Викторина.

Одной из наиболее актуальных проблем методики преподавания иностранного языка в школе является совершенствование форм обучения иностранному языку. Важно найти оптимальное сочетание индивидуальной, групповой и фронтальной форм работы при обучении иностранному языку, а также определить индивидуальные особенности личности учащегося.

Одним из путей , ведущих к повышению интереса учащихся к изучаемому предмету, является разнообразие средств и приемов работы на уроке, использование активных форм обучения. К таким формам обучения целесообразно прибегать на итоговых уроках, когда у учащихся есть необходимый запас слов, когда они получили нужную информацию по данной теме.

Можно выделить следующие типы интерактивных уроков:

  1. Урок – деловая игра 6. Урок - фантазия

  2. Урок – консультация 7. Урок - игра

  3. Урок – аукцион 8. Урок - зачет

  4. Урок – концерт 9. Урок – игра «Телемост»

  5. Урок – экскурсия 10. Урок – викторина и т.д.

Викторина – одна из форм развития творческой активности учащихся. Она проводится после изучения темы и является логическим завершением работы над ней. Цель проведения викторины: закрепить и автоматизировать изученную на уроках лексику и речевые образцы при употреблении их в уже встречавшихся и новых ситуациях, побудить учащихся к творческому отбору материала, предложенному учебником, учителем или выбранного самим учеником, приучить учащихся сосредотачивать внимание на смысле высказывания, развивать логическое мышление. «Стоит ли прибегать к интерактивным формам обучения на уроках иностранного языка»? Можно утвердительно ответить «Стоит»», так как изучение иностранного языка должно привести обучаемого к овладению речевыми умениями (пониманию речи на слух, разговору, чтению и письму), реализующими коммуникативную сущность языка. А всему этому интерактивные формы обучения только благоприятно способствуют.

Robert Burns


R. Burns is a famous poet of Scotland. He was born in Alloway, Ayrshire. His father William Burns was a gardener on a small estate, whose greatest wish was to give his children the best possible education. He himself began to teach his son Robert and his brother to read and write.

His family was very poor and when Robert was 13, he had to work on the farm, for his father was growing old. There were hard times. Robert was often ill because of hard work and little food. But despite it fifteen-year-old Robert began to write. Burns wrote a lot of poems in English, but his best verses are written in the Scottish dialect. He depicts the life he knew with tenderness, understanding. His poems touch the heart and soul of every reader.

Burns died at the age of 37. Robert Burns is Scotland’s national poet and January 25- the day of his birth is celebrated in many countries of the world.

Burns is very dear to all the people. His poem and songs has been translated into many languages.

Pantomimes are very popular in Britain at Christmas. Most big towns and cities have their own pantomime. This is a humorous musical play usually performed in the open air. A pantomime is usually based on a traditional story which everyone knows, and the show itself is very exciting, with lots of jokes, songs and dancing. Sometimes the audience takes part in the performance, too.

The tradition began over two hundred years ago and has been a part of Christmas celebrations ever since. At first it was merely an entertainment for children, but now adults enjoy it as much. Of course, there have been a lot of changes over the years. Some elements, like joking and singing, were added, but the basic plot has remained the same. Every pantomime must have three main characters: a young man, a young lady and a “dame”. The first two always marry at the end, and the dame, the comic figure, tries to prevent them from doing it.

There are all possible kinds of pantomimes, and a lot of famous singers or comedians take part in them. Thus the old tradition is enriched with modern ideas and fresh forces, which is so typical of the British.

TEST R9-2

Most British housewives love window shopping. This is a pastime when you just walk round the shops and look at all those beautiful things that are displayed in every shop window. Some women can spend the whole day looking at everything they meet on their way. But it would be a mistake to say that men are against this kind of shopping. You will certainly see a lot of unmarried couples, husbands and wives, or just friends wandering about different stores without any idea of buying something in the end.

Shop managers know about this feature of people’s character and try to benefit from it. They usually place the most unusual, most beautiful or most attractive items in their shop windows to attract as many customers as possible. Sometimes you’ll see something which has absolutely nothing to do with things you can buy in the shops. For example, if you see a sheep dummy pretending that it peacefully eats grass, do not expect to buy nice piece of mutton or, say, a toy sheep. Most probably this shop sells wool and woolen clothes.

There is another point about shop windows. As managers make them look better to attract people, streets become more colorful and picturesque.

Choose the best sentence ending (a, b, c or d) which is true to the text

    1. Window shopping

  1. is not very popular in Europe;

  2. is a nice pastime for some people;

  3. is hated by men and older people;

  4. is more difficult in the evening.

    1. A manager must pay special attention to the shop windows because

  1. they attract customers;

  2. they are colorful and picturesque;

  3. everyone likes window shopping;

  4. everyone can throw a stone at the glass.

    1. Things that are displayed in shop windows

  1. sometimes frighten nervous customers;

  2. sometimes have nothing to do with the goods;

  3. sometimes look dirty;

  4. sometimes pretend to be something else.

    1. One of the reasons why window shopping is good is that

  1. it keeps managers busy most of the time;

  2. it is the best pastime for young people;

  3. it protect the environment;

  4. it helps to make streets look better.



TEST R9-3

Read the text and do the tasks that follow

Christmas in England is the biggest celebration of the year. Quite unlike the New Year’s Day which is usually dedicated to big and noisy parties Christmas is a home and family holiday. In Western Europe, people usually have special Christmas holidays which last for about ten days. These are used to get ready properly.

Christmas time is the busiest for housewives. Most shops have season sales so they get a wonderful chance to buy lots of useful things and presents much cheaper. You just have to know what you want to buy and where you have to go. There are special services delivering Christmas trees in special pots. These firms take care of the environment and present wild trees from being cut down.

Small children believe that on Christmas night Santa Claus travels from chimney to chimney on his deer and brings presents to everyone. That is why to get a present you have to put up a sock next to the fireplace. Of course, in modern houses most flats are equipped with central heating and have no fireplace, that is why children usually put their gift socks next to their beds. This is quite comfortable because you can see what Santa has brought to you as soon as you wake up.

Choose the best sentence ending (a, b, c or d) which is true to the text

    1. Christmas time is the busiest for housewives because

  1. they have to work and do the housework;

  2. they have no time to get ready for the celebration;

  3. they have to buy presents and things in sales;

  4. their families eat more on these day.

2. The difference between New Year’s Day and Christmas is that

a) no one gets presents on New Year’s Day in England;

b) New Year’s day is a public holiday while Christmas is a family one;

c) you don’t have to buy a Christmas tree for New Year’s Day;

d) people don’t have holiday on New Year’s Day.

3. According to the legends Santa Claus

a) gets into a house through the chimney;

b) never gives presents to those who live in modern flats;

c) brings gift socks with him;

d) wakes children up to ask how they behaved.

4. Christmas sales

a) are held every three months;

b) are a way to protect the environment;

c) can’t be organized to sell Christmas trees;

d) are a wonderful opportunity to buy things cheaper.
