I hope you remember that last lesson we started to talk about the famous American writer O’ Henry! Today we are going to find out some details about his life.

Your home task for today was to start reading his story “The last leaf”. So we will check how well you got acquainted with its characters!

Now we are going to listen to some interesting facts about O’ Henry’s life. Some of you prepared information. Listen attentively to each other and make notes if you wish because I’m going to ask questions:

O. Henry (1862-1910)

Pupil 1: O. Henry’s real name was William Sydney Porter. He was an American short-story writer, a master of surprise endings, who wrote about the life of ordinary people in New York City. William Sydney Porter (O. Henry) was born in Greensboro, North Carolina. When William was three, his mother died, and he was raised by his aunt. William liked to read very much, but at the age of fifteen he left school, and then worked in a drug store and on a Texas ranch. He married in 1882.

Pupil 2: In 1884 he worked at a post as a reporter. In 1897 he was put into prison because some workers at the post said he stole money, but we are not sure about it. While in prison O. Henry started to write short stories to earn money for his daughter Margaret. Porter escaped from the prison in 1901 and changed his name to O. Henry.

Pupil 3: O. Henry moved to New York City in 1902. Henry's first collection, Cabbages And Kings appeared in 1904. The second, The Four Million, was published two years later and included his well-known stories "The Gift of the Magi", "The Furnished Room" and "The Last Leaf". O. Henry published 10 collections and over 600 short stories during his lifetime.

Let’s revise the words that you were supposed to meet in the text:

-Johnsy,

-Sue,

-Behrman

-Ivy vine

-Against the wall

We are going to continue to work at the words from the text. Let’s see if you translated them correctly. Tour task is to match the English word combinations with the Russian ones:

To have very little work - иметь озноб

To fall ill - лекарство не поможет

To be all hot and cold -заболеть

A heavy head - иметь мало работы

The medicine won’t help – идти на поправку

To get better - тяжелая голова

There are 6 leaves left - осталось 6 листков

By the way what is special about the word “leaf”, yes you are right! Who can give another example of such building of the plural form?

So you did it great, now lets see how well you understood the general information of the beginning. Answer the following questions giving the right variant:

1. What did Johnsy and Sue do?

a) they were teachers

b) they were students

c) they were painters

2. Why were they happy?

a) Johnsy was very ill

b) Johnsy didn't want to live

c) there was no medicine for Johnsy

4. What did Johnsy count?

c) leaves

Now we are going to recollect some details of the story. You will get cards with the words from the text and your task is to give a situation where the word was used:

Painter, wall, food, to count, room, sister, corridor, soup, medicine

Oh, I see you remember all the information about the beginning! So now you are ready to answer my “special” question. Look at the blackboard, toy can see it there:

Why did Johnsy want to die?

Tour task is to express your opinion in 3-4 sentences. You have several minutes to think it over…Now can you imagine the end of the story? So your last task for today is to create your own ending What it will be like in your opinion,…?

All your ideas are very interesting! Next time we will check whose variant is the closest to the real ending of the srory.

Your home task for the next time is to read the story till the end and to make up 5 questions to the whole plot.
