Family Conflicts

Family conflict is one of the most important problems nowadays. Kids and teenagers don`t want to act their ages and want to look and act like adults. They smoke, drink alcohol, and enter drug sub-cultures. They surf the internet and play computer games all day and night long. Many teenagers enter sub-cultures like goths and graffitimakers, wear strange clothes and haircuts, and come home late. Their parents don`t like these things and have arguments with their children. Sometimes teens run away from their homes because they think that nobody understands them. Sometimes teenagers have interests and values different from those of their parents. That sets a conflict between two generations, which leads to a gap in mutual understanding. Traditional disagreements are: the time to come home at night, doing work about the house and the friends to spend time with.

2. Family Responsibilities:

A mother: Shopping, Washing up, Sweeping the floor, Setting the table, Making money, Cleaning,  Making dinner

 A father : Watching TV, Lying on the sofa, Taking out rubbish

A child: Doing homework ,Making bed Walking the animals, Relaxing

Children ignore their parents; Parents don`t approve of their children`s friends; Parents want their children to obey them

Sometimes parents do not care about their children. It is exactly at that age when young people need a piece of advice or help. Different TV programmes and magazines for the young come to their rescue. In case of need you can also dial a special telephone number, the so-called 'telephone of trust'. But it's not the way out. Parents should help their children and find the way to talk  to them so as to make everything clear. Being able to view the problems more rationally, they should try to do their best to resolve them. We need to learn to talk our problems over in our family. If we are able to do it, everything will be all right.

Conflict in politics

The second group of conflicts is political. Political conflicts can be a real threat (угроза)for people and for states, because they lead to wars. What does the word «war» mean? War always means economical and cultural death of the countries: damage of industry and agriculture, distraction of natural resources and cultural values. But the most serious consequences of wars are human victims. The World War 2 is one of most dramatic conflicts of the twentieth century. Just imagine over 26million people were died during war in Russia. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights appeared soon after World War 2. People in many countries suffered greatly in that war. They hoped that the declaration would help to prevent future wars. But since that time, there has not been a time on our planet without war.

1. We should remember that we are different and everybody has the right to disagree with other people’s point of view.
2. To use sense of humor, do not let your emotions to get out of your hands.
3. We must respect each other’s opinion.
4. Not to be afraid to say “Sorry” and ask for somebody’s advice.
5. Do not use words that may hurt other people.

Every day you are in contact with people whose values are different from yours. And you have the right to disagree with their values. But you should understand that other people also have the right to be different from you. You must respect the right of other people to have ideas that differ from your ideas. People who respect each other’s ideas can resolve conflicts in a peaceful way. If people resolve conflicts peacefully, they will have better relations in the future.

Ways to resolve conflicts

• Present itself on a place of this person.
• Be just and tolerant people.
• Find a solution acceptable to the both parties to the conflict.
• To realize the right to exist another point of view.
• Learn to hear and listen to others.
• Remember that any conflict can be resolved peacefully.

We consider that is better to avoid the conflicts!

Conflicts at school

- I would like to speak about school conflicts today. I consider, that this problem is very important and can be interesting to any person of my age. Each of us has lots of conflicts at school. They can happen between students, between students and teachers and even among teachers, students and their parents. I have chosen the variant of the conflict where it can take place between teenagers at school.

Firstly conflict situations based on insults, envy and gossips (оскорбление). Unfortunately this happens very often among teenagers. Boys prefer insult each other and the result of it are fights during the breaks. Girls like to gossip very much, they discuss appearance, study, teachers, classmates and many many other things. The result of such behavior can lead to strong conflict situation.

Secondly conflict situations based on lack of understanding (непонимание сверстников ). Some students are less talkative, they have only one or two friends, their thoughts are not the same of the majority of the people. So the rest students try to ignore and to insult them sometimes.

The third cause is the fight for leadership. Every student wants to be a leader. All like to command and to be a center of any group. But not all pupils can hold the lider's duties. That mostly depends on the character of the person. If any has lots of attention, he starts to behave like a pop start or the president. The rest don't like it - and here you are - a conflict situation.

The fourth cause is a white crow (белая ворона). That annoys, when you are not like the others. When you have different style, points of view, interests. You become a stranger among the class. nobody communicate with you. That is really bad and a lot of conflicts happen on this ground.

My favorite fifth cause - love and relationship between boy and a girl. Fights, quarrels, love triangles, broken hearts, undivided love. I saw hundreds of love conflicts at school. The main reason, that love conflicts among teenagers can lead to sad consequences (последствия).

• Why do these conflicts happen?

• because of personal psychological features of the pupil;
• because of breaking the standards of the behavior;
• because of age features;
• because of life experience.

I think all of you will agree with me.

Советы по изучению английского.

 Топ-10 ошибок, которые русские делают в английском

 Teach/Learn Поскольку оба слова часто переводятся на русский как «учить» («учить английский» и «учить английскому»), то многие на первых порах их путают. Эта ошибка, конечно, присуща совсем начинающим, но, тем не менее, напомню: teach – отдавать знания, а learn – получать их.

Make/Do А эти два слова путают не только новички в английском. Во-первых, есть некоторое количество устойчивых выражений с этими словами, которые нужно просто запомнить. Во-вторых, если попытаться вкратце сформулировать различие между ними, do используется, когда мы чем-то занимаемся (do the housework, do exercises), а make – когда что-то создаем (make a cup of tea, make a mess).

Must/Have to Мои ученики стремятся во всех случаях использовать must. Ну сказали им в школе, что должен = must, и теперь они используют это слово и чтобы дать совет, и чтобы обозначить необходимость, и для всего остального. Между тем, must означает скорее вашу собственную уверенность в том, что что-то необходимо, а have to – необходимость, вызванную внешними обстоятельствами. Сравните: I have to be home by ten. (My parents told me so.) - Я должен (вынужден) быть дома к десяти. (Мне так велели родители). I must be home by ten. I have a very difficult day tomorrow. (It is my own decision.) - Я должен быть дома к десяти. У меня завтра очень тяжелый день. (Это мое собственное решение).

 Last time/Recently Многие пользуются методом буквального перевода с русского на английский и решают, что последнее время по-английски будет last time. Логично, да? Но вы-то знаете, что last time – значит в прошлый раз, а в последнее время – recently. Place/Room И то, и другое часто означает «место». Но place – это место в смысле «занятое пространство», а room – это свободное место, пространство, которое можно занять.

Except/Besides

Except означает «за исключением». А besides – «помимо». По-русски это можно выразить одним словом – «кроме» – поэтому многие путаются. Но сравните: Candidates need to demonstrate other qualities besides intelligence; they need to be compassionate and restrained, too. (Кандидаты должны продемонстрировать и другие качества, помимо ума; они также должны быть отзывчивыми и сдержанными). Brazil borders on every country in South America except Chile and Ecuador. (Бразилия граничит со всеми странами Южной Америки, кроме Чили и Эквадора).

Decide/Solve Еще один случай, когда одно русское слово – «решать» – может по-разному переводиться в зависимости от контекста. Decide – принимать решения, а solve – решать задачи или проблемы.

 I agree/I am agree Очень многие не хотят считать agree глаголом и ставят перед ним ту или иную форму глагола «to be». Но если вы хотите с чем-нибудь согласиться, то правильно будет сказать просто I agree – Я согласен.

If + will Необходимо запомнить, что эти два слова не употребляются вместе. То есть, та часть предложения, которая содержит условие, не должна содержать will (несмотря на то, что имеется в виду будущее время). Например: If it rains tomorrow (условная часть) I will stay at home (основная часть). (Если завтра будет дождь, я останусь дома).

 Feel/Feel oneself Часто можно услышать фразу вроде «I feel myself bad» в смысле «Я плохо себя чувствую». НИКОГДА так не говорите, если не хотите вызвать как минимум недоумение, а то и смех. Чувствовать себя по-английски будет просто feel. А feel oneself означает совсем другое. Что именно – писать не буду, погуглите, если еще не знаете ;)

Тест на понимание содержания текста:

Mark Twain, who lived from 1835 to 1910, is one of America’s most famous authors. He wrote many books, including The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Mark Twain’s own life was interesting enough to be a book.

Twain was born in the state of Missouri, near the Mississippi River. He came from a poor family. His father died when he was twelve, so he had to leave school. While he was still a boy he worked as a river boat pilot. He steered boats up and down the long Mississippi River. The Civil War, which started in 1861, made travelling on the Mississippi impossible. Twain then went west to Nevada. There he worked on a newspaper. In 1864 he went to California in search of gold. Twain did not have much luck as a gold miner. He left California to travel in Europe. Twain wrote a book about his trips around Europe.

But the most important influence on Twain and his books was the Mississippi River. When Twain finally settled down, he lived in a house with a porch that looked like the deck of a riverboat. Huckleberry Finn, Twain’s greatest book, is about the adventures of a boy on the Mississippi River. Another of Twain’s books is called Life on the Mississippi.

36. In the United States Julia Howe suggested the idea of Mother’s Day in 1872. Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia is credited with bringing about the official observance of Mother’s Day. But when she died in 1948, at the age of 84, Jarvis had become a woman of great ironies. Never a mother herself, her maternal fortune dissipated by her efforts to stop the commercialization of the holiday she had founded. Jarvis told a reporter shortly before her death that she was sorry she had ever started Mother’s Day. She spoke these words in a nursing home where every Mother’s Day her room had been filled with cards from all over the world.

THE EARL OF ST. VINCENT dates back to the 12th century, when it was built as a boarding house for the masons who constructed the church. It was named after a former Admiral who sailed with Lord Nelson. Lovingly restored by the present owners, it is a most extraordinary pub, filled with antiques and hidden away in the old part of the tiny, picturesque village of Engloshayle, in beautiful North Cornwall, England. North Cornwall is one of the last, unspoilt places in the British Isles to offer the visitor coastal scenery as magnificent and beautiful as anywhere in the world, together with the facilities and hospitality to ensure that one returns time and time again. The Earl of St. Vincent is to be found off the A389 Wadebridge to Bodmin Road. Close by there are the picturesque harbours of Padstow and Port Isaac, some superb golfing and a great many historic monuments and ancient sites.
