П Р Е Д И С Л О В И Е
Повседневное общение на занятиях по английскому языку в неязыковом вузе является неотъемлемой частью учебной деятельности студентов, обеспечивающей эффективное овладение изучаемым иностранным языком. Такое общение дает обучаемым необходимую речевую практику в активизации фонетического, лексического и грамматического материала, изученного в средней школе и предлагаемого программой вуза. Обучаемые не только учатся иностранному языку, но и практикуются в иноязычном общении, которое в современных условиях и при современном методическом подходе к обучению иностранным языкам рассматривается как главная цель процесса обучения.
Любое общение в принятой на современном этапе педагогике сотрудничества реализуется в трех основных функциях - коммуникации, интеракции и перцепции.
Интеракция – это речевое взаимодействие партнеров; коммуникация обеспечивает процесс обмена информацией; перцепция означает взаимное восприятие и оценку друг друга партнерами по общению.
Если не будет учтена хотя бы одна из этих функций, общение не состоится.
При составлении данного пособия мы исходили из необходимости реализации этих функциональных аспектов общения. Именно это и определило структуру пособия.
СТРУКТУРА ПОСОБИЯ
Первая часть пособия (UNIT 1) обеспечит реализацию функций интеракции и перцепции. В нее включены речевые модели и высказывания, позволяющие партнерам по общению корректно поприветствовать друг друга, вступить в общение и выйти из него, высказать собственное мнение и узнать мнение собеседника, обменяться информацией и высказать свое отношение, выразить эмоции и пр. Эти модели представлены в первых двух частях Раздела 1. Третья часть этого раздела представляет собой лексические минимумы по изучаемым проблемам повседневной жизни и помогает студентам в организации иноязычного общения по повседневной тематике на занятии по иностранному языку и вне его.
Второй раздел пособия (UNIT 2) включает набор текстов с приложенными к ним лексическими минимумами и вопросами по изучаемым темам повседневного общения. Помимо этого студентам предлагаются упражнения проблемного и коммуникативного характера, выполнение которых обеспечит эффективное запоминание лексического материала и позволит активизировать грамматику и «вывести» изучаемый лексико-грамматический материал в речь.
В третьем разделе (UNIT 3) студентам предлагаются тесты для самоконтроля. Выполнение этих тестов поможет им проверить свои знания по изученному материалу.
КАК РАБОТАТЬ С ПОСОБИЕМ
Пособие предназначено для самостоятельной работы студентов на занятиях и во внеаудиторное время.
При работе со словарным материалом, представленном в первом и втором разделах пособия, необходимо пользоваться англо-русским словарем, русско-английскими разговорниками, а также пособием Е.А. Маслыко «Учебное общение на уроке английского языка», Минск: ВШ, 1990. Указанное учебное пособие поможет студентам не только определить значения предлагаемых слов и речевых моделей, но и, при желании, расширить объем своих знаний.
Включенные во второй раздел тексты взяты из учебного пособия «Английский язык для поступающих в вузы» (составители: И.В. Цветкова, И.А. Клепальченко и Н.А. Мыльцева). Данные тексты представляют собой образец современной английской речи, могут служить моделью для составления собственных монологических высказываний, а также лежать в основе диалогического и полилогического обсуждения, чему, несомненно, помогут вопросы и задания проблемного характера, сопровождающие каждый текст.
Выполнение коммуникативных упражнений и заданий к текстам позволит студентам активизировать лексический материал, заставит повторить грамматику, позволить сформировать навыки и умения языкового прогнозирования.
Автор выражает глубокую благодарность рецензентам пособия профессору КГУ д.ф.н. Лебедевой Светлане Вениаминовне, доценту КГМУ к.ф.н. Шамаре Ирине Федоровне за внимание и положительную оценку работы.

UNIT 2
EVERYDAY STUDENTS’ LIFE: TEXTS AND COMMUNICATIVE TASKS
MY FAMILY
I am Alex Sidorov. Alex is my first name and Sidorov is my surname. I am seventeen years old. I want to tell you a few words about my family. My family is large. I have got a mother, a father, a sister,-a brother and a grandmother. There are six of us in the family
First of all some words about my parents. My mother is a teacher of biology. She works in a college. She likes her profession. She is a good-looking woman with brown hair. She is forty-four but she looks much younger. She is tall and slim.
My father is a computer programmer. He is very experienced. He is a broad-shouldered, tall man with fair hair and grey eyes. He is forty-six. My father often sings and when we are at home and have some free time, I play the guitar and we sing together. My father knows all about new radio sets and likes to repair old ones. He is also handy with many things. When he was small, he liked to take everything to pieces. My grandmother told me a story that once my father tried to "repair" their kitchen clock. He managed to put all the wheels and screws back again — but the clock did not work. They had to give it to a repairman. But that happened a long time ago. Now he can fix almost everything: a vacuum cleaner, a washing machine, a fridge and what not. He's got a few shelves where he keeps everything he needs. On the table there is always a radio in pieces.
My parents have been married for twenty-six years. They have much in common but they have different views on music, books, films, sports. For example, my father likes horror films and my mother likes "soap operas". My father is fond of tennis. My mother doesn't go in for sports. But my parents have the same opinion about my education and upbringing.
My parents are hard-working people. My mother keeps house and takes care of me and my father. She is very good at cooking and she is clever with her hands. She is very practical. My father and I try to help her with the housework. I wash the dishes, go shopping and tidy our flat.
My grandmother is a pensioner. She lives with us and helps to run the house. She is fond of knitting.
My sister Helen is twenty-five. She is married and has a family of her own. She works as an accountant for a joint venture company. Her husband is a scientist. They have got twins: a daughter and a son. They go to a nursery school.
My brother Boris is eleven. He is a schoolboy. He wants to become a doctor hut he is not sure yet. Three months ago he dreamed of being a cosmonaut.
I want to become a student. I'd like to learn foreign languages. I think I take after my father. I'm tall, fair-haired and even-tempered. I always try to be in a good mood.
We have got a lot of relatives. We are deeply attached to each other and we get on very well.

MY FLAT
WE live in a new 16-storeyed block of flats in Strogino. It's situated in a very picturesque place not far from the Moskva River. There's a big supermarket on the ground floor and it's very convenient to do everyday shopping.
Our fiat is on the fifth floor. It's very comfortable and well-planned. We have all modern conveniences, such as central heating, electricity, gas, cold and hot running water and a telephone. There are three rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and a hall in our flat. There's also a balcony and we can enjoy a lovely view of the river.
The largest room in our flat is the living room and we use it as a dining room and as a sitting room. In the middle of the room there is a big table and six chairs round it. Opposite the window there is a wall unit with lots of books, a TV-set and a video cassette recorder. There are two comfortable armchairs and a small coffee table in the right-hand corner. There is also a sofa and an electric fire in our living room. We like the living room best of all, because in the evenings we gather there to have tea, watch TV, talk and rest.
My room is the smallest room in our flat, but it is very cosy and light. There is a bed, a wardrobe, a desk, an armchair and several bookshelves in my room. There is a thick carpet on the floor. The walls in my room are light-brown and there are some big posters on them. I like my room very much, but from time to time I change it round. I quite often move the bed and change the posters on the wall.
Our kitchen is large and light. It is very well-equipped. We have got a refrigerator, a freezer, a microwave oven, a coffeemaker and a toaster. We haven't got a dishwasher yet, because it is very expensive. But I'm sure we shall buy it in the near future.
