Sport competitions were organized every fourth year in Greece in the city of Olympia.

These contests consisted of running, wrestling, jumping and chariot racing. The best athletes from different cities of Greece came to take part in the competitions. Only men could take part in these Games. The competitions lasted for five days.

The winners were awarded with wreaths of olive leaves and became national heroes. The Olympic motto is “Citius, Altius, Fortius” – “Faster, Higher, Stronger”. The Olympic symbol is five interlocking circles colored blue, yellow, black, green, and red, on a white background, representing the five continents. At least one of these colors appears in the national flag of every country.

To emphasize  – придавать особое значение

An oath  – клятва

To accompany  – сопровождать

Revival  – возрождение

Temple  – храм

To persuade  – убеждать

To compete  – состязаться

Theodosius  – Теодор

An olive wreath  – оливковый венок

To serve the cause of peace  – служить делу мира

Pierre de Coubertin – Пьер де Кубертен. В 1894 году барон основал Международный Олимпийский Комитет.

The Olympic Games began in Greece more than two thousand years ago.

In those times a lot of states on the territory of modern Greece often had wars. The ruler of one of these states wanted to live in peace. He decided to organize athletic games to stop the war.

From that time when the games were held all the wars were stopped.

All the athlets took an oath that they had been prepared well for the Games, promised to the God Olympics to compete honestly. Winners were called “olympionics”; they were awarded olive wreaths and cups of olive oil.

The Olympic Games were accompanied by arts festivals. Singers sang hymns, poets recited poems, orators made speeches – all this in honor of the sacred Games.

The Olympic Games had been held for about eleven hundred years, until the Emperor Theodosius banned them for religious reasons in 394 A.D. and the temple of Olympia was destroyed.

The revival of the Olympic began in 1892, when a young French teacher Pierre de Coubertin persuaded people from 15 countries to start the Olympic Games again. He told people about the importance of sports in uniting peoples of the world and serving the cause of peace, as in ancient times.

From that time the Olympic Games cannot take place in a country which is at war, and during the two world wars there were no Olympic Games, but they were interrupted in 1916, 1940 and 1944 by the world wars the first and the second.

The 22nd Olympic Games of 1980 were held in Russia in Moscow. It was a festival of sport and friendship.

The Olympic Games are not only popular; they help world peace and friendship.

/Проверить, доказать фразами и примерами из текста/

T: Children!

Think for a moment.

Are you ready?

Read the text again.

Let us see, who can do it?

P₁(Лида): Yes, I can.

In my opinion it is (b) The Olympic Games help to strengthen peace and friendship

T: That’s all right.

I see you can do it.

T: Now, we’ll see who has the best knowledge of facts. Are these statements true or false? Correct the false statements. I’m going to give a card to everybody. Think for 3 or 5 minutes.

Sveta, help me, please! (раздаёт)

I see you can understand how to do it. Very good. Are you ready?

1. The Olympic Games were held for about 5 thousand years ago.

(False); 2 thousand years

2. The athlets promised to be friendly and to keep the rules of the sport game.

(True); to compete honestly

3. Winners were awarded paper wreaths.

(False); olive wreaths

4. The revival of the Olympic began in 1918.

(False); in 1892

5. The Olympic Games have never been held in our country.

(False); in 1980

6. Pierre de Coubertin decided to start the Olympic Games again, because he wanted to take part in the Olympic Games himself.

(False); to unite peoples of the world

T: All right, I see you can do it. Give me the slips!

Now, let’s continue our lesson.

T: And now, please find the answer to my question.

Have the Olympic Games ever been stopped? Why?

Yes, you may.

P₁(Маша С.): May I answer your question?

Not always. The Olympic Games were not held from 394 till 1892.

There were 2 causes

1. for religious reasons;
2. and during the two world wars.

T: That’ll do! Excellent!

I see, you know it.

You know that our country also took part in those wars. And this year we celebrate the 60^th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. I think we’ll speak about this event a lot and now let’s continue to discuss our topic “The importance of the Olympic Games in the struggle for peace”.

Now I give you some more information from the history of the Olympic Games.

Superiority  – превосходство

Participant  – участник

To capture  – захватить

To combine  – объединять

The last Olympic Games before the World War II were held in 1936.

Berlin was chosen as the City of the Olympic Games in 1932 just a year after the fascists captured the power in the country. The fascists wanted to use the Olympiad of 1936 in their aims. They wanted to demonstrate to the whole world the superiority of Germany. They considered that Germany was the best country in the world.

To protect the ideas of the Olympic Movements a conference was held in Paris in 1936. The participants of that conference decided that fascism and sport (Olympic Games) could not be combined together. Many countries decided not to take part in the Olympic Games.

The next Olympic Games were held in 1948 in Great Britain. And only two countries – Germany and Japan did not have the right to take part in those Olympic Games. The explanation is very simple. Those countries were the centers of fascism and militarism. Those countries began the Second World War.

It proves again the importance of the Olympic Games expressed by Coubertin. “The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not win, but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle”.

T: You should read this text and then answer my question.

What was the world public attitude to the Olympic Games in Germany?

Children, what is the main importance of the Olympic Games?

You can find all the sentences in the texts or /say in your own words/ express your own opinion about it.

T: Yes, you may.

P (Инна): May I answer?

It proves again the importance of the Olympic Games expressed by Coubertin.

“The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not win, but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle”. (1-й вывод)

T: Very good!

P(Маша Б): The Olympic Games are not only popular; they help world peace and friendship. They contribute much to the struggle for peace, understanding and trust among peoples.

T: Now look at the pictures on page 136-137.

Can you comment on one of these pictures?

How does the Olympic flag represent the world?

T: All right. Thank you.

P(Аня): It has 5 colored rings: blue, yellow, red, black, green.

T: Children! What do you know about the medals?

P(Алена): I know that the sportsmen who take the first place at the Games receive gold medals, those who come second receive silver medals and those who finished third receive bronze medals.

T: Every sign means the definite kind of sport.

Can you explain each of these signs?

P (Света): There are: swimming, volleyball, football, figure-skating, horse-racing.

Nowadays almost all people are fond of some sport, because it helps them to keep fit and because they enjoy it.

During the Olympic Games there are competitions in many kinds of sports: for example in swimming, in horse-racing, volleyball, football, figure-skating.

T: The Olympic symbols.

Do you like these toys - bear Misha and cartoon dog Cobi?

What do you think of them?

What do they symbolize?

/The sing song/

P₁(Лида): I think that this bear symbolizes strength, endurance, courage.

P₂(Аня): In my opinion the cartoon dog Cobi – it’s the symbol of quickness, adroitness.

P₃(Коля): I like these toys. I think it’s very funny that a toy is the symbol of the Olympic Games.

P₄(Маша Б): I want that every Olympic Games may have their own symbol – toy.

P₅(Маша С): The cartoon dog cobi is the symbol of the Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992.

P₆(Володя): In 1980 Moscow hosted the 22 Olympic Games. Their symbol was Bear Misha. I think this is the best symbol in the history of Olympic Games.

T: The Olympic flame.

We have not told about the Olympic flame. The Olympic flame is the main symbol of the Olympic Games. You should find the passage about the flame in your text. Who wants to read aloud?

Please!

Very well! Thank you!

P (Ира): The Olympic flame will burn till the end of the Games. The Olympic torch has been carried from Olympia by torch bearers, one for each kilometer, about 340 in all. Before the parade the torch is lighted. The flame for the torch comes from the Site of Olympia. There it’s lighted from the sun’s rays and carried by relays of runners to the city where the Games are being held. The Olympic flame is lit that will burn till the end of the Games.

T: And now let’s imagine the Olympic Games of 2096.

P₁(Инна): I think that all countries will take part in the Olympic Games of 2096.

P₂(Лида): In my point of view the number of athletes who can take part in it will increase.

P₃(Маша С): I hope that the ideals of the Olympic Games in 2096 will stay the same: “… building a peaceful and better world through sport”.

P₄(Маша Б): I think that every country will take its culture to the international community and will acquaint other nations with its cultural heritage.

T: We live in Novokuznetsk.

Our city is a cultural centre of Siberia.

For those who are fond of sport there are a lot of playgrounds, stadiums, swimming pools and the Palace of sport.

We have our own ice-hockey team “Metallurg”.

Imagine that the Olympic Games 2096 are going to be held in Novokuznetsk.

1. What kinds of sport can you offer for the next Olympic Games?
2. How many countries will be represented in the future Olympic Games?
3. Can you imagine the motto for these games?

Do you like our tongue twister?

The first wealth is health.

Health is the best weath.

Let’s repeat it again.

Итак, д/задание:

T: Well, write down your hometask: you should work out the programme of the future Olympic Games in Novokuznetsk.
