Surprisingly, in order to score high scores on the Unified State Exam in literature, it is not enough just to be able to write well and have a huge number of books read. No, this is certainly important and necessary, but we must remember that the final exam in the form of the Unified State Exam has a clear structure, and the examiners have certain criteria by which they evaluate the work of eleventh-graders. No matter how creative and original you are, if your work does not meet the basic requirements of the task, then, alas, you will not get 100 points. Therefore, in this article we will reveal all the secrets and give you useful tips, by listening to which you can get a high result and enter the university of your dreams.

As already noted, graduates taking the literature exam simply need to know exactly how the Unified State Examination in literature is assessed. In fact, everything is very simple and not as scary as it seems at first glance.

When completing 8 and 15 tasks that require a detailed answer of 5-10 sentences, you must give a direct and concise answer to the question.

1. we have on our website. Try not to deviate from the topic, do not use lengthy arguments, follow a simple scheme - thesis, evidence. Nothing overly complex is required of you; it is important to carefully read the excerpt from the given work of art, analyze it and give a short but clear answer to the question, citing evidence from the text as an example. The criteria are:
2. depth of judgments made
3. persuasiveness of arguments

following the norms of speech.

Questions 9 and 16 require you to compare a given passage from a literary work with two other texts. you can look on the website. The most important thing here is a convincing justification for why you think the examples you gave are from works of art suitable and how exactly do you find them similar. Do not forget that you need to correctly indicate the names of the works and their authors. Criteria by which your answers will be assessed:

1. inclusion of a work in a literary context
2. depth of judgments made

Since the exam is always a stressful situation for graduates, we advise you to think through examples of works under various topics, it is more convenient to do this in a table. Divide it into specific topics, for example, war, unrequited love etc. (you can take them from example KIMs), and select texts in which these problems occur. So at hour X it will be much easier for you, and you will be able to score the highest score for this task.

And finally, the last task is to write a long essay on one of the three proposed topics.

1. you can look on the website. Here you should show:
2. knowledge of literary text
3. knowledge of literary terms

literary outlook

1. The examiner will evaluate:
2. depth of understanding of the topic
3. the persuasiveness of the judgments given as arguments
4. level of theoretical and literary knowledge
5. validity of using the text of the work
6. compositional integrity
7. persuasiveness of arguments

consistency of presentation

The only advice we can give you when writing this essay is to prepare for it. You must know all the evaluation criteria and, following them, write a solid paper that will reflect the depth of your knowledge and the meaningfulness of the arguments you make.

What do you need to know?

Before you start preparing for the Unified State Exam in Literature, you should find out what the exam consists of, how much time is allotted for solving each task, what you need to read, and much more.

1. Let's start in order:

Graduates are given 3 hours 55 minutes. Believe me, this time is enough to complete and check all tasks. But, despite this, from year to year many graduates lose precious points precisely because they simply do not have time to answer all the questions or rewrite the essay completely. Therefore, we strongly recommend that everyone who is preparing to take the Unified State Exam in Literature practice writing a KIM within the time allotted in the exam. Record your time and objectively evaluate whether you have time to write, check and rewrite all your essays. If not, then try to reconsider your time expenditure, maybe it is more convenient for you to start with the last task, and then return to the first part of the work. Determine which maximum amount minutes you can spend answering this or that question and try not to exceed this limit.

1. How many tasks are there in the exam?

The Unified State Examination in literature consists of two parts. Part 1 is divided into 2 blocks - in the first you are required to answer 7 questions that test your knowledge of literary theory, and 2 questions with a detailed answer of 5-10 sentences. The entire first block is devoted to epic or dramatic types of literature. Block 2 concerns lyrics and also consists of 7 questions on theory and 2 questions, when answering which you must write a “small essay”.

Part 2 involves writing essays on one of three proposed topics. Each topic concerns a specific era (1 topic - Old Russian literature, literature of the 18th century or literature of the first half of the 19th century, topic 2 - the second half of the 19th century and topic 3 concerns literary works, written from the end of the 19th to the beginning of the 20th century). The essay must be at least 200 words.

1. What to read?

To pass the Unified State Exam in literature, it is enough to read the entire list fiction, compiled specifically for this exam, the so-called, which you can read on the website.

But they must immediately warn you if during all school years you haven't read almost anything from school curriculum, then it is impossible to catch up in 1 year. But if, on the contrary, you have always treated the list responsibly school literature, then you won’t have to read anything additional.

1. When will the results come?

Both the exam itself and the official website of the Unified State Examination will indicate the deadline for obtaining results. Don't worry, you won't be left in the dark. Try to remain calm, even if your literature results are delayed (this happens), you have already done everything in your power. And don’t be afraid, inspectors are not animals, they are just doing their job, and if you worked hard, your work will be appreciated.

How to prepare?

See previous point. Indeed, start preparing for the Unified State Exam in Literature if you haven’t already read most works are simply useless. If everything is in order with the list of literature you have read, then you should turn to the theory of literature. In the first part there are as many as 14 questions related to literary terms(genre and type of literature, size of the poem, etc.). All these questions are absolutely simple, so it will be very disappointing to lose your points on them. And to prepare, you just need to look through the knowledge of which will be tested, understand and analyze them in detail, then you will never confuse iambic with trochee.

Well, there is only one way to prepare for tasks with a detailed answer - training. Write as soon as possible more essays, try to comply with all the requirements, carefully re-read your works (it is very important to be able to notice your own mistakes), and, of course, it will be very good if there is a person who will check your literary achievements at least at first (I think your school teacher should not refuse such a request).

How is the exam going?

Exactly the same as any other Unified State Exam. You come to the exam point, leaving all electronic devices at home beforehand (you’ve been preparing hard all year, and you don’t need them, right?), go to a certain audience and wait for the exam to start. When the X-hour arrives, the observer once again voices in detail the rules of the event. Next, you start filling out the forms (take this seriously, do not forget to double-check that you have filled out everything correctly, otherwise it will be a shame if your name is not on a brilliantly done, hundred-point job).

When all organizational issues ends, you will finally have your CMM and can start working on it. Read the assignments very carefully! In a stressful situation, you can easily confuse Tolstoy with Dostoevsky, so reread not only your answers, but also your questions several times (even a perfectly written paper about the problem little man in Chekhov’s work will not be counted if the question was about Gogol). 3 hours and 55 minutes pass, you hand over all your completed forms and go home with peace of mind.

How did you pass the Unified State Exam in Literature in 2017?

Some statistics: in 2017 year of the Unified State Exam 43,548 graduates took the literature test, of which only 4.3% were unable to pass the threshold ( minimum score) at 32 points. And 44% of those who took the exam were able to score more than 61 points. So, dear graduates, not everything is so scary.

Every eleventh grader taking literature once asked in despair: “What does it take to pass the Unified State Exam in literature?” But you can’t even imagine how simple the answer is - you need to prepare. You don’t need to assume that if the exam requires you not to have a specific, only correct answer to a question, but a detailed answer in the form of an essay, then you can let the preparation process take its course and trust your intuition, and when writing essays, give free rein to your imagination and simply speculate on the given question. topic. This approach will not lead you to success, you must clearly know what is required of you, your essays must comply with the “requested” format, and the literature knowledge in your head must be clearly structured. Ideally, you need to have a good understanding of this or that historical context to better understand the themes of a particular author’s work. You must also be able to support your thoughts with quotes (which you need to know by heart), and this is only possible under one condition - you need to start preparing for the Unified State Exam in Literature in advance! Then you will not have any problems, and even if you are very emotional person(as everyone becomes when they pass the exam), you will be more calm and confident, and this is the key to an excellent result.

Today, literature is not the most common subject for passing the Unified State Exam, because many choose either computer science or English language. However, the maximum number of people who passed the exam 100 points, has been documented in the literature.

Unified State Exam 2017 answers on literature on the Internet

By typing in the search engine “ Answers KIM Unified State Exam 2017 June 7"or something like that, admire the groups, accounts in in social networks, forums on websites where they offer to get answers to the Unified State Exam a few hours before the exam. Please note that in some places they promise to send answers even 12 hours before! That is, the exam has not yet been held anywhere, but the answers are already being offered. How is this possible?

This, of course, is impossible. No one knows the contents of CMMs until they are opened at the examination site. Even observers and teachers don’t know. So, we conclude: scammers simply take advantage of the vulnerable position of graduates and, at the decisive hour, simply send them a compilation of tasks from open bank. The unfortunate examinee spends the whole day vomiting and tossing about, going to the exam with nothing, and it’s good if by some miracle he gets the minimum score. Coming home, he discovers that the ill-fated page on the VKontakte or Odnoklassniki website no longer exists, or simply no one responds to messages there.

So, now we know that you shouldn’t believe those who promise to send you answers to the 2017 Unified State Exam in Literature this minute, during the day, or at any time before the start of the exam in the easternmost city of our country. But, alas, we have unpleasant news for those who expect answers in eight hours or less: KIMs Unified State Exam in different regions are equivalent to each other in complexity and structure, but different in content. The benefit from the CMM, for example from Kamchatka, is the same as from the demo version of the CMM on the website of the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements (FIPI).

Download the key to solving all tests right now!

In view of the above, we advise you not to rely on ready-made answers. Show your fighting qualities and prove to yourself that no matter how bad your knowledge Russian literature, you are always able to mobilize and win in an honest way.

As already mentioned, you have to cope with 17 tasks. The essay is the last of them. On average, it should take you about two hours to write it. You choose the topic of your essay from three options.

The remaining 16 tasks are divided into two parts: 1) analysis of epic, lyro-epic or dramatic work; 2) analysis lyrical work. Most of them are closed questions with a short answer and putting a number on the form corresponding to the correct answer. But two tasks in each part will require you to provide a detailed answer to 5–10 sentences.

Be wary of the temptation to get ready-made answers, original CIMs or cheat sheets. Believe in yourself and good luck in the exam!

In 2017, I passed the Unified State Exam in literature with 65 points. On appeal, we managed to knock out only one primary point, which, when transferred to secondary ones, weighed the same. Therefore, in the end my result was only 66 points, which upset me very much.

This year I am pleased with the change in the assessment criteria, and it seems to me that now it has really become clearer what is expected and wanted from you, because last year at the appeal they could not tell me why exactly they reduced some of my points for detailed answers.

My failure

I think many have come across stories of people who know literature very well, but wrote the exam very poorly. Unfortunately, I also know many such examples, one of which is my own. Therefore, now I will tell you from my own experience what this may be caused by.

I failed the literature exam last year and passed with 66 points, which is very low for me, considering that I set myself the bar of 90+. I went through the entire list of literature, with the exception of a few works that were not very important, I carefully sorted everything out, my table was littered with notebooks with written works and tables and notes I had made on everything that was possible. I felt very confident and knew that I was not going empty-headed. I came across an option with works that I knew well, the topics of the essays were also successful, but in the end it all ended in my tears and a bad result. Why? Because I’ve never written a full sample and couldn’t keep track of the time!

I started writing the essay about 35-40 minutes before the end of work. Well, not rewriting, but writing! And since I was in a hurry and worried, realizing in advance that I had already failed it, I made a bunch of mistakes: in three sentences I wrote the word “history” 7-9 times, and different meanings, used the same words and figures of speech, the structure of the text was laid out in my head, but in the end I did not have time to finish the penultimate paragraph and did not write a conclusion at all. When we put down our pens, I began to re-read my work and was horrified, but, unfortunately, it was too late to correct anything.

My friend failed the exam because she did not understand the evaluation criteria well; she also knew the material quite well and studied with a tutor. She took the exam two years ago, and then the criteria were very vague and the work was assessed much more subjectively than now. In the Unified State Exam 2018, the criteria were made more clear (you can download a file at this link that contains the codifier, specification and demo version - literature), which I hope will benefit those who will take it this year.

Quite generally a large number people have their work grades reduced because of “factual shortcomings,” “some inaccuracies,” and the like, although this is not considered a mistake. Quite a lot of people fail at this: they write Good work without mistakes, but they begin to find fault with them for everything possible, just to lower their points. That is why it is best to write a paper using the most general phrases and generally accepted opinion about works. Often people begin to describe the answer too much, and then they stumble - they receive deductions for speech and factual errors and on appeal they only hear “it’s clear that you read and understand, but we can’t raise it for you, because this is not exactly what they are waiting for.” from you in this answer.” One thing is good - now the formulation of the criteria has become much less vague. Mini-conclusion: you need to write not very voluminously, without any special decorations speech and as objectively as possible.

Time and mistakes due to haste

As I already mentioned, I screwed up because I didn't have time to write my essay. But I didn’t have time because I spent too much time on drafts, and ended up rewriting for a very long time.

Don't use drafts to write an entire paper on them. Write only a plan on them and keywords, which you will use, because otherwise you simply won’t have time to write anything, but you have to not only write, but also check!

Plan

How many times did they repeat at school that it is very useful to write a plan? But many still do not like to devote his time, but he can really speed up the process of writing detailed answers and the essay itself. Although you can do much simpler with detailed answers - just throw in the keywords that you want to use and that help to reveal the topic - and follow them to write a paper.

As for the essay, I think it’s most convenient to first divide it into parts and write down the key words in them too. Then, while writing, the likelihood of repeating the same phrases and words decreases, and a structured thought can be expressed quickly and easily.

How much and for what

It is worth constantly keeping a beacon in your head, reminding you that time is not rubber. In our classroom, we were reminded of the time only five minutes before the end of the exam, so it’s better to keep an eye on it yourself.

I spent a lot of time on detailed answers, which led to a disastrous result. I advise you to spend 5-7 minutes thinking through your answer (writing down the keywords/plan, as I wrote above), and then 15-20 minutes writing it.

You shouldn’t delay the test either, but I think this is already understandable. Now, when I do samples, I first work with the test, and then, just before starting with detailed answers, I read a passage from the prose. Because most often in the test there is nothing related to the passage at all, only to the work as a whole or to the definitions. And if you first read the text and then take the test, then most likely you will have to re-read it again to get a detailed answer. I also often do this with lyrics, first I go through numbers with terms, and only then, when I need to determine what techniques the author used, what size the poem was written in and when answering questions 15 and 16, I read the poem itself.

The test takes on average 15-20 minutes. It seems to me that it is more convenient to check after, but then you need to be sure to leave yourself some time. It turned out that I simply did not immediately transfer everything to the forms, and at the end of the work, during the transfer, I checked myself again.

This leaves about 100-120 minutes for writing and checking. Just 10-15 minutes to plan and you can write calmly, sometimes giving yourself time to think. Because, again, going back to the time of my exam, I wrote almost without thinking due to the fact that I was in a hurry: I just wrote without stopping, and this obviously turned out to be that I simply did not have time to follow the lexical repetitions, actual errors and the construction of the sentence as a whole.

It’s best to finish your essay about 20 minutes before the end so that you have time to re-read everything you’ve written. Because you can’t check detailed answers right away best idea. Instead, it would be preferable to switch thoughts to something else, and then re-read it - this way you can better see the errors.

What might surprise you on the exam?

When you sit in class and look at the form that comes your way, you may think that it is a little different from what you expected. Let's find out why.

Lyrics

You may easily come across poems that are not from the codifier, as was the case with me, for example. It’s not that it’s more complicated, it’s just that I’ve been tormented for a long time by the question, why then do we need a codifier and selected authors at all, if you can come across a poem not related to them, and for comparison you can cite works not only from the codifier, but in principle from Russian literature of a certain time.

I came across a poem that I saw for the first time, and for comparison I quoted Bunin “I remember a long winter evening”, and everything was fine with me. However, it was a shame that I learned a lot of poems, and in the end I used the one that I knew by heart since the fifth grade.

Detailed answers

Also, the wording of questions for detailed answers may be completely different from those that were in the samples. After all, during training, questions tend to be repeated quite often, but in work anything can come across. But the essence of the question does not depend on the wording! In essence, they are all very monotonous, they simply lend themselves to some kind of “distortion” just to confuse those taking the exam. So there's no need to panic, you just need to think about what it's most like.

For example, in your work you may come across a question about the conflict of heroes, but the wording will be “socio-philosophical disputes”, or “confrontation between noble and vile heroes”. Or in a question about nature there might be something like “how does the hero compare himself to a cedar?”

This is all very simple, but the clarifications can sometimes be confusing. In the end, it's best to boil it down to general definition, be it conflict, emotional experiences, the connection between man and nature, and so on.

Test part

I personally was also shocked by the task with quotes. Excerpts of replicas from the story “Ionych” by A.P. were given. Chekhov, and it was necessary to compare them with the characters who pronounced them. Of course, it was necessary to focus on the characteristics of the characters, but since one quote still had to remain superfluous, and it was not possible to highlight key phrases/features of speech everywhere, I could not cope with this task.

Structure of long answers

It is very important to pay attention to the speech and the material that is used in the work.

If you are not one hundred percent sure that the quote is used correctly and accurately, then it is better not to write it.

If there is no one hundred percent certainty that this particular hero performed exactly this action, then again it is better not to mention it.

If the name of the hero is poorly remembered, then it is better to call him “the main character” or simply give his characteristics (whose relative he is, what he looks like, who he is by profession, status, and so on).

You also need to watch out for repetitions, tautologies, and speech errors. For example, I accidentally used the word “story” in three different meanings and because of this I wrote it six times in three or four sentences. And I noticed, unfortunately, already when the exam time was over.

You definitely need to pay attention to how often you use the names of the characters. The use of synonyms will help you with this: not just Bazarov, but a friend of Arkady Kirsanov, a nihilist; not just Natasha Rostova, but a sister, daughter, lover, Tolstoy’s favorite heroine (one of) and so on.

It is also necessary to diversify the work with synonyms in the case of verbs. You should not use only “the author described” and “the author showed”; there are a lot of words that can replace such formulations, and somewhere it’s generally better to construct a sentence differently, otherwise it turns out very monotonous and ugly.

Your opinion

This, of course, is very sad, but under no circumstances should you write your opinion. As I have already written several times, it is best to reduce everything to objectivity.

During the exam, no one cares what you think about certain topics. The examiners need to see your knowledge of theory and material. Therefore, you cannot use any “I think”, “I believe”, “In my opinion” and so on, which is what we are taught, on the contrary, when preparing for the Unified State Exam in Russian. Therefore, summing up such an intermediate result, I advise you to refresh your memory of the structure from time to time writing and criteria for detailed answers.

I hope my advice will help you avoid my mistakes and write the Unified State Examination in literature with a good score. The main thing is to always remember about time and the fact that none of the assessors are interested in looking at your excellent writing skills. There are criteria - you need to meet them. You shouldn’t think that passing the exam well is a sky-high and impossible goal, you just need to know which way is best to approach it. Take your time, learn clichés and don’t be scared if you suddenly receive a form asking for an analysis of works that you see for the first time.
