Предисловие
Настоящее учебное пособие является второй частью «Практического курса разговорного английского языка» и предназначено для студентов II курса неязыковых специальностей.
Пособие рассчитано на дальнейшее развитие навыков устной и письменной речи в результате овладения речевыми образцами, содержащими новую лексику по темам, предусмотренным программой.
Одновременно с этим закрепляются уже известные из первой части разговорные модели и составляющие их словарные единицы. Кроме того, содержащийся в пособии аутентичный материал знакомит студентов с оригинальными образцами британской и американской устной речи, а также с межкультурными особенностями стран изучаемого языка.
Данное пособие состоит из 6 разделов (Units) – Education, Youth’s problems, Khabarovsk, Around the World, Environmental Problems, Shopping – каждый из которых делится на части, объединенные общей темой раздела и активизирующие использование лексики.
Каждая часть содержит аутентичный текст, после которого следуют упражнения, направленные на углубленную работу над речевыми моделями, на изучение, толкование и пересказ текста, а также на расширение словарного запаса студентов и анализ лексических единиц в целях развития навыков устной и письменной речи.
Чередование упражнений, направленных на различные виды деятельности, позволяет внести разнообразие в подачу материала с целью закрепления и активизации в речи новой лексики.
В основе всей системы упражнений данного пособия лежит принцип последовательного нарастания языковой сложности и постепенный переход упражнений репродуктивного типа к упражнениям продуктивного типа; устные упражнения чередуются с письменными и завершаются заданиями проективного и композиционного характера.
Пособие рассчитано как на самостоятельную работу студентов, так и на аудиторную под руководством преподавателя.
Наличие словаря в конце каждой части не только облегчает работу над материалом, но и расширяет лингвистическую базу студентов.

The aim of British education is to develop fully the abilities of individuals, for their own benefits and of society as a whole.
In Great Britain education is compulsory for all children from 5 to 16 years of age, but some pupils remain at school for 2 years more, to prepare for further higher education. Post school education is organized flexibly, to provide a wide range of opportunities for academic and vocational education and to continue studying through out life.
Administration of state schools is decentralized. The department of education is responsible for national education policy, but it doesn't run any schools, if doesn't employ teachers, or prescribe curriculum or textbooks. All schools are given a considerable amount of freedom. According to the law only one subject is compulsory. That is religions instruction.
Pre-school education
Pre-school education in England begins at the age of 3 or 4. Around half of the children at this age attend nursery schools or play grounds mostly organized by parents. Children of this age need care as well as education. That's why kids play a lot, learn to listen attentively and to behave.
Primary education
Children receive preschool education under the age of 5 in England, Walls and Scotland, and at 4 in Northern Ireland in nursery school or in infant's classes in primary schools.
Lessons start at 9 a.m. and are over at 4 p.m. They are taught "3 R's": reading, writing, and arithmetic. Pupils have a lot of fun at school, drawing, reading, dancing or singing.
At 7 many children move to junior school or department.
Most of children (over 90%) go to state schools where education is free. Only a small proportion of them attend private (Public) or independent schools. Most independent schools are single-sex, but the number of mixing schools is growing. Till recently most junior school children had to seat for the eleven-plus examination. It usually consisted of an arithmetic paper and an intelligent test.
Secondary Education
Secondary Education begins at 11. According to the results of the exam at primary school children are sent to Grammar, Technical or Secondary modern schools. Those who did well in the examination go on to a grammar school, while these who failed go to a secondary modern school or technical college. Grammar schools provide an academic course from 11 to 18.
They prepare children for national examinations such as the General Certificate of Education (GCE) at ordinary (at the age of 16) and advanced (A) levels (at the age of 18). These examinations qualify children for the better jobs, and for higher education.
The education in secondary modern schools is based on practical schooling, which allows entry into various skilled and unskilled jobs. Pupils finish such kind of school at the age of 16.
They give a very limited education. Pupils get instruction in woodwork, metalwork, sewing, shorthand, typing and cooking. So-called comprehensive schools began to appear after World War 2. They are mostly mixed schools, which can provide all the courses given in grammar, Technical and Secondary modern schools.
Classes of pupils are called "forms" and are numbered in secondary school from one to six, beginning with the first form. Nearly all schools work a five-day week, and are closed on Saturdays. The day starts at about 9 o'clock with three hours of lessons (divided by short breaks) in the morning and two more hours of lessons after the lunch break. School normally finishes between three and four, for younger children the day is shorter.
Instead of one very long holiday in the summer with very short breaks at other times, as in the rest of Europe, English schools usually divide their year into three "terms" starting at the beginning of September: Autumn term (Christmas holiday about 2,5 weeks); Spring term (Easter holiday about 2 weeks) and Summer term (Summer holiday about 6 or 7 weeks). The Comprehensive Schools have their own "grammar school" classes and "Modern classes".
Every pupil has to choose a set of subjects to learn. If he takes up Art he will study English Literature, Music, Art, Drama and foreign languages. If he is good at exact and natural sciences, he will learn Sciences: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geography, Economics and Technical Drawing.
The British government encourages careers education in the country. That's why secondary schools try to break down the barriers between education and business. They set up close links with firms to allow their students to take part in business activities.
Higher Education in The UK
There are more than 60 universities in the UK The leading universities are Cambridge, Oxford and London English universities differ from each other in traditions, general organization, internal government, etc. British universities are comparatively small, the approximate number is about 7-8 thousand students. Most universities have fewer than 3000 students, some even less than 1500 ones. London and Oxford universities are international, because people from many parts of the world come to study at one of their colleges. A number of well-known scientists and writers, among them Newton, Darwin, Byron were educated in Cambridge. A university consists of a number of departments: art, law, music, economy, education, medicine, engineering, etc. After three years of study students take the Degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science. After post-graduate courses they get the Master's Degree. If they continue their research they receive the Doctor's Degree. Besides universities there are at present in Britain 300 technical colleges, providing part-time and full-time education. The organization system of Oxford and Cambridge differs from that of all other universities and colleges. The teachers are usually called Dons. Part of the teaching is by means of lectures organized by the university. Teaching is also carried out by tutorial system. This is the system of individual tuition organized by the colleges. Each student goes to his tutor's room once a week to read and discuss an essay which the student has prepared. Some students get scholarship but the number of these students is comparatively small. There are many associates and clubs at Cambridge and Oxford. The most celebrating at Cambridge is the Debating Society at which students discuss political and other questions with famous politicians and writers. Sporting activities are also numerous. It should be mentioned that not many children from the working-class families are able to receive the higher education as the fees are very high (more than ₤ 1000 a year). Besides that special fees are taken for books, for laboratory works, exams and so on.
