英語表現演習2 (金 2・3限): Discoveries & inventions of the Industrial Revolution・産業革命の発見・発明

Hello!

How are you? Today we'll look at some important discoveries and inventions of the Industrial Revolution (産業革命の発見、発明). 

The picture above is of the Crystal Palace. This was a famous exhibition in London in the 19th century to show the accomplishments of the Industrial Revolution. Most of the exterior of the building was made of glass reinforced by steel. This exhibition was a great success that showed the British people what industry could do. 

Activity/homework

Look at these pictures below. Which of these discoveries, inventions, or processes came from the Industrial Revolution? Take a guess! Have fun with these!

Cotton

The lathe

Cement

The light bulb

Gasoline

Steelmaking 

How many do you think you got right? We'll check in class!

Discussion circles

Here are the questions for the leaders for our discussion circles. Remember that in any group(s) with only three (3) members, the leader is also the vocabulary master.

Leader questions

For the summarizer:

Are you ready to summarize the reading/CD talk? (Can you give us your summary of the reading/CD talk?) 

For the detail master:

1. When did the Industrial Revolution begin?

2. How were things made before the Industrial Revolution? 

3. What particular industry was quickly developed? 

4. How was agriculture improved? 

(Leaders: Think of 1-2 more details to ask the details master!)

For the vocabulary master:

What is agriculture? 

What are textiles? 

What does population mean? 

What does income mean?
(Leaders: Think of 1-2 more words to ask the vocabulary master!)

Homework

Choose one (1) invention or discovery from the Industrial Revolution, and research about it. Note down some important facts about it - especially about anything mechanical or electrical - and find one (1) picture of it. 

Bring it in and we'll share it in the next class. See you then!

英語表現演習3 (金・2): International standards for electrical plugs & sockets・海外の配線用差込接続器

Hello!

How are you? Today let's look at some international standards for electrical plugs and sockets.  

Look at the picture above. It's an illustration of a electrical plug and socket set from the U.S. from the early 20th century. It's very different from what we have today, isn't it? 

Activity 

Look at the pictures below. They show different configurations of plugs and sockets from different countries (and areas). Can you guess, and match, the correct configurations with the correct countries and areas? 

When you match, describe shapes and configurations as ways to help you guess, and try to remember, where the plugs and sockets might be used. 

例えば：A: This socket has two round holes, plus a third one that's semi-circular. The bottom one is the earth, and it's set in a little from the surface for the plug to go in. I'm guessing that it comes from Europe - maybe Northern Europe. I'm not sure, but that's my guess. What do you think? 

B: You might be right. We can look this up on the internet. So how about this one? It has three pins on the plug, and the earth is set in a different direction. Where do you think you'd find this? I think maybe in...

U.S./Canada (North America) & Japan        Italy (southern Europe)

the U.K & Ireland        Russia (parts of eastern Europe)  

Denmark (northern Europe)        Germany (most of the EU)          

1. 

2. 

3.

4. 

5. 

6. 

Homework
When you are finished, do a little research and find out where these plugs and sockets are used. 

Take care! See you next class!
