ВВЕДЕНИЕ

Рабочая тетрадь «Общенациональные праздники и знаменательные даты в Великобритании и США» адресована студентам 2, 3 курса специальности «Физическая культура», «Дошкольное образование», «Преподавание в начальных классах» изучающим дисциплину «Иностранный язык». Она дает возможность «погрузиться» в интереснейшую историю праздников Соединенных Штатов Америки и Великобритании.

Целью данного учебного пособия является:

1. Развитие речевой компетенции (говорение, письмо, чтение, аудирование).

2. Развитие языковой компетенции - овладение новыми языковыми средствами (фонетическими, орфографическими, лексическими, грамматическими) в соответствии с темами, предложенными в рабочей тетради.

3. Развитие социокультурной компетенции - приобщение студентов к культуре, традициям и реалиям стран английского языка, формирование умений выделять общее и специфическое в культуре родной страны и страны изучаемого языка.

При составлении учебного пособия использовались материалы следующих авторов: Джейн Майлз, Била Боулера и др.

Новизна данного пособия заключается в творческом подходе к разработке структуры пособия. К каждой изучаемой теме прилагаются игровые задания, которые способствуют лучшему восприятию и усвоению нового материала, помогают закрепить и проконтролировать знания, повысить мотивацию к изучению темы.

Данное пособие состоит из одной части, составленной по тематическому принципу. Включает в себя 6 разделов, посвященных темам, изучаемым в течение курса.

Все пособие посвящено общенациональным праздникам и знаменательным датам в Великобритании и США.

Каждая тема содержит краткую лингвострановедческую, страноведческую и социокультурную информацию, а также упражнения для закрепления. Для проверки понимания упражнения могут проводиться как письменно так и устно.

Необходимость в создании учебного пособия вызвана, прежде всего, недостаточной обеспеченностью учебно-методическими материалами дисциплины «Иностранный язык», необходимостью создания рабочей тетради, которая обеспечила бы студентов достаточным языковым материалом с одной стороны, а с другой - помогла развить и воспитать способности и готовности к самостоятельному изучению английского языка и дальнейшему самообразованию с его помощью.

Пособие может быть использовано как дополнительный материал для аудиторной работы, а также для самостоятельной работы студентов.

Unit 1. Halloween.

Task 1. Read the text 'Halloween'.

On October 31, Americans celebrate Halloween. Halloween means 'holy' (hallow) 'evening' (een). This is the evening before the Christian holy day of All Saints Day. On All Saints Day, Christians remember the saints. But Halloween is even older than Christianity. Before Christianity, people in Europe believed that on October 31 ghosts of dead people came back. To scare the ghosts, people dressed like devils and were very noisy. They also made big fires to keep the ghosts away. Later, people did not believe in ghosts, but they kept the day of Halloween for fun.

Immigrants came from Europe to America and brought with them the custom of Halloween. Halloween has some strange symbols. One symbol is the jack -o' - lantern in the window. The jack -o' - lantern is to scare the ghosts. People cut the pumpkin, throw away all of the inside, and cut a face in it. Then they put a candle inside of it.

Today, in the US, Halloween is very popular with children. They wear masks and special costumes. They want to look like skeletons and ghosts. Then they go from house to house and say, 'Trick or treat!' people give them candies, cookies, fruit. When people give nothing, the children sometimes play tricks on them.

Task 9. Read the text about Saint David.

1. Saint David, or Dewi Sant, as he is known in the Welsh language, is the patron saint of Wales. He was a Celtic monk, abbot and bishop, who lived in the sixth century. During his life, he was the archbishop of Wales, and he was one of many early saints who helped to spread Christianity.

2. Dewi died in the sixth century. He was a very gentle person who lived a poor life. It is claimed that he ate mostly bread and herbs. Despite this poor diet, he was tall and physically strong. Dewi would have probably been a vegetarian, and It is claimed that Dewi lived for over 100 years, and it is generally accepted that he died in 589.

3. Dewi was born in Wales. We know a little about his early life - he was educated in a monastery called Hen Fynyw, he stayed there for many years.

4. Dewi travelled far on his missionary journeys through Wales, where he established several churches. He also travelled to the south and west of England and Cornwall as well as Brittany. It is also possible that he visited Ireland.

5. He founded a monastery where the cathedral city of St. David stands today. The monks were very strict. They worked very hard besides praying. They had to get up very early in the morning for prayers and afterwards work very hard to help maintain life at the monastery. The monks had to keep themselves fed as well as the many pilgrims and travellers who needed lodgings. They also had to feed and clothe the poor and needy in their neighbourhood.

6. There are many stories regarding Dewi's life. It is said that he once rose a boy from death, and milestones during his life were marked by the appearance of springs of water.

7. St. David was, and is, a very important figure to the Welsh. Naturally, then, St. David's Day is a time of great celebration in Wales. Societies all over Wales celebrate with special meetings and events. In St. David's Hall, Cardiff, each March 1st, there will be a concert featuring a 1000-member male voice choir, specially formed for the occasion.

8. St David's Day, as celebrated today, dates back to 1120. His last words to his followers were 'Be joyful, and keep your faith'. Well, we hope that you now have some idea of who St. David was, and why he is so important to us all.

Task 10. David's Wordsearch. Find these words in the wordsearch.

Unit 6. Easter.

Task1 . Read the text and find out how people celebrate Easter in the UK.

Easter is an important religious festivity in the UK and traditions are not very different from those in other European countries.

Easter eggs and bunnies, symbolizing the coming of spring and new life, are given as presents at this time of the year. But there are other traditions involving eggs. One of them is "Egg - rolling". People decorate hard boiled eggs with different colours, then take the eggs to the top of a hill and roll them down. The first egg to reach the bottom wins. In Avenham Park, in Lancashire, the annual egg - rolling attracts more than 40,000 people. Nowadays, it's common, though, to use chocolate eggs in this competition instead of real eggs.

Another Easter tradition is "Egg hunting". Parents tell their children that the Easter bunny has brought some Easter eggs and has hidden them in the garden. The children then look for the eggs and the one with the most eggs is the winner.

In the UK, hot cross buns are very popular at Easter. These delicious loaves of bread are made with fruit and spices and they have a cross on the top, symbolizing the 4 quarters of the moon - the hot bun. They are best eaten hot.

Throughout the UK there are also East parades. Adults and children wear special Easter bonnets, decorated with lots of spring flowers.

On Easter Sunday many British go to the Church, which are usually decorated with lots of flowers. Special Easter songs are sung during the religious service. Afterwards, families get together for a special Easter lunch, usually roast lamb with mint sauce and vegetables, followed by the traditional Simnel cake. On Easter Monday people usually stay home and watch some sport on TV, or they go out for the day.
