of the _Chinese_____Empire during the rule of                                      China            

_successive  dynasties. Several walls, referred to as the                          success

Great Wall of China were built since the 5th century B.C.

It is the world’s longest human-made structure,                                      long

stretching over approximately_ 6400 km.                                              approximate                                                                                       approximate

5. Choose the right items in the rows after the text.(1min)

The Lighthouse of Alexandria

On the island of Pharos 1guarding   2entrance to the harbor of Alexandria, Ptolemy II of Egypt ordered the  3construction of one of the  4 first lighthouses in history. Sostratus  of Cnidus designed and  5 built the 400-foot high tower, which 6  was completed about 270 B.C. Of white marble, in set  back stories of  7 various shapes,  the lighthouse kept a  fire 8 burning nightly. That fire could  9  be seen many miles out on the Mediterranean. This lighthouse, one of the 10 greatest buildings of the ancient world, stood for almost 1,600 years. It 11 was destroyed by an earthquake in 1303.

Statue of Zeus

The only idea we had today of the great statue of Zeus which the Greeks 1built at Olympia to the king of their gods, 2. is gathered from coins which 3 bear  copies of the structure. This giant statue, 4towering 60 feet above the ground, 5. was constructed in one of many temples which graced the town of Olympia in Greece. The creator of this magnificent work  6. was Phidias, the greatest of all Greek sculptors. He 7. pictured Zeus as a mighty, bearded king, with a wreath of olive leaves over his brow. The upper part of the body 8was carved from pure ivory and the lower portions of the statue  9 were covered with gold.

We 10. do not know when Phidias modeled the statue. We do know, however, that the sculptor lived between the years 500 and 430 B.C. All the traces of the Statue of Zeus have completely disappeared, and only impressions on coins 11. bring home to us the richness of the famous statue of Zeus.

6. Let’s have a rest and sing the song. Seven Wonders of the World.

Song “7 Wonders of the World”

Today at my school in world history 
Teacher popped a quiz, he said, “This is easy 
Just name the 7 wonders of the world for me” - So this is what we wrote: 
The pyramids of Egypt, the TajMahal, the Panama Canal, China’s Great Wall 
World famous landmarks, we counted them all - Yes, they got every vote

Then I noticed the shy girl who sits next to me
Hadn’t turned in her list, it was plain to see 
Teacher asked her what the trouble might be - And this is what she said:
“There’s so many answers, I don’t know what to say” 
Teacher said, “Maybe we can help find a way - Just read us your list” 
The girl hesitated, then this is what she read:

Chorus

“To touch, to see, to taste and to feel
To laugh and to hear, to love while we’re here
These are such wonders, wonderful wonders 
7 wonders of the world”

Well, you could have heard a pin drop in that room 
Nobody spoke, nobody moved 
‘Til someone asked the girl to read it once more through
And so she spoke again:

(Chorus)

It’s a gentle reminder from a gentle soul 
We take for granted gifts worth more than gold
And the richest treasures in life’s plan 
Cannot be built by our own hand

(Chorus)

III. T: I am glad that you are confident in your knowledge and I am absolutely sure that you will cope with the examination tasks successfully.

Have a look at the ancient wonders of the world. They are all destroyed and it is impossible to see them anymore. It is really sad. I would like you to realize that we should do our best to preserve the new chosen wonders of the world, so that our children and grandchildren could admire them.

You hometask for the next lesson is:

Write an argumentative essay on  the statement given below.

Use the following plan:

1. Introduction (stating a problem)

2.   Main part (expressing your personal opinion and giving reasons)

3.   Main part  (expressing an opposing opinion and giving reasons for this opposing  opinion )

4.   Main part  (Explaining why you don’t agree with the opposing  opinion )

5.   Conclusion (Making a conclusion restating  your position)

      Each country possesses some objects which it regards as its own wonder. But can such wonders belong only to one country?  It seems they should be the whole world’s possessions. You have this task in your textbooks.
