Эссе по иностранному языку требует качественного содержания и хорошей организационной структуры, а также грамотного языкового оформления.

Является одним из самых проблемных заданий при сдаче единого государственного экзамена. По сложности конкуренцию ему может составлять только аудирование. Поэтому тренировка в составлении эссе должна быть особенно усиленной и интенсивной.

С 2012 года время, выделенное на весь экзамен по иностранным языкам, увеличено до 180 минут. Так как остальные задания экзамена не были изменены, мы рекомендуем вам потратить дополнительное время именно на письменную часть (80 минут). Более того, уточняется план к заданиям, что может облегчить задачу в написании.

In my opinion, cars should not be allowed into the city centers as they add to pollution and poison the air we breathe. We must also think about the people who live in the center and suffer from the noise made by cars. Moreover, the streets in the center are usually narrow therefore people are often stuck in traffic for many hours and, as a result, arrive late at their destination. Final-ly, with ho cars in city centers, there would be no need for large ugly car parks, which would allow more space for parks. However, many people believe we would not be able to survive without cars because most of the products for shops and other businesses are transported by cars. Besides, they are afraid that public transport would be overloaded. I am sure it is possible to solve these problems by introducing a reliable high frequency tram service as well as developing the underground. As for goods, we could use electric vehicles for their delivery.

To sum up, I believe that a clean, reliable and environmentally friendly public service would encourage people to use public transport and help smooth the transition to a car-free zone.

Изучение иностранного языка – лучшее, что может быть, изучать его в стране, где на нем разговаривают. Согласны ли вы

Nowadays people spend lots of money in order to go to an English-speaking country to improve their language skills. But is it really the most effective way of learning a language? In my view, studying in a foreign country has certain drawbacks. Firstly, this way is very expensive as the tuition fee for overseas students is rather high. Besides, when you study abroad, you have to adapt to a very different way of life, which can be quite stressful. What is more, English teachers do not speak Russian so if you don’t know English well, you will not understand their explanation.

It is often assumed that it is better to study a language abroad because you can always use it speaking with native speakers. However, I doubt that we will have lots of opportunities to speak abroad as we do not know many people there. It is also believed that Russian teachers are not as qualified as those in England. I totally disagree with this opinion because Russian teachers can compare two languages and explain grammar rules better.

To sum up, I would argue that the best way to learn a language is to study it in your native country because you can always get the necessary help from your teachers. Moreover, today we have lots of opportunities to improve our skills such as communicating with English pen-friends over the Internet. I think that we should travel abroad so as to practise a language but not to study it.

Иностранные языки. Сейчас в школах изучают по 2-3 языка. За и против

Most people understand that without knowledge of foreign languages it is difficult to survive in the modern world. Therefore they send their children to schools where they can study two or even three foreign languages. However, is it good to study several languages simultaneously? On the one hand, foreign languages are the main part of our culture so they help us to expand our outlook. We cannot broaden our minds if we see the world only from the perspective of our own culture. In addition, learning languages is a good exercise for the intellect. Moreover, if pupils know at least one foreign language, they learn new languages much faster. On the other hand, many pupils find it confusing to learn two or three languages at a time, especially languages that are similar, because children usually mix up lots of words. Besides, some languages are tricky enough to learn. For example, in English there are more exceptions than rules. In this case, children can be overloaded with homework. More than that, some pupils do not know their native language well and learning several foreign languages could prevent them from mastering their own language.

In conclusion, I want to say that learning languages is extremely beneficial and I would like to know different foreign languages. However, I believe children should not learn too many languages at the same time so as not to get confused. They ought to get a solid base in one language before they start learning a new one. 16. Интернет. За и против We live in the age of information technology and nowadays the Internet is nearly as common as the telephone. No doubt that it is a unique invention, which has influenced all areas of our lives. However, some people consider the Internet one of the greatest evils of our time. On the one hand, the Internet is very useful, because it lets us access a world of facts, figures and knowledge. In addition, with the Internet, it is now possible to speak to friends and relatives any-where in the world cheaply and quickly. Other services are also available through the Internet such as booking tickets or buying things. Moreover, the Internet allows a lot of talented people to show the world their achievements and makes it easier to find a job. On the other hand, the Internet can become a disaster for our society, because people spend hours in front of their computers and neglect their everyday duties. Another worry is the activities of cybercriminals. For example, hackers can steal your money or even your property while cyberterrorists may ‘attack’ the world’s computers, causing chaos, and making planes and trains crash. What is more, leaders of different terrorist or oppositional organizations can use the Internet to find new followers.

In conclusion, I strongly believe that despite the criticisms by some and the fears of others, the Internet seems to have changed our world to the better and we must try to make the best use of it.

Клонирование. За и против

Recent advances in genetic biology have led us to quite a doubtful situation. People all over the world argue whether human cloning research should be controlled by the government as solving problems connected with human cloning is definitely not a piece of cake. In my opinion, human cloning experiments are extremely dangerous because there are huge risks of abnormalities in human clones. Moreover, if clones have been made, they will obviously have serious psychological problems connected with their unusual birth. Finally, there is no doubt that human cloning will change our perception of what is the value of a human life as we might change from having children to manufacturing them. However, scientists claim that human cloning could be very beneficial as therapeutic cloning could provide stem cells for regenerative medicine and tissues for transplantation. Besides, re-productive cloning will probably give parents who are both infertile an opportunity to have children. I am afraid that this technology is not safe enough to use on humans. It is also possible that clones will age quicker since the cell used in the cloning procedure has already been used in a real life individual.

To sum up, we must question whether human cloning is really worth it when weighed against the problems it raises. From my point of view, human reproductive cloning should be under the tight control of the government and the UN because it is dangerous to interfere with nature and the consequences can be really disastrous.

Книги или компьютеры. Кто победит в будущем

The latest advances in information technology make people think that schools of the future will use computers instead of printed books. Although electronic books have not been widely accepted yet, they have certain advantages over traditional paper volumes. But will they be able to replace printed books? In my opinion, students will be widely using computers for studying in the future. To begin with, computers can store lots of books in their memory and modern software allows us to find quickly the necessary information. Besides, with the interactive programs on computers studying will be much more exciting. What is more, electronic books will not degrade overtime like their printed counterparts. On the other hand, lots of disbelievers argue that computers will not replace printed books because a printed book is better for human eyes than a computer screen. In addition, books are cheaper and easier to use since they do not need electricity or the Internet connection. I cannot agree with this because modern computer screens emit no radiation and allow us to read even in low light conditions. Of course we will have to pay for electricity but I think it will be cheaper than to pay for printed books, which are very expensive nowadays.

To sum up, I think computers and printed books will peacefully coexist for years to come, but in the future technological progress will make it possible for students to carry laptops or even palmtops instead of traditional bags with lots of heavy books.

Компьютерные игры. За и против

People have always had different hobbies but technological progress has caused the appearance of computers and computer games, which can keep a child occupied for hours. However, adults consider computer games a complete waste of time. As for me, I believe computer games are more than mindless entertainment. To begin with, computer games can teach people to achieve their aims as they regularly put obstacles and traps in the way of players which are necessary to overcome in order to progress through the rest of the game. Additionally, computer games can be a valuable source of accidental learning that can be applied to school, home, and social events. Moreover, teachers have also started to appreciate educational games as an opportunity to make their lessons more exciting. Nevertheless, quite a few people are against this activity as they find it rather addictive and harmful for children’s health. They argue that computer games make students neglect their school work. However, if we learn to control our computer use and play games for an hour just to relax after a hard day at school, this will not do us any harm. What is more, modern technology made it possible to eliminate the bad effect of computers on our eyes.

To sum up, I believe that computer games have more advantages than drawbacks. They make us persistent, develop our logical reasoning and help us to escape from everyday problems. The thing is to find a right balance between virtual reality and everyday reality.

Космос. За и против исследований в космосе

Space exploration can mean a major leap for mankind. However, it is often criticized because the price for these space experiments is too high, especially while poverty still exists in many parts of the world. On the one hand, space research is extremely beneficial as it advances technology. As a result of this work, we have lots of inventions, which have made our lives much more comfortable. In addition, through the exploration of space, we could find new elements, minerals or even discover new laws of physics and eventually learn more about ourselves. What is more, space exploration will allow us to establish a human civilization on another planet as a hedge against the catastrophe that might occur on the Earth. On the other hand, the benefits of space exploration are not self-evident, no matter how real they are. It costs billions of dollars to fund the projects of space science whereas this money should rather be spent on meeting the needs of the underprivileged. Besides, some of the technology we develop through space science can be used in a destructive manner if it is in the wrong hands. Finally, a travel to space can be dangerous as we may discover something that is extremely harmful for the living beings on Earth.

To conclude, I want to say that space exploration satisfies the human desire for adventure therefore most people are interested in space research. Nevertheless, I believe our governments should find the right balance between social and space programs.

Отвечая на вопрос, “как писать эссе на английском языке”, стоит напомнить, что любое эссе состоит из нескольких частей. Я бы определила три самых главных: введение, основная часть и заключение. Во введении необходимо обозначить ключевую мысль, идею или проблему, о которой вы будете говорить в основной части. Лучше всего, если она прозвучит в виде какого-нибудь краткого, но лаконичного законченного высказывания. Кстати, это может быть и цитата на английском языке , если вам удастся подобрать ее в соответствии со смысловым содержанием этого эссе на английском языке.

В основной части эссе на английском языке полагается представить какие-либо доводы, доказательства или опровержения вашей основной мысли, которые бы выражали лично ваше мнение по данному вопросу. Можно привести примеры, которые будут иллюстративно отображать вашу точку зрения. При написании эссе на английском языке постарайтесь избегать заумных или книжных фраз, которые превратят вашу работу в скучное творение. В этом случае проверяющий может вообще отказаться читать эту работу. Лучше используйте простой, но одновременно хороший, грамотный, качественный английский. Употребляйте больше прилагательных и наречий , но главное достоинство письменного английского в этом случае – синонимы глаголов и слов в целом. Ваше эссе станет запоминающимся, лексически и грамматически “красивым”. И да, ошибки не приветствуются!

В заключении завершите все ваши рассуждения и сделайте выводы, которые и будут финальной частью вашего эссе на английском языке. Все части эссе должны плавно переходить одна в другую, все мысли должны быть логически связанными. В этом вам поможет специальная лексика, которая и существует для того, чтобы вы последовательно излагали свои мысли.

Например, при добавлении можете воспользоваться такими словами, как moreover (кроме того, более того), as well as (так же как, а так же), futhermore (кроме того, к тому же). Если хотите отобразить контраст или противопоставление, обращайтесь к but (но), however (однако), on the other hand (с другой стороны), yet (даже, пока, уже), on the contrary (на самом деле, наоборот, напротив). Ограничить можно с помощью слов despite / in spite of (несмотря на), выразить причину или итог чего-либо получится при помощи следующей лексики: therefore (поэтому, по этой причине), so (итак, поэтому), as a result (вследствие этого, таким образом), consequently (следовательно, поэтому), this results in (в результате), this leads to (получается). Обратите внимание и на наречия порядка и последовательности – then (потом), next (затем, в следующий раз), after (после), finally / lastly (наконец).

Основной проблемой при определении ключевого момента в том “как писать эссе на английском языке” является неспособность кратко, но грамотно изложить свои мысли. Как правило, мы стараемся, как говорится, “растекаться мыслью по древу” или “лить воду”. Вот этого как раз делать не стоит, так как большой объем не нужной информации в вашем эссе на английском языке не станет достоинством вашей работы, а будет ее недостатком. Если вы пишите эссе не на экзамене, а просто готовитесь к чему-либо, попросите друзей и родственников прочитать его и оценить. Сами тоже перечитайте его несколько раз, чтобы увидеть, допустили ли вы смысловые или грамматические ошибки, и в случае присутствия благополучно от них избавиться.

Введение в тему

In today’s world of fierce competition, it is important for young people to get well-prepared for the challenges of the future. Thus the institution of gap year can be regarded as a step in the right direction though it is also not without its problems.

Аргументы “за”

In its favour, the gap year seems to be useful psychologically as it helps young people understand their needs and interest better before they actually commit themselves to any particular career path. Besides, the gap year has educational advantages because it offers a lot of opportunities to learn about the world and one’s own place in it. For all these reasons, the gap year can be regarded as a positive social institution.

Аргументы “против”

However, as critics are quick to point out, the gap year can in fact be harmful as it interrupts with the rhythm of learning and often makes it difficult for students to return to their studies. Apart from that, unfortunately not every young person can afford totravel around the world and many of them end up sitting around at home, which can be very demotivating.

Заключение

All in all, the gap year may arouse mixed feelings, but still thousands of people every year take a year off. One can only hope they will use it fruitfully, minimizing the dangers and taking full advantage of its benefits.

1. Введение: начните с общего представления темы (In today’s world… it is important) и предложения, выражающего её двойственный характер (It can be regarded as… but not without its problems).

1. Введение: The problem / issue / phenomenon of… is / has always been…, People always say / have always thought / agreed /said / believed…, It is a controversial / burning / hot question…, There is no agreement…

2. Основная часть: представьте аргументы “за” (In its favour) и затем аргументы “против” (However, critics are quick to point out). Как показано в образце, вы можете представить аргументы “за” и “против” в отдельных абзацах. Старайтесь, представлять их симметрично (например, социальные, образовательные и психологические аспекты проблемы). Помните, что эссе такого типа требует сбалансированной аргументации.

2. Основная часть:

Типичные союзы и союзные обороты:

on the one hand… on the other hand; Firstly, To begin with, Secondly, Finally; In addition, Besides, Moreover, What is more, Furthermore; However, Despite this, In spite of this; In fact, As a matter of fact; As a result, Consequently

Другие выражения: One major advantage is…, As advocates of…claim / argue, As critics point out / claim…, There are a number of disadvantages / weaknesses / drawbacks / downsides

3. Заключение: четко подведите итог сказанному (All in all) и снова напишите предложение, отражающее противоречивость темы, но в то же время выражающее надежду на нахождение компромисса (One can hope … minimizing the danger and talking full advantage of benefits).

3. Заключение: All in all, To sum up, In conclusion, In summary, In general; it seems important to add/point out/remind that…, the issue / debate is far from...


Часть 1. Обращение
Все очень просто, начинается любое письмо, конечно же, с обращения.
В английском письменном официально-деловом языке принято обращаться следующим образом:

Dear (что соответствует нашему "Уважаемый/ая" и не предполагает никакой фамильярности) + титул человека, это может быть Mr ("мистер", обращение к мужчине), Ms (обращение к женщине без указание на ее статус замужества и возраст) илиMiss и Mrs ("мисс" и "миссис", обращение к незамужней и замужней женщине, соответственно). Также может использоваться обращение Doctor – для врачей или людей с ученой степенью доктора.

NB: С обращениями Miss и Mrs следует быть крайне аккуратным в свете распространенной ныне тенденции к феминизации общества и модной политкорректности. Даже если вы точно знаете, замужем дама или нет, употребление этих форм может вызвать у нее неудовольствие, ведь в деловой среде ее статус замужества – вещь далеко не самая важная. Поэтому рекомендуем вам ограничиться строгим и нейтральным Ms, если вы не уверены, какая может быть реакция.

После титула идет фамилия человека (напр., Dear Mr Smith ), но ни в коем случае не одно имя (Dear Mr John ). Допустимо использовать полное имя (напр., Dear Mr John Smith ), но это нетипично.
Если вы пишете письмо хорошо знакомому человеку, с которым вы в близких отношениях, можно использовать после Dear только имя, без титула (напр., Dear John ), можно вообще заменить вступительное слово на Hi или Hello , либо просто обратиться к нему John . Однако, имейте в виду, что эти варианты очень неофициальны.
После обращения обычно ставится двоеточие, либо более неформальный вариант – запятая, а следующим обзацем идет текст письма с маленькой буквы.
Итак, начало вашего письма в идеале должно выглядеть примерно так:

Dear Mr Smith:

Please inform us if it is possible to...

Как правильно написать письмо по-английски?

Часть 2. Прощание
То, какую фразу следует выбрать для прощания в электронном или обычном письме, написанном на английском, будет зависеть от степени его официальности, а также от того, какой вариант английского вы предпочитаете использовать: американский или британский / австралийский.
В американском варианте бизнес-английского принято для прощания использовать на выбор следующие стандартные формулировки , которые на русский язык можно перевести как "С уважением" или "Искренне Ваш":

Sincerely yours,

Cordially, (чуть менее распространено).

Обратите внимания, что после прощальной фразы ставится запятая, а затем, следующей строкой пишется имя автора письма .

NB: Кстати, если в письме вы просите человека что-либо сделать для вас, в знак признательности можно перед прощальной фразой также добавить что-то вроде Thanks in advance. (т. е. "Заранее спасибо").

Таким образом, выглядеть окончание письма должно примерно так:

Thanks in advance!

Sincerely yours,
Yevgeniya Smirnova.

В случае, если ваши отношения с получателем менее официальны: вы достаточно хорошо знакомы и находитесь примерно на одном уровне служебной лестницы, либо он (она) ниже вас по рангу, вполне возможно закончить письмо следующими выражениями:

Thanks for the information,
Thanks,
Thanks again,
Talk to you later,

(после запятой везде предполагается ваше имя)
Либо просто поставить имя, без прощальной фразы.
Если вы пишете письмо другу или своим близким, уместно будет закончить письмо словами:

Love,
Best wishes,
See you soon,

Фразы же Regards, (Best regards,; Kind regards, ) и Cheers, используются в неформальном варианте британского и австралийского английского, для американского английского они нетипичны. Cheers в США вообще используется исключительно в качестве тоста (в значении "Будем здоровы!").

Вот прошли новогодние праздники и всем, кто учится в 9 и 11 классах, уже пора задуматься о предстоящих экзаменах. Самое время начать готовиться к ним сейчас. Первое, что нужно сделать — это повторить изученную лексику, то есть пройденные темы по английскому языку.

Итак, основная задача на ближайшие полгода весь словарный запас, который пассивно лежит в голове, превратить из пассивного в активный.

Пассивный словарный запас – слова, которые вы понимаете, читая тексты и слушая аудиозаписи. Активный словарный запас – слова, которые вы умеете употреблять в устной и письменной речи.

Вашему вниманию предлагается список тем по английскому языку , лексику по которым надо активизировать, чтобы хорошо сдать ЕГЭ. Хотя в этом году формат устного экзамена изменился (см. ), но суть осталась прежней: надо знать слова и уметь говорить на заданные темы: задавать вопросы, описывать фотографии, анализировать, сравнивать, находить различия, аргументировать и т.д. Презентации ниже содержат задания по всем видам речевой деятельности и помогут вам подготовиться и успешно сдать экзамен ЕГЭ по английскому языку. Вот содержание статьи:

Обозначение в скобках (например, письмо — 13, 18) означает, что соответствующую тему можно повторить, написав письмо (задание №13, 18), которые даны в презентации «Личное письмо».

Some people say that fast food has a bad effect on our health.
Fast food restaurants like McDonald’s serve millions of people in more than 100 countries each day. Fast food is very popular, especially among teenagers. Nevertheless, is such food healthy or should we avoid it?
In my opinion, fast food does much harm to people’s health. Firstly, such food is low in protein, vitamins and minerals. Secondly, fast food contains a lot of cholesterol. Cholesterol causes the production of a fatty plaque that clogs the arteries, which can lead to a heart attack or a stroke. Thirdly, fast food is high in fat, sugar and calories and full of chemical additives. For example, a can of Coke contains about eight teaspoons of sugar and artificial sweeteners. People who are used to consuming several cans a day may suffer from diabetes, cancer and tooth decay.

YOUTH PROBLEMS.
Some people say that modern teenagers are carefree.
When we hear the word ‘teenager, we often imagine a fun-loving young person who spends time having parties and socializing with peers. Some adults think that, young people do nothing but have fun. However, is a teenager’s life as easy as it seems to be?

Personally, I think that, teenagers face a variety of problems. Peer pressure is one of the biggest stressors for many young people. Some teenagers suffer from bullying, which can have a detrimental effect, on their health, academic performance and self-esteem. Secondly, a lot of teenagers have serious body image issues. Both boys and girls may become critical of their looks and feel insecure. In addition, teenagers experience stress over schoolwork. They are often under pressure from their parents and teachers to perform well academically.

On the contrary, some people think that teenagers have few problems until they reach adulthood. Firstly, they do not have to work, and therefore they can dedicate all their time and energy to their studies and interests. Apart, from that, young people seldom worry about their future and live in the present..

Anyway, some teenagers take part-time jobs and have to balance work and school. It is difficult for them to find time for them friends, interests and extracurricular activities. Besides, many teenagers do think about, their future and worry about, getting into college and choosing a career that is best for them.

To conclude, the teenage years can be a very difficult life period. Coping with problems and deciding what to do with their lives can be stressful for young people. I think that adults should never label teenagers as light-minded or frivolous because that is a misconception.
