One of the two compulsory subjects in which ninth grade graduates take exams is the Russian language. It is considered quite difficult by foreigners. But it is not at all easy for native speakers. All years schooling inquisitive students try to master the intricacies of this science - speak and write, read and think freely in their native language. Are there any changes to the OGE in the Russian language in 2018 that are worth paying attention to? We’ll try to figure it out now.

Native does not mean simple

Not all schoolchildren understand the importance and complexity of learning the Russian language. And not only them. A lot of blunders and ridiculous typos are found in the media. Even television and radio announcers, and other people for whom language proficiency is a professional responsibility, sometimes make gross mistakes.

The other day, a correspondent for one of the central channels, while reporting from the State Duma about new laws in support of families with children, twice said “material capital” instead of ““. The accents are generally gloomy, they are placed “as it is convenient for anyone.”

Modern young people are accustomed to communicating on social networks, or via SMS, where they are not particularly worried about the literacy of expressing thoughts. We began to read less - and in general, and especially, interest in Russian classics as a model of mastery of words fell. Therefore, even visual memory does not help remember the correct spellings.

The OGE in the Russian language of grade 9 in 2018 forces you to work through many different tasks when preparing for it. This includes testing knowledge of literary language norms and the ability to use the rules of vocabulary, grammar and punctuation.

Dates of the OGE in Russian in 2018

Dates for state final certification after finishing 9th grade:

• April 25, 2018 tests can be completed ahead of schedule; or on a reserve day - May 7;
• May 29 will be the date of the main exam (in reserve - June 20, 28 and 29);
• 4 September an additional stage of testing will come; The date September 17, 2018 has also been reserved.

In 2018, no changes were made to tickets in Russian. There are no surprises in the testing regulations. The student has the right to prepare for the answer for 235 minutes. You can use a spelling dictionary, but only the one provided by the exam organizers. You cannot bring smartphones and any other gadgets, cameras, your reference books, cheat sheets and other “auxiliary” materials into the classroom where the state examination is taking place.

During the exam you can neither leave (without the permission of the commission) nor move around the audience; All kinds of conversations and other exchange of information with neighbors are prohibited, and even more so, the removal of any materials from the premises where the exam is taking place. Violators will be expelled from the exam and receive a well-deserved failure.

Innovations: teach to speak!

There is a joke that parents spend a whole year teaching their child to speak, and spend their whole life trying to teach him to be silent. As with any joke, there is some truth here. The child actively absorbs features speech behavior adults, copies them. And the speech of others, to put it mildly, is usually far from ideal. If we at least master the rules of written expression of thoughts at school, then with oral speech everything is much worse.

That is why in the State Academic Assessment of the Russian language in 2018 will also be included oral part, which was called: “Speaking”. Here, 9th grade graduates must show their oral communication skills, the ability to clearly formulate thoughts and express them competently. The culture of speech must be improved, the authors of the innovation are sure. In modern society, communication skills are very important; they will help you both succeed in your profession and not get lost in society.

Oral part of the exam: speaking

How much in our lives depends on mutual understanding! In turn, in order for us to be understood correctly, we must be able to express our thoughts clearly, competently, and moderately emotionally. The oral part of the OGE in the Russian language in 2018 will also help you learn communication skills. Here students will be able to demonstrate their oratorical talents in a monologue, the ability to conduct an equal dialogue, as well as the skills of reading text with adequate intonation and accurate emotional coloring. There will be tasks on retelling what you read and on the ability to substantiate your opinion.

In 2018, ninth-graders will undergo such tests for the first time. The CMM structure provides 4 tasks:

• reading a fragment of scientific and journalistic style, for which you can score 2 points;
• a retelling of what you read, supplemented by analysis, your own comments, and the inclusion of additional information is also welcome. The maximum for this task is also 2 points;
• a monologue on a chosen topic will bring the examinee a maximum of 2 points;
• dialogue with the examiner, which can add another 3 points to the student’s treasury.

Additional bonuses are also provided. For compliance with literary language standards, examiners have the right to add 2 points for the first and second tasks. And impeccable speech when performing tasks number three and four will allow the student to earn another 3 points. As a result, the maximum score for speaking is 14.

Only 15 minutes are allocated to complete all four tasks of the oral block. Experts believe that the main topics of exam texts will most likely be biographies of famous scientists and other major personalities.

There will be no marks given for this part of the test.. Based on the preliminary scores, the examiners will make a verdict: either “ test", or " failure" To control and prevent possible disagreements, an audio recording must be made in the room where the testing will take place.

Written part of the OGE in the Russian language in 2018

The written part of the exam is allocated 3 hours 55 minutes. During this time, a 9th grade graduate must complete 15 tasks, divided into 3 sections.

The first part of the test consists of a written presentation of the text listened to. The audio recording will play twice. Separately, the rules stipulate that during the initial audition the student has the right to make some notes on the draft. Then you are given 3 minutes, during which you need to understand what the examinee missed and what to pay attention to during the second listening. Next, the text recording is repeated. Then the student retells it in writing. The maximum number of assessment points for this stage of the exam is 7.

In the second part of the KIM - tasks from numbers 2 to 14, only a short answer is required based on the results of studying the proposed text. You can choose from the available answer options or formulate your own. Each correct answer is worth 1 point, and for all correct answers you can get 13 points.

In the third part, 3 topics for the essay will be identified. The student chooses one and presents his version of understanding of the topic. The maximum you can get for an essay is 9 points.

And for this block of tasks, the commission can add points if it considers that the student has demonstrated special skills in accuracy, literacy in expressing thoughts, and figurative speech. The maximum bonus is 10 points, which can result in a total of 39 points for the entire writing task.

What about on a five-point scale?

As we said above, there are no grades for the “Speaking” block; the result will only be expressed as a “pass” or “fail” verdict. To be considered a successful test taker, the student needs to score at least 8 points for this part of the test.

As for the written version of the exam, points are given here, their translation into the usual five-point grading system is as follows:

• 0-14 points- “two”, unsatisfactory result;
• 15-24 points correspond to the traditional “troika”;
• 25-33 points- the work was done well, with a “B”;
• 34-39 points they talk about the excellent preparation of a 9th grade graduate, this is a “five” rating.

How you prepare is how you pass

There is such a thing as linguistic flair, innate literacy. But there are few people endowed with such talent. Everyone else has to work hard to understand the structuring system of the language, its features, remember the rules and exceptions to them. And most importantly: learn to apply this knowledge in practice.

Preparing for the State Examination, many ninth-graders turn to the demo version of the State Examination in the Russian language of grade 9 in 2018 and other reference and training documentation and literature. Another option for productive preparation is to explore options exam papers previous years.

Those who work hard for a year before the exam, or even longer, usually do not encounter any particular difficulties in CMMs. But even if something goes wrong, there is a fallback option: retaking the State Examination Test in the fall.

Model "Student - computer"

The tasks will be presented on the monitor screen

The oral part in Russian will consist of three tasks. Each option consists of three tasks of a basic level of complexity, differing in the form of tasks. Assignments are assignments open type with a detailed answer.

Task 1 – reading aloud a short text of a popular science nature. Preparation time: 1.5 minutes.

In task 3 it is necessary to construct a coherent monologue statement on a specific topic based on a plan. Preparation time – 1 minute.

The total response time for one examinee (including preparation time) is 15 minutes.

Each subsequent task is issued after the completion of the previous task. The entire response time is audio and video recorded.

The total number of points for the entire work is 16 points.

The examinee receives test if he scored 9 or more points for completing the work.

Oral part. Task 1. Expressive reading of text aloud

Task 1 – reading aloud a short text of a popular science nature.

Expressive reading is one aspect of reading skill. Reading that correctly conveys the ideological content of a work of art or article.

Signs of expressive reading:

1) the ability to withstand pauses and make logical stresses that convey the author’s intent;

2) the ability to express the intonation of a question, statement, motivation, and also give the voice the necessary emotional tones;

3) clear diction, clear, pure pronunciation of sounds, sufficient volume, tempo.

The main condition for expressive reading is the conscious perception of the text.

It's simple! The main rule of expressive reading was put forward by V.I. Chernyshev at the beginning of the 20th century: “Read as you speak.” The main source of expressiveness in speech and reading is the speaker’s passion for the spoken text. Communication always occurs with a specific purpose: I want to convey the thoughts and feelings of the author of a work or article; I want the listeners to sympathize with the hero or appreciate his actions; I want to excite them, make them laugh, scare them, etc. The speaker must, as it were, perform a speech act, a “verbal action.”

Oral part of the OGE in the Russian language. Reading the text aloud. Text 1

Read the text aloud expressively. You have 1.5 minutes to prepare. Please note that reading the text out loud should not take more than 3 minutes.

Horses are carried among the snowdrifts. We gallop again up the mountain along a winding path; suddenly there was a sharp turn, and it was as if they had suddenly burst into the closed gate. I look around: I see Pushkin on the porch. There is no need to say what was happening in me then. I jump out of the sleigh and drag him into the room. We look at each other, kiss, remain silent! All this happened in a small space. This small room contained his canopy bed, a desk, a sofa, and a bookcase. Everything is a poetic mess. Pushkin seemed to me somewhat more serious than before, but still retained the same gaiety. He, like a child, was glad to see us. His former liveliness was evident in every memory. Outwardly he had changed little; he had only acquired sideburns. In the middle of the conversation, he suddenly asked me: what are they saying about him in St. Petersburg and Moscow? I answered him that his poems had gained popularity throughout Russia and, finally, that his relatives and friends loved him, sincerely wishing that his exile would end as soon as possible. (According to I. I. Pushchin. Notes about Pushkin)

So you can’t do this without serious preparation. The OGE in Russian is a mandatory exam that determines a student’s certification mark and allows him to enroll in a specialized humanities class.

However, among the students there are those who consider Russian not a very difficult subject. They believe that the language in which daily communication takes place, correspondence in in social networks, watching films and programs, you can pass without much difficulty. This opinion has failed many ninth-graders - the OGE in this subject includes many different tasks that reveal the ability to use literary language norms, as well as an understanding of the rules of vocabulary, grammar, syntax and punctuation.

Another innovation in the OGE is speaking, which causes difficulties for children who are not accustomed to correctly expressing their thoughts. Let's figure out what you should pay attention to when preparing for this exam, on what dates it will take place, and what changes can be introduced into the 2018 KIMs.

Demo version of OGE-2018

Dates of the OGE in Russian

According to the preliminary examination schedule, Russian will need to be taken on the following dates:

• early examination – 04/25/2018. Reserve day – 05/04/2018;
• The main date of the OGE is 05/29/2018. The reserve will become 06/19/2018;
• additional exam – 09/04/2018. The date indicated as a reserve is 09/17/2018.

Regulations and features of the exam

The specialized commission responsible for the development of Russian-language KIMs reported that there will be no changes to the tickets in 2018.

The student will be able to work with the CMM for 235 minutes. At this OGE, students will be able to use the spelling dictionary provided to them in the classroom. This concludes the list of subjects allowed in the Russian language exam. Do not take smartphones with you, do not take notes with rules and exceptions, do not try to bring a headset or mini-earphones, hoping to deceive observers and cheat. Any illegal actions will lead to only one result - removal from the class and a bad mark for the OGE.

Structural and content part of the ticket

KIMs in this subject are designed to evaluate the preparation of 9th grade graduates in everything related to the Russian language. Based on the results of this OGE, the commission draws conclusions about whether it is worth enrolling a particular student in a specialized linguistic class and issuing him a certificate of completion high school. Since 2017, the OGE includes written and oral parts, each of which is worth talking about separately.

Start preparing for the OGE in the fall to have time to work through all the material

Written part of the exam

When working with a ticket, schoolchildren will have to demonstrate their skills in using written language, as well as language skills of a linguistic, analytical and classification nature, understanding the rules of grammar, style, punctuation and spelling, and the ability to communicate with others through writing. The ticket consists of three parts containing 15 tasks different levels difficulties:

• the first part is one task in the form of presentation based on the listened text. The maximum score you can get for this part is 7. The audio file with the text will be scrolled twice. During the first listening, students can make notes on the rough sheet. Students will then be given 3 minutes to reflect on their notes and understand what aspects they missed while listening to the text. After this, the entry is re-installed. After this, ninth graders will have the opportunity to rewrite their thoughts on a blank form;
• the second part is tasks numbered 2 to 14, which require a short answer from the student. In this part, schoolchildren will have to formulate an answer independently or select and write it down from the list offered in KIM. The work is carried out on the basis of the text issued with the ticket. The correct answer to each task will earn you 1 point, the maximum number of points for the second part of the CIM is 13 points;
• the third part is task number 15. Students will be given 3 topics, among which they need to choose one and write an essay. The maximum points for the third part is 9.

Please note that in this OGE, points are given separately for the student’s competent and accurate speech in presentation and composition (maximum 10 points). In total, you can score 39 primary points for CMM.

Oral part of the Russian language exam (speaking)

9th grade students who will take the OGE in 2018 will have to take not only a written, but also an oral exam in the Russian language. According to some information, speaking will take place first, and it is this that will determine the student’s admission to the written part of the OGE. Speaking is aimed at identifying the communication skills of schoolchildren. It will test the ability to conduct a monologue and dialogue, the ability to read texts with intonation and emotional coloring, as well as retell what you read, justifying your statements.

In 2018, ninth-graders will not be able to get away with just a written exam. In addition to essays and tests, they will have to take speaking!

Structurally, the CMM consists of four parts, each of which is a separate task:

• The first task is reading a scientific journalistic fragment. Behind this part you can score 2 points;
• second task - the student will have to retell what he read, drawing on Additional information and commenting on your statements. This task can also earn you 2 points;
• the third task is a monologue on a chosen topic. It can be assessed with a maximum of 2 points;
• The fourth task is a dialogue with the examiner, who can award up to 3 points for the answer.

Compliance with literary language norms when completing the first and second tasks is assessed separately - here you can earn up to 2 points. The verbal presentation of the answer when working with tasks number three and four is scored another 3 points. The maximum primary score for speaking is 14.

Most likely, the conversation will offer texts that talk about life. Scores for the oral exam will not be converted into grades - the student receives either a pass or a failure. For successful completion speaking, according to preliminary information, you will have to score at least 50% of the initial points.

Converting points into marks for a certificate

The scale on which scores for the written part of the exam are converted into certification marks is as follows:

• from 0 to 14 points – a solid “two”;
• from 15 to 24 points – score “three”;
• from 25 to 33 points – score “four”. In this case, at least 4 points must be obtained for literacy. If less than 4 points are scored for literacy, the student is given a “satisfactory” grade;
• from 34 to 39 points – mark “five”. However, getting an A also requires meeting a certain condition: if a student received less than 6 points for literacy, he receives a “B”.

When assigning students to specialized linguistic classes, preference will be given to children who score 31 points or higher for the written part of the work.

How to prepare for the OGE in Russian?

Train yourself to write essays, and then passing the OGE will not cause you problems

The presence of an oral and written part of the exam means that students will have to work hard to master all types of language activities. Specialists of specialized commissions recommend that schoolchildren pay attention to the following points:

• repeat and practice all the rules and exceptions found in the Russian language school curriculum;
• hone the use of language norms by regularly writing dictations and presentations. When writing expositions, time yourself to teach yourself to select points in the allotted time and briefly write them down on a draft;
• write at least 10-15 essays on topics offered in KIMs of previous years. You will have to highlight the main problem, comment on it, show your skills in drawing analogies and knowledge of suitable quotes. Remember - the commission primarily evaluates understanding of the topic and ability to write, without being distracted from the author's thought. If you go aside or try to use general phrases, you risk getting 0 for your essay. Good essay you can write only if you spend a year reading classics of world and Russian literature and critical articles on the main works from the school curriculum;
• The oral part, as a rule, concerns a discussion of prominent Russian figures. Look interesting programs, read publications about the life and work of Yuri Gagarin, Tsiolkovsky, Pirogov, as well as other famous artists, writers and scientists. Retell what you read to your parents and friends to practice the skill of beautiful and competent oral speech;
• regularly read literary and journalistic texts out loud, working with intonation and stress.

Reveals a very important topic: how to prepare for the oral part of the OGE in the Russian language!

Ilya Repin, Pushkin at the Lyceum exam

There is no exam schedule yet next year, last year the oral part of the OGE in Russian was taken several weeks before Last call. They gave it to their teachers in their schools. How will it be this year? We'll see. But we cannot sit idly by.

What is being checked? Reading and ability to speak on a given topic. That's all. Simple, but it's only at first glance.

The first stage is reading the proposed text aloud. There are already many pitfalls hidden here. Reading aloud in last years not given enough attention in the system school education. Especially in high school. And the skill of reading aloud requires permanent job. Those who read aloud at about 170 words per minute will, of course, find it quite easy to complete the first task, but they should not overestimate their abilities. Pauses, stress, including logical ones, various spelling traps, intonation nuances - the Russian language is not only rich in all this, but also difficult. It's very easy to make a mistake. When preparing for this task, be sure to record your speech while reading on a voice recorder and listen to it. You will learn a lot of new things about yourself. And notice and eliminate your main mistakes. Learn to read expressively from masters of words... Or at least learn to read if by the end of the ninth grade you still have problems with reading.

Patrick Henry, Orator

The second task is based on the text you read. You are required to retell it using a statement from some famous person(usually a writer) on the topic. Knowledge and understanding of the text, the ability to construct a statement without logical, speech and factual errors are tested. In principle, everyone should be able to read and retell. In practice, by the ninth grade the skill was pretty neglected. The task is complicated by the fact that it is necessary to retell not a narrative, but a descriptive text. Less often - a text-reasoning, which is also not sugar.

Next, you are asked to choose one of three task cards: describe the phenomenon depicted in the photograph, tell about some an important event from your life or reflect on the proposed topic. In preparing a statement on a topic, one must rely on concrete questions. In fact, it helps to collect your thoughts, highlight the main thing, and not forget the essential. You can choose in advance a convenient type of statement for yourself and prepare for it, as most people do when preparing assignment No. 15 of the written part of the OGE in the Russian language. Some people find it more convenient to describe a picture, some prefer to talk about problems, while others have an eventful life and always have a plot to tell at the ready. I recommend recording your speech on a voice recorder, as you did in preparation for reading aloud. Of course, hearing an opinion about yourself from a teacher or tutor is useful, but you can and should listen to yourself.

Ivan Tikhy, Exam

The last task is the easiest: conversation on issues. After the examiner listens to your monologue on the topic indicated on the card you chose, he will ask you several questions about it. Your answer is a complete two-part extended sentence. In general, an oral interview is somewhat reminiscent of communicating with a foreigner. Imagine that the examiner is a foreigner, and you must explain everything to him clearly and correctly.

So, you complete 4 tasks and you can get the maximum for them:

1) expressive reading – 2 points;

2) retelling using a quote – 4 points;

3) monologue with a choice of text type: description, reasoning or story - 3 points;

4) conversation on the topic of the monologue – 2 points.

The points are summed up, and points for compliance with Russian language standards are added to the resulting amount. Up to 8 points! You need to score at least 8 points to pass. The maximum is 17. The final interview is not graded, but a pass on it is admission to the rest of the exams.

Last academic year, the oral part of the OGE in the Russian language was, as I already said, in April. Most likely this will be the case in 2019.

There is time - use it wisely!

Listen carefully to the advice of teachers and tutors. Don’t rely on chance, prepare in advance for all tasks. You can download a demo version of the oral interview and its evaluation criteria on the official FIPI website. This year's schedule and demos will be up there soon.

Good luck and success in passing your exams!

Oral part of the OGE in English in a new format was introduced in 2016. This is the computerized portion of the exam. That is, the examinee will perform tasks that will appear one by one on the computer screen. Answers are recorded on electronic media, and then will be checked by OGE experts. Communication with the examiner during the exam not provided. Therefore, you first need to familiarize yourself with the format of the oral part tasks. During preparation, you must learn to strictly follow the time frame allotted for completing each task.

Speaking Part

Approximate topics for tasks in section 5 (Speaking Part) according to FIPI

Communication takes place within the following areas of communication and approximate topics:

— social and everyday sphere of communication : communication in family and school, interpersonal relationships with friends and peers.

— socio-cultural sphere : leisure and hobbies of youth; countries of the language being studied; Mother country; outstanding people, their contribution to science and world culture; nature and environmental problems; healthy lifestyle.

— educational and labor sphere : the problem of choosing a profession and the role of a foreign language.

Instructions for performing the work

The oral part of the KIM OGE in English includes 3 tasks.

Exercise 1

Reading aloud a short text of a popular scientific nature.

Time to prepare – 1.5 minutes.

Adviсe:

• Read articles about the rules of reading and sounds in English. Remember them and apply them while completing tasks in the exam.
• Learn the rules of pauses, intonation and logical stress in English.

I suggest you watch a video with recommendations for preparing for Task 1 of the Oral Part of the Unified State Exam (grade 11). The tasks for the OGE and the Unified State Exam are almost identical - reading the text aloud. Therefore, the video will be useful for everyone who is preparing for the final certification in English.

Task 2

You are invited to accept participation in conditional dialogue-questioning: Answer six audio-recorded telephone survey questions.

Adviсe:

• Listen to English speech as often as possible, develop perception skills English speech aurally.
• Complete the tasks published on the FIPI website.
• Be sure to record your answers on a voice recorder to ensure you stay within the allotted response time. time – 40 seconds for each question. You will also be able to analyze your phonetic and grammatical errors made during the answer.

Attention!

Questions are asked only once!

The question text does not appear on the screen!

Taking notes during the exam is not allowed!

The introductory part of Task 2 is the same for different CMM options, with the exception of the sentence in which it will be indicated the topic of your conversation.

Important!

Do not press the button to move to the next question, even if you have answered more than short term, or did not answer the question at all. Wait for the announcer to say the next question.

From last year’s experience, I can say that when you clicked on the “NEXT” button, the transition was made not to the next question of Task 2, but directly to Task 3. Consequently, the student lost points on questions from Task 2 that were simply not heard.

Task 3

You need to build a coherent monologue on a specific topic based on a plan.

Time to prepare – 1.5 minutes.

Attention!!!

IN 2016 and 2017 Task 3 was accompanied by a photograph, which There was no need to describe t. It simply served as a visual reference for generating ideas for your monologue.

IN 2018 year Task 3 presented WITHOUT photos!

Your monologue must include introductory and closing phrases related to the topic of the statement. The total volume of the statement should be 10 – 12 sentences.

Your speech should be natural and spontaneous (without long sentences memorized from topics). To do this, use the following words and expressions in your answer:

• Well, ... - Well ...
• To tell the truth... - Honestly...
• To be honest... - To be honest...
• You know, ... - You know ...
• As far as I know, ... - As far as I know ...
• As far as I can see, ... - As far as I can tell ...

The ninth planet of the solar system was discovered not long ago. It happened in 1930. Scientists had been hunting for the planet for a long time. They had calculated its probable position but there was no proof that the planet really existed. It was too far away for the telescopes of that time to find it. It’s worth mentioning that the first photos of the planet were taken by a very young researcher. He was only twenty-four and had no formal education in astronomy. However he was deeply involved in the search for the ninth planet. The planet at the edge of the solar system was called Pluto, after the Roman god. The name for the planet was suggested by an 11-year-old British girl.

Electronic assistant: How old are you?

Student: I am 14 (15) years old .

Electronic assistant: How many times a week do you do sports?

Electronic assistant: What sport is the most popular with teenagers in your region?

Student: Well, I think volleyball is the most popular sport with teenagers in our region. Almost everyone knows the rules of this game. It can be played both indoors and outdoors. Volleyball competitions often take place in our region. And I am very proud that our men’s team “Belogorie” won the title of Russian Champion eight times.

Electronic assistant: What sports facilities are available in the place where you live?

S student: The thing is that I live in a small village that’s why there is a lack of sports facilities here. Nevertheless we have got a stadium /ˈsteɪdiəm/ and a new sports center where people can do different workouts, play football, volleyball and tennis. Also there are sports grounds near each school. Unfortunately we haven’t got a swimming pool in my settlement.

Electronic assistant: Why do you think it is important to keep fit?

Student: To my mind, the best way to keep fit is to do regular exercises, no matter what they are: jogging, yoga or riding a bike. Secondly, you should eat healthy food and drink lots of water. Last but not least, you should sleep enough.

Task 3 Listen to the model answer

(recorded by my student Oksana Pankova)

Nowadays lots of people enjoy taking pictures. Some of them are professional photographers, while others consider it as a hobby. (intro 2)

Actually, our life is full of bright events and unusual moments that’s why people take pictures to capture them. For example, weddings, the birth of a child, visits to different countries, starting or leaving school are much photographed /ˈfəʊtəɡrɑːf/. (2)

Taking pictures is more popular today because practically everyone has a camera built in the cell phone. To be honest, digital cameras are very easy to operate. It’s great that you can look through your snapshot immediately and if you don’t like it, you can delete it and take another one. In the past most people could not even afford [əˈfɔːd] a camera. Moreover, the process of taking pictures and printing them was very hard (difficult, time-consuming). (5)

As for me, I am fond of photography and have got a professional camera. The best photo I have ever taken is the photo of the Eiffel [´aifəl] Tower which is the symbol of Paris. I did it three years ago during my summer holiday. (3)

All in all, I should say that people take pictures to remember the best moments of their life forever. (final phrase 1)

Here are real photos of our trip to Europe in 2014.
