В заданиях централизованного тестирования проверяется зна-
ние культуры языка: особенности приветствий, прощаний, выражения благодарности и т. п. К примеру, русское «спасибо – пожалуйста» в английском языке звучит не «thank you – please», а «thank
you – you’re welcome», а «ни пуха, ни пера – к черту» как «break a
leg – thank you». Для успешного выполнения заданий на соотнесе-
ние реплик полезно повторить стандартные фразы, используемые
в общении. Также вам понадобится расположить реплики так,
чтобы получился связный диалог, и ответить на вопрос о содержании диалога, выбрав один из предложенных вариантов ответа.
