Different People, Different Habits

Project «Different People, Different Habits»

Introduction

Different people have different style of behaviour which depends on personal characteristics and social etiquette [‘etiket] in different countries. First I’ll tell you about social norms of behaviour, and then about personal habits.

1.    Some examples of Social Etiquette in the UK - 5c p.84

Since every country has its own set of dos and don’ts, it’s worthwhile [стоящий] to know what it means to be polite while visiting a foreign country. If you have no idea about social norms of behaviour, you can experience a kind of culture shock while living abroad. I will tell you about some examples of social etiquette in the UK.  … ПРИМЕРЫ …

2. Personal habits. How annoying! – 5a p.80, ex.1
Apart from social etiquette, each person has his or her own habits. Unfortunately, some of them may be annoying. The types of behavior which I dislike most of all are the following: It really annoys me when … . I can’t stand it when … . I also hate it when … .

3. Analysing your/your friends personal habits

• good and bad habits;
• how to improve the behaviour, how to get rid of bad habits.

4. Complaining and apologising – 5d p.85, WB 5d p.46
It’s very important to know how to complain politely about somebody’s misbehaviour. For instance, if your neighbour plays loud music, you can talk to him like that:
ДИАЛОГ p.82 ex.2 (можно взять пример из рабочей тетради, или сочинить свой)

Conclusion
I’m sure, if you know social etiquette and have polite personal habits, your life will be easier. As for me, I always try to behave politely. (можно придумать свое заключение)

Personal Problems - Plan

Personal Problems

Usually teenagers are lively people, but, unfortunately, we can’t say that our life is bright all the time. Sometimes we may have problems or get into difficult situations. I’ll tell you about some of them and try to suggest some solutions.

1.    Examples of people who have problems. Your suggestion what to do. SB: p.72, ex.1, 4

Sandra needs money. I think she could get a part-time job.

Fred’s parents are too strict and they are always arguing. Why doesn’t he talk it through (обсудить подробно) and make compromises.

……

Climate Change - Plan

CLIMATE CHANGE

Introduction

In this project I’ll tell you how climate change influences the life on our planet. I’ll also give you some information about the latest technological achievements to change the weather in one particular place.

1. The Greenhouse Effect

The climate on the Earth is quite warm and comfortable for people to live. It’s because of the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse gasses like carbon dioxide surround our planet like thick blanket. The heat from the sun reaches our planet, then radiates from the land and the sea. Partly this heat goes up into the atmosphere and partly it is trapped by the greenhouse gasses. Scientists say that in the next 100 years, the average temperature will rise by about 3 degrees Celsius. It doesn’t sound like a lot, BUT it means big trouble! Ice is already melting, sea levels are rising and the climate is changing. 

2. Cities under the sea. (SB p.50)

3. Wildlife in great danger.

(your own example)

4. Wild, wild weather. (SB p.51)

5. Changing the weather. (WB p.27)

Unfortunately, people can’t change the climate on the Earth, but sometimes we can change the weather.
