Готовимся к олимпиаде

Памятка для учащихся: как готовится к олимпиаде

Олимпиада -  всегда психологическое напряжение, стресс. И это нормальная реакция организма. Легкие эмоциональные всплески полезны, они положительно сказываются на работоспособности и усиливают умственную деятельность. Но эмоциональное перенапряжение зачастую оказывает обратное действие.                                

Советы участникам олимпиад:
Нужно ставить перед собой цель, которая вам по силам. Не стоит бояться ошибок.Известно, что не ошибается тот, кто ничего не делает.
Необходимо заблаговременно ознакомиться с правилами и процедурой олимпиады, это снимет эффект неожиданности.                          
Начинай готовиться к олимпиаде заранее, понемногу, по частям, сохраняя спокойствие.
Если очень трудно собраться с мыслями, постарайся запомнить сначала самое лёгкое, а потом переходи к изучению трудного материала.
Тренировка в решении заданий поможет ориентироваться в разных типах заданий, рассчитывать время.
            
Подготовка к олимпиаде требует достаточно много времени, но она не должна занимать абсолютно все время. Последние24 часа должны уйти на подготовку организма, а не знаний. Внимание и концентрация ослабевают, если долго заниматься однообразной работой. Меняйте умственную деятельность на двигательную. Оптимально делать 10-15 минутные перерывы после40-50 минут занятий. 
              Питание должно быть 3-4разовым, калорийным и богатым витаминами. Употребляй в пищу грецкие орехи,молочные продукты, рыбу, мясо, овощи, фрукты, шоколад, полезно больше пить простую или минеральную воду, зеленый чай, но нельзя переедать. Соблюдайте режим сна и отдыха.

Рекомендации по заучиванию материала:

               Заучиваемый материал рекомендуется повторять сразу в течение 15-20 минут, через 8-9 часов и через 24часа. Полезно повторять материал за 15-20 минут до сна и утром, на свежую голову. При каждом повторении нужно осмысливать ошибки и обращать внимание на более трудные места.

Как вести себя во время олимпиады:

Перед олимпиадой обязательно выспись.
Одежду,письменные принадлежности, «талисман» – приготовь заранее, в день перед олимпиадой. С собой обязательно должны быть: минимум 2 ручки, карандаш, точилка,стиральная резинка, носовой платок. Одежда должна быть спокойных тонов.
За день до тестирования постарайся ничего не учить. Если чего-то недоучил, лучше не пытайся. Дай отдохнуть организму.
Слушай преподавателя внимательно, чтобы не отвлекаться в дальнейшем и не задавать лишних вопросов.
Не торопись! Читай задание до конца. Спешка не должна приводить к тому, что ты поймёшь задание по первым словам, а концовку придумаешь сам. Но помни, что время регламентировано, а тебе нужно сделать тест и заполнить бланк.
Просмотри все вопросы и начни с тех, в ответах которых ты не сомневаешься. Тогда ты успокоишься и войдёшь в рабочий ритм.
Действуй методом исключения! Последовательно исключай те ответы, которые явно не подходят.
Если ты сомневаешься в правильности ответа, тебе сложно сделать выбор. Доверься интуиции!
Оставь время для проверки своей работы хотя бы для того, чтобы успеть пробежать глазами и заметить явные ошибки.

Listening Comprehension Test.     Form 10,  2014/2015

A Velveteen Rabbit
Shabby – потрепанный
A lawn – лужайка
" Fancy all this fuss for a toy!" - стоит ли так переживать…!
Scarlet fever – скарлатина
A tear [tie] – cлезa
There was once a Velveteen Rabbit, and at the beginning he was really so splendid that the Boy loved him and never parted with him. But sometimes the Rabbit was put with the other toys in the nursery and could listen to their stories about Real Things. "What is that?" the Rabbit asked the Wooden Horse who had lived a very long life. " Real isn't how you are made. It's a thing that happens to you. When a child really loves you for a long time, then you become Real. It doesn't happen all at once. It takes a long time. But once you are real, you'll never become unreal again", explained the Wooden Horse. The Velveteen Rabbit thought it would be wonderful if this nursery Magic ever happened to him.
So time went on and the little rabbit was very happy though he was getting shabbier and shabbier. And once when the Boy was called away to go out to some tea, the rabbit was left alone on the lawn. Later that evening the Nurse looked for him but couldn't find him. The Boy cried that he wouldn't fall asleep until he had his Rabbit. "Fancy all this fuss for a toy!" said his mother." He isn't a toy! He's real!". The little Rabbit heard him say that magic word and he knew that what the Wooden Horse had said to him had become true at last.
The magic had happened to him. He was Real. The Boy himself had said that. And into his button eyes there came a wise knowing expression.
But then one day, the Boy fell ill with scarlet fever. The little Rabbit lay still at his side under the bedclothes as he didn't want anyone to notice him. He was afraid they would throw him away. Time passed and the Boy got better and was allowed to get up. It only remained to carry out the doctor's orders. All the books and toys that the Boy had played with had to be burnt. So the little Rabbit was put into a sack with old books and a lot of rubbish. And while the Boy was sleeping in another room with a new Velveteen Rabbit, the old one felt so miserable and lonely that suddenly a tear, a real tear trickled down his little velvet nose and fell to the ground.

Listening Comprehension     Form 11    2014/2015

I've lived in Denmark now for nearly four years, and I've changed a lot within this time. I've become more fashionable, more ... Danish - if I'm allowed to say that.
But one thing hasn't changed about me. And that is my inability to cooperate with or understand Danish supermarket culture. As someone who was raised in the United States, I've always been used to grocery stores with a selection of food choices. And a high level of service. In an American store, one can find a kind of product with a thousand different brandings and types. But when I walk into a Danish grocery store I want to burst into tears because I'm so bored with the selection. There're few fruits and vegetables. Everything is so boring and plain and demanding of hard kitchen work that you just wish some American food companies could establish here and import some ready made dinners.
I know I should be ashamed of saying this, but I do miss American convenience. In Denmark, making a homemade meal requires at least 30 dollars spent at the grocery and 2 hours in the kitchen. For instance, at my local grocery store, nothing is allowed to be under 4 dollars. That's right, it's called organic and healthy food, free of anything synthetic. But I do miss synthetic food.
The whole Danish, "do-it-yourself" attitude prevails! Take, for example, bagging your food - no one will do it for you. The only way to really understand what I mean is to imagine that if you've come from America and you're used to certain things with service and product selection and then you move here - it is truly different in Denmark. I have lived in Iceland, England and Spain and I still find the grocery stores much better and with more selection in those countries. However, how could anyone take me serious when I say, "I miss synthetic food"? That sounds sarcastic, and I see that it is wrong and disgusting that American food is filled up with so much nonsense. I really appreciate that in Denmark the food is free of everything unnatural and it can be seen on Danes - most of them look healthy and fit here. But once in a while I miss the vastness of an American grocery store!
I want to add that I am Danish, I was born in Denmark, lived here for 5 years as a child and then moved to America where I lived most of my life. I moved back here a few years ago and I love the country. I speak Danish. I'm not an immigrant in Denmark who is unsatisfied with the way of life here and who should move back to the States. I'm a student and of course it takes 2 hours to make a meal on my own.
