Материал лекции на тему: «Punctuation Marks – расставляем знаки препинания»
Данная методическая разработка будет полезна как учителям английского языка, так и учащимся средних и старших классов.
Знаки препинания в английском языке употребляются реже, чем в русском языке. Напомним, что знаки препинания - особые элементы письменности, служащие для обозначения на письме формально-грамматического, смыслового и интонационного членения речи.
В английском языке используются те же знаки препинания, что и в русском: например, точка, вопросительный знак, восклицательный знак, – ставятся в конце. Кавычки ставятся для выделения прямой речи и цитат.
В обоих языках расстановка знаков препинания в тексте регулируется определенными правилами, но в английском языке эти правила менее жесткие. Хорошая пунктуация – это умение сделать правильный выбор в нужном месте, чтобы читатель мог наилучшим образом понять интонацию автора.

- Заглавные буквы
Заглавные буквы обозначают начало предложения. Также они используются в написании имен собственных: личных имен и названий, национальностей, дней недели, месяцев, времен года, народных праздников, географических названий. Заглавные буквы используются в написании названий книг, журналов и газет. Обратите внимание, если имя собственное состоит из двух и более слов, то все составляющие название слова пишутся с большой буквы: The British Museum
- Full stop- точка

Примечание 2:
если предложение заканчивается аббревиатурой, обозначенной точкой, то эта же точка служит и для завершения всего предложения.
6. в десятичных дробях целое число отделяется от дроби точкой (в отличие от русского языка).
Точка читается point [point]. Ноль – nought [no:t].
Если целое число равно нулю, то оно часто не читается.

There are different trends in painting: classicism, romanticism, impressionism, cubism, etc.

Примечание: Если список перечисленных пунктов расположен в столбик, каждая новая строка должна начинаться с заглавной буквы, после каждого пункта знак препинания не ставится.
6. Semi-colons – Точка с запятой
1. Точка с запятой иногда используется вместо запятой, чтобы отделить предметы, включенные в список.
The shopping centre has a number of features: a cinema; two meeting rooms; a fast-food café; a small gymnasium.
2. Точка с запятой также может использоваться вместо точки , отделяя два главных предложения. В таких случаях предложения грамматически остаются отдельными, но связанны по значению.
Some cats sleep during the night; most cats are active during the dark.
3. Точка с запятой используется в официальной письменной речи, в которой много длинных предложений и синтаксически сложных конструкций.

9.Прямая речь и знаки препинания
При прямой речи знак препинания ставится внутри кавычек (в русском языке точка и запятая ставятся после кавычек).
Можно использовать одинарные кавычки ' ' или двойные '' ''. Двойные кавычки более распространены в рукописных материалах.
He said, “Now it’s time to begin.” “Now it’s time to begin,” he said, “and you will be the first to speak.”
Передача чужих мыслей
Иногда мы сообщаем и о мыслях, используя при этом структуру косвенной речи, кавычки не употребляются:
Why did I marry so quickly, so foolishly, she thought to herself.
What would he say, she wondered, if he could see that now?

A father and his baby
One Sunday some visitors to Hyde Park, who were sitting on benches quietly enjoying their sandwiches, were suddenly surprised by a strange young man.
The young man was pushing a pram. The baby in the pram was crying loudly. The young man stopped and said softly You should take it easy Tom. You should control yourself Tom.
The baby calmed down for a minute but then it started to cry again. The young man stopped, took out a little toy out of the bag, gave the toy to the child and said You should take it easy Tom. You should control yourself Tom.
They went on, but soon the child started to cry again. The young man stopped, took some chocolate out of his bag and gave it to the baby. Don’t worry Tom. It’s Ok Tom. You’ll be all right Tom he said. But the baby didn’t calm down. It just cried louder and louder.
An old woman who had been watching the man came up to him and smiled. You’re a great father she said you know how to talk to your baby, in a nice, quiet voice. Then she looked into the pram and asked What’s wrong with you Tom? Why are you crying?

11. Put in semi-colons and commas where they are necessary.
A
Most people enjoy travelling but I don’t share their passion. The best holiday for me would be a quiet day when I can watch some films. I hate trains and crowds in the railway stations I’m afraid of travelling by air and I feel seasick when going anywhere by boat. What’s the point in travelling I ask? Why suffer if you can see faraway places on TV?
B
I’ve always dreamt about travelling. However travelling is not as thrilling an adventure nowdays as it used to be. Travellers of the past risked their lives every minute. Nowdays people travel with too much comfort. They can always find food and medical care. Of course safety and comfort are not bad things, but to me, the old way of travelling is far more attractive!
C
I like travelling. Once my parents and I were travelling by ship and we were caught in a storm. The waves were huge and the captain insisted that all the passengers should stay in their compartments. The storm lasted for several hours. No one was hurt but now I can understand what travelers of the past felt when they were crossing the oceans on their little wooden ships.

Nowadays many people think that they are too fat even if their doctors disagree. They think the best way to improve their fitness is following a diet. But is dieting really so effective and healthy?
On the one hand if you want to lose weight it is very important to keep your eye on what you eat. To begin with you should cut out snacks and desserts which add weight without boosting energy levels. Besides you ought to cut down on fat as it is believed to be one of the major causes of obesity. Finally you may count the number of calories you eat every day which may substantially reduce the amount of food you eat and help to lose weight.
On the other hand strict dieting may be dangerous. Firstly the lower the calories eaten per day the harder it is to get the daily requirements of proteins and vitamins. In addition excessive dieting causes muscle loss and this loss may be from your heart with severe consequences. Moreover dieting lowers your metabolic rate so when you return to your normal food intake you will put on weight even faster than before.
To conclude I believe that to stay healthy everybody should follow a sensible well-balanced diet that gives their body exactly what it needs. However I think the best way of keeping fit is doing sports. If you do regular exercise you can eat and drink whatever you want because you are burning it all off.
20. Put in punctuation marks.
