My Visit to the Circus

I like to go to the circus very much. There is a very good circus in Kharkiv. It is situated in the centre of the city not far from  The 4-th Avenue Underground Station. Last time my brother, my mother and I went to the circus during my winter holidays. First we went by underground to the Metro Station "The 4^TH  Avenue" and then we went to the circus on foot. We left our coats in the cloak-room and then went to the hall. At the entrance we bought a programme of the show. Then we went and took our seats. Our seats were not far from the ring and we could see everything very well. The first part of the performance was very interesting — we saw many circus performers: acrobats, rope walkers, jugglers and clowns. The clowns were very funny and everybody applauded them. During the performance the circus band was playing music all the time. The band was conducted by the band leader. Then came the interval. During the interval we went to the bar and bought ice-cream, cotton-candy and a bottle of Coca-Cola. In the second part there were wild animals. Most of all I liked tigers and lions. They were sitting in a large cage and performed various tricks. The animal trainer was very brave and spectators applauded a lot. There were also bears riding bicycles and dogs playing football. After the performance we took our coats and went home. On the way home we discussed the performance and everything that we had seen in the circus. I liked the visit to the circus very much.

V. READING ACTIVITIES 

Read the text which will help you to discuss conceptions of friendship and comradeship.

                                   Friendship is a Very Great Thing

     Do you remember the English proverbs about friendship which you have discussed already? Here they are: “A friend in need is a friend indeed”,  “A good friend is the sun in winter”,  “A friend is easier lost than found”,  “A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody”.

     Friendship is a very great thing and that’s why people of all countries have so many proverbs about it. As you do not know all English proverbs about friends and friendship, here are some more. Take, for example, this one: “A friend is never known till a man has need”.                       

     What does it mean? It means that the best friend is the one who helps you when you are really  in need of help. You know your real friends when you are in a difficult situation.

      The second proverb is “A friend is not so soon gotten as lost”. The meaning of this proverb  is that it takes a long time to become really friendly with somebody. But there are many ways of  quickly losing a friend if you do something wrong. So you must try to keep a friendship.

      Another English proverb is “Before you make a friend, eat a bushel of salt with him’.

     Of course, you need not eat much salt to become good friends but you must know your friend  very well. If you help each other and do useful and important things together, your friendship will  last a very long time.    

       The words “friendship” and “comradeship” are very close to each other in meaning. Friends   and comrades may have the same interests; they understand, help, respect and trust each other.

Questions for discussion:

1. What English proverbs about friendship do you remember?

2. In what way can you learn to know your real friends?

3. How long have you know your real friend? What sort of boy (girl) is he (she)?

4. Have you ever helped someone with his/her school work? Have those pupils become your comrades

    (friends)?

5. What will you do if a boy (girl) comes up to you and says, “I should like you to be a friend with

      me”?

 VI THE END OF THE LESSON

EVALUATION: Your marks for today… You worked well. You may be better...

 SUMMARUSING: What have you done today? What activities have you liked the most, what tasks were difficult / easy for you?

HOME ASSIGNMENT:

a)     Write a story about your best friend.

PROCEDURE

I .WARMING UP

a/ Watch  and discuss the video “Making arrangements”

b/Explain  grammar  material S.B. Ex. 4 p.88

There are many different ways to talk about the future in English. We use different verb tenses depending on what we want to say about the future.

In this lesson, we will learn how to talk about intentions andarrangements in the future.

Intentions

An intention is something that we would like to do in the future. These are general plans for the future.

When we are talking about an intention, we have not taken specific, concrete steps to achieve the action. We are just talking about something that we hope to do in the future.

When we want to talk about our intentions in the future, we must use thefuture with going to.

This is the most correct way to talk about general plans for the future.

Example:

Correct: Someday, I'm going to learn how to dance!

Incorrect: Someday, I will learn how to dance!

We don't generally use the simple future with will to talk about intentions. The best way to talk about intentions is with the future with going to.

Review the rules on how to form the future with going to here before reviewing the examples below.

More examples:

• Bill is so tired! He is going to take a nice, long vacation this year.
  (Bill doesn't have any specific plan for a vacation. He just knows he needs one!)

• I'm going to learn to swim and dive so I won't feel scared anymore!
  (He doesn't know when or how he will learn, but he would like to.)

• Ron says he is going to start eating healthy someday.
  (He has no specific diet plan or a date to change the way he eats.)

• I know smoking is bad for me. I'm going to quit sometime this year.
  (He doesn't know when he will quit, but he wants to.)

• He is going to be just like his father when he grows up.
  (He would like to be just like his father when he is a grown man.)

Arrangements

An arrangement is a specific plan that we have for the future. We have taken real steps to be sure we achieve this plan.

For example, we have called to reserve a table at a restaurant or we have bought a plane ticket.

When we are talking about arrangements, we use the present progressive. 

Correct: I'm seeing my doctor tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. I made the appointment last week.

Incorrect: I will see my doctor tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. I made the appointment last week.

Because we have made an appointment with the doctor, this is an arrangement. We must use the present progressive to talk about arrangements, not the simple future with will.

Review the rules and formation of the present progressive here before reading the examples below.

More examples:

• Christina is meeting Melanie for coffee this afternoon. They reserved a table at their favorite café.
  
  (They made specific plans and reserved the table ahead of time.)

• Denny is starting a new job on Monday. He just had his final interview. He's excited!
  
  (Denny has made all the arrangements at the office and signed a contract.)

• Brad is having a garage sale this weekend. He's put out signs and organized everything he wants to sell.
  
  (He has advertised for the garage sale. It is set for this weekend.)

• Maggie and Ginger are going to the vet this afternoon at 6 o'clock. It's time for Ginger's annual check-up!
  
  (They already have an appointment with the vet.)

• Fred and Joe are traveling to Las Vegas in July. They have their tickets and are very happy about their trip!
  
  (They have already bought tickets and made reservations for a specific date.)

The difference between an intention and an arrangement is the amount of planning we have done. 

If we only have a general idea of something we would like to do in the future, it is an intention. In this case, we must use the future with going to.

If we have specific plans, reservations, or an appointment, we are talking about an arrangement. In this case, we must use the present progressive.
