1.НАЧАЛО УРОКА.

T. -Good morning! Sit down! Who is absent today? You look so excited! Relax, please1 Don’t worry! At first I’d like you to answer my question/ Do you have a favourite city? Is it the city, where you were born, or where you live or a city you have only visited once but which you would like to go back to again?

(3-4 pupils)

T. – I see each of us has its own favourite place, & it doesn’t matter what it is – a city, a town or a village, we have definite reasons to love them. But in my opinion it’s more interesting to visit new countries, cities, towns & of course countryside. Our theme today is “A day in London”. We are having a very unusual lesson today.

Dear guests! Welcome to our non- standard lesson! I hope that our students will do their best to show the knowledge about London:

                                            “Tell me, I forget; show me,  

                                                            I remember;

                                             Involve me, I understand”.

This is an epigraph of our lesson. We want to take you on an exciting journey through the whole London. So, let’s split into 2 groups: guides & tourists. Our tourists are… Our guides are…

2.ВСТРЕЧА В АЭРОПОРТУ. 

P. – Attention! Attention! A group of Russian students are requested to go to Exit 3.

P. – Hello, everybody! We are your guides. Our names are… Welcome to London, the capital og great Britain. What languages do you speak? 

P. – Russian, English, of course. Yes, the English language.

P. - OK. How was the flight?

P. – Everything was wonderful.

        A bit tired after the flight. 

        It’s my first time here. I’m very lucky to be in this country & in this city.

P. – How many are you there in the group?

P. – there are six people on my list: 3 ladies & 3 gentlemen. So there are … let me see…one, two…

P. – So 2 people are missing. They are ill.

P. Pleased to meet you all. These are our visiting cards. Here are our addresses & telephone numbers< just in case.

P. – that’s very kind of you.

P.- Come along & off we go.

1. В АВТОБУСЕ.

P. – Ladies & gentlemen ! Are you comfortable?

P. - OK. All right.  Everybody is wonderful.

 P. – We wish you a pleasant day in London. Every sightseeing tour of a big city includes visits to places of historic interest. What can excite the visitors’ interest – the magnificent architecture, the associations with great events or the lives of outstanding men.

P. – But in my opinion first-time visitors to a city usually want to see the famous places they have read or heard about.

P. – This is natural. But there are many more attractions which it would be a pity to miss. Now a few words about our programme.

P. – The schedule is very busy – exhibitions, museums, historical places. You are a large social programme.

P. – now we are going to take you to the hotel.

 P. – What hotel are we staying at?

P. – It’s Wellington Hotel. But as you are foreign tourists before we do this we’ll tell you a few words about our traffic

2. ТРАНСПОРТ.

P. – Traffic in L. differs from that of the continent. In England they keep to the left but not to the right.

P – As far as I remember in England people say: “If you go left, you go right. If you go right you go wrong.”

P- Right you are. In L. you can see many buses, cars, & taxis in the streets. The English buses are often called double-deckers, because they are very high & have seats on the upper & lower decks. The L. buses first came into the streets in 1829. The double-deckers of today are speedy & comfortable, but they seem to be very clumsy moving slowly through the endless line of taxis & cars of all sizes & models. There are a large number of routes in L. The main places the bus goes to are shown on the front of the bus.

P – Oh, look, but there are also green & brown buses.

P- There are also green one-storey buses, they run from L. to the countryside. Brown buses belong to British railways. But there are no trams in L. since 1952. The main transport is the underground.

P – Excuse me, but as far as I know the L. the l. underground is often called the tube, because it looks like a long narrow tube.

P- By the way its walls are plastered with all kinds of advertisements. There are no vestibules in the L. underground- a red circle crossed with a blue stripe can be seen on the buildings or just under a staircase leading straight under the ground.

P- But I hear your underground is the oldest in the world.

P- Your information is right. & the L. underground stations are old & not attractive to the eye. Trains haven’t any fixed schedule. During rush hours big crowds gather.

P- Oh, look, what are they?

P- Traffic wardens, a familiar sight in L. were introduced in 1960 to control parking.

P- But as far as I know parking in L. is very expensive.

P- True. By the way British rail say: “Driving makes your tense. Tension makes you ill. Think of your heart & don’t go by car. Go by train- & relax. But be careful when you cross the street in L. because the traffic lights here are not like in Europe. The red light says “STOP”, the green light says “WAIT” & the yellow light says “CROSS”.

P- I’d like to add with the growth of traffic, road signs become important. They may be warning signs, traffic lights &  stripes, that show you where you can cross the street. These signs have to be understood at a glance in any country.

P- Can we do without an Information Service in a big city? What would you do if you failed to find the Information Service.

P- Oh, it’s very easy. Because as far as I can judge there are a lot of not only traffic wardens but a lot of policemen in the streets of L. too. By the way we also know a policeman in England is called “Bobby”. And we can inquire them. For example…

P- Excuse me. Could you tell me where the Picture Gallery is, please.

P- It’s just around the corner, on the opposite side of the road. Let me show you.

16. Thank you very much. That’s very kind of you.

P- Are you a stranger in town?

P- Yes, I’ve just arrived this morning.

P- Where are you from?

P- Moscow.

P- That’s a nice city. I’ve been there. Oh, there’s the Picture Gallery there.

P- Thank you for your help.

P- You are quite welcome. I hope you’ll enjoy your visit.

P- Excuse me, how do I get to baker Street from here?

P- Take bus 24 at the bus station.

P- Is the bus station far?

P- No, only a quarter of a mile. Turn right at the traffic lights.

P- Thank you.

P- you are welcome.

3. В АВТОБУСЕ.

P- Ah, here we are… Your hotel is, as I have already said “Wellington”. By the way there are leaflets & brochures on tours in the hotel lobby. Take a map of the city with you or you’ll get lost.

P- But in my opinion moving about in L. is quite easy if you have an atlas of streets. Yes, atlas & not just a map. L. is too big to be shown on one map. If you want to find an address, look up the street index at the back of the atlas. Remember, however, that very often there are several streets or roads with the same name- one of them may be in the West End, another in North L., yet another in the south & so on.

P- Attention, please, in an hour we’ll waiting for you downstairs. Don’t be late. The bus leaves at 9 sharp. See you near the hotel.

4. В ГОСТИНИЦЕ.

P.- Good morning!

P.- Morning!

P.- My name is… I believe you have a room for me.

P.- Could you spell your name, please…

P.- H-e-l-e-n… Here is my passport.

P.- Just a minute…Yes, that’s right. We can offer you one- single room for today.

P.- Is there a shower?

P.- There is a private bathroom, a TV- set & a fridge. Fill in this form, please… Sign here, please… Here is your key.

P.- By the way, what time is dinner?

P.- Anytime between 6 & 7 downstairs in the restaurant. There are coffee stalls & snack bars on the floors of the hotel.

P.- Oh, that’s fine! What time is it?

P.- It’s a quarter to eight.

P.- Oh, my watch is three hours slow then.

P.- No wonder. It must be noted that L. is 3 hours slow then.

P.- Really! Thank you very much. Excuse me, but I have another question. What facilities are there in the hotel?

P.- There is a hairdresser’s, a foreign currency bank, a post office, a drycleaner’s & a laundry. All of them are on the ground floor.

P. Thank you!

5. У ГОСТИНИЦЫ.

P.- A, look at that! It’s raining!

P.- You never know where you are with the weather.

P.- Is everybody here? Where are the rest of the tourists? Oh, here they are.

P.- Oh, I can’t wait to see it all.

P.- I’m sure our town will impress you favourably. But we have no time to waste. & our first route is Trafalgar Square. But  now let me introduce you your new guides. They are … They are going to tell you about our history.

6. ИСТОРИЯ ЛОНДОНА.

P.- To begin with I should say L. is a very old city. It began life 2000 years ago as a Roman fortification at a place where it was possible to cross the River Thames. The R. Th. flows from the heart of England to the east coast. So the Romans built a bridge soon after their invasion of Britain in AD 43. They gave their settlement a Celtic name. Lyn- din (river place), later called Londinium.

P. – Excuse my interrupting you, but as far as I know Londinium was not only the capital of Roman Britain, but also the sixth- largest city in the Roman Empire.

P.- Right you are. But L. began with the Romans. The Romans laid out military roads & the Thames itself provided a water way for merchants, trading with the continent or the inland districts. By AD 60 there was a sizable town there. But in that year British people revolted against the Romans. They attacked L. & burnt it down. But such were the natural advantages of the place, that when the Romans returned the settlement was re- established. L-m flourished & within a generation had become the administrative centre for the province. L. grew in political & military importance & in trade & wealth. By the end of the 11 century a significant new development had taken place. King Canute had built a palace to the west of the city. Edward the Confessor chose to live there too & as he was a very religious man, beside the palace he built a church, his minster in the west.

P.- Oh, I see it gave the name Westminster to the small area that grew up around the royal buildings. But as far as I remember after the Norman conquest in 1066 William I built the Tower of L. just outside the city – to show them the King’s authority.

P. That’s the gospel truth. From that time on L. had 2 centers: Westminster where royal & later political power was established & the City, the centre of commercial wealth. Buildings in the City & in Westminster rivalled in size & beauty. St. Paul’s Cathedral grew to be the largest in Britain. Westminster Abbey has always remained magnificent. Aristocratic landowners developed new estates in Bloomsbury & Covent Garden – their names can be found in the names of many streets.

P.- Pardon me for asking, but what about the Great Fire? I don’t remember when it was exactly but each of us could remember a poem:

                                 L’s burning, L’s burning

                                 Fetch the engines, fetch the engines

                                 Fire, fire, fire, fire!

                                 Pour on water, pour on water!

P.- I’d like to draw your attention to the fact that it is a song, not a poem. The Great Fire, which was in 1666, destroyed 132000 houses in the city, causing quick development outside. The Fire began on Saturday, the 2 of September & burnt until Thursday. To put it simply the fire burnt for 4 days. After the G. F. people built a new city

P.- By the end of the 19 century L. had become the financial centre of the world & the other suburbs began to expand to accommodate the city workers. But what about the World Wars?

P.- During the I W. War L. had its first taste of bombardment from German airships. 25 years later the first bomb of the II W. War fell in Fore street in 1940. Before the war ended 164 of the City’s acres had been destroyed & Westminster was little better. Rebuilding began with high rise offices & blocks of flats & the City skyline became a panorama of concrete 7 glass monoliths. In 1965 the capital was divided into 32 boroughs- each of them larger & wealthier than most of Britain‘s other cities.

P.- As you see L. may be old, but it does not stagnate. & sure each generation introduces changes without spoiling the charm & character of the capital’s 2000 years of history.

P.- Sorry, here’s Trafalgar square.

P.- Thank you very much for your information!

7. ТРАФАЛЬГАРСКАЯ ПЛОЩАДЬ.

P.- I should say this is one of the nerve- centers of L. It was built at the beginning of the 19 century to commemorate the Battle of Trafalgar, the historical naval victory won on the 21-st of October,1805 by the British fleet under the command of Nelson over the combined French Spanish fleet. The battle lasted several hours. Nelson was fatally wounded by a shot which broke his backbone. He died on board his flagship the Victory, but not before being told that he had won the battle.

Nelson’s Column with the Statue of Admiral Lord Nelson on top, rises in the centre of T. S. The Statue of Nelson itself placed facing towards the sea, he loved, measures 17 feet in height. To the north- east of Trafalgar S. there is the building that houses the National Gallery of Art- one of the most important Art Galleries in the world- & behind is the National Portrait Gallery. What a pity we have no time to drop into. Quite often the Square becomes the location for meetings. T. Square is the heart from which the beat is emitted to all the Londoners.

There are many pigeons in the S. & Londoners like to feed them. Everybody knows that the dove is the symbol of peace all over the world.

Follow me & I’ll show you Whitehall. The street stretches from Parliament Square to Tr. Square. Just as Westminster or the Palace of W. frequently stands for the H. of Parliament, so Whitehall is often used as a name for the Civil Service.

P.- Right you are. & next door at No 11 lives the Chancellor of the Exchequer who is responsible for financial planning & the British economy. Just around the corner in Whitehall itself are all the important ministries: The Foreign Office, The Ministry of Defence, The Home Office & The Treasury.

In the middle of Whitehall is the Cenotaph, where the Queen lays the first wreath of poppies on Remembrance Day. On that day each year the people of Britain remember their dead from the 2 World Wars of the 20 -th century by wearing a red paper poppy.

Now as far as I know your next stop is the Houses of Parliament.

11.ДОМ ПАРЛАМЕНТА.

P.- My name is… I’d like to begin with Westminster. W. is another central & important part of L. Most governmental buildings are situated here. On the left bank of the Thames is W. Palace, famous as the H. of P. It’s the seat of the British Parliament. The Clock Tower with the hour-bell called Big Ben is known the world over.

P.- Excuse my interrupting you but I know why this bell is called “Big Ben”. When the great bell was cast in L. foundry in 1858, the question of its name was discussed in P. One member said: “Why not call it B.B.? There was much laughter among the members because the man in charge of public buildings was sir Benjamin Hall, a very tall, stout man whose nickname was B.B..

P.- The Palace of W. together with Victoria T. &  the Clock T. form an unmistakable architectural complex. But the Towers & the H. of P. are not only associated architecturally but also in the democratic spirit that rules the political life developed in the H. of Commons, for if P. is sitting- the flag flies on top of Victoria Tower during the whole day. If the debates go on during the night- which quite often happens in the dynamic parliamentary life of Gr. Br., especially if matters highly important for the nation are being discussed- a light burns above B.B. in the Clock Tower.

P.- Oh, I understand this light at night & the flag during the day-time signal for the people of L. that the members of P. each from his own political point of view, are watching over the nation’s interests.

P.- Sure. We are going to the H. of P. We’ll start at the Royal Gallery & then go to the H. of lords. You see, the historical frescos that decorate the walls of the Central Corridor are very interesting. Passing from here we’ll arrive at the actual Commons itself. At the end of the H. of C. is the Speaker’s Chair on the right side of which the members of the parliamentary majority sit. So our excursion is over.  Your next stop is the Tower of L.

8. ТАУЭР .

P.- I think you know the City is the oldest  part of the capital. Among the first historic buildings is the Tower of L. built in 1087. The history of L. is closely connected with the T. They say that L. is the key to England & the T. is the key to L. The T. of L. was founded by William the Conqueror. It was begun with the aim of protecting Londoners from invasion by the river. Since then the T. has served as fortress, palace, state prison & royal treasury, now it is a museum. During the reign of Henry VII part of it became a menagerie & it was one of the citizen‘s entertainments to watch a bear being led to the water’s edge to catch salmon. T. Bridge is close by the T. of L. & also is St. Paul’s Cathedral, the greatest of English churches.

12. КАФЕДРАЛЬНЫЙ СОБОР СВЯТОГО ПАВЛА.

P.- I’m going to tell you about St. P. C. Everybody coming to L. for the first time wants to see S. P, C. This is the third cathedral with this name which L. has had. The 2 others were burnt down, the first in 1086 & the second in 1666. Christopher Wren, an architect built it for 35 years. The inside of the Cathedral is very beautiful. After looking around you can climb 263 steps to the Whispering Gallery above the library, which runs round the dome. It is called this because if someone whispers close to the wall on one side, a person with an ear close to the wall on the other side can hear what is said. Then, if you climb another 118 steps you will be able to stand outside, the dome & look over L.

27. ROBBIE WILLIAMS.

P.- British groups often set new trends in music. Now stars & styles continue to appear, for example Robbie Williams…

P.- It’ll come in your sweet time, Lord

Getting underneath your skin.

I can feel you in the silence

Saying let forever be

Love, only love, will set you free.

I wish I met R. W. I wish we sang my favourite song “Something Stupid” together.

29. ОКОНЧАНИЕ ПУТЕШЕСТВИЯ.

Careful attitude to riches of every country is very important. I wish you visited London to make sure how beautiful it is. I wish you dreamed.

P.- СТИХОТВОРЕНИЕ «Dream».

Р.- ПЕСНЯ «Dreams».

T.- Thank you for your songs & your mood….
