- Стратегия ответа на вопрос в устной части ЕГЭ 2023

Что НУЖНО делать, чтобы получить один балл за вопрос в устной части ЕГЭ 2023
- дать ТОЧНЫЙ ответ на заданный вопрос
- дать ПОЛНЫЙ ответ на вопрос
- ответы должны содержать не менее двух фраз, т.е. быть развернутыми, полными и точными. Ответы, данные ОДНОЙ фразой, ОДНИМ словом или словосочетанием, не засчитываются, т.е. не следует использовать в качестве ответа неполные предложения, эллиптические конструкции типа Not many или Sure. Без продолжения, без развертывания они не будут засчитаны как правильный ответ;
- некоторые реплики интервьюера могут содержать два-три вопроса, надо ответить на два/три в целом двумя-тремя фразами, т.е. участник экзамена отвечает двумя-тремя фразами на слова интервьюера независимо от того, один или два вопроса содержит реплика интервьюера, после которой следует пауза для ответа.
Что НЕ НУЖНО делать в устной части ЕГЭ 2023
- перефразировать вопрос;
- стараться использовать сложную лексику;
- стараться продемонстрировать богатый словарный запас;
- стараться говорить больше;
- переспрашивать, задавать вопросы;
- здороваться;
- отвечать отдельными словами;
- делать слишком большие паузы между предложениями;
- не делать ЭЛЕМЕНТАРНЫХ лексико-грамматических ошибок и/или фонетических ошибок. Ниже Вы найдете список этих элементарных ошибок.
Стратегия ответа на вопрос в устной части ЕГЭ 2023
Чтобы получить заветный один балл, используйте такой алгоритм.
- Поймите и запомните вопрос. Можете повторить его про себя. Времени будет достаточно.
- Если вопрос один, то можно ответить такими же словами и добавить еще одно предложение, чтобы получилось два предложения, как это требуют критерии оценивания. Можно добавить пример, причину или деталь. Повтор лексики не оценивается. Важен только ответ.
Например:
Вопрос: What is your favourite food?
Ответ: My favourite food is chicken. I like fried chicken.
- Если 2-3 вопроса, как это было в ЕГЭ 2022, то нужно ответить на все вопросы двумя-тремя предложениями. Самое главное без ошибок и чтобы ответы были четкими и полными.
Например, вопрос из ЕГЭ 2022:
Вопрос: What is your favourite food? Why do you like it so much? Can you cook it?
Ответ: My favourite food is chicken. I like it because it’s tasty. I can cook it.
- Не забыть ответить на вопрос why, если есть. Часто бывает, что ребята забывают ответить на этот вопрос. Отвечает на основной, а про why забывают.
Например:
Вопрос: Do you think it’s important to know foreign languages? Why yes or no?
Ответ: It’s important to know foreign languages. It broadens the horizons and helps to find a well-paid job.
- Если поняли, что дали неверный ответ, то можно исправить ошибку, будет оцениваться последний ответ.
- Внимательно следить за тем, в каком времени задан вопрос.
Например:
What Russian cities/regions have you visited? и соответственно отвечаем в этом времени. I have visited a lot of Russian cities. I have been to Moscow, St.Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod.
Или, например: вопрос в прошедшем времени Did you travel much when you were a child?
Ответ: I travelled much when I was a child. My parents were fond of it.
О чем спрашивают. Какие вопросы бывают на ЕГЭ
- О себе;
- О России;
- Столица;
- Свой регион (расположение, достопримечательности);
- Знаменитые ученые, писатели России;
- Люди, которые внесли большой вклад.
На какие вопросы следует обратить внимание
- Бывают вопросы в единственном и множественном числе.
Например: What famous Russian scientists do you know? Здесь нужно назвать как минимум два ученых, потому что вопрос во множественном числе.
- Бывают вопросы на предпочтения.
Например: What books by Russian writers would you recommend to read and why? Здесь можно назвать одну книгу.
- Также, есть вопросы на факты: что я знаю и вопросы на рассуждения: что я думаю.
Если у Вас возникают сложности при выполнении этого задания, приходите ко мне на уроки, смогу помочь в подготовке к этому заданию и к ЕГЭ в целом.

В этой статье я расскажу об умениях, которые нужны школьникам, чтобы успешно выполнить задания нового формата, типах упражнений, которые способствуют развитию этих умений, а также о возможной структуре и особенностях содержания ответов на новые задания ЕГЭ по английскому 2022.
Материал подготовил для читателей Skyteach Алексей Конобеев, кандидат педагогических наук, академический директор Skyeng, главный редактор издательства «Титул» и журнала «Английский язык в школе».
Весной 2021 года была опубликована перспективная модель ЕГЭ, содержащая значительные изменения в формате многих заданий экзамена. В августе 2021 года на сайте Федерального института педагогических измерений был размещен проект демоверсии ЕГЭ-2022. Изменения в демоверсии ЕГЭ-2022 касаются заданий устной и письменной частей экзамена, которые вызвали горячие обсуждения в учительской среде.
Другие важные статьи по теме:
- Подробно про новую модель задания 39 раздела «Письменная речь»
- ЕГЭ 2022 задание 40. Детальный разбор
- Новые задания ЕГЭ-2022 по английскому. Самое важное со стрима Конобеева
- ЕГЭ по английскому на 2022: какие изменения нас ждут?
- Готовый календарь подготовки к ЕГЭ и ОГЭ по месяцам
Новые задания в устной части ЕГЭ
Задание 1
Содержание и критерии его оценивания остались прежними. В перспективной модели ЕГЭ предполагается увеличить удельный вес этого задания: за него можно будет получить больше баллов.
Рекомендации по подготовке
Если ваши ученики сдают ЕГЭ не в 2022 году, а позднее, имеет смысл включить в уроки больше заданий на отработку чтения сложных слов и английской интонации:
- Для отработки чтения слов-исключений можно использовать стихотворение The Chaos, написанное голландским учителем и автором Gerard Nolst Trenité.
- Удобно использовать параллельно текст и его транскрипцию.
- Для отработки интонации хорошо подходит прием shadow reading, когда учащийся одновременно слушает, как диктор читает текст книги, и повторяет, стараясь воспроизвести интонацию диктора.
Note for Skyeng teachers
Для такой работы можно использовать аудиокниги, которых много в курсах Self-study от Skyeng. Аудиокниги используются разных жанров и уровней сложности: от А2 до С1. Напомним, что в ЕГЭ задания базового уровня относятся к уровню А2+, задания повышенного уровня — к уровню В1, а задания высокого уровня — В2 по CEFR, что можно учитывать при выборе аудиокниг для работы над интонацией и произношением.
Задание 2
В втором задании устной части в 2022 году уменьшилось количество вопросов, которые нужно задать на основе рекламы. Вместо прежних пяти осталось только четыре вопроса.
Экзаменуемый может получить по одному баллу за каждый верно заданный прямой вопрос.
«Верно заданный» в данном задании означает следующее: это вопрос о том, что говорится в опоре, и он направлен к автору рекламы. То есть принимаются вопросы, содержащие прямое обращение: “Do you offer accommodation?”, но не вопросы в третьем лице: “Do they offer accommodation?”, так как это не соответствует коммуникативной ситуации.
Рекомендации по подготовке
Это задание уйдет из ЕГЭ в ближайшие два-три года. Но уделить ему внимание стоит, потому что оно направлено на важное умение — задавать точные вопросы и получать нужную информацию.
Для тренировки можно использовать прием back-to-back interview, когда ученики работают в парах.
После предварительного знакомства с фактами из биографии известных личностей, ученики садятся спиной друг к другу. Один ученик будет играть роль знаменитости, а второй — интервьюера. «Знаменитость» вытягивает карточку с именем человека, чью роль он будет играть. Карточка также может содержать ключевые факты биографии. Задача интервьюера — задать вопросы так, чтобы как можно скорее выяснить, кто его собеседник.
Учитель может ограничить время или тип вопросов: можно задавать только прямые, общие или альтернативные. Такое умение полезно не только для отработки грамматической формы вопроса, но и для развития умений активного слушания.
Задание 3
Эта часть изменилась полностью и теперь обеспечивает преемственность с ОГЭ. В ОГЭ экзаменуемому нужно ответить на телефонный опрос, в ЕГЭ — ответить на пять вопросов интервью.
Вопросы интервью проверяют только владение английским языком, поэтому не требуют сообщать информацию, выходящую за рамки жизненного опыта ученика, например: “What part of Russia do you live in? What’s the weather like there in summer?”.
Рекомендации по подготовке
Есть ряд моментов, где ученики могут сделать ошибку.
— Ответы должны состоять минимум из двух фраз
Например: “I live in the Kaliningrad region. It is the most western part of Russia”.
Не принимаются ответы, состоящие из одной фразы: “Of course” или “At the seaside”. Если вопрос содержит дополнение “and why”, то в ответе надо дать обоснование. При этом если реплика интервьюера состоит из двух вопросов: “What sport do you prefer, and why?”, то на всю реплику достаточно ответить двумя-тремя фразами, то есть отвечать по две-три фразы на каждую часть вопроса не требуется.
— Время ответа на вопрос ограничено
Желательно научить школьников отвечать на вопросы быстро. Для этого можно использовать разного рода викторины и опросы в классе. Готовые викторины можно найти на сайте Random Trivia Generator.
Для опросов можно использовать готовые вопросы по темам, собранные читателями The Internet TESL Journal. Полный список тем можно найти в кодификаторе ЕГЭ: он размещен в одном архиве вместе с демоверсией экзамена на сайте ФИПИ.
В уроках Skyeng для тренировки такого умения также используется игра «колесо вопросов»: ученик вращает виртуальное колесо, как в «Поле чудес», и ему выпадают разнообразные вопросы по теме урока.
Дополнительный доход и гибкий график, стабильная нагрузка без бюрократии и поиска учеников. Присоединяйтесь к дружной команде и преподавайте от 12 часов в неделю. Подробности по ссылке: Skyeng
Задание 4
Самым трудным и по уровню сложности, и по необходимым умениям стало новое четвертое задание устной части. В нем требуется создать голосовое сообщение для друга, вместе с которым ученик работает над проектом. В сообщении нужно описать и сравнить две фотографии, которые можно использовать как иллюстрацию для проекта, а также высказать мнение о возможной проблеме и предложить пути ее решения.
Рекомендации по подготовке:
Логика выполнения этого задания может показаться неочевидной для неподготовленного ученика, поэтому важно точно объяснить структуру ответа:
1. Так как задана коммуникативная ситуация, необходимо поприветствовать друга и сказать, с какой целью создано сообщение, например: “Hi Nick, I’ve found some photos for our project about gadgets, and I’d like to discuss them with you”.
2. Кратко опишите фотографии. Постройте рассказ от общего к частному, например: “In each photo, there is a woman with a book”.
3. Назовите две детали и покажите их связь с темой проекта: “One woman is in a library, and she is holding a printed book. The second woman is probably at home, and she is reading an electronic book. Both photos illustrate how life is different with and without gadgets”. Важно, чтобы эти детали действительно имели отношение к теме проекта. Например, упомянуть одежду или цвет волос людей на фото будет недостаточно, так как эти детали не относятся к использованию гаджетов.
4. Сравните два фото, показав их отношение к теме проекта. Нужно показать одно-два различия: “The main difference between the two photos is that in the first picture, the woman is not using any gadgets to find or to read books. She is surrounded by many people who do not seem to be using any gadgets either. But the second woman is using a gadget — her e-book, and she looks happy in the comfort of her home”.
5. Потом надо показать преимущества и недостатки предмета, указанного в задании: “A printed book may be nice to read, and it does not need a battery, but it is heavier than an electronic book and often more expensive than an electronic file. An electronic book is a good gadget to have because it may contain many books at once and you can easily carry it with you”.
6. После этого мы возвращаемся к фотографиям и объясняем, как они относятся к теме проекта: “So these photos show that although life without gadgets can be pleasant, it is more convenient to use gadgets like electronic books. That’s why I think they can be used in our project”.
7. Высказываем мнение о проекте: “In my opinion, life without gadgets is poorer than life with gadgets. It is so because gadgets make life easier”.
8. Чтобы отразить ситуацию общения, нужно использовать любую подходящую завершающую фразу, например: “That’s what I wanted to discuss with you. Bye for now”.
Предложите ученикам такую опору:
Hi ______, I’ve found some photos for our project about ____and I’d like to discuss them with you.
In each photo, there is a ______________. One ______is in ______, and she/he is ___________. The second ________ is ________, and she/he is ___________. Both photos illustrate how ______________.
The main difference between the two photos is that in the first picture ________________. _______________. But the second __________________. _________________________.
A _________may be nice to ________, and it does not __________, but it is ________ than ____________ and ___________. An __________ is ___________ because ___________________ and __________________.
So these photos show that ____________________. That’s why I think they can be used in our project.
In my opinion, ___________, because ________________. That’s what I wanted to discuss with you. Bye for now.
Для дополнительной тренировки умений устной речи в формате ЕГЭ-2022 можно использовать единственное на сегодня пособие такого типа — Practise Speaking Н. А. Андрощук и В.Н. Баскаковой. Даже если в итоговой демоверсии произойдут некоторые изменения, тренировочные материалы в данном пособии помогут формировать у учеников нужные умения.

The first human carrying flight technology was the hot air balloon. While unmanned balloons have been around in some form for thousands of years, the first flight with people aboard was in 1782. The large balloon on top is called an “envelope”. It holds hot air created by a heat source known a burner. The burner creates an open flame by burning a mix of propane and air. Hot air balloons are capable of floating because the hot air inside the envelope has a lower density than the colder air outside. The top of the balloon usually has a vent which allows the pilot to control the speed of ascent or descent. Passengers typically stand in a basket beneath the envelope. While most envelopes have a standard balloon shape, others are designed to look like animals, cartoon characters and other fun objects.

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.

People have always told stories and legends to explain natural, but mysterious, occurrences such as the Northern Lights. The Vikings believed the Northern Lights were caused by the shining weapons of warriors. The Alaskan people thought the lights were the souls of salmon, deer and other animals. The Indians told the stories of giants living in the North and thought the lights were their torches.
The Northern Lights are actually caused by electrons from solar winds. They are attracted to the poles by the magnetic fields found there. They mix with gases in the atmosphere, which causes the gases to glow. The Northern Lights are most visible in the far north. They are typically green, purple, red or blue.

Japan is an island nation in East Asia, located in the North Pacific Ocean off the coast of the Asian continent. Japan comprises the four main islands in addition to numerous smaller islands. Tokyo is the country’s capital and largest city. Mountains dominate Japan’s landscape, covering 75 to 80 per cent of the country. Historically, the mountains were barriers to transportation, limiting the economic development of isolated areas. However, with the development of tunnels, bridges, and air transportation in the modern era, the mountains are no longer an obstacle. The Japanese have long celebrated the beauty of their mountains in art and literature, and today many mountain areas are preserved in national parks. Most of Japan’s people live on plains and lowlands found mainly along the lower courses of the country’s major rivers, on the lowest slopes of mountain ranges, and along the sea coast. This concentration of people makes Japan one of the world’s most crowded countries.

Since ancient times, humans have loved and cherished cats as their pets. Today more than 80 million cats reside in US homes, with an estimated three cats for every dog on the planet. Yet there is still a lot we don’t know about our feline friends – including what they think of their owners. After observing pet cats for several years, scientists have come to an intriguing conclusion: cats don’t really understand people the way dogs do. They tend to feel it is they who own their masters, not vice versa. On the contrary, dogs perceive people as being very different from themselves. As soon as they see a human, they change their behaviour. The way a dog plays with a human is completely different from the way it plays with a dog. Cats are independent creatures and they can easily change their owner without changing their habits.
