Сначала посмотрим на сам текст «A special lunch ЕГЭ», который представлен на сайте ФИПИ.

a special lunch

А32. Перед нами группа синонимичных глаголов и лишь один из них выбивается из этой цепочки, а именно provided, поэтому начнем именно с него. Обычно такие слова являются ли правильным ответом либо первым, которое нужно вычеркнуть из списка.

He praised her work and 32______ to publish her stories in his magazine.

Ответ:

  • suggested
  • provided
  • proposed
  • offered

provide smth – предоставлять что-то
provide smb with smth/ provide smth to smb — предоставлять кому-то что-то
provide smth for smb/smth – предоставлять что-то кому-то/для чего-то

Смотрим теперь на структуру предложения после пропуска. Там мы видим to+инфинитив, что говорит о том, что этот глагол сюда не подходит.

Остались три глагола со значением «предлагать»: suggest, propose, offer. И только после offer можно использовать to+инфинитив в значении «предложить что-то сделать».

Suggest в этом случае требует герундия, то есть глагола с окончанием -ing.

Propose + to+ инфинитив имеет уже совершенно другой перевод «намереваться/планировать что-то сделать». Поэтому правильным будет offer в форме прошедшего времени offered.

Более подробно узнать о разнице между всеми этими глаголами можно здесь. Также предлагаем вам пройти тест, который поможет вам понять, насколько хорошо вы разбираетесь в этой теме.

Ответ: offered

A33. Довольно редко, но, как мы видим, все же встречаются задания на относительные местоимения. Они обычно играют роль союза в сложном предложении, но могут использоваться и самостоятельно как наречия. Давайте посмотрим, как они переводятся.

“Please order 33______ you like”.

Ответ:

  • whenever
  • wherever
  • whoever
  • whatever

whenever — когда бы ни, когда угодно
wherever — куда бы ни, где бы ни, всюду
whoever — кто бы ни, кто угодно
whatever — что бы ни, что угодно

Переведем теперь предложение с пропуском, вставив в него каждое из предложенных слов. Кстати, в данном предложение эти относительные местоимения выступают в качестве союзов, поэтому переводить их будем всегда первым из упомянутых выше способов.

“Please order whenever/wherever/whoever/whatever you like”. — Пожалуйста, закажи когда бы ни/куда бы ни, где бы ни/кто бы ни/что бы тебе ни захотелось.

По смыслу подходит последнее слово whatever.

Ответ: whatever

A34. Перед нами задание на знание фразовых глаголов. Это становится понятно, если посмотреть на слово после пропуска, где мы видим послелог up. Давайте выясним, с какими из приведенных ниже глаголов он может сочетаться и какие значения иметь.

She had been 34______ up on very plain food and everything on the menu looked so fancy and expensive.

Ответ:

  • grown
  • raised
  • brought
  • risen

grow up — вырастать
raise up – поднимать, воскрешать
bring up – воспитывать, выращивать
rise up — продвигаться по карьерной лестнице, расти в звании, протестовать

She had been grown/raised/brought/risen up on very plain food and everything on the menu looked so fancy and expensive. — Ее вырасла/подняли/воспитали, вырастили/продвинули по карьерной лестнице на очень простой еде и все, что было в меню, выглядело необычно и дорого.

По смыслу подходит brought.

Ответ: brought

A35. Данное задание проверяет знание слов-связок. О них мы подробно рассказываем здесь (linking words: 1 тип, 2 тип (1 часть, 2 часть, 3 часть), 3 тип). Вы также можете проверить свои знания по этой теме, выполнив тест.

35 ______, he asked after a while if he could order for her.

Ответ:

  • However
  • Therefore
  • Although
  • Otherwise

Смотрим на место слова-связки и пунктуацию. Предложение начинается с пропуска, а следом стоит запятая, что говорит о том, что нужно вводное слово. Их здесь три: however, therefore, otherwise. Although – это союз, а как мы знаем, после союза запятая не ставится, поэтому исключаем его.

Подставляем оставшиеся варианты в предложение.

Внимание: при работе со словами-линкерами нужно обязательно перевести не только предложение с пропуском, но и предыдущее предложение, чтобы было понятно, какой вариант правильный.

Jerry saw her discomfort. However/Therefore/Otherwise, he asked after a while if he could order for her. — Джерри видел, что ей дискомфортно. Однако/Следовательно/Иначе он спросил спустя некоторое время, может ли он ей что-то заказать.

По смыслу подходит therefore.

Ответ: therefore

A36. Выполнение этого задания может занять всего пару секунд, если знать предложные управления глаголов. Только у глагола remind есть предложное управление of: remind smb of smb/smth – напоминать кому-то о ком-то/чем-то. Остальные глаголы предложных управлений не имеют. Узнать о разнице между remind и remember, а также синонимичных им глаголах recall и recollect можно здесь. Также предлагаем вам пройти тест, чтобы потренировать данные глаголы.

He 36______Dotty of her elder brother.

  • Ответ:
  • reminded
  • remembered
  • revised
  • reviewed

Ответ: reminded

A37. Запомните выражение be in touch – быть на связи.

I’ll be 37______ touch soon.

Ответ:

  • at
  • in
  • on
  • by

Ответ: in

A38. В последнем задание проверяется знание устойчивого выражения say goodbye. Еще больше устойчивых выражениях, а также правила о разнице между say, tell, speak, talk найдете здесь. Не забудьте пройти тест, чтобы убедиться, что тема понятна на 100%.

Then she 38______ goodbye and caught a cab to the railway station.

  • Ответ:
  • spoke
  • told
  • said
  • talked

Ответ: said

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

5. Massive Destruction
6. Buried Treasure
7. Reason for Extinction
8. Intelligent Enemies

A. The VLT (Very Large Telescope) is the world’s largest telescope and it is taking scientists further back to the Big Bang than they ever thought possible. In other words, the VLT is a kind of a time machine, giving astronomers detailed views of events that took place in the earliest days of the cosmos. One day, we will have a much clearer picture of how our planet was born.

B. The latest development in the debate amongst scientists about what killed the prehistoric dinosaurs is the suggestion that acid rain was the cause. Some geologists suggest that a large meteor hitting the earth at 65 kilometres per second would have led to strongly acidic rain falling all over the world. This idea is fascinating but it would mean the dinosaurs would all have died within a very short time.

C. In 1948, a British farmer discovered an interesting lump of metal while ploughing his field. At first he thought the metal bits were parts of an old bed. Then more ‘parts of old beds’ turned up and the farmer took them to the local museum. ‘But these bits are priceless!’ exclaimed the keeper of the museum. ‘They are Iron Age jewellery and coins!’ Over the next 40 years, more and more items were found in the same field.

D. Rats may have had a bit of a hard time over the years but these days lots of people are forgetting about guinea-pigs and hamsters and are buying rats instead. Domestic rats aren’t the same as the ones that run around rubbish bins — they’re actually quite cute. They are very intelligent and can be trained like dogs. They come in different colours and — a big bonus — they will eat anything!

E. In Western cultures, people look each other in the eye during a conversation to show interest and trust, but in many Asian countries, it’s rude to look people in the eye, especially a superior such as a teacher. One of the most basic and powerful signals is when a person crosses his or her arms across the chest. This can indicate that a person is putting up an unconscious barrier between themselves and others.

F. Earthquakes happen all the time in all parts of the world but we don’t notice most of them because they are small. However, big earthquakes are really dangerous. They can make buildings fall down, set off landslides and do other deadly things. The highest death toll caused by an earthquake was in China in 1556, when at least 830,000 people died.

G. According to scientists, Americans watch more TV on average than any other nationality. In fact, many people, particularly children, sit for 35 hours or more per week glued to the box. What’s wrong with watching all that TV? Studies have linked it to everything from obesity to aggression in children not to mention that it puts your mind into a sort of sedated state. Habitual television watching, over long periods of time, has been known to cause depression, and anger.

‘Have you written a letter to the Froplinsons?’ asked Egbert.

‘No,’ said Janetta, with a note of tired defiance in her voice; ‘I’ve written eleven letters today expressing surprise and gratitude for sundry unmerited gifts, but I haven’t written to the Froplinsons yet.’

‘Someone will have to do it,’ said Egbert.

‘I don’t dispute the necessity, but I don’t think that someone should be me,’ said Janetta. ‘I wouldn’t mind writing a letter of angry recrimination or heartless satire to some suitable recipient. In fact, I should rather enjoy it, but I’ve come to the end of my capacity for expressing servile amiability. Eleven letters today and nine yesterday, all couched in the same strain of ecstatic thankfulness: really, you can’t expect me to sit down to another. There is such a thing as writing oneself out.’

‘I’ve written nearly as many,’ said Egbert, ‘and I’ve had my usual business correspondence to get through, too. Besides, I don’t know what it was that the Froplinsons sent us.’ ‘A William the Conqueror calendar,’ said Janetta, ‘with a quotation of one of his great thoughts for every day in the year.’

‘Impossible,’ said Egbert; ‘he didn’t have three hundred and sixty-five thoughts in the whole of his life, or, if he did, he kept them to himself.’

‘Well, it was William Wordsworth, then,’ said Janetta; ‘I know William came into it somewhere.’

‘That sounds more probable,’ said Egbert; ‘well, let’s collaborate on this letter and get it done. I’ll dictate, and you can scribble it down. ‘Dear Mrs. Froplinson, thank you and your husband so much for the very pretty calendar you sent us. It was very good of you to think of us.’ ’

‘You can’t possibly say that,’ said Janetta, laying down her pen. ‘We sent them something on the twenty-second,’ said Janetta, ‘so they simply had to think of us. There was no getting away from it.’

‘What did we send them?’ asked Egbert gloomily.

‘Bridge-markers,’ said Janetta, ‘in a cardboard case, with some inanity about ‘digging for fortune with a royal spade’ emblazoned on the cover. The moment I saw it in the shop I said to myself ‘Froplinsons’ and to the attendant ‘How much?’ When he said ‘Ninepence,’ I gave him their address, jabbed our card in, paid tenpence or elevenpence to cover the postage, and thanked heaven. With less sincerity and infinitely more trouble they eventually thanked me.’

‘The Froplinsons don’t play bridge,’ said Egbert.

‘One is not supposed to notice social deformities of that sort,’ said Janetta; ‘it wouldn’t be polite. Besides, what trouble did they take to find out whether we read Wordsworth with gladness? For all they knew or cared we might be frantically embedded in the belief that all poetry begins and ends with John Masefield, and it might infuriate or depress us to have a daily sample of Wordsworthian products flung at us.’

‘Well, let’s get on with the letter,’ said Egbert. ‘How clever of you to guess that Wordsworth is our favourite poet.’

Again Janetta laid down her pen.

‘Do you realise what that means?’ she asked; ‘a Wordsworth booklet next Christmas, and another calendar the Christmas after, with the same problem of having to write suitable letters of thankfulness. No, the best thing to do is to drop all further allusion to the calendar and switch off on to some other topic.’

‘But what other topic?’

‘Oh, something like this: ‘What do you think of the New Year Honours List? A friend of ours made such a clever remark when he read it.’ Then you can stick in any remark that comes into your head; it needn’t be clever. The Froplinsons won’t know whether it is or isn’t.’

‘We don’t even know on which side they are in politics,’ objected Egbert; ‘and anyhow you can’t suddenly dismiss the subject of the calendar. Surely there must be some intelligent remark that can be made about it.’

‘Well, we can’t think of one,’ said Janetta wearily; ‘the fact is, we’ve both written ourselves out.’

There was a long silence, the forlorn silence of those who are bereft of hope and have almost ceased to care. Then Egbert started from his seat with an air of resolution. The light of battle was in his eyes.

‘Let me come to the writing-table,’ he exclaimed; ‘I’m going to write to the editor of every enlightened and influential newspaper in the Kingdom, I’m going to suggest that there should be a sort of epistolary Truce of God during the festivities of Christmas and New Year. From the twenty-fourth of December to the third or fourth of January it shall be considered an offence against good sense and good feeling to write or expect any letter or communication that does not deal with the necessary events of the moment. Answers to invitations, arrangements about trains, renewal of club subscriptions, and, of course, all the ordinary everyday affairs of business, sickness, engaging new cooks, and so forth, these will be dealt with in the usual manner as something inevitable. But all the devastating accretions of correspondence, incident to the festive season, these should be swept away to give the season a chance of being really festive.’

‘But you would have to make some acknowledgment of presents received,’ objected Janetta; ‘otherwise people would never know whether they had arrived safely.’

‘Of course, I have thought of that,’ said Egbert; ‘every present that was sent off would be accompanied by a ticket bearing the date of dispatch and the signature of the sender, and some conventional hieroglyphic to show that it was intended to be a Christmas or New Year gift; there would be a counterfoil with space for the recipient’s name and the date of arrival, and all you would have to do would be to sign and date the counterfoil, add a conventional hieroglyphic indicating heartfelt thanks and gratified surprise, put the thing into an envelope and post it.’

‘It sounds delightfully simple,’ said Janetta wistfully, ‘but people would consider it too perfunctory.’

‘It is not a bit more perfunctory than the present system,’ said Egbert; ‘I have only the same conventional language of gratitude at my disposal with which to thank dear old Colonel Chuttle for his perfectly delicious Stilton, which we shall devour to the last morsel, and the Froplinsons for their calendar, which we shall never look at. So you see the present system of acknowledgment is just as perfunctory and conventional as the counterfoil business would be, only ten times more tiresome and brain-racking.’

‘Your plan would certainly bring the idea of a Happy Christmas a step nearer realisation,’ said Janetta. ‘Meanwhile, what am I to say to the Froplinsons?’

(Adapted from ‘Down Pens’ by H. H. Munro)

2. Evening drinks

3. Food for relaxation

4. Skipping the meal

5. Foreign cuisine

6. Unusual meals

7. Traditional morning meal

8. Take it ready to eat

A. If you go to a hotel in Britain and ask for a typical English breakfast, you will probably get bacon and eggs, sausage, mushrooms, baked beans, tea and toast. When porridge juice are offered as well, the meal is sometimes advertised as a «full Engilsh breakfast». Many years ago people couldn’t imagine their breakfast without a bowl of cerea or usual bacon and eggs.

B. But how many people in England actually eat an English breakfast? Only one person in ten. One in five people say all they have for breakfast is a cup of coffee, and many children go to school without eating anything. That is happening because people lack time. They are always in a hurry and prefer to choose something light and ready-made, especially in the morning.

C. If in Britain you stay with a family, you will almost certainly be given a «packed lunch» to eat for your midday meal. Some factories and schools have canteens where a packed lunch is the most common thing to eat. A packed lunch usually consists of some sandwiches, a packet of crisps, an apple, and a can of something to drink, for example, Coca-Cola. The quality of the packed lunch can vary.

D. Fish and chips is the classic English takeaway food. It is usually bought ready cooked at special shops — fish and chip shops, or «chippies» as they are sometimes called. This takeaway food is wrapped in paper to be eaten at home or outside. If you go to a fish and chip shop, you’ll be asked if you want salt and vinegar to be sprinkled over your chips. Be careful because sometimes they give you too much.

E. If you have trouble getting off to sleep, don’t panic. There are plenty of healthy, low fat alternatives to pills to help you nod off. Why not try a glass of warm skimmed milk, or even a cup of camomile tea? These natural and low-fat drinks will help you to get asleep. They can also relax you after a difficult day.

F. Every British town has Indian or Chinese restaurants. There are more Chinese takeaways than there are fish and chips shops in the UK. But most people are eating curry Curry is now Britain’s most popular meal because the majority of British people like spicy food. But British people like food from other countries, too. They say it allows them to understand other cultures better.

G. Eating carbohydrate-rich foods like bread, cereal, rice and pasta causes the production of serotonin, which makes us feel calm. Fruit and vegetables also set off the production of this chemical. Milk and cheese are also useful. The next time you feel stressed, try a little piece of bread and a glass of milk and you’ll feel better in no time.

Lesson in humility

I was nine when this started. That was in 1964, the year my mother left us. Chess led me to Horatio — chess and my father and my absent mother and the fact that on that day, I broke the rule about not showing what you feel. My form-master of that year at the private day-school I went to was a chess enthusiast. He explained the rules to us, he encouraged us to play. He was kind to me and I admired him, more than admired: I wanted to be where he was. I suppose I was more than usually responsive to kindness just at that time. To please him I tried hard to be good at chess and I discovered that I was good. I had a natural talent, the master said.

I joined the school chess club. I took part in tournaments and distinguished myself. Shining at few things, for a brief season I shone at chess. I studied the game, I read the accounts of historic encounters, the ploys of long-dead masters, and I played them out alone. I would set out the pieces at random, then sweep them off and try to replace them from memory. At night, I would picture the chess board, go through the moves of some legendary end-game and find consolation.

A colleague of my father was there one Sunday afternoon — my father was a senior official at the Treasury. «Your father tells me you are quite a chess-player.” On his reddish face an indulgent look. «At least by his own report,” my father said with a sarcastic smile. He seemed to suggest I had boasted. Perhaps I had. “Not up to your level, Henry, not yet.» Henry, Harry, Humphrey. A chessplayer ot note. Fancy a game, young man?

We played and I won. He still had half his pieces on the board when l checkmated him. I leasure in victory, expectation of praise — face and voice were not yet practiced enough, I suppose I showed my feelings too clearly. My father looked at me, but uttered no word. He went out, came back with a book from his study, brought it over for me to see. “Look here,” he said, the colleague meanwhile looking on. “Look at these people here.”

He had opened the book roughly in the middle. There were two faces, one on either side: William Pitt the Younger and Horatio Nelson. Neither name meant anything to me at the time. Later, ot course, I knew them tor close contemporaries -Horatio was a year older and died three months earlier.

“Take a good look,” my father said. “These two men saved our country, they had reason to be pleased with themselves.”

He meant it for my benefit or so I like to think. He did not want me to be jubilant in victory, to overrate small achievements. He wanted to inspire me with worthy ambitions. But in his mannei and tone I sensed displeasure; he was not pleased at my success, it had disturbed his sense of the natural order.

My interest in chess did not long survive that day, the lesson in humility proved the death-blow to it. I continued to play during what was left of the term, but my heart was not in it, I lost the appetite for victory, my game fell off. In the autumn, Monty and I were sent away to boarding school and I never played chess again.

You have received an email message from your English-speaking pen-friend David:

From: [email protected]

To: [email protected]

Subject: Welcome

…Thank you for the book you sent me about the Lyceum years of Pushkin and his friends. I’m glad it was in English. My elder sister is reading it now. Isn’t it amazing that all the 10-year-old boys could read, write and speak French before they got to the Lyceum?! Was home education typical for all kids under 10 in Russia in the 19th century? Would you like to study in a boarding school like Pushkin’s Lyceum?

Next week I am planning to apply to a University…

Write an email to David .

In your message answer her questions, ask 3 questions about the University he is going to apply to.

Write 100—140 words.

Remember the rules of email writing.

Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease. Mental is about how people think and feel. Social talks about how people live with other people. It is about family, work, school, and friends. Physical fitness refers to good body health. It is the result of regular exercise, proper diet and nutrition, and proper rest. A person who is physically fit will be able to walk or run without getting breathless and they will be able to carry out the activities of everyday living and not need help. How much each person can do will depend on their age and whether they are a man or woman. A physically fit person usually has a normal weight for their height. A taller person can be heavier and still be fit. If a person is too heavy or too thin for their height it may affect their health.
