Today we are going to speak about books and reading. The theme of our lesson is “Books in our life”. (На экране появляется слайд-шоу, презентация. Слайд № 1). Reading is not very popular nowadays, I should say. And I'm sorry about it.

We can't imagine our life without books and reading. Beginning from our childhood we are surrounded by a lot of books. But who was this man who invented printing? Do you know his name?

I should say that he was a genius. His name will be famous in ages. It was Johann Gutenberg who printed the so-called Gutenberg Bible in 1456. (Слайд № 2).

The first printed English book was "Sayings of the Philosophers". It was printed in 1477.

The Russian pioneer of printing was Ivan Fyodorov. He issued the first Russian printed book "Apostle" in 1564.

It seems to me reading is and will be part and parcel of our life. We can't imagine our life without books. First we see them in our childhood when our parents read us books with pictures, nursery rhymes and fairy tales.

Later at school we start reading with the first ABC book. And the books are with us almost every day. We copy them, study, borrow and lend, translate and use.

What do you think about reading?

Is it so important nowadays as it was in the 16th century?

Or do the teenagers prefer watching TV?

Please, tell us about your attitude towards reading.

6) Рассказ о Байроне. (презентация слайда № 3, портрет Д.Байрона)

George Gordon Byron.

The greatest English revolutionary poet G.G. Byron was born in London on the 22nd of January, 1788, into an old aristocratic family. His mother was very rich. His father was a poor army officer. The boy was lame from birth, yet, thanks to his strong will and regular training, he became an excellent rider, swimmer and boxer. He spent first ten years of his life in Scotland. He loved natural scenery and later it was reflected in his poems. He inherited the title of lord in 1798. His literary career began at Cambridge University. In 1809 he left England on a long journey which took 2 years. Byron visited Portugal, Spain, Greece and Turkey. His first two cantos of the poem "Childe Harold's Pilgrimage" were published in 1812. Byron wrote many poems. Among them are "Don Juan", "Cain", "The Prisoner of Chillon", "The Age of Bronze" and others.

12. Did he graduate from the University in 1808 or in 1807?
13. What countries did he visit?
14. What book did he write after his journey?

г) Рассказ учителя о Байроне и А.С. Пушкине. (слайд №4)

I believe you know that Pushkin valued Byron and wrote his biography. But it was a draft copy. First Pushkin read Byron's works in the French translation. Then he studied English better and could understand the harmony and strength of Byron's verse.

They were contemporaries but never met. It seems to me they were 2 persons whose works will stand forever.

When Byron died, his friends wanted to bury him in Westminster Abbey where many of England's great writers are buried, but the English government was against it. And Byron was buried in his native place. Byron's death was mourned by progressive people all over Europe. Pushkin devoted a part of his poem "To the Sea" to Byron as a poet of freedom.
