is now officially 99 meters (325
ft) taller.

Anyhow, the Sears tower is still the
tallest Chicago skyscraper,
exceeding the height of the number
two, the Trump International Hotel
and Tower by 27 meters (89 ft) and
the Aon Center by 96 meters (315
ft).

The nine tubes all
reach forty-nine
stories.
The nine tubes all reach forty-nine
stories. At that point, two tubes end.
The other rise up to the sixty-fifth
floor. From the sixty-sixth to the
ninetieth floor, the tower has the
shape of a crucifix. Two tubes,
creating a rectangular, reach the full
height of 442 meters (1451ft

Wind Load
The result is an interesting tower,
which looks different from all angles.
The construction, designed by Fazlur
Kahn (1929-82), has other
advantages : the construction with
separate tubes provides lateral
strengths to withstand the strong
Chicago wind loads, as each tube
only needs to take a part of the
pressure.

Willis Tower
The tower was named after Sears,
Roebuck and Co., an American chain
of Department Stores which was
headquartered here. Sears sold the
building in 1993 after moving to the
suburbs. The building's name was
left unchanged until July 16, 2009,
when it was renamed Willis Tower
for one of the skyscraper's tenants,
a British insurance firm. The move
was met with local opposition
however, and some even started
online petitions to protest the name
change.
