Времена английского глагола в поэзии

Москва 2014

Пояснительная записка

Если возникает вопрос: «Почему стихи и только стихи для изучения и совершенствования в английском языке?», вот ответ:

1. Поэзия апеллирует не только к разуму, но и к чувствам и пробуждает воображение и фантазию.

2. Мысль в поэтических текстах выражается в новой, непривычной и образной форме. Новизна формы способствует постижению и запоминанию, звукового и содержательного аспектов не только английского слова, но и пробуждает интерес и к родному слову.

3. С поэтическим текстом в эффективности не может соперничать ни прозаический текст, ни самое рационально составленное упражнение, т.к. присущее стихам возвращение к одним и тем же элементам языка – повтор звуков, слов, частей предложений, целых предложений, ритм и рифма – позволяет использовать поэтический текст не только как запоминающуюся иллюстрацию языкового явления, но и как эффективное упражнение.

Урок – конкурс проводится для изучения времен английского глагола, чтобы посредством заучивания стихотворений помочь студентам оперировать набором фонетических, лексических и грамматических элементов на автоматизированном уровне.

Present Simple

1. A JOKE

They walked in the lane together,

The sky was covered with stars,

They reached the gate in silence,

He lifted down the bars.

She neither smiled nor thanked him

Because she knew not how;

For he was just a farmer`s boy

And she – the farmer`s cow.

1. JENNY WHITE AND JOHNNY BLACK

Jenny White and Johnny Black

Went out for a walk.

Jenny found wild strawberries,

And John a lump of chalk.

Jenny White and Johnny Black

Clambered up a hill.

Jenny heard a willow-wren

And John a workman`s drill.

Jenny White and Johnny Black

Wandered by the dyke.

Jenny smelt the meadow-sweet,

And John a motor-bike.

Jenny White and Johnny Black

Turned into a lane.

Jenny saw the moon by day.

And Johnny saw a train.

Jenny White and Johnny Black

Walked into a storm.

Each felt for the other`s hand

And found it nice and warm.

1. THE REASON WHY

Everybody liked Ezekiel.

Why?

You could scarcely find his equal.

Why?

If he made a mistake,

He said he was wrong;

If he went on an errand,

He wasn`t gone long;

He never would bully,

Although he was strong!

Everybody hated Mello.

Why?

He was such a surly fellow.

Why?

If you asked him for candy,

He`d hide his away;

He never would play

What the rest wished to play;

He would say horrid words

That he oughtn`t say!

Present Perfect

1. NO ENEMIES

You have no enemies, you say?

Alas! My friend, the boast is poor;

He who has mingled in the fray

Of duty, that the brave endure,

Must have made foes! If you have none,

Small is the work that you have done.

You`ve hit no cup from perjured lip,

You`ve never turned the wrong to right,

You`ve been a coward in the fight.

1. ALONE

From childhood`s hour I have not been

As others were; I have not seen

As others saw; I could not bring

My passions from a common spring.

From the same source I have not taken

My sorrow; I could not awaken

My heart to joy at the same tone;

And all I loved, I loved alone.

1. MIDWINTER

The frost has locked the stubbled land in chain

Bound up the tongues of every meadow brook,

Blackened the buds, burst open trees and drains.

And given each curving field a hungry look.

Past Simple

1. A BOOK

He ate and drank the precious words,

His spirit grew robust;

He knew no more that he was poor,

Nor that his frame was dust.

He danced along the dingy days,

And this bequest of wings

Was but a book. What liberty

A loosened spirit brings!

1. TIME AND ETERNITY

A train went through a burial gate,

A bird broke forth and sang,

And trilled, and quivered, and shook his throat

Till all the churchyard rang;

And then adjusted his little notes,

And bowed and sang again.

Doubtless, he thought it meet of him

To say good-bay to men.

1. THE FIGURE IN THE DOORWAY

The miles and miles he lived from anywhere

Were evidently something he could bear.

He stood unshaken, and if grim and gaunt,

It was not necessary from want.

He had the oaks for heating and for light.

He had a hen, he had a pig in sight.

He had a well, he had the rain to catch.

He had a ten-by-twenty garden patch.

Nor did he lack for common entertainment.

That I assure was what our passing train meant

He could look at us in our diner eating,

And if so moved uncurl a hand in greeting.

1. OLD BOTANY BAY

I am he Who paved the way, That you might walk At your ease today I was the conscript Sent to hell To make in the desert The living well;

I bore the heat I blazed the track Furrowed and bloody Upon my back. I split the rock; I felled the tree: The nation was – Because of me!

1. I`LL TRY I CAN`T

The little boy who says «I`ll try»,

Will climb to the hill-top;

The little boy who says «I can`t»,

Will at the bottom stop.

1. I LOVE LITTLE PUSSY

I love little Pussy.

Her coat is so warm,

And if I don`t hurt her,

She`ll do me no harm.

So I`ll not pull her tail,

Or drive her away,

But Pussy and I

Very gently will play.

She will sit by my side,

And I`ll give her her food,

And she`ll like me because

I`m gentle and good.

I`ll pat little Pussy,

And then she will purr,

And thus show her thanks

For my kindness to her;

I`ll not pinch her ears,

Nor tread on her paw,

Lest I should provoke her

To use her sharp claw;

I never will vex her,

Nor make her displeased,

For Pussy can`t bear

To be worried or teased.

1. A GOOP PARTY

«Please come to my party!» said Jenny to Prue;

«I`m going to have Willy, and Nelly, and you;

I`m going to have candy and cake and ice-cream,

We`ll play Hunt-the-Slipper, we`ll laugh and we`ll scream.

We`ll dress up in caps, we`ll have stories and tricks,

And you won`t have to go till a quarter past six!»

1. THE BIRTHDAY CHILD

Everything`s been different

All the day long,

Lovely things have happened,

Nothing has gone wrong.

Nobody has scolded me,

Everyone has smiled.

Isn`t it delicious

To be a birthday child?

Teacher: You have recited the poems very well. Now it`s time to choose the best student. Can you help me? I will name the name of the student and you will clap your hands.

1. Подведение итогов.

Sometimes you say «Hello!» Because the bell has gone, and every day you say, «Good day, good day, good day.» It`s time to say «Good – bye, Good – bye, my friends, bye.»

Преподаватель награждает победителей конкурса чтецов и рассказывает со студентами стихотворение для прощания.

Get your things together,

Good – bye, boys and girls.
