I can make soup with it. But I need some water”. “Well, I’ve got a lot of water”, said the old mean woman. She poured some water into a big saucepan. The tramp put it on the fire and put the stone into it. After a while he tasted the soup. “Mmm. That’s good. It just need a bit of salt and pepper”, he said. The old woman fetched some salt and pepper.
The tramp tasted the soup again. “That’s better”, he said. “It really needs a few
vegetables. It’s a pity you haven’t got any vegetables”. “Oh, I can find some”, the woman said. She ran to the garden and brought some potatoes, carrots, beets and a big onion. The
tramp peeled and sliced the vegetables and put them into the saucepan.
“Is it ready?” asked the woman. “Almost”, answered the tramp. “It really needs a bit of meat”. “I can get some meat”, shouted the woman. She went to the kitchen and came back with a piece of ham and some sausages. The tramp chopped everything and put into the saucepan. Then he stirred the soup and said, “That’s OK. I can’t see the magic stone anymore. So the soup is ready. Bread is very good with stone soup. It’s a pity you haven’t got any bread”. “I have got some bread”, said the old woman. She went to the kitchen again and fetched some bread and butter.
Then the woman tasted the soup. “Mmm, this stone soup is delicious”, she said.
When the tramp left, he said, “Here is the magic stone. You can keep it. But remember, for the best stone soup you need a bit of meat, a few vegetables and a little salt and pepper”.

A traditional English breakfast is a very big meal – sausage, bacon, eggs, tomatoes and mushrooms. But nowadays many people just have cereals with milk and sugar, or toast with marmalade, jam or honey. Marmalade is made of oranges and jam is made of other fruit. The traditional breakfast drink is tea, which people have with cold milk. Some people have coffee, often – instant coffee, which is made with just hot water. Many visitors to Britain find coffee disgusting!
For many people lunch is a quick meal. In cities there are a lot of sandwich bars, where office workers can choose the kind of bread they want – brown, white or a roll – and then all sorts of salads and meat or fish to go in the sandwich. Pubs often serve good, cheap food both cold and hot. Schoolchildren can have a hot meal at school but many just take a snack from home – a sandwich, a drink, some fruit, and, perhaps, some crisps.
Tea means two things. It is a drink and a meal! Some people have afternoon tea with sandwich cake.
The evening meal is the main meal of the day for many people. They usually have it quite early between 6 o’clock and 8 o’clock.
On Sundays many families have a traditional lunch. They have roast meat, beef, lamb, chickens, potatoes, vegetables and gravy. Gravy is a sauce made of the meat juice.
The British like food from other countries, too, especially Italian, French and Indian. People often get takeaway meals – you buy the food at the restaurant and then bring it home to eat. Eating in Britain is quite international!

Task 9
1) Pre-reading task.
What do you know about diets? Do you keep any diet? The title of the article is “The History of Dieting”. Paragraphs are in the wrong order. Decide on the correct order for the paragraphs, and write the letter next to the number. The first and the last paragraphs are correct.
2) Reading.
A. The word “diet” originally meant “things that people eat”, but these days, we use the word to mean an eating pattern or programme designed to change something.
B. But it has taken a long time to find out exactly what these are. Sea travel led to some increase in understanding. When it became possible to build ships that could go on long voyages, sailors started to spend many months at sea. They also started getting a strange disease, called “scurvy”. Eventually, it became clear that they needed fruit or vegetables to survive. Today, we know that Vitamin C is the reason.
C. But when did it all start? There’s a story that in 1087, William the Conqueror, King of England, had become so fat that he could no longer ride his horse. He stayed in bed and drank alcohol instead of eating food to try and lose weight.
D. Although the discovery helped their lives, there was much more that wasn’t known. Nobody knew, for example, why some people got fat and others didn’t, or what to do about it.
E. Now, it may or may not have worked for him, but we can’t really recommend it as an approach for most people. The most kinds of food we eat are important, because different foods contain different things our bodies need.
F. However, despite all these, we usually say “diet” about loosing weight. This is certainly the area where the money gets spent. And it has a long history.
G. We could be talking about any one of many different kinds. There are diets for avoiding certain chemicals, like salt, and there are diets to increase amounts of certain things, like potassium. There are even diets to help people put on weight.
30
H. Then in the 1890s, a chemist called Wilbur Atwater began investigating how foods consisted of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. He found that he could measure the heat value of these by burning them and called a unit of this heating a “calorie”.
I. This measurement he created can be seen as the start of modern food science and dieting. Since then, knowledge has come quickly – some people say too quickly!

Task 12

2) Reading.
All About Potatoes
1. A lot of potatoes are eaten in many parts of the world, particularly in Northern Europe and North America. The potato had been cultivated in America before it become important food in Europe, Africa and Asia. It was introduced to England in the time of Queen Elizabeth I in the 16th century. Nowadays it is such an important part of the English man’s diet that it is difficult to imagine how he used to manage without it.
32
2. Potatoes can be cooked in many different ways. The four main methods used in England are boiling, roasting, baking and frying. When potatoes are boiled, they are cut up and put in a saucepan with water and a little salt. When potatoes are baked, they are put in an oven for half an hour. They usually are not peeled. Baked potatoes with their skins on are called “potatoes in their jackets”. Roasting is like baking because it is usually done in an oven. The main difference between baking and roasting is the usage of fat. Fat is used while you are roasting, but it is not while you are baking.
3. Frying is like roasting because fat or oil is used. There are two main ways of frying potatoes. They can be cut into slices and fried in a special shallow pan called frying pan. For this way of frying English people use animal or vegetable fat which is sold in packets or tins. The other way is called deep frying. The slices of potatoes are put into a deep pan or metal box full of oil.
4. In Britain fried potatoes are called “chips”. We must be careful not to get confused about the meaning of the word “chips”. In America fried potatoes are mostly called “French fries” and the word “chips” is used in America and now also in Britain for potato crisps. Potato crisps are very thin slices of potato fried by a special factory method and sold in a plastic bag. It is this second and newer meaning of the word “chips”, which has been borrowed by some other languages.
5. One of the most popular dishes in Britain is fish and chips. Before the fish is fried it is dipped in a mixture of flour and water called batter. Both fish and chips shops where one can go and buy chips and fish for the whole family.

What “eating” places do you like the most and why? What is important for you?
2) Reading.
Andrew, 15. I only ever eat out on special occasions, birthday, for example. I don’t really like going to restaurants. It takes too long. I get bored. I usually go to the restaurant with my family, mainly to traditional restaurants or pub restaurants. I like pubs with gardens best – where you can sit outside. My favourite food is hamburger with chips and ice-cream, plain food, nothing fancy. I hate spicy food.
Matthew, 18. I often eat out with my friends an evening out at the pub. We usually end up in a pizzeria, burger bar or Chinese restaurant because you don’t have to dress smartly to get in and they’re the type of place where you can eat most cheaply. I like going to the nearest Chinese restaurant “The Dragon” best because the food’s good there and the waiters are really friendly. It’s also cheap and convenient – just next to the put! I have to say that my favourite food is Chinese. The food I hate most is salad.
Carry, 16. I often eat out with my friends on Saturdays. We spend the morning shopping, then stop for a burger. I like my local burger place best because they serve you more quickly than other burger places, and it’s so big, you can always find a seat. It’s also cheaper than other burger cafes. The food’s not brilliant, a bit tasteless, but what I like most is being with my friends and catching up on all the gossip1 My favourite food if you can call it food, is milk shake, especially strawberry flavour! I love all sweet things – chocolate, desserts, apple pie. I dislike fish most.
34
Clive, 17. Every Saturday I meet my mates in the Video Rock Café. We don’t have much to eat, a burger, maybe a sandwich, but then we don’t go there for food – it’s the atmosphere really lovely – and you don’t have to dress smartly. I like music too. There are always a lot of people I know there. I suppose my favourite food is Indian, the hotter the better, and my mum’s roast dinner. There isn’t any food I don’t like.

Task 15
1) Pre-reading task.
What do you know about meals in Britain?
2) Reading.
Lunch is taken in the middle of the day, between breakfast and dinner. The English lunch usually consists of two courses: a meat or fish with vegetables and a dessert. For his lunch an Englishman may have chops, beefsteaks, cutlets, fried fish with vegetables, some salad and so on. A cup of coffee, fruit or fruit puddings are usually taken for the dessert.
Some people call this meal dinner, they don’t have any larger meal after lunch. Thus, the English word “lunch” can hardly be translated or explained as “the second breakfast”. There is a special word in everyday use to denote the second breakfast. This word is “elevenses”.
Everything in London stops at midday for lunch. Most offices, institutions and small shops are closed for lunch for an hour from 1 to 2 p.m. The streets, squares, crossings are

Висновок
Викладене дозволяє зробити висновок про необхідність тривалої і трудомісткої роботи з метою засвоєння іншомовної лексики, яка передбачає як безперервне накопичення і розширення словникового запасу, так і оперування ним у різних видах мовленнєвої діяльності (аудіюванні, усному мовленні, читанні та письмі).
Головна мета роботи з учнями – створення оптимальних умов для вияву обдарованості й талантів дітей, формування гуманної особистості та створення умов для вільного формування власної світоглядної позиції. Вчитель на уроці повинен створити умови для оволодіння англійською мовою, використання всіх її багатств і засобів у мовній практиці.
Проблема активізації лексичних одиниць дуже актуальна, тому існує безліч різноманітних лексичних вправ, пов’язаних з конкретною тематикою, які надихають учнів до поглиблення набутих знань, розвитку мовної та мовленнєвої компетенції.
Важливо пам’ятати, що формування та активізація лексичних навичок відбувається на основі граматичних та фонетичних навичок, у тісному зв’язку з ними. Просто лексична сторона виділяється на передній план, щоб стати об’єктом цілеспрямованого засвоєння.
Вивчення англійської мови стало актуальним для кожної сучасної молодої людини, яка замислюється про своє майбутнє. Успіху в навчанні іноземної мови значною мірою сприяє зацікавленість учнів цим предметом.
Тож у центрі уваги вчителя є особиста діяльність учня. Вчитель залучає учнів до творчої підготовки і проведення уроку через пошукові, особистісно орієнтовані завдання.
