When developing CIM, the following are also taken into account:
7. Common European Framework of Reference for a Foreign Language: Learning, Teaching, Assessment. MSLU, 2003.
3. Approaches to the selection of content, the development of the structure of the KIM USE
The purpose of the unified state exam in a foreign language is to determine the level of a foreign language communicative competence examinee. The main attention is paid to speech competence, i.e. communication skills in different types speech activity: listening, reading, writing, as well as language competence, i.e. language knowledge and skills. Sociocultural knowledge and skills are tested indirectly in the sections "Listening", "Reading" and are one of the objects of measurement in the section "Writing"; compensatory skills are checked indirectly in the "Writing" section.
Consequently, KIM USE in foreign languages contains the sections "Listening", "Reading", "Grammar and Vocabulary" and "Writing". At the same time, it should be borne in mind that, although the sections “Listening”, “Reading” and “Writing” have skills in the corresponding types of speech activity as objects of control, these skills are provided with the necessary level of development of the language competence of the examinees. Successful completion of tasks for the control of receptive types of speech activity is ensured by knowledge of lexical units, morphological forms and syntactic constructions and the skills of their recognition/recognition. The tasks of the "Writing" section require from the examinee, in addition to this knowledge, the skills of operating with lexical units and grammatical structures in a communicatively meaningful context. Spelling skills are the object of control in tasks B4-B16 of the "Grammar and Vocabulary" section, as well as tasks C1, C2 of the "Writing" section.
4. The structure of KIM USE
The examination paper contains the sections "Listening", "Reading", "Grammar and Vocabulary" and "Writing".
To differentiate examinees by levels of foreign language proficiency within the limits formulated in the Federal component state standard general education in foreign languages, all sections are included along with assignments basic level tasks of higher difficulty levels.
The level of difficulty of tasks is determined by the levels of complexity of the language material and the skills being tested, as well as the type of task.
The work on a foreign language includes 28 tasks with a choice of answers from three or four proposed, 16 tasks of an open type with a short answer, including tasks for establishing correspondence, and 2 tasks of an open type with a detailed answer.
The basic, advanced and high levels of complexity of the USE assignments correlate with the levels of foreign language proficiency defined in the documents of the Council of Europe 1 as follows:
- Basic level - A2+ 2
- Advanced level - B1
- High level - B2
1 Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment. MSLU, 2003.
2 Since the entire possible range of levels of foreign language proficiency is represented in the document of the Council of Europe by only six levels, it is obvious that certain sublevels can be distinguished within each of them. Basic designation USE level how A2+ means that from the description of level A2 for preparing tasks of the basic level, developers are guided by descriptors that are closer to level B1, and not to level A1.

English is the most popular of the languages. Today, without knowledge of a foreign language, it is difficult to achieve career heights in almost any profession, so a significant number of liberal arts universities require theirs to provide an appropriate certificate. The English exam is chosen by students who plan to devote their lives to linguistics, teaching, technical and literary translation, diplomacy and international relations.
AT last years examinations in foreign languages are becoming more and more difficult for graduates - now they are required not only to know the basic rules and language norms, but also to have significant speaking skills, because the oral part has been added to the exam. For successful delivery examination will require months of hard and systematic independent work, and maybe even the help of a tutor. Another important point is awareness of possible innovations. Let's see how this exam will take place in 2018!
Demo version of the USE-2018
USE dates in English
The approved schedule of the all-Russian examination will be published in January 2018. But you can already find out the approximate periods today conducting the exam, designated by Rosobrnadzor:
- from the second half of March to mid-April 2018 years will pass early examination. The starting date is March 22. Please note that not all students can take the exam early. These graduates include those who graduated from school before 2017/2018 school year, poor students of previous years without a certificate, as well as students of evening schools. Those who decided not to enter a university, but to go to, applicants from foreign universities, children leaving to live abroad, or those who came to study in Russia from abroad, can also take the test ahead of schedule. An exception is also made for children leaving for sports, cultural or scientific competitions and competitions, as well as for schoolchildren who are scheduled for medical or rehabilitation procedures during the main test;
- With last days May and until the beginning of June 2018, the main period of the exam is scheduled. Most likely, the first exams will begin on May 28, 2018;
- the start of the additional USE period is announced for September 4, 2018. Additional examinations will take place during the first half of September.
How did the graduates of previous years pass English?
The popularity of the English language among future students of Russian universities is also confirmed by official statistics - about 9% of all graduates (which is about 64.5 thousand schoolchildren in 2017) choose the USE for themselves in this foreign language. In 2017, the proportion of graduates who failed to score even the required minimum of 22 points significantly decreased.
The percentage of such underachieving eleventh-graders in recent years has fluctuated between 1.8-3.3%, which looks very optimistic in comparison with other exams. The average score that Russian schoolchildren demonstrate when passing English is 64.8-65.1 points, which is approximately equal to the “four” mark. This is significantly higher than the results of other exams show.
According to statistics, English language is one of the easiest exam
Innovations in the Unified State Examination in English
Specialists from FIPI did not make any significant changes to the 2018 materials. The only innovation is that in KIMs in English, criteria-based approaches to assessing tasks under numbers 39-40 were clarified.
Contents of the ticket in English
The main purpose of the all-Russian examination in English is to check the level of mastery of a foreign language. The primary goal of the commission is to determine how freely the student feels in various types language activities, which include listening, reading, writing and speaking. High school students will have to show their skills in mastering lexical units, morphological forms and syntactic constructions. Myself Examination ticket is divided into two parts:
- written - within 180 minutes, students have to solve 40 tasks. This part of the exam requires an audition (estimated at 20 primary points, which is 20% of all points for the exam), demonstrate reading skills (another 20 primary points), convince the commission of knowledge of grammar and vocabulary (20 primary points), and also show their level of writing skills (20 primary points);
- oral - within 15 minutes, students have to solve 4 more tasks. They will have to answer questions and describe pictures. This part gives another 20 primary points (or 20% of all points for the exam).
In total, graduates will have to cope with 44 tasks of basic, advanced and high level difficulties that add up to 100 points.
Written part of KIMs
Structurally, KIMs in English are represented by several main sections:
- Listening, aimed at identifying how well the student understands the text being listened to. This task is given 30 minutes of examination time, during which the student must cope with the following tasks:
- 1 - identifying the correspondence between statements and statements made in the recording. Students are invited to evaluate 6 statements, comparing them with 7 proposed statements-answers, one of which is incorrect. The student is given 20 seconds to read the statements-answers, then the audio recording will be scrolled 2 times. After that, the student must mark the correct answers on the examination form;
- 2 - assessment of the correctness of judgments, which must be made after listening to the audio recording in a dialogue form. The student is required to put down only the words "true", "false" or "not stated";
- from 3 to 9 - an audio task in the form of a short interview, after listening to which the student will need to choose the correct answer from the options presented on the form. Most often, the task is presented in the form of a question that needs to be answered, or an unfinished sentence that needs to be completed with the right words.
- Reading aimed at checking the understanding of structural and semantic relationships in the proposed text. The student will receive 30 minutes for which he must complete the following tasks:
- 10 - familiarization with seven short texts and identifying the correspondence of the information provided with 8 headings, among which one option will be incorrect;
- 11 - work with text in which there are missing parts. There will be 6 such gaps in total. They must be filled in by choosing words from the seven proposed options;
- from 12 to 18 - acquaintance with a literary or journalistic fragment, to which interrogative sentences and statements with missing words are attached. They will need to choose the correct answer or complete the phrase.
- Grammar and vocabulary are part of the exam check how well the student operates with these language skills. This part of the ticket is considered the most difficult, because it is here that students lose the most points. To work with this part of the ticket, 40 minutes will be allotted, during which you will have to solve the following tasks:
- from 19 to 25 - familiarization with several fragments of the text in which words or phrases will be omitted. Gaps will need to be filled in based on responses that must first be converted;
- from 26 to 31 - exercises that test the skill of word formation. The student is asked to read the text with the missing pieces in order to determine which parts of speech are missing in it. To write down the correct answer, the missing word will need to be transformed (for example, to make an adjective from a noun);
- from 32 to 38 - vocabulary exercises that involve working with text fragments in which words are missing. The correct answers are offered in the KIM form, so you only have to make the right choice.
- Writing - This part of the ticket will test your ability to create different types of written texts. You have 80 minutes to complete the tasks, during which you need to complete the following exercises:
- 39 - the student will need to write a letter of a personal nature, keeping within 100-140 words (it is proposed to complete the task in 20 minutes);
- 40 - writing an essay (200-250 words). Focus on the plan and topic proposed in the KIMs. In this task, you will need to write a short introduction on the problem, state your opinion on this issue, support it with arguments and draw a conclusion. You should take approximately 60 minutes to complete this task.
This exam will require not only knowledge of the rules, but also language skills
Oral part of the exam
In this part of the exam, the commission will evaluate the student's speech skills. A separate day will be allocated for this test. Each student will have 15 minutes to complete the following types of tasks:
- Reading a short text aloud. Within 1.5 minutes, the student has the opportunity to read the text to himself, and then voice it out loud;
- Formulation of five questions on a piece of text. Most often this is an advertisement. The student will have 1.5 minutes to read the text and then another 20 seconds to answer each question;
- Description of the photo. Students are given a choice of five photos, among which they need to take one and describe it according to the plan proposed in KIMs. 1.5 minutes will be allotted for preparation, and then within 2 minutes you will need to state in your own words what you see in the picture;
- Comparison of two photos. The student will have to identify the similarities and differences between the two pictures in 1.5 minutes, and then tell them to the commission in 2 minutes.
Examination procedure
The examination is regulated by strict rules. First, in USE time it will not be possible to use smartphones, video and audio equipment, smart watches and reference materials. Secondly, you should not peep into someone else's answer sheet, talk to other exam participants or leave the audience without an observer - this will be the reason for the cancellation of your work. Remember that in 2018 all 100% of the classrooms dedicated to exams will be equipped with online monitoring systems.
Each class dedicated to the written part of the examination will be equipped with technical means to play audio recordings during audition. Classes for the oral part of the exam will be equipped with computers with a headset, microphones and appropriate software for fixing answers.
How are exam scores translated into graduation marks?
Points for work affect the certificate and are easily translated into the usual school system:
- 0-21 points corresponds to the level of "two";
- 22-58 points show satisfactory preparation and are equal to the "troika";
- 59-83 points allow you to get a "four";
- 84 points and above tell us that the student knows the subject perfectly.
The minimum score that you need to score in order to obtain a certificate is 22. However, it is worth remembering that in order to enter an “average” university, you need to score at least 45 points, and in this case we are not talking about budget places. Educational establishments capitals usually accept schoolchildren who managed to score in English from 86 points and above.
Preparation for the exam in English
To pass the English language, you will have to spend a lot of time preparing. Try to correctly allocate the time left before the exam in order to repeat school course and work out demo versions of KIMs. Their solution will help you understand the structure of the exam - you must admit, if you see a ticket for the exam for the first time, you will probably get nervous. And this, in turn, will lead to a lot of small annoying mistakes. Official KIMS can be downloaded on our website by simply using the link at the beginning of the article.
When preparing for the exam, not only textbooks, but also audiobooks will help you!
Do not forget about preparing for listening, because not every teacher at school takes enough time in the classroom to teach students to perceive foreign speech by ear. Audiobooks, songs of your favorite artists, films or TV series in English dubbing will come to your aid. Watch at least a couple of episodes of a series or movie that interests you a day, and listen to a book on the way to school. After a few months of such preparation, you will be able to distinguish words and learn to understand the meaning of the text by ear.
A frequent problem is also the inability to speak - if in vocabulary, grammar and writing most of children who have chosen a foreign language for themselves as the exam, demonstrates good results, then oral part causes certain difficulties. You can practice this skill in a fairly simple way - constantly playing small dialogues in your head with everyday situations, or describing objects, people and buildings that you see while going to school or shopping at the supermarket.
Essay writing also requires separate preparation. Sharpen your mini-essay writing skills by using tickets from previous years. Each new essay will help you better formulate thoughts and present arguments in favor of your point of view. When writing an essay, it is worth remembering these tips:
- do not choose the first topic that comes across - better think about which one will be closer to you and will not require significant effort for argumentation. Part of the points in this task is given precisely for understanding the subject of discussion. If a member of the commission notices that you do not understand what you are writing about, zero will be given for the task;
There are documents that regulate the structure and content of KIM - codifiers and specifications. A complete list of questions that can be controlled at the 2018 unified state exam is given in the codifier of content elements and requirements for the level of preparation of graduates of educational organizations for the 2018 unified state exam in English.
