Подведение к теме урока (5 минут)
Teacher: “Good morning, everybody. I’m glad to see you. Today we are going to
speak about one celebration which is very popular abroad. ” “What holiday do you
associate with the dish in the picture? ”
Pupil: This dish is associated with Christmas, one of the most favorite celebrations
in Great Britain, the USA and other countries.
Teacher: The British people celebrate Christmas on December 25. Christmas is a
religious holiday and one of the happiest holidays of the year, because it is the day
that Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. They prepare for Christmas
weeks before. They buy gifts for their family and friends. They choose a tree and
decorate it with ornaments and lights. And they prepare special foods and cookies.
Christmas is also the day that Santa Claus visits them and brings them presents in
bright paper and ribbons. He delivers them on Christmas Eve, the night before
Christmas, when they are sleeping. In the morning, they open their present together
and then they go to church. People wish each other a “Merry Christmas!”
Teacher: Now open your books on page 41. You’ll listen to the recording and
choose the best answer.

Текст для аудирования. (15 минут)
What are the traditions most people celebrate in Britain?
I don’t know whether … erm … Christmas is traditional but I don’t know, I think,
Christmas is such a big event I wouldn’t particularly call it a tradition. I would say
traditions are, perhaps, smaller things. For example I think, for most people the
smaller things are often most important so if you get married you wear ‘something
old, something new, something borrowed, something blue’ – that type of
tradition… .
Christmas in my family … we don’t really celebrate Christmas in my family that
much, perhaps, not as much as most people… .
We do gather together but, I think, it is a kind of more political thing within our
family. We all gather together because we feel we ought to, not really because we
are celebrating a tradition … so, I don’t know, maybe the people will have
different opinions on Christmas…
Учащиеся прослушивают текст и отмечают в учебнике упр. 5 (B) стр. 41
правильный вариант.
Andrew’s family gathers together at Christmas because:

a. they are celebrating a tradition;

b. they feel they should;
c. all other people do it.
Teacher: Who knows the correct variant?
Pupil: I know. All the members of Andrew’s family gather together at Christmas
not because they are celebrating a tradition. They feel they ought to and that’s all.
Teacher: Thank you. You are right.
Проверка домашнего задания. (7 минут)
Teacher: Your task for today was to read the text and try to understand it. There is
a table here. Let’s decide which bits belong to Lydia and which to Roy.
Текст, который учащиеся читали дома.

1. The thing is, you can’t knock it, can you? It’s a great time of year. I
definitely still wish it could be Christmas every day and I can honestly say I
still like the song. It’s a good song, really.
2. Of course, I love the way Santa looks: great beard, cool boots and wild hair.
He rocks. And I would like to wear a Santa’s outfit on TV again. I’m
definitely not into getting presents, although I do like to buy them. For me
all I need is my mater, a nice relaxing time and a good laugh.
3. I think Christmas is just an excuse for us to spend money in horrible stores
that have horrible, overpriced objects that no one truly wants or desires. I try
to shop as little as possible. I hate to spend my money supporting
corporations or slave traders.
4. I have everything about Christmas I think it’s the most horrible holiday
based on gluttony and materialism. I didn’t believe in the Bible in the first
place, and Christmas isn’t even the birth of Christ: it’s been totally misdated.
5. I don’t go in for all of the trees and decorations and lights and that rubbish.
It’s not that I’m against the commercialization of it. That doesn’t bother me,
to be honest. No, I just think that it’s a time to be with your mates. So you
don’t need all of that other stuff.
6. I hate Santa Claus. It’s disgusting: a white-haired old man, a fat, jelly-bellied
character coming down a chimney he couldn’t fit down anyway. Elves?
Never believed in them. Reindeer? It’s animal exploitation. If a stranger
with white hair and a red suit came into my house, I’d shoot him first and
ask questions later. And then I’d steal all the gifts and sell them down at the
local flea market.
Teacher: Nastya, will you comment on your choice?
Pupil 3: I’ve put numbers 3, 4, 5 in the first column and numbers 1, 2 into the
second. Lydia doesn’t like Christmas and Roy likes it very much.
Teacher: Let’s answer the questions and discuss the content of the text.
Фронтальный опрос (8 минут):
 What’s Lydia’s attitude to Christmas? Does Roy have the same opinion? What’s
the most pleasant thing in celebration for Roy? Why doesn’t Lydia like to buy
presents? Does Lydia decorate her house? How does Roy feel about Santa Claus?
What’s Lydia opinion about Santa Claus?
Teacher: Thank you. Now, we’ll find what words in the text show their likes and
dislikes.
