Task 1: Imagine that you are doing a project with your friend. You have found some interesting material for the presentation and you want to read the texts to your friend. You have 1.5 minutes to read the text silently, then be ready to read it out aloud. You will not have more than 1.5 minutes to read it.

1. With the rise in recent technology we seem to be rapidly losing the art of conversation. Talking on the phone used to be the means of communication for most people, but over the last 20 years texting or instant messaging has developed into one of the most popular ways of keeping in touch with friends and family.

Recent studies have shown that people are more likely to text than actually talk. Texting is great for quick short messages and meaningless banter. But it is very difficult to have a deep and meaningful text conversation. Firstly, you cannot hear the intonation when someone is texting you. Secondly, texting lacks eye contact and body language, which are crucial facets of face-to-face communication. So, whatever is happening in your world, put that mobile phone down and talk to someone before you forget how.

The New Words:

1. banter |ˈbæntə| - шутливая беседа

2. crucial |ˈkruːʃ(ə)l| - решающий; ключевой

3. facet |ˈfæsɪt| - грань, аспект

2. There is nothing fancy or expensive about happiness. On the contrary, happiness is simple and slow. It means choosing peace and quiet over excitement. It is wearing your old pyjamas and watching a movie on the day before Christmas. It is sitting in your window watching the weather while sipping your favourite tea on a rainy day. It is looking into the bonfire surrounded by your friends and family while your bread is slowly baking.

Happiness is always about appreciating the simple pleasures in life and thus it can be achieved on a really low budget. You cannot buy the right atmosphere or a sense of togetherness. It's all about time, interest and engagement in the people around you. Thus, happiness is an atmosphere which is not improved by spending more money on it, but rather, in some ways, the opposite. After all, the best things in life are absolutely free.

3. The life of Indians is centered in the family. Extended families often live together, with two or more adult generations, or brothers, sharing a house. In much of the countryside, neighboring houses share a wall, so from the street one sees a continuous wall pierced by doorways. In other areas, in the south for example, the main house will have a veranda on the street, with an open courtyard behind. As people get richer, they introduce improvements like tiled roofs to their houses. Most home activity is outside in the compound courtyard or on the verandas of the house.

Only in a few parts of India do people live on their farmland. The village is thus a settlement area, or a set of settlement areas, surrounded by unbroken fields, with farms frequently made up of separated plots. A large village will have a primary school, and a small shop or two.

Task 2:

1. You are considering visiting a new local food store and now you are calling to find out more information.

- location
- working hours
- car parking
- public transport
- entertainment
- organic products
- if it is an indoor /outdoor store
- things to buy
- number of stalls
- local products
- a possibility to have a bite at the store

Also, adolescents can spend time with their friends, sleep and walk in the open air to have a rest after a tiring day.

Early in the morning, Evenki natives in the hills northwest of Lake Baikal observed a column of blue light. It was nearly as bright as the Sun, and it was moving across the sky. About ten minutes later, there was a flash and a sound similar to artillery fire. Eyewitnesses reported that the source of the sound was moving from the east to the north following the movement of the blue light. The sound was accompanied by a shock wave that knocked people off their feet and broke windows in the houses hundreds of kilometres away. As it often happens, eyewitnesses’ accounts varied regarding the sequence and duration of the events. On that day the legendary Tungus meteorite or a small comet fell on the Earth near the river called Podkamennaya Tunguska in Siberia. It happened at about seven o’clock in the morning, on the 30th of June 1908. The first expedition came to the site only ten years later.

Everyone loves hobbits. Ask anyone who's fan of the Lord of the Rings to choose their favourite character and nine times out of ten it will be Samwise Gamgee. He's loyal, innocent and determined and without him Frodo couldn't have saved Middle Earth. He represents the Shire with all its comfort, safety and stability and these same attributes make Hobbit Holes special.

For those whose hearts belong forever in the Shire, there's place they can go to. Called Hobbiton, it's a movie set experience that's nestled in the heart of a small town in New Zealand. Lush pastures are punctuated with 44 tiny Hobbit holes, the Green Dragon Pub, Mill, double arched bridge and the famous Party Tree built directly into the sides of rolling hills. The daily tours allow visitors to enter the small lairs and pretend they're one of the mythical humanoids.

The first human carrying flight technology was the hot air balloon. While unmanned balloons have been around in some form for thousands of years, the first flight with people on board was in 1782.

The large balloon on top is called an "envelope". It holds hot air created by a heat source known as a burner. The burner creates an open flame by burning a mix of propane and air. Hot air balloons are capable of floating because the hot air inside the envelope has a lower density than the colder air outside. The top of the balloon usually has a vent which allows the pilot to control the speed of ascent or descent. Passengers typically stand in a basket beneath the envelope.

While most envelopes have a standard balloon shape, others are designed to look like animals, cartoon characters and other fun objects.

Stress is the feeling of being under emotional pressure and is the body’s way of attempting to deal with a tough situation. It can be caused by anything from a real physical threat such as bullying to a simple fear of making a presentation in front of the class and can affect how you think, feel, behave and how your body functions. When the body feels stressed, it produces hormones to make you more alert and capable of handling the situation. These hormones speed up the metabolism by increasing breathing and heart rate and raising blood pressure.
A reasonable amount of stress is good for the body. It keeps you on your toes and improves your performance. However, frequent stress causes the nervous system to remain on alert and to produce excessive amounts of stress hormones. This can have an adverse effect on your performance, leave you feeling tired and weakened and eventually cause health problems such as acne, high blood pressure, depression or other diseases. Obviously, managing stress should be on everyone’s mind.

Task 1.

Read the text aloud.

Canada's original inhabitants are Indians. The very name Canada comes from a word meaning "village" in one of the local languages of Indian tribes. These tribes lived on the territory of modern Canada before the first Europeans arrived in the 11th century. They soon left, but more Europeans came in the 16th century and were made welcome because they brought manufactured goods and traded them for furs and other native products. However, the Europeans settled down and gradually displaced Indians over the next 250 years.

European settlers came in a series of waves. First were the French, followed by the English, and these two groups are considered the founding nations. France lost its part of territory to Britain in a war in 1760, but most of the French-speaking colonists remained. Their effort to preserve their language and culture is still an issue of Canadian history and has led in recent years to a movement to become independent from the rest of Canada.

Task 2. Study the advertisement.

Family Relations. Лексика для подготовки к ОГЭ
   It is impossible to imagine our life without family. Family is believed by many people to be the most important thing in their life while other people consider it differently. I would like to express my own opinion on this point of view.
   I am in favour of the idea that family is the most essential part of people’s life. Firstly, everybody needs love, care and protection, parents, grandparents and relatives can really give all these things. Therefore, people do not feel lonely and sad. Secondly, family brings children up and provides them with education. Humans really should appreciate the fact that parents give them the chance to be not only rich and smart but good and honest, too. Finally, family passes traditions and life’s guidelines that humans use in the future. For example, it is an attitude to other people, family or children. It is really important for people’s life in society.
   Some people think differently. They consider that family is not very significant in life and relatives just do not let people have high results.
   I do not fully agree with the above statement because I think that family helps to achieve aims and goals in life. Having some difficulties and problems, the support of loved ones can help to solve these problems and achieve greater results than people might think.
   In conclusion, I would like to say that family is the most significant thing in our life. It gives people everything and surrounds humans with care and love that all people need.
More helpful expressions
strict (kind = indifferent, indulgent) parents
misunderstanding
to cause family problems
agressive behaviour
be free to decide = (be independent)
be taken seriously
allow to do
want me to do (= make me do)
to overcome difficulties / misunderstading
be difficult to solve

It depends on whether your parents are strict or kind.
The common cause of misunderstanding is generation gap.
The lack of understanding can cause family problems.
This can lead to agressive behaviour from the side of teenagers.
Young people want to be free to decide what to do.
Teenagers should be taken seriously.
My parents don’t allow me to come home after 11 p.m.
My parents want me to do well at school.
There are youth organisations that can help to overcome misunderstanding.
Some problems are difficult to solve.

Writing an e-mail:
В 2021 году формат личного письма на ОГЭ/ЕГЭ по английскому языку изменился. В разделе 4 «Задание по письменной речи» экзаменационной работы в задании 35 необходимо написать личное (электронное) письмо в ответ на электронное письмо друга по переписке.
Количество слов 100-120 (минимальное - 90 слов, максимальное - 132 слова).
При определении соответствия объёма представленной работы требованиям считаются все слова, с первого слова по последнее, включая вспомогательные глаголы, предлоги, артикли, частицы. В электронном письме обращение и подпись также подлежат подсчёту.
При этом:
стяжённые (краткие) формы (например, I've, it's, doesn't, wasn't) считаются как одно слово;
числительные, выраженные цифрами (например, 5, 29, 2010, 123 204), считаются как одно слово;
числительные, выраженные словами (например, twenty-one), считаются как одно слово;
сложные слова (например, pop-singer, English-speaking, thirty-two) считаются как одно слово;
сокращения (например, UK, e-mail, TV) считаются как одно слово.
План письма в ОГЭ по английскому языку
обращение (слева, на отдельной строке), например, Dear Jim/Alice, Hi, Jim/Alice,
После обращения нужно обязательно поставить запятую;
благодарность за полученное письмо и ссылка на предыдущие контакты (начало письма) например, «Thank you for your recent letter (e-mail). I am always glad to hear from you.»;
ответы на три вопроса друга по переписке (основная часть письма). Для того чтобы письмо было логичным, можно использовать фразы: «You asked me about … Well, I can say that …» или «As you are interested in … I'd like to tell you that …» и т. п.;
Помните:
а) сколько вопросов, столько ответов. Например, друг спросил: «Where do you prefer watching films-at the cinema or at home and why?». Значит, нужно не просто написать «I prefer watching films at the cinema », но и аргументировать: «because …».
б) соблюдайте грамматическую структуру вопросов и ответов. Если друг спрашивает «What would you make film about if you had a chance?», надо, чтобы в ответе была конструкция «If I had a chance, I would make a film about…».;
в) используйте в письме сокращения (I'm, can't, I'd like), неформальные слова-связки (well, also, by the way, anyway, so, actually).
вежливое завершение письма, например, «Well, I'd better go now as I have to do my homework.», «Actually, I've got to go now. It's time for my favourite TV show.»
упоминание о дальнейших контактах, например, «Write back soon»; «Hope to hear from you soon»; «Can't wait to hear from you » и т.д.;
завершающая фраза, например, «Best wishes»; «All the best»; «Love»; «Yours» (на отдельной строке). После неё всегда ставится запятая;
подпись автора (только имя без фамилии и точки, на отдельной строке).
В новом формате письма адрес указывать не нужно.

Thank you very much for your letter. It's always nice to hear from you.
In your letter you asked me about films. Well, I can say that I like different kinds of films. But my favourite genre is comedy. I'm fond of watching comedies because they make me laugh and feel relaxed.

Take care and keep in touch!

Variant 8

Task 1.

Read the text out aloud.

Japan is an island nation in East Asia, located in the North Pacific Ocean off the coast of the Asian continent. Japan comprises the four main islands in addition to numerous smaller islands. Tokyo is the country's capital and largest city.

Mountains dominate Japan's landscape, covering 75 to 80 percent of the country. Historically, the mountains were barriers to transportation, limiting the economic development of isolated areas. However, with the development of tunnels, bridges, and air transportation in the modern era, the mountains are no longer an obstacle. The Japanese have long celebrated the beauty of their mountains in art and literature, and today many mountain areas are preserved in national parks.

Most of Japan's people live on plains and lowlands found mainly along the lower courses of the country's major rivers, on the lowest slopes of mountain ranges, and along the sea coast. This concentration of people makes Japan one of the world's most crowded countries.

Practise reading the words:

1. Tokyo |ˈtəʊkɪəʊ| - Токио (столица Японии)

2. numerous |ˈnjuːm(ə)rəs| многочисленный, многие, множественный

3. dominate |ˈdɒmɪneɪt| доминировать, преобладать, господствовать

4. era |ˈɪərə| эпоха, эра, летоисчисление

I'm sure they will illustrate perfectly the project we are working on - “Noble professions” - because in the first picture there is a young woman who is a teacher, while the second picture shows a woman who is a doctor, a pediatrician, to be exact.

The teacher is at the lesson. She is pointing to some lines in her pupil’s exercise-book. The doctor is in her room at a hospital examining a young patient’s lungs with a stethoscope. The professions of a teacher and that of a doctor are both noble. Though both jobs are aimed at helping people, there is an obvious difference between them. While the teacher develops her students’ minds and broadens their horizons, the doctor helps her patients to stay healthy and keep fit.

I’m sure one of the advantages of a teacher’s job is that it motivates a person to develop themselves as a personality. However, there is a disadvantage - the necessity to check a great number of students’ works – that is really time consuming and monotonous. The main attractive feature of a doctor’s job is that doctors deal with patients and when patients get over their illnesses, a doctor feels satisfaction. There is a disadvantage of making a mistake when making a diagnosis.

I believe, the photos I have found illustrate the project perfectly as in both of them we see real professionals who are satisfied with their work.

In my case, I wouldn’t like to choose one of these professions as my future career as I am not cut out for the jobs. I don’t have enough patience to deal with children and sick people.

Call me back and tell if you find these photos suitable for our project.

Note:

- проблема проекта должна прослеживаться на протяжении всего высказывания

- обращение и завершение высказывания - максимально естественно

- описание, конечно, может быть про место и действие, но нужно, чтобы оно было привязано к теме проекта

Ways of Shopping

Speaking Task 4 (H/t for 28/10)

Task 4. Imagine that you are doing a project “Life without gadgets” together
with your friend. You have found some illustrations and want to share the
news. Leave a voice message to your friend. In 2.5 minutes be ready to tell the
friend about the photos:

• give a brief description of the photos (2 features connected with the subject of

the project in each photo minimum);

• say in what way the pictures are different (2 features connected with the

subject of the project minimum);

• mention the advantages and disadvantages (1–2) of the two types of books;

• explain how these photos illustrate the project “Life without gadgets”;

• express your opinion on the subject of the project – whether you would like to

live without gadgets and why yes or no.

You will speak for not more than 3 minutes (2–3 sentences for every item of

the plan, 12–15 sentences total). You have to talk continuously.

Hello, (name) I hope you received the photos I sent you (Have you received the photos I sent you?)

I'm sure they will illustrate perfectly the project we are working on - different ways of shopping - because in the first picture there is a person who is doing shopping in a mall,while the second picture shows a girl who is shopping online.

In fact, these pictures are the evidence of the opposite trends we can observe nowadays - buying things on the Internet and going real-life shopping.

Advantages and disadvantages (1-1, 1-1) -

Эта часть высказывания должна быть наиболее объемной

Opinion (If you ask me, ...to tell the truth, ...honestly, ...) Необходимо рассказать, какой вариант шопинга, чтения, ...) ты предпочитаешь, НЕ ИЛЛЮСТРАЦИИ!!!

ЗАДАНИЕ
Imagine that you are doing a project on what people use their smartphones for. You have collected some data on the subject (see the diagram below). Comment on the data in the diagram and give your personal opinion on the subject of the project.

Write 200–250 words.
Use the following plan:
– make an opening statement on the subject of the project work;
– select and report 2–3 main features;
– make 1–2 comparisons where relevant;
– outline a problem that can arise with using smartphones and suggest the way of solving it;
– draw a conclusion giving your personal opinion on the role of smartphones in our life.

ОТВЕТ
Smartphones have become an integral part of the modern life. People use them for different purposes: sending and receiving email, making phone calls, surfing the Internet, etc. I have done a project on the use of smartphones and now I am going to comment on the data and give my personal opinion on the subject.

According to the research, sending and receiving electronic letters has a strong lead in using smartphones. Seventy-nine per cent of people consider these devices the best means to be in correspondence with their friends and family. At the same time, making phone calls is ranked number two in the purposes smartphones are used for. Specifically, people speak on the phone in seventy-eight per cent of the cases.

The next top positions are held by surfing the Internet and playing games while differing from each other by ten per cent sharp. In fifty-eight cases people connect to the World Wide Web with their smartphones, and in forty-eight cases they take their above-mentioned devices to start a game.
Considering the frequency of using smartphones, sense of sight may take a turn for the worse. To reduce the damage it is highly recommended to buy models with high resolution screen and to make special exercises for the eyes.
In conclusion, I would like to stress the fact that a smartphone is indispensable for everyone because of its functional variety.

Dear Mary,

Thanks a lot for your letter. It was great to hear from you again!

First of all, let me tell you about my one-week holiday in Rome.

Everything was OK, but we didn't like out hotel. It was too noisy and the food was awful. We even had a stomach ache and consulted a doctor. However, all the excursions were extremely interesting. We visited the Vatican and were impressed by the famous St.Peter's Cathedral. It's the biggest and the most beautiful cathedral I've ever seen. All in all, we enjoyed our holiday.

And what about you? What are your plans for the summer? Will you come to visit me? What Russian cities would you like to see? I'll show you lots of interesting places.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Lots of love,

Lucy

14.11.19 Написание эссе

Эссе должно строго соответствовать плану:

вступление — перефразируйте выбранное высказывание;

ваше мнение по теме и 2-3 аргумента в его защиту;

противоположное мнение и 1-2 аргумента в его защиту;

объяснение, почему вы не согласны с противоположным мнением;

заключение, в котором вы перефразируете свою позицию из пункта 2.

Каждая часть текста должна начинаться с нового абзаца, в итоге в сочинении должно быть 5 абзацев.

Проблемой при написании сочинения может стать не только плохое знание иностранного языка, но и наоборот — слишком хорошее. Выпускник может написать сочинение в более свободной форме и отойти от шаблона, комиссия же такой порыв не оценит. Поэтому необходимо писать сочинение строго по плану и в соответствии с критериями.

Рассмотрим, какие ошибки допускали выпускники прошлых лет и как их избежать.

Объём

Текст ответа должен содержать не менее 200 и не более 250 слов, допускается отклонение в 10%. По правилам, если объём сочинения менее 180 слов, за всю работу ставится 0, если больше 275 — проверяют часть сочинения до 250-го слова.

Как избежать ошибок:

Пишите эссе дома на нелинованном листе бумаги. После 10-20 сочинений вы поймёте, какую часть листа занимает нужный объём текста. Это поможет сориентироваться на экзамене.

Правильно считайте слова. За одно слово считают:

краткие формы: can't, didn't, isn't, I'm;

предлоги, артикли, частицы;

числительные, выраженные цифрами: 25, 2006, 1000000;

числительные с процентами 25%;

сложные слова: well‑being, good‑looking, twenty‑five;

сокращения: UN, e‑mail.

Пишите по теме

Если проверяющий посчитает, что сочинение не соответствует выбранной теме, он сразу поставит 0 баллов. Поэтому чем проще – тем лучше. Ничего не выдумывайте, не пускайтесь в пространные размышления. Приводите прямые мнения и аргументы чётко по теме.

Эксперты ФИПИ приводят такой пример из вариантов прошлых лет. Было дано высказывание: “One should read about historical sites before sightseeing — Следует читать об исторических местах перед их посещением”.

Выпускники совершали следующие ошибки в сочинениях:

Не знали значение слов: принимали слово sites за веб‑сайты.

Были невнимательны: вместо sites видели cities и писали о городах.

Упускали смысл высказывания: забывали про слово read, то есть игнорировали чтение о достопримечательностях, и писали только про их посещение.

Ещё одна тема из ЕГЭ 2018 года вызвала трудности: “An early choice of a career path is the key to success — Ранний выбор карьеры — ключ к успеху”.

Многие выпускники не вчитывались в высказывание и строили сочинение вокруг словосочетаний “early choice” и “career path”. В результате писали о своём выборе профессии и о том, когда стоит её выбирать. Смысл же высказывания заключался в том, что ранний выбор профессии обеспечивает дальнейший успех в жизни. Соответственно аргументы «за» должны были быть о том, почему ранний выбор профессии способствует успеху, а «против» — почему он может привести к неудаче.

Как избежать ошибок:

Несколько раз перечитайте оба высказывания. Выберите то, в котором вам понятны все слова и значение предложения в целом.

Перед тем как писать сочинение, ответьте на вопросы: в чём смысл высказывания? С чем вы должны согласиться или не согласиться?

Визуализируйте ответ с помощью майнд‑карты. Обозначьте тему, от неё спустите 2 стрелки — одну с вашим мнением, вторую — с противоположным. От своего мнения спустите 2-3 стрелки и в нескольких словах обозначьте аргументы в его защиту, от противоположного мнения спустите 1-2 стрелки и под ними кратко запишите аргументы в его поддержку.

Перефразируйте тему во вступлении

Во вступлении к заданию №40 выпускники чаще всего совершали следующие ошибки:

Дословно повторяли тему из задания. Например, к высказыванию “Friendship is the greatest gift of life” писали выступление, которое полностью дублирует фразу: “Some people believe that friendship is the greatest gift of life. Others don’t think so”.

Высказывали своё мнение по теме. Например, к теме “Science is the first thing to be financed in the modern world” писали такое вступление: “Modern science helps human progress, that is why it should be financed before other spheres”.

Не обозначали дискуссионный характер темы.

Использовали риторические вопросы.

Как избежать ошибок:

Во вступлении не должно быть вашего мнения. Первый абзац — максимально нейтральный.

Тема должна быть перефразирована, то есть выражена синонимами и близкими по смыслу фразами. Начать можно с помощью фраз‑клише:

Nowadays people are getting more and more concerned about… — В настоящее время люди все больше и больше обеспокоены насчёт …

It is generally accepted that… — Общепринято, что…

A common opinion is that… — Согласно общему мнению…

Для обозначения дискуссионности темы можно использовать фразы‑клише:

There are two points of view on… — Существует несколько точек зрения на….

Some people are convinced that...and others believe that… — Некоторые убеждены что …., другие верят, что…

Не используйте риторические вопросы. Например: Who is right? Which is true?

Аргументы должны соответствовать мнению

В одном из сочинений за мнением: “I think that it is better to read some historical information before visiting historic places” шли такие аргументы: “Firstly, you can find a lot of information in the Internet. Secondly, it may help you in your future life”. Они не соотносятся с высказыванием, так как прямо не отвечают на вопрос: почему всё-таки стоит читать информацию перед посещением исторических мест?

Как избежать ошибок:

Сформулируйте своё мнение по теме высказывания, чётко определитесь: вы за или против.

Для выражения своего мнения используйте фразы‑клише:

My personal view is that… — Моё мнение таково, что...

In my opinion/judgment/view… — По‑моему мнению/суждению/На мой взгляд...

I completely agree/disagree with this statement… — Я совершенно согласна/не согласна с этим утверждением...

I don’t support the idea of… — Я не подерживаю мнение о том, что...

Объясните, почему вы правы в 2-3 аргументах, которые следуют из вашего мнения.

Для перечисления аргументов используйте связки:

Firstly/ first and foremost/ first of all…

Another (positive/ negative) aspect of …

Finally/ Lastly

Представьте, как вам могут возразить в ответ на ваше мнение. Сформулируйте полностью противоположное мнение.

Начните выражать чужое мнение с фраз‑клише:

However… — Хотя...;

On the other hand — С другой стороны...

There is another side to the question of… – Существует и другая сторона вопроса...

Придумайте аргументы в защиту мнения оппонента.

Опровергните контраргументы

В четвёртом абзаце необходимо объяснить, почему вы не согласны с мнением оппонента. Сделать это необходимо, опровергнув контраргументы из третьего абзаца.

Например, во втором абзаце вы поддерживаете мнение "One should read historical sites before sightseeing” и в качестве противоположного в третьем абзаце приводите "I think that it is better to visit historical places than to read information" с контраргументом "The guide will tell you everything during the excursion". В четвёртом абзаце вы должны опровергнуть контраргумент противоположной стороны из предыдущего абзаца, а не придумывать ещё один в доказательство своей правоты.

В примере вам нужно ответить на предложение: "The guide will tell you everything during the excursion". Например, подойдёт ответ: "If you read about sights in advance you will save money because excursion may be expensive".

Как избежать ошибок:

Ответьте только на контраргументы из третьего абзаца. Если вы привели два контраргумента, необходимо опровергнуть оба.

Используйте фразы‑клише:

I strongly disagee with...

I am afraid I cannot agree with the opinion that...

Despite my respect for the opinion that..., I cannot share it because…

Подтвердите своё мнение в заключении

В заключении выпускники чаще всего совершали следующие ошибки:

Отход от темы. Под конец сочинения забывали про тему высказывания и в заключении писали про что‑то совершенно другое. Например, ученик закончил сочинение по теме “One should read about historical sites before sightseeing” следующими словами: “To sum up, I would like to say that sightseeing is wonderful. And we should cherish the memories about those nice places we have visited”. Заключение не соответствует основной теме, так как в нём говорится о посещении достопримечательностей, хотя рассуждать нужно было о том, стоит или нет читать о них.

Не обозначали своё мнение. В заключении по предыдущей теме ученик оставляет проблему неразрешённой: “In conclusion, I want to say, that it is a debatable issue. Everybody must decide themselves if they need to find some historical information before sightseeing”.

Как избежать ошибок:

Держите тему сочинения постоянно перед глазами.

Перефразируйте ваше мнение, о котором вы писали во втором абзаце.

Используйте фразы‑клише для выражения мнения в заключении:

On this basis, I can conclude that… — Исходя из этого, я могу сделать вывод, что…

In conclusion, I would like to stress that… — В заключении я хотел бы подчеркнуть, что…

All in all, I believe that… — В конце концов, я верю, что…

To sum up… — Подводя итоги...

Выучите значения вводных слов и союзов

Для построения грамотного и связного высказывания необходимо правильно использовать вводные слова и союзы. Чаще всего выпускники путают значения этих частей речи и бессмысленно добавляют их в текст в хаотичном порядке.

Как избежать ошибок:

Выучите назубок значения вводных слов и союзов, чтобы не путать их значения. Запомните значения самых распространённых из них:

in addition — к тому же,

moreover — более того,

furthermore — кроме того,

however — тем не менее,

thereby — в связи с этим,

therefore — следовательно,

though — хоть, однако,

although — хотя.

Не используйте более одного вводного слова за раз. Не пытайтесь написать сразу всё, что знаете, например, как здесь: “To my mind, personally, I think that it is better to visit historical places at first. To begin with, firstly, it will be a surprise and you will better remember it”.

Speaking RNE
This is the way to describe photos in the RNE format:

I’ve chosen photo number … (обязательно начинаем с этой фразы!

Отвечаем на вопрос where and when the photo was taken

I took this photo during my holidays (travelling, two years ago) when I was in …. (любой город или страну)

Отвечаем на вопросы what/who is in the photo и what is happening (4-5 предложений)

In the foreground of the picture you can see… (кого мы видим и что они делают)

You can’t see me because I’m taking the photo.

They are very happy because at last their dream came true (если мы видим счастливые лица на фото)

In the background of the picture you can see… (Можно также использовать конструкцию there is/are…)

Отвечаем на вопрос why you keep the photo in your album

I keep this photo in my album because looking at this photo makes me go back in that time. Moreover, I used this photo for my school project (название проекта в зависимости от темы, например My family, My travelling, My hobby и так далее)

Отвечаем на вопрос why you decided to show the picture to your friend

I decided to show this photo to you because it carries pleasant memories.

because I bet that you had never seen anything like that before

Cobras in snake-charming acts are responding to the sight of the flute, not its sound. Snakes don’t really hear music though they are certainly not deaf. They have no external ears or eardrums, but can sense vibrations transmitted up from the ground into their jaw and the belly muscles. They also seem to be able to detect airborne sounds via an inner ear. It used to be thought that snakes could not hear at all because they don’t respond to loud noises but research at Princeton has shown that they have acute hearing.

The key discovery was how the snake’s inner ear functions. It appears that their hearing is tuned to the frequency range of noises and vibrations made by the movement of larger animals, so music would be meaningless to them. Charmed cobras stand upright if threatened and sway in response to the movement of the instrument. If they strike at the flute, they hurt themselves, so they don’t do it again.

Some paintings found in different caves around the world are recognized as the work of Stone Age artists. But what was the purpose of the paintings? Why were they hidden in a dark room where there is no evidence that cave people lived?

No one really knows, but there is one theory that makes great sense. It is called the theory of Sympathetic Magic. According to this, the cave people believed that if they could make a likeness of an animal, they could put a spell over it. This spell would give the tribe power over the live animal.

Stone Age existence depended on killing animals – for food, clothing, and even weapons and tools. The animals were large and fierce; the cave people had only the most simple weapons. Hunters had to be brave and fearless. They needed more than a spear or club; they needed all the magic they could get. The magic could help the hunters catch the animals.

Write an opinion essay on whether your school should
install CCTV cameras. Formal style.
Paragraph plan
Introduction: introduce topic
Para 2: arguments in favour of the topic
Para3: arguments against the topic
Conclusion: summary and opinion or general
statement

Topic sentences for main body paragraphs:
1) On the one hand, CCTV cameras in schools
might make people think twice before they
commit a crime like beating someone up or
stealing someone’s personal property.
2) On the other hand, CCTV cameras add to the
sense that ‘Big Brother’ is watching us—even in
schools.
Introduction:
It is no secret that crime is on the rise. In an effort to
prevent illegal activities such as muggings, burglaries
and robberies, police have placed CCTV cameras in
the streets, outside shops, and in banks and other
buildings. As far as I am concerned, this is a good
practice because it may act as a deterrent to
criminals. But do we really need CCTV cameras in
our schools?
Conclusion:
Generally speaking, I think that having CCTV cameras
in schools is a necessary evil because crimes are on
the increase even in our institutions of education.
Although I do feel that these cameras violate our
rights, if students are not doing anything wrong, they

really don’t have anything to fear, do they?

Comment on the following: All teenagers should have a part time job.

Write 200-250 words.

Use the following plan:

• make an introduction and state your opinion

• give reasons to support your opinion

• state the opposite point of view and explain why you disagree with it

• draw a conclusion

Example:

Many teenagers work and go to school at the same

time. Many of them are doing this for a variety of

reasons. However, in my opinion teenagers should not

be trying to balance a full-time school schedule along

side a work schedule.

To begin with, it is crucial for all young people to get the

best education possible. Having a job could have a

negative effect on a student’s studies. A job can take up

time that a student should be spending on homework. In

addition, a teen’s job may negatively affect their social

life.They are working when they could be taking part in

after-school activities or socialising.

On the other hand, there are those people that would

argue that this is the perfect time for teens to learn

responsibility. They feel that it is good for teenagers to

balance all aspects of life.

Ultimately, I believe teenagers can learn responsibility in

other ways. A formal education that can lead to a serious

career later in life is much more important. I do not support

the idea of teens working while they attend school.

Speaking Task 1 (p. 147)
Model Answer – Student B
I am going to talk about leisure activities for young
people.
Leisure activities are the things we do in our free time
such as sports or hobbies.They are important because
they help to keep us mentally and physically healthy.
When we do something we enjoy in our free time, it

helps us to forget our problems. Whether it’s playing
tennis, listening to music or playing chess, the activity
takes our minds off our work or any other problems we
have.
My friends and I all enjoy playing hockey and we practice
after school 3 days a week. Sometimes we enter interschool
competitions and visit other schools at the
weekends for these. Playing hockey is a fabulous way to
stay healthy and it makes me feel very happy too. I have
been playing hockey since I was ten years old.
As well as playing hockey, I also enjoy reading and
watching films. These are relaxing for me. When I was
younger I didn’t like reading very much. I started reading
the Harry Potter books because one of my friends gave
me the book as a present. Ever since then, I have read
the whole series. I have also seen the films, but I like to
have read the book first. Now, I read all kinds of books,
but when I really want to lose myself, I read Agatha
Christie. I have to keep turning the page to find out who
committed the crime and I forget about everything else.
Films are the same and the nice thing about films is that
you can watch them with your friends and be sociable.
Finding something you enjoy doing in your free time is
important and it helps if your school and your parents
encourage you to try different activities to help you
choose. Some leisure activities can be expensive, such as
horse riding - especially if you have your own horse. I’m
glad I have found activities that I both enjoy and can

afford.

Form 11A
Model Answer – Student A
I am going to talk about shopping habits and in
particular, advertising and the environmental
consequences of shopping.
First of all, people’s shopping habits are changing. My
parents didn’t use to have as much choice as we have
now. The choice of goods to buy and the choice of
places to buy goods is much wider these days. People
spend whole days in shopping malls looking in shops and
comparing prices and products. Shopping has become a
leisure activity for some people.
Online shopping is the biggest change to shopping
habits. Now people can order their groceries from the
supermarket online as well as books, music, DVD’s and
clothes. In fact, just about anything can be bought online
these days, on websites such as eBay.
Sunday trading means that people can go shopping seven
days a week and many shops are open in the evenings or
even 24 hours a day.This is convenient for workers and
for families, as it offers greater freedom of choice as to
how they spend their weekend. It is also good for the
economy when people continue to spend their money
seven days a week.
Television advertising is a very powerful force that
persuades people to buy goods. Products are shown to
improve our lives and we are tempted to try them.
When I was young I often wanted toys that I saw on TV
advertisements. Magazines also contain a lot of
attractive advertisements, making products seem
glamorous and desirable. I have been persuaded to try
beauty products by such advertisements.
Some people do not see the connection between
shopping and the environment.However, shopping might
be bad for the environment. One reason is that so many
goods are pre-packaged in plastic wrapping.This ends up
on our streets and in rubbish dumps and it is not
biodegradable, it takes hundreds of years to break
down. Fortunately, many people are learning how to be
an environmentally friendly shoppers. They are not
taking plastic carrier bags in supermarkets and buying
products that are not pre-packaged avoids unnecessary

waste.We can all help by doing the same.

Comment on the following: In the future traditional shops will disappear and all shopping will be online. What is your opinion? Write 200-250 words, follow the plan:

• make an introduction and state the problem

• express your opinion and give reasons to support your opinion

• state the opposite point of view and explain why you disagree with it

• draw a conclusion

SPEAKING
Give a 2-min talk about a person you admire. Remember to say:
- who the person is and what he/she is like;
-what he/she does/has done in his/her life;
- why you admire him/her;
- what you can do to become like him/her.

Suggested Answer Key
One person I really admire is Madonna. Born
into a large Italian family, she first trained as a
dancer. Today, she is best known for her success
as a pop star, actress and producer. She has had
more number one singles than any other
female singer and she has won numerous
awards for her work. She travels a lot, working
in the USA and the UK and also finds time to do
charity work and be a mother!
Madonna continues to be successful because of
her ability to recreate her image. She is an
important role model for teenagers. She keeps
trying new things and never gives up. I would
like to live such a full life as Madonna. She is

Вы давно мечтали создать проект своего собственного кафе, которое, возможно, будет самым популярным местом города для больших компаний или же наоборот, это будет тихое, уютное место, где можно душевно поговорить с близкими друзьями. А может, оно подойдет для творческих вечеров, где будут звучать стихи или авторские песни. Оно может располагаться на тихой узкой улочке, куда хочется прийти одному и почитать книгу за чашечкой ароматного кофе… Или же возвышать на крыше самого высокого здания в городе с витражными окнами, куда можно пригласить девушку на романтический ужин и посмотреть на звезды под теплым пледом. Расскажите нам о нем. Каким будет его интерьер, блюда, музыка и атмосфера? Какие люди будут в нем работать и какие гости приходить? Мы ждем проект кафе вашей мечты!

Отель для моего города

Какие ассоциации возникают у вас со словом «отель»? Отдых на море, где "все включено" или красивый старинный отель где-нибудь в Европе? А что, если бы сейчас у вас была уникальная возможность открыть его в своем родном городе? Каким бы он был? Отелем выходного дня для жителей города, где можно было бы весь день релаксировать, а потом поужинать в красивом ресторане на веранде под живую музыку? Или это был бы уютное место на берегу реки или, может, на вершине горы? Окунитесь в атмосферу гостеприимства, подумайте, какой отель хотели бы открыть вы? Расскажите о персонале, корпоративном стиле, интерьере… Каких гостей бы он принимал? Какие дополнительные услуги могли бы там быть? Создайте свой, самый лучший отель Кузбасса!

Form 11 Speaking Task 1 (p. 115) (H/t 18.03.17)

Model Answer – Student B

It seems fair to say that the main reason that most

people live in the city is because of the educational and

career opportunities that are available there.There isn’t

as much unemployment in cities and this attracts people

to live there.Also, there are lots of other facilities in the

city that are not as easy to find in the countryside such

as a wider choice of entertainment as well as better

healthcare and other services.

Of course, there are some drawbacks to living in the

city.The main problems are overcrowding and pollution.

In the city everyone lives very close together so you

don’t have as much space to live in as people in the

countryside do.Also, because of the heavy traffic the air

is polluted and cities are very noisy too. Another

disadvantage is the lack of greenery. All this means that

people living in the city could feel very stressed at times.

I think people who live in the countryside are probably

happier than people who live in cities because of the

beautiful surroundings. You can see the sky, hear the

birds singing in the trees and breathe fresh air. So in

many ways the quality of life in the countryside is much

higher than it is in the city. It is quiet and safe and it is a

nice place for children to grow up.

On the other hand though, life in the countryside does

have some difficulties. Even if you have a good job

people in the countryside aren’t as well paid as those in

the city. Also, you probably have to travel quite a long

way if you need to see a doctor or even do simple

things like shopping. People living in the countryside

could also feel quite isolated and lonely.There aren’t as

many places to go out and you have to have a car as the

public transport system isn’t very good.

Even though cities are noisy and polluted I still like living

in one because I’m very energetic and sociable. I

wouldn’t want a quiet life, really. Perhaps when I get

older and have a family of my own, I might prefer to live

somewhere peaceful, but at the moment I like the hustle

and bustle of city life.

Form 11A Speaking ex 1 p 114 (H/t 16.03.17)

Model Answer – Student A

The most important work zoos can do is to help

endangered species. All good zoos should establish

breeding programmes to help increase the numbers of

endangered species and prevent them from becoming

extinct. Some of the Chinese zoos have been very good

at this and have saved the Panda from extinction. But

there are many more animals that will disappear forever

if something isn’t done soon.

Another important aspect of zoos is the work they can

do to teach young people about wildlife and nature. I

think it is very important for young people to learn

about animals from a very young age. I’m pretty sure

that seeing wildlife in a zoo will inspire an interest in

nature and the environment in young people and

encourage them to want to protect endangered species

around the world.

Many people feel that keeping animals in zoos is cruel

because it is not their natural habitat and wild animals

should be able to roam free. It is probably true that

some zoos do not have suitable living spaces for the

animals and they live in cramped cages. But these days I

think most zoos are very well designed and the animals

live in good conditions. However, I think that any zoos

that are cruel to the animals should be closed down.

As far as I’m concerned zoos are fantastic places for

people to visit because they are both enjoyable and

educational. I find wildlife fascinating and going to the

zoo is the only way I would ever get to see some of the

animals. I also firmly believe that the work they do in

helping to protect animals is very important. Without

the research that zoos do we would not know as much

about wildlife and this would make it more difficult to

protect it. I think zoos are wonderful places.

Report structure. Структура доклада на английском языке

Секрет успешного написания хорошего доклада – работа по плану. Report имеет свою стандартную структуру, которую нужно взять за основу. Итак, в любом докладе должно быть 5 элементов:

Introduction (вступление). В этой секции нужно кратко описать предмет доклада, привести причины, почему вы занимаетесь именно этим вопросом, и сделать небольшой обзор других исследований по теме. Вступление – это презентация цели и предмета. Скажите читателю, что ему ожидать от работы. Здесь должно быть короткое, но меткое summary (резюме, краткое изложение основных идей), которое подогреет интерес читателя и заставит его сконцентрироваться на основном. В начале доклада можно воспользоваться такими фразами:

The aim/purpose of this report is to examine/evaluate/describe/outline the positive and negative features of two different phenomena… – Цель этого доклада – изучить/оценить/описать/выделить положительные и отрицательные черты двух разных явлений…
This report aims to provide an overall view of the situation below. – Цель этого доклада – дать полное представление о ситуации.
It will also include/consider/suggest/recommend… – Он также будет включать/рассматривать/предлагать/рекомендовать…
The report is based on a survey conducted among college students. – Этот доклад основан на опросе, проведенном среди студентов колледжа.
It is generally accepted that… – Общепринято, что…

Methods (методы исследования). Дайте ответы на такие вопросы: «Как проводилось исследование?», «Какие инструменты и приемы были использованы?».
Results (результаты). Здесь необходимо описать, что вы обнаружили в результате исследования, и написать, насколько результаты точны и с чем это связано.
Discussion (обсуждение) – обсуждение основных моментов, комментарии об эффективности исследования. Язык должен быть также сдержанным и убедительным. Полезные фразы:
- The vast majority of… – Подавляющее большинство…
- This is probably due to the fact that… – Вероятно, это происходит потому, что…
- One measure which may improve the situation would be to introduce… – Одной из мер, которые могут улучшить ситуацию, станет внедрение…
- I would recommend that the company (college) should…(do…) – Я рекомендую компании (колледжу)… (сделать…)
Conclusions (выводы). Последняя часть – подведение итогов и предложения для последующих исследований, касающихся темы доклада. Подвести итоги можно такими словами:
- In the light of the results of the survey, I strongly advise… – Ввиду результатов опроса я настоятельно советую…
- It appears that… – Оказалось, что…
- In conclusion / On balance / To sum up… – В заключение / В итоге…

В полноценном докладе также должен быть список использованной литературы. Могут присутствовать и другие части, это зависит от предмета и цели доклада. Соответственно, если мы имеем дело с кратким докладом, например, на международном экзамене, необходимо продемонстрировать не столько знание выбранной темы, сколько в целом понимание того, что такое доклад и из каких частей он состоит. Так, описанные выше части доклада на экзамене немного упрощаются, и выглядят так:

Introduction – вступление.
Reasons why you are writing (write about facts) – причины, побудившие вас писать об этом (сообщите факты).
Suggestions to solve a problem (a kind of discussion) – предложения и способы решения проблемы (аналог обсуждения).
Conclusion – выводы.

Задание для учащегося

Comment on the following statement.

My parents say the way they lived in the past was more secure. However, I believe that young people are given a lot more life opportunities nowadays.

What is your opinion? Which way of life will be more satisfying for future generations?

Write 200–250 words.

Use the following plan:

− make an introduction (state the problem)
− express your personal opinion and give 2–3 reasons for your opinion
− express an opposing opinion and give 1–2 reasons for this opposing opinion
− explain why you don’t agree with the opposing opinion
− make a conclusion restating your position

Пример письменного высказывания с элементами рассуждения («Ваше мнение»),выполненного учащимся и оцененного в 14 баллов
(3 – содержание, 3 –организация текста, 3 – лексика, 3 – грамматика, 2 – орфография и пунктуация)

A lot of people, especially of older age, claim that life in their youth was much quieter and they were more sure of tomorrow than young people nowadays. But there are many things I do appreciate today. Among them is a great variety of opportunities we have in life.

Firstly, the life has cardinally changed and at present young people, using Internet and traveling abroad, are more and more informed about the world and other cultures. Secondly, there is a wide choice of activities in which we can take part now, starting from leisure clubs up to political and volunteer programmes. Another thing to mention is a different range of job vacancies offered to young people to earn their own money. This gives us more independence from our family but, on the other hand, it teaches us to be responsible for decisions we make.

However, our society now faces some serious problems such as high crime rate, drug, game and smoking addictions, AIDS, poor environment, etc. They say the society was kinder, the tempo of life was slower. They were not afraid of unemployment. These are the reasons for the parents’ concern about our future. And though I share their worries, I would rather risk than have uneventful, monotonous, predictable life.

To sum up, I believe, modern life gives more opportunities and challenges to the youth. There is more freedom, life is more exciting. That is why I hold an opinion that the way of life of today is more satisfying.
