The topic of our lesson is ‘’Travelling to Great Britain”. Look at the blackboard. There is a sentence here. But all the words in it are written together. Try to divide these words and read the sentence.
Every journey gives you its own favour.
T. Well-done. So, this is the motto of our lesson: Every journey gives you its own favour.
As you know there are different ways of spending free time. Many people spend it travelling. What about you? Do you like to travel?
P-1. Yes, I like travelling very much. I’m quite sure that modern life is impossible without travelling because it gives us an opportunity to see new places, to make new friends, to open our mind.
T. Have you ever been abroad?
P-2. No, I haven’t, but I’d like to visit the USA and Australia.
P-3. Neither would I. As for me I’d like to visit England.
T. Would you like to live abroad?
P-4. Perhaps, a short period of time, but not all my life.
T. We have already leant some proverbs and quotations about travelling. Look at the blackboard and match the beginning with the ending.
-He that travels far knows much.
-Travelling is one way of lengthening life.
-If the ass goes travelling, he will not come home a horse.
Travel makes a wise man better, but a fool worse.
II. WARMING UP.
T. What do you imagine when you hear the word”travelling”? Write down the words on the sheets of paper. Let’s make a spidergram about travelling.
TRAVELLING: weather, money, luggage, new places, new impressions, destination, by train, by plane, problems, tickets, free time, on foot, customs, and business.
T. As none of us has ever been to Great Britain I suggest travelling there just now. Of course we’ll visit London, the capital of the country, and some other big cities.
But to my mind, we can’t go anywhere if we know nothing about the place. Thus, our task is to find out if London and other big cities are worth visiting. Big cities have, of course, some advantages and disadvantages (on the blackboard).
| Advantages | Disadvantages |
Big cities are usually very old. They have rich history. Thus, it’s very interesting to keep in touch with it. There are many sights: museums, art galleries, monuments. You are never bored because there are a lot of places for entertainment. Various sport facilities are at your disposal. All modern conveniences are your disposal. | -It’s very noisy because of heavy traffic. Besides, there are a lot of traffic jams. - You are to cover long distances to get to the place of your destination. - There’s a lot of air pollution. - Living in a multi-storey building with a lot of flats is a real disaster. |
T. So, as we see, there are more advantages than disadvantages in big cities. It’s quite sure that London is worth visiting. Let’s meet tomorrow in airport.
