In 2019, all students in grade 9 will be required to receive admission to the final exams. To do this, on February 13, 2019, they will have to receive a “credit” at the final interview.

In 2019, all graduates will have to pass 4 OGEs: 2 compulsory (OGE in Russian language and mathematics) and 2 elective exams. The scores for each of the four OGEs will be converted into grades. Compliance scores will be announced on the eve of the exams. On the Federal Portal "Russian Education" official information on how to translate primary OGE scores in evaluations. Please note that the numbers are RECOMMENDATIONS. The certificate usually contains average between the grade for the OGE and the annual mark in the subject. Points for the OGE will directly affect whether graduates of the 9th grade will be able to apply for a place in the 10th profile class.

If a student receives a “deuce” in at least one exam, then he will not be able to receive a certificate until he retakes the OGE again for a satisfactory result (that is, he overcomes the minimum score threshold). If a student receives one or two "deuces" at the OGE, then he will be able to rewrite each exam twice - in reserve days and in the additional period. If a student receives unsatisfactory results in 3 or 4 OGE, then he will be able to retake the exams only in September. In case of a successful retake, each graduate receives a certificate (even if he retakes in September).

Changes in the KIMs of the OGE in English in 2019

Clarifications have been made to the assessment criteria for task No. 33 (personal letter):

1. The answer to task 33 (personal letter) is evaluated according to the criteria K1-K4 (the maximum number of points is 10).

2. When a student receives 0 points according to the criterion "Solution of a communicative task", the answer to task 33 is estimated at 0 points.

3. If the volume of the letter is less than 90 words, then the answer to the task is estimated at 0 points. If the volume is more than 132 words, then only 120 words are subject to verification, i.e. that part of a personal letter that corresponds to the required volume.

4. When determining the compliance of the volume of the submitted work with the requirements, all words are considered, from the first word to the last, including auxiliary verbs, prepositions, articles, particles. In a personal letter, the address, date, signature are also counted.

Greetings, my dear readers.

I know that Russian-speaking students are insanely afraid of passing oral exams. BUT oral part OGE on English language seems completely unfeasible (not to mention). But believe me, proper and timely preparation is all you need to make sure you get the highest score on the test. Therefore, today we are waiting for complete analysis oral part, as well as examples of tasks with answers.

By the way, I recently started doing analysis of OGE tasks in English in video . Practice with me!

What is it and what has changed in recent years

The oral part of the test takes only 15 minutes! But in 15 minutes you have to show everything you are capable of. You will be tested for everything: pronunciation and speech speed, ability to understand questions and give a quick and clear answer to them, your ability to conduct an unprepared speech for 2 minutes.

You will have to cope with as many as three tasks (there were two before): you will need to read the text aloud, answer the dialogue questions, and also make a monologue on the topic based on the plan (they used to give a picture as a support). It seems that everything is completely different from what it was only 6-7 years ago.

Let's start with the oral part

The oral part consists, as I said, of 3 parts, which in total take 15 minutes, of which 6 minutes go directly to the answer, and the rest - to preparation. All tasks go one after another, without pauses. Therefore, it is important to practice doing all three oral tasks one after the other. While making time for yourself.

  • Part 1 - reading a passage of text.

The task seems easy, right? Especially when you consider that you are given 1.5 minutes to read beforehand. And after that - another 2 minutes to read aloud. You must read clearly, understandably, with the correct pronunciation of sounds and the correct intonation. And you only have 5 chances to make a mistake. After that - points are reduced (that is, you will receive 1 or 0 points from 2 possible!).

Let's take an example(click on image to enlarge).

First of all, pay attention to reading long and short sounds. In red, I underlined the words with long and short [i].

d i fferent,l i ved,h i dden, - here percussive sounds are read as short

p eo ple, bel ie ved,n ee ded, - and here they are read as long

In blue, I underlined the words that have a short and a long [u]

r oo m, t oo ls - here the sound is long

c oul d, p u t - here it is short

In green, I highlighted the words where you can notice the sound [a], but again, they will differ in longitude:

d ar k - long sound

h u nters - short sound

A very important point here is the correct pronunciation of interdental sounds ( words in the text are underlined in yellow), which children so often like to replace with Russian [v, f] or.

sympa th etic, th ey - tongue clamped with teeth and go!

In the yellow boxes, I placed the phrases on which I want to show the differences in intonation. In the first case, we see a special question - and in these types of questions, the intonation should be descending, in other words, it should fall. Listen

The second phrase is an introductory construction, which, firstly, must be separated from the rest of the sentence by a pause, and secondly, read with rising intonation. Listen.

Hope you hear the difference! Observe, my dears, and those who evaluate your answer will give you the highest score with great pleasure!

I also suggest watching and listening to a reading of an excerpt from the FIPI website. There I also comment on some words:

  • Part 2 - answers to questions.

The task of this part is a dialogue where you will have to answer 6 questions. This part of the test was created in order to check how quickly, correctly and competently a student can use foreign speech.

For each answer to a question, you can get 1 point. If you answer too short where open answers are required, or make a lot of lexical or grammatical errors, you do not get your point for the answer.

What I can advise you is to learn a couple of cliches for those answers where you need to express your opinion or give advice. For example:

In my opinion … - In my opinion…

From my point of view…-Cmypointsvision

I believe … - I think …

I would recommend … - I would advise)…

Youd better do ... you better do ...

You should do.... You should do...

In addition, it is important to answer clearly the question posed, without going into the jungle and follow the grammatical rules!

So, an example of a task in the format of a question and answer:

How old are you?

I"m 15 years old.

What's your hobby and why are you interested in it?

- My hobby is swimming. I "m interested in it because I adore swimming - it makes me cheerful and confident.

How much time a week do you spend on your hobby?

- As a rule, I spend on it about 4 hours a week.

What hobbies are the most popular with teenagers nowadays?

- From my point of view the most popular hobbies with teenagers now are computer games and some extreme sports like snowboarding.

Why do you think people take up hobbies?

- In my opinion people take up hobbies in order to find new friends, to get some new skills and just to feel happier.

What would you advise a person who wants to start a hobby?

You should find a hobby which will give you pleasure. If I were you I would go to the nearest sports club and find out what they offer...

In this video, I analyze in great detail the task from the FIPI website: 6 questions and possible answers to them in the oral part of the OGE in English. I recommend to those who are preparing:

  • Part 3 - a monologue based on the points of the plan.

You will be given 1.5 minutes to prepare this task, and 2 minutes to complete it. Before your eyes you will have a plan consisting of 4 points that you want to reveal. This task is difficult, to be honest, but it is estimated in whole 7 points.

By the way, quite recently a picture was offered for this task - for clarity. But they decided to remove it. Now only the points of the plan and imagination will help you.

Let's see an example:

-Why do people like traveling.

-What way of traveling do you prefer and why.

-Whether you prefer to be a package tourist or to be a backpacking traveler. why.

-What travel gives you.

My answer would be:

“And now I am going to talk about travelling.

People may travel for different reasons. For one group of people it may be the chance to spend their vacation at a completely different place from the one they are used to. For others it may be the way of living - their lifestyle.

Personally I prefer sight-seeing type of travelling. As I am keen on history I cannot stand the idea of ​​not visiting all the historical places in Europe or Asia. What is more, I prefer traveling by bus as it allows me to spend a lot of time on the road and think about everything I need. Besides, it is much cheaper than traveling by plane.

According to this I may conclude that I am an absolutely backpacking traveler. The idea that you can spend one day in one city and move to another part of the country the following day appeals to me very much.

In the end I would like to say that traveling broadens our minds and gives us an amazing experience we will never forget. Besides, you will be left with unforgettable memories. What can be better?

I also have a video analysis of the monologue for you. In addition, in this video I talk about the criteria by which the student's answer is evaluated. There are links to the right places in the description of the video so that you can easily navigate to them.

How to prepare

Preparing for an oral exam is hard work. But finding a simulator for it will not be so difficult. I can recommend the following guides:

  • « English language. OGE. oral part. Author - Radislav Milrud.
  • Benefit Series forward, dedicated to the practice of this part of the exam .

The training tasks in these textbooks are selected specifically for the level, and their number is enough for you to practice. What is even more important is that you can buy them in any bookstore (including online stores).

An easier option and, of course, more efficient is to use the help of professionals personally - for example, at Foxford School . There you can find a really great teacher who can prepare a student for the exam individually or in a mini-group on a special online platform. Everything is like in school - theory, practice, homework and its verification - only here the approach is more individual! Not a single question will remain unanswered.

Do not forget, my dears, that I am constantly sharing new tips on how to improve your English and how to better prepare for the exam. Subscribe to my blog newsletter and be the first to know how to succeed on the test. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments!

In addition, I can help you on a paid basis - more details on the page

Until then, I say goodbye.

We suggest taking another test (test 3) to assess your level of English and see if you can pass the exam in English.

B: Fine, but it was a long one.
A: I bet it was. The flight from Australia can't have been short. And you arrived almost an hour later than was scheduled.
B: Yeah. It was because of the delay in Hong Kong. The weather was awful…
A: I see. But it's all over and you're here at last. Let me help you with your luggage.
B: Thanks.

Dialogue B
A: Excuse me, can I have the key to room 209?
B: Yes, here it is.
A: And one more thing.
B: Yes?
A: I'm checking out tomorrow at noon. Can I leave my suitcase in the luggage room till 5 or 6 pm?
B: Yes, you can, no problem.

Dialogue C
A: I'm sorry, but food and drinks are not allowed in the reading room.
B: Sorry, I just wanted to have a sandwich… but I’m already putting it back into my bag. By the way, where can I find something on the history of aviation? I'm writing a report on it.
A: The books on that topic are displayed over there, next to the exit table. But if you need something specific, I would advise you to use our electronic catalog. It's there, in the corner of the room.
B: Yes, I will. thank you.

Dialogue D
A: Excuse me, I'm looking for a Sports Goods shop…

A: Thank you. I need a good sports bag.
B: To the ground floor then. You can't miss it - it's next to the cafeteria and there is a large poster advertising sports gear.

You will hear five statements (A, B, C, D, E). Match each speaker's statements with the statements given in list 1-6. Use each statement from list 1-6 only once. There is one extra statement in the assignment.

play Listening task 2

1. The speaker describes his / her dream job.
2. The speaker explains what jobs are most popular with students.
3. The speaker talks about difficulties in making a career choice.
4. The speaker talks about his/her personal work experience.
5. The speaker believes that teenagers should earn their pocket money themselves.
6. The speaker explains how to find a job for summer.

A-3
B-1
C-6

E-4

Speaker A
When I was a small child, I felt irritated when adults asked me about what I wanted to become in the future. They are still asking. It's irritating, probably because I don't know the answer. I have no idea what job is right for me and I'm afraid of making the wrong choice. Dad says that I should do different summer or part-time jobs in order to understand what I want. And what if I don't understand it then? I don't mind working in the summer but I don't know what temporary job to apply for.

Speaker B
I've always known what I want to do as a career. No, I'm not making ambitious plans about becoming an ingenious scientist, or an astronaut, or a famous actor. I want to work with small children as there's nothing better than helping the curious explore the world. Working in an infant school would be very rewarding. It wouldn't actually be a job for me - it would be a privilege because I'd be enjoying every minute of it. If you say it would be difficult - yes, it would be, but it would never get boring.

Speaker C
Lots of teenagers want to get a summer job but not everyone gets one. The most common mistake is that they start looking for a job when the holidays are in full swing. The job search takes time and you should start it months before the holidays. First, make up a list of jobs you would like to do, then find out about the requirements and contact the employers. If you suit each other, leave your information and discuss the date when you are ready to start.

Speaker D
There are usually lots of opportunities for young people to earn money for things like snacks and drinks, outings and accessories. There are always plenty of vacancies for seasonal workers, waiters, couriers, cleaners etc. Being a full-time student is not an excuse to avoid getting a job. I really don’t think that teenagers can understand the value of money and appreciate their families’ care and support until they start working themselves.

Speaker E
I think that doing temporary and part-time jobs does young people lots of good. I had my first summer job at the age of fifteen. I worked as a pizza seller in a fast-food cafe for two months. I still remember how difficult it was - there were always lots of people, it was hot and my legs and arms hurt. Since then I've worked as a courier, as a seasonal worker (picking apples and cherries) and as a landscape worker.

You will hear a conversation between two classmates. In tasks 1-6, circle the number 1, 2 or 3 corresponding to your choice of answer.

Sally: Are you OK Zach? Hey Zach!

Zach: Oh, it's you, Sally. I was daydreaming.

Sally: You were sleeping, not daydreaming! Did you play computer games all night again?

Zach: Yes, how did you guess?

Sally: That's easy. Your eyes are red, your reactions are slow, and you look sleepy! And your homework isn't done.

Zach: OK, you're right. Just a new game. I couldn't quit before I reached the fifth level. You wouldn't understand as you don't care about computers.

Sally: Why, I do, but I'm not a geek. I have more important things to do than play games for hours.

Zach: Really? And what are you busy with all day long?

Sally: Well, I start with walking my dog. At 8 o'clock sharp I have to be at the picking up point for the school bus. Mum used to drive me to school, but now she's very busy with my little brother, so I have to go by bus.

Zach: I see. Babies are always trouble.

Sally: No, not at all! He's a little darling and I love him! Twice a week, when I don't take my music lessons, I babysit for my mum so that she can read the economic news . She's got a university degree and worked for a financial firm but she had to quit it because of my brother's poor health. She's planning to go back to her career and has to be well informed about everything.

Zach: Yeah, that's important to stay in the profession. And it's nice of you to help her so much. But how do you manage to do your own lessons then?

Sally: The main thing is not to put off the assignments till the very last moment.

Zach: I always put them off...

Sally: And it's important to start with the most difficult subjects - I always do Maths first. Languages ​​and other humanities are easier so French goes the last.

Zach: I see. I find Maths the most difficult, too. And I'm really impressed with your ability to plan your day and stick to the plan. I never do anything on time… I even had to give up my guitar lessons… Do you play an instrument?

Sally: The drums. Mum wanted me to choose the piano, but I think drums are cooler.

Zach: They certainly are. There're lots of people who play the piano but very few drummers. By the way, my friends are looking for a drummer for their band. Are you interested?

Sally: Well…, yes. What sort of music do they play?

Sally: I see. I prefer pop music too. We learn about other music styles in music classes, like jazz, rock and classical, but you can't dance to them.

Zach: True. I can introduce you to the guys. You'll really need my recommendation as no girl's ever played with them. It's always been an all-boy pop band.

Sally: It won't be any more.

Zach: We'll see.

READING

Read the texts and match between texts A-G and headings 1-8. Record your answers in a table. Use each number only once. There is one extra title in the assignment.

1. My accommodation in Rome
2. New friends
3. Getting the job
4. The working day
5. Plans for next summer
6.Language experience
7. The top tourist attraction
8. General impressions of the country

A) I’ve just returned from Italy, and it was the most beautiful working holiday anyone could dream of. Yes, I saw the Colosseum with my own eyes! It was built in the first century AD - the amphitheater could house as many as 50,000 people. It's difficult to imagine the gladiators fighting there and the public watching the cruel show. There were also fights with lions. Fortunately, there are no lions in the Colosseum now - only cats. And there are a lot of them!

B) The Colosseum was the first thing I wanted to see in Rome, but not the only one that impressed me. I used my camera a lot - Italy is a country with a great cultural heritage. Apart from the views, Italy is a country of delicious food - I’ve never eaten such gorgeous pizzas! I’d have certainly put on some weight if I hadn’t had to walk such a lot - we were saving on transport because Italy is an expensive country.

C) It took us thirty-five minutes every morning to get from the hostel where we were staying to the pizzeria we were working. Our room was very small, it had a poor view, just the house opposite, but that wasn't a problem - we didn't spend much time there anyway. We had only the basics in our room - two beds, hangers for clothes, a little table and one chair. There was a laundry downstairs and a shared kitchen to prepare meals.

D) As for the kitchen, we didn't use it much - we ate at work! Our working day started at 9 am and lasted till 9 pm. We had a long siesta (a break between two and five in the afternoon) which we used for sightseeing in spite of the heat. And in the evening there were usually lots of customers and we had to be quick and attentive so as not to confuse their orders. We felt absolutely exhausted when we came home.

E) Anyway we felt privileged to have got the job. It was Anna, my best friend, who suggested working holidays in Italy. She found the vacancies and sent our CVs to the manager. At first I didn't know what to say as I wasn't sure I wanted to work in summer. But on the other hand, the idea of ​​earning my own money and seeing Italy was very attractive.

F) I'm glad I agreed to Anna's suggestion - we enjoyed living in a new country and meeting new people. Italians are very sociable and easy-going. Our fellow workers showed us lots of interesting places and it was fun to explore the country together. Anna and I really hope that they'll come to Britain one day and we'll be able to show them our country too. We are going to keep in touch.

G) We didn't know Italian when we went there. Some people in the pizzeria spoke English and they helped us a lot. Two weeks later we were able to understand what the customers were asking us about and we spoke basic Italian to them. Italian is beautiful - I like how it sounds and it's not at all difficult. We plan to go on learning it in case we want to work in the pizzeria again.

The Dolphins Team

The Dolphins is a relatively new beach service that has been in operation for three years so far, and we are growing fast. The tourist business in the region is booming. More and more people are coming to the Southern Beach every year and our services are in great demand.
We provide a variety of services to the beachgoers. We lend them beach equipment like parasols and beach chairs, we arrange boat tours, snorkelling and diving expeditions. However, first, and foremost, The Dolphins help swimmers who are in danger. We've got a highly professional rescue team. Last year we were awarded first prize in the national lifeguard competition in which the best teams of the country took part. Being a lifeguard is a job, not entertainment as some people may think. Anyone who wants to join us has to remember that the duty of a lifeguard is not only to be on watch and save careless holidaymakers but to prevent any dangerous situation for them.
Not only excellent physical condition but strong personal skills are necessary as beachgoers are not always very cooperative. Everyone knows that lifeguards fly flags of different colors: the green one indicates that the sea is calm and there’s no danger for swimmers; the yellow flag means that the weather conditions are not very good - swimmers should be very careful and not go too deep. The red flag indicates that the situation is potentially dangerous and swimming is prohibited. It doesn't necessarily mean a storm, it could be a strong current, water pollution, the danger of marine animals attacking or something else. Unfortunately, some people ignore it and go into the water anyway. The beach patrol are not the police - we can't arrest people for disobedience. All we can do is educate people and get them to behave in a civilized way.
This is actually the main reason why we decided to set up our Summer Lifeguard School - we want to make the beach a safer and more civilized place. The school is for children from ten to seventeen who want to spend summer on the beach and learn some lifeguard skills. Anyone who meets the age requirement is admitted. Our instructors will teach them the basic skills of water safety and basic emergency procedures, the language of semaphore (that is how to use flags to transmit a message), how to avoid sunstroke and how to swim in the waves of the sea. Our open-air classes will be useful to everyone. Reckless divers and swimmers will understand that no one, no matter how sporty they are, can be absolutely free of risk in the sea. Those who are afraid to step into the water will learn to control their fear and will learn to swim (under the very close supervision of our instructors).
On completing the summer course, the children will be awarded our Summer Lifeguard School Certificate and we hope some of them will join The Dolphins in the future. To do so, they will have to wait until they turn 18 and gain the Professional Lifeguard Certificate.

Section 2 (Reading the OGE 2018)

Section 2(tasks for reading) contains 9 tasks for understanding the texts read. Recommended time to complete this section is 30 minutes.

Methodological hint

  • Read the headings, translate them, try to find what they have in common (topic, problem, situation, keyword, etc.) and how they differ from each other (different aspects of the topic, problem, attitude to the problem, etc.) .
  • Highlight key words in the process of familiarization with headings.
  • Try to predict what the text will be about, its main content, pick up the words / phrases that are necessary to disclose this topic.
  • Carefully read each of the proposed texts, not paying attention to unfamiliar words and expressions, i.e. without going into details.
  • Try to formulate the main idea of ​​the text on your own, then choose the answer that is closest in content from the proposed options and mark it. If it is difficult to immediately determine which heading fits the text, you can skip this moment and read the next passage, then return to that place.
  • Check whether the choice of one or another correspondence is justified, whether other correspondences are correctly established.
  • Make sure the extra heading is chosen correctly.
  • If the text seems incomprehensible, set it aside. Match headings to other texts and act by elimination, having 2 texts, the chance to even guess the correct answer is much higher.
  • Make sure you don't use the same letter twice.
  • Record the final answer in the table after the assignment.
  • When reading the text, determine the main idea for yourself, separate the main from the secondary, ignore unnecessary information and unfamiliar words that do not interfere with the understanding of the main content.

Task 9

Read the texts and match between the texts and their headings: for each text marked with letters A–G, select the appropriate heading marked with numbers 1–8. Use each number only once. There is one extra title in the assignment.
