It is common knowledge that tourists visiting Moscow understand what Russia is. However, some people have a different vision of the situation and make sure that to know Russia well you should visit only Moscow. To my mind, I am certain that Russia is a very large country with a lot of history and culture around the whole country and it would be difficult to understand them visiting only Moscow.
Traditionally, we will divide the essay into five paragraphs.
Paragraph 1. Introduction There should be a statement of the problem. Since the statement of the problem has already been stated in the assignment, your task is to correctly retell it.
It is to REPRESENT, not to paraphrase.
Instead of the banal “Some people think, . Others think. ” you can use: Some people claim that . while others argue that.
Ps: and the program crashed on my oral part, I had to wait for a technical specialist, it didn’t add peace either
I have a similar situation!I always prepared well, but now I'm just in shock! listening was unsettling, some words were incomprehensible, speech was quiet (some tasks raised doubts about the choice of answer. I wish us good results!
Apparently, as in the oral part, everyone again has the same option
I counted on 90+, now I understand that I flew by again. this is dishonest. these topics are clearly not at the school level.

People have enjoyed sports for thousands of years. Children, men and women play sports both for pleasure and for challenge. Every sport involves a physical skill. Every sport has a set of rules that the players of the sport follow. In some sports one person competes against other individuals. Examples of these sports include boxing, tennis and so on. In many games one team competes against the other team.
People can go in for winter and summer sports. Summer sports are typical for warmer countries. Those who live in regions that experience cold winters have long enjoyed ice skating, skiing, and sledding. These activities have grown immensely in popularity over the years. Today thousands of resorts cater to the winter tourist trade, and millions of people each year take winter sports vacations.

task 3.
Imagine that these are photos from your photo album. Choose one photo to present to your friend. You will have to start speaking in 1.5 minutes and will speak for not more than 2 minutes (12–15 sentences). In your talk remember to speak about:
- where and when the photo was taken
- what/who is in the photo
- what is happening
- why do you keep the photo in your album
- why did you decide to show the picture to your friend
You have to talk continuously, starting with: “I’ve chosen photo number …”
Photo 1 Photo 2 Photo3
I "ve chosen photo number 2. (Be sure to start your answer with this phrase, after selecting the photo number).
First of all, I should admit that winter is my favorite season and I try to spend a lot of time outdoors when the weather is not very frosty and cold. So this picture was taken on a wonderful winter day in the local park. I usually go there with my friends at weekends.
Can you guess who is in the photo? Right, in the foreground of the picture you can see my best friends Dasha and Nastya. They are having fun playing snowballs. They are both in a good mood and laughing. In spite of the fact that it is winter, they are wearing light clothes. Nastya is wearing a red tracksuit and a hat that her granny has knitted for her. Dasha prefers to wear jeans wherever she goes. Also, she's got a trendy white hat.
The ground is covered with plenty of fresh snow. In the background of the picture you can see bare trees which, I hope, don't spoil the view.
You know I keep this photo in my album because we are school-leavers and soon we’ll go to study in different towns that’s why I try to capture the best moments we spend together which will remind me of our friendship and school years.
I decided to show this picture to you because I want you to learn how cute my friends are and to tell you how much I will miss them after leaving school (how much they mean for me).
That's all I wanted to say. (phrase for examiner)
Task 4.
Study the two photographs. In 1.5 minutes be ready to compare and contrast the photographs:
- give a brief description of the photos (action, location)
- say what the pictures have in common
- say in what way the pictures are different
- say which of the ways of taking care of your health presented in the pictures you'd prefer
- explain why
You will speak for not more than 2 minutes (12–15 sentences). You have to talk continuously.
Now I will compare and contrast these two photos.
I’d like to stress out right from the beginning that lots of young people nowadays are concerned about a healthy lifestyle. And these two photos prove that. (opening phrase)
So the theme which relates these photos is the way people take care of their health.
Let me start with the first picture which shows young people who are doing some exercises in the gym at the moment. They are walking on the treadmills. There is a screen in front of each person. I think it might be very convenient to watch the records of your walking speed, pulse and number of loosing calories. It seems to me that they are having their training in the evening when their working day is over.
As for the second picture you can see a young girl jogging in the city park. She is wearing a nice coral T-shirt and dark sports trousers. I guess the action is taking place in a warm summer morning because you can see bright spells of the sun on the emerald green grass and trees. The girl is very slender and looks very happy.
As I've already mentioned both pictures young people who are taking up sports to be in a good shape (to feel strong and healthy). And this is the main similarity between them. Also both pictures show us cheerful people who really enjoy doing sports (who are doing sports with pleasure).
The National English Examination is one of the options for a selective foreign language exam. Its structure, complexity and content is no different from German, French or Spanish, which you can also choose to complete. At the same time, it is worth noting the undoubted popularity of the English language - official statistics show that about 9% of graduates annually want to take it. Examination in a foreign language cannot be called simple. For example, we can cite the following fact: two years ago, about 70,000 students took the English language, while only 11 students scored the maximum number of points (100)!
English remains the most popular elective language subject

Exam Changes
Recall that since last year, the foreign language exam has become much more difficult - in addition to the test part, which provides for written answers, the Ministry of Education decided to introduce an additional oral part. The explanatory note from the Ministry says that the student is free to decide whether he will pass "speaking", but it is quite natural that without this component, one cannot count on the maximum number of points. Written and oral testing in English are taken in two days.
80 points were assigned to the written part; for speaking you will get another 20 General information
The duration of the written examination in a foreign language is 180 minutes, during which the future applicant must complete a significant number of tasks - 46. The examination ticket consists of four components:
- Listening, which contains 9 tasks (as practice shows, students should not devote more than 80-90 minutes of time to this part);
- Reading, in which the graduate is asked to complete 9 tasks. The first part, which includes 2 tasks, is quite simple - you need to be able to establish a correspondence. The second part (that is, 7 more tasks) involves choosing the correct answer. Students should not spend more than half an hour on this part of the ticket;
- The section on grammar and vocabulary includes the largest number of tasks - 20. The first part consists of 13 tasks, providing a short answer. The remaining 7 tasks involve choosing and writing down the correct answer. The implementation of this section is optimally invested in 40 minutes of time;
- Writing, which consists of 2 tasks, which is a small written work. The first task is to write a personal letter (100-140 words). The second provides for a short written discussion on a specific topic and should consist of 200-250 words. It is not recommended to spend more than 70-80 minutes on this work. You can first do this type of work on a draft, but do not get carried away with a lengthy presentation of thoughts. If you do not have enough time to rewrite the tasks cleanly, your draft will not be graded.
The block called "speaking" consists of four components. Students will be asked to read a short passage of text, formulate questions for an interview, make up a story based on the image and give a comparative assessment of the two events captured in the photo.
How are points distributed?
When passing the written part of the exam, the student can score a maximum of 80 points. "Speaking" allows you to score up to 20 maximum points. Recall also that since 2015 the minimum score for this discipline has been increased and is 22 points.
At the exam in English you have to complete 46 tasks in 180 minutes How to prepare?
Take advantage of the opportunity we offer and download a demo version of the trial English test for yourself (see the beginning of the article). So you can feel the atmosphere of the exam, assess your current readiness and tighten all weaknesses in advance. Please note that some of the tasks are formulated in English, so take care of their translation in advance so as not to fall into a stupor in the national exam.
Do not forget about the importance of listening preparation - listening to information is not as easy as it seems. Oral speech requires no less serious preparation, because you can write well, but you will not speak well without careful pronunciation. Download some easy-to-understand series or movies in English.
For starters, you can look for a version with subtitles. Gradually complicate the task - start listening to audiobooks (or excerpts from them). Pick up pictures from the Internet on various topics and try to describe them. At first, you will pick up words for a long time and look into the dictionary, but over time it will become easier for you to speak and understand foreign speech.
