LISTENING TRAINING FOR FOREIGN ENGINEERING STUDENTS

This article is devoted to the problem of teaching speech activity at the lessons of Russian as a foreign language in the study of specialized disciplines to foreign students in the framework of pre-University training. The most difficult in the process of learning the Russian language for foreign representatives is such an aspect of speech activity as listening. The perception of the text orally complicated scientific style of presentation of educational material, as well as specialized vocabulary. In studying this problem, we were guided by the following methods: observation, analysis, testing, self-observation, oral and written surveys, as well as longitudinal method. Based on the results we came to the conclusion that foreign students of pre-University training are not always in a state of correct perception of the listened text. This observation is due, firstly, to the speed of the teacher's speech, and secondly, the choice of the degree of complexity of educational and scientific material. As part of the study, foreign students participated in a comparative type of experiment. The audit revealed that the majority of students successfully coped with the task of the closed type (choose the right answer) on the material of the audit. The analysis of open-type tests has convinced us of a partial lack of skills of perception of oral speech. Based on the above, we were convinced of the need to synthesize listening tasks in the course of work with educational and scientific texts in Russian.
