Now we are ready to start.

Speaker A

It’s large and spacious. There is a whiteboard, desks and a teacher’s table but the

most interesting feature is the special graffiti wall. We can write all kinds of

questions on the material we are studying at the moment. For example, if you don’t

understand something, you can write your question on the wall and another student

or teacher writes the answer.

Speaker B

I’m always glad to come to this room some time before the lesson and study the

maps on the walls and samples of stones and rocks on the shelves. Yes, I find

geography very interesting and it’s not a problem for me to spend hours writing out

facts about famous travellers and their discoveries. My favourite classroom activity

is studying and completing maps.

Speaker C

My grade for the Maths test was unusually high but I’m not happy about it at all.

My friend Tracy isn’t talking to me because of this. The thing is that in the exam

room I sat next to Tracy and she’s sure I copied the answers from her paper. That’s

not true but she doesn’t believe me. She thinks I cheated and she hates any

dishonesty.

Speaker D

I study in a large and modern school with well equipped classrooms, a good gym

and a swimming pool. The latter are very important for me because I use them

practically every day. When the lessons are over, my friend and I go to the gym to

exercise or to play volleyball. Twice a week I have a swimming class and my

friend does all kinds of experiments in the school chemistry laboratory.

Speaker E

Students’ performance depends a lot on their ability to research and look for

information by themselves. On the shelves the books are arranged in the

alphabetical order. To find the book you need to know the author. There is also an

electronic catalogue and access to the internet resources. Just type in the key word

to find whatever you want.

Раздел II. Чтение. Задание на множественные соответствия (MultipleMatching).

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

1.Ahugediamondofwater

5. The fresh air producer

2. A famous Russian toy

6. Famous for its size

3. Named after a famous scientist

7. A great source of knowledge

4. Getting higher than the sky

8. Spoken all over the world

A. Russia, also officially known as the Russian Federation, is the largest country

in the world. Its territory is 17,075,400 square kilometers. According to

scientists, the country’s territory would almost cover the surface of the planet

Pluto. It is the only country which is washed by 3 oceans and 12 seas. Russia is

considered to be a European country, but two-thirds of the country are in Asia.

However, most of the population lives in the European part of Russia.

B. Siberian Lake Baikal is the largest pool of fresh water on the planet. All the 12

major rivers of the world (the Volga, the Don, the Yenisei, the Ob, the Ganges,

the Amazon, etc.) would need to flow almost a year to fill a pool equal to the

volume of Lake Baikal. Another impressive fact is that even if all the rest of

the planet’s fresh water supply were to disappear, there would be enough fresh

water left in Lake Baikal to supply the people of the earth for up to 50 years.

C. Russia is the country with the largest forest reserves in the world. 45% of its

territory is covered in green forests. The forests are located in the European

north of the country, in Siberia and in the Far East. Forests play an important

role in the life and welfare of people. Russian forests are the biggest ‘lungs’ of

the Earth. They produce oxygen and clean the atmosphere of carbon dioxide

and other pollutants.

D. There are more than five thousand languages in the world. Russian is one of

the five major world languages. 280 million people around the world speak

Russian and it is one of the most widely spoken native languages in Europe.

The United Nations uses Russian as one of the official languages of the

organization. It is also used in international commerce, politics, academic and

cultural life.

E. For its collection of books, the Russian State Library is considered to be the

biggest in Europe and one of the largest in the world. The Russian State

Library was founded in 1862, in Moscow. The library has over 275 km of

shelves with more than 43 million items, including books, journals and

magazines, art publications, music scores and sound records, maps and other

things. There are items in 247 languages of the world.

F. Russia is known all over the world for its space programmes. In 1957 the

Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite in the world. Four

years later, in 1961, human space flight was accomplished. Soviet cosmonaut

Yuri Gagarin was the first man to journey into space. He orbited the Earth and

landed the same day. There are other impressive space achievements of the

country like the first long space flight, the first woman cosmonaut in space, and

the first spacewalk.

G. One of the most popular souvenirs tourists buy in Russia is the Matryoshka. It

is a doll made of wood and painted with colourful ornaments. Although the

Matryoshka is called a doll, it is actually a set of dolls of different sizes placed

inside one another. A traditional Russian Matryoshka has big black eyes, red

healthy cheeks and a friendly smile. She wears a national Russian costume, and

often has some flowers or a basket of fruit in her hands.

Устнаячасть

1.You need to read the text aloud. You have 1.5 minutes to read the text silently, and then be ready to read it aloud. Remember that you will not have more than 2 minutes for reading aloud.

In 1642 a French student invented the first mechanical calculator. He was only 18 and the counting machine was a present for his father. The father worked as a tax collector and the young man wanted to make his job easier.

The talented inventor made several machines but nobody was interested. The young man was ahead of his time. Many years passed before people realized how useful these machines could be and started mass producing them.

Today most mechanical calculators have been replaced with electronic models. These small devices can perform a lot of mathematical operations. You just need to enter the numbers by pressing the keys and you’ll see the final result on the screen in no time.

2.Take part in a survey. You have to answer six questions. Give full answers to the questions. Remember that you have 40 seconds to answer each question.

Teacher:How old are you?

Teacher:When did you get your first mobile phone?

Teacher:What do you usually use your mobile phone for?

Teacher: How do you feel when you forget your mobile phone at home?

Teacher:Do you think it's right that mobile phones are not allowed at some schools?

Teacher:In what places would you recommend switch off or turn down their phones? Why?
