Teacher: I hope everybody is ready to work. Try to guess what we are going to talk about. Have a look at the title and pictures of ex.1 p86. Try to predict what we are going to talk at our lesson today. (учащиеся высказывают свои предположения) rubbish on the streets, lack of park/trees, heavy traffic on the roads, street hawkers, stray animals, overcrowded public transport, smells and noise, graffiti, beggars, dog mess, cars/motorbikes parked on the pavements.
Ex1 p.86 Look at the phrases in the world list. Which of these problems can you see in the pictures? Are there similar problems where you live?
Listening for specific information
T: Listen to three people talking about things they find annoying in the place they live. What is each person’s problems? (Bob, Helen, Peter)
Bob: It makes my blood boil when people throw rubbish on the streets. In my area, it's so messy! Sometimes, it seems as if there's rubbish everywhere - on the pavements, in the gutters, even in people's gardens. I mean, why can't people just put their rubbish in a bin -there are plenty around! It's a disgrace!
Helen: It really gets on my nerves that public transport is so crowded in my city. It's impossible to drive into the city now, because there's nowhere to park, so basically everyone goes to work or school by bus. I guess that's good for the environment, but there should be more buses at peak times or they should build an underground train system or something. It's just so horrible standing up all the way to school and sometimes I can't even get onto the bus in the first place. I just can't put up with it anymore.
Peter: It really annoys me that there are so many stray dogs in the streets in my town. Apart from the fact that I feel very sorry for the poor animals that are left out on the street, it's a public health problem! Just the other week, a child was bitten by a stray dog! I mean, surely it's not difficult for the council to have the animals picked up by an animal protection agency? It's a disgrace!
T: What problem does Bob annoy?
What about Helen?
What about Peter?

Let’s do the fill-word with the words denoting problems in the neighbourhood.
Read the text and the best variant to the gap.
Even if you live in the heart of the city, there's no reason why you shouldn't 1 ……………… up gardening. We can't all afford a large garden, but we can all create a space where we can follow the seasons. Whether it's a window box, a balcony or a tiny yard, anyone can have the pleasure of looking 2 ……………… plants.
A window box is a small box of plants that literally sits outside your window. Here, the choice of plants is what counts. You want a splash of colour all year 3 ……………… , so choose flowers that bloom at different times of the year. Daffodils, for example, are beautiful spring flowers and will soon have you looking forward to summer. Their bright colours will also attract butterflies, bringing a touch of life. If you've got a balcony, you've got a little more freedom. In this case, the key is to 4 ……………… maximum use of the space you've got available. Put taller plants against the walls of the house, with shorter plants and flowers along the 5 ……………… of the balcony.
You can also add a water feature; a small fountain creates interest and can have a cooling effect on a hot summer's day. If your neighbours' balcony is next to yours, why not use a fast-growing plant like wisteria to form a natural barrier, giving you more privacy?
Those of you who are lucky enough to have a small yard can really go to town. Think about how you're going to use it. Do you want to be able to sit and enjoy the sun? Or do you want to be 6 ……………… to entertain friends and have a barbecue? Divide the yard into separate areas and plan each one carefully. Garden furniture is very important. A table that folds in half can give you a lot of flexibility, and chairs that fold away also allow you to change your garden to 7 ……………… your mood. As 8……………… as plants are concerned, choose varieties that don't mind a bit of shade, unless your yard gets a lot of sun. Yards often have walls that keep the sun out for long periods and you don't want your careful plans spoiled because a few of your plants start to die.
1 1) take 2) set 3) put 4) make
2 1) on 2) up 3) after 4) down
3 1) round 2) over 3) along 4) across

Complete the dialogue with appropriate phrase. Put them in the right order.
The first and the last two exchanges in the dialogue are done for you. Drag and drop.
- Well, I’m sorry to say this, but it stinks and I just can’t put up with it any more.
- But bin bags cost money! It doesn’t cost me anything to throw my rubbish straight into the bin.
- Also, the smell attracts flies and other insects, so it could become a health risk.
- Well, it’s about your rubbish bin actually.
- It’s full of rubbish! What do you expect?
- What’s the problem?
- You could put your rubbish in a bag first, so it smells less. That’s what I do.
- I see. Sorry about that.
- Yes. I appreciate that, but the smell is offensive and very annoying. It drives me crazy!
Bob: Can I have a word with you for a minute, please?
Tom: Sure. What is it?
Tom: That’s a fair point. OK. I’ll use bin bags from now on.

The home is full of hidden dangers. Not many people would think that curtains or the TV are especially unsafe. Children, however, can strangle themselves on curtain cords and can be crushed under falling TV sets. So, make sure curtain cords are out of reach of children and attach your TV to the wall.
There are many things that you can do to keep your home safe. For example, never hide a pair of house keys in a ‘secret’ place in your garden. Burglars know where to look! Never give personal information to unidentified telephone callers. And establish a daily routine that ensures that you will never leave your house without first locking all the doors and windows.
Germs are not only found in public places but also around the home. Too often, people do not wash their hands after going to the toilet or before preparing food. To keep your home clean, wipe down surfaces regularly using disinfectant and a clean cloth. There is no need to buy expensive disinfectants: vinegar and hot water is a cheap and effective alternative.
Burglars prefer houses which are easy to break into. They like to work under the cover of darkness and avoid places where forcing entry would be too noisy or time-consuming. So, install outside lights with motion detectors, invest in a burglar alarm, and put security devices such as bars and locks on windows and doors.
Every year, millions of children are injured at home. Fortunately, most incidents are easily preventable. Lock cabinets and drawers where medicines and cleaning products are kept. Put child safety gates at the top of the stairs and cover sharp corners and plug sockets to prevent cuts and electrocutions.
Do you have a high energy bill every month? Well, there are plenty of things you can do to cut down on your energy consumption. Wash your laundry using cold water. Install low-flow showerheads. Identify air leaks in your home and repair them. An easy way to find air leaks is by using a candle. When the flame slants, you have found the air leak.
Trees in our gardens help to shelter our homes from cold winter winds. Therefore, strategically placed trees can really help stop a house from getting cold. Consult a professional gardener on where to plant trees to best shelter your home.

Teacher: Which of the problems can you see on the picture? Are there similar problems in your town? Discuss in groups what we can do to improve the situation. Give your suggestions.
Teacher: Some problems in the neighbourhoods bother the residents and they find them rather annoying. Take the cards and study the ways of expressing annoyance.
Teacher: Listen to three people talking about things they find annoying in the place they live. What each person’s problem? Which of the phrases in the table did they use to express their annoyance?
Bob: It makes my blood boil when people throw rubbish on the streets. In my area, it’s so messy! Sometimes, it seems as if there’s rubbish everywhere ― on the pavements, in the gutters, even in people’s gardens. I mean, why can’t people just put their rubbish in a bin – there are plenty around! It’s a disgrace!
Helen: It really gets on my nerves that public transport is so crowded in my city. It’s impossible to drive into the city now, because there’s nowhere to park, so basically everyone goes to work or school by bus. I guess that’s good for the environment, but there should be more buses at peak times or they should build an underground train system or something. It’s just so horrible standing up all the way to school and sometimes I can’t even get onto the bus in the first place. I just can’t put up with it anymore.
Peter: It really annoys me that there are so many stray dogs in the streets in my town. Apart from the fact that I feel very sorry for the poor animals that are left out on the street, it’s a public health problem! Just the other week, a child was bitten by a stray dog! I mean, surely it’s not difficult for the council to have the animals picked up by an animal protection agency? It’s a disgrace!

Teacher: You are going to work in pairs. You can use the phrases from the cards and the previous dialogue as a model to make and act out your own dialogue by the following situation: Your neighbour’s dog is keeping you awake at night. Teacher may ask some questions to help the students to make the dialogue. What is annoying you? (the dog is keeping me awake at night)What can be your neighbour’s reaction to your complain? (the dog sometimes barks. ) What can you suggest as a solution? (let the dog sleep inside the house)What can be your neighbour’s first reaction to your suggestion? (the dog can make a mess , he would have to spend time for cleaning) How can you persuade your neighbour to do what you want?(my wife and son are having difficulty sleeping and they are tired during the day)
Suggested student’s answer :
A: Can I have a word with you for a minute, please?
B: Sure. What is it?
A: Well, it’s about your dog actually.
B: What’s the problem?
A: Well, I’m sorry to say this, but it is keeping me awake at night and I just can’t put up with it any more.
B: But he’s a dog. Of course he sometimes barks!
A: You could let him sleep inside the house. That’s what I’d do.
B: But he would make a mess and I would have to spend all my time cleaning!
A: Yes. I appreciate that, but the barking is so annoying. It really gets on my nerves.
B: I see. Sorry about that.
A: Also, my young son is having difficulty sleeping and has been very tired during the day.
