Вводная часть. Фонетическая разминка:
-Good morning, children. How are you? Did you watch TV
yesterday, Dasha? What did you watch? Do you like this film, Irina? Why not?
What do you prefer, Sasha, radio or TV?..
-Good. Children, today we continue speaking about
countable and uncountable nouns. Let us remember, the rule: WHAT DO WE CALL
UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS?
(Ns can be count and uncount. Uncountable ns are ns
that we cannot count. They have no plural, they have only 1 form):
е.g.
…
-Is an indefinite article is used with such nouns?
-No. A/ an is not used with uncountable nouns.
-Good. What groups of uncount. ns do you know?
-Uncount. ns unclude:
food
( sugar, milk, water…)
material
(paper, wood, silver, gold…)
abstract
ns (peace, anger, love)
many
others…
-O’k, right you
are. We may find uncountable ns in many spheres. For example in professional
lexicology in mass media. What are these nouns? Can you give me examples? (info,
TV, music, news, radio…)
-O’k. Very good.
Your home-task was to read the text about newspapers and to write down all the
nouns and to divide them into 2 columns:
Why
Do We Read Newspapers?
I started reading a newspaper when I was I think in my early childhood.
Earlier it was more aimed towards getting away from homework( :p
) for 30 minutes or so while I spent some time
pretending reading the sports section and cartoons.
Obviously, no sensible parents would object to their kids reading
newspapers! Later, I went into reading the editorials and other
feature articles. And currently it has reached a stage,
I can spend hours reading just newspapers alone.
And this is when I spend around 40% of the TV time watching news
and I have got a 24×7 internet connectivity. I spend considerable
time checking out Google News. As a result, most of the times I already know
all the news that they can possibly put up in the morning newspapers by the
time it is delivered at my place.
Even with this overflow of information, I just
cannot miss reading the morning newspaper. I just wait for dad to
complete the main pages so that I can get my cup of
tea with it. I do not know why I do that, but that is what
happens everyday at my place. If someday, I don’t get time to do
that… there is always this strange feeling that I missed on an
important daily routine task…

- Good. You can
check your work … ( на слайде текст с выделенными
существительными, разделенными на 2 группы). Have you made any
mistakes? When reading the text, you came across certain ws that are used with
uncountable nouns instead of articles. What are these ws?
-Some, any, much,
little.
-Very good. The
words some/any have different shades of meaning, what are they?
-Some is used in
positive sentences, any – in - /?
-Yes, you are quite
right. But you should also know that some is used in such questions,
when you ask for or suggest smth., for example: Would you like some tea,
please? Let’s practice this rule and fill in the gaps with some/any:
1. – What are doing?
- I’m looking for some
information for my school report.

help?

information about the role of the radio in our life.

working?

- Thank you. I’ve found some
information about the history of the radio.
-Thank you very much.
2. – Hi, how are you?

-I would like to, but I’m busy. Could you help me please?
-Yes, of course.
- Listen to the radio, please. There will be some news about the weather soon
and then tell me everything.

about weather forecasts.
3.
– Good morning. I’m glad to see you. I have some important information for you.
-Yea, please, I’m ready.
- You should write an article about the influence of the Internet on people.
-But where can I find any information?
-I can give you some advice. Start asking people in the street.
- How much time do I have?
- You have some time, so don’t be in a hurry.
- As for me, I can live without the Internet and spend just some time in front
of the computer.
- You can write about this in your article. But also gather some information
from other people.
- O’k.
-O’k. It was good.
Let’s read these dialogues and act them out…( читают по ролям).
-Now it's your
turn to make your own dialogues. Your tasks are: to make up dialogues concerning
the media; to use as many uncount ns with some/any as possible…But before it
let’s remember once again when do we use some/any? (дать
3 ситуации)(роль интернета в жизни людей, роль радио, роль телевидения).
-O'k, thank you.
You can't deny the fact that mass media plays a great role in our life. Some
people adore TV and the internet, others like newspapers, books. Is it good or
bad spend a lot of time in front of the TV?..
-Look at these
pictures. Comment on them, using the ws in brackets, but before it look at
these ws, finds all the nouns and say which of them are countable and
uncountable:

spend up to 10 hours a day on the Internet; to be addicted; to visit different
sites; to be glued to the screen, to get some information)
(to
switch to another channel; a TV-addict; to relax after a hard day’s work; to
watch news, sport programs, talk shows, TV games, documentaries, feature films,
etc.; not to give up TV for anything in the world)
(to
listen to the radio; loud music; the latest news; some useful and interesting
information)
(to
be full of gossip; any background information; articles about natural

newspapers and magazines.

many hours a week.
