Тема: Міфи про Йосипа

1.      Reading

 Read and remember new words:

Jealous – ревнивий, заздрісний

Prophetic – віщий

Slavery – рабство

Butler- дворецький

Jail- в’язниця

Disturb – турбувати

Warning – попередження

         Joseph was the second youngest son of Jacob and his favorite. Joseph's brothers were jealous of Jacob's love and offended by Joseph's prophetic dreams (which told of them all bowing down to Joseph) so they plotted together and sold him into slavery.
         He was bought by an Egyptian of high rank, Potiphar, and through his good character eventually gained a high position in that household. While there he meets two men who worked in the Pharaoh's household, his chief butler and chief baker, and accurately interprets dreams they'd been having.
       They eventually leave the jail (the baker to be hanged, the butler to return to work – this is the fulfillment of their dreams) and Joseph is forgotten about.
        Some time later the Pharaoh is plagued by dreams which he cannot remember upon waking but which disturb him. His wise men cannot help him since they don't know what the dreams were of, and eventually the butler remembers about Joseph's skill with dreams and recommends him to pharaoh.
        Joseph is called from the jail and through prayer is able to tell pharaoh what his dreams were  the interpretation.
        The dreams were a warning of 7 years of bountiful crops and then 7 years of hunger.
Pharaoh is pleased that Joseph interpreted the dreams and puts him in charge of storing away crops for the first 7 years so that there will be enough to last Egypt through the 7 years of hunger. Joseph becomes very important and is 2nd most important person after Pharaoh.

Let’s read the biography of a famous American inventor Carver who improved life of millions of people.

George Washington Carver

Early Life

George Washington Carver was born in 1864 near Diamond Grove, Missouri on the farm of Moses Carver. He was born into difficult and changing times near the end of the Civil War. The infant George and his mother kidnapped by Confederate night-raiders and possibly sent away to Arkansas. Moses Carver found and reclaimed George after the war but his mother had disappeared forever. The identity of Carver's father remains unknown, although he believed his father was a slave from a neighboring farm. Moses and Susan Carver reared George and his brother as their own children. It was on the Moses' farm where George first fell in love with nature, where he earned the nickname 'The Plant Doctor' and collected in earnest all manner of rocks and plants.

           Education

He began his formal education at the age of twelve, which required him to leave the home of his adopted parents. Schools segregated by race at that time with no school available for black students near Carver's home. He moved to Newton County in southwest Missouri, where he worked as a farm hand and studied in a one-room schoolhouse. He went on to attend Minneapolis High School in Kansas. College entrance was a struggle, again because of racial barriers. At the age of thirty, Carver gained acceptance to Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa, where he was the first black student. Carver had to study piano and art and the college did not offer science classes. Intent on a science career, he later transferred to Iowa Agricultural College (now Iowa State University) in 1891, where he gained a Bachelor of Science degree in 1894 and a Master of Science degree in bacterial botany and agriculture in 1897. Carver became a member of the faculty of the Iowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanics (the first black faculty member for Iowa College), teaching classes about soil conservation and chemurgy.

          God Gave Them To Me

Carver did not patent or profit from most of his products. He freely gave his discoveries to mankind. Most important was the fact that he changed the South from being a one-crop land of cotton, to being multi-crop farmlands, with farmers having hundreds of profitable uses for their new crops. "God gave them to me" he would say about his ideas, "How can I sell them to someone else?" In 1940, Carver donated his life savings to the establishment of the Carver Research Foundation at Tuskegee, for continuing research in agriculture.

           Carver's reputation is based on his research into and promotion of alternative crops to cotton, such as peanuts, soybeans, and sweet potatoes, which also aided nutrition for farm families. He wanted poor farmers to grow alternative crops both as a source of their own food and as a source of other products to improve their quality of life. The most popular of his 44 practical bulletins for farmers contained 105 food recipes using peanuts.
