Speaking Part

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.

The first maps were drawn by explorers to help them find their way home and show people where they had been. The maps showed the shape of the land, distances between places and special features such as caves and old trees. Nowadays, maps show the towns and villages, and the roads, railways, rivers and mountains. Symbols are used to show all the different things on a map and there is a key to explain what the symbols stand for.

Over the centuries, people explored most of the Earth and put together the map of the world we use today. Maps of the world or large areas are often either “political” or “physical”. The political map shows territorial borders. The purpose of the physical map is to show features of geography such as mountains, soil type or land use including roads, railroads and buildings.

Enjoy watching!

Sample answer

I’ve chosen photo number 1. (Обязательно начните свой ответ с этой фразы, предварительно выбрав номер фотографии.)

Well, recently I have decided to start a blog about a healthy lifestyle. I write short stories about healthy food. Also, I often take pictures of my friends and relatives to show to my followers (readers) which exercises they do to keep fit. (вступление) 3

So , this picture was taken a week ago when my sister and I went jogging in our park near the river. 1

In the foreground of the photo you can see my elder sister Stacy. She is running in the park at the moment. The morning is sunny and quite warm, so Stacy is wearing a nice T-shirt. (I should say that coral is her favourite colour.) She looks pretty slim because she does her regular exercises and keeps on a healthy diet (maintains a balanced diet). She says it always helps her to be in a good mood and shape. (6)

In the background of the picture there are lots of green trees. The air is usually fresh in the morning. And I think it’s the best time for doing sports. (3)

I keep this photo in my album because I am going to use it on my blog. (1)

I know that you are trying to lose some weight. So, I show you the photo of my sister to encourage you to take up jogging. Also, to gain the best results, you can follow her eating habits advice. (3)

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:

  • give a brief description of the photos (action, location)
  • say what the pictures have in common
  • say in what way the pictures are different
  • say which of the ways of reading a book presented in the pictures you’d prefer
  • explain why

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


Sample answer

Now I will compare and contrast these two photos.

I’d like to stress out right from the beginning that such hobby as reading gives you an excellent opportunity to learn new things wherever you are: at home, on the bus, at the sunny beach and even in the queue (in the line). And these two photos prove that. (вступительная фраза ) (2)

So, the theme which relates these photos is a reading activity . (1)

Let me start with the first picture which shows a young girl who is sitting on the sofa.She might be in her flat at the moment. She is absorbed in reading. I cannot say for sure but it seems to me she is holding an e-book in her hands. (4)

Уровни сложности заданий в устной части: базовый для первых трех и высокий для последнего.

Общее время выполнения устной части работы — 15 мин.

Советы по подготовке к каждому из устных заданий на ЕГЭ.

Устная часть ЕГЭ имеет компьютеризированную форму, поэтому вы никак не сможете повлиять на время. Вам дадут ровно столько, сколько определено лимитом программы, поэтому, даже если вы готовы говорить много и долго, придется говорить исключительно по существу. Во время ответа у вас также не будет возможность делать письменные пометки – речь должна быть спонтанная.

Обязательно – в конце экзамена полностью прослушайте свой ответ. Если по какой-то технической причине весь ответ или его часть не записалась, вы сможете пересдать устную часть ЕГЭ.

Обязательно – ознакомьтесь с интерфейсом программы для устной части экзамена. Сделать это можно здесь — http://injaz.ege.edu.ru/ . Потренируйтесь, научитесь контролировать время устной речи.

ЗАДАНИЕ 41 — ЧТЕНИЕ ТЕКСТА ВСЛУХ

У вас будет 1.5 минуты на подготовку и ровно столько же на чтение текстов. Не волнуйтесь, этого времени вам будет достаточно. Ниже в статье даны примерные тексты для чтения на устной части ЕГЭ.

Старайтесь правильно произносить все слова, а также обязательно соблюдайте интонацию. Во время подготовки посмотрите, есть ли в тексте вопросительные или восклицательные знаки. Делайте паузы на запятых и точках.

Выделяйте интонацией важные слова, несущие больше смысла.

Не волнуйтесь, если во время чтения допустили ошибку в произношении. Для того, чтобы получить 1 балл (максимум) за это задание, нужно допустить не более 5 фонетических ошибок, при этом не более 2 грубых. К грубым ошибкам относятся такие ошибки, которые препятствуют пониманию слова.

ЗАДАНИЕ 42 — УСЛОВНЫЙ ДИАЛОГ-РАССПРОС

В данном задании вам необходимо будет реагировать на происходящее, задавать вопросы. Да, да! Здесь важно уметь задавать вопросы. Поэтому обязательно повторите все типы вопросов , а особенно специальные вопросы , так как в основном, вы будете задавать именно их. Нужно будет задать 5 вопросов, каждый из которых будет оценен в 1 балл. Для того, чтобы получить этот балл вам нужно грамматически правильно составить вопрос.

Не стремитесь сделать вопрос богатым в лексическом отношении – дополнительно это оценено не будет. Не мудрите – делайте все просто и уверенно. Вполне допустимо использовать однотипные вопросы.

Помните, что человек, который проверяет ваши вопросы, будет проверять последний из них. Поэтому, если вы допустили ошибку, можете еще раз задать вопрос, исправив ее.

ЗАДАНИЕ 3 — ТЕМАТИЧЕСКОЕ МОНОЛОГИЧЕСКОЕ ВЫСКАЗЫВАНИЕ

Вам необходимо будет выбрать одну из трех личных фотографий и описать ее по предложенному плану. На подготовку дается 1.5 минуты, ответ должен состоять из 12 – 15 предложений и занимать не более 2 минут.

Что важно для получения максимального количества баллов?

  • 1 – решить коммуникативную задачу (то есть рассказать то, что требуется в плане). Если вы не решите коммуникативную задачу, то как бы прекрасно вы не говорили – все равно получите 0 баллов за это задание ЕГЭ.
  • 2 – использовать не менее 12 фраз (за это дается 3 балла)
  • 3 – обязательно сделать вступление и заключение (2 балла)
  • 4 – допустить минимум ошибок (2 балла)

Старайтесь строго следовать предложенному вам плану.

Ответ следует начинать с фразы I’ve chosen photo number..., как это будет указано в задании, но эта фраза не будет считаться вступительной.

Примеры вступительных фраз:

  • I’d like to show you a picture from my photo album.
  • Would you like to have a look at this picture?

Примеры заключительных фраз:

  • I hope you liked my picture.
  • I guess that’s all I can tell you about this photo.

В какой-то степени подготовится можно и дома. Продумайте, как рассказать где и когда был сделан снимок, почему вы решили сделать снимок, почему вы решили показать именно это фото.

В рассказе о фотоснимке вам не обойтись без употребления выражений there is / there are – поэтому обязательно повторите данное правило.

Также повторите время Present Continuous, едва ли вы обойдетесь без его использования.

Пользуйтесь фразами:

  • the picture,
  • in the background
  • in the foreground,
  • to the left/right,
  • in the center,
  • to take a picture

ОБЯЗАТЕЛЬНО ИСПОЛЬЗУЙТЕ СИНОНИМЫ СЛОВА PICTURE (SHOT, PHOTO, PHOTOGRAPH).

ЗАДАНИЕ 4 — ТЕМАТИЧЕСКОЕ МОНОЛОГИЧЕСКОЕ ВЫСКАЗЫВАНИЕ

При выполнении данного задания вам необходимо будет сравнить 2 фотографии (картинки) по предложенному плану. На фотографиях будут изображены 2 способа одного и того же. На подготовку у вас будет 1.5 минут и 2 минуты на ответ.

Задание оценивается точно так же, как и предыдущее:

  • Использование не менее 12 фраз – 3 балла
  • Есть вступление и заключение – 2 балла
  • Мало или нет ошибок – 2 балла

Если коммуникативная задача не решена (вы не сравнили картинки по плану), то получаете 0 баллов.

Примеры вступительных фраз.

  • I’d like to compare and contrast these two pictures for you.
  • Let me talk about these two pictures for you., etc.

Примеры заключительных фраз:

  • That’s all I wanted to tell you about these two pictures.

  • I’d personally prefer shopping online, etc.

Примеры текстов для чтения — ЗАДАНИЕ 41.

Geography is the study of the Earth and its features, its inhabitants, and its phenomena. The word geography comes from Greek. It means “to write and draw about the Earth”. Geography studies continents, seas, rivers and mountains. It deals with all the people and animals that live on the Earth. It is interested in the things that happen on the Earth like tides, winds, and earthquakes. A person who is an expert in geography is a geographer. A geographer tries to understand the world and the things that are in it, how they started and how they have changed. Geographers need to know a lot about maps because maps are very important for understanding geography.

Geography is divided into two main parts called physical geography and human geography. Physical geography studies the natural environment and human geography studies the human environment. Human geography studies include things such as the population in a country, a country’s economy and so on.

Astronomy is the study of the universe and everything in it. This includes stars, planets and galaxies as well as other things. The word astronomy comes from two Greek words. The first means star and the second means slaw. A person who studies astronomy is called an astronomer.

Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences. Ancient people used the positions of the stars to navigate, and to find when was the best time to plant crops. Astronomy is very similar to astrophysics. Since the 20th century there have been two main types of astronomy, observational and theoretical astronomy. Observational astronomy uses telescopes and cameras to look at stars, galaxies and other astronomical objects. Theoretical astronomy uses maths and computer models to predict what should happen. The two often work together, the theoretical predicts what should happen and the observational shows whether the prediction works

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.

Many lands that had once been swamps were drained or filled in. There are different reasons why people drained swamplands. Some were drained to fight diseases caused by insects that lived in them. Because swamps were considered unpleasant places in which to live and harmful to health, many people thought that unless they were drained the land was worthless.

Other swamps were drained to make new land. As the population grew and more land was needed, people drained swamps or filled them to make room for more farms and factories, more roads and airports.

Few people thought that it might be harmful to get rid of swamps. As swamps disappeared, other things happened. There were both more floods and more droughts than before. There were also more fires, for swamps had acted as firebreaks. Hunters noticed that there was less wild game. Wild life that once lived in the swamps was dying out, because it had no place to live.

I have chosen photo number 1.
To begin with, people keep pets for different reasons. They make our lives more exciting and become the members of our family. They can also be our closest friends forever.

I took this photo last summer in our country house. We have got several pets and this dog is among them. All our pets are friendly and cute creatures.
Let me tell you a few words about this photo. In the background you can see a wonderful Russian landscape. In the foreground there is a wonderful lawn framed with lovely birches and bushes. In the centre you can see my elder sister Sveta and our dog Snowflake. We called him so because he is as white and fluffy as snow.
The weather is fine, sunny and warm. Snowflake likes to go for a walk very much. In the photo Sveta is telling him something to keep him calm. You can’t see me as I am taking the photo.
Taking this photo I wanted to start a collection of our pets’ pictures and to display it on the wall in our living room. Besides, the photos will always remind us of our pets.
I decided to show this picture to you because you told me a lot about your dog. Now it’s my turn to give you the first impression of my pet. Isn’t he friendly and cute?

In our modern world some jobs are very important for our society.
Here are two pictures to compare and contrast on the topic. This is a photo of a man doing his job outside and that is a photo of a policeman standing on the side of the road.
These two pictures show jobs and this is the first similarity. The people in both pictures are wearing uniforms , and that is also what these pictures have in common. The weather is rather warm.
However, pictures are somehow different. The main difference is that in picture one we can see a worker , while in picture two there is a traffic policeman. Also, their actions are different: the worker is paving a sidewalk and the policeman is on duty watching the traffic on the road.
As far as I am concerned, the job of a traffic policeman (cop) is more important for the society because people of this profession are responsible for our safety and order on the roads. Besides, they control all drivers to keep and obey traffic rules. It is very important for all drivers and passengers’ lives.
I’ve come to the end of my speaking. Thank you for listening.

Вступление. Определите тему фотографии.

Например:

You know that I keep photos of my school life in my album. I have lots of them. This one shows how we celebrated the Day of our Motherland Defender.

Основная часть. It was taken on the eve of the 23 rd of February last year. The students gathered in the assembly hall. You can see that the walls are decorated with posters. We are waiting for the concert to start. You can hardly see any faces because the students are looking at the posters trying to decide which of them is the best one. My friends and I made the poster which is on the left. We are all wearing our school uniforms. The general atmosphere in the picture is positive. The reason I keep this photo is because I like comparing decorations that we make for celebrating different holidays at school.

I decided to show you this photo because you have never been in my school. Why don’t we go to the concert together next time?

Заключение. Looking through photo albums is a pleasant thing.

Have you ever tasted saltwater? I guess you have and if so, you will agree with me that it’s not very refreshing. In fact, drinking more than a few cups worth can kill you.

According to the United States Geological Survey, whose mission is to collect and disseminate reliable, impartial, and timely information that is needed to understand the nation’s water resources, about ninety-seven percent of the water on our planet is saltwater; the rest is stored in lakes, rivers, glaciers and aquifers underground. Moreover, only about one-third of the world’s potential fresh water can be used for human needs. As pollution increases, the amount of usable water decreases.

Water is the most precious and taken-for-granted resource we have on Earth. It is also one of the most threatened resources. Increased population and possible climate change will put more and more strain on supplies of this vital resource as time goes on. What could we do in this situation? Though it may seem like science fiction, the solution could lie in outer space.

I’m not saying we’re going to be teleporting to a spring on the other side of the galaxy or colonizing another planet just to have longer showers - it’s much more mundane than that. What we could achieve realistically in this century is the successful use of the solar system’s rare metals and water, barring the invention of the matrix.

You may be surprised to learn that the metal in your keys, coins, cell phone, computer, car and everywhere else, originally came to this planet from space. When Earth formed, the heavy metals sank to the center and formed a solid core. The lighter elements formed the mantle and the crust we live on. Asteroids and comets that struck the Earth brought water and metals to the surface.

There are thousands of asteroids orbiting near Earth. Most asteroids are made of rock, but some are composed of metal, mostly nickel and iron. Probes could be sent out to these to identify useful ones. Then larger probes could push them towards the Earth where they can be handled in orbit.

In order to fuel ships and probes, we simply need to find a source of water, such as a comet or the surface of the moon. We collect the water and pass an electric current through it from a solar panel. The water separates into oxygen and hydrogen, which in liquid form is a powerful rocket fuel.

Is this really possible? We may soon find out. Private company SpaceX has already started delivering equipment to the International Space Station (ISS).

The ISS is proof that countries once at each other’s throats, like America and Russia, can work together and pull off multi-billion dollar projects.

Recently, a company called Planetary Resources Inc. made the news for getting big names like Google and Microsoft to invest in exploring asteroids for material gain. Although it will take many decades, it is wise to put the gears in motion now.

We’ve already landed probes on the surface of asteroids and taken samples from them. We can put something as large as the ISS, which weighs just short of 500 tons, according to National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), in orbit.

We can make a half-million-mile round-trip to get rocks from the moon. We can do all of these things already. They just need to be applied and developed in a smart way.
