READING

Time: 30 minutes(15 points)

Read the passage below and answer questions 1–15.

Even the tactful Japanese would probably smirk or at the very least expresspuzzlement if someone told them about a ‘traditional Russian tea party’. And yet, it isa well-known fact that Russians are unstoppable in theirincessant consumption oftea and in fact cannot live without it. It has become an extremely significant part ofRussian culture. Tea warms you up, wakes you up, and is nice after a big meal. Tea inRussia is not just a beverage – it’s a social activity with a long-reaching traditionbehind it. Even coffee that has been slowly but surely making inroads onto Russiantables still has not been able to replace tea. Russians will drink tea on any occasionand with no occasion whatsoever.

For the first time four pounds of tea were brought to Russia in 1638 by theRussian ambassador as a gift from the Mongol Khan for the Russian sovereign ofMoscow Michael Fyodorovich. At first the tsar and the boyars were not particularlyimpressed with the astringent and bitter drink. When all the tea presented by theMongol Khan had been drunk and the Moscow court began to forget its taste, it wasonce again the diplomats who reintroduced tea to Russia. Another Russianambassador Nicholas Spafary brought some tea from China. This time tea wasalready a known substance in Moscow and in 1679 a contract was entered into withChina under which the Chinese were to supply Russia with dried tea. After that,caravans carrying tea began regular journeys from the Great Wall of China to thewalls of the Moscow Kremlin.

However, the new beverage took quite some time to grow on Russians, who atfirst viewed it with suspicion as they did with everything that originated abroad. Inaddition, Chinese tea was too expensive while Russian herbal teas, such as cranberry,currant, briar, and sweet lime were always easy to get. And it was only by the early18 th century that tea had been fully accepted in Russian households and become anational drink.

An indispensable component of a Russian tea party is the samovar. Samovars are tea poetry; they come in all sorts of different shapes and sizes. Many of them are true works of art. A samovar is always placed in the middle of the table. It commonly has curved shapes suggesting warmth and kindness. While water is boiling inside the samovar and smoke is coming off the top of it, its sides reflect the people around the table, adding a surreal feel to the gathering. Samovars are usually heated up using charcoal and sometimes even fir cones. The slightly bitter aroma of the smoke relaxes and soothes those present. In addition to good looks and efficiency, samovars were always valued for their sound. When the water starts boiling a samovar would announce it with its own unique “song” that would add to the cosiness and intimacy of the occasion.

When you’re invited for tea in Russia, you can almost always expect to eat. Guests are offered several types of jam, honey, cakes, pies, chocolates and other sweets. Often you also get sandwiches, light salads, and fresh fruit and vegetables. Everything is served on ornate plates and dishes.

It is almost an insult not to offer tea to someone who came by your house, as it is an insult to refuse it when offered. In some parts of the former Soviet Union, especially in the North Caucasus region and Central Asia, the amount and quality of the food served when drinking tea indicates a level of respect that a host has for a guest, and it’s not uncommon for relationships to go sour just because only jam and sugar were served during tea.

There is a story about how in 1802 Prince Shakhovskoy met J.W. Goethe in a hotel in Munich. The famous German poet invited the Prince for tea. Having arrived and seeing that there was nothing but tea on the table, the Prince ordered sandwiches and some pastries without further ado. The two spent a most pleasant evening talking about German and Russian literature. To Shakhovskoy’s surprise, the next day he got a bill for the food he had ordered, which J.W. Goethe refused to pay, since he had only invited the Prince for tea.

There is another tradition that foreigners often fail to understand: Russians drink tea from glasses, which they put in special glass holders. This tradition dates back to the 17 th and 18 th century teahouses and it was only in the early 19th century that it was picked up by the commoners. Expensive glass holders were usually made from silver, the more commonplace glass holders were made primarily from alloys of nickel and silver. The finely decorated holders were used both for esthetic and practical purposes preventing the palms from direct contact with hot tea. Today almost nobody will drink tea from glasses at home and yet it has still survived on trains. It is a special unique kind of pleasure to drink hot tea from a glass in a glass holder sitting in the car of a long distance train and looking out at the landscapes speeding past outside!

Task 1. Questions 1–8

1. Tea and coffee are equally favoured by the Russian people.
2. Russians indulge in having tea whenever the opportunity affords itself.
3. The Russians instantly favoured the peculiar flavour of the new beverage.

6. The Russian samovar was a symbol of prosperity, well-being, and comfort.
7. Water in samovars is boiled ahead of time and just warmed up afterwards.
8. Glass holders were made to help the tea cool quicker.

Now we begin

She : I’ve never met anybody who enjoys every moment of making a movie as muchas you. You don’t stress out too much, you’re always in a good mood. And you havelittle rituals throughout the day, which you do with a lot of style – almost like you arecelebrating life, not just the work. You have to have your special cup of tea, in nicechina, not Styrofoam.

He : What are you saying, please?

She : It’s lovely! You don’t drink it as you’re walking, like the rest of us. Youfind a nice corner to read in.

He : That’s true. You’ve got to find your camp. We set up homes constantly – a newtrailer, a new set, a new country – so you have to find that space. I suppose there arerituals, but I think that comes from the theater. Before all of this started, I wasworking in the theater. I ended up in Los Angeles for two weeks and stayed alifetime.

She : A lot of people in our business get jaded, but you don’t. Why not?

He : Because, for me at least, it doesn’t get any easier. I have The Daughter comingout, and we’re getting close to showing the world what we did last year in Texas. Thatside of it is out of my control, but this is always an anxious time for me.

She : Tell me about The Daughter.

He : I play Colonel Eli McCullough, a man born out of violence. His parents werepioneers, annihilated by the Comanche. He was kidnapped and brought up by theComanche. So there’s a duality to the man’s psyche, a fractured mind and heart. Wefind him as a man in 1915 in Texas.

She : When you were doing theater in London as a young Irish lad, did you everimagine you’d be playing a Texan?

He : I grew up in an Irish farming town, but cowboys and Indians were the fabric of mylife as a young lad. My grandmother used to have this family come around to the house,Ma Butchey and her two sons. She would sharpen the knives and fix the pots, and hersons would teach me how to make the best bows and arrows and catapults. So it’s alwaysbeen in my heart to play in a western. But this is not really a western; it’s a family saga.

READING

Read the text and then answer questions 11-15.

Different Colours can affect us in many different ways; that’s according to Verity Allen. In her new series «Colour me Healthy”, Verity looks at the ways that colours can influence how hard we work and the choices we make. They can even change our emotions and even influence how healthy we are. «Have you ever noticed how people always use the same colours for the same things?» says Verity. “Our toothpaste is always white or blue or maybe red. It’s never green. Why not? For some reason we think that blue and white is clean, while we think of green products as being a bit disgusting. It’s the same for businesses. We respect a company, which writes its name in blue or black, but we don’t respect one that uses pink or orange. People who design new products can use these ideas to influence what we buy.” During this four-part series, Verity studies eight different colours, two colours in each programme. She meets people who work in all aspects of the colour industry, from people who design food packets, to people who name the colours of lipsticks. Some of the people she meets clearly have very little scientific knowledge to support their ideas, such as the American “Colour Doctor” who believes that serious diseases can be cured by the use of coloured lights. However, she also interviews real scientists who are studying the effects of green and red lights on mice, with some surprising results. Overall, it’s an interesting show, and anyone who watches it will probably find out something new. But because Verity is goes out of her way to be polite to everyone she meets on the series, it’s up to the viewers to make their own decisions about how much they should believe.

11. What is the writer doing in this text?

1. giving information about how colours influence us
2. reporting what happens in a new television series
3. giving information about a television presenter
4. giving his opinion of a recent television show

12. Which of the following shows the probable content of the four shows?

1. Part 1 – Health; Part 2 – Products and Industry; Part 3 – Emotions; Part 4 – Decisions
2. Part 1 – Blue and Black; Part 2 – Red and Orange; Part 3 – White and Grey; Part 4 – Green and Yellow
3. Part 1 – Meeting Designers; Part 2 – Meeting People who Name Colours; Part 3 – Meeting Doctors; Part 4 – Meeting Scientists
4. Part 1 – Cleaning Products; Part 2 – Make-up; Part 3 – Clothes; Part 4 – Food

13. According to Verity, why is a knowledge of colour important?

1. It can help you to choose the best products.
2. It can give you new ideas.
3. It can help you to change people’s minds.
4. It can help you to sell products.

14. Who does the writer respect least?

1. Verity Allen
2. The people who name lipsticks
3. The «Colour Doctor»
4. The scientists who work with mice

15. Which of the following would make a good title for the text?

1. Enjoy it, but don’t believe everything.
2. Another great show from Verity Allen! Five Stars!
3. Don’t miss this if you work in Business!
4. Watch this programme! It will make you healthy!

Линия УМК М. В. Вербицкой. Английский язык "Forward" (5-9)

Английский язык

Для данных этапов Центральная комиссия не предоставляет задания, а лишь дает рекомендации по их составлению. Одна из основных рекомендаций - предлагать ученикам задания по нежанровому письму: «выразите свое мнение», «прокомментируйте цитату», «посоветуйте книгу для школьной библиотеки» и т.д. Задача получается похожей на задание № 40 ЕГЭ, однако не должна повторять его полностью. Число слов может быть 100-120 или больше.

Пример

Time: 30 minutes. Comment on the following problem: Elderly people who live alone should be taken care of. In your comment use information from the article below:

Elderly people who live alone can be monitored by new technology that analyses household sounds to ensure their safety. The new sound monitoring system, developed by Fujitsu, the Japanese electronics company, examines noises in homes via a microphone connected to a data centre. The technology is refined enough to differentiate between the sound of a falling object or a collapsing human and can instantly alert family members or security firms if any abnormality is detected. From breathing and coughing to sleeping, all noises made by the resident can be detected by the technology, in addition to analysis of daily routines, heat and humidity levels.

Write 100-120 words. Remember to: make an introduction, express your personal opinion on the problem and give reasons for your opinion, express your attitude towards the information from the article, make a conclusion. Write in your own words.

Пояснение: От ученика требуется высказать свою точку зрения по предложенной проблеме, привести аргументацию и выразить свое отношение к информации, представленной в статье. Задача отчасти знакома по заданию № 40 ЕГЭ, поэтому не вызывает затруднения. Очень важно приучить школьников читать задание полностью и выполнять его строго по критериям.

Типичные ошибки:

• Невнимательность при прочтении задания.
• Несоответствие заданному объему.
• Отсутствие вступления и заключения.
• Элементарные грамматические, лексические, пунктуационные ошибки.

Writing: школьный и муниципальный этапы

Задания для данных этапов составляет Центральная предметно-методическая комиссия. Ученики работают уже с жанровым письмом. Даются те же жанры, что и на международных экзаменах: рассказ (story), статья (article), доклад/отчет (report), рецензия (review), личное и деловое письмо (letter). Задачи также представляют собой модифицированные задания ЕГЭ.

Типичные ошибки (независимо от жанра):

• Непонимание формата высказывания, жанра.
• Замена жанра.
• Неполное или неточное раскрытие темы.
• Нарушение логики (отсутствие или неправильное использование средств логической связи, резкие переходы, отсутствие вступления и заключения).
• Лексико-грамматические, орфографические, пунктуационные ошибки.

Рассмотрим подробнее наиболее распространенные творческие задания в жанрах рассказа и отчета.

Рассказ

Рассказ - это малая литературная форма, имеющая сюжет (фабулу). Текст в этом жанре должен соответствовать следующим требованиям:

• Оригинальный динамичный сюжет.
• Естественный тон повествования.
• Использование таких приемов как описание, повествование, рассуждение.
• Наличие индивидуально-авторской оценки событий и факторов, выражение чувств и эмоций автора и его героев.
• Наличие элементов диалогической речи.
• Четкая композиция (зачин, основная часть с кульминацией, развязка).
• Наличие заголовка.
• Разнообразие языковых средств.

• Прежде чем приступить к написанию рассказа, продумайте сюжетную линию, характеристику героев, составьте план и набросайте ключевые слова к пунктам плана.
• Учтите, что динамика событий в рассказе очень важна, ее можно подчеркнуть, используя слова at first, before, until, while, during, after, finally, when, etc., а также глаголы happen, realize, start, run, appear, disappear, occur, exclaim, sigh, mutter, say, wonder, etc.
• Используйте прилагательные и наречия, чтобы описать чувства и действия героев. При этом вместо приевшихся слов: big, small, good, bad, very употребляйте их синонимы и эквиваленты: enormous, tiny, terrific, horrible, extremely, etc.
• Будьте внимательны с использованием грамматических времен. Например, Past Continuous подходит для описания погоды в момент действия, Past Simple - для основных действий, Past Perfect - для событий, предшествующих истории.
• Примите во внимание, что в рассказе часто описываются герои, места, предметы, события.
• Помните, что в рассказе очень важны начало и конец.

Пример 1

Write a short story. Choose any subject but use in your story the following words at least once (underline the word from the list when using it for the first time): Fluffy, Ignorant, Board, Cord, Traffic.

Title your story using a word from the list. Include description of feelings and emotions. Include direct and indirect speech. Make an unexpected ending. Write 200-250 words. Time: 1 hour 15 minutes.

Пояснение: От ученика требуется написать рассказ с использованием определенных слов. Основная трудность в том, чтобы правильно употребить эти слова. На олимпиаде много сложностей было с Ignorant - участники путали его значения с русским словом «игнорирующий» и употребляли в неправильных конструкциях. Однако некоторые участники, напротив, удачно обыграли это многозначное слово.

Критерии оценивания

• Рассказ написан, в нем правильно использованы все 5 слов, указанных в задании. Слова подчеркнуты.
• Сюжет рассказа есть, он оригинален, понятен, динамичен и интересен.
• Есть заголовок, соответствующий содержанию рассказа, в заголовке использовано одно из заданных слов.
• Рассказ включает элементы прямой и косвенной речи, которая органично вписывается в сюжет.
• В рассказе переданы чувства и эмоции автора и/или героев.
• Конец рассказа неожиданный, но при этом полностью вписывается в сюжет и соответствует заданному жанру и стилю.
• Объем работы либо соответствует заданному, либо отклоняется от заданного не более чем на 10% в сторону увеличения или уменьшения (180-275 слов). Если объем работы отклоняется от заданного более чем на 10% в сторону увеличения (более 275 слов), проверке подлежат только первые 250 слов.

Организация текста (2 балла):

• Логика повествования не нарушена.
• Присутствуют и правильно используются средства логической связи.

Лексика (3 балла):

• Участник демонстрирует богатый лексический запас, необходимый для раскрытия темы, точный выбор слов и адекватное владение лексической сочетаемостью.
• Работа не имеет ошибок с точки зрения лексической сочетаемости.

Грамматика (3 балла):

• Участник демонстрирует грамотное и уместное употребление грамматических структур.

Орфография и пунктуация (2 балла):

• Участник демонстрирует уверенное владение навыками орфографии и пунктуации.

Рассказ, получивший наибольшее количество баллов:

A fluffy tail

Once upon a time, I was sitting in my office and observing my ignorant colleagues. I glanced at the watch and discovered that it was time to go home. So, I unplugged all the cords from my laptop, put a note on the board and left my workplace. Bob told me: «Have a nice day!» I told him to have a nice day too.

I left the office building, found my car in the car park and headed off to my home place. The way home usually takes an hour. It’s a boring trip, because while covering the distance I have to stay in an enormous traffic jam. Not to feel bored I switched on the radio and started waiting for the cars in front of me to move. Suddenly I saw something strange in front of my car. It looked like a roll of a newspaper. Then I understood that it was something fluffy and alive. I left the car and took the fluffy ball in my hands. It turned out to be a small cat with a fluffy tail. It looked miserable and was shivering with cold.

I decided to take it home just to feed it, because my wife would never let it live with us. A year ago our cat left home and didn’t come back. After this incident Monica couldn’t see any other cats. Well, this time she was about throwing the poor kitten away, when she suddenly found a necklace on the cat with the cat’s owner’s address. The address was ours! It was our cat that we had lost. How happy we were!

Отчет, получивший наибольшее количество баллов:

The aim of this report is to recommend what should be done in order to make students interested and successful in some school subjects. The chart was used to analyze the information. The biggest number of both boys and girls has passed state exams in computer science, mathematics and foreign languages. The percentage of them is higher than 40. The choice of chemistry, physics and geography appears to be a little bit lower - its data fluctuates from 30 to 40 percent. History is the least popular subject students have passed state exam in.

Computer science exam was the most popular one among girls. It is because of the fact that the IT development greatly affected the demand for programmers. However, in 2015-2016 academic year most boys passed mathematics exam, following the trend of being more interested in mathematical sciences than practical areas. Speaking about less popular subjects, it should be stressed that only 14 percent of girls succeeded in passing state exam in chemistry, whereas 20 percent of boys managed to pass geography exam.

Judging by our research, me can give the following recommendations. On the one hand, to raise students’ interest in unpopular subjects such as chemistry, history and geography teachers should use modern technology such as computers and eboards during the lesson. On the other hand, group work and school projects may make them more interested in the subject. In conclusion, we can make a point that both interests and success of students do not depend on what kind of science a particular subject refers to. It is all about the education progress which can be improved by the use of special equipment and another way of studying.

Комбинированные задания

Комбинированные задания в конкурсе Writing встречаются нечасто, однако ставят перед учениками очень интересные задачи, которые те выполняют с большим удовольствием. Суть в совмещении жанров, разных заданий из ЕГЭ.

Пример

Imagine that you are a teacher of English at school and you have given your students the writing assignment: Comment on the following statement. When you are studying away from home, the best choice for you is to live with your acquaintances. What is your opinion? Do you agree with this statement? Write 200-250 words. Use the following plan: make an introduction (state the problem), express your personal opinion and give 2-3 reasons for it, express an opposing opinion and 1-2 reasons for it,explain why you don’t agree with the opposing opinion,make a conclusion restating your position One of your students has sent you her essay by e-mail.

Task A. Find and correct the mistakes. The first one has been corrected as an example. Find 5 more mistakes (grammar, vocabulary or spelling) and correct them.

Task B. Playing the role of a school teacher, write an email to your student, expressing your opinion on her work. Do not comment on the grammar, vocabulary or spelling mistakes in your letter. Comment on the composition and general idea of the essay. Observe the rules of letter writing, except for the address. Do not write your real name! (use 100-140 words).

Student’s Essay When you are studying away from home, the best choice for you is to live with your acquaintances.

I disagree to this statement. If you are thinking of going away to study, your choice of accommodation will be very important. You may be lucky enough to have the chance of staying with somebody your parents know, for example, your distant relatives or your parents’ friends. However, this can bring problems as well as advantages. Family life may well distract you of your studies, and there will also be the question of what you should pay to your hosts. No matter how carring they may be and no matter how much they want you with them, they won’t expect to keep you for nothing. Paying too much or too little can easily lead to feeling awkward but setting the right amount can be tricky and embarrassed. You will also have to adjust with your hosts’way of life and put up with their habits. They will also have to do their best to make you feel at home. In other words, it is wrong to believe that if you are living with somebody you know it will be costing nothing either for you or for them. Living in a dormitory can often be the best arrangement after all.

Пояснение: От школьника требуется представить себя учителем английского, задавшим ученикам известное задание «выразить точку зрения по предложенной проблеме», проверить эссе одной из учениц, найти в нем 5 ошибок, прокомментировать это эссе в письме. То есть школьник имеет дело с жанром эссе, но сам при этом должен написать ответ в форме письма.

Ответ, получивший наибольшее количество баллов:

Dear Ann,

On the whole, your essay is very well done. Your point of view is clearly stated and supported by several arguments. Unfortunately, the opposing opinion is not mentioned in your work and is not commented upon. I am afraid there is no introduction in your essay. Try to add two sentences at the beginning where you paraphrase the statement and show that there are different views on the problem. I would also make two more paragraphs, starting with the words «Family life» and «In other words».

With best wishes,

Mr. Brown
