Pupil 7:

«Hamlet, Prince of Denmark»

«To be, or not to be, that is the question
Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer
The sling and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing, and them
To die, to sleep No more and by a sleep to say we end
The heart — ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh in heir to; It`s a consummation
Devoutly to be wish`d. To die, to sleep —
To sleep, perchance to dream…»

Pupil 8:

Быть или не быть — вот в чем вопрос;
Что благородней; думали покоряться;
Пращам и стрелам яростной судьбы,
Иль ополчась на море смут, сразить их
Противоборством? Умереть, уснуть
И только, и сказать, что сном кончаешь
Таску и тысячу природных мук,
Наследие плати, — как такой развязки
Не жаждать? Умереть, уснуть — Уснуть.

Pupil 9:

Tir`d with all these, for restful death I cry,
As, to behold desert a beggar born.
And purest faith unhappily,
And gilded honour shamefully, misplac`d
And maiden virtue rudely stampeded,
And right perfection wrongfully disgrac`d,
And strength by Limping sway disabled,
And art made tongue tied by authority,
And folly doctor like controlling skill
And simple truth miscall`d simplicity And captive good attending captain ill
Tir`ed with all these from these would I begone,
Save that to die, I leave my Love alone.

Pupil 10: Shakespeare is known as a writer of delightful comedies and dramas. The Tragedies «Othello», «Romeo and Juliet» and «Hamlet» strike by depth of thought. His plays translated into many languages are performed on the stage of the best theatres of the world. His «Othello» was translated in Kazakh by M. O. Auezov.

Teacher: Dear teachers and students! I think you have enjoyed the play. The students of 9a and 10a were tried you feel the old times of Shakespeare`s world.
