Task 1

For items 7-16, read the passage below and choose the option which best fits according

to the text.

The openness of talking to strangers

Catherine Carr shares her experience of talking to strangers.

You may be surprised to learn that one of my ideas of top entertainment is to

people-watch. You’ll find me at it in cafés, bars, on trains. The only thing that can beat it

is to take the extra step and strike up a conversation. Not the party kind one. I prefer the

bigger sort, with feelings and explanations of passions, maybe with a bit of childhood

thrown in.

Early on in my career as a radio reporter, this preference for the personal over the

professional was obvious. I didn’t make the greatest of newshounds, as I was often

completely diverted by the lives which surrounded the headline. Often, after switching

off the recorder, instead of hurrying back to file my piece, I ended up chatting some

more and more.

Some time later, I moved to Colchester and started recording my podcast, Where

Are You Going? Its concept is simple: I potter around any location talking to strangers

and asking them that question. The answers are sometimes funny, sometimes surprising,

tragic or shocking. Occasionally they take your breath away. On one single sunny day,

for instance, I recorded interviews with an artist in a fluffy orange cardigan, a pair of

retired special needs teachers on their way to buy ice-creams, and a trio of Iranian

refugees.

Or, I remember a hot September lunchtime, when I started talking to a man I have

never met before. He was on the way to Boots and he told me he’d been married for

years and was currently waiting for a hip replacement. He played in a rock band that

performed all over Essex. He then told me how his Italian father had met his English

mother. His parents’ marriage was a happy one and the story was precious to him. He

told me about his trips to Tuscany and lovely meetings he had with the Italian relatives.

This September, the podcast won an award at the British Podcast Awards and lots

of listeners tell us they have found a blueprint for creating connections of their own,

understanding it can be quite possible to talk to people you don’t know and share a little

of each other’s lives.

In his fascinating book Hello, Stranger writer William Buckingham writes that

there is something freeing and comfortable in talking to strangers, in the possibilities

they bring. Strangers are unentangled in our worlds and lives and this lack can lighten

our own burden. This is why strangers can unexpectedly become confidants.” He says

Всероссийская олимпиада школьников. Английский язык. 2024-2025 уч г.

Муниципальный этап. 10-11 классы. Ответы и критерии оценивания

that strangers often trade the most surprising revelations and confidences as there’s little

chance of ever seeing each other again.

At the beginning, I assumed lots of people would wave me away or tell me not to

invade their privacy, or just be baffled by the whole idea of me asking: “Where are you

going?” But the vast majority do not and aren’t. People seem to want to talk and very

often about really important things.

Gina, a friend of mine, who is a psychotherapist, was less surprised that people

opened up in this way. In her experience, people in therapy often blurt out the most

vulnerable and important thing just as the hour’s session is ending. She explained that

it’s a safe window of time, after which they leave the room and there is no comeback.

The few minutes I spend with people I talk to are perhaps a cross between the

confessional described by Buckingham and the last few ticks of the clock in the therapy

room. Interviewees are always anonymous and - after we chat - we go our separate

ways. Even though the conversation can become intimate very quickly, it is also only a

brief moment shared, which then sort of closes up behind us.

In the time since I started asking strangers where they are going, the world has

changed, politics has become more divisive and spaces to talk openly feel rarer. A lot of

interactions take place online and - as we all know - can become angry pretty quickly.

So I’m always expecting the people I approach to reflect that - and to be hostile to the

idea of talking to a stranger about things that really matter to them. But instead, I keep

finding the opposite. People are as open as ever and - post pandemic - even more keen

for connection.

Task 2

For items 1-10, read the passage below and choose which of the sentences A-K fit into

the numbered gaps in the text. There is one extra sentence which does not fit in any of

the gaps.

Tsvetaeva apple pie (tsvetaevski pirog) is a neat little dessert familiar to both

Russian home bakers and poetry lovers. (1)

_____

One of the unofficial stories has it that the pie was loved by the family of Marina

Tsvetaeva and often baked and served by Marina and her sister Anastasia at tea time,

when they were young ladies and spent their holidays and summers at a dacha in Tarusa

with relatives and closest friends. (2)

_____

In reality, there is no paper trail to confirm this story. (3)

_____. She admitted she

was generally hopeless and awful at cooking and housekeeping, too. (4)

_____

In her memoirs, Anastasia recalls a large cozy garden with apple trees and a

veranda. (5)

_____. Indeed, sour cream was and is the most important ingredient of the

pie, along with apples.

(6)

_____. That is why Russian fans of Tsvetaeva's poetry usually celebrate her

birthday by making her favorite apple pie.

(7)

_____. In fact, adding sour cream into the dough makes the piecrust tenderer

and richer in taste. And the same goes with the filling. Some say that sour cream is a

good Slavic alternative to cream cheese. (8)

_____

The best apple varieties for Tsvetaeva apple pie are Antonovka or Bogatyr, which

can be picked in late autumn. (9)

_____. Although the traditional version of the pie calls

for apples, sour cream base also goes perfectly with lots of other fruits and especially

berries. So why not try adding strawberries into the recipe, the most summerish berries?

The pie is equally delicious when served warm or cooled. (10)

_____. Enjoy a

slice with a cup of black tea!

Всероссийская олимпиада школьников. Английский язык. 2024-2025 уч г.

Муниципальный этап. 10-11 классы. Ответы и критерии оценивания

A) It gives desserts a very similar signature sourish hint with a unique creamy

consistency.

B) The latter would often say the pies were so good, with sweet filling (or ‘zalivka’) and

contrasting tang from the apples, that the recipe spread across the country bearing

Marina’s name.

C) Today, the peculiarity of the pie still lies in its delicate sour cream dough.

D) Marina Tsvetaeva herself was born on one of those apple-scented October days,

when the sky is motionless and fallen leaves are blanketed by the first frosty fog.

E) According to another theory, which sounds more plausible, the pie came from the

Tsvetaevs' neighbors.

F) Some say that chilling it in the fridge for 3-5 hours makes it even tenderer and

creamier in texture.

G) It is unclear how it came to be associated with Marina Tsvetaeva, a famous poetess,

incredibly talented and rebellious, living in the early twentieth century Russia.

H) In addition to the traditional recipe with apples, there are also more other variants

with fruit and berry fillings, like pears and strawberries.

I) There would always be a samovar on the ready and the table would be laid with sweet

pies made with delicious sour cream.

J) These have a slightly sour taste, which goes so well with the thin shortcrust pastry and

delicate sour cream based filling.

K) By Marina's own admission, she could only write poetry and was completely useless

in the kitchen.

Time: 60 minutes (45 points)

Задание 18.

Task 1. Items 1-15 (15 points)

For questions 1-15, read the text below and look carefully at each line. Some of the

lines are correct, and some have a word which should not be there.

If a line is correct put a tick. Use letter "V" as a tick. If a line has a word which should

not be there, write the word in a given space. There are two examples at the beginning

(0 and 00).

How can I improve my conversation skills?

I’m ignored when I try to chat to people. How do you do conversation?

I don’t understand how it works. I can only ever communicate factual

information such as “A coffee and a croissant, please.”

Other people seem to rattle on about anything and everything,

constantly jumping from one topic to another, but I can never follow. If

latter

I ever feel that I have something to contribute and try to join in they

simply ignore me or change the latter subject.

If I will try to initiate a conversation, for example by complimenting

someone on their obviously expensive camera, they will initially

will

respond but after about 60 seconds turn away as soon as they realise

that I am “trying to make conversation”.

On the other one hand, I am able to express myself very well in writing.

Even more paradoxically I make a good living as a translator (in written

one

form), translating from various European languages.

Partly this is because I take a very analytical approach to language and

so I am able to dig too deep into the meaning of what the writer is

too

trying to convey.

I also get along very well with animals, using a body language. For

instance, I can get dogs to follow me around, walk to heel, sit or lie

down merely by using gestures.

But it would be far nice to take my conversational skills a little bit

higher. Any tips?

Quite a lot of people aren’t as skilled at conversation as they think, so

far

you are not alone. What’s great is that you are curious and asking the

question.

Всероссийская олимпиада школьников. Английский язык. 2024-2025 уч г.

Муниципальный этап. 10-11 классы. Ответы и критерии оценивания

Some people are being stuck on transmit (“rambling”) and think talking

about themselves is good chat. Some think interrogating the other

being

person is the way to go. But conversation is the turning together of two

people. A lot of people mistake talking for conversation.

I wouldn’t necessarily always blame yourself either; a fruitful

conversation does it require input from two people, not just one left

doing the heavy lifting.

I went to psychotherapist and skilled conversationalist Chris Mills with

whom I did a podcast on the art of listening which is a great bedrock of

conversation.

Mills pondered on at “the difference between small talk and delivering

factual information. The fundamental for a conversation to be

successful is that it has to make emotional contact and a list of facts

(“croissant and coffee”) on their own won’t do that. It has to have

emotional zing.”

So to layer on what you already do you could add, “the croissants look

great - do you make them here?” or “this coffee hits the spot, what a

blend is it?”

These things won’t trigger a massive conversation because baristas

often have a queue to serve over, but they are stepping stones and good

over

practice points.

We also have had to be realistic about how far some conversations, in

certain settings, can go. I think it’s entirely realistic that after

had

seconds someone will call time on talking about a camera. Even the

most skilled conversationalist would struggle.

That said by some people need fewer triggers. Some spill more slowly.

Being interested and curious - which you clearly are - is a great

springboard for conversation; we are after all hard-wired for

connection.

“To have a conversation you have to be able to imagine how what

you’re saying is going to land with the other person. And that takes

after empathy,” says Mills. Observation is also a great tool for

after

conversation: just hearing what others talk about. There’s a reason

talking about the weather is a stalwart in so many countries. It’s a

connection, it’s non-committal, it’s not too personal and you can test

the water with the other person.

Всероссийская олимпиада школьников. Английский язык. 2024-2025 уч г.

Муниципальный этап. 10-11 классы. Ответы и критерии оценивания

But like I am said, you have to be realistic. Some conversations will

never go beyond a few exchanges. Listen carefully to what people are

saying and instead of facts maybe think about feelings. So if someone

says, “We’re going on holiday to X” try something like “have you ever

been before? Are you excited about going?” Good luck!

следует руководствоваться следующими указаниями:

Лексическими ошибками считаются

• ошибки в неправильном употреблении слова в контексте;

• ошибки в словосочетании;

• пропуск слова, когда это не влияет на грамматическую структуру

предложения;

• ошибки в словообразовании (если не меняется часть речи: regular- unregular);

• послелоги во фразовых глаголах;

• ошибки в написании слов, которые меняют значение слова (think-thing, lose-

loose).

Грамматическими ошибками считаются

• ошибки в употреблении артиклей, предлогов, видовременных форм глаголов,

неличных форм глаголов, степеней сравнения прилагательных и наречий,

местоимений, ошибки в порядке слов в предложении и т.д.

• пропуск слова, влияющего на грамматическую структуру предложения

(пропуск подлежащего или сказуемого).

• ошибки в словообразовании, если меняется часть речи (contribute

contribution).

• употребление its вместо it’s или наоборот.

Орфографическими ошибками считаются

 ошибки в написании слов, которые не приводят к образованию нового слова

(different - differen).

 если один раз слово написано правильно, а другой раз неправильно

неправильное написание считать орфографической ошибкой

2. Однотипные ошибки считаются один раз.

3. При подсчете пунктуационных ошибок учитываются только следующие ошибки:

1) наличие точки в заголовке (при наличии заголовка);

2) отсутствие точки или восклицательного знака в конце предложения;

3) отсутствие вопросительного знака в конце вопроса;

4) отсутствие запятой при перечислении или в бессоюзном сложносочиненном

предложении;

6) отсутствие (или ошибка в употреблении) необходимых знаков препинания

при прямой речи или цитировании.

4. Ошибки в словах-связках (to my opinion - вместо in my opinion) учитываются по

критерию «Организация текста».

5. Ошибки в местоимениях считаются ошибкой в референте и являются логическими:

(Every person wants to know his mistakes. People use computers. I do not love him. -

логические ошибки).

Listening comprehension

For items 1-10 listen to a talk about a woman pilot and decide whether the

statements (1-10) are TRUE (A), or FALSE (B) according to the text you hear. You

will hear the text twice.

You have 20 seconds to study the statements.

(pause 20 seconds)

Now we begin.

Good morning. The subject of today's talk is the American aviation pioneer Amelia

Earhart. First of all, I'll give you some information about her early life and education,

before going on to look at her career, achievements and finally, her publications and

awards.

Amelia Earhart was born in Kansas, USA, in 1897 and moved to Chicago in 1914

when her father was fired from the Rock Island Railroad. After graduating from high

school in 1915, she went to Canada where she trained as a nurse’s aide. In 1919 she

attended Columbia University but gave up after a year to join her parents in

California.

Now I`d like to look at her early career. In 1920 Earhart went to her first air show and

was hooked. She took flying lessons and bought her first plane, which she flew to a

height of 14,000 feet in October 1922, a women’s world record. In 1925 she moved

to Boston and got a job as a social worker. During that time, she also wrote local

newspaper columns on flying.

What will Earhart be principally remembered for? She was the first woman to fly

solo non-stop across the Atlantic. On May 20 1932, she took off from New

Brunswick. She wanted to fly to Paris, but poor weather conditions and mechanical

problems forced her to land in Derry, Northern Ireland.

It was inevitable that Earhart would attempt a round-the-world flight and she left

Miami on June 1 1937. After stopping in South America, Africa, the Indian

subcontinent and south-east Asia, she arrived in New Guinea on June 29. She left on

July 27, but while she was crossing the Pacific, contact was lost. The US government

spent $4m looking for her, but she was never found.

Finally, I`d like to turn to her awards and publications. Earhart published two books

about her flying experiences: 20 Hours 40 Minutes and The Fun of It, but she went

missing before her third book was published. She was awarded the Distinguished

Flying Cross by Congress and the Cross of Knight of the Legion of Honour by the

French government.

For items 2-6 listen to a conversation between the manager of the fashion

department and Chloe, a new salesperson. Choose the correct answer (A, B or C) to

answer the questions 2-6. You will hear the text only once.

You now have 25 seconds to study the questions.

(pause 25 seconds)

Now we begin.

Manager: Hello Chloe, good to see you. We've got a little time before my next

meeting, so ... how are things going?

Chloe: Very well, thanks. I've really enjoyed my first week here. I've talked to a lot

of the trainees and served a few customers.

M: No problems, I hope?

C: Not really. There were just a couple of customers who were a bit difficult, but

they were OK in the end.

M: Good. Let me give you one or two tips while I have the time. First of all, many

trainees think they don't need to know anything about the rest of the store, but we've

found the best sales staff are not just fashion specialists, they also find out about the

rest of the store so they can help customers when they're looking for other sections.

So don’t forget, you'll need to answer questions about other departments, especially

cosmetics and jewelry.

C: Right, that’s good advice. By the way, I’ve noticed no one wears any kind of

uniform in this department. Most of the assistants seem to be wearing designer labels.

Is that your policy then?

M: Yes. We have no rules about uniforms. Staff can wear some of our fashions. You

see, you and your colleagues are models for our fashions as well as advisers.

C: Do you have any other tips for me, like how to approach customers? I don’t have

a lot of sales experience.

М: I know, but you’ve got the right personality. Look, the best piece of advice I can

give you is to give customers enough time to make up their minds without any

pressure. Give them a lot of attention and plenty of advice, but only when they need

it. It’s your job to judge the right moment. OK? Never oversell or put too much

pressure on a customer.
