МЕТОДИЧНА РОЗРОБКА

У 2022 році Україна запровадила нові стандарти знань у шкільну освіту, що передбачає проведення національного мультипредметного тесту (НМТ) з різних предметів. Це дозволяє оцінити рівень знань учнів та підвищити якість освіти в Україні.

Підготовка до екзаменів є важливим та водночас складним процесом. Використання автентичних матеріалів, онлайн ресурсів , обов’язково систематичне виконання тестів , аналіз помилок та практика обов’язково приведуть до успіху.

Структура завдань НМТ з англійської мови схожа до структури ЗНО, проте є дві основні відмінності – виконання роботи перед екраном комп'ютера і відсутність частини аудіювання та письма. Основні види завдань в НМТ з англійської мови – читання та використання мови.

Усього іспит НМТ з англійської мови міститиме 32 завдання, з-поміж яких:

  • 5 завдань з вибором однієї правильної відповіді

  • 11 завдань на встановлення відповідності

  • 16 завдань на заповнення пропусків у тексті


Наступна збірка тестів є хорошим матеріалом для систематизації знань, якісної підготовки до тесту, а також підвищення рівня англійської в усіх аспектах, адже охоплює рівень мови B1- B2.

TASK 2

Read the text below. For questions (6-10) choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D).


Food for a community



Milpa Alta is a region of twelve villages and towns to the south of Mexico City. In Milpa Alta, traditions are still very important and one of the most famous traditional events is a community meal. It takes place every Christmas and is called La Rejunta. More than a meal, it’s a feast, where about sixty thousand tamales and fifteen thousand litres of hot chocolate are made and consumed. Tamales are made from corn. They are typical of the region: the name Milpa Alta means ‘High cornfield’. The feast is offered to the people who go on the long walk to El Señor de Chalm about 80 kilometres away. It’s an important event on the religious calendar for local people and as many as 20,000 people take part.

The planning and organisation of La Rejunta takes the whole year. Every year, different people are responsible for organising the meal. There’s a waiting list for the opportunity to do this and currently the next available year is 2046.

One year before the meal, men go to the forest and collect wood that they store near the home. It has to be dry when it’s used to make the cooking fires. Local farmers grow most of the corn, meat and vegetables that are needed as ingredients. In the week before the feast, hundreds of volunteers arrive to help with the preparation and the cooking. No instant or ready-made foods are allowed. All meals are cooked during the night before dinner.

For the people of Milpa Alta, eating together is one of their most important traditions. One woman, Josefina García Jiménez, explains that sitting together at the table is like a glue that keeps people together. ‘It feels like I am passing down a tradition, and when they are adults, they will remember what I have done. Here we have time to cook, time to think about the ingredients, time to show our kids through cooking that we love them.’ The time that everybody stays at the table after the meal has finished is just as important as the food. They talk, tell stories and laugh together. At Christmas, La Rejunta is a giant version of a family meal.

The American city of Detroit

The American city of Detroit has an interesting history. It reminds me of the rise and fall of ancient empires that we studied in history classes at school. The city of Detroit, in the USA,(17)------------------. It had a broad river, smart streets and historically important architecture. Then, (18)----------------, it became ‘Motor City’. For a time, most of the world’s cars were made here.A worker at one of the car factories could own a home, plus a boat, maybe even a holiday cottage. But in the early years of the 21st century, Detroit became America’s poorest big city. In less than five decades the once lively Motor City (19)______________. It became known as a city that was failing, full of ruined buildings, extensive poverty and crime. What went wrong in Detroit? The population fell for several reasons.

Many of Detroit’s people are poor – (21)___________. In 2013, the city did something unusual: it declared itself bankrupt. It was the largest city bankruptcy in US history, at approximately 18-20 billion dollars. Now that the city is free of debt, about a hundred empty houses are demolished each week to make space for new buildings. Detroit is also attracting investors . The New Economy Initiative gave grants of 10,000 dollars to each of 30 new small businesses. It seems (22)____________– grocery stores, juice bars, coffee shops, even bicycle makers.

TASK 5


Nowadays scientists are studying genes that could mean long life for us all. In fact, there are now so many healthy, elderly people that there’s a new term for them: the wellderly. There have been many scientific studies of communities where a healthy old age is typical. These include places like Calabria in southern Italy and the island of Okinawa in Japan. The small village of Molochio in Calabria has about 2,000 inhabitants. And of these, there are at least eight centenarians. When researchers ask people like this the secret of their long life, the answer is almost always (23 )________ diet .While in the past scientists have looked at things such as diet and lifestyle for an explanation of long life, these days they are (24)______ genetics. Back in Calabria, scientists are trying to work out exactly how much of the longevity is (25)____ genetics and how much to environment. By checking public records going back to the 19th century, researchers have reconstructed the family trees of 202 nonagenarians and centenarians. They concluded that there were genetic factors (26)_______ .

2. Choosing to study a major that you are fond of and eager to be specialised in, with passion and confidence, means that you’ll definitely be an active and effective member of your society. I had to go through a long experience in order to realise this. Fortunately, I understood it, being able to switch from my initial course of study of chemical engineering to the field of career counselling, where my real passion and enthusiasm lie, providing guidance to other students.

After I had graduated from high school and based on my academic achievements in the fields of chemistry and mathematics, influenced by my friends’ opinions, I majored in chemical engineering. But I had realised that this field did not suit my personality, and I discovered that the reason behind the wrong choices we make as students while choosing majors that do not fit our abilities and skills, is back of appropriate career counselling. This is not just a relationship between the counsellor and the student. It is based on designing counselling programmes and helping individuals optimise their academic and professional future and make appropriate decisions. I have realised that there is a large number of students who never proceed to higher education. This is not due to their skills, but because of lack of guidance. During my college years at the University of Leeds in the UK, I had been trying to change my academic path and move to the College of Education. But since I had a scholarship and had already fulfilled a large part of my studying hours, I decided to continue. Although I scored highly , studying engineering had never aligned with my personality and interests, and I had no real passion for this field. I also started focusing more on developing my skills in other aspects and setting up my own journey of self-discovery. I volunteered in many activities, most of which had to do with career counselling and youth orientation, especially for those who are looking forward to studying abroad. This voluntary work opened the doors for me to develop myself and experience new job opportunities. After working for four years at the Qatar Foundation, I pursued a Master’s degree from Penn State University in the US in career counselling. At that time, I was enjoying each subject and feeling accomplished in them, and that is what made me excel and complete my journey in this field.

(Khalifa Al-Salahi, a certified career counsellor)

A It doesn’t matter what you study at university.

B You must be an active and effective member of your society.

C Your future depends on your academic achievements.

D He finally managed to make the right choice.


7. What did Khalifa’s initial major include ?

D career counselling


8. Was he content with studying engineering ?

D He was passionate about it.



9. What activities during studying was Khalifa engaged to ?

A He travelled abroad.

B He volunteered a lot.

C He lived in Qatar.

D He helped students with studies.



10. What can be inferred from the text ?

A You should be dedicated and enjoy what you do.

B Never take serious decisions yourself.

C Study only what you are good at.

D Students who never proceed to higher education are certain about their choice



English Seaside Resorts

11. Brighton
Brighton lies on the slope of a hill, in the middle of a broad and shallow bay with a pebble beach and some sand at low tide. Its chief attractions are its clear and bracing air, the fine expanse of sea, bordered by white chalk-cliffs, and the crowds of visitors, because it is a very popular place. There are a large number of old and interesting buildings in the town, in particular the Royal Pavilion, built in an Oriental style by the famous architect, John Nash, for the Prince Regent. In the summer, there is horse racing at the town race course, immortalized in Graham Greene’s novel, Brighton Rock, and Brighton is well-known for its numerous public houses. Finally, there is an interesting aquarium near the Palace Pier. On the landward side of the town, the South Downs provide many interesting walks and viewpoints.

12. Bournemouth
Bournemouth stands on two small hills in the sheltered valley of the Bourne river, the banks of which are laid out as public gardens. It is well-known as a healthy, attractive and modern resort, surrounded by gardens and pine forests, which are popular all year round. There are excellent and extensive sandy beaches for bathing, and a long line of picturesque cliffs, along with other very interesting things to see, such as the town art gallery and museum, and the East Cliff rock garden which attracts many geologists because it contains a large collection of British geological specimens.The town has literary connections, with Thomas Hardy and R. L. Stevenson, and Mary, the second wife of the poet, Shelley, is buried in St Peter’s churchyard. Finally, walkers and ramblers can enjoy pleasant walks along the coast in both directions.

13. Torquay
Torquay is a seaside town in Devon, England, about 29 km south of the county town of Exeter and 45 km east-north-east of Plymouth, on the north of Tor Bay. The place dates back to pre-historic times, and there are numerous archaeological remains. It is a well-known resort and spa, with excellent bathing on a sand and pebble beach, and because of its reputation for having a mild climate, it is a popular place for people with delicate chests and pulmonary problems. There is sub-tropical vegetation, palm trees and the like, growing in the public gardens, and visitors can enjoy picturesque cliff walks, but the town is best seen from a boat in the bay. In fact, Torquay is an important yachting station and an annual regatta is held there in August or September.

14. Hastings
Hastings is famous for the Battle of Hastings, 1066, in which the Normans defeated the Saxons and took over the country. One of the most interesting historical monuments in Britain, Battle Abbey, is near Hastings, and it was founded by William the Conqueror, after his victory over the English, led by Harold. The Abbey stands on the exact spot where the English king fell, and there are many old buildings, including the remains of a Norman castle, which is open to the public. The seafront, which is about three miles long with a fine esplanade, is striking. The beach is pebble with sand at low tide, and the town is active only in summer. Along the seafront there are row upon row of cheap bed and breakfast hotels, and finally there are cliffs to the east, which provide walks to the well-known beauty spots of Fairlight and Ecclesbourne Glens.

15. Llandudno

A Victorian favourite once billed as the ‘Queen of Welsh resorts’, Llandudno has kept much of the charm that made it so popular. The curving promenade framing Llandudno Bay, the aroma of fish and chips wafting in the air, pastel-coloured art deco houses lining the seafront and old-fashioned amusements on Llandudno Pier all combine to deliver a quintessential British seaside break. The town also serves as gateway to a wealth of natural attractions in Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and water-based adventures in Colwyn Bay. And a stay in Llandudno can be combined with a trip to Conwy, across the river of the same name, which has a mighty castle and Britain’s smallest house.

16. Monmouthshire

Monmouthshire is a stunner: this county in southeast Wales packs a punch with moody mountains, market towns, meandering rivers and Michelin-starred restaurants. It also encompasses some of Britain’s best scenery, spanning the dramatic Black Mountains in the north .

The county’s length is stitched with walking trails — including the Wye Valley Greenway, which opened in 2021 — that take in pastoral fields, plump forested hills, scores of sleepy castles and the majestic monastic ruins of Tintern Abbey on the River Wye’s banks. Laid-back towns peppered across Monmouthshire include floral Usk, mediaeval Monmouth and the creative and culinary hub of Abergavenny.

Because of an intense desire to win the approval (25) ____ my peers, I began to actively (26) _____ decisions( 27)_______ in rather than finding my joy by expressing who I really was. On tests, I purposefully gave the wrong answers in an effort to lower my score. The momentary gratification of being liked or winning the approval of others could have had profound consequences. In high school, I started to think about my future and felt that I had a responsibility to begin living my life in a way that reflected who I really was. Small decision by small decision, I began to act with the courage to be me.

Moldova

Moldova is a constantly (28) _______ destination that can offer extraordinary travel experiences for any type of traveller, especially (29)______ who have a sense of adventure, curiosity, and the desire to discover something new. Emil Racoviță Cave is located next to Criva Village in the north of the Republic of Moldova and is the third greatest gypsum cave in Europe and the seventh greatest gypsum cave in the world. It was discovered in 1959 after an explosion at the gypsum quarry in Criva. 87 lesson 3 Locals (30)_______ used to call it Cinderella, but in 1991, the cave was renamed in honour of the well-known Romanian scientist, explorer, and speleologist Emil Racoviță. Even the most experienced researchers are challenged by the complex and winding galleries of the cave, which form a real labyrinth. The galleries and labyrinths are storeyed in 3-4 levels and grow larger in some places, forming large halls. The galleries (31) ________ to one another through narrow passageways, sometimes so narrow that a man of average height could hardly pass through them. There are eleven impressive columns that support the ceiling in the waiting hall. The majority of halls have a vaulted ceiling in the Gothic style, with a height of about 11 meters. Most of the ceilings and walls in the cave imitate mosaics due to the shapes that appear as a result of gypsum crystallization. The tunnels are 60 to 100 metres long and 30 to 40 metres wide. There are some wells found in the galleries.

Exploring the cave, you’ll experience a burst of emotions as though you have

TASK 2
Read the text below. For questions (6-10) choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D).
Last days of the rickshaw
Kolkata (previously known as Calcutta) is the famous capital of West Bengal in India and the home of nearly 15 million people. The trafc jams and engine fumes begin early in the morning with long lines of private cars, public buses, taxis, three-wheeled scooters and pedicabs. There aren’t many alternatives. You can catch a train through the city or take the underground but sooner or later you have to go on foot and walking in Kolkata is a dangerous activity. As the drivers race towards pedestrians, they blow their horns. The sound never stops from morning to night.
So when I crossed a small road on my rst day in the city, I was surprised because I heard a bell – not a horn. It was a tiny man pulling a rickshaw. He stopped and picked up two children from the front door of their house and then, with great strength, pulled them to school. For many people, the rickshaw is a symbol of Kolkata and they have many advantages. When the trafc is bad, rickshaws nd a way through the trafc. If you miss your bus and there aren’t any taxis, you can always nd a rickshaw in Kolkata. Rickshaws are also very popular with local shoppers. The driver takes you from your house to the market and waits for you. Then he loads all your purchases, drops you off outside your home and helps you unload. 
You also see lots more people getting on and off rickshaws during the monsoon season. That’s the period from June to September when Kolkata gets heavy rainfall. Sometimes it rains for 48 hours without a break. In the older parts of the city, the roads ood. The water can rise as high as people’s waists in the worst part. When it’s this bad, anything with an engine is useless. But the rickshaw drivers never stop working, even with water all around them.
But not everyone thinks rickshaws are a good thing. Some local ofcials and politicians want to ban rickshaws on ‘humanitarian grounds’. They believe it is wrong for one man to pull another person when there is modern transport in the city. However, there is a problem with this plan. Many of the rickshaw drivers come from the countryside with no job and no qualications. The only job they can nd in Kolkata is pulling a rickshaw. If the city bans rickshaws, these men won’t have a job or income. So for the moment, the people of Kolkata still go by rickshaw.

TASK 3
Read the texts below. Match choices (A-H) to (11-16). There are two choices you do not need to use.
Here are some ideas to boost your learning – give them a go today!
11
Don’t get discouraged if you aren’t learning English fast enough. It’s quite common to experience highs and lows rather than improving at a steady pace. Keep your goal in sight and work towards it!
12
Some phrasal verbs have more than one meaning, which can make them tricky to learn. When you spot a new phrasal verb, check the meaning in a dictionary and write it down with an example sentence to help you remember how to use it.
13
Try to practise your English as much as possible in your daily life. Listen to English when you are cooking or doing jobs around the home or read something in English on your way to work or school.
14
When you come across new adjectives, note down the nouns they commonly pair up with. A good dictionary will help you. Example:  avant-garde art/cinema/painting (very original or modern)

15
After reading a text in detail, try looking for useful phrases that you would like to remember and underline them. For example, if you have finished reading something to complete some comprehension questions, read it again and underline any new words.
Make sure you read different kinds of text in English. Don’t just stick to one. Read stories, poems, instruction manuals, newspapers, and so on. This will help you widen your vocabulary.
If learning English seems very challenging, break it down into smaller tasks. For example, don’t try to learn lots of new words in one go. Instead, focus on learning a few new words every week. You will be much more likely to remember them!
16
Try keeping a listening diary and log occasions when you listen to English. Note down any problems you experience and how you helped yourself to listen better. Compare recent entries with older entries to see how well you are progressing.




To boost your learning    ---------------------

A. Practise as more as possible
B. Keep your own recordings
C.  Jot down all collocations to remember
D.  Listen to the radio
E.  Set the aim
F.  Read more
G. Check the meaning
H.  Attend language courses
