6) Reading.

T: Read the descriptions of some London's sights and guess what place of interest it is.

1. When I want to know something about the place where I'm going to I prefer to ask people who have been there. The friends of my parents visited London some years ago. They gave us cards and told a lot of interesting things. They said that Westminster Abbey was worth seeing. Westminster Abbey stands opposite the Houses of Parliament. It is one of the most famous and beautiful churches in London. It is more than nine hundred years old. There are so many monuments and statues there. Many English kings and queens are buried there. Westminster Abbey is famous for the Poet's Corner too. Many great writers are buried there: for example Charles Dickens and Rudyard Kipling. The Abbey with its two tall towers is really wonderful.

2. Looking through the newspaper I found the article about the Tower of London. The Tower of London was a fortress, a palace, a prison and the King's Zoo.

Now it is the museum. You can see a lot of interesting things in the halls of the White Tower. Its square walls are white and very tall.

William the Conqueror built it in the eleventh century. There are always black ravens in the Tower of London. People keep them in the Tower of London and look after them very well as they believe that London will be rich while ravens live there.

3. As for me I'd rather watch TV than read books. My favorite programme is "Around The World". Once the programme was devoted to London's places of interest. St. Paul's Cathedral is one of them. One of the greatest English churches, St. Paul's Cathedral, is not far from the Tower of London. The famous English architect Sir Christopher Wren built it in the 17^th century after the Great Fire. It took Sir Christopher Wren 35 years. It is a beautiful building with many columns and towers. In one of its towers there is one of the largest bells in the world.

4. As for me I usually get information from the Internet. Due to the internet the books of all world's libraries are accessible to everyone. The centre of London is Trafalgar Square. Some people say it is the most beautiful place in London. In the middle of the square stands a tall column. It is a monument to Admiral Nelson. Four bronze lions look at the square from the monument. There are two beautiful fountains in the square.

IV. Аудирование.

T: Read the leaflet and say what you can do in London.

T: Say what the visitor asked the travel agent about.

T: How did the visitor ask about the weather?

в) T: Sasha and Cyrill will act out the dialogue. Listen to them and say what Sasha asked the travel agent about.

 – Hello.

weather like in July?

documents do I need? How much money can I take? Things like that.
