As one approaches some crossroads, one comes to a sign which __________ that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other __________, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop (unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road); and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they __________ themselves on the main road.

Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, __________ home from work one evening when he came to a crossroads. It had a "Slow" sign, so he __________ down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.

At once he __________ a police whistle, so he pulled in to the side of the road and __________. A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and pencil in his hand and said, "You didn"t stop at that crossing."

"But the sign there __________ "Stop"," answered Mr. Williams. "It just says "Slow", and I did go slow."

The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise __________ over his face. Then he put his notebook and pencil away, scratched his head and said, "Well, I"ll be blowed! I __________ in the wrong street!"

As one approaches some crossroads, one comes to a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other cross roads, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop (unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road); and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road.

Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroads. It had a "Slow" sign, so he slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.

At once he heard a police whistle, so he pulled in to the side of the road and stopped. A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and pencil in his hand and said, "You didn"t stop at that crossing."

"But the sign there doesn"t say "Stop"," answered Mr. Williams. "It just says "Slow", and I did go slow."

The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put his notebook and pencil away, scratched his head and said, "Well, I"ll be blowed! I am in the wrong street!"

Before the last war, officers in the navy had a lot more freedom when their ship was in port than they have nowadays. They were expected to lead a busy social life, and to take an active part in sport ashore. It was therefore rather difficult for them to find time to do all their other duties.

Usually, all the officers in a ship used to have a regular meeting together once a week to receive orders from their captain, make reports and discuss any business that had to be discussed, such as who should represent the ship in the next football match.

One such meeting was being held on board a ship one day, and after the regular business had been completed, the time came to discuss the date of the next meeting. Friday of the next week was suggested, and so was Monday of the week after, but both of them interfered with somebody"s arrangements for the weekend, and in the end it was generally agreed that the meeting should be held on Wednesday, as this would be the least likely day to inter fere with anybody"s convenience, since it was right in the middle of the week.

As the officers were leaving, however, one of them was heard to say, "Wednesday is the worst day, because it interferes with two weekends!"

Mr. and Mrs. Williams had always spent their summer holidays in England in the past, in a small boarding-house at the seaside. One year, however, Mr. Williams __________ a lot of money in his business, so they decided to go to Rome and stay at a really good hotel while they went around and __________ the sights of that famous city.

They __________ to Rome, and arrived at their hotel late one evening. They expected that they would have to go to bed hungry, because in the boarding-houses they __________ in the past, no meals were served after seven o"clock in the evening. They were therefore surprised when the clerk who __________ them in the hall of the hotel asked them whether they __________ dinner there that night.

"________you still ________ dinner then?" asked Mrs. Williams.

"What __________ the times of meals then?" asked Mr. Williams.

"Well, sir," __________ the clerk, "we serve breakfast from seven to half past eleven in the morning, lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon, tea from four to five, and dinner from six to half past nine."

"But that hardly leaves any time for __________ to see the sights of Rome!" said Mrs. Williams in a disappointed voice.

One year, however, Mr. Williams made a lot of money in his business, so they decided to go to Rome and stay at a really good hotel while they went around and saw the sights of that famous city.

They flew to Rome, and arrived at their hotel late one evening. They expected that they would have to go to bed hungry, because in the boarding-houses they had been used to in the past, no meals were served after seven o"clock in the evening. They were therefore surprised when the clerk who received them in the hall of the hotel asked them whether they would be taking dinner there that night.

"Are you still serving dinner then?" asked Mrs. Williams.

"Yes, certainly, madam," answered the clerk. "We serve it until half past nine."

"What are the times of meals then?" asked Mr. Williams.

"Well, sir," answered the clerk, "we serve breakfast from seven to half past eleven in the morning, lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon, tea from four to five, and dinner from six to half past nine."

"But that hardly leaves any time for us to see the sights of Rome!" said Mrs Williams in a disappointed voice.

Some young soldiers who had recently joined the army were being trained in modern ways of fighting, and one of the things they were shown was how an unarmed man could trick an armed enemy and take his weapon away from him. First one of their two instructors took a knife away from the other, using only his bare hands; and then he took a rifle away from him in the same way.

After the lesson, and before they went on to train the young soldiers to do these things themselves, the two instructors asked them a number of questions to see how well they had understood what they had been shown. One of the questions was this: "Well, you now know what an unarmed man can do against a man with a rifle. Imagine that you are guarding a bridge at night, and that you have a rifle.

A certain poet had written a play, and arrangements were being made to perform it. Of course, the poet was asked to give his advice on the scenery, the lighting, and all the other things that help to make a play successful, and he proved to be a very difficult man to please, as he had his own very definite ideas of how each scene should look.

In one of the scenes in the play, it was necessary to produce the effect of a wonderful sunset, which the young lovers watched together before sing ing one of their great love songs.

The theatre electricians worked very hard to produce this sunset effect. They tried out all kinds of arrangements and combinations of lights-red lights, orange lights, yellow lights, blue lights, lights from above, lights from behind, lights from the front, lights from the sides-but nothing satisfied the poet, until suddenly he saw exactly the effect that he had been dreaming of producing ever since he had written his play.

"That"s it!" he shouted excitedly to the electricians behind the stage. "That"s just right! Keep it exactly like that!"

"I"m sorry, sir," answered the chief electrician, "but we can"t keep it like this."

"Why ever not?" asked the poet angrily.

"Because the theatre is on fire, sir," answered the chief electrician." That"s what"s producing the effect you can see now!"

Draughts (or ‘checkers’ as the Americans call it) is one of the most popular games around the world. The rules are simple. Even young children have no problem working out how to play. The top players study moves in the same way chess players do but anyone can pick it up and have a go. Getting to a high standard takes a lot of hard work and practice but the basics are not particularly difficult.

Since 1997, when the game of Ultima Online became popular, many thousands of people have played all kinds of games online – and the numbers are still increasing rapidly. Every year, more and more people discover the pleasures of playing over the internet and the next generation of games consoles are being designed with that in mind. There seems to be no sign that this explosion in online games will stop any time soon.

It has been called the greatest phenomenon in the history of games, but when Trivial Pursuit was created by two friends in 1981, few people had any idea what a hit it would be. It was a quiz game and none of the games companies expected it to do well, until an American company became interested in it. Many millions of Trivial Pursuit games have been sold since then in 19 languages and 33 different countries.

Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian was chess world champion from 1963 to 1969. He dominated the game during those years and almost never lost. He was known as a player who was strong in defence and very few players got the better of him. In fact, his defensive play was so good that he was known as ‘Iron Tigran’. When he did lose, it was big news in Moscow chess circles.

It seems that there have been some big changes in the British playground. Twenty years ago, traditional games were played in every school across the country during the break. These days, they are quickly being replaced by hand-held games consoles and other electronic games. Before long, there is a danger that traditional games could die out. Once they are forgotten, it may be impossible to bring these enjoyable pastimes back to the playground.

Although I left university with a good degree, I suddenly found that it was actually quite hard to find a job. After being unemployed for a few months, I realised I had to take the first thing that came along or I’d be in serious financial difficulties. And so, for six very long months, I became a market research telephone interviewer.

I knew it wasn’t the best company in the world when they told me that I’d have to undergo three days of training before starting work, and that I wouldn’t get paid for any of it. Still, I knew that the hourly rate when I actually did start full time would be good. So, I thought of the money I’d earn and put up with three days of unpaid training. Whatever those three days taught me, I wasn’t prepared for the way I would be treated by the supervisors.

It was worse than being at school. There were about twenty interviewers like myself, each sitting in a small, dark booth with an ancient computer and a dirty telephone. The booths were around the walls of the fifth floor of a concrete office block, and the supervisors sat in the middle of the room, listening to all of our telephone interviews. We weren’t allowed to talk to each other, and if we took more than about two seconds from ending one phone call and starting another, they would shout at us to hurry up and get on with our jobs. We even had to ask permission to go to the toilet. I was amazed how slowly the day went.

It wouldn’t have been so bad if what we were doing had been useful. But it wasn’t. Most of our interviews were for a major telecommunications company. We’d have to ring up businesses and ask them things like, ‘Is your telecoms budget more than three million pounds a year?’ The chances are we’d get the reply, ‘Oh, I don’t think so. I’ll ask my husband. This is a corner shop. We’ve only got one phone.’ And so the day went on.

The most frightening aspect of the job was that I was actually quite good at it. ‘Oh no!’ I thought. ‘Maybe I’m destined to be a market researcher for the rest of my life.’ My boss certainly seemed to think so. One day – during a break, of course – she ordered me into her office. ‘Simon,’ she said, ‘I’m promoting you. From tomorrow, you’re off telecoms and onto credit card complaints. I’m sure you can handle it. There’s no extra pay, but it is a very responsible position.’

Three weeks later I quit. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

She had called him the day before to (16) ______ a b c d _______ a few facts for an article she was writing for the newspaper – Dr Johansson was a leading expert in physics – and he had invited her to go and see his latest experiment.

However, he had insisted (18) ______ a b c d ______ seeing her, saying that she wouldn’t regret it. As they walked into the laboratory, Ruth wondered exactly what she was letting herself in for.

‘The transportation of a living creature!’ Dr Johansson said triumphantly, and he pressed a final button. There was a spark of electricity in the air. He opened the box and the cat had disappeared.
‘You…you’ve killed it!’ Ruth shouted. Dr Johansson smiled and pointed to the black box next to her. He (20) ______ a b c d ______ her to look inside. She slowly lifted the lid. The cat looked up at her, then closed its eyes and settled down for a nap.

Давно уже ничего не писала на блог! Вернее у себя то я пишу, причем несколько статей уже в процессе, но никак не могу их полностью закончить. Всё таки не хватает мне 24 часа в сутки!!! Ну никак!

Небольшие новости или почему так долго не писала?

Вообще, не думала, что в декретном отпуске буду так много работать. В смысле репетиторствовать. Думала, буду как все! Сидеть в декрете, гулять с малышкой, заниматься бытом, ну и парочку занятий в неделю, чтобы уж совсем не забыть свои навыки. Какой там!

Моя малышка растёт, а она чем больше становится, тем больше внимания требует. Только и успеваю смотреть, как куда-нибудь не заползла или не упала. Все мои ящички уже начала открывать. Пора обезопаситься!

Пора закрывать все мои ящики!!! Алиске всё интересно!

Ну и занятий у меня столько, что можно и не работать на основной работе! Сразу предвещаю вопросы, кто сидит с моей Алиской пока у меня занятия? Конечно же моя мама!

В соседней комнате они играют или спят, пока её мамочка трудится. Я частенько выхожу из комнаты, чтобы удостовериться всё ли в порядке, ничего не нужно ли. Вообщем, пока всех устраивает такое положение.

Перейдём к главному или почему так много внимания к разделу «Лексика и грамматика»?

Когда к вам приходит ученик, которому нужно сдавать ЕГЭ, мы всегда прощупываем почву. Сейчас речь будет идти именно о грамматическом разделе. Ко мне приходят совершенно разные ученики и, соответственно, у всех разный уровень подготовленности.

С Эльвирой на занятии. Штудируем отдельно раздел Лексика и грамматика

Кто-то из учеников говорит, что он хорошо владеет темами и его просто надо натаскать, кто-то признается, что лучше пройти весь курс сначала. Так вот именно последние ученики нас больше всего интересуют!

Скачайте тот файл с грамматическими темами и рассчитайте примерно, сколько часов или занятий у вас уйдёт на этот экспресс грамматический курс. У меня обычно выходит не больше полугода при регулярных занятий один раз в неделю по 1,5 часа. Чаще занимается ученик — значит быстрее пройдёте.

Оформляем темы в тетрадки!

И вот так, потихонечку, мы берем тему за темой (необязательно строго по списку, иногда меняем местами темы), я пишу в тетрадке обычно своей рукой, часто использую два цвета ручек (красный и синий), цветные маркеры.

Часто копирую материал из New Round-Up, особенно когда много писать некогда или когда хочется, чтобы материал был компактно умещён в тетрадке (обычно это таблицы).

Мой быстрый канцелярский набор для оформления тем в ученических тетрадках

Поэтому в моём арсенале всегда есть клей-карандаш, ножницы. Я быстренько через принтер вывожу материал, вырезаю, а ученики мне помогают приклеить материал в их тетради.

Особенно их забавляет клеить цветными клеями (синий, розовый, зеленый). Они делают это с удовольствием и немного разряжают атмосферу разговорами пока клеют.

Когда материал у них в тетрадях, мы его тщательно разбираем, где-то подписываем перевод, где то уточнения. И потом начинаем уже делать упражнения. Кто читает мой блог регулярно, тот уже в курсе, какие обычно книги и ресурсы я использую.

Часто беру упражнения и этих книг. Несмотря на то, что написано 7-8 класс, задания там есть нелегкие

В течение работы я использовала так много пособий, перебрала всевозможные грамматические упражнения, но, к сожалению, меня не устраивает ни одна книга целиком. Что-то возьму из одной книги, что-то из другой.

Люблю всё то, что делает Музланова. Слева — одно из новых её пособий, включая, кстати, раздел по устной части!

Иногда хочется побольше упражнений на сравнение конструкции to be going to и Future Simple, но часто представлены только на Future Simple, Future Continuous или Present Simple и Future Simple.

Пару слов о моём грамматическом сборнике упражнений!

Вообщем, как я и планировала, легче составить свой сборник и написать только те упражнения, которые я из года в год использую и люблю давать своим ученикам.

Этот процесс уже начался и скоро вы увидете первую часть моего сборника. В первой части будут темы Present Simple, Present Continuous и они же в сравнении (около 65 упражнений получилось). Сборник составлен, сейчас он проходит корректировку.

В будущем хочу собрать все темы, вернее упражнения, чтобы потом просто распечатать как книгу и не копировать по сотни раз одно и то же. Думаю, сделаю вам подарок к Новому Году. По крайней мере постараюсь очень!

P.S. Как и обещала, сборник готов! И вы его можете скачать, прочитав и найти в !

Задания B4-B10 (памятка ученикам)

Какие могут быть советы по данным заданиям? Что обычно я говорю своим ученикам и даю им в качестве памятки.

  • Прежде чем выполнять задания B4-B10, заполняя пропуски, нужно прочитать обязательно весь рассказ или текст целиком, чтобы понять содержание.
  • Подсказка на выбор правильной грамматической формы слова необязательно находится в самом предложении, а может быть, например, в предыдущем предложении.
  • Если требуется поставить глагол в нужную форму, прежде всего, определи, в каком залоге (активном или пассивном) стоит сказуемое. (этот момент очень важен, так как дети часто не видят этого, поэтому я постоянно акцентирую на это внимание!)
  • При определении временной формы глагола обрати внимание на ключевые слова (или как я их называю «слова-подсказки»). Поищи в предложении те слова, которые помогут определить нужное время. Если их нет, то прочитай предыдущее предложение и посмотри, в каком времени стоит глагол. Обычно в тексте все предложения взаимосвязаны.
  • Часто в задании требуется образовать от глагола причастие (третья форма глагола) или герундий (к глаголу прибавляется окончание -ing). Определи, какое это причастие — активное (герундий) или пассивное (третья форма глагола).
  • Если в задании стоит числительное, например, two, то скорее всего, требуется образовать порядковое числительное например, second. Вспомни правила их написания!
  • Если необходимо преобразовать местоимение, определи, какая форма требуется, например стоит местоимение We. Подумай, что здесь может быть: our (за ним сразу стоит существительное), us, ourselves или ours (без существительного). Если речь идёт об указательном местоимении, то посмотри какое может быть число ед. или мн.
  • Если нужно преобразовать существительное, то здесь нужно вспомнить правила образования множественного числа существительных. Часто бывают именно исключения. Повтори их!
  • Если нужно преобразовать прилагательное, то здесь речь идёт о степенях сравнения. Это либо сравнительная, либо превосходная. Вспомни правила образования степеней сравнения прилагательных!

Вот такие советы я обычно даю своим детишкам. Именно задания данного типа я довожу до автоматизма и ученики с лёгкостью их выполняют. Рекомендуемое время на этот тип заданий — 10 минут. Но натасканные ученики справляются и за 5 минут!

Тренируем грамматический раздел по этим книгам

Задания B11-B16 (Словообразование) Задания А22-А28 (Повышенный уровень)

Это задания повышенного уровня и направлены на распознавание и употребление изученных лексических единиц с акцентом на их лексическую сочетаемость. Составлены они в виде теста с множественным выбором.

Многим ученикам кажется такой тип заданий неисполнимым. В основном, что не знают, делают наугад, авось попадут.

Конечно, тут нужно иметь богатый словарный запас, ведь именно здесь проверяются фразовые глаголы, предлоги, устойчивые словосочетания, а также слова, близкие по форме или по значению, которые легко спутать (например, make и do).

Очень хорошее пособие! Отлично тренирует по фразовым глаголам, словам похожими по форме или значению, предлогам и т.д

Л. И. Романова — Английский язык. Лексика в тестах — купить в интернет-магазине Лабиринт

  • Прочитай полностью текст, не обращая внимание на пропуски, чтобы понять его основное содержание, и подумай, какое слово могло бы подойти. Даже если ты не сможешь вспомнить подходящее слово, оно начнёт «вертеться у тебя на языке», и ты сразу узнаешь его, когда почитаешь предполагаемые ответы.
  • При выборе ответа обрат внимание на слова, прилегающие к пропуску, так как очень часто именно они определяют правильный ответ. Часто выбор правильного ответа может зависеть от предлога, который стоит сразу после пропуска.
  • Если ты не знаешь, какой ответ выбрать, попробуй сначала исключить варианты, которые точно не подходят.
  • Если уж ты всё-таки не можешь определить правильный ответ, положись на свою интуицию и попытайся отгадать, но ни в коем случае не оставляй пустую клетку в бланке.
Напоследок

Почему такое пристальное внимание я уделяю этому разделу?

А все потому, что очень многое в данном разделе зависит от ученика. Если разделы Аудирование или Чтение непредсказуемые, то есть мы заранее не можем знать, какой текст попадётся или какое произношение будет у говорящего, то от раздела Лексика и Грамматика мы ожидаем то, что учили всё это время.

И тут нужно постараться сделать всё возможное, зависящее от нас. Ведь грамматика не бесконечна, её можно изучить и очень даже хорошо преуспеть в ней. Единственное, что может нас страшить, так это лексика. Вот с ней работать и работать!!!

P. S. Увеличить словарный запас и потренировать грамматику можно также не только по учебникам и пособиям. Всегда интересно делать это интерактивно. А уж ученики просто обожают делать задания на компьютере!

Сама я активно использую в своей работе как в школе, так и на индивидуальных занятиях. Более подробно об этих курсах, я писала в своих обзорах и .

Не упустите такую возможность-приобрести два диска по цене одного! Акция действительна до 7 декабря!!!

Заканчиваю писать, надеюсь я с вами ещё встречусь до Нового Года, сильно пропадать не буду. Также заглядывайте в мою

Задание 1

Методическая подсказка

Это задание проверяет знание грамматики английского языка. Обратим внимание на те части речи, которые необходимо трансформировать. Важно, что при изменении формы слова часть речи не изменяется! Справа от текста могут быть даны любые из шести частей речи. Это имя существительное, наречие, количественное числительное, личное местоимение и глагол. При выполнении этого задания необходимо учитывать, какие грамматические формы имеют данные части речи. Имя существительное единственного числа принимает форму множественного числа (здесь необходимо, помимо общего правила образования множественного числа существительных, вспомнить все исключения и особенности правописания форм множественного числа существительных). Количественное числительное становится порядковым числительным (обратите внимание на сложные случаи образования и написания некоторых числительных). Имя прилагательное и наречие имеют сравнительную или превосходную степени (здесь также есть некоторые случаи, которые надо помнить). Личное местоимение может превратиться в притяжательное (краткая или полная формы), объектное или возвратное. Что касается глагола, помните, что он может стоять в личной и неличной форме (например, в виде Present Participle или Past Participle). Если глагол должен быть употреблен в личной форме, то надо определить, в каком залоге должен стоять глагол (действительном или страдательном) и в каком грамматическом времени. Для правильного определения грамматического времени, надо, во-первых, определить в каком бытийном (жизненном) времени представлено предложение или ситуация. Для этого мы, смотря на глаголы вокруг пропуска и другие указатели времени, определяем, относится ли повествование к настоящему, прошедшему или будущему. Определив время, мы должны определить временную форму. Для этого мы ищем в предложении слова-подсказки или индикаторы грамматических времен (например, every day, usually - индикаторы Present Simple, since, for, yet - индикаторы Present Perfect. Также часто помогает линия времени, которая наглядно показывает, какая существует последовательность между действиями и событиями.

Кроме того, глагол может являться частью условного предложения (есть четыре, начиная с нулевого, типа условных предложений, в каждом из которых глаголы стоят в определенных формах) или предложения, начинающегося с I wish или If only.

Не забудьте также обратить внимание на те слова, которые стоят непосредственно перед пропуском - не забывайте, что есть ряд глаголов, прилагательных, фраз и конструкций, после которых необходимо употребление инфинитива с частичкой или без частички to или герундия (например, fancy going, want to go, make symbol do smith, There"s" no point in doing smith...).

Приступаем к выполнению задания теста.

19. Around 1350, art, learning, and science started to flourish in some parts of Europe. To many people, this was the beginning

20. Greece ________ one 1,900 years before. About 500 years later, Roman civilization had been at its height.

21. Because this new golden age was something like _________ Greek and Roman periods, it is called the Renaissance. The

word "renaissance" means "rebirth." Many Greek and Roman values were reborn in the Renaissance.

22. Windsor is a small town not far from London which is about a thousand years old. It became the setting for The Merry ___________ of Windsor,

24. What the town is famous for today is Windsor Castle, the Royal residence. From a plane Windsor Castle with its big round tower looks

25. Since then the Castle ________________. It required a lot of money. To pay for it, it was decided to open Buckingham

Palace to the public at selected times of the year and to charge visitors a fee.

Рассуждение

Читаем представленные тексты (это может быть и один текст), чтобы иметь общее представление, о чем идет речь. Дальше заполняем пропуски.

Номер 19. Написано количественное числительное one, следовательно, единственной возможной формой является порядковое числительное first . Номер 20 . Представлен глагол. Проводим блиц-анализ: пассив или актив? - актив. Это личная форма, так как у подлежащего Greece нет сказуемого, значит нужна полная форма глагола. Это не условное предложение, так как отсутствуют соответствующие слова if, unless и другие. Определяем бытийное время - прошедшее (Past), так как есть слова 1900 years before, had been. Теперь определяем грамматическое время (tense) - смотрим на время в предыдущем предложении - was not, в предложении с пропуском есть фраза 1900 years before-рисуем линию времени, выставляем точку was not в прошлом, определяем, где - слева или справа будет находиться точка 1900 years before. Она находится справа. Действия идут одно за другим в прошлом, значит глагол будет стоять во времени Past Perfect, показывая, что действие уже произошло и завершилось до глагола was not. Следующее предложение подтверждает правильность нашего выбора - had been at its height тоже до глагола was not. Следовательно, глагол have ставим в форму (Past Perfect - had had ).
Номер 21. Здесь стоит прилагательное early (это именно прилагательное, так как оно является определением к словам Greek and Roman periods), и данное прилагательное надо поставить в сравнительную степень, поскольку период сравнивается только с греческим и римским периодами, а не со всеми периодами истории.
Номер 22. Написано существительное wife в единственном числе. Единственная возможная трансформация - форма множественного числа wives (существительное, заканчивающееся на -f, -fe во множественном числе меняет f на ves).
Номер 23. Дано личное местоимение he. Данное местоимение не является в тексте подлежащим, а является дополнением, соответственно, необходимо использовать объектное местоимение him .
Номер 24. Дан глагол. Используем знакомый алгоритм выполнения задания): актив или пассив? - Актив, ведь подлежащее огонь (fire) может разрушить здание. Это не условное наклонение. У подлежащего нет сказуемого, значит - это глагол в личной форме. Бытийное время прошедшее, здесь указан год - 1992. И этот год также говорит о том, что это Past Simple (действие, совершаемое в определенный момент времени в прошлом). Правильная форма destroyed .
Номер 25. Дан глагол repair. Актив или пассив? - Пассив, замок никого починить не может, отремонтировать можно его. Не условное наклонение, личная форма, потому что оно является сказуемым. В предыдущем и последующем предложениях глаголы стоят в прошедшем времени, однако в самом предложении с пропуском есть since then, что является указателем перфектных времен. Чтобы решить, что использовать -Present Perfect или Past Perfect - мы рисуем линию времени. Ставим точку в прошлом destroyed. Глагол repair в правильной форме будет стоять справа или слева от глагола destroyed? - Справа. Значит мы ставим глагол в Present Perfect - has been repaired .

Таким образом ответы на задания с 19 по 25 выглядят так: 19 - first, 20 - had had, 21 - earlier, 22 - wives, 23 - him, 24 - destroyed, 25 - has been repaired.

Australia

26. In 1770, James Cook landed on the east coast of Australia and claimed the land for Great Britain. For many years after that,

only a few people came to Australia ___________. It was too far from Europe to attract many outsiders.

27. The first settlers were ______________. They were not asked if they wanted to come.

28. Moving to Australia was part of their ___________________. In time they were joined by more willing settlers who wanted

to find adventure and a better life.

29. Like the settlement of the United States, much of Australia’s history deals with the push west. There was, however, one big

In their drive westward, the Australians found no rich river valleys or fertile plains. Instead, they found only

dry empty land they called the outback.

30. The outback was _________________ any place the early settlers had ever seen. For months there would be no rain at all.

Then suddenly the skies would open up. Within hours, rivers overflowed their banks. Yet only a few days later the land

would be as dry as ever.

31. Few settlers were willing to risk their life in such a harsh land. Then gold was ___________ there in 1852. Thousands flocked

to the outback of Australia to make their fortunes.

Рассуждение

Номер 26 . Only a few people came to Australia как? - наречие, которое определяет глагол came. В последующем предложении идет объяснение, почему это именно так происходило.
Номер 27. The first settlers were ........... В данной ситуации за глаголом were может стоять или прилагательное, уточняющее, какими они были, или существительное, сообщающее, кем были эти поселенцы (если этот выбор верный, то существительное будет стоять во множественном числе исходя из слова settlers во множественном числе и слова were. Последующее предложение не исключает ни одного из этих вариантов, поэтому оставляем пока обе эти опции.
Номер 28. Moving to Australia was part of their....... Мы видим отсутствующую часть фразы с предлогом of, в которой до и после предлога должны стоять существительные, и перед пропуском стоит краткое притяжательное местоимение their, которое определяет существительное. Следовательно, пропущенная часть речи это существительное.
Номер 29. There was, however, one big...... После конструкции There was должно стоять существительное, что подтверждается наличием перед пропуском числительного и имени прилагательного, определяющих ту же часть речи. Следовательно, пропущенное слово существительное единственного числа (индикатор числа слово one).
Номер 30. The outback was .............any place the early settlers had ever seen. После was может стоять или причастие или прилагательное или существительное. Так как существительное уже есть (place), следовательно, пропущенная часть речи -прилагательное.
Номер 31. Then gold was.........there in 1852. Аналогичная ситуация номеру 30. Исходя из смысла всего предложения, предполагаем, что скорее всего это будет past participle, определяющее, что произошло с золотом в 1852 году.

Отметив на полях КИМа, рядом с каждым пропуском определенные нами части речи, мы открываем сами слова справа.

Номер 26 - наречие, значит нужно подставить суффикс -ly, получаем слово willingly . Перечитываем абзац со вставленным словом - смысл сохранен.
Номер 27 - слово prison предполагает, что нам нужно существительное, уточняющее, кем были первые поселенцы. Последующее предложение подтверждает это. Образуем существительное prisoners во множественном числе.
Номер 28 - образуем от слова punish собирательное существительное punishment , которое завершает предложение, делая его логическим дополнением идеи, высказанной в двух предыдущих предложениях.
Номер 29 - образуем от слова differ существительное difference. Перечитываем абзац, образованное существительное идеально вписывается в него, так как в абзаце идет речь о разнице в освоении запада в Соединенных Штатах и Австралии.
Номер 30 - нам предлагают заменить слово like, которое само по себе уже является прилагательным. Следовательно, часть речи уже определена сама собой, мы должны только, сохранив эту часть речи, добавить отрицательную приставку с тем, чтобы образовать новое, подходящее по смыслу, слово - unlike.
Номер 31 - нам дано слово covered, которое уже является причастием. Следовательно, как и в предыдущем случае, нам нужна отрицательная приставка. В случае с covered их может быть две: dis- и un- . Uncovered - приоткрыл, снял покрытие.... Discovered - обнаружил, открыл что-то новое. В данном контексте подходит второе значение. Следовательно, верное слово - discovered .

Ответы: 26 - willingly, 27 - prisoners, 28 - punishment, 29 - difference, 30 - unlike, 31 - discovered.

3. Задание под номерами 32-38, за которое дается максимальное количество баллов - 7 (по 1 баллу за каждый правильный ответ), сформулировано следующим образом:

Методическая подсказка

В третьем задании (32-38) части раздела предлагается связный текст с пропусками и 4 вариантами их заполнения (1-4), из которых только один является правильным. Это задание проверяет умение использовать лексику в коммуникативном контексте с учетом специфики:

  • форм одного слова и слов, близких по написанию и звучанию;
  • значений одного слова и его синонимов, антонимов, омонимов;
  • норм лексической сочетаемости, принятых в английском языке и т.д.

Для эффективного выполнения этого задания следует:
1. Просмотреть весь текст с пропусками, постараться понять его содержание
2. Читать внимательно весь фрагмент, но особое внимание уделять предложению с пропущенным словом
3. Постараться предугадать пропущенное слово, опираясь на контекст, окружающие пропуск слова.
4. Изучить все предложенные варианты ответа, выбрать наиболее подходящий с учетом значения и норм лексической сочетаемости пропущенного слова. Особое внимание следует уделить синонимам (у них могут быть разные оттенки значения, они могут иметь различия в управлении и сочетаемости с другими словами), а также с созвучными словами или словами со сходным написанием (у них могут быть разные значения).
5. Прочитать предложение с пропуском еще раз, убедиться, что выбранное слово является наиболее правильным для заполнения пропуска. Определить, почему остальные слова не подходят.
6. Если не можете осознанно выбрать ни один из предложенных вариантов, выбирайте ответ интуитивно, не оставляйте задание без ответа.

Growing up with Joey

I enjoy thinking of my childhood. But when I think of my home town where I grew up, all that I 32 __________ to remember is dust.
