VII. Translate into English
Адамдар өз денсаулықтарын күтінулері тиіс деп ойлаймын.
Егер сіздің денсаулығыңыз жақсы болса, көңіл күйіңіз де жақсы болады.
Біздің денсаулығымыз көп нәрселерге тәуелді; жеген тамағымызға, әдеттерімізге, дене шынықтыруымызға
Таза ауада көп жүрудің әркімге маңызы зор.
Біз көп жемістер мен көкөністер жеуіміз керек, себебі олар дәрумендерге бай.
Біз көп тамақтанбауымыз керек.
Күніне бір алмадан жесең, дәрігердің көмегі қажет емес.

VII. Work with text
I’ll repeat and I think you’ll agree with me that nobody wants to be ill. Tell me the ways to keep fit. What are the ways to be healthy? (They answer)
At home you were to read and to translate the text “Keeping Fit”. Let’s read it and then discuss it.
Keeping Fit
Good health is not something we are able to buy at the chemist’ and we can’t depend on getting it back with a quick visit to the doctor when we are ill, either. We often ruin our health by poor diet, stress, bad working environment and carelessness. By keeping fit, changing bad habits or the surrounding conditions we can make our body last without major problems. And what are the ways to keep fit?
First of all you must miss no chance of outdoor activities as an antidote to our sedentary lives. Skating or skiing in winter and swimming in summer must become part of your everyday life.
Second, exercise. You must exercise whenever you can – in the morning or in the evening. Third, regular meals are a must if you want to keep fit. Try to avoid going without any food for hours.
Nowadays, health specialists promote the idea of wellness for everybody. Wellness means achieving the best possible health within the limits of your body. One person may need fewer calories than another. Some people might prefer a lot easier exercise to more strenuous exercise.
The English people have become very concerned about their health recently. In fact, fitness has become almost a national obsession. In large cities and towns alike people jog regularly, join sports teams and going to health clubs and Fitness Centers to work out.
Now prepare to answer my questions.
1) How do we ruin our health?
2) What idea do health specialists promote nowadays?
3) What is wellness?
4) What is a national obsession today?
5) How do people keep fit in big cities?
6) What are the ways to keep fit?
IX. Have a discussion.
Ex. 10 Now you know what to do to be healthy and fit. So, you can give advice. Now let’s read the situation and help the person.
B. George Smith smokes 40 cigarettes a day. He gets up late every morning, and drives to a café in the next street. He has a big breakfast and takes three spoons of sugar in his tea. Then he drives to the pub, and has 3 or 4 pints of beer before a big lunch. He never has any fruit after his lunch, because he prefers to have cake or sweets. The only exercise he gets is when he walks upstairs for his afternoon sleep. Later, he has a few more pints of beer and a big dinner, and then he watches television till midnight. At 2. 00 he goes to bed, has a few last cigarettes, and goes to sleep with all his windows closed.
Let’s sum up the information we’ve learnt. What are the ways to keep fit?
X. Make up a dialogue.
– There are situations. Make up the dialogues. Let’s make compliments to each other. (Cards)
