           В процессе обучения по курсу «Enjoy English» в 10 классе реализуются следующие цели и задачи:

1. развитие иноязычной коммуникативной компетенции на английском языке в совокупности её составляющих - речевой, языковой, социокультурной, компенсаторной, учебно-познавательной;

- речевая компетенция – развиваются сформированные на базе начальной школы коммуникативные умения в говорении, аудировании, чтении, письме;

- языковая компетенция — овладение новыми языковыми средствами (фонетическими, орфографическими, лексическими, грамматическими) в соответствии с темами, сферами и ситуациями общения, отобранными для 10 класса; освоение знаний о языковых явлениях изучаемого языка, разных способах выражения мысли в родном и изучаемом языке;

- социокультурная компетенция — школьники приобщаются к культуре и реалиям стран, говорящих на английском языке, в рамках более широкого спектра сфер, тем и ситуаций общения, отвечающих опыту, интересам учащихся 10 класса, соответствующих их психологическим особенностям; развивается их способность и готовность использовать английский язык в реальном общении; формируется умение представлять свою собственную страну, ее культуру в условиях межкультурного общения посредством ознакомления учащихся с соответствующим страноведческим, культуроведческим и социолингвистическим материалом, широко представленным в учебном курсе;

- компенсаторная компетенция — развиваются умения в процессе общения выходить из затруднительного положения, вызванного нехваткой языковых средств за счет перифраза, использования синонимов, жестов и т. д.;

- учебно-познавательная компетенция — развиваются желание и умение самостоятельного изучения английского языка доступными им способами (через Интернет, с помощью справочников и т. п.), развиваются   специальные учебные умения (пользоваться словарями, интерпретировать информацию текста и др.), умение пользоваться современными информационными технологиями, опираясь на владение английским языком.

            Продолжается развитие и воспитание школьников средствами предмета "Иностранный язык": понимание учащимися роли изучения языков международного общения в современном поликультурном мире, ценности родного языка как элемента национальной культуры; осознание важности английского языка как средства познания, самореализации и социальной адаптации; воспитание толерантности по отношению к иным языкам и культуре.

Раздел 2. ОБЩАЯ ХАРАКТЕРИСТИКА УЧЕБНОГО ПРЕДМЕТА

     Предмет «иностранный язык» входит в образовательную область «Филология». Основное назначение предмета «иностранный язык» состоит в формировании коммуникативной компетенции, т. е. способности и готовности осуществить иноязычное межличностное и межкультурное общение с носителями языка.

     Программа конкретизирует содержание предметных тем образовательного стандарта, дает распределение учебных часов по темам курса и последовательность изучения тем и языкового материала с учетом логики учебного процесса, возрастных особенностей учащихся, межпредметных и внутрипредметных связей.

             В рабочую программу по английскому языку включены уроки по проектной методике как способ организации речевого взаимодействия учащихся. Использование метода проектов на уроке способствует акцентированию деятельностного подхода в целостном коммуникативно-ориентированном характере языкового образования. Кроме того, нашли отражение также уроки с компьютерной поддержкой как средство формирования информационно-коммуникативной компетенции учащихся.

Раздел 3. МЕСТО УЧЕБНОГО ПРЕДМЕТА В УЧЕБНОМ ПЛАНЕ

Данная рабочая программа предназначена для реализации процесса обучения школьников в условиях общеобразовательного учреждения из расчета 105 часов (3 часа в неделю) в 10 классе.

Раздел 4. ЦЕННОСТНЫЕ ОРИЕНТИРЫ СОДЕРЖАНИЯ УЧЕБНОГО ПРЕДМЕТА "Иностранный язык"

Ценностные ориентиры составляют содержание, главным образом, воспитательного аспекта. В предлагаемом курсе воспитание связано с культурой и понимается как процесс обогащения и совершенствования духовного мира учащегося через познание и понимание новой культуры. Факты культуры становятся для учащегося ценностью, то есть приобретают социальное, человеческое и культурное значение, становятся ориентирами деятельности и поведения, связываются с познавательными и волевыми аспектами его индивидуальности, определяют его мотивацию, его мировоззрение и нравственные убеждения, становятся основой формирования его личности, развития его творческих сил и способностей.

Будучи связанным с культурой, основанный на ней, воспитательный аспект вытекает из сущности коммуникативной технологии, которая основана на системе функционально взаимообусловленных принципов, объединённых единой стратегической идеей: принципов овладения иноязычной культурой через общение, речемыслительной активности, личностной индивидуализации, ситуативности, функциональности и новизны. Все эти принципы несут в атмосфере иноязычного общения воспитательный заряд и поэтому вовлекают учителя и учащихся в глубинное и духовное общение, которое, в сущности, и является воспитательным процессом.

Воспитательный потенциал реализуется через культуроведческое содержание используемых материалов. Кроме того, учитель несёт в себе содержание образования, и именно это культурное, духовное содержание становится одним из главных компонентов образовательного процесса. Учитель как интерпретатор чужой культуры и носитель родной должен делать всё от него зависящее, чтобы сформировать у учащихся ту систему ценностей, которая соответствует идеалу образования – человеку духовному.

         Text for listening:

Have you ever played netball?  Would you like to find out more about this sport, which is popular in Britain, the USA, New Zealand and a lot of other countries? Netball is similar to basketball, but this game is younger. Actually, is emerged in the nineteenth century as a women’s sport, as a lighter version of  basketball. The ball is really a bit lighter and the court is probably a little bit smaller, but it doesn’t diminish the popularity of the game. On the contrary, unlike its senior brother, netball is accessible to non-professional players, which makes it a very popular outdoor leisure activity. Though it started as an indoor women’s sport,  now it played widely on the open court, on lawns and beaches by men, women and kids.

Our local netball team Silver ball is three years old this Saturday. And you are very welcome to our beach birthday party. You’ll find out some amazing facts about netball history and will learn the rules of the game. You can also enjoy playing netball on the beach with the members of our team. The celebration also includes cake cutting and photo taking, and lots of sport activities on the beach. The most enthusiastic participants will be awarded presents. The main prize of the party – the Silver Ball, which is actually made of milk chocolate, will go to the most first time netballer. Come and bring your friends and families with you! Don’t miss out!

School forever?

Classes and homework are not only for the children. Not any more. This is the opinion of one of the online courses providers Jason Underwood. He believes education is going to become a lifelong process for those who are at school and university now. The professional world is very competitive nowadays, and to keep up with the rivals one needs to update qualifications on a regular basis. If a person wants to go further, to get promoted, and to keep his skilled job, he’ll have to master his skilled job, he’ll have to master his skills and upgrade his qualifications regularly.

 The job-for- life tendency seems to have ceased to exist. The world is changing rapidly: specialists of your profession are in great demand now, but soon you may find the job market has changed, and you may need to obtain another qualification to avoid being left behind.

It’s obvious that a person who has a full time job can’t give it up in order to attend classes. The internet is the resource which enables people to combine work and study. Online courses provide vast opportunities in education and development to everyone, regardless of their age, job location. Jason Underwood believes that the technological advantages of distant education are evident and will soon replace the old model of education with its compulsory lecture and seminar attendance. “If you do an online course,” he says, “you can just log on, i.e. enter the educational resource by typing your login, and listen to the lecture , or read the  printed version of the lecture. You have access to lots of audio and video topic-related clips you can watch them again and again. You can record them for later use in case you wish to run through them for your exam. And if anything needs qualification or if you’ve got questions, you can apply to your tutor or the lecture via the e-mail. And even when it’s time to sit your course exam, there is often no need to come to the real classroom – you can submit assignments and take exams via the Internet”

Access to the libraries without commuting and studying at a convenient time is a real advantage for students at any ages, and absolutely vital for adult students. Though not all distance courses are run quite effectively yet, in regard to lifetime education the concept of lectures and tutorials held entirely in the classroom has already gone.

1. Jason Underwood says that to survive in the competition people should

1. upgrade the electronic equipment regularly.
2. watch how their competitors are doing.
3. upgrade their professional l knowledge.

2. The author of the article believes that the job market

1. is expanding rapidly in all professional fields.
2. tends to offer opportunities for everyone.
3. is getting more dynamic and less predictable.

3. The author of the article believes that

1. all age groups will benefit from the Internet-based learning.
2. younger generation will benefit from the Internet-based learning most.
3. the senior professionals will benefit from distant learning most.

4. Jason Underwood believes the  distant courses

1. will be used instead of face-to-face classes
2. cannot be used by schoolchildren or younger learners.
3. will take  apart of traditional model of education

5. The main advantage of distant courses in Mr Underwood’s opinion is that

1. students have permanent access to all materials.
2. people are ready to accept electronic innovations.
3. the time of distant learning hasn’t come yet.

Interview: More and more people are in computer games nowadays. In affects our life on different ways. Why you think this past time, or habit, is gaining more and more popularity with different social and age groups?

Computer games developer: You actually hit the point when said what it’s popular with different people. There used to be a stereotype that an average computer game player is a scruffy teenager who sticks to the screen and manipulates monsters there. He is game addicted and can’t think about anything else but computer games. That lifestyle, naturally, results in his performance at school and makes him unsociable as he doesn’t have much practice in real life communication…

I.: Lots of people think like this. Are you saying that this is not true?

C. g. d.: It’s not. The statistics say that the average game player is much older – in his late twenties and the tendency aims to thirty. Though at the present moment majority of players are men, women become more and more involved into.

I.: And thought that the most games were designed for men…Shooting and driving games…

C. g. d.: They used to be. But computer games are getting more sophisticated and exquisite. Action is combined with detailed and even refined graphics. Games can be very impressive if they combine a good plot, good visual and good music.

I.: Music?

C. g. d.: Sure. Music is the essential component of a good computer game. Music is very important to make the game involving and exciting.

I.: If we go like this, we can come to the conclusion that the computer games can be defined as a new form of art…

C. g. d.: And why not? It’s hard to believe, but when the cinematograph was invented, it had lots of opponents. Some people said that the films were invented to entertain the public and divert them from real life problems and from real, serious art like painting, music and theatre. The theater, by the way had lived through the accusations of the same kind, but the earlier. It wasn’t prestigious at all to be an actor, you know.

I.: Yes you would ever say that the theatre and the cinema aren’t serious enough to be called art.

C. g. d.: I dare say that the computer games have even more chances to win the public.

I.: Really?

C. g. d.: I mean that the conventional forms of art, like music and theater, don’t allow any interaction. We can only admire things other people have done. We can interpret them in different ways, deducing what the author’s message might have been. We can criticize them, but… but we can’t change anything. The conventional forms of art don’t allow any interaction. We are bound to be passive and can either accept a piece of art or not, but can never change it.

I.: And the computer game case…

C. g. d.: Right. Some games are wonderful because they let you create your own world. Your every step, every click of the mouse counts and matters. Some game characters are so skillfully designed that you have an impression that it’s not you who manipulates them , but that they have their own intellect and respond consciously.

I.: Which drifts us from the cultural topic to the scientific issue of creating artificial intellect…

C. g. d.: You are right, let’s get back to…

Read the article about football fans and choose the correct answer. Transfer your answer to the table.

Most people would agree that football refers to the most well-known and popular games in the world. The official history of football covers almost a century and a half. It started when the Football Association in England was founded in 1863. In fact, football is older. By 1863 people had already been playing with a ball for many centuries in many countries. According to some historic evidence, a game similar to football was popular on the territory of contemporary Britain in the second century A. D.  In spite of the fact that football is wide spread all over the world, many people still associate it with the British Isles.

The words “football” and the “the British Isles” evoke another phrase – “football fans”. These are the British who are considered to be the most devoted, enthusiastic and… wild fans. So wild sometimes, that their behaviour leads to violent conflicts and vandalism. To be fair, not only British fans can be violent. Unfortunately, in many other countries one can see absolutely outrageous news of burnt and crashed cars, smashed shop windows and bus stops, and crowds of agitated, inadequate people in the streets. Alcohol often promotes their aggressive behavior and turns it into violent fights, so the winners’ delighted fans and the losers’ upset suppoters may end up in the same hospital or into the police station.

Law abiding people, who attend football games or who just witness football hooliganism in the streets, feel indignant about such behavior which threatens public safety and the reputation of the game in general. Most people believe that the authorities should do something to eliminate football-related hooliganism. Probably the easiest way to do it is to ban the  game as the cause of such behaviour?

“No, I don’t think so, ” says Martine Clint, 39, a long-term supporter of  Manchester United. “Football is something special in my life and I don’t think I’ll be able to do without it. I keep track all the news about my club, I know everything about the players, they are part of my family and my life. And you just want to take it away from me?

“No, banning the game is not the option. Lots of people need the game agitation. For e, it’s a good way to express all bottled up emotions, it helps escape the routine and lets some fresh air in my life”. Surprisingly enough, but that was an opinion of a successful business lady, who runs her own business and raises two little kids.

“It’s not the game that should be banned or modified. The result is not with game but with people.” Jack Williamson sounds very wise for his 15 years. I love the game and I want to be able to see it in the future, but I think that alcohol should never be sold or allowed at the stadium. It heats the conflicts and provokes fights”

Those brief interviews demonstrate that people’s affections are with football and though they feel very negative about anti-social behavior, they are not going to sacrifice the game.

On the positive note, the statistics say that the number of football –related crimes and arrests have been going down and if the tendency persists we’ll probably have a hooliganism- free football.

Clare: Johnny! It’s great to see you!

John: Hi, Clare!

Clare: Enjoying yourself?

John: Yes. It’s a great place! I’ve never been in this bowling club before…

Clare: Haven’t you? Neither have. It’s a very stylish place, isn’t it? Looks like an old pirate ship, doesn’t it?  

John: Do you mean the interior? Yeah, it gives you a feeling of some marine adventures. And the people who work there are all wearing sailor’s hats…  Why are you here? Any special occasion?

Clare: It’s my birthday.

John: Many happy returns!

Clare: Thanks! And you?

It’s my dad’s birthday. and we are having a family party here. There they are …Right near the right bowling alley.

Clare:  Wow, you have two brothers and two sisters! You are quite a big family. and your parents look very young for their age. How old is your dad today?

John: Thirty-five.

Clare: Pardon? This means that your parents got you, he was only nineteen?

John: No, ne was twenty-six.

Clare: look, I’ve always been hopeless at Maths, but not to that extent. I can subtract sixteen from thirty-five.

John: But I’m not kidding. My parents adopted me when I was seven.

Clare:  Adopted? This means that they are not your real parents?

John: They are my real parents. They can’t be anybody more real to me then they.

Clare: I’m sorry I didn’t mean that… I just meant that… Have you ever tried to find out who you are and where you’ve come from, and to restore your history somehow?

John: I’ve tried. But in vain. I was about three when I became able to identify myself. I just can’t remember what was before it. And when I try to get back to my early years, the orphanage house is everything I can remember.

Clare: Gosh… And didn’t you ask the orphanage stuff any questions?

John: I did. But they weren’t able to find any paper trail to my relatives. My mum, my today’s mum, tried to do it for me too, but we found nothing.

Clare: And how did you meet your present family?

John: Oh, that’s was funny. They moved to his town from the South of the country ten years ago. And my mum got a job in the orphanage house as a doctor. Her own son Tommy was only two and once she had to take to her job, as she had nobody to look after him. He wasn’t very quiet and … made so much noise that it was impossible for mum to examine the kids. She asked me to look after Tommy for a while, and for some reason we got on very well together. He looked happy and pleased and I enjoyed playing with him too. Somehow he became my little friend, I visited him at home and soon… my friend became my little brother.

Clare: Sound like a very good old film…

John: Then our family got larger as my two little sisters were born. And as for the brother… my parents adopted him from the same orphanage house.

Clare: They … your parents are just wonderful!

John: They are. Not everyone, I reckon, is as lucky as I am.

Read the text and fill in the gaps with sentences A- G. There is one sentence you do need. Transfer your answer to the table.

Pets create a very special atmosphere at home, they add to the feeling of coziness and safety. They help us cope with stress and, being depended and helpless in our world, make us feel important and worthwhile.          They wouldn’t survive in our flats and houses if we didn’t bring them food from the pet shops and assential vitamins from the clinics. They need us because a dog needs walking, a horse needs rubbing, and a gold fish wants water in the tank to be clean and clear.

Some psychologists say that people who are lonely and non-confident tend to exotic pets. Those people hope that an unusual pet can add to their identity, put them aside from the crowd and help gain popularity with other people.              We pretend that we treat them as a member of the family and try to impose our love on them. However, sooner or later the question emerges: do we have the right to sort out our own problems at animals’ expense?

Scientists and environmentalists speak strongly against the so-called pet lovers, who adopt a kitten or a puppy just to please the kid or because of some impulse. Even the animals which have been living with the people for centuries and have already adjusted to our world, need much more than their owner’s love. They need care based on knowledge, otherwise they’ll cause problems to you and their life will turn into a miserable experience. Before adopting a little hamster you need to find out everything about its eating habits and peculiarities of the cage housing. You need also to be aware that the pet requires every day care and that you may find it monotonous and boring.          

           Milagres, an Australian koala, could be considered a lucky one as she got to the zoo in the time for the vets to save her. A European tourist had illegally exported her from Australia, as he was obsessed with the idea of keeping that cute animal in his backyard. “I was going to plant a Eucalyptus tree in my back garden, and I thought that keeping a koala wouldn’t be such a problem,” explained he later. That was a dangerous misconception.             It can’t digest hard and thick eucalyptus leaves, and that’s why you need to have from one to six hundred eucalyptus trees to keep your koala happy and healthy. The number of trees depends on the climate – the more humid the climate is, the less tress you need (within the range given above).          

Little koala Milagres exemplifies a big problem caused by ignorant pet owners. Wild animals are neither toys nor interior design accessories and putting them in a wrong environment makes them suffer and eventually kills them.

1. When exotic animals are kept as pets, ignorance is even more dangerous and cruel.
2. Though koalas’ eating habits have been studied by scientists, the information about their diet is fragmentary and incomplete.
3. This is why lots of crocodiles, snakes and lizards, gorillas cockatoos become inhabitants of densely populated, traffic jammed megalopolises.
4. Do we have the right to keep a crock in the bath, or a dolphin in the swimming pool?
5. Apparently, only zoo specialists are able to provide the animal with an appropriate menu.
6. We understand that the most fierce and dangerous creatures are vulnerable and helpless in the world.
7. In fact, the koala is very particular about the diet – it eats only very fresh green leaves, springs and sprouts.

Hi! I am Martin Austin, Director of studies of Vocational centre, and I’m going to talk to you about your future prospects and opportunities. You have already thought about it yourself, haven’t you? And this is quite natural, as you are completing your school education and it’s the right time for making plans for the future.

There are lots of interesting jobs and occupations, and it’s not easy to choose from the range. When I was your age, I wanted to be a marine biologist. Years before it, my dream job had been a job of lawyer. That was because my friend’s father was a lawyer and Sam, my friend in the junior school, came to school by exquisite red Porsche, which I envied tremendously. Later, I understood that becoming a lawyer cannot guarantee you a lucrative career. Some lawyers earn fortunes, but many of them earn very low salaries, if any. There were lots of other dream jobs in my life, and here I am, a teacher, who’s been working with students for almost twenty years and has never regretted that.

Right, today I suggest that you look at your dream jibs from all angles. Are you sure that your assumptions about the job are correct? Will you manage to earn enough to raise your own family? And what are the job prospects for you after graduation?  Good education and no job doesn’t sound very appealing to a young person, does it?

No, I don’t mean talking you out of going to university. If you feel that you are doing the right thing, be determined and do it. But I want you to be aware of alternative prospects.

Our centre promotes vocational education. We provide post-secondary level vocational education. This means, you can study with us as soon as you complete your school education. The range of qualifications you can be granted there is very wide. You can learn skills and become a nurse, air controller, stewardess, mechanic, cable television servicer, engineering technician and so on. We teach skills and job relat5ed theory. This is what’s you needed for the functional society you are going to live in. Nowadays, most industries suffer from a shortage of qualified workers. Our students learn necessary skills and become very professional in their field. They literary snapped up by large companies and experience unemployment and its consequences.

There’s one more thing I’d like to mention in my talk. Vocational education is not easy. It’s physically demanding. It requires an ability to concentrate, to focus on the job. It requires the will to master your skills. When you succeed you feel worthwhile, you feel rewarded and it inspires you to do much better.

1. Research into alternative, clean energy is a hot issue for mass media and politician. “Clean” implies that no harm is done to the environment when the energy is produced. It sounds like a worthy mission for the humanity – to invent and implement technologies which allows us to enjoy all the technologies society commodities being concurrently nature conscious, i.e. to keep water, land and air clean for our descendants/ and old native Americans’ wisdom say “We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children” and the borrowed should be run with care and returned in a good working state.
2. Most people do understand that the burning huge amounts of oil and gas is the way to nowhere. We’ll either end up with a devastating ecological catastrophe or our industries will collapse when we run out of oil and gas supplies, which are not renewable and are expected to run out relatively soon. The solution was provided by science fiction writers a century ago – solar and wind energy should be used instead of fuel. However, the manual on how to produce and store it in large quantities hasn’t been provided yet.
3. It’s true that nowadays it’s still too early to say that we are ready to switch to a clean energy. Our industries have got used to energy overconsumption, and people are unlikely to consent to give up their privilege of comfort. However, it would be wrong to state that nothing is being done and what we are not moving to our goal. There is evidence that he solar energy can be used in real businesses and it doesn’t lessen the business success.
4. Solar Sailor has been successfully operating in Sydney, Australia, since 2000. It’s a large ferry used for public transportation and tourists cruises. In spite of the fact that the ferry moves slower than the others, it’s particularly popular with the people, tourists especially. Solar Sailor is used for cocktails and dining cruises, for corporate and family events like wedding and anniversary parties. It’s also used for taking people from one place as a conventional transport means, which holds as many as 80 people on board.
5. Solar sailor is a renewable energy hybrid able to use solar, wind, battery and liquid petroleum gas, either individually or in combination. The unique feature of the ferry is its “solar wings”. Inspired by insects, which use their wings as solar collectors, the Solar Sailor’s wings are able to angle towards the Sun. They can be stowed away in a storm, or when not wanted. The solar wings or solar panels can charge the ferry’s batteries in four hours, and they can power the ferry independently for up to six-hour cruise, day or night.

The length of the ferry is about 21.5metres and it can move at a maximum speed of 10-12 knots, which is used around 20 km per hour (1 knot equals 18.7 km per hour).

6. The speed may not look very impressive, but Solar Sailor creates low noise   and no air and water pollution. It may be considered a baby step in clean technology development but every solid plan has to walk through baby steps.

1. Technical characteristics of the solar energy device.
2. The engineers’ comments on the solar technologies implementations.
3. A possible solution for the “alternative energy’s case”
4. Good intention and the real situation.
5. Alternative energy technologies’ prospects for the future.
6. The reason to look for the alternative sources of energy.
7. The evidence that solar energy can be used by businesses
