Всем привет!

На носу, как говорится, главное испытание по любимому предмету. О чем это я? Да о ЕГЭ по английскому, конечно же! Вот некоторые уже отстрелялись 8 апреля, сдав ЕГЭ (его?) досрочно. Давайте разберем с вами задания Устной части досрочного ЕГЭ по английскому языку 2016 г, которые были опубликованы на сайте fipi.ru

Task 1.

Imagine that you are preparing a project with your friend. You have found some interesting material for the presentation and you want to read this text 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.

People have enjoyed sports for thousands of years. Children, men and women play sports both for pleasure and for challenge. Every sport involves physical skill. Every sport has a set of rules that the players of the sport follow. In some sports one person competes against other individuals. Examples of these sports include boxing, tennis and so on. In many games one team competes against the other team.

People can go in for winter and summer sports. Summer sports are typical for warmer countries. Those who live in regions that experience cold winters have long enjoyed ice skating, skiing, and sledding. These activities have grown immensely in popularity over the years. Today thousands of resorts cater to the winter tourist trade, and millions of people each year take winter sports vacations.

Task 3.

Imagine that these are photos from your photo album. Choose one photo to present to your friend. You will have to start speaking in 1.5 minutes and will speak for not more than 2 minutes (12–15 sentences). In your talk remember to speak about:

1. where and when the photo was taken
2. what/who is in the photo
3. what is happening
4. why you keep the photo in your album
5. why you decided to show the picture to your friend

You have to talk continuously, starting with: “I’ve chosen photo number …”

Photo 1 Photo 2 Photo3

I"ve chosen photo number 2. (Обязательно начните ответ с этой фразы, предварительно выбрав номер фотографии).

First of all, I should admit that winter is my favourite season and I try to spend a lot of time outdoors when the weather is not very frosty and cold. So, this picture was taken on a wonderful winter day in the local park . I usually go there with my friends at weekends.

Can you guess who is in the photo? Right, in the foreground of the picture you can see my best friends Dasha and Nastya. They are having fun playing snowballs . They are both in a good mood and laughing. In spite of the fact that it is winter, they are wearing light clothes. Nastya is wearing a red tracksuit and a hat that her granny has knitted for her. Dasha prefers to wear jeans wherever she goes. Also, she’s got a trendy white hat.

The ground is covered with plenty of fresh snow. In the background of the picture you can see bare trees which, I hope, don’t spoil the view.

You know, I keep this photo in my album because we are school-leavers and soon we’ll go to study in different towns that’s why I try to capture the best moments we spend together which will remind me of our friendship and school years.

I decided to show this picture to you because I want you to learn how cute my friends are and to tell you how much I will miss them after leaving school (how much they mean for me).

That’s all I wanted to say. (фраза для экзаменатора )

Task 4.

Study the two photographs. In 1.5 minutes be ready to compare and contrast the photographs:

1. give a brief description of the photos (action, location)

1. say what the pictures have in common

1. say in what way the pictures are different

1. say which of the ways of taking care of your health presented in the pictures you’d prefer

1. explain why

You will speak for not more than 2 minutes (12–15 sentences). You have to talk continuously.

Now I will compare and contrast these two photos.

I’d like to stress out right from the beginning that lots of young people nowadays are concerned about healthy lifestyle. And these two photos prove that. (вступительная фраза)

So, the theme which relates these photos is the way people take care of their health.

Let me start with the first picture which shows young people who are doing some exercises in the gym at the moment. They are walking on the treadmills. There is a screen in front of each person. I think it might be very convenient to watch the records of your walking speed, pulse and number of loosing calories. It seems to me that they are having their training in the evening when their working day is over.

As for the second picture you can see a young girl jogging in the city park. She is wearing a nice coral T-shirt and dark sports trousers. I guess the action is taking place in a warm summer morning because you can see bright spells of the sun on the emerald green grass and trees. The girl is very slender and looks very happy.

As I’ve already mentioned both pictures depict young people who are taking up sports to be in a good shape (to feel strong and healthy). And this is the main similarity between them. Also both pictures show us cheerful people who really enjoy doing sports (who are doing sports with pleasure).

Ответ:

Установите соответствие между текстами A-G и заголовками 1-8 . Запишите свои ответы в таблицу. Используйте каждую цифру только один раз. В задании один заголовок лишний.

1. Reasons to be afraid

2. Fight your fear

3. A place of wonders

4. How to say thank you

5. Visiting for wild life and animals

6. Learn to be grateful

7. It’s never late to learn

8. Reading non-verbal language

A. Nowadays when it’s all too easy to send an email or text, the best way to show that you are grateful to somebody is to actually mail a hand-written card. The person who gets it will know you took the extra time and thought to write a card and put it in the mail with a nice stamp. That person will appreciate your efforts much more. Plus, you’ll get the added bonus of feeling grateful a little longer than usual as you write out each note and wait for it to arrive.

B. Music is a noble passion, and people who can play a musical instrument have always been seen as intelligent people. Learning how to play a musical instrument is far more efficient if you do it in childhood. However, there are millions of adults who learn to enjoy music throughout their lives. Moreover, they don’t focus on just one instrument, but specialize in two or even more, if they have the time and the necessary ambition.

C. Millions of people avoid air travel each year because of their fear of flying. The fear of accidents happening is probably the most common fear among air travellers. It is an understandable fear, since there have been many aviation accidents throughout history. Some people may have a fear that the plane has some type of malfunction or breakdown, while others may have a fear that the weather or turbulance will affect the plane.

D. Try to understand that being scared is just an illusion that makes you limited and miserable. Take control of your mind and don’t let your imagination create frightening pictures in your head. If you cannot deal with it, you should make attempts to leave your comfort zone. Choose things and activities you are afraid of and meet your worries face to face, because it is impossible to run away from them. Just face your troubles no matter how powerful they may seem.

E. When you get chronically bored with something, your mind gets used to seeing the world negatively. It is necessary to break the chain of negative thoughts and train your mind to notice the best. Just write down 5 things you are thankful for. This way, your mind will change for the better in a while. The thankfulness will open your eyes to the beauty of the world around you and will help you to focus on positive moments in your life.

F. If you go to Ireland, go to isolated distant places in the country, talk to the locals and they will tell you the stories about the mythical Irish place, called the Otherworld. They believe that it is the land of paradise and happiness. In Irish poetry and tales, it is described as a series of islands near Ireland where the various fairytale creatures lived. Also the Otherworld seemed to be able to move from one location to another.

G. Many people can understand the nature of character without talking to the person they are interested in. The gestures and postures usually reflect the mood and the level of the person’s confidence. It’s easy to notice a highly confident person even in a big group of people. They stand in one place without constant moving from place to place, and they always make eye contact with the person they are talking to.

Peter and Paul Fortress

The Peter and Paul Fortress in St. Petersburg, located on small Hare Island, is the historic core of the city. The history of St. Petersburg begins with the history of the fortress.

Since 1700 Russia had been fighting the Northern War against Sweden. By 1703 the lands by the Neva River were conquered. To protect them from the attacks of the Swedes it was necessary to build a strong outpost here. The fortress was founded on Hare Island 16 (27) May, 1703 by joint plan of Peter I and French engineer Joseph-Gaspard Lambert de Guerin. This day is well known A_______________________.

The fortress stretches from west to east with six bastions B_______________________. The Peter’s Gate on the east side, C_____________________, has remained since the time of Peter I. The Peter and Paul Cathedral, D_______________________ emperors and the monument of Russian baroque, was completed after the death of the emperor, in 1733. The weathervane as a golden angel with a cross, E_______________________, is one of the main symbols of the city. On the opposite side of the cathedral, there is the Mint building, constructed in the time of Paul I by architect A. Porto. Coinage was moved to the fortress F_______________________ in the time of Peter I. The Peter and Paul Fortress has never directly participated in any fighting. From the very beginning of its existence it was used as a political prison. Since 1924 the Peter and Paul Fortress has been a part of the Museum of the History of St. Petersburg.

3. which was the burial place of Russian

4. and reminding of the rich history of the city

5. as the most protected part of the city

6. which is located on the spire of the cathedral

7. that are located at the corners

Ответ:

At the beginning of the article the author reminds that the new media technologies …

1) turn our attention off morals.

2) used to frighten the majority of people.

3) improve human brainpower.

4) could make people less intelligent.

Mind over mass media

Ответ:

What has life proved about electronic technologies according to the author?

1) Scientists can’t do without them.

2) They could increase the crime level.

3) They don’t disrupt brainwork.

4) Television influences intelligence.

Mind over mass media

New forms of media have always caused moral panic: the printing press, newspapers, and television were all once denounced as threats to their consumers’ brainpower and moral fiber. So too with electronic technologies. PowerPoint, we’re told, is reducing discourse to bullet points. Search engines lower our intelligence, encouraging us to skim on the surface of knowledge rather than dive to its depths. Twitter is shrinking our attention spans.

But such panic often fails basic reality checks. When comic books were accused of turning juveniles into criminals in the 1950s, crime was falling to record lows. The decades of television, transistor radios and rock videos were also decades in which I.Q. scores rose continuously.

For a reality check today, take the state of science, which demands high levels of brainwork. These days scientists are never far from their e-mail, rarely touch paper and cannot lecture without PowerPoint. If electronic media were hazardous to intelligence, the quality of science would be plummeting. Yet discoveries are multiplying like fruit flies, and progress is dizzying.

Critics of new media sometimes use science itself to press their case, citing research that shows how “experience can change the brain”. But cognitive neuroscientists roll their eyes at such talk. Experience does not remake the basic information-processing capacities of the brain. Speed-reading programs have long claimed to do just that, but the verdict was rendered by Woody Allen after he read “War and Peace” in one sitting: “It was about Russia.”

Moreover, the effects of experience are highly specific to the experiences themselves. If you train people to do one thing, they get better at doing that thing, but almost nothing else. Music doesn’t make you better at math. Accomplished people immerse themselves in their fields. Novelists read lots of novels, scientists read lots of science.

The effects of consuming electronic media are also likely to be far more limited than the panic implies. Media critics write as if the brain takes on the qualities of whatever it consumes, the informational equivalent of “you are what you eat”. As with primitive peoples who believe that eating fierce animals will make them fierce, they assume that reading Twitter postings turns your thoughts into Twitter postings.

Yes, the continual arrival of information packets can be distracting or addictive. But distraction is not a new phenomenon. The solution is to develop strategies of self-control. Turn off Twitter when you work and put away your smartphone at dinner time.

And to encourage intellectual depth, don’t rail at PowerPoint or Google. It’s not as if habits of deep reflection or thorough research ever came naturally to people. They must be acquired in universities, and maintained with constant analysis, criticism and debate. They are not granted by propping a heavy encyclopedia on your lap, nor are they taken away by efficient access to information on the Internet.

The new media have caught on for a reason. Knowledge is increasing exponentially; human brainpower and waking hours are not. Fortunately, the Internet and information technologies are helping us manage and search our collective intellectual output at different scales, from Twitter to e-books and online encyclopedias. Far from making us stupid, these technologies are the only things that will keep us smart.

Ответ:

What does the example of Woody Allen’s reading of “War and Peace” illustrate?

1) Scientific research of brain supports critics of new media.

2) Technology hardly influences the way brain deals with information.

3) Experience with technology is significant for intellectual abilities.

4) Speed-reading programs improve information-processing.

Speed-reading programs have long claimed to do just that, but the verdict was rendered by Woody Allen after he read “War and Peace” in one sitting: “It was about Russia.”

Moreover, the effects of experience are highly specific to the experiences themselves. If you train people to do one thing, they get better at doing that thing, but almost nothing else. Music doesn’t make you better at math. Accomplished people immerse themselves in their fields. Novelists read lots of novels, scientists read lots of science.

The effects of consuming electronic media are also likely to be far more limited than the panic implies. Media critics write as if the brain takes on the qualities of whatever it consumes, the informational equivalent of “you are what you eat”. As with primitive peoples who believe that eating fierce animals will make them fierce, they assume that reading Twitter postings turns your thoughts into Twitter postings.

Yes, the continual arrival of information packets can be distracting or addictive. But distraction is not a new phenomenon. The solution is to develop strategies of self-control. Turn off Twitter when you work and put away your smartphone at dinner time.

And to encourage intellectual depth, don’t rail at PowerPoint or Google. It’s not as if habits of deep reflection or thorough research ever came naturally to people. They must be acquired in universities, and maintained with constant analysis, criticism and debate. They are not granted by propping a heavy encyclopedia on your lap, nor are they taken away by efficient access to information on the Internet.

The new media have caught on for a reason. Knowledge is increasing exponentially; human brainpower and waking hours are not. Fortunately, the Internet and information technologies are helping us manage and search our collective intellectual output at different scales, from Twitter to e-books and online encyclopedias. Far from making us stupid, these technologies are the only things that will keep us smart.

Mind over mass media

New forms of media have always caused moral panic: the printing press, newspapers, and television were all once denounced as threats to their consumers’ brainpower and moral fiber. So too with electronic technologies. PowerPoint, we’re told, is reducing discourse to bullet points. Search engines lower our intelligence, encouraging us to skim on the surface of knowledge rather than dive to its depths. Twitter is shrinking our attention spans.

But such panic often fails basic reality checks. When comic books were accused of turning juveniles into criminals in the 1950s, crime was falling to record lows. The decades of television, transistor radios and rock videos were also decades in which I.Q. scores rose continuously.

For a reality check today, take the state of science, which demands high levels of brainwork. These days scientists are never far from their e-mail, rarely touch paper and cannot lecture without PowerPoint. If electronic media were hazardous to intelligence, the quality of science would be plummeting. Yet discoveries are multiplying like fruit flies, and progress is dizzying.

It is common knowledge that tourists visiting Moscow understand what Russia is. However, some people have a different vision of situation and sure that to know Russia well you should visit only Moscow. To my mind, I am certain that Russia is a very large country with a lot of history and culture around all country and it would be difficult to understand them visiting only Moscow.

Пс: а ещё у меня на устной части вылетела программа, пришлось ждать технического специалиста, тоже спокойствия не добавило

готовилась всегда хорошо, а сейчас я просто в шоке! аудирование выбило из колеи, некоторых слов не разобрать, речь тихая (некоторые задания вызвали сомнения в выборе ответа. Желаю нам хороших результатов!

Видимо, как на устной части, у всех опять один и тот же вариант

Рассчитывала на 90+, теперь понимаю, что опять пролетела. нечестно это. вот эти темы-то явно не школьного уровня.
