The modern game started in the 1870’s and was meant to be played on the garden lawns of English manor houses – hence the name: lawn tennis.Tennis is still played on grass courts, mainly in England. The most famous of these, of course, is Wimbledon. Wimbledon is a suburb of London and it was here, in 1877, that the first Tennis Championships have been held. Apart from during the 1st and 2nd World Wars, the All-England Tennis Championships have been held at Wimbledon every year and are regarded as the most important Tennis Championship in the world. The Wimbledon Fortnight takes place in the last week of June and the first week of July.Because the Championships have become so popular, thousands of people flock to see the great tennis stars playing and have to book tickets many months in advance in order to see the big matches.The other major tennis championships in the world are The French Open, the Australian Open and the United States Open. (They are known as ‘open’ because entry is open to anyone who qualifies to play at that high level.) To win all four singles titles in one year is known as the ‘Grand Slam’. In the whole history of modern tennis, only three women: Maureen Connolly, Margaret Court and Steffi Graf; and two men: Don Budge and Rod Laver (he did it twice) have managed to achieve this. There are several other players who have won all of these championships, but not in the same year.TUESDAY: WRITING [15]For about how long has the game of tennis existed? _______________________In which country did modern tennis start? _____________________________On what surface was tennis originally played? ___________________________Where are the most important championships in the world held?___________________________________________________________________What are the names of the four main tennis championships in the world?______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________What does the word “Grand Slam” mean?______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Name one woman and one man who has won the Grand Slam title.___________________________________________________________________LANGUAGEALPHABETICAL ORDERFill in the missing letters from the alphabet in the blocks:acdfgjkloqtuwyzWrite down the letters which belong to the following numbers and see what words will be formed. 2.1.1 8, 15, 13, 5, 23, 15, 18, 11 = h o m e w o r k2.1.2 19, 20, 15, 18, 9, 5, 19 = ____________________2.1.3 2, 15, 14, 5 = ____________________2.1.4 18, 5, 1, 4, 9, 14, 7 = ____________________2.1.5 10, 5, 14, 14 9, 19 = ____________________ 3, 8, 1, 13, 16, 9, 15, 14, 16, 8, 9, 16, 19 = ______________________2.2 A, B, C…ORDER: Arrange the words in alphabetical order:hear, bear, tear, near, rearsteep, sheep, sleep, sweep, suiterepaid, reopen, rent, inside, requiresenorita, sensitive, senior, senator, sentimentalWEDNESDAY: LANGUAGECOUNTABLE AND UNCOUTABLE NOUNSSome nouns in English only have a plural form, such as pants and scissors.
