In everyday speech the word "Britain" is used to mean theUnited
Kingdom and the British are those people who live on the British Isles. Our
topic is "Familiar and unfamiliar Britain" We'd like to give you some
interesting facts in geography, culture of Great Britain. And of course we are
interested in character and lifestyle of British people. You know that full
name of Great Britain is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern
Ireland. There are four countries in it. And now we are going to speak about
them. Butat first some words about its flag.
Pupil 1:
The UK's national flag is Union Jack. It was set up in 1801 after the last of
the three Acts of Union. Union Jack presents the combination of colours and
crosses of national flags of England, Scotland and Ireland of that time. The
name, the colours and crosses symbolize the union of the united parts of the
country, Union Jack has three crosses. The red upright cross on the white field
is St George Cross the patron saint of England. The diagonal white cross on
the bluefield is St Andrew's Cross - the patron saint of Scotland. The red
diagonal cross on the white field is St Patrick's Cross - the patron saint of
Ireland.
Pupil 2: Scotland.
It is a country of great variety with its own unique character and strong
traditions. It is a very beautiful country famous for the diversity of its
landscapes. Scottish lakes, called "lochs" are surrounded by
picturesque hills and mountains.
The most famous of
the Scottish lochs is Loch Ness, because of the mystery of its monster. It is
not the largest lake in Britain, but it is 35 km long. The weather of the lake
is dark and always very cold. It is a strange creature with two humps in its
back, the head of a snake, a giraffe-like neck and two very short front legs.
People called the water monster Nessie. The Loch Ness monster is a real
attraction for people from all parts of Britain and from many other countries.
Pupil 3: Wales.
It is a small country but there is no other part of the British Isles where
national spirit is stronger, national pride more intense or national traditions
more cherished than in Wales.
The 800-year-old
National Eisteddfod, an annual festival of Welsh music and poetry has been held
early in August since the 12th century. It attracts Welsh people from all over
the world. Welsh is the official language of the festival. The program includes
male choirs, brass-band concerts, many children's events drama, arts, crafts.
The most
impressive ceremony of the festival is the crowning of the Bard. When the best
poet's name is called, he comes forward to the platform. There he is given a
purple robe to wear. A crown of golden oak leaves is placed on his head.
Pupil 4: Northern
Ireland. There is an old Irish saying that Ireland mustbe the
cleanest place in the world, because God washes it every day. Ireland is also
called the ”Emerald Isle” because of its beautiful green fields.Everybody knows
that the national emblem of Ireland is a shamrock. It illustrates the Christian
doctrine of the Trinity to the Irish. Inside the shamrock there is a red hand.
Why is it here? The legendtells us that 3000 years ago two Vikings chiefs went
with their men in big boats to Ireland. The first man to touch the Irish land
would be the king. Then one of the chiefs cut off his right hand and threw it.
So he was the first and he became the king of Ireland.
Pupil 5: England.
England means different things to different people. To some of them it is
"a fortress built by nature" to some - "a foggy Albion".
Some people call
it "the workshop of the world", others - "a landof sleepy rural
beauty".One of the oldest prehistoric monuments is Stonehenge. The
monument consists of two circles of huge stone blocks.
Inside of them
there are two groups of stones in the shape of a horseshoe. It is a ritual
monument of Druids used for performing mystic rites at dawn on Midsummer Day -
24th June.
Ведущий:Thanks
for your attention. You've heard some geographical andcultural facts about
Great Britain. But our information is not complete because we said nothing
about the British. Who are they? Are they different from other Europeans? In
what way? Who can answer these questions? Our special reporter will try to find
answersto them. Now he is at the airport. The reporter is meeting some
touristswho were traveling in Great Britain. They've visited Scotland, Wales,
England, and Northern Ireland. May be they can clear thissituation.
AT THE AIRPORT(A
reporter, 3 tourists)
Reporter. Good
morning. Excuse me. I'm a reporter. Myname is Jane Smith. We are making a
programme "Familiar and unfamiliar Britain". Could you answer some
questions for it, please?
Tourist 1. Yes,
of course.
Tourist2. OK.
Tourist 3. I'm
sorry, I am in a hurry.
Reporter. Oh, it
will take you for 5-6 minutes. Will you introduce yourselves?
Tourist 1. My name
is Polly.
Tourist 2. I am Mr.
Brown.
Tourist 3. Mr. Whimper.
Reporter. Where
have you been?
Tourist 1. Oh,
we've been to Great Britain.
Tourist 2. Yes,
we've visited England, Scotland, Wales, andNorthern Ireland.
Reporter. Can you
tell me, please, what are your impressionsof these countries?
Tourist 1. Oh,
it's a great country. It's rather interesting. There are many beautiful
landscapes, old castles especially in Scotland. Oh, I've made so many photos. I
liked everything.
Tourist 2. I'm of
the same opinion. I totally agree that Great Britain is a great country. As for
meI was greatly impressed by the sights: Buckingham Palace, TrafalgarSquare,
Hyde Park.
Reporter. And
what's your opinion, Mr. Whimper?
Tourist 3. I don't
agree at all. I didn't like this country. These uncomfortable double-decker
buses, queuing is everywhere, even at the bus stops. And the weather? It's
terrific! It rains cats and dogs every day! I had to buy a large umbrellaand
take it everywhere!
Reporter. I see.
Thank you. And the last question. What canyou say about British character and
the lifestyle? Irish, English, Welsh, and Scottish - are they different or
alike?
Tourist 1. I think
they are rather different. English are politeand well-mannered. Besides they
have good sense of humour. Andthey are rather charming.
Tourist 2. I think
you are right. I'd like to add that Englishpeople like countryside. Besides
they are very prudent and careful. The Irish are very friendly. As for the
Scots they are very serious, I think, rather inventive. The Welsh are very
emotional people. Butall British have the common trait - they are very polite!
Tourist 3. I don't
agree at all! For centuries the British have been known as snobbish, aloof,
hypocritical and unsociable. Besides you can hear "Thank you!",
"Please!", "You're welcome!", "Not at all!"
everywhere. Everything irritated me.
Reporter. Thank
you very much! Good bye!
Tourists: Not at
all. Bye!
Ведущий:Now
you see what the main traits of the British people are. The Irish are friendly
and polite. The English are prudent, careful, well-mannered, and polite. The
Welsh are emotional and polite. The Scots are serious, inventive, and polite.
All people are different. As you noticed they have one commontrait -
politeness.
So, we can say
that it distinguishes British people from other Europeans. And now we'd like to
show you one comic scene about two very polite Englishmen. You'rewelcome.
