ЕГЭ по английскому языку. Сложный экзамен? Я бы ответил однозначно – сложный! Но, для целеустремленных учеников сдать его , набрав хорошие баллы, вполне реальная задача , каков бы не был уровень владения языком. Если у вас есть время и желание хорошо подготовиться к ЕГЭ или, что не менее важно, хорошо подготовить к ЕГЭ эти страницы для вас. Оговорюсь сразу, что вы не найдете здесь уникальной стратегии или методики подготовки. Самая лучшая стратегия всегда одна – труд. Зато найдете подробные инструкции по выполнению заданий с примерами, которые помогут вам готовиться системно и эффективно.

Итак, какова наша задача? Мы должны выполнить 15 заданий из раздела: «Аудирование», 9 заданий из раздела «Чтение», 20 заданий из раздела «Лексика и грамматика» и два задания из раздела «Письмо». На все про все у нас 180 минут. Что ж, приступим к раскладыванию по полочкам каждого раздела экзамена.

Раздел 1. «Аудирование»

Максимальное количество баллов, которые можно набрать – 20.

Задание В1. Понимание основного содержания текста.

Максимум 6 баллов.

Текст будет звучать дважды.

Суть задания : нужно установить соответствие между краткими утверждениями и текстами, предложенным для прослушивания. Утверждения обозначены цифрами 1-7. Высказывания говорящих буквами A-F. Одно утверждение лишнее.

Советы по эффективному выполнению задания.

До того, как текст прозвучит впервые дана пауза для ознакомления с заданиями. Мы делаем следующее:

Читаем утверждения и пытаемся определить что их объединяет. (тема, проблема, ключевое слово)
Пытаемся определить чем они отличаются друг от друга. (проблемой, отношением к проблеме и т. д.)
В процессе ознакомления с утверждениями подчеркиваем в них ключевые слова, делаем иные пометки, помогающие понять их смысл и различия.
Глядя на утверждения, пытаемся предвосхитить содержание текста, подходящего к каждому из них по смыслу, а также, те ключевые слова на которых, как нам кажется, должно строиться высказывание, относящееся к данному утверждению.

Итак, тексты зазвучали в первый раз. Во время первого прослушивания мы сосредоточимся на том, что нам необходимо:

По мере прослушивания каждого текста отмечать все возможные варианты ответа.
Делать нужные исправления в ответах по мере прослушивания остальных текстов, метод исключения же никто не отменял, и некоторые первоначальные варианты ответов вполне могут отпасть по мере дальнейшего прослушивания высказываний.

Тексты звучат второй раз. В это время нам нужно:

Обратить особое внимание на высказывания, для которых изначально было выбрано несколько вариантов ответа
Слушая текст, стараться выписывать ключевые слова, которые помогут обосновать выбор того или иного соответствия.

После того, как мы прослушали тексты дважды нам остается:

Записать окончательные ответы в таблицу, которая дана после задания.
Еще раз проверить точность записи ответов и перенести их в бланк.

Помните, что задания по аудированию нужно выполнять сразу же, не оставляя их невыполненными, так как, даже если у вас и будет время вернуться к их выполнению, вряд ли вы сможете вспомнить высказывания, которые прозвучали для вас час или полтора назад.

До прослушивания текста:

Тема, которая объединяет утверждения – подарки.
Утверждения отличаются друг от друга отношением к различным видам подарков.
Ключевые слова: 1) perfume, not a good present, reasons 2) present, create, memories 3) practical presents 4) present, good for everybody 5) perfume, the best present 6) present, a good way out, not always perfect 7) choosing a present, think, person’s lifestyle
1) скорее всего речь пойдет о причинах, по которым духи не могут быть хорошим подарком, ключевые слова на которых будет строиться высказывание: perfume, bad, not very good, awful, scent. 2) наверное, речь пойдет о каком-то совместном действии в качестве подарка, чтобы об этом остались воспоминания, ключевые слова: do together, memory, share, past 3) речь пойдет о практичных подарках, подарках для дома или хозяйства, ключевые слова: home, domestic, pragmatic,gifts 4) вероятно речь пойдет о подарке или подарках, которые подойдут любому человеку, ключевые слова any person(man), all, everybody 5) речь, видимо, пойдет о причинах, по которым духи являются наилучшим подарком по мнению говорящего, ключевые слова: excellent gift, best present, perfume 6) речь, скорее всего, пойдет о способе легко решить проблему с выбором подарка, ключевые слова: way out, easy to buy, choice 7) видимо говорящий будет убеждать, что при выборе подарка необходимо учитывать то, какой образ жизни ведет получатель этого подарка, ключевые слова: lifestyle, way of life, choose a gift

Во время первого прослушивания:

Отмечаем все возможные варианты: A) 6, 4 B) 3 C) 1,5 D) 6,4 E) 2 F) 7.

Во время второго прослушивания:

Обращаем особое внимание на высказывания, для которых мы выбрали несколько вариантов ответа и выбираем окончательный вариант: A) 4 B) 3 C) 1 D) 6 E) 2 F) 7.

После второго прослушивания переносим наши ответы в таблицу после задания, вот и все. Остается только перенести наши ответы в бланк ответов.

John: Tini, you’re a student, aren’t you?
Tini: Yeah, I am.
John: Do you like to study? Do you like your student life?
Tini: Of course. You know, I like studying although I’m not that much of a bookworm, like some of my friends who can’t imagine their lives without reading, but yes, Hike studying. I like spending time with my friends, and I just like my student life.
John: Now, soon, you’re going to graduate, correct?
Tini: Yes, fortunately or unfortunately, yes.
John: Well, why would you say fortunately?
Tini: Fortunately in the sense that, you know, it’s about time to get out into the real world and, you know, earn some money. But unfortunately in the sense that all of these precious memories, like you are putting them all behind.
John: Yeah, soon they are going to be over.
Tini: Right, and then you have more problems and responsibilities as soon as you step into the real world, which is understandable. I don’t mind this but no more spring vacation, no more summer vacation, this is tough.
John: Actually, that’s why I’m a teacher. People always ask me, why are you a teacher, John? And I say because of the time off. You get so much time off, and you don’t have to work a 9-5 schedule.
Tini: Yes, that is a very smart choice, I think.
John: Yeah, but you make no money.
Tini: Well, but you know you can be fresher and that’ll keep you young forever.
John: I don’t know about young forever but it does... you do feel energetic when you’re a teacher. I do agree. Well, you know, you can also become a teacher.
Tini: Well, actually, I’ve given it a bit of thought but right now I’m really into the banking industry.
John: Banking?
Tini: Yeah, the financial services industry, and then probably I might like to give it a go.
John: That’s going to be very stressful.
Tini: It is, but you know, I pretty much like the fast- paced lifestyle and I’m quite quick-thinking and well-organ- ised.
John: Good luck with banking then, you keep on with it.
Tini: Thank you. It’s going to be really tough, I know.

3) was the result of his work with sculptures.

А9 Chris assisted the photographer who

1) had the latest photographic equipment.

2) used to ask Chris challenging questions.

3) gave Chris valuable professional advice.

А10 According to Chris, working as an assistant is a good way into a career because you can

1) get a better understanding of the profession.

2) make friends with a lot of talented people.

3) learn the basic techniques of taking pictures.

А11 The reason for buying a plastic camera was that it

1) was not very expensive.

2) allowed him to take original pictures.

3) was light to carry around.

А12 Chris uses the phrase “That got the ball rolling” to say that

1) he became known in photography circles.

2) his art became more dance-oriented.

3) he started to sell his first photographs.

А13 Chris goes to the dance performances because

1) he wants to find the links between them and his work.

2) it is always interesting for him to be at the premiere.

3) the choreographer recommends him to see the piece.

А14 Chris thinks that dancers are great to work with because they

1) can work long hours.

2) can cope with any problem.

3) are lively and enthusiastic.

Presenter: Our guest today is Chris Nash who is widely recognized as one of the most creative photographers in his field. He has held over 40 exhibitions of his dance photographs worldwide and has worked with world renowned dance companies and choreographers. And my first question is: What inspired you to become a photographer?
Chris Nash: A kind of it came from an odd angle I was studying fine art at college and as part of the course we spent a week in the darkroom. I found it a bit like magic, watching the pictures develop. At the time, I was making a lot of big pieces of sculpture, and because I didn’t have anywhere to store them, I would have to take photographs of them and then destroy the sculptures. This was a bit heartbreaking really, so I took real pride in the images and gradually began to develop a greater interest in photography.
P.: Did you have any formal training?
C.N.: Not really. I spent more and more time in the darkroom. The tutors were the artists making work that was photographic-based. The darkroom technician at the college was great. He was a professional photographer and introduced me to John, the photographer I assisted when I left college. I wanted to do things, and John would tell me what I would need, what equipment, what books to read. I kind ot taught myself, but he was there to help with any questions I had. The best way of learning is doing.
P.: You just said you worked as an assistant; is this a good way into a career?
C.N.: Yes, absolutely! In fact I think it is the best way. When you see an photographer working on the job, you come to realize, get a clear idea of what photography is about. You have to deal with a lot of talented people: models, performers, make-up artists etc. All of them have their particular habits and eccentricities. You need to be able to draw the best out of them and to be really patient. Ideally when you are at college you are taught all the basic techniques, but when you
come out, there is a whole lot of other important stuff to learn.
P.: What was your first camera? Or the first photo you took?
C.N.: A really cheap plastic camera. I had that when I was twelve and then I bought a single lens camera when I got to college. Then I went back to a plastic camera. I saw this exhibition where a photographer had used a really cheap camera called a Diana. It had a cheap plastic lens on it, which made everything go fuzzy and dreamy. I wanted to get the same effect, so I went to a lot of markets, to try and pick up a second-hand camera. I had two which I would carry around with me.
P.: When did you become interested in dance?
C.N.: It was while I was studying in London. At that time the Dance Centre was attached to our college. So I met a lot of dance students and saw a bit of contemporary dance. I thought this would make a great subject for photography. So, I encouraged one of the dance students to go into the studio and let me take some photographs. I was fascinated by the results and sent the pictures into a competition and I won. I won 50 pounds worth of photographic materials. That got the ball rolling. This was about 1979.
P.: Do you go to dance performances of the people you photograph?
C.N.: Yes, but not very often. The way I work is a bit back-to-front. When I take pictures, it’s usually way in advance of the actual piece being created. Working with the dancers I can only imagine what the future performance will be like. And it is interesting to find out if the work I have done corresponds to the real play. So, sometimes I will go and see the premiere. It is important for me to see if the photographs make any sense and if the piece is how it was originally described to me.
P.: What do you enjoy most about your career?
C.N.: With the exhibitions I’ve done, I’ve got to do lots of travelling. I’ve had trips abroad on shoots, which can be a great thing. Also, I have really enjoyed working with dancers and working with creative people. Dancers always have a lot of energy and are always active. When you ask them to do things, all those little directions, they have absolutely no objections. When you work with other people who don’t have that physical training, it can be difficult to work in the same way. I love going to see dance performances, but it’s different when you work with dancers. It’s right there with you and it’s really exciting. That’s what I love.

Раздел 2. Чтение

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

1. Controlling skies 5. Blocked roads

2. Lack of safety 6. Paid roads

3. Bicycle is faster 7. Improving railways

4. Office at home 8. Buses instead of cars

A. The world’s first public passenger railway was built in Great Britain in 1826 and ran between the industrial north-eastern towns of Stockton and Darlington. After 180 years’ experience the British say that their trains still don’t seem to run efficiently or even safely. On average, about 500 accidents with broken rail tracks happen in the country every year.

B. The British government is promising to give £33.5 billion to modernise the railways before 2010. Another £30 billion is to come from the private sector. The main target is to increase safety and speed. For example, new London-to-Scotland high-speed trains significantly reduce journey times and in 2004 a warning system was installed throughout the country.

C. Statistics show that only 12% of all journeys made in Britain are by public transport. The remaining 88% are made by car. Every year British people spend about two weeks travelling to and from work including nine days in their own cars. But anyone will say this isn’t a quick and easy way to travel. In fact, a journey from London to Manchester frequently takes seven hours. A cyclist could get there quicker.

D. Every year there are about half a million traffic jams in Britain. That is nearly 10,000 a week. There are hundreds of big traffic jams every day. According to the forecast, the number of jams will grow by 20 per cent over the next ten years. Nearly a quarter British people find themselves in a jam every day and 55 per cent at least once a week.

E. Nowadays many British people take their children to school by car. Twenty years ago, nearly one in three primary school children made their own way to school. Now only one child in nine makes their own way. During the school year at 08:50 a. m. one car in five on the roads in any British town is taking children to school. The solution could be special school buses widely used in the USA.

F. Many scientists hope that new technologies allowing more people to work at home may help with traffic problems. Fewer people will work from 9 to 5 and travel to and from work during the rush hour. But only 15% of people now want to spend more time working at home. The workplace is, for many people, a place to meet other people and to talk to them, so they would miss it if they worked from home.
G. In 1903, the Wright brothers made the first aeroplane flight. It only lasted 12 seconds but changed the world forever. A century later, air travel is no longer a miracle, it is part of everyday life. One billion air passengers now fly every year - that’s equivalent to a sixth of the world’s population. To make sure everything runs smoothly, there are special air traffic control centres in each country which watch every aeroplane.

An old-established section of the Metropolitan police is the Mounted Branch,
with its strength of about 200 horses stabled at strategic points. These horses are particularly suited to ceremonial occasions, D __________________.
An interesting branch of Scotland Yard is the branch of Police Dogs, first used as an experiment in 1939. Now these dogs are an important part of the Force.
One dog, for example, can search a warehouse in ten minutes, E _________. There is also the River Police,
or Thames Division, which deals with all crimes occurring within its river boundaries.There are two other departments of Scotland Yard – the Witness Room (known as the Rogues’ Gallery) where a photographic record of known and suspected criminals is kept, and the Museum, F _________________.

The Courtship of Susan Bell

Mrs. Bell invited Aaron Houston, a famous British artist, to paint her younger daughter’s portrait. Aaron wanted to make a few drawings before he started a portrait. On the Thursday evening the drawing was finished. Not a word had been said because the girls were shy to speak in Aaron’s presence and he had gone on working in silence. “There,” said he, “I don’t think that it will be any better if I go on for another hour. I hope you will like it. There, Miss Susan”, and he sent it across the table with his fingers.

Susan’s face got red, she was embarrassed. She took the drawing and said, “Oh, it’s beautiful”. The superb originality of the drawing captivated her. A young girl was represented sitting at a table in a room filled with fresh air and the soft light of a summer day. The greenery of an old overgrown garden could be seen through the window. In front of her on the white tablecloth there was her book. The eyes of the girl looked out at you, dark grey, mysterious, sad, languorous, yet strangely intent. What was the girl thinking about? Who was the girl thinking about? The drawing was more than a portrait. It fact, the artist tackled a far bigger job than that of reproducing a definite person in portraiture and in performing which he imparted another and bigger content.
Susan’s face revealed her feelings. She turned to her mother and said, “Isn’t it beautifully done, mother?” and then her elder sister and her mother got up to look at it, and both admitted that it was beautifully done but Susan felt there was doubt in her mother’s voice.
“We thank you very much,” said Susan after a long pause.
“Oh, it’s nothing”, said he, not quite liking the word “we”.
On the following day he returned from his work to Saratoga about noon. He had never done this before, and therefore no one expected that he would be seen in the house before the evening. On this occasion, however, he went straight there, and by chance both the widow and her elder daughter were out. Susan was there alone in charge of the house.
He walked in and opened the sitting-room door. There she sat, with her knitting and a book forgotten on the table behind her, and Aaron’s drawing, on her lap. She was looking at it closely as he entered.
“Oh, Mr. Dunn,” she said, getting up and holding the picture behind her dress.
“Miss Susan, I have come here to tell your mother that I must start for New York this afternoon and be there for six weeks, or perhaps, longer.”
“Mother is out,” she said. “I am sorry.”
“Is she?” said Aaron.
“And Hetta too. Dear me! And you will want dinner. I’ll go and see about it.”
Aaron began to swear that he could not possibly eat any dinner.
“But you must have something, Mr. Dunn“ she said.
“Miss Susan,” said he, “I’ve been here nearly two months.”
“Yes, sir,” Susan said, hardly knowing what she was saying.
“I’m going away now, and it seems to be such a long time before I’ll come back.” And then he paused, looking into her eyes, to see what he could read there. She leant against the table; but her eyes were turned to the ground, and he could hardly see them.
“Will you help me?” he said. She was keeping silent. “Miss Susan,” he continued, “I am not very good at saying things like this, but will you marry me? I love you dearly with all my heart. I never saw anyone so beautiful, so nice, so good.” And then he stopped. He didn’t ask for any love in return. He simply declared his feelings, leaning against the door. Susan remained silent. Aaron ran out of the room. A15 The girls kept silent because they
1)didn’t like to speak to Aaron.
2)didn’t know what to say to Aaron.
3)were afraid to speak in their mother’s presence.
4)were too modest to speak in the guest’s presence.A16 It was a remarkable drawing as it managed to reflect
1)some hidden philosophical idea.
2)The light of a summer day.
3)The peculiarity of the environment.
4)all the nuances of the girl’s features

A17 When Susan’s mother saw the drawing, she
1)remained indifferent.
2)showed her disapproval.
3)she wasn’t sure how to react.
4)shared her daughter’s admiration.A18 The phrase “not quite liking the word “we” means that the painter
1)wanted Susan’s sister to admire his work.
2)wanted the mother to thank him personally.
3)expected all the present ladies to say something.
4)was mainly concerned about the girl’s approval.A19 What was unusual about Aaron’s visit on the following day? He came
1)later than usual.
2)earlier than usual.
3)straight from Saragota.
4)without prior arrangement.

A20 Susan was alone at home
1)by pure chance.
2)because Aaron had arranged it.
3)regularly at this time of the day.
4)because she expected Aaron to come

A21 When Aaron asked Susan to marry him he
1)was sure that she loved him.
2)just wanted to open his heart to her.
3)wanted to make sure that she loved him.
4)expected her to go with him to New York

Speaker A : We’ve had our dog, Fido, for two years now. My parents asked me which animal I’d like, and I said a dog. A dog was a good choice for us because we’ve got a big house and a fenced-in garden where he can play, and we all take turns walking him. Dogs need space and exercise. People who’ve got a small flat and not a lot of free time to spend with their pet should probably get a fish instead!

Speaker B : Our cats, Leo, Tabs and Boo, certainly keep us entertained round the house. They love to play and sleep and they certainly perk up at mealtimes. But they have their own characters. Leo is super friendly and loves to sit on your lap. Tabs always runs away when you try to pick her up. And Boo is unpredictable – sometimes he loves you, and sometimes he doesn’t! I guess they’re like people in a way – no two are alike!

Speaker С : I love having an aquarium. I’ve got two fish in it now. They don’t really have personalities, you know, although they get excited when I toss flakes of food in their tank. I started off with just one fish, then after six months, I decided it would be fun to get a second one, and they seem very happy together. They’re easy to look after – just give them some food and watch them swim!

Speaker D : We’ve got a really cool parrot named Polly. Polly’s a great character, and she talks! What better pet could you have, right? Sadly, though, Polly wasn’t feeling well a few weeks ago. She stopped eating and wasn’t talking so much. Everyone who owns a pet must look after it, so we had to take her to a vet, who prescribed some medicine. She’s much improved now and back to her usual chatty self!

Speaker E : Our local pet shop has got lots of different pets – rabbits and hamsters, birds and fish. I’m always tempted to buy another pet, but I know I mustn’t! But every time I go there, I pick up something for my dog, Gus. He loves having a new toy to chew on or chase round the house. I think about myself, you know. I love video games, but I can’t play the same one over and over again!

Speaker F : When we were thinking of getting a pet, we had to consider where we would get one. The pet shop near my house has lots to choose from. But I get so sad when I think about all those animals that are out on the streets. So my parents and I decided that we would visit the city shelter and rescue a pet from there. And that’s how we got our dog Chester, who’s more than happy to live with us!

Vicky : That’ll be hilarious, Jason! I wasn’t sure if I was going to come, but I think you’ve helped me make up my mind. But I don’t know what to wear. I was thinking maybe a princess, but that seems a bit boring.

Jason : No, that sounds great. If you came as a princess, you would wear loads of jewellery and a huge crown, right?

Vicky : Hmm, I’m not keen on that idea, really. Where would I get all those things? I don’t want to spend a thousand pounds on an outfit.

Jason : That’s a good point. Well, what about a celebrity? Maybe you could come as Lady Gaga. That should be easy to do, shouldn’t it? Just copy one of her looks.

Vicky : No, I can’t do that. Lisa’s already going as Gaga. Besides, I think I’m way too tall to be her. She’d only come up to my chin if she were standing in front of me!

Jason : What about a mermaid? You know, dress up like a fish! I think you’d look really good in that kind of outfit, and it can’t be that expensive, can it?

Vicky : That sounds interesting, but how would I get round the party without falling over? It would be quite difficult to walk!

Jason : Hmm, maybe you could wear a long green skirt and ask your mum to sew a fish tail on the bottom.

Vicky : How creative! I’ve also got a funky green blouse and I can put some fake seashells all over it. I think we’re getting somewhere with this idea! Of course, I’ve got an exam in three days, so I can’t spend all my time making a mermaid costume.

Jason : Hopefully it won’t take too long to make.
The party’s this weekend and today’s Monday. That’s plenty of time, don’t you think?

Vicky : Well, my exams in maths, which I’m terrible at. I think I’ll have to wait until it’s over before I can do this costume. But at least I’ve got the idea.

Jason : Well, good luck in your exam, and with the costume!

Vicky : Thanks. See you at the party Jason!

Presenter : Hi everyone and welcome to our programme, Awesome Job! Today we have John Stone with us to talk about his work in ecotourism. John, welcome to the show.

Speaker : Thanks for having me.

Presenter : Tell us some things about your job and what your company does.

Speaker : I work as a tour guide for a company called Go Green Tourism. We specialise in tours to unique habitats with rich biodiversity. We organise very small tours, for maybe 20 people or less, so that the environment remains protected, and our destinations are mainly tropical regions in South America and most recently South-East Asia. We travel to our destination and stay at a local village near the habitat, which is where we eat and sleep. Then we go on a guided walking tour of a rainforest and we educate our travelling companions about the different flora and fauna of the area.

Presenter : So you have to be well-trained in plant and animal sciences to give one of these tours, yes?

Speaker : That’s right. Typically the tour guides have a degree in biology or botany, or a master’s in forest conservation, something like that. My specific educational background is in zoo management, but I saw an advert for this job and decided I wanted to give it a try. I’ve learned a great deal more about the natural environment through this work, which I’m happy about.

Presenter : Is ecotourism safe for the environment, in your opinion?

Speaker : We do our very best to ensure that any place we visit is left virtually untouched. Our ecotravellers must attend a seminar before we embark on our journey in order to learn the dos and don’ts of the trip. People who sign up for these tours are quite conscious of the environment to begin with.

Presenter : Does your company participate in environment protection programmes?

Speaker : I’m glad you asked that, because yes, we do. Part of our profits go to awareness programmes aimed at educating people about the rainforests and their value as a resource. Most people don’t realise that without rainforests, we wouldn’t be able to survive.

Presenter : There is also the problem of rainforests being cut down, isn’t there?

Speaker : Yes, we also provide funds for organisations that fight illegal logging and land clearing in Brazil. These organisations work with the Brazilian government and although it’s a continuous battle, they have made progress in recent years in protecting land.

Presenter : That’s good to know. What sorts of things do people get to see in the rainforests, besides plants and animals of course?

Speaker : Oh, many things. We visit dazzling waterfalls, and pristine lakes and rivers. We also visit the native peoples who live in or near the rainforests – the ones who are welcoming to visitors anyway! So there is also a cultural exchange that takes place between the ecotravellers and the locals. I’ve even picked up a few words of the locals’ languages, which is really cool. Of course, I’m a long way off being fluent!

Presenter : And do you just visit rainforests?

Speaker : Well, the company is only about eight years old, so the focus has been rainforest regions mainly in Brazil, but as I said before, we do visit South-East Asia, which we started doing a couple of years ago. But I’m excited to say that we are planning to expand our operations to regions in Africa, such as the Serengeti and Madagascar. Business has been booming for ecotourism, so hopefully that trend will continue, for us and for other environmentally-conscious organisations…
