T: Well-done. Can we say that “Every man is the architect of his own future”?
Ps: Yes.
3. Now open your text books. Page 88. You’ve mentioned the water is very important for a man. You’re going to read the text “The disappearing sea”. But before it look at the photos in the article and on the screen. Say what you know about the Aral Sea (ex. 1 p. 88) – 3 мин.

But first look at the screen:

T: Are you ready to listen to the text?
Ps: Yes.
Speaker 1
I went somewhere the other day and they had a huge area of the town just dedicated to different types of recycling bins for rubbish. I thought it was a great idea. I’m all for it!
Speaker 2
The thing about wind power is that it’s cheap and clean – and it’s just there for the taking, if we choose to use it. I think it’s quite astonishing when you look around and see how much nature still has to offer us!
Speaker 3
The thing is, I can understand why people need wood, but often they don’t realize that cutting down forests can have a negative effect on the environment.
Speaker 4
Well, I think you’d be surprised just how many trees are actually being planted in the world every day. It’s not all bad news, you know! I’m certainly not that pessimistic about it.
1 – b – recycling bins for rubbish
2 – f – wind power
3 – c – deforestation
