Week 15 review

A short story, ten questions across the whole week, extra practice from earlier weeks, your words and your can-do list. About 60 minutes.

1Story of the week 15 minutes

Maria's exam, from the long hours to the result. Watch the verb pairs at work.

In the exam every text is played once: try the story by ear first.

Экзамен (The exam)

Мария учится в университете на факультете экономики. Ей нравятся математика и экономика.

Вчера у неё был экзамен. Сначала она долго решала задачи, а потом решила все.

Когда она написала последний ответ, преподаватель сказал: «Очень хорошо!» Мария сдала экзамен. Вечером она будет отдыхать.

Week 15 on one plate. Lesson 29, Monday: читать, прочитать; писать, написать; Я сдал экзамен, I passed the exam; Вчера я долго решал задачу, yesterday I worked on the problem for a long time. Lesson 30, Thursday: Когда я читал, я слушал музыку, while I was reading I listened to music; Когда я прочитал книгу, я написал письмо, when I had finished the book I wrote a letter; Я прочитаю книгу завтра, I'll finish the book tomorrow; Я должен выучить слова, I must learn the words.
