England is the largest and the richest country of Great Britain. The capital of England is London but there are other large industrial cities, such as Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester and other famous and interesting cities such as York, Chester, Oxford and Cambridge. Stonehenge is one of the most famous prehistoric places in the world. This ancient circle of stones stands in Southwest England. It measures 80 metres across and made with massive blocks of stone up to four metres high. Why it was built is a mystery.

Not far from Stonehenge stands Salisbury Cathedral. It is a splendid example of an English Gothic Cathedral; inside there is one of four copies of Magna Charta and the oldest clock in England. Chester is very important town in the north-west of England. In the past it used to be a Roman fort; its name comes from the Latin word castra, meaning "fortified camp". In Chester there is a famous museum which contains over 5000 ancient and modern toys.

Oxford is the home of the oldest university of England. The most famous college is Christ Church. It has a great hall which was built during the reign of Henry VIII and its chapel has become the Cathedral of Oxford. Cambridge is the home of Britain's second oldest university. York was the capital of Northern England. It is one of the best preserved medieval cities of Europe. It was built by Romans, conquered by Anglo-Saxons and ruled by the Vikings. Birmingham is often called the "City of 1,500 trades" because of the great variety of its industries.

Англия - самая большая и самая богатая страна Великобритании. Столица Англии - Лондон; но существуют и другие важные города, например Бирмингем, Ливерпуль и Манчестер и другие известные и интересные города, такие как Йорк, Честер, Оксфорд и Кембридж. Стоунхендж - одно из самых известных доисторических мест в мире. Это древний круг из камней, находящийся на юго-востоке Англии. Его диаметр равняется 30 метрам, и сделан он из массивных каменных блоков до четырех метров высотой. Почему он был построен - загадка.

Недалеко от Стоунхенджа стоит Солсберийский собор. Это прекрасный пример английского готического собора; внутри него хранится одна из четырех копий Великой Хартии и самые старые часы Англии. Честер - очень важный город на северо-западе Англии. В прошлом это был римский форт; название его происходит от латинского слова "castra", что означает "укрепленный лагерь". В Честере находится знаменитый музей, в котором собрано более 5 000 древних и современных игрушек.

Оксфорд - это родина самого старого университета Англии. Самый известный колледж - Крайст Черч. В нем сохранился холл, построенный во время правления Генриха VIII, а его часовня стала Оксфордским собором. Кембридж - родина второго самого старого британского университета. Йорк был столицей Северной Англии. Сейчас это один из наиболее сохранившихся средневековых городов Европы. Он был построен римлянами, завоеван англосаксами и управлялся викингами. Бирмингем часто называют "городом 1500 ремесел" из-за большого количества отраслей промышленности.

Government Office Regions The north might also be considered to include the three former Government Office Regions of North East England, North West England and Yorkshire and the Humber. This area consists of the ceremonial counties of Cheshire, Cumbria, County Durham, East Riding of Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Merseyside, Northumberland, North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Tyne and Wear and West Yorkshire, plus the unitary authority areas of North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire. The regions also hold the North of England Inward Investment Agency.

History During antiquity most of the area was part of Brigantia — homeland of the Brigantes and the largest Brythonic kingdom of Great Britain. After the Roman conquest of Britain the city of York became capital of the area, called Britannia Inferior then Britannia Secunda. In Sub-Roman Britain new Brythonic kingdoms of the Hen Ogledd ("Old North") emerged. The Angle settlers created Bernicia and Deira from which came The Kingdom of Northumbria and a Golden Age in cultural.

Large city The biggest city in the North of England is Liverpool. It is the largest city in the UK with a population of more than 450 thousand people in the city. In 1190 in the place where now stands the modern city, there was a small settlement called Liverpool, which in Russian means "muddy pond". Liverpool was granted city status. And continues to develop actively.

Программа определяет цель изучения английскому языку как развитие способностей учащихся использовать иностранный язык для общения в диалоге культур современного мира. Поэтому в учебнике много материалов страноведческого и лингвострановедческого характера, текстов, связанных с культурой и историей англоязычных стран. Здесь можно увидеть тесную связь и интеграцию с географией, историей. Во втором семестре начинается блок, посвященный более глубокому изучению Великобритании. Материал учебника представлен как путешествие по самой большой части Великобритании – Англии. Учащиеся знакомятся с основными районами Англии. Предлагаемый в учебнике текст дает краткую характеристику каждому району. К концу изучения данного материала учащиеся должны ясно представлять себе характерные черты этих пяти регионов и уметь кратко описать их.

По моему мнению, страноведческий материал учебника лучше воспринимается учащимися, если снабжен тщательно подобранным наглядным материалом, то есть, картинками, фотографиями, картами. В учебнике к тексту дается только схематичная карта Британских островов с обозначенными разным цветом регионами Англии, далее есть еще одна карта с рисунками, изображающими некоторые наиболее известные достопримечательности. Поэтому я подготовила презентацию к тексту Discover Britain: England. Файлы подобраны в логике, соответствующей материалу страноведческого текста.

После того, как учащиеся прочитали текст, организуется работа по обсуждению его содержания по вопросам с визуальной опорой на файлы презентации. Отвечая на вопросы, учащиеся используют информацию из текста. Некоторые вопросы побуждаю их вспомнить уже изученный ранее материал, описать представленную в презентации картинку или фотографию, а также развивают догадку и способность соотносить информацию учебника с подготовленным учителем видеорядом.
