Розробка серії завдань з контролю аудіювання англійською мовою при проведенні учнівських олімпіад (стр. 8 из 9)

In September of 1908, in Virginia, Orville showed Americans that people could fly. He lifted his plane into the air and swung around an army field one and a half times before he landed. The crowd of watchers rushed forward "screaming as loudly as they could, overwhelmed by the miracle that had taken place before their eyes."

Try to imagine that scene in 1908. For thousands and thousands of years, men and women looked at birds and dreamed that they too could lift themselves into the air. Some tried. Mythical Icarus, back in ancient days, took birds’ feathers and a frame and made something like a hang glider. But when he soared into the air the sun melted the wax that held the feathers and Icarus fell into the sea. Others, who we know were real, had built gliders, or hot-air balloons that floated on the wind. What the Wrights did was different. They didn’t depend on the wind. They used their intelligence to build a machine that conquered the skies. They solved the problem of flight. Now everyone believed it – people could fly!

On the first of August I set sail in the steamer Caledonia for England. At four o'clock in the afternoon, we were out of sight of land; one by one, we had taken leave of every object which could be seen from the departing vessel; and now nothing was visible to us but the sky, the ocean meeting it in its wide, unbroken circle, the sun gradually sinking in the west, and our small but only house, the ship. How strange, how inspiring the scene was! So lonely, so magnificent, so solemn! At last the sun set, gilding the clouds, and looking, to my tearful eyes, as if that too said farewell! Then the moon appeared; and the long, indefinite line of light from where her rays first touched the waters to our ship, and the dancing of the waves as they crossed it, catching the light as they passed, were so beautiful that I was unwilling to leave the deck when the hour for rest arrived.

The wind was against us, and we did not get on very fast; but I enjoyed the novel scene the next day, and passed all my time on deck, watching the sailors and the passengers, and noticing the difference between Englishmen and Americans.

On Sunday it was very cold, and the wind, still contrary, rose higher and higher; it was impossible to set any sail, but I still kept on deck, and thus avoided sickness. Soon after breakfast I saw a white foam rising in different places occasionally, and was told that it was whales spouting; I saw a great number, and enjoyed it highly. Presently some one called out, "An iceberg!" and, far off against the sky, I saw this floating wonder. It was very beautiful; such a splendid white, so calm and majestic, and so lonely; it was shaped, as I thought, like an old cathedral, but others thought like a sleeping lion, taking what I called the ruined tower for his head and mane.

Soon after this, the man on the lookout cried, "Steamship America;" and in a few moments more we saw her coming rapidly towards us with her sails all set, for the wind was fair for her. Captain Leitch then told me that he should stop his vessel and send a boat on board, and that he would send a letter by it if I would write one quickly; to others he said the same thing. In a moment the deck was cleared, and in a few more moments all had returned with their letters; and never was there a more beautiful sight than these two fine steamers maneuvering to stop at a respectful distance from each other; then our little boat was lowered, and O, how pretty it was to see her dancing over the rough waves to the other steamer! We sent to the America the sad news of the loss of the Kestrel. After what seemed to us a long time, the boat returned and brought papers, etc., but no important news; and in a few moments the two steamers curtsied to each other, and each went on her way.

Висновки

В цій курсовій роботі досліджена розробка серії завдань з контролю аудіювання англійською мовою при проведені учнівських олімпіад.

Актуальність цього дослідження має педагогічний характер.

Об’єктом дослідження являється аудіювання, як один з видів мовленнєвої діяльності та засіб перевірки мовленнєвих навичок під час вивчення іноземної мови.

Предмет дослідження: дослідженовиди та функції контролю аудіювання іноземною мовою.

Мета роботи: досліджено особливості розробки тестових завдань для контролю аудіювання англійською мовою за форматом Всеукраїнської учнівської олімпіади.Придатність предметних тестів для діагностики знань крім їх об’єктивності випливає з того, що цей вид контролю дає можливість скласти питання в об’ємі всього предметного курсу, до того ж результати їх можна добре порівнювати між собою. Все це одночасно дозволяє встановити діапазон індивідуальних відмінностей учнів. Деякі сторони знань, умінь та навичок предметний тест діагностувати все ж таки не може, наприклад вміння виражати свої думки в усній формі, а також глибину знань в області даної теми; обмежені також можливості перевірки попередніх знань.

Та все ж тестовий контроль спрощує перевірку робіт учителем і дає змогу організувати рубіжний та підсумковий контроль, активізувати діяльність учнів шляхом охоплення контролем більшої кількості школярів, перевірити знання великого за об’ємом матеріалу за невеликий проміжок часу. Для забезпечення ефективного навчання іноземної мови в середньому навчальному закладі та отримання об’єктивних показників навчальних досягнень з предмета "Іноземна мова" необхідно також створити надійну систему контролю оволодіння іноземною мовою. Однією з найбільш результативних методик контролю при вивченні іноземної мови, як показали результати багатьох досліджень та експериментів, є тестова методика.

Summary

Our work is devoted to a problem of listening comprehensive control. The control of pupils’ linguistic skills is very important and actual in modern pedagogic.

The work may be interesting for teachers which want to develop pupils’ knowledge and skills in foreign language communities.

The object of our work are the types of the listening comprehensive control.

The aim is to design the complex of tasks for checking listening comprehension in English Olympiads.

In our work we analyzed the types of control and especially the types of test, the particularity of listening comprehensives’ texts.

The practical part of our work contents the texts, what are recommended for listening comprehension (9-11 form), and complex of test tasks.

So in our work we consider some ways of creation of different types of tests.
