Ход урока
ОРГМОМЕНТ (2 min)
Teacher: Good morning, boys and girls! Nice to meet you. During the last week we were talking about famous scientists and discoverers and their achievements. Today we are continuing to work with this topic. A lot of these people are dead, that`s why mostly we will use…Which tenses? Right! Past Tenses and Passive Voice. So, who can help me to name our lesson?

1. In 1928 the president of American Art Union Joseph Shenk wrote that there was no place for sounds in real movies, because it was entertaining but not useful. 2. In 1920 an editor of a newspaper The New York Times laughed in his articles at a statement of Robert Goddard that the flight to the Moon would be possible on a rocket. Now the name of the editor is forgotten, but one of craters on the Moon is called in honour of a rocket constructor Goddard. 3. Nowadays in American and in European streets some unusual buses can be seen. They are not driven by a man. The speed of such means of transport is about 20 km/h and they are quiet safe. 4. The headphones which looked like a drop were mentioned by Ray Bradbury in his book “Farenheit 451” in 1953; the atomic bomb was first described in Herbert Wells` book in 1914, and the real atomic bomb was launched in 1953 and made terrifying destructions in Japan!).

Life is about creating yourself” (George Bernard Show, an English writer). 15. “Do something fast but badly – and everybody will forget that you`ve done it quickly but will remember that it was bad.
