Ход фрагмента урока I. Подготовка учащихся к речевой деятельности. П. Введение нового языкового материала.

Презентация новых языковых единиц (толкование на английском языке): understatement, endearmg, make a mountain out of a molehill. Understatement - a statement that is not strong enough to express how good,

bad, impressive etc something really is. Endearing - making someone love or like you: an endearing smile. Make a mountain out of a molehill to treat a problem as if it was very serious when in fact it is not.

ОЗУ: Read the texts and answer the questions.

UNDERSTATEMENT

Understatement is a form of speech in which a lesser expression is used than what would be expected. The English gift for understatement is considered to be one of our more endearing traits. When solid sheets of rain are bouncing off the pavements, we say "Looks a bit wet out there". When we are presented with a sickeningly huge bill in a restaurant, we murmur, "Good Lord, that's a little on the steep side". It's all in the interests of keeping a level head, maintaining a sense of perspective, and not making mountains out of molehills.

THE UNDERSTATEMENT RULE

"THE UNDERSTATEMENT RULE means that a debilitating and painful chronic illness must be described as "a bit of a nuisance"; truly horrific experience is "well, not exactly what I would have chosen"; a sight of breathtaking beauty is "quite pretty"; an outstanding performance or achievement is "not bad"..,

<.. > We have a tendency to say " Well I expect we '11 manage somehow", when we mean "Yes, certainly, no trouble", and "That would be quite helpful ", when we mean "For Christ's sake, that should have been done yesterday!"; and "We seem to have a bit of a problem", when there has been a complete and utter disaster. (Another typically English response to say, a catastrophic meeting where a million-pound deal has fallen through, would be "That all went rather well, don'tvou think?")

1. What rule do the English follow in communication?

2. What is the gist of such a phenomenon?

3. What does the author mean saying that "The understatement rale means that a debilitating and painful chronic illness..."?

4. What are the markers of understatement?

5. What typical characteristics of English discourse can you single out from the texts '-'UNDERSTATEMENT", "THE UNDERSTATEMENT RULE"?

6. What characteristics are typical of Russian discourse?
