TASK (with answers)

Однажды Джон путешествовал на верблюде (a camel) по пустыне. Когда


верблюд (the camel) выбился из сил, турист (the tourist) пошел пешком и
заблудился. Солнце (the sun) палило беспощадно, и очень скоро ему страшно
захотелось пить. Через пару часов он увидел палатку(a tent). Турист (the tourist)
обратился к женщине (the woman), которая сидела в палатке.
- Можно мне стакан воды (a glass of water), пожалуйста.
- К сожалению, вода (water) – большая проблема (a big problem) в нашей
пустыне, - ответила женщина (the woman), – но у меня есть галстуки (ties).
Никогда бы не подумал, что в пустыне можно встретить женщин (women),
которые продают галстуки (ties)! – подумал Джон. Он был оптимистичным
человеком (an optimistic man) и не боялся трудностей. Джон отправился дальше
и через несколько километров снова увидел на своем пути палатку (a tent). На
этот раз в палатке (the tent) сидел мужчина (a man).
- Воды (water), – простонал турист (the tourist).
- К сожалению, воды нет, – ответил мужчина (the man), – но, возможно, Вы
хотите купить галстук (a tie)?
Как истинный англичанин, турист (the tourist) сумел промолчать и поплелся
дальше. И вновь увидел палатку (a tent), в которой не было воды, но
продавались галстуки (ties). В отчаянии он упал на землю и пополз. Почему так
популярны галстуки (ties) в этой пустыне, – удрученно думал турист (the
tourist).
Наконец, через час он увидел большой отель (a big hotel). У дверей стоял
швейцар (a doorman). Из последних сил турист (the tourist) подполз к нему и
сказал:
- Впустите меня, я дам Вам за стакан воды (a glass of water) 100 долларов.
- Извините, – ответил швейцар (the doorman), – но к нам без галстука (a tie)
нельзя, это требование директора отеля (the director of the hotel).
Комментарии
Однажды Джон путешествовал на верблюде (a camel) по пустыне.
Перед словом camel вы поставите неопределенный артикль а, поскольку Вы
даете мне (Вашему собеседнику) подсказку, что достаточно просто
представить себе любого верблюда. Нет необходимости выделять данный
объект из ряда похожих объектов.

Когда верблюд (the camel) выбился из сил, турист (the tourist) пошел пешком.
the camel, the tourist – чтобы дать мне понять, что Вы говоритe все о том же
верблюде и о том же человеке.

Солнце (the sun) палило беспощадно, и очень скоро ему страшно захотелось
пить.
Слово sun с артиклем the, ведь солнце у нас одно, следовательно, и Вы, и Ваш
собеседник точно подумают об одном и том же объекте.

Через пару часов он увидел палатку(a tent).


A tent – достаточно просто представить себе любую палатку. Нет
необходимости выделять данный объект из ряда похожих объектов.

Турист (the tourist) обратился к женщине (the woman), которая сидела в палатке.
the tourist – чтобы дать понять, что Вы говорите все о том же человекe.
the woman – чтобы из всех женщин собеседник выделил именно ту, которая
сидела в палатке.

Можно мне стакан воды (a glass of water), пожалуйста.


a glass of water – поскольку в диалоге с продавщицей турист говорит, что ей
достаточно представить себе любой стакан и любую воду.

К сожалению, вода (water) – большая проблема (a big problem) в нашей пустыне,


– ответила женщина (the woman), – но у меня есть галстуки (ties).
water – чтобы дать понять собеседнику, что он может представить себе
любую воду.
a big problem – чтобы собеседник понял, что это одна из проблем.
the woman – чтобы дать понять собеседнику, что Вы говорите все о той же
женщине.
ties – у женщины были какие-то галстуки.

Никогда бы не подумал, что в пустыне можно встретить женщин (women),


которые продают галстуки (ties)! – подумал Джон.
women, ties – Вы сообщаете собеседнику, что имеются в виду любые женщины и
любые галстуки

Он был оптимистичным человеком (an optimistic man) и не боялся трудностей.


a brave man – артикль a показывает собеседнику, что Джон является одним из
множества храбрых туристов.

Джон отправился дальше и через пару часов снова увидел на своем пути палатку
(a tent).
a tent – чтобы собеседник представил себе любую палатку. Нет необходимости
выделять данный объект из ряда похожих объектов.

На этот раз в палатке (the tent) сидел мужчина (a man).


the tent – чтобы дать понять, что Вы говорите все о той же палатке
a man – какой-то, любой мужчина. Нет необходимости выделять данный
объект из ряда похожих объектов.

Воды (water), - простонал турист (the tourist).


water – чтобы дать понять собеседнику, что имеется в виду любая вода.
the tourist – чтобы дать понять, что вы говорите все о том же человекe.

- К сожалению, воды нет, – ответил мужчина (the man), – но, возможно, Вы


хотите купить галстук (a tie)?
the man – чтобы дать понять, что Вы говорите все о том же продавце в
палатке
a tie – дается подсказку, что достаточно просто представить себе любой
галстук. Нет необходимости выделять данный объект из ряда похожих
объектов.

Как истинный англичанин, турист (the tourist) сумел промолчать и поплелся


дальше.
the tourist – чтобы дать понять, что Вы говорите все о том же туристе

И вновь он увидел палатку (a tent), в которой не было воды, но продавались


галстуки (ties).
a tent – вы даете подсказку, что достаточно просто представить себе любую
палатку. Нет необходимости выделять данный объект из ряда похожих
объектов.
ties – чтобы дать понять собеседнику, что имеется в виду любые галстуки.
Почему так популярны галстуки (ties) в этой пустыне.
ties – чтобы дать понять собеседнику, что имеется в виду любые галстуки.
… удрученно подумал турист (the tourist).
the tourist – чтобы дать понять, что Вы говорите все о том же туристе.

Наконец, через час он увидел на горизонте большой отель


a big hotel – Вашему собеседнику достаточно представить себе любой большой
отель, не выделяя данный объект из ряда похожих объектов.

У дверей стоял швейцар (a doorman).


a doorman – Вы сообщаете, что достаточно представить себе любого
швейцара. Нет необходимости выделять данный объект из ряда похожих
объектов.

Турист (the tourist) подполз к нему и сказал:


the tourist – чтобы дать понять, что Вы говорите все о том же туристе

Впустите меня, я дам Вам за стакан воды (a glass of water) 100 долларов.
A glass of water – поскольку в диалоге со швейцаром турист говорит, что
швейцару достаточно представить себе любой стакан и любую воду.

- Извините, – ответил швейцар (the doorman), – но к нам без галстука (a tie)


нельзя, это требование директора отеля (the director of the hotel).
the doorman – чтобы дать понять, что Вы говорите все о том же швейцаре
the hotel - чтобы собеседник представил себе именно тот отель, о котором шла
речь ранее
the director – в данном отеле только один директор, следовательно и Вы и Ваш
собеседник точно подумаете об одном и том же человеке.

Description: The teacher begins a chain with a sentence (e.g. The cup is on the table.)
and gives the end of the chain (e.g. The sun is in the sky.). In turn, the students add
their sentences using the construction the ! + be to indicate the location of the object
which in the previous sentence was the location of another object. Thus the students
create a chain from smaller objects to larger ones. The teacher chooses 1 of the chains
he likes more.
Explanation: (The teacher writes on the board the structure the ! + be). Make a
chain of sentences. This is the beginning of a chain The cup is on the table. This is the
ending The city is in the country. In turn you add one sentence to build a chain until
you come to the last sentence. The student who finishes the chain loses. For example,
The cup is in the room. The room is in the house. The house is in the street. The
street is in the city. The city is in the country.
