The USE in German is one of the elective exams for high school graduates. In terms of its structure and complexity, it practically does not differ from other final exams on foreign languages. The main difficulty of this exam lies in the large number of tasks - 46 with a very limited time - 180 minutes (3 hours). Thus, it takes a little less than four minutes to complete one task.

After reviewing the general information about the exam, you can immediately begin to prepare. The KIM USE variant of 2016 does not differ significantly from last year, now the passing score has increased, and the number of tasks has decreased.

EGE assessment in German

As with most foreign language exams, minimum score for German is 17 primary points, which when transferred to the test is 22. To overcome the threshold with minimum scores, it is enough to score 17 primary points, which is equivalent to 17 correctly solved tasks from section 3 or 2 and 3.

The structure of the USE test in German

In 2016, the test consists of four sections, including 40 tasks.

Section 1: Listening (1-9), the answers to the tasks are a number or a sequence of numbers.

Section 2: Reading (10-18), the answers to the tasks are a number or a sequence of numbers.

Section 3: Grammar and Vocabulary (19–38), the answer to the task is a number, a word or several words, written without spaces and punctuation marks.

Section 4: Writing (39-40), consists of two tasks - writing a personal letter and a statement with elements of reasoning.

The tasks of the unified state exam are divided into 3 categories - A, B and C.

The tasks of part A are the so-called multiple choice, where three or four possible answers are offered for each question, and one correct one must be chosen from the proposed options.

Part B is somewhat more complicated, there can be tasks of two main types: a) fill in the gaps in the text, putting the proposed option in the correct grammatical form; b) given, for example, six texts and seven titles to them - you need to find the extra one and correlate the rest with each other. Answers are already given here, you just need to put them in the correct grammatical form, or correlate the answers with the questions, discarding the extra option.

Part C is already aerobatics, here you need to compose a coherent structured text yourself, using grammar and vocabulary correctly.

The total duration of the exam is 180 minutes.

Sounds intimidating. But in reality this is not so. There are certain tricks on how to best cope with tasks of each type and save time. We will look at what tasks can be found in each part and how best to solve them.

1. Listening

This part mainly tests how well you understand German by ear. The announcer will repeat each task twice with a pause of about 15 seconds.

Success strategy : go over the questions of the assignment to the text and answers before listening! At the time when it will be said in Russian “Now you will perform tasks in listening. Each text will sound twice ... ”you can not listen to this, but already read the assignments themselves! So instead of the prescribed 20 seconds, there will be several times more time to read the questions and answer options for them. Sometimes even without hearing the text, one can assume that one of the options is wrong, because it simply sounds too illogical.

If the student has two similar options that differ in one small detail, you should pay attention to this detail - perhaps this is where the authors of the task wanted to catch you!

Example: Wo wollte Peter nach seinem Studium arbeiten?

1) bei einem Automobilhersteller in Deutschland

2) bei einem großem Autokonzern in den USA

3) in der großen Autowerkstatt bei seinem Vater

Reasoning logic: Option number three sounds rather illogical - in the first two options, the emphasis is on the country - Deutschland or USA, most likely, one of them will turn out to be correct. But in the third option, as in the second, there is the word “groß”, perhaps here they wanted to catch you. Therefore, when listening, even if they are not clear individual words, or synonyms are used in the text (for example, Produzent instead of Hersteller, or Unternehmen instead of Konzern) - pay attention to a) the country, b) the place - the manufacturing plant or workshop. This approach saves a lot of time and allows you to concentrate!

They will also listen to a few statements that will need to be correlated with headings or topics. Then a dialogue will sound, to which they will offer tasks to choose from according to the richtig / falsch / steht nicht im Text principle. And at the end there will be an interview, after which 9-10 questions will follow, where you will need to choose one correct answer out of three options.

The main thing is to concentrate on listening and carefully transfer the correct options to the answer sheet! The announcers will read the text clearly, twice, even if some word remains incomprehensible, do not panic, the task can certainly be solved without this word! And - we buy time to read the questions with the help of a little trick, which has already been mentioned above.

2. Reading

This section will test whether the student is able to understand the written text well, which is already clear from the title of this part. Most people perceive the written text more easily than by ear, so everyone copes with this part of the exam without problems.

In the first task, you will need to choose the correspondence between small texts (volume 5-6 lines) and headings to them. One heading will be superfluous, so the authors of the exam will deliberately formulate them in such a way that it seems as if two headings fit one text. You should think about where the catch is and why one of the two similar options is wrong.

Success strategy: first read the questions and answers quickly, then the text! When reading the text, we do not try to understand verbatim and translate each sentence - we catch the meaning! We look at where the words and phrases from the questions are found in the text and what is said for each of the questions. Maybe the answer to the first question will be found only in the second paragraph of the text, and you have been reading the second sentence from the first paragraph for five minutes in the third circle - in vain! Therefore, it is important to first familiarize yourself with the questions, and only then proceed to reading the text itself.

3. Grammar and vocabulary

Everything is simple here - no tricks, a minimum of interpretation, a maximum of pure knowledge of grammar and understanding of vocabulary. In tasks B4-B10, sentences and words for them will be given, which must be substituted into the gaps in the correct grammatical form.

For example, givensentence: Wo die Traumziele der Deutschen liegen, _________ man auf den Landeskarten des neu erschienenen Reiseführers „Destination 2013“ von Marco Polo sehen.

And next to this sentence is the verb KÖNNEN, which must be inserted in place of the gap in the correct form. The man part already tells us that kann is the correct answer.

Tasks B11-B16 are similar to the previous ones, with the difference that you first need to transform the word: for example, make a verb with the same root from a noun (Arbeit - arbeiten, aufmerksam - Aufmerksamkeit, Frankreich - französisch, etc.), and then in the right grammatical form of this word in a sentence to insert.

For example, givenheresuchsentence: Auch die ____________ Journalisten haben über die letzten Wahlen im Busndestag berichtet.

And next to it is the word FRANKREICH, from which we will first make the adjective französisch (because there is already a noun in our phrase - Journalisten), and then we will put this adjective in the desired form - französischen.

Finally, in the “grammar” part, there will be a few fairly simple questions from part A, where you will need to choose one correct one from four options in the text with gaps (again, multiple choice).

We recommend that you spend about 40 minutes to complete the tasks in this section.

Success strategy : correctly and clearly, in accordance with the norms, enter your answers from part B in the answer sheet! Pay special attention to the spelling of ü, ö, ä and ß - for this, you should read the instructions in advance! It is also necessary during the preparation for the exam to intensively repeat the grammar - the declension of nouns and adjectives, endings, plural, exceptions to the rules (since they are most often caught on!), tense forms of verbs (especially in the past tense).

4. Letter

The written part consists of two tasks, where you will have a chance to demonstrate your level of German language proficiency in all its glory. Here, the written text will be checked for compliance with the requirements specified in the task - volume, subject, structure. In addition, the choice of vocabulary and grammatical constructions is very important! Mistakes will reduce the score, so it's better to write less but better.

The first task of this part (C1) is writing. Letters can be formal (official letters to strangers) and informal (letters to friends or acquaintances, postcards). They differ from each other, first of all, in design: we will start a friendly letter with an informal greeting, we will turn to “you”, and we will also end informally. In this task, most likely, they will be asked to write an answer to a letter from a friend or acquaintance from Germany (or a postcard). At the same time, the task, of course, will indicate what you will need to mention in your letter (for example, ask in more detail about an event, ask a few questions on a specific topic, etc.)

Success strategy : it is worth learning in advance the typical phrases of greeting and farewell, pay special attention to commas (in German, punctuation rules are different from Russian ones!). It is very important to follow the structure suggested by the examiners - if the assignment says that at the end you need to ask three questions on the topic, then you need to ask three questions, not five or two. And always on the topic, in this case, questions like “How are you?” and "What's new?" will not be taken into account.

Here is an example of how to start and end a letter:

Hallo Anna, / Liebe Anna,

danke für deinen letzten Brief und die Postkarte aus Berlin.

Hat mich sehr gefreut zu erfahren, dass…

Freue mich bald von dir zu hören!

Viele Grüße / Liebe Grüße

Lena Iwanowa

In the second task of the written part C2, you will need to write a detailed statement (in fact, a mini essay or essay) on the proposed topic. Here it will be taken into account how logically and structured the student expresses his thoughts and argues - of course, in German. It is very important to keep the length and structure proposed by the examiners, such as: introduction, main body (arguments for and against, your personal opinion), conclusion.

Success strategy : At home, be sure to practice writing reasoned texts on various topics. Simply coming up with abstracts on completely different topics (German: "Without knowledge of German in modern world do not live”, Internet: “Online learning opens new era in education”, sports and so on) and find arguments for and against in German. Having written such an essay ten times, firstly, you don’t waste time building the text and selecting introductory phrases (because you already know by heart where you start and how you finish), and secondly, in general, you find arguments for and against faster. It is important to remember: there simply will not be time to write the entire text first completely on a draft, and then rewrite it without errors on a clean copy! Therefore, on the draft we write only a sketch (plan) + the main arguments for and against, without introductory phrases!

Introductory phrases should come by themselves, after you have written a test essay ten times. During such training, a set of phrases will be developed that can be used as a framework when writing any text of this type.

For example, you can start an essay by restating the question in your own words and asking a rhetorical question like Stimmt das wirklich so?

The main part can be built using introductory phrases and constructions:

Erstens, … Zweitens, … Drittens, …

Einerseits….. Andererseits…… Außerdem….

Dafür spricht die Tatsache, dass… Dagegen spricht, dass…

Ein Argument dafür ist….. Ein Argument dagegen ist /wäre, dass….

CounterargumentscananticipaterhetoricalquestiontypeWas spricht gegen….?orintroductorywordsandconstructionsandererseits, eine andere Meinung ist /wäre, dagegen spricht die Tatsache, dass…andothers.

Andlastparagraphconclusion: Zusammenfassend kann man sagen, dass… / Zum Schluss möchte ich betonen, dass…

Important: a clear structure will allow you not to be distracted from the main idea and not to “pour water”, as well as save time for logical transitions. 80 minutes are allotted for the written part, so it is important to correctly allocate this time and effort: for example, take 20-30 minutes for writing (20 minutes for preparation and draft, 10 minutes for writing on a clean copy). It is worth taking more time for an essay, say, 40-50 minutes (20-25 minutes for preparation and a rough draft, 10 minutes for writing on a clean copy). In the remaining five minutes of the total time, it is worth re-reading what was written and correcting the mistakes that caught your eye after one reading.



Passing the exam in German with excellent marks is not so difficult. How? - Read below, get acquainted with the main structure of the exam and the options for tasks. Practical advice from Deutsch Online will help you score highest mark and develop the right strategy in preparation.

The USE (Unified State Examination) in German consists of four sections:

- listening
- Reading
-
Grammar and vocabulary
- Letter

Previously, graduates also passed the oral part (Speaking) after a written exam, where one-on-one with a teacher from another school they had to conduct a dialogue, as well as present a detailed monologue on the proposed topic. Subsequently oral part of the exam canceled, and today's exam consists of only four of the above parts.

The tasks of the unified state exam are divided into 3 categories - A, B and C.

Tasks part A are the so-called multiple choice, where for each question three or four answers are offered, and from the proposed options you need to choose one correct one.

Part B somewhat more difficult, there may be tasks of two main types: a) fill in the gaps in the text, putting the proposed option in the correct grammatical form; b) given, for example, six texts and seven headings to them - you need to find the extra one and correlate the rest with each other. Answers are already given here, you just need to put them in the correct grammatical form, or correlate the answers with the questions, discarding the extra option.

Part C- this is already aerobatics, here you need to compose a coherent structured text yourself, using grammar and vocabulary correctly.

The total duration of the exam is 180 minutes.

1. Listening

This part mainly tests how well you understand German by ear. The announcer will repeat each task twice with a pause of about 15 seconds.

Success strategy: go over your eyes on the questions of the task to the text and answers before listening! At the time when it will be said in Russian “Now you will perform tasks in listening. Each text will sound twice ... "you can not listen to this, but already read the assignments themselves! So instead of the prescribed 20 seconds, you will have several times more time to read the questions and answer options for them.

You will also be given to listen to several statements that will need to be correlated with headings or topics.

Counterarguments can be prefaced with a rhetorical question like Was spricht gegen….? or introductory words and designs andererseits, eine andere Meinung ist /wäre, dagegen spricht die Tatsache, dass… and others.

After listing, say, three arguments for and two arguments against, you need to weigh the pros and cons: Wenn man die Vorteile und Nachteile vergleicht, kann man sehen, dass...- and express your opinion: Meiner Meinung nach, …. / Ich bin der Meinung, dass… / Ich bin davon überzeugt, dass…
