Пояснительная записка

Настоящая рабочая тетрадь составлена в соответствии с Государственным образовательным стандартом базового уровня и требованиями к уровню подготовки специалистов средних профессиональных учебных заведений по дисциплине «Иностранный язык» и ориентирована на студентов колледжей, ранее изучавших английский язык.

Основная цель рабочей тетради – развить и автоматизировать навыки и умения правильно употреблять грамматические структуры как в устной, так и в письменной речи, предупредить и преодолеть типичные ошибки, возникающие вследствие интерференции родного языка.

Рабочая тетрадь базируется на тематическом, функционально-коммуникативном и дифференцирующем принципах. В связи с этим рабочая тетрадь состоит из ряда разделов, носящих тематический характер.

Последовательность упражнений внутри темы расположены в каждой главе по принципу нарастания сложности.

Рабочая тетрадь включает аналитические упражнения на идентификацию и дифференциацию грамматических явлений, тренировочные - на выработку автоматизма употребления изучаемых явлений, творческие – на использование их в речи в конкретных ситуациях, контролирующие – на перевод с русского языка на английский язык.

Мы стремились сделать упражнения информативными, содержательными, интересными для студентов и по возможности не слишком сложными по своему лексическому составу, с целью избежать дополнительных трудностей.

Мы надеемся, что данная рабочая тетрадь поможет нашим студентам более качественно овладеть английским языком.
