1. Организационный момент. Введение в тему.
Dear friends! Today we are speaking about great traits of character such as honour, valour, glory. A famous Russian general A.Suvorov said: “ A courageous deed is more reliable than some words.”Another outstanding general Napoleon Bonaparte said:” Love and Motherland are the most important dignity of a man.” Each country has its heroes. Russian warriors always served it. They are called “sons”. There are a lot of famous figures in Russian history, who linked their lives with heroic historical pages. Later we are speaking about them. But before, I’m going to ask some questions.
2. Речевая зарядка
Think and answer, please:
Are you a patriot of your country?
(Yes, sure/It’s difficult to explain now)

What is Russia like?

What are Russian people like?
(Russians are known to be generous, kind, hospitable.)
Are you interested in our history? Why?

4.1 Well, return to those glorious days in 1812 year. What do we know about them? Look at the screen and listen to me. (Презентация.)
In June 1812 the emperor of France Napoleon Bonaparte attacked our country without declaration. He said:” If I take Kiev I‘ll take Russian legs, if I take Petersburg I’ll owned its head. But if I take Moscow I’ll catch its heart!” His well-gunned troupes crossed the river Neman and invaded our lands. It was unexpected for Russian tsar Alexander I and the best Russian generals were demanded. I had asked you to find information about heroes of Russian-French War.
4.2 Выступление учащихся
- One of the greatest Russian general was M. I. Kutuzov. He was born in a rich noble family and got a perfect education. Kutuzov was good at Maths and languages. He was sociable, brave, creative and had a good sense of humour. Young Kutuzov made an excellent military carrier. He took part in some battles during the war with Turkey and was made famous with heroic deeds. On the 22nd of August his troops came up to the village Borodino where was held one of the greatest battle of 19 century. The forces were not equal. The general invented a war ruse. He ordered to fire Moscow. As a result Bonaparte lost and had to come back. People respect Kutuzov for his skill, courage, deed, ambitions. He was a real patriot of Russia.
- Another famous warrior was prince P.I.Bagration. He was born in a noble George family. He has served Russia since 1782. Bagration followed his teachers Suvorov and Kutuzov. He had a big experience. The general also participated in the battle near Borodino where was mortally hurt. He died and was buried there.
- Davydov D.V. was a hero of this war too. He was born in Moscow in a noble family.
Denis dreamed to be a warrior when he was a child. He has served since 1801 as a cavalryman.
Davydov was mad about literature and composed verses. During the war with Napoleon he organized partisan detachment and fought in French rear. He made an excellent carrier. Russian people admire him for his deeds and like his poetry where he had done honor to Russian solders especially to hussars.
Thanks to your reports. Who wants to give commentaries? (To sum up, I would like to say in spite of their noble birth these people served Russia best, shared their lives and fortune with ones of all Russian people. I am proud of them and look up to./ They are my example to follow. They are real patriots.)
5. Работа с аутентичным текстом.
You know that writers and poets, painters and musicians commemorated those events in their works. Outstanding Russian writer Lev Tolstoy made a real masterpiece “War and Peace.” Now you are reading the extract and choose A,B, or C for each question.(1-6)
With 4,000 exhausted men, Bagration had been entrusted to delay the entire enemy army for twenty-four hours .This respite was indispensable to Kutuzov in order for him to get his transport-burdened army out of reach of the French troops, outnumbering his own three to one.
-Gentlemen, what does this mean?
You can't leave your posts! Take you, Captain. You should be ashamed of yourself, Captain Tushin. An officer should set a good example, and where're your boots? If the alarm were sounded, you'd be in your stocking feet! Wouldn't that be a pretty sight? So return to your posts, gentlemen.
-The soldiers say you go faster without boots on.
-Will you return to your posts?
It was getting closer and closer, that special moment, for which so much work had been done and so much hardship endured, for which soldiers had been drilled for fifteen years, homes and families left, and a peasant turned into a warrior, for which 80,000 men lived in the field, without wives and children, moving through a strange, unknown country. They lived in the fields, on the roads, in the woods, neglecting all the amenities of a habitual human life.
For all those men, a road was not the way to their family, pleasures or work, but a way of bypassing or attacking, a house was not the hearth and home, but the ambush position, people were not their brothers,-but the tools and the necessary victims of death.
-No, my friend, if a man could know what would be after his death, none of us would fear death.
-That's how it is, my friend. Fear it or not, you won't escape it. But you fear it anyway... There, you smart people. You artillerymen are so smart because you can take everything with you, both vodka and snacks. And still you fear.
Though they say that your soul will go to Heaven...
-We know there's no Heaven, it's all just the atmosphere.
-Come on, give us a taste of your herbal vodka, Tushin.
-With my pleasure.
-And yet, to fathom your future life...
It has begun! Here it is!
It has begun! The battle!
It's terrible, but glorious!
Can't you see what's happening?
The French!
Fine looking soldiers.
God be with us!
Captain Tushin's battery had been forgotten. The troops assigned to cover it had withdrawn. The enemy could not conceive that anyone would be so foolhardy as to go on fighting with four unprotected guns. On the contrary, the French supposed that it was here, in the center, that the main Russian forces were concentrated.
- Gentlemen, everyone fall back.
- Fall back everyone!
- What shall we fire, Captain?
- Nothing. A shell!
Fire!
What do you know! Firing again.
Captain Tushin! Captain!
Have you gone mad? Haven't you
been ordered twice to fall back?
I just... I...
